Getting Along in the World.

"No man with the least bit of enter
prise need go broke long in this country"
said Alonzo Gentry, member of the
Reminiscence club, which was holding a
seance at the Lindell. "In 1886 was
out with comedy company in western
Iowa. Business was bad, the ghost re-
fused to peregrinate, and finally stony
hearted boniface attached our baggage
and props. There were twelve Of us, and
not the price of round in the party. /

5000 inhabitants. There pawned
ring for two dollars, and with this cash
capital we started to work our way back
to the Rialto. We invested fifty cents IN
cocktails, ten cents in tobacco and ten
cents in wire. The heavy villain took
the latter up to our room-for we put up
at the best hotel-and cut it into short
pieces, which we twisted into fantastic
shapes.
'Then he started out and made house
to house canvass. selling his great nven-
ton for tightening labor. He actually
made the women believe that one of those
wires hung on the wheel Of sewing
machine would increase the speed and
tighten the labor of neading. He sold
them at fifty cents apiece, and as he was
a good talKer he fairly coined money.
We left Atlantic two days later with a
receipted hotel bill and tickets to Chi
cago among our assets. Perhaps it wasn't
exactly in conformity with the most ap.
proved code of ethics, but when thought
of the tie counting it saved me hadn't
the heart to quarrel with him. st.

The Toy of Alaska Children.


1.-THE nati-es of Alaska may not suffer
from a surfeit of civilization, said James
Fl. Wardell of Fort Wrangell, Alaska,
at the Lindell, ''but there are some
things in which they excel, notably in
the way of children's toys. Every baby
In Fort Wrange1 has q plaything that
would be the envy and admiration OF
any child in America. It is an odd and
curious contrivance-rathera mixture of
q jumping jack and a rattle. It is made
of piece Of ivory or walrus tooth. tits
about inches long and about inch in
diameter. A hole is bored in it from one
end only. In this there is rod with q
crown shaped top, surmounted by a
small rubber ball.
ttAt the bottom of the rod Is a stout
though small leather string, which passes
through hole in the side of the hollow
walrus tooth. When the child pulls the
string, the rod, crown and ball jump
nearly out of the tooth. The length Of
the string prevents its leaving the piece
entirely Then, when the string is loos-
ened, they clatter down with rafting
sound and strike the bottom with a chug
that fills the heart of the budding Es-
kimo witk glee. It is very funny de
sign for rartler, and there is nothing
like it in America. Il is simple, but
popular, and the man who first struck
the idea is getting rich, although his
scheme is not patented. "-Exchange.

CELEBRATION AT ROCKY HOCK.

Never was Declaration of Indipend-
ence celebrated with more zest by
old and young. than the anniversary
OF the present erea 1898. Heretofore
our country people migrated to town
in great numbers, to see and hear
what is to be done on the 4th Of July,
and 40 doubt the small boy in happy
anticipation quickens his step to accel-
crate the work sufficient for him to
gam high holiday at that time. But
on yesterday the tactics were 30 turn
ed that not only the farmers and their
boys could have a hne time, but
mothers and daughters and little roll
licking mites Of children all had gala
day, such as will live green in our
memories for ages to come. At the
residence Of our highly esteemed
brother w. B. FELTON,, crowd began
to gather quite early, until the good
mans premises was nearly covered
with vehicles. horses and people. The
Chowan F. A. Band discoursed sweet
music, to the delight and enjoyment
Of all, and many pretty lass was
treated with delightful iced drinks Of
lemonade and milk shake. At IL
O'Clock the crowd was called to order
and led in prayer BY Rev. Josephus
finch who offered noble prayer in
behalf Of our country to the great
giver OF all good. He then introduced
W. B. Felten, who proved himself to
be an orator worthy of the occasion.
And before his speech was ended
everyone felt it was good to be there.
His speech was calculated to enlight"
en- the youth of orr district and tickle
the ears of advanced age, covering
scope from early colonial troubles
including Westinghouse merits and
the wherefore's Of the Declaration of
Independence. Mr.. FELTON, could not
fail to interest his auditors. Long may
it lodge in the minds Of his hearers
Then followed a speech BY our young
Divine George VI, White. He went
back to the discovery of this country
by Columbus. Touching upon her
progress as nation, her improve
nents. her intelligence, her christianity
&c. Lastly touching, lovingly though
sadly, upon his native state, praising
gloriously her resources of wealth but
deploring sadly her lack of education.
We JOIN him heartily in anticipating
Cardinals future fame. The Band
gave us rousing cheer, then the peo-
pie repaired to the table which was
bount; fully spread with everything
good. In the afternoon We had two
speeches. One by Nr. B. L. Evans.
which tended to draw farmers in a
closer alliance for their mutual benefit.
The other by Rev. J. lynch which

after hearing that speech. Suffice tito

To Remove Tattoo Marks.

There have been many operations
and applications recommended for the
removal of these disfgurements, but
most of them are either very painful
or entirely unsuccessful in achieving
the result desired. A new proceeding
is recommended by Paschkis, who
would remove the tattooing or pig
mentation of the skin by a sort of coun-
ter tattooing The remover used by
him has been baryta white, stained
to the color Of the surrounding skin
by the proper admixture of browns
and reds. An artist with a good eye for
colors would be successful in this oper-
alton. A method described in the
Pharmaceutical Era involves a new
principle, VIZ: The digestion of the
simultaneous pigments by papoid. The
tattooed part is well washed with soap
and water, a bunch of six or eight
cambria needles bound together with
silk thread is dipped in glycerole of
papoid and driven with a sharp blow
into the tatooed part. This is repeated
over the entire stain and must be
thorough to be effective, and peculiar
ity of the method is said to be that
it causes no inlammatory reaction. The
digestive principle of the papoid is
dissemination about the deposit of pig
ment, thus iberating it, a portion is
absorbed in a finely divided state Of the
lymphatics, another part probably finds
it's way into the upper layers of the
epidermis and close to the surface,
and in this manner the pigment disap.
