RED AND BLACK.
Erin Managed to Get the Last Word, but
Afric;s Won the Laugh.

AfTic:s Won the Laugh.
Rather an amusing scene occurred
in Third avenue IL train recently.
The cars were comfortably filled,
with one vacant seat opposite mine.
This was beside very large and
stout Irish woman, who had her nose
in the air as if seeking to scent a
disturbance. She was rather too OPP
ulent of flesh to be satisfied with one
seat, so much of her hung over into
the next.
At Twenty eighth street several
passengers entered, and among them
the blacklist colored woman that |
ever saw outside of a minstrel hall.
She was of rather a good size her
self and as she pumped down in the
before mentioned vacancy she must
have severely rubbed the avoirdu-
pois of her Milesian neighbor
The latter drew in few handfuls
Of flesh and said, with very red
face and in a scornful voice:
Say, go little aisy, will you"
Did you address me, madam
queried the offender in very polite
tone.
''Yis, l addressed you, twas the in
dignant response. "Ye look like a
ton av coal, but We naydn't sit down
Ike one"
who are you insultin? Am l re-
sponsible for my color"
Maybe not, but We want to be a
little careful the way We throw your
self around where there's white PEG
pie"
This was too much for Dinah. a
"Sho', woman, you don't call your
self white? Why, youse red"
The roar that greeted this brought
the Erinite to her feet.
I think there would have been {
battle then ana there if II guard mac
not stepped between them.
IF you two women don't quit, he
said roughly, 'Ill call an officer anC
have you both run in"
This quoted them, but the Irish
woman would not resume her seat.
She stood until the train reached
Eightyninth street, where she made
her exit.
AS she stepped onto the platform
and just as the train was starting
she poked her head in at the window
behind me- shouted "Nagur" at the
top of her lungs and walked down
the steps in triumph.-New York

HOW TO RAISE TURKEYS.

Young turkey hens lay as well as
any, but the gobblers should be two or
three years old and of a different
breed. If you intend to set the eggs
under hen do so as soon as you have
nine or ten of them, not more than
ten. When the turkey gets ready to
sit break her up and she will lay an
other dozen eggs. Sprinkle sulphur
in the nests and on the hen every week
to kill lice and nits. During the last
week of sitting sprinkle the eggs three
times with warm water. When the
turkeys are twenty-four or thlrty-slx
hours old put them under large coop
on the dry grass. Make pen of three
ten or -twelve-foot boards, so that it
can easily be moved, which should be
done every morning, unless the ground
is wet. / lay a wide board where l
want to put the coop next time, and
then the ground is always dry. Wet
places, dirty coops and lice are death
to turkeys. Feed the young ones with
chopped hard-boiled eggs and bread
and milk for few days, then with
sour milk curd mixed with wheat mid
ding. Never use cornmeal. Three
times a week crumble a handful of egg
shells to keep the crop from getting
hard. When they are six or eight
weeks old give some pounded earthen-
ware or oystershells regularly. These
take the place of gravel, which they
don't like, and should be fed every
other day. If the crops get hard, give
eggshells and lard at once or they will
die If any begin to dump around,
give one part black pepper and three
parts lard three or four times a day

GEESE AND DUCKS ON THE FARM

Are not very largely bred upon farms
in comparison with the number of our
land poultry, and yet they are both
profitable and a delight to the eye.
While liberal water privileges are use
full where geese and ducks are kept.
they are by no means essential, as
these birds will do we'll with no more
than enough water for drinking pur-
poses. Plenty of grass and good pas
ture are, however, very needful, as
geese are as truly grazing stock as
horses, sheep or cattle. When clover
and other nutritious fodder abound
litsle or no grain is required, and geese
may be reared very cheaply. The
duck is a heavy feeder, but not over
particular, so that almost any farm
waste may be used Table leavings,
small potatoes, beet and turnip leaves
in short, anything and everything
at all eatable the duck will consume
and make return for same in goodly
number Of large, rich eggs. 1t is quite
remarkable how duck will lay. She
begins as early as February and lays
every day for three or four months
with fewrespites, Toulouse and Emb-
den are by far the best breeds of geese,
and the Pekin is queen Of ducks.
Hatch both geese and duck eggs under
hens, as the geese make clumsy
mothers and the ducks cannot be re-
lied on for Matching. Country Gen

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
It's excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
ative; efectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup Of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being we'll informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

Traits of Turkish NOmadS.

The Yuruks, indeed, assert that hu-
man souls return into the bodies Of
animals, and that the spirits of the
latter take also human form and APP
pear at determined epochs. This Is
certainly the reason they are so kind
to animals. NJ. Elisee Reclus says
that a Yuruk loves his horse as much
as his family. The horses have their
place under the tent. and it is not I'M
common to see them warmly wrapped
in magnificent robe when the Yuruk
and his children are covered with
rags. Some other customs attest also
a pagan origin; in the Orient every
body knows that the Yuruks worship
certa in trees and rocks. These facts
yield sufficient evidence that mono
theism is by no means the essential
dogma Of their religion.
Among the qualities possessed by the
Yuruk. hospitality is, no doubt, promi-
nent. Deprived, by the very influence
Of his adventurous life, of all the fierce
instincts which characterize the Turk
omans; restricted, by his occupations,
to the woods, the plains, or the noun
tains; constantly exposed to the in
clemency of the seasons, to dangers
and enemies of all kinds, the Yuruk
has conceived a generous and noble
idea of hospitality, and he practices it
with disinterestedness and pleasure.
His tent, whether in his presence or in
his absence, is always open to the
traveller, and food and drink in abund-
ance are given him. The tents of the
Yuruks are square, and made Of sort
of thick black wooden cloth.
Aside from the information I have
given here, nothing precise is known
of their private life. For instance, no
body ever knew what became of their
dead, as no one has ever seen a GENE
terry. All [ am able to say is that the
body of the deceased is placed on a
black mule, destined exclusively for
that use, and thus carried to a noun
tain. There, [ am not aware whether
it is cremated or buried; but, as |
was told that they also take a sheaf of
frewood, it is safe to believe that Gre
nation takes rlace.-Popular Science

4 RECIPE FOR HARNESS DRESSING.

ANY one can make an excellent har-
ness dressing, as follows: One gallon
of neat's-foot oil, two pounds of bay
berry tallow, two pounds beeswax,
two pounds beef tallow. Put the above
in a kettle over a moderate fire When
thoroughly dissolved add two quarts
of castor oil, then while on the fire
stir in one ounce of fine lampblack.
Mix thoroughly while warm, and strain
through cloth to remove any coarse
particles aud the sediment. When cool
it will be ready for use, and you will
have as good if not better article OF
harness dressing than you can pur-
chase. Besides, the castor oil in it
will prevent rats and mice gnawing the
harness. New York Sun.

The Vegetarian Theory.

Vegetarians say Il Is a popular fall
lacv that meat Is needed for strength.
One prominent exponent of the faith
saws il is a fact that the strongest AM
mails in the world are vegetarian and
not carnivorous. II Is the ferocity of
the lion rather than his strength that
makes him formidable. An elephant
is a match for several lions, and Is a
vegetarian. The animals with most
speed and endurance-the horse, the
reindeer, the antelope and others-are
also vegetarians. Dog trainers, says
the authority, always feed their trick
animals on strict vegetarian diet, and

COMBINING COWS TO THE STABLE.


Some things are necessary for the
welfare of an animal besides food.
Certain wastes are to be provided for.
All that an animal needs to sustain life
and make a certain growth is not
sufficient for health. The digestive
organs cannot work healthfully with
out surplus that must be elected as
waste. No one can make ration that
will keep an animal living without
allowing for the wastes. And there
must be a certain waste of heat, and
this is got rid of by exercise. Heat
confined to the system is as injurious
and as productive of disease, as food
confined in the bowels. Thus cold is
refreshing to every animal to a certain
extent, and to keep a COW shut up In a
warm stable, while it may save food,
or increase the yield of milk, will in
evitably, in the end, be productive Of
disease in some form or other. And
with this comes the equivalent of the
food saved, which is inevitable loss.
All the skill of man cannot get over a
natural law, the violation of which
brings it's recompense IN time. -Ameri-
can Agriculturist.
