Wild Yak.

The yak, or wild OK of Tibet, has
sufficient spirit to turn and attack 2

would prove dangerous enemy. Col

adventure which illustrates the yaks

eyes and the blood which ran from his
nostrils. If he had had a little more

Queen Victoria has given so many
proofs of the possession of sterling yir-
tues that no one ever expects her to
swerve from the path approved by her
Judgment and her conscience. When
she first became queen, however, the
world had yet to learn how determined
the young girl ruler could be.
Lord Melbourne, her prime minister,
is said to have declared that he would
rather have ten kings to manage than
one queen.
On one occasion he arrived at Wind
sor late on Saturday night, and inform
ed his youthful sovereign that he had
brought for her inspection some papers
of Importance. But" said he, as
they must be gone into at length, will
not trouble your Majesty with them to-
night, but will request your attention
TO them tomorrow morning"
Tomorrow morning?" replied the
Queen. Tomorrow is Sunday, my

oneer California Soil.

The oil resources of California are be-
ing carefully investigated by the State
Mining Bureau, which locks for a great
development some day of the oil indus
try along the slopes Of the coast range
from San Francisco southwark almost
to the Mexican border line. The recent
extensive explorations made in the
southern part of the State by W. L..
Watts Of the Mining Bureau formed
the subject of an interesting popular
lecture given recently before the Acad-
envy Of Science.
The discourse was made additionally
entertaining by stereoptcOn display
OF views of the oil wells. bltuminous
deposits and petroleum-bearing regions
visited by the lecturer.
One of the views showed an asphalt
UNI flow in which were sticks and
stones and bones of animals. Some
times, the lecturer explained, cattle
lie down in the asphaltum when it is
warm; they never get up again. AT 9th
er times, on warm days. cows attempt
to walk through the soft black stuff,
but they stay in it until they are res
cued or until they die.-San Francisco

A correspondent of the Critic is re-
minded by something "that there is one
word which is misused by every jour
halist and every author wherever the
English language is written-the word
people" The misuse complained of
consists in using people as the plural
bf person" and an instance of it Is
credited to Mr.. Howells, who is criti-
fsed for writing of three people, sit
hing in a room. The authority who crit
tcises him points out that people" is a
collective noun, and can properly be APP
piled only to nation, tribe, a class,

eye on this little word people, and

II seems to have occurred to him that
grammar is subservient TO language.
and not language to grammar If the
best British and American authors for
the last twenty-five years have occa-
slonally used people" in the sense of
persons" there would seem to be war

usage is permissible. Persons" is a

How the Skin md Hair Should Bo
Treated.
The eyes should be washed daily. The
dust which we all suffer from should be
removed from the eyes by some lotion.
Use for this distilled water in the pro.
portion of pint to one-quarter OF n tea.
spoonful Of borax Let the water be luke.
warm.
The water for the face should never
be cold, because it shocks the nerves.
For daily sponge baths do not use hot
water, but lukewarm, A hot bath should
not be- taken of;encr than twice week.
and II would be well were one of these
Turkish. Be cautious as to how much
massage tho maid gives She would
treat everybody the same, but the indi-
yidual must regulate her own case.
Never allow the maid to massage the
face. In using cream on the face it is
only on the forehead that one should al
low much rubbing. If the necessary
foods for the face be used, one may go
out safely in the wintry air and take
long walks protected by no veil and en-
Joy the mir, being careful on returning
TO rub little more cream on the ex.
posed skin.
A soft crash face cloth is the best
towel to be used, and all the lotions art
applied by means Of it, For drying the
face this is simply wrung dry, no ''ev-
eryday" towel ever being applied to the
face. An olive soap is considered the
best for the face, and at night, before
the cream is applied, wash the face with
this soap and warm water, thus opening
the pores for the cream.
The eyebrows need brushing, as do
the eyolashes, Shampooing Of the hair
should be done every two weeks, for in
the most quiet home life the dust will
collect in spite of everything. For the
process lather should be made in the
hair by applying the following hair
shampoo, rubbing it on with the hands;
A dram of carbonate of soda, an ounce OF
bay rum, onc-half dram household am.
monia, yoll,s of eggs, pint of distill.
ed water tablespoonful of powdered
castillo soap
More tonic or oil may be given the
scalp if the hair be falling ont, but the
bay rum and yollSs of eggs afford enough
for ordinary need.
