tongue while trying to seal letter
she was sending to her sweetheart
Herman Shultz Of Pittsburg in the

to the cut, and it had apparently
healed up. On last Friday, however,
it began to swell, and became rapid
ly worse until her death. Mean
while the letter had reached its des-
tination, and Shultz arrived at her
bedside in time to heal their differ
ences before she died.

we make a scarecrow, l buttoned it up
and crept out toward the end of a low
limb and lowered the coat down as far as
'twould 60 Then ] tied the other end OF
the string to the limb.
LAS soon as the skunks saw the boat
coming down they got under 1t and
swlshed around like as IL they were crazy.
'Twasn't any place for me on the limb up
above 'em. so l got back as fast as I
could and. sliding down the tree, skipped

Not long ago a skunk neld the entire
population of Birch Plain at bay Tor near
ly a half day. Birch Plain has a popu-
lation of something like thirty persons.
Jared Donires keeps the store, and 1t was
the store that fell into the possession of
the skunk. When Donires went TO open
the establishment for business one mora
ing he found standing on a pile of calico
that lay on the counter a large skunk.
that resented the intrusion by giving its
tall a nervous twitch. Without protesta-
tion Donires vacated the premises and
told his neighbors.
"set dorg on il" suggested Dick Tay-
lor.
mot much" replied Donires, Il don't
want my stock ruined"
Then the population got on the fence
across the road from the building, and
with eyes on the open door beat its brains
for a scheme that would bring the skunk
outside or that would encompass its death
inside without serious damage to the stock.
Three or four men carried guns, but these
could not be used to advantage unless the
skunk should take notion to come out
side
The problem was solved by Ezra Tinker.
He killed one Of Donres chickens and
threw the body on the step In front Of the
store door. The skunk scented the warm
blood and sneaked outside to get taste.
II was hardly outside Of the store when
q Volley Of shot was poured into II, and IL
was stretched out without having an op-
portunity to use its natural means of de-
fense
There Is a man in Alloway township who
handles skunks as freely as he would rab-
bits He Is Jonas Zane. He has what he
calls a skunk nursery, about a mile and a
half from Hancocks bridge. He raises
skunks for the market with as much zeal
as a farmer raises calves. The pelts sell
for 81 to $l50 each and the grease has a
high market value.
~ calculate" said Zane. recently, "that
during the forty odd years that / have
been in the skunk business have raised
more than 10000 skunks and every one OF
'em has been worth a dollar to me, clear
of all expenses There is one thing about
skunk raising; a fellow doesn't run so
much risk as he would IL he was raising
chickens, for he has no trouble with
thieves 1 have known but one man to try
to rob my skunk houses and he was sorry
he did 1t. That was a good many years

From the Chicago Journal.
Few persons comprehend the dangers
that were attached to the work OF western
newspaper correspondents back in the days
when Indian fighting was the principal oc-
cupatlon Of soldiers on the borderland.
Gen. Nelson A. Miles, u s. A., famed the
country over for his success in doing battle
with the redskins, was in Chicago several
days this week, and one of the first men
he met was Edward Rosewater, editor Of
the Omaha Bee. The meeting was signih-

and back to dress in hurry for o'clock
breakfast In the same gown she will
frequently get through luncheon and a
couple of teas or calls as the case may be.
and then she has an hour of delicious rest,
after twenty minutes massage at the
hands of her maid
ut is always as late as 6 before she can
begin the ordeal of dressing for dinner
and the dance or the opera which is to
follow. First, her hair is arranged In
some simple fashion, for elaborate Golf
fures are no longer the vogue for the un-
married belle. Perhaps it is parted and
drawn back with a little fullness over the
ears, a la Merode, the back hair knotted
in the plainest sort of style. Or If she be
of the statuesque type, il is brushed away
from the face and coiled on the top of her
head with a diamond cleaning in its dark
masses.
"Then the evening gown is put on with
all its dainty accessories of lace and linen.

| lace and knotted with tiny bows of rib
| bons is hidden beneath the outer skirt,
| and the bodice is adjusted with all it's nu-
merous hooks and fastenings The Beau

This evening will, perhaps, last until

| She will wearily think that in a few more
| hours she must take up the same round
of visits, teas, dressing, dressmakers and
| dances She will drink a cup of beef tea
which her maid will have ready for her;
| take off her gorgeous garments and in a
| few moments she will be asleep.
Her days will vary, of course. There
! will be one day each week the whole
morning of which will be given to the
athletic club. In a suit of flannel she
will swing dumb bells and fence; and per-
| haps will take a swimming lesson, from
which exercise she will emerge refresh
cd and ready for the social battlefield On
which she must appear until Lent if she
| wants to come out of the fray with her
| beauty honors thick upon her.
"Thon there will be one day every once
| in while when she will take a rest in a
| darkened room without an engagement in
| sight. For this is one of the newest and
most sensible fads which this winters
| girl will indulge in She will put aside
| one day which she will devote to making
up for lost sleep and rest, and in this way
will keep her eyes bright and her COM
| plexion clear in spite of the strain on
| body and mind which she must suffer
| once she starts on her career as a pro-
fessional beauty"
