Tricoupis and His Dog.

M. Tricoupis, who may be regarded as
the foremost statesmen in King Georges
dominions, and who has repeatedly held
the office of premier, is distinguished
for the store set by him on canine friend
ship. One day when he was crossing
from the Piraus to Constantinople on
board an English steamer, his dog fell
overheard. Tricoupis, who was not in
office at the time and stranger to the
captain. entreated the latter to stop the
vessel in order that he might rescue the
hound.
''Impossible!" replied the Englishman.
"My orders are very strict. I dare not
stop, even were it man instead of a
dog drowning"
"Goodr' laconically answered the
Greek, and at the same time he sprang
over the ships side and SWAN toward
his dog, although sharks abound in those
waters. The sequel may be guessed.
The English captain could not resist
such spectacle of pluck, and in spite
of his strict orders to the contrary he
stopped the ship and saved both man
and dog.-Nev- Vo~l- T-ihrnn.

Snuire OsbaIdestone,s Ride.

Squire Osbaldestone's undertaking to
ride 200 miles in 10 hours, which he ac-
complished so successfully on Nov. 5,
1881, is one Of the most remarkable feats
of endurance in the saddle and has the
merit of freedom from cruelty The
squire rode his race on the Newmarket
race course, changing his horse every
fourth mile.
Mr.. Osbaldestone used 16 horses for
his task and rode standing in his stir
rups like a jockey, while he kept his
mount at full speed from start to finish
of its four mile heat, having quite a
''set to" with his pacemaker at the end
Of each. The squire was a hardy man
and in good training, so suffered no bad
effects from his exertions. Chambers

How to Cure a Cold.

.Aln,ost everybody has remedy for
a Geld, which he is ever ready to
recommend to others after detailing
his own experience.
The Boston Josuual Of Commerce
qaotes from medical writer some
advice on this subject which seems to
be more than ordinarily useful.
When onebecomes chilled, or takes
cold the mouths Of mvriadS of LITTLE
sweat glands are suddenly closed, and
the impurities which Should pass off
through the skin are forced back at
the interior Of the body, vitiating the
blood ard putting extra work on the
lungs and other rinternal organs. Juss
beneath the surface of the skin, all
ovel the body, there is network OF
minute blood vessels, finer than the
finest lace When one is chilled the
blood is forced from these capillary
vessels into one or more OF tl.e inter
aal organs, producing inflammation
or congestion, and thus often causing
diseases dangerous to life. The time
70 treat cold is at the earliest pos
sible moment after You have taken
it. And your prime object should be
to restore the perspiration and the
capillary circulation. AS soon, then,
as YOU :eel that you have taken cold
have good fire in your bedroom.
Put Your feet into hot water, as hot
as can be borne, and containing a
tablespoonful of mustard. Have 1t
in vessel so deep that the water
will come up well toward the knees.
Throw a blanket over the whole to
prevent rapid evaporation and cool
inc. In from five to ten minutes
take the feet ont, wipe them dry, and
oct into bed on which there are two
extra blankets. Just before or alter
getting into bed drink large glass
OF lemonade as hot as possible, or a
class OF hot water containing tea
spoonful Of cream OF tartar, with a
a little sugar if desired. Should
there be pain in the chest, side or
back. indicating pleurisy or pneumo-
MIA, dip small towel in cold water
and wiring it as dry as possible. Fold
the towel so that it will cover lit
tie more surface than is affected by
the pain. Cover this with piece OF
flannel, and both with oiled silk, or
better, with oiled linen now wind a
strip of flannel foot wide several
times around the chest. The heat
of the body will warm the towel
almost Immediately, the oiled linen
and flannel will retain the heat aud
moisture, and, steaming the part.
will generally cause the pain to dis.
appear. Should there be pain OF
soreness in the throat, you should
treat in similar manner with wet
compress and fannek bandage. Eat
sparingly OF plain, simple food
Baked apples and other fruit, brede
and butter, bread and milk, mill
toast, baked potatoes raw Oysters
may be. eaten. By following the
s above directions inteligently ane
d faithfully you viii ordinarily CHECK
the progress Of the cold and prevent
serious, possibly fatal, illness.

Winter silk petticoats are beauties
and have adapted themselves to cold

warmth with their prettiness. This
has been managed by lining them
with flannel. Delightful color COM
binations are produced thus: For
example, a. striped shot-silk of blue,
fawn and yellow is lined with blue
flannel. The edge has ruffle SINH

of cord stitched between the outside
and lining. A small woven cord
sewed along the edge prevents the
skirt from wearing Quilted skirts

from the fabric spoken of above, and

Approximately, 425 House aud %;
Senate bills and Joint Resolutions
became laws, making $50 Acts put
on the statute books as the result OF
the work of Congress. A majority
of these measures were of interest
only to individuals or localities, being
for the relief of citizens, for the
bridging of streams, for the District
of Columbia, for rights of way, etc.
An unusual proportion of claims bills
were for the relief of Southern men.
The House passed, in round num-
bers, 624 bills, of which 200 failed
of passage in the Senate, and in the
neighborhood of 623 bills passed by
the Senate failed in the House, in
cluding long list of public building
bills, many private pension bills and
other measures including increased
expenditures.
Three bills were vetoed by the
President, viz: To refer the McGar-
rahan claim to the Court OF Claims
Ga second McGarrahan bill failing OF
action in the House), to amend the
Court of Appeals Act, and in rela-
ton to marshals in United States
Courts in Alabama. This last bill
became law by passage over the
veto, Senator Hoar stating that it
had been vetoed through misunder-
standing of its provisions.
The President subjected three bills
to a pocket veto. and Two other
bills failed of engrossment in time
for presentation to him. All were
of comparatively small Importance
Among the measures of import
ance which failed to get the endorse
ment of either House were bills for
the creation of sub-treasury sys-
TEN; for an extensi, system OF for
tifcations; for a uniform system of
bankruptcy; for taxation of Federal
notes and repeal of the tax on State
banks; to transfer the revenue cut
ter service to the navy; for an alco-
hollc liquor commission constitu-
tional amendments making the Pre-
sident ineligible to reelection, chang
ing the time of the meeting of Con-
gress and for woman suffrage; irri-
tation and arid lands bill the Mica
ragua Canal bill; to permit railroad
pooling (beaten on a test vote; to +
establish postal savings banks; for
IN income tax; to refund the cotton

Act; to repeal the Federal election
