At Riverside met my old friend W.
J. Mcintyre. Years ago he was the agent
of the government at the seal islands.
He staid there with his family for years
among the Aleut Indians and studied the
whole seal industry. He made a long
and careful report, showing how the gov
eminent might with thorough, careful
supervision kill 100, 900 seals per year and
not damage the plant. This report took
all his spare time while there. He re-
turned in fur garments, he and his wife
and little girl, and with head of whisk-
ers that people came hundred Of miles
to see.
The New York press was eager to get
some of the matter contained in his re-
port, but he said, mo, 1t belongs to the
government" So. although he was not
rich, he was loyal. He took the report
to his chief and offered 1t to him.
The chief, who is now no more, hay
ing been ere this judged for his crooked
ness. said hsughtily to Captain McIn-
tyre: When the government wants

morning" Captain Mcintyre, who was
redheaded then and did not know that
cabinet officers sometimes stood In with
a seal killing syndicate, threw the care

and began the practice Of law. His ad-
vice would, il followed, have saved all

AMONG THE ORANGES AND LEMONS.
March.
The contrast between Maine and south
ern California as rival winter resorts is
very great. Here the orange Is picked
during the entire year, and It is esti-
mated that enough oranges fall off and
are plowed under as fertilizers each year
to supply the new state of Wyoming
completely the year round.
II is estimated that established orange
orchards Of a good quality yield 10 per
cent on the investment. OF course poor
brands of oranges, just like i'll chosen
orchards Of poor, miserable apples, yield
much less. A young orchard not only
does this after it is in bearing, but in
creases very greatly In value each year.

Dinner Etiquette.

On elegant tables each plate is accom-
panied by two large silver knives, small
silver knife and fork for fish, a small fork
for oysters, tablespoon for soup and
three large forks. The napkin is folded
In the center with piece Of bread upon
it. AS the courses are served the knives
and forks and spoons that have been used
are removed with the plate. Fish should
be eaten with a silver fork, and If full Of
bones needs the use Of the knife as well.
For sweetbreads, outlets, roast beef, ETC.,
the knife is also necessary, but for Gro
quotes, rissoles, bondries la Refine, tim
bales and dishes of that class the fork is
required.
When dessert is reached, everything
save the tablecloth and floral decora-
tons are removed. A dessert plate with
a small silver spoon, dessert spoon and
fork, and sometimes combination fork
and spoon for ices is placed before each
guest Pears and apples are peeled with
a silver knife, cut In quarters and eaten
with the fingers. Grapes should be eaten
from behind the half closed hand, the
stones and skins falling into the fingers
unobserved, and thence to the plate.
Oranges are eaten with spoon. Salad
is eaten with fork, but needs knife
TO cut large leaves that have not been
divided before serving. Cheese is eaten
with fork, though soft cheeses are
spread on bit of cracker or bread and
conveyed TO the mouth by the fingers.
Saltcellars are now placed at each plate,
and 1t is not improper to take salt with
the knife.
The small after dinner coffee spoon Is
used with the tiny cups of the black
beverage that concludes all dinners. The
spoon is the most dangerous implement
of the dinner, so far as Its correct usage
Is concerned. Soup lis always taken from
the side and is eaten noiselessly. To push
the spoon into the mouth either end first
or otherwise is decidedly vulgar.
