and in this am disposed to think all will
agree. We carried in our packs one extra
pair of smoked glasses each. a,,,-ug-,
No item of ski outfit is of more import
ance than the smoked glass goggles. for
without them the glare of the sun on the
intense white of the sno W soon causes
snow-blindn ess, which units man for
travel almost at once, to say nothing of the
pain it causes to the eyes. When Fremont
was oven taken by winter in the Rockies one
of the chief causes of disabling of his COM
mand was the blindness created by this
glering reflection of the snow. The noun
tain 1emedy is hot cloths applied to the
eyes and the mountain preventive measure
is piece of buckskin bound across the
eyes, with sll is cut through Tor eye aper-
lures. 1t alleviates the glare to blacken the
sides of the nose and tie portion of the face
below the eyes with charcoal. Nothing is
SO good as the darkened glasses, however.
and he is unlucky skiman who loses or
breaks this valuable part of his outfit. One
of our men did this very thing and in oonse-
quence he was disabled and had to be left
out of our calculations for nearly half of
the trip.
We carried in our war bags small roll of
surgical bandages for use in case of brok-
en- bone stained joint, either of which
may happen to the ski runner on such a
journey as the one before US. Also we had
half-dozen small screws with which to
mend broken ski should so lamentable
an accident as that befall US. In country
where one could not travel half-mile in a
day with out his skis and where it would be
altogether impossible for even the most will
ing comrade to help him along, broken
ski is dangerous bit of misfortune. Yet
men have broken their skis and been re-
sourcef enough to get out safe. One good
ski an piece is far better than no ski at
all, and even when both skis have been lost
by sliding away from their owner down a
mountain side a good mountain man has
been known to get makeshift out o a
pine tree with an ak. Fremont seems to
have madeno use of the ski idea in his stIug-

The Dwarf Fortuno Teller.

A young lady's hands are to be put
into a child's socks and little shoes.
She is to disguise her face as eifectuaIly
as possible. A piece of black sticking
plaster put over ono of the front teeth
or over both will aid to do this, and a
little face powder on the face, with a
few lines drawn under the eyes and at
the corners Of them and the mouth, will
prove very etfectual.
Then she puts on a child's skirt
around her neck long enough to reach
to her hands, which are disguised as
feet, with shawl to cover the upper
part of her waist and bonnet, cap or
hood for her head, and stands in win
dow where there are draperies or an
arched recess or between portieres, and
smaller girl stands behind her and
passes her arms in front to supply those
OF the young lady.
A table is placed in front of them,
upon which the young lady rests her
hands dressed In shoes.
The little girl behind her supplies, as
we have said, arms and hands to the
figure, and if well managed when the
visitors are summoned ITO sec the dwarf

by the Illusion OF the pygmy apparently
standing on the table. The dwarf is
expected to be funny enough in her for

A STRANGE KENTUCKY TALE.

A Remarkable Transformation In this
Grave Reported From Fleming County.
A Vanceburg correspondent sends out
this remarkable story: 'sDr G. H. Dyer,
who lived in Fleming county, near tho
Lewis county line, and who was well
known throughout this section of the
state as very noted root and herb doc
tor, died some six weeks ago and was
buried at his home near Muse Mills,
Fleming county. A few days ago pack
of hungry dogs were discovered digging
with might and main in the doctors
grave. They were driven away, but re-
turned as soon as the men left and re-
sumed their digging and bowling.
"The friends of the deceased doctor,
becoming anxious to know just what the
dogs were after. concluded to take the
body up. They did SO, but what was
their astonishment when on opening the
coffin they found not the body of the
venerable doctor, but 300 pound hog
nicely rolled up in winding sheet, wait
ing for Gabriel to toot his horn, when he
would walk out and claim the doctors
share in the glories that await him at the
final resurrection of the just. Tho con-
clusion of the natives as to how this
transformation came about is that as the
doctor was not above suspicion from a
moral standpoint the Lord had changed
his mortal remains into those of q hog.
The case is very remarkable one view
ed from any standpoint. louisville
