WARM WEATHER HINTS.

have generally found that the heat
dry, the windy or the cloudy day, af-
fected me very little if I went calmly
on and made the best of it. Ones
work should occupy ones thoughts
and hands SO fully that one has no
time TO be troubled about surround
ings or atmosphere. The busy girl is
happier than the INDECENT girl for the
reason that her mind is taken up with
something worth while.
A little caution about fans Don't
fan SO vigorously that you put your
self into heat by the exertion. New
er fan the back of your friends neck
if you are sitting behind her. Fan
with gentle, steady motion, so that
waves of air strike your own face, but
not SO that you send icy shivers down
your own spine.
On very sultry day nothing is
gained by drinking great deal of ice
water. The more one drinks, the
more thirsty one grows. A little wa
ter held in the mouth a moment, and
allowed to trick1e down the throat,
will relieve thirst more effectually
than a gobletful hastily tossed off.
The question comes up every sum-
mer, how shall we best keep our
homes cool during the sultry part of
the day? Shall we close them and
shut out the heat, or simply darken
them and allow the air to come in?
My way has been to open every win
dow, both at the top and at the bot
tom, early in the morning, flooding
the house with the sweet, cool air.
Then, about 10 o'clock, or earlier, close
the windows, except for few inches
at the bottom, and fasten shutters and
blinds SO they will not fly open. Dark
en- every room which you are not US
ing until the sun goes down. But do
not sit to read, sew or practice in the
dark. Your eyes need plenty of light.
When you go into the darkened rooms
do SO to rest, not to work.

Tobacco smugGlers In Spain.

The beasts had each two panniers of
straw slung across pack saddle. We
crammed these with the scented bales,
and then built up others above them, and
topped up with a vast and evil smelling
sheepskin. Then we made all fast with
ropes done into diamond hitch,
which British Columbia thinks is an in
yention of its own.

The climbing talents of smuggler's
mule have passed into proverb. Other
wise they might be described as impish.
The 80 stalwart brutes that made up
our train clambered up defiles and over
crags which make one fairly shiver to
think back at They were not led. They
carried no mouth bit The bride of each
ended in stirrup shaped iron, which
chung round the nose, and to this a
chain was made fast, and to it a raw
hide thong. The arriero used this some
times as a whip, sometimes as a tow
rope for himself, but more frequently
let it drag. The mule wore an iron
muzzle to discourage browsing and
seemed to know that the sooner his
work was ended the sooner he would
get feed, wherefore he fastened, not be-
ing without a rude selfish wit of his own.
With one exception, we bipeds trudg-
ed along on our rope soled sandals beside
the beasts or on occasion warped our
selves over the rocks with hands as
well. The managing director of the
company alone did not walk. He was
little, old, shriveled, snow haired man,
with white face and coal black mus
tache and coal black, beady eyes. He
sat cross legged above his bales, on the
hurricane deck, as it were, of his mule,
and one thought highly of his pluck.
One knew something about the sure
footedness of the mule, but [ should not
have cared for that ride myself. A sin
gle slip off a rolling stone, and-well,
we seemed from choice to meander half
way up the flank of precipices, and it
hurt ones stomach to think about tum-
bling. -Temple Bar.

A large portion of our people. are
renters of houses and frequently
change their abodes; but how many
are thoughtful enough to ask about
sicknesses which have recently oc-
CURED in the houses to which they
propose to move their families? The
point is this: The germs of many dis
eases, as scarlet fever, measles, diph-
liberia, typhoid fever, etc., may linger
for months about house, and a fam
lily moving into such a place may in a
few weeks be stricken down, and
much suffering, expense and even
death be the result. There is no truth
in the old idea that children must have
the whole series of chi1dren's diseas-
es. The most of them can be avoid
ed, and If more care were exercised
by parents, thousands of innocent
lives might be saved. If children can
be carried beyond the age of 16 years
without contracting scarlet fever or
diphtheria-the two worst diseases of
childhood,-there is then compare
lively little danger from them. The
same is true of other diseases.

as many rs thousand people were out on
the plains today, the second day of the
coursing clubs meeting, to witness the
running in the first round of the Aberdeen
derby 'or greyhound puppies. whelped on
or after January 1st, 1876. There were eigh-
teen competitors and not a bad one in the
lot, SO the coursing was correspondingly
good. This stake is not SO valuable as that
for the older dogs, but the owner of the
winner will get $3.50, second and third
moneys being 800 and $50.
Hares were again none too plentiful and
only nine courses were run. The results
and places whence the competitors hail
are as follows:
Cashier. Mitchell. S. D., beat Sunshine,
Oakes. N. D.; Little Dorit Aberdeen, S. d..
beat Mystic Maid, st. Louis; Moonshine
Oakes. N. D., beat DIR. Norman, Chicago:

1t was intended to run through the sec

it was SO late in the afternoon before the
first round was finished that il
was thought advisable not to make a start

Brown made business of rolling drunl1s"
on the water front and trap was laid to
catch him. A fisherman pretended to be
drunk and showed Brown some money.
Then he laid down and went to sleep.
Brown promptly proceeded to rob him, but
when he tried to withdraw his hand from
the fisherman's pocket he was caught by a
number of fish hooks that had been sewed
into the pocket of the sleeping man. Brown
was arrested and the hooks had to be cut
out of his hand before he could be taken

OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 30.-Citizens of
Omaha, to the number of 10000, paid their
respects to the union generals tonight,
and the number was limited only by the
capacity Of the halls where tho speeches.
were made. Early it became apparent
that Boyd's Opera house could not ac-
commodate all those who desired to hear
the speeches, and Karbaugh hall was
used for an overflow meeting, and the
veterans spoke in both places, in order
that none should be disappointed. The
stage in both halls was occupied by the
prominent men of Omaha and the state,
to the number of over 100, the reception
being under G. A. r. auspices. A parade
of veterans received the veterans at the
depot and escorted them to the hotel and
later to the halls. An immense throng
of citizens greeted the special train, and
the streets were lined with people eager
to do honor to the distinguished guests
of Nebraska. Gems. Howard, Siegel and
Sickles and Hon. Russell Alger, Cor
poral Tanner and Messrs, Stewart and
Burst spoke.
The remarks of the veterans were con-
fined to the political situation largely, all
explaining why they would support Nc
Kinley and his party rather than that of
Bryan and his party. The remarks were
enthusiastically greeted. Corporal Tan
ner received an unusual demonstration
when he touched on local paper for
commenting slurringly on the tour of the
veterans
He said: THE insinuation is made
that we are travelinA at! the expense of
Mark Hanna and the national Republic
an committee. There are four of us old
soldiers, Gen. Sickles and Gen. Howard,
Major Burst and myself. There are
twelve amputations among US four men.
1t WAS hard for us to walk up and down
stairs and travel in the ordinary way.
There was another soldier who had gone
through the war, like many Of you, with
out receiving q scratch. So Russell A.
Alger that old soldier, called us to Chi
cago and promised to do everything for
us that money could. He turned over
his private car and hired palace car.
Therefore, we have to thank God and

we are having. 1t costs money. but Gen.

basis with gold and silver and paper,
and all equal. credit, which is more than
half the capital of thisor any other
country, will be reinstated and we will
once more. in my judgment, enter upon
better era Of prosperity.
My greatest concern, and my chief OBJ
ject in this, as in every other campaign,
is to drive from our shores distress,
want and misery, and to lift up those
who are bowed down, and to bring to
those who are in want of work, prosper
ity And I never view with tolerance
any system which has a different object
toward any American citizen anywhere
within the limits of our great republic.
Why, the question involved in this cam
paign is the reactionary policy of free
silver, which need hardly mention to
Pennsylvania audience, to people of
honest Quaker descent, who love hon.
esty. One of the injurious effects of the
mere advocacy of free silver, and one
which is tool title noted, is that it makes
it harder to induce many who would
otherwise invest, to enter into legitimate
public and private enterprises. There
is depression on every hand. Men do not
know what the future has in store for
them. This is particularly observable in
cities which are endeavoring to sell their
bonds to make public improvements.
The very threat of free silver is stopping
the sale of city bonds in every part of the
country. This loss falls with peculiar
force on laborers everywhere. Cities
can ordinarily make improvements if
they can borrow money; if they cannot
borrow money, they cannot make i'm
provements; if they do not make i'm
provements, hundreds of thousands of
laboring men, who depend upon this
class of work for daily bread, are de-
prived of employment.
I appreciate more than 1 can tell this
visit on such an inclement occasion on
the part of Republicans to testify their
devotion to the Republican cause and
give assurance of support to me in the
present canvass. TfIr year. as in every
crisis in the history of our country, men
of all parties are uniting. Men who have
been Democrats, men who belong to
other parties, loving their country and
it's honor more than they love party,
are with us this year We welcome them
all, and standing together, am quite
sure that on November the verdict
will teach the whole world that the
American people love honesty and tAat
the American government will maintain
it's financial honor at any cost.
