SAFETY.

Here's shoe for railroad
folks. 1t is called Beale's
Patent Safety Railroad Con-
gress." If a mans foot gets
caught in a frog, it matters
little, because he can withdraw
it from his shoe in an instant.
The shoe is gored all around
the top, SO that the foot slips
out easily. No railroad man
should wear anything else. He
is safe with these shoes on his
feet. He is in danger without.
$500 a pair. A pretty low
price for safety.

Well-fed Horses.

Certainly my fathers stable was a sight
for sore eyes. A series of rectangular
holes in the wall of the courtyard formed
the hangers, to which the horses were Sc
cured by head ropes; the heels of each ami
NAL were tied by ropes OF black camel's
hair to a big iron pin driven into the
ground behind it. Each OF them was COW
cred by a light wooden sheet, and they were
all eating away as though for dear life. it
being nearly summer, when IS my father
informed me-, all horses are fattened on
grass for a couple of months, and do little
or no work.
There was q great heap OF freshly.cu9
green barley, and a boy was bnsily Occu-

emptied Its manger it would look around
at the head groom. who was seated on a
brick platform in the middle Of the stable
would address It by it's name, "Yes, my
soul, sou shall be attended to immediately
then he would call to the second boy, who
would fill the ami 8 ais manager with fresh

This goes on all day and all night,

and Glide Waltz.
The edict of fashion has gone forth
which has decreed that the varsouvianna
shall be the dance ''de resistance" for the
season. II is a medley of graceful steps.
1t consists of a combination o. the pclka
redowa. the muzurks, and tn glide waltz.
Slow music, melodious tunes and deIiberi-
ton of movement are the complement OF
requisites to master it.
First part, polka redowa, ore measure;
point left in second, one measure. Polka
redOWa to left, one measure; point right

instructions, in all eight measures. The
second part alternates into two measures

The advance ~varsouvianna is an out

ly employed.
The waltz is the primitive round dance,
from which all others are evolved. Each
season a variation of the genuine article
is chronicled on the list of new dances.
1t is incorporating this year under the
assumed title OF the 1.-TWO step" 1t vies
with the varsouvianna for prestige, and is
regarded by many as the truest exponent
of the poetry of motion. No other mode
of exercise is so conductive to the COM
plete mastery Of the body.
Dancing is an advanced form of physi-
cal culture. 1t is the graceful and more
refined degree of athletic training. The
principles and peculiarities for dancing
are the same every where: 1t is a universal
accomplishment and is not difficult to mas
ter by one who has an ear for music and
the lproper agility of limb. The slow
swinging movements of the arm and the
.undulatingI circles described by the dancers
are very pronounced in the dances OF the
day. The Objectionable method of en-
circliDg 2 young wOman's waist while in
the act of Waiting has been subjected to
adverse criticism. The mode which now
prevails is graceful, modest and entirely
consistent with propriety. To acquire the
proper position the gentleman's left hand
should be placed just below the shoulder
of the lady. The body should incline
slightly in order that artistic grace may be
observed. He holds his partners hand in
his right, while his proficiency as a dancer
and his good taste tell best how to dispose
of the clasped hands.
The art of dancing is not only necessary
as a polite accomplishment, but it is the
open sesame to the inner circles. 1t teaches
repose coltidenc &c and self possession. The
manner of presenting ones self and of re-
+, ewing Others in company with the
graceful ease and propriety and the polite
demeanor which characterize the well born

study the art.

Thinks She Was once q Cat.

Mrs. Ella Wheeler Wilcox believes in
reincarnation. She thinks possibly she
a cat once This is due probably to
the fact that she bestows much of her sur
plus affection her interest and the unans-
wered wondering of her heart upon
Banjo.
Banjo is her pet cat. He is, OF course,
the most remarkable example OF the fe-
line race that ever scampered after 4 iut-
tering ribbon or tried to chase its
tall: Banjo Is an aristocrat and he is In
telllgent. One characteristic that Mrs.
wilcox points to with pride Ia Banio's love
OF mice. Other cats may be afraid of
mice, but Banjo Is composed In their
presence. At night he slumters in a
0owny pillow In . warm room, furnished
exclusively for his comfort. Mrs. Wilc
declares that Banjo was not aiways 4 cat.
nne has an Idea that in some former exist
ence she and Banjo were friends. IL is
her theory that the soul goes into the e
table and mineral state from time 10 time,
and that occasionally It passes into animal

Hol.tei. cro.,hresa..

The cross between the pure Holstein
and Jersey COW is generally mongrel,
or mixed in an utter confusion Of col
ors, and woolly to great degree. The
eye and deer-like head Of the Jersey
can be detected at times, while the
form is smoother, more plump and less
bony than either the Holstein or Jer-
sey, and the size is between the two.
The first cross between~the Holstthn
and common stock is uniformly black
and white, while about one-sixth of the
second cross goes back in color to the
dam Of the first cross, and the crosses
thereafter prove true to the Holsteins
in color These animals are of good
size for IT," shambles, and also produce
about tw y as much milk as Jersey
grades and of equal quality. The Hol-
stein seems to be the only breed that
will produc. such valuable cross
breeds.-G. r. Sheath in Orange Judd

An 1ll-As.orted Marriage.

The allusion to May and December,
in describing marriages between youth
and age has been used so much that
it has become trite. But II there ever
was a case in which the expression
could be properly applied, it was one
that occurred in Richmond, Va, a
short time ago. The singular feature
of the case is that the groom imperson-
ated May. the bride assuming the role
of December. The former was Hiram
d. Ely, fifteen years old. and the latter
Mrs. Jane D. Ely. his sister-in-law, a
widow on the shabby side of fifty and
the mother of four children. Both were
from the country, and as the boy pro-
duced permit from his mother to
marry, a license was granted, and the
strangely mismated couple were mar.
ried. They were accompanied on their
wedding tour by the four Children
Troy Times.

NJ. Cavileer, of abscess of the brain,
aged 35years, 3months, and 26 days.
Mr.. Cavileer was the second son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Cavileer of this
city. He went to St. Paul few
weeks ago to get medical attention,
and entered the hospital there. An
operation was performed and at first
it was hoped that he would recover.
A week before his death however, a
telegram announced his serious con-
dition and Mrs. CaviIeer went to st.
Paul, to attend to him and remained
with him until his death. The re.
mains arrived here on Sunday, and
Monday afternoon the funeral ser
vices conducted by Rev. r. Johnston,
were attended at the Presbyter-
ian church by very large cor grega.
tion of sympathising friends. Mr..
Cavileer was unmarried and leaves be.
sides his parents, two brotherd and a
sister. All our citizens join I'D sym.
pathy with the bereaved family.

Horse Breeding.

The tide has turned for horse breed
ing, as the supply of good horses is
now exhausted for our growing cities,
and the foreign trade that has so
rapidly developed takes ship loads
every week. We have at last come to
realize the Importance of breeding to
suit the order Of things, leaving out
small scrub horses and speed. Except
the few professional breeders of phe-
nomenal speed, we have to face the
new market demand for heavy draft
and stylish, handsome coachers at the
high prices ruling in the European
markets for hig class horses.

The common mushroom never
grows In the woods. Remembering
this, the collector will not eat supposed

The gills Of the common mushroom

A large genus. the lactarius, IL
known by its exuding milk when the
stems or caps IRE broken. Many Of
the species are esculent. None Of them
is poisonous, several Of them are large,
white and snowy; with two exceptions,
they grow from the ground, and are
found in the woods In large quanti-
ties. On tasting, one u disposed to
think that spontaneous combustion
has occurred in the mouth, but Il
loses its fiery qualities on cooking,
and, though It 10 q coarse species, 10
much more tender and savory than
many of the vegetables We eat.
Here let me say that, in cooking all
varieties Of toadstools they should be
cooked precisely as Is the oyster. The
time Of cooking should be determined
by the consistency Of the variety.
Salt, pepper and butter are the only
necessaries as seasoning, and the aim
should be to preserve, rs nearly as
possible, the natural flavor. 1t is cul-
mary heresy to soak them with gra-
vies or smother them with foreign
flavors.-Charles McIlvaine, in Phila-
