An African Salt WORKS

Karembwe's is one Of the salt max
ing Wis: a sandy clay is dug out Of
the n..rs4es and placed in grass fur
nels. Water pouted on this dissolves the
salt. The solution trickles through the
green filter into a trough, after which
it is boiled and strained, and a fine,
large crystal salt is obtained. 1t IS Il
great trade in this part Of the world.
All villages make salt, which IS put up
in loads about FIVE inches III diameter
By four feet long. All these people, The
Waitawa, are very polite. Nost OF them

''Mister, won't yer give us er lift?'
The speaker was boy of 10, with an
expression of WEAKNESS on his face. The
one spoken to was !. youth Of about 22,
with shade of Inustache. The object
referred TO was bag about three feet
high, which seemed 10 be filled with
some heavy material:
"Certainly. my boy" replied the
youth, ''I'll help you on with it. y
True to his word, he grabbed the bag
around the center and proceeded to hit
it on to the boys shoulder. Suddenl-
unearthly yells and shrieks came from
within, and the object, whatever 1t was,
began to kick with such force that the
youth dropped the bag and proceeded TO
hold his hands to his stomach as If IL
great pain.
The boy and several bystanders were
shaking with laughter. A moment later
the top Of the bag opened, and lad Of
scampered away as fast as he could
run.
"Fooled!" yelled all the boys at the
youth as they scampered after the
youngster.
That is what they call the "bag
game" 1t is something new, and 1t
originated on the east side, but who IL
vented it no one knows. The idea SIM
ply is to geta ferocious youngSter to en-
ter the bag and then have some unsus-
picious person lift it. The yells and
shrieks and kicks will not fail to upset
his mental and perhaps physical equilib-
rum, and the youngsters will have d
great laugh as & result.--New York

LINCOLN COULD GET ANGRY.
As, For Example, When His Telegralns
Were Delivered to Stanton.

As. For Example, When His kilograms
Were Delivered to Stanton.
II have read several Lincoln ami
v,.rsary speeches, said Mr.. Charles
Frederick, 'an6 have been struck with
the statement contained in some Of
them to the effect that Mr.. Lincoln sell
dom got mad, and that when he did get
mad he did not allow himself to get
very mad. If these speakers spoke from
| their personal experience, it is all right,
but my personal experience with him
one night satisfied me he could get up a
terribly good sized case Of mad at times.
u was boy at the time and was d
messenger for the old American Tele-
graph company, which in after years
was absorbed by the present Western
Union telegraph For several days there
had been number Of kilograms for the
president from army officers, and among
them | remember two or three from
General Mcclellan. I don't remember
now why they did not come over the
military telegraph lines. Well, one
night I started over TO the White House
with a telegram that knew came from
General Mcclellan. 1t was for the pres
ident
In those days there was always a
guard of soldiers stationed at the two
avenue gates, as also at the other gates,
but messenger boys We're generally well
known, and they We're admitted day or
night without any question, at least TO
the from door, where another soldier
guard was also stationed. There was
, always an officer about the door, who
receiptcd for kilograms. This night,
however, saw Mr. Lincoln coming to-
ward the outer gate, and l thought l
would personally hand him the tele-
gram, which I did He smiled pleasant
" enough as he opened it, but q change
suddenly came over him.
&c Have you the other telegrams:' he
demanded of me. Ireplied that had
but the one, though I informed him
that knew that there had been one or
two others that day from General Nc
Clellan
g That is what he says, added the
president, 'and what anncys NE IS that
l have not received them.
Then, turning to the sentry, he
said: Send up to the door for the otfl-
Ger in charge and tell him that when
kilograms come here addressed to me-
they should and must be delivered tc
me. Tell him also, and by this time
the president was very mad, that If he
sends aL:;- more Of my kilograms over TO
Mr.. Stanton's house I'll drive him away
from here. Mr.. Stanton has enough tel
esrams of his own and should not have
mine
Though I was but boy" T" said Mr..
Frederick, 81 could see that Mr. Lin
coin was mad all the way through, and
that, for the moment at least, he was
displeased with his war minister, Secre-
tary Stanton, and that he intended ex-
actly what he said The president, then
directing himself TO me, continued :
, Boy, tell your folks that I must have
my telegrams. and that if these soldiers
about the door interfere any more l'll
drive every one of them away. don't
want them and never did want them

Tartar Medicine.

Formerly musk was used as medl-
cine in various parts CT the world, but
doctors in civilized lands do not hold
musk in high repute. In China 1t IS
still thoughtto be very good medicine,
but the Chinese have queer notions
about cures and charms. Able Hue, a
distinguished traveller, says that when a
Tartar doctor inds himself without his
drugs and medicines he is not in the least
embarrassed. .Ee writes the names Of the
needed drugs on slips of paper, and
these, being rolled up in little balls, are
swallowed by the sick man. ITO swal-
low the name of a remedy or the rem
,edy ITSELF" say the Tartars, comes to
precisely the same thing. p Noah
