THE HOUSE OF TOO MUCH
TROUBLE.

In the house Of Too Much Trouble
Lived a lonely little boy: I.
He was eager for q playmate. 6.
He was hungry for toy.
But twas always too much bother,
Too much dirt, and too much noise,
For the House OF Too Much Trouble
Wasn't meant for little boys.
And sometimes the little fellow
Loft a book upon the floor
Or forgot and laughed too loudly.
Or he failed to close the door.
In q House Of Too Much Trouble
Things must be precise and trim
In House of Too Much Trouble
There was little room for him.
He must never scatter playthings,
Must be quiet in his play:
Ev'ry room must be in order
And kept quiet all the day.
He had never had companions,
He had never owned pet
In the House OF Too Much Trouble
1t Ii trim and quiet yet.
Ev'ry room is set In order
Every book is In Its place.
And the lonely little fellow
Wears smile upon his face.
In the House Of Too Much Trouble
He IL silent and at rest
In the House of Too Much Trouble
With lily on his breast.

FooL,No BEAVERS.
How the Indians Managed to Slaughter
Them.

How the Indians Managed to Slaughter
Them.
There Is small beaver dam in
Cherry creek, few miles above Den
yer, and the farmer on whose premi-
ses It Is located has lots of fun study
ing the habits of the queer animals.
Inc beaver has scent bag under its
tai, and when the animals are con-
structing their queer houses or forts,
one Old beaver seems to lead the work,
and to summon the others to duty by
rubbing his breech against n tree, and
raising an Odor. This stands in the
place of cry, for the beavers are
dumb, or nearly so. The Indians were
acute observers, and learned this habit
or the beaver. They preserved the
beaver stone, and when they found a
beaver town the hunters would rub the
beavers perfume upon some tree half
submerged In the water, and hiding
near by. await the coming of the work
ers. The beavers would usually re-
spond in numbers and the hunters
would shoot them with arrows. When
the ice formed above the beavers pool,
the hunters would take long spears,
and breaking the shallow ice above the
breathing holes of the animals, await
their coming thither, for beavers can
not live long under water. They would
then spear them or drag them out of
the water by the hind legs and toma-
hawk them.-Field and Farm.

Latest Custom Among Parlsians n to

In Paris 1t Is more and more the GUS
tom to dye the hair, or, in the polite
vernacular Of the Parisians, "tint" it.
There is scarcely French actress
whose hair is not some shade of red.
mahogany, golden-brown, bronze, or
russell. One woman told an inquirer
the secret Of her hair, which was
most beautiful russell, waving and soft,
as well as brilliant. It did not bear
trace OF dye. A Turkish lady from
Constantinople for some favor received
gave her large package of powder
One tablespoonful of this powder put
In oil and alcohol applied lightly to
the hair produced the effect, the oil
preventing the harsh. dry appearances
all dyes give. The mixture actually
increased the growth of the hair. but
unfortunately nobody knows what It is
for the Turkish lady vanished There
are four colors the woman who has
dyed her hair red should strictly ad-
here to-white. black, blue, and gray
There Is in Paris an autocrat who
charges terrific prices, to whom women
go when they want an opinion as TO
what color they shall tint their hair.
He talks with them for an hour, studies
them in his Louis XIV. drawing room,
which has no suggestion Of hair dress
ing. regards their eyes and set Of the
features, inquiries what colors predom-
mate in the toilets selected by madame
for the season, and sends the inquirer
away. In day or SO she receives a
water color sketch of how she will look
with tiny curl of red hair, the shade
he has decided best suits her pinned
to the corner. She goes to the hair
dresser the artistic adviser employs.
and presto! the change is made. For
the house hair is worn very high or
very low, and the beautiful parting
which men admire SO much is done
away with, the pompadour effect, with
pun and curls, taking Its place. The
parting is left for very old ladies and
schoolgirls. All kinds of jeweled orna-
ments are worn in the hair.-Philadel-

The work win continu..

The divisions of the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad west of the Ohio river
are to receive the same sort Of i'm
provements that have been made on
the lines east of the Ohio. Not only
are the grades to be reduced wherever
1t is practicable. but very much heav-
Ter motive power is to be introduced.
In order to carry the additional weight
the bridges on all the divisions are
being replaced with heavier structures
and the track relaid with heavier steel
rail, It has been demonstrated by ac-
tual experiment that these changes
will result In an increase in train load
ing in some places Of more than 80
per cent, the average being about AZ
per cent. 1t is the hope Of the receiv-
ers that within the next two years the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad will be an
1s-foot grade road from Chicago to
Baltimore, with the exception Of that
portion Of 1t which passes over the
mountains where helping engines will
have to be used. A great many of the
estimates for the different portions Of
the work have been made. and those
who have seen the plans state that the
work can be done at q surprisingly
low cost considering the return. It
is understood that the policy Of re-
habilitation adopted by the receivers
two years ago will be continued by
the new company after the reoreani-
zation.

opinions on the dangers to health in

he declared. any surer way of induc-
ing premature mental decay than for
. man Of active habits to retire and do
nothing when Just past the zenith Of
life. and, ON the other hand, he did not
know any surer way Of enjoying what
Is termed green old age" than to
keep on working at something till the
close. The medical profession, re-
marks DR.. Browne. adapting itself to
the needs Of the times. has felt It in
cumbent upon 1t during the last de-
cade to insist mainly ON the evils OF
misuse of the brain-that is, the ex-
cessive strain not seldom imposed ON
1t in the fierce struggles after wealth
and more especially the overpressure
in the name Of education, but is now
not less keenly alive to the correlstive
evils Of the disuse of the brain.-New

The goat ought to do a great deal to
relieve the scare which has been pro-

that very few COWS are free from tn

drawn from the goats-a flock Of ten or
twelve goats. AT Leghorn and ut Avig-

other continental towns a similar goats
milk trade is carried On. The English.
however. are slow in quitting their

and wholesome the quitting may be.

much more economically fed than COWS.
In Calcutta there is a pretty small goat

Meal. ia per,,a.

When the Persian host thinks that
the entertainment has lasted long.
enough, he gives the signal for sup
per. which is served either in the same
or another room. A cloth Is laid on
the floor, around which are arranged
the long, fat cakes Of "plbble Bread"
which do double duty as food and
plates. The meats, consisting for the
most part of "pilaus" and "chilaws".o of
different sorts, are placed in the center,
together with bowls Of sherbet, each of
which is supplied with a delicatcly
carved wooden spoon. with deep, boat
shaped bowl. whereof the sides slope
down to form q sort of keel at the
bottom.
The guests squat down on their knees
and heels round the cloth, the hest
placing him whom he desires most to
honor on his right side at the upper
end of the room THAT is, opposite the
door,. At the lower end the musicians
and minstrels take their places, ana
NIL, without further delay, commence
:ln attack on the viands.
The consumption Of food progresses
rapidly. with but little conversation.
for 1t is not usual in Persia to linser
over meals, or to prolong them by talk,
which is better conducted while the
mouth is rot otherwise employed.
If the host wishes to pay special hon.
or to the guest, he picks out and places
i'll his mouth some particularly delicate
morsel. In about a quarter of an hour
from the commencement of the BAN
quet most of the guests have finished
and wished their hands by pouring
water over them from q metal ever
into & plate of the same material,
brought round by the servants for that
purpose.
They then rinse out their mouth, roll
down their sleeves again, partake of
u final pipe, and, unless they mean to
stay for the night. depart homeward,
