best thing you fellows can do is to get
up to the Forks and take lesson from
Miss Mulrooney."
The Dawson acknowledgment be-
came so angry at Miss Mulrooney that
they felt like hanging her, but should
blsrney on her lips they were her
friends again. She had saloon con-
nected with her establishment, and it
was the quietest saloon in the klon-
dixie. She was her own bouncer. 1t
is q weakness of the miner to take q
drop more than is good for him, and
then either brute force or fnesse is re-
quiTed to deal with him. Miss Null

was penniless one week and rocked So

down to the Forks to celebrate. After
he reached certain stage Miss Null
rooney refused to let him have any
more whisky. Then he was going to
break the house down.
Bill Jones would never do that,
said Miss Mulrooney. "He's too much
of q gentleman"
said meekly. And then the big fellow
followed her about the house for half
an hour, asking her to forgive him II
he had said anything improper-be-
cause, as he put it, when he had struck
a fortune, after looking for one in so
many camps, a man couldn't help feel
ing ''little good.
When / told Miss Mulrooney that if
she didn't watch out on her return to
civilization Sorosis would take her up
and ask her 20 make speech.
"It's great speech they'd get from
me, ;" she said, her blue eyes twinkling.

She was born in Scranton, Pa, less

their supplies as Miss Mulrooney had
paid at the beginning of the season.
From all over the country the miners

IF Alec Mcdonald is King of the

namely, dilatiou of the organ, precipi-
tated a fatal illness by plsyfully vault

An unusual eye-strsin may likewise
seriously threaten the function of the
short-sighted eye. Writing or reading
in the waning light of evening, or un-
usually longcontinued application to
work, is to be avoided.
AS soon as short-sightedness is MOTTO
ed, it should be checked by giving the
eyes nearly absolute rest. Glasses will
usually enable Il child to play with his
fellows which is always to be encour-
aged. The general health is to be
looked after when for any cause it is
lowered, since the progress of the local
disease is always affected by the gen.
eral state of health.
When it has been definitely ascer-
tanned that the defect of the eye is not
becoming worse, but is either station
airy or improving, work may be resum-
ed within limits decided upon by the
physician.-BufJalO Express.

e To Make Soup Nourishing.

In making soup, the object is to draw
all the nutritive qualities of the meat
into the water, and to do this the bones
must be cracked, so that the marrow
will be easily extracted, the meat cut
into small pieces, and the whole put
iuto cold water and allowed to heat
very slowly. Quick heating would
harden the meat and prevent the juices
more freely flowing out. The meat should
not be put into water and washed before
it is cut, as even the immersion for
so short time will draw out some OF
the nutrimenr. 1t should instead be
carefully wiped with a clean, damp
cloth. After cutting the meat into
small piec es and cracking the bones
put it into kettle, and cover it with
cold water, letting it stand little while
ON the back of the stove, then bring il
forward and heat slowly.-SallieJoy
