Coughing.

'"Thclo IS nothing so irritable to a
cough as q cough" Constant coughing
is precisely like scratching u wound on
tho outside of the body. So long as 1t is
continued the wound will not heal Let
person, when tempted to cough, draw
q long breath and hold it until it warns
and soothcs every air cell, and benefit
will soon DO received from this process
The explanation simply is, the nitrogen

have often been on fishing eXpedi-
ton and found myself without cork
screw, with bottle of wine or ale Sc
cnrcly corked The primitive plan of
breaking off the neck with piece of
rock is very dangerous and sometimes
cracks the entire bottle and wastes the
precious fluid The other day saw
number of briclllayers trying to open q
bottle of alc at the dinner hour. After
they had scoopcd ut the cork with their
jackknivcs one of them took piece of
twinc, wound it around the neck twice,
and then for two or three minutes
sawed the bottle with it. Some water
was then thrown Oh the heated glass,
and it cracked instantly, enabling the
expert to break off the neck with his

Chicken and Diamonds.

Among her many wonderful accom-
plishments the charming and versatile
actress, Miss Lillian Lewis, possesses one
which aStonishcd the natives at the City
hotel beyond measure. She showed them
how to eat broiled chicken with the aid
OF the fingers and wear eight diamond
rings with perfect ease, grace and safety
at one and the same time On her left
hand she Wore five enormous sparklcs,
one on each finger and another ON the
thumb, while on the right only three
splendid solitaircs shonc with dazzling
brilliancy. The well Drowned chicken
was taken daintily between the tips Of
the finger and thumb of each hand, and
"a the delicious morscls were carefully
removed from the bones and disappear
ed the diamonds appeared to the great
est advantage. 1t was without doubt the
most remarkable aggregation of broilod
chicken and diamonds that ever struck
Shreveport dining room. 1t was tho
richest and most dazzling astronomical
feat ever witnessed in these parts.

Mr.. Godfrey Dragc, i'll the course of

The "Shouyalilli, who have their

notorious of these beggars. They fire.

of their homes and giving q graphic
account of tho fire At other times they
go out singly and beg for aims, pretend

placards round their nocks testifying to
their intlrmity. They travel OH foot to
the Don and frequently return with u
cart and one if not moro horses.
Tho district of Soudogda, which IS
one of the most unfcrtilo parts of Euro
pcan Russia, is another headquarters of
tho beggir army. AS soon as field work
is over i'll the autumn whole Villages
organize themselves into artels and start
out to beg. The whole population of the
village of Marinin live by means of
begging. Cripplcs and blind persons are

The example of the Soudogda beggars
has been followed in other localities,
especially i'll tho governments of Kos

group Of villages where girls and women
earn their livelihood by begging. Some

of feet .. II inches Next on the list
como the males Of all classes in the
United States, and n minute fraction

In other European countries the average
