Too Warm

A sad, yet humorous, calamity
happened few days ago to one of
our lsading bellies. The young lady
was blessed with lovely head of
hair, but, becoming envious of the
curls of a girl friend, she determin-
ed to adopt the captivating style of
the latter. This, one OF her wise
friends said, was easy of accomplish
ment. She had merely to put her
tresses in curling papers, give them
twist with curling iron, and she
would sally forth like q new Venus.
In the silent sanctity of her boudoir
she prepared for the metamorphosis.
The tresses were encased in papers,
and, when all was ready, the final
touch was given to them with the
irons. When the last one had re-
ceived the necessary squeeze, her
womanly curiosity prevailed, and
she undid one only one. Imagine
her disgust when the tress parted
company from her head The curl
ing iron had burnt each lock, and
now the young lady is trying the
numerous kinds of hair restorers to
regain the glory that is no more.

International and Otherwise.

How shall execute my mission
with credit to myself and honor TO
my countryw asked newly APP
pointed ambassador accredited to
foreign Court of great English
colleague como years ago. "You
must at all times and on all occa-
sions speak the truth, for the conse-
quence will be that you will never
be believed. By this means you will
not only secure yourself against the
treachery of the inquisitive, but you
will put all you deal with at fault in
their own conjectures and projects.
But, af,er all, there would be GER
tain disingenuousness in such line
OF policy; for since it is understood
that the game is not played that
way, to tell the truth would be like
taking an undue advantage Of the
other players. 1t has always been
held that the English are bad diplo-
mats. They are supposed 10 lack
fiuesse and subtlety. They don't lie
with sufficient circumstance. The
concert of Europe has been restored
to harmony mainly through English
influence, but the prospects OF peace
if they arc strengthened in one
quarter seem to be weake ned in
another. 1t looks as If Prince Bis
mark might break up the Triple
Alliance. Italy has long felt that
she made a mistake in entering into
partnership with Germany. France
is doing all she knows to draw her
out of it. Bismark's disclosures
have shaken the confidence of both
Italy and Austria, Italy cutting
herself adrift, and, with Russia,
playing the part of benevolent
locker on, France would not, it is
feared, hesitate to try her fortunes
once more against Germany, Hap

the putfs originate, and blew the meal

A similar melodrama, whose plot
swung and ratified about restaurant
ticket, had its scene in Chicago. 1t was
before the days when gold cures offered
temporary relief to those addicted to
the rosy. One young man, naturally of
a thrifty habit, reached a point in his
life when he learned that if he became
thirsty he became very much So In
quelling this thirst he was apt to squan-
der all the money he had saved since
the last time. So it came that, being
philosophic, he rose superior to his pro-
pensity for thrift and disposed of his
salary as fast as he earned it Thereby
he got due and proper action for his
money, and also appreeiably shortened
the length of his DRINKS. Having no
reserve fund, he could not continue his
liquor consuming career for long. One
Monday he detected the stealthy APP
proach Of the thirst. He had become SO
wise that he could tell it Is hours away,
It was his salary day, and, knowing
full we'll his weakness, the first invest
ment he made was in a meal ticket.
On the Thursday following the next
he saw the sun. The interval was part
blank and part confusion of red lights,
cabs and schooners He had not cent
in his clothes, and was as hungry as a
shipwrecked sailor. He dug up his meal
ticket and went around to Calhoun place

The American Field jumps upon the
foreigners who come to the United
States, seek out those localities where
most Of the big game is to be found,
and then lay themselves down to the
work of Strengthening it with rifles. A
favorite resort of these game butchers
is the Teton basin. Here are found elk,
deer and antelope, which are being kill

sons Hole, is much lower than the Ma

the big game migrates south to it, as a
warmer climate is to be found in the
valley. 1t is here that the hunters from
abroad congregate, and in spite of the
Wyoming state laws kill game wanton-
ly. If these men would kill couple Of
heads of each kind, taking care Of the
meat, and following up wounded game,
little or no objection would be made.
These hunters, some of whom are
Americans, pass through the National
park ON their way home with wagon
loads of skins and horns The law in
relation to transporting game reads
that possession within the park of the
dead bodies or any part thereof of any
wild bird or animal shall be prima ia
Gle evidence that the person or persons
having the same are guilty of violating
this act" With this act behind him
the superintendent could squelch the
wholesale slaughterers of game in the
region of the Yellowstone park, accord
ing to The American Field. Captain
Anderson, the superintendent, is urged
to make an effort to enforce the law.
What would be better yet would be the
annexation of the Jackson's Hole coun-
try to the Yellowstone park.
