The Beers.

The Beers are race Of hunters, as
we'll as pastoralists, and the Transvaal
Beers especially have been engaged in a
war of determination (lamentable to the
lover Of animal life) against every spe-
cies of wild beast. Numbers of them
have been occupied ever since boyhood
in the hunting of elephants, buffaloes,
lions, rhinOceroses and other heavy
game. They have practically exterminat-
ed the elephant south Of the Zambezi,
and the buffalo is becoming very scarce
No man who understands South African
hunting can pretend TO say that the
chase of these animals is not danger

of nerve and courage. | will not say
that the average Boer hunter WILL by
way of recreation, face the lion single
handed in the way that the great Eng
lish manifestations, Oswell, Vardon,
Gordon Cumming. Baldwin and others
have accustomed us TO. Few hunters,
indeed, are so quixotic. The Boer treats
the lion as dangerous vermin, if posi-
BILE obtains help from his fellows, and
as matter of business Stays him by "a
volley. But hundreds of Beers have
slain lions single handed, and hundreds
have been mauled and even killed by
lions London Globe.

Copper Mining.

Some al the present methods resorted
to in the mining If copper are said to
have a very intimate relation with the
great success characterizing the produce
tive value of that metal in certain prom
inent localities. Conspicuous among
these methods is the avoidance of q
scrap Of waste, even the water, by pre-
cipitation. being made 10 yield value
that comes in the form Of precipitate
carrying from 10 TO 80 per cent copper.
The practicability Of this precipitation
of the waters is said TO have been dis
covered in very peculiar way and by
means Of experiments that were OF a
very crude character; the first TO mi
tiate the matter being miner who was
without experience or know ledge in re-
spect TO the chemical relations Of the
metals, but who casually ascertained
that a tin can or piece Of iron thrown
into the channel through which the
waste water was discharged would at
tract the copper contained in the water
and save at least large percentage Of
it-and so, in a short time, as the result
Of experiments, it was found that every
drop of water discharged by the mines
was capable of being handled to advan-
tage for the metal contained i'll it
In word, this being nothing less
than thorough solution of copper. run
ming steadily so many inches day, the
volume being raised into tanks, charged
with scrap iron and salt; from tank to
tank the volume goes until 1t passes
through circuit of them, over iron and
through fuming, before it is let off, aft
er which it is as clear as coal oil. The
contents of the water are now settled in
the tanks and one after another tank
is cut out of the circuit. the iron re-
moved, the copper hammered off, sort
ed and shipped. 1t is through this that
the least particle of copper is saved.

Pickett and the British.

In one of the most serious disputes
the United States has had with Great
Britain over boundary question Nir-
gilman bore the most prominent part III
preventing British encroachment. We
refer 10 the San Juan island incident.
The Virginian was Captain George +.
Pickett of the United States army, aft
erward General Pickett of the Confed-
crate army. In 1896, during the disa
greement anent the northwest boundary,
Captain Pickett, with 90 men, was or
dered 10 occupy the island, and Sir
James Doug lass sent three British war
ships to eject him from his position.
Pickett babe defiance TO this show of
force, threatening 10 fire upon any
troops that attempted TO land from the
vessels, and a clash of arms was only
prevented by the timely arrival Of the
British admiral, by whose orders the
matter Of endeavoring TO take possession
of the island vi ct arms was postponed.
Subsequently Pickett was REINFORCED
and the danger Of hostilities blew over.
For his conduct on this occasion Captain
Pickett was highly complimented by
General Harvey, and the legislature Of
Washington territory passed resolutions
Of thanks to him. Richmond Dispatch.

PRESERVE The HAIR.
esDs Useful suggestions tn Those Who
Value What IL Invaluable.

Avoid tight fitting hats and collars,
ilso close fitting caps, unless these be
of some porous material. The two former
prevent due supply of blood 10 the
parts; hence the hair papillp are put.
as il were, on short commons all the
time the hats and collars are worn. The
caps engender calOric, which sets up
irritation and ultimately that most
stubborn form of dandruff-namely
pityrhsis Il. e., hranny scales). Note
that all the headgear which is not porous
should be ventilated at top and sides to
allow free current of air.
Never sit or stand with the top Of the
head near gas light OF lamp light The
heat thrown ont is apt to paralyZe the
scalp tissues and dries up the hair itself
Don't wash the head oftener than
once fortnight, when first rub in the
yolk of an egg and thoroughly rinse out
with warm water. into which has been
thrown pinch of borax. Dry carefully
and apply little pure olive oil.
Beware of the common practice of
dipping the comb in water when ar
ranging the hair. 1t promotes decompo-
sition and rancidity Of the natural oil,
and SO leads TO ''rotting."
If the hair be naturally dry, apply a
little olive oil occasionally. If natural
ly oily, occasionally wash away the ex-
cess of sebaceous secretion by means Of
lather or tepid water and soap bark
(Quitlaya saponaria).
Salt water is most injurious to the
hair, for which reason when sea bath
ing wear an oil cap.
Always treat the scalp as if you loved
it. Take to heart DR.. Godfrey's dictum
that "every touch affecting so delicate
n texture as the scalp should be soft and
soothing, every application bland and
mild. Don't use stiff bristled or wire
brushes. and in all cases brush gently
Also, always brush out the hair before
attempting to comb it, and use the comb
as little as possible.
Have the ends Of the hair clipped once
month, if only to prevent them from
splitting. But don't close crop. -Phila
delphia Times.

The future of the publishers work
for higher standard of literature de-
ponds largely upon the Libraries and IL
brary associations. Larger library funds
and better methods of distribution will
make the next generation of scribblers
better fitted 10 scribble. The books
which puzzle publishers the most are
those which few people could use to
great advantage. If we publishers could
be assured that SEQ public Libraries
would buy them, il would be possible for
us 10 publish many books which are now
refused, hut which would be in demand
by scholarly reading public, now not
able To buy them. Out Of 1000 Libraries
in this country only about 200 have a
buying income, and of these perhaps 100
can take these books which the scholars,
WIZ would use them with great benefit,
can take Here IN New Eng land you
are doing your full share in this direc-
tion of catering TO the most scholarly
taste of readers, but many Of you lack
funds, and what we need all over this
country is a better understanding of this
need and library endowments which
shall make il possible for us to publish
these works that would be Of benefit to
libraries and to the very best class of
readers. Mr.. &. II. Putnam to Massa-
