proper,ie. OF Vegetables.

An eminent physician who has been
investigating the properties OF the diff
ferent vegetables, announces that a
diet OF carrots ameliorstes harshness
OF character and reduces nervous ir-
ritability peas create fatty tissure and
encourage joyousness, while turnips
have just the opposite effect. Celery
taken in excess causes eye trouble,
while cabbage is beneficial in pulmon-
airy ailments, and lettuce aids as sed-
ative, owing to the opium contained in
its milky juice, which keeps the skin
clear and fresh. Red beets are blood
producing and will add plumpness
to the thinnest form, providing they
are boiled tender.

a Clever Trick.

The manager OF local brewery was
presented with . sample bottle OF fine
old whisky yesterday. He placed ii on
his desk and went out. The head book
keeper saw IL aud his mouth wstered, so
he poured the whisky into his empty
flask and filled the managers bottle up
with colored beer. The cashier saw the
bookkeeper put bottle Of whisky in his
drawer, so at lunch time be poured il
into his empty flask and filed the man
ayers bottle up with colored beer. The
shipping clerk had seen Gil Of the differ
ent thefts. so he quietly stole the CASH
ier's bottle. drank the whisky with the
porter and re6lled his bottle with the
colored beer. That evening the book
keeper waited till the manager had gone
with his bottle aud then with q smile
took his own out Of the drawer and de-
parted. Then the cashier, with laugh
on both, slipped his bottle out, tucked
it under his coat and went home. The
next day the manager, bookkeeper and
cashier sat and eyed each other sharply.
while the shipping clerk. who was not
under suspicion, laughed to himself.-S.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

In making a mustard plaster, take q
piece Of lard and stir the dry mustard
into the lard until it is a thick paste
and will just spread. Spread on a
piece Of lawn and apply to the affected
part. This will not blister.
An excellent cure for hoarseness is
roast a lemon until it is soft all
through; do not allow it to burst.
While still hot cut piece from the
end and fill the lemon with as much
granulated sugar as il will hold. Then
eat it while hot.
To prevent pie juice from running
out in the oven, make little opening
in the upper crust and insert straw
or little roll Of white paper perpendic-
ularly. The steam will escape through
it as through chimney, and the juice
will be retained in the pie.
Have you ever tried hot pancake
for an aching side or back? Mix -four
and water together until you have a
thick batter and cook on hot griddle
with very little grease. Place it be-
tween thin muslin and apply to the
aching place. A pancake applied to
the base OF the brain will often relieve
headache. and is recommended for
congestion Of the lungs.
Kerosene oil added to the water with
which mirrors, windows, or anything
OF glass is to be washed. will give a
luster. A pint OF water and three
tablespoonfuls Of oil will wash four
large windows. First dust the win
dows carefully, then rub well with
kerosene and water and polish with
old newspapers.

Brutal Creatures

A report lately drawn up by DR.. Lom.
bardo on the sulphur mines of Sicily is
so fearful as to be almost incredible. DIR.
Lombardo says that in his province alone
5000 children are employed in the ex-
traction Of sulphur. and that it is an es-
tsblished fact that they are literally
"spurred" by their overseers to quicken
their movements, some Of the marks fire..
quently remaining livid on the skin for
as long as ten days. These brutal crea-
lures will eveL burn the shins and
calves of the children with their lamps
to make them work faster. these burns
constantly resulting in iosthsome sores,
which the doctor has ofen been required
to Investigate, as also the diseases to
which they give rise.

suEgP.suEARuNe MACHINE

The strengthening machine in OPP
sration at Soda Springs, Idaho, is at
,racting the attention Of sheep-men all
over the Northwest. The Heppner
Gazette has this to say about it:
Most OF our people have seen the
sbearing machine in which d. A. Her
ron Of this place is interested, or, in
other words, the clipper that takes the
rlace Of the shears. Recently Mr..
Uerren was summoned up to Soda
Springs, Idaho. by Mr.. Holiday, the
general agent, to witness its work.
Ha WAS present at one days shearing.
The plant could shear % sheep at
once and the days work was 1000
head. but nearly all Of the shearers
were inexperienced men who had
neyer sheared at all. One Montana
sbesrer Of much experience in the old
vsy. "sheared out" 120 head. The
sbeep when finished looked like they
had been turned out of wood-there
were no cut sheep and no cut fibre.
Wool sheared by machine commands
IL cents per pound more than that
sheared by hand. and there is saving
oflh pounds Of wool to every sheep
over the old way. These are items
worth considering.
Shearers will not fight the machine
because it is not opposed to labor. 1t
takes just as many men as the old plan
Of shearing, ii is easier to work, and
shearers get the same price per head
as when shearing by hand. They are
under no expense for buying shears,
files, oilstones, etc.
The plant at Soda Springs is owned
bya merchant. lie charges the sheep
men 7 cents, 5 cents going TO the
shearer and cents 10 the machine.
Considering the saving OF wool. the
better condition OF the wool when
sbeared, and its greater value owing to
the fact that no fibre is injured in
shearing, the shesring machine is
bound to become popular.

Zone sees many funny things at
sea-" remarked an old sea captain.
"An incident that struck me as being
particularly funny occurred aboard my
ship one Thanksgiving Day on trip
from San Diego to San Francisco. A
great crowd OF people, not used to
ocean travel, got aboard at San Diego.
The sea was.as smooth as mill pond,
so all but one or two came down to
dinner with q rush as soon as the gong
sounded. They were evidently afraid
there would not be enough to 60 around,
so they pitched in and ate all the
pickles, cold tongue, cold roast beef,
jelley, bread and butter and cakes be-
fore they had chance to see what
was going to happen. Then when the
walters commenced bringing in one
course after another Of the Thanks
giving dinner, they looked at each
other in disgust. They were so full
they could not eat another mouthful
long before we reached the turkey and
cranberry sauce.
"The next day at noon those people
knew better. They sat and waited
while the other people ate all the cold
stuff and then learned that the hot
meal came in the evening every day
except on feast days. and they had to
leave the table hungry. IS. F. Post.

The various State Conventions OF all
political parties will during the coming
Summer nominate Presidential Electors.
The number Of electors chosen By each
State equals the number Of members IL
sends 10 Congress. The ratio OF repre-
sentstion in the House under the appor-
tionment made by the eleventh census is
one to every 173. .S01 in q State, which gives
g total Of 357 representatives.. There are
80 Senators. This makes the total repre-
sentstion in both branches of Congress
447, and the electoral college will therefore
be composed Of 447 members. The ap-
pended table shows the vote which each
State will be entitled to in the choice for

More Horrible Than Reported.


The st. Louis cyclone was not only
frightful visitation upon that community,
but was even more horrible than the st.
Louis papers or the Associated Press dis
patches stated. 1t was given out to the
world that 400 lives were lost in that
sad calamity. The truth is-and the
statement was made to the writer by
newspaper men Of st. Louis and by
members Of the Chamber of Commerce
Of that city-that definite figures cannot
even yet be given, but that the record Of
the dead will surely foot up between
$500 and 5000. Newspaper men in
st. Louis acknowledge that they sup
pressed the real enormity Of the disas-
ter because they wished to save the
reputation Of the city as much as possi-
BILE; and they feared that. if the whole
truth were known. the holding OF the
National Republican Convention might
be postponed even at the eleventh hour.
and given over to some other city.-Sac-

which directly affect the money
of the people, We stand squarely
on the silver plank, regardless of
