Treatment of the Hands of Pianoforte
Pupils Who Practice.
A modest appearing young woman
entered a drug store on Madison ven
IL morning recently, and, walking to
the end of the counter nearest the pre-
scriptiOn department., mutely held out
both hands toward u clerk who CHANGED
to be standing in that particular place.
The clerk, equally mute, reached be-
hind a screen and brought out a blue
glass bottle, from which a brush han
die protruded. After stirring the o n
tents of the bottle with the brush for a
few seconds the clerk daintily brushed
the tips of the young woman's fingers
with the mixture, leaving a dark stain
around the top of each finger nail. With
q pleasant nod of her head and low
murmuring thanks the young woman
quickly withdrew from the store and
the blue glass bottle was put back III its
hiding place.
Observing a puzzled expression on the
face of an old patron of the store who
had come in to get a cigar, the clerk
said, iodine"
"What for?" asked the smoker.
Prevents the fingers from getting
sore, replied the clerk. "She is from
the musical conservatory, where she
practices on the piano three or foul
hours a day. In order to prevent tine
finger nails from coming in contact witt
the ivory keys she has them cut very
short, and we apply iodine to take the
soreness out of the ends Of the fingers
after they have been subjected to three
or four hours of pounding. Most piano
players, you will observe, have theil
finger nails cut to the quick, so that III
clicking sound is emitted when the.
strike the keys. We keep a bottle of 10
dine and a brush for the special use o
the pianoforte pupils of the conserva
tory. They come i'll here for treatmen
two or three times a week and pay b.
the month. New York Times.

MI. and Mrs. j. came to town the
other day. The madam is a large, mus
cular looking and is evidently
the boss of the ranch, while Mr.. ]. is "a
cowed, effeminate looking creature who
seems to be afraid when the madam is
around. While Mrs. J. went into Gold
namer's to do some shopping the little
man slipped off to Bells to get a drink.
While he was down there he heard the
telephone ring and inquired what it
was. The mysteries of the instrument
were explained, and Mr.. Bell offered to
call up his wife at Goldnamer's and let
him talk to her. This seemed to please
him very much, but just as he got the
trumpet to his ear the lightning struck
the wire and knocked him down. Stag
gering to his feet, he said: That's her.
1t sounds just like her. "-Louisville

An exchange asks "who is the home
mefchan.I" lie is the man who helps
pay for the streets you walk upon, foi
the school where your children, or per.
haps you, were educated; he helps to
keep up the church wherein YOU wor-
ship. He is the man who builds a home
which enhances the value of your prop
erty and enables Il decent newspaper to
be published in your midst, ig he be en-
terprising. Every subscription paper
that is passed. has his name on it. He is
the man who cannot afford to swind!e
you. Self interest, if nothing else,
would prevent this; he bears his share of
good government and stays with you in
sunshine and darkness, in days of pros
perity and adversely. These are but
II few uf the reasons why IL patronage
should be given to the home merchant.

'If a newspaper man knew how many
knocks he received behind his back, he
would adopt another calling" remarked
a citizen the other day. The citizen was
mistaken. The editor who succeeds ex-
poets to be maligned by every lawbreak-
er, swindler and hypocrite, every carping
critic, every lover of notoriety, and in
fact by all persons who do not agree
with him on public and private questions.
The editor who expects to 60 through
life without being misrepresented and
unjustly censured should make arrange

Horn BILE Atrocities.

A letter received in London
from Sierra Leone, west coast
of Africa, says that a Mendi native,
who was with the American ,nis.
sionaries at Rotnfunk, when they
were massacred by the insurgents,
engaged in the uprising against the
importation of the Hut tax, but who
made his escape by resuming his
native garb, furnishes the following
account of the tragedy: "We started
to walk to Sierra Leone, but had
only gone half mile when we met
the war boys, who blocked the way.
The Rev. Mr.. Cain tried to brighten
them by firing a revolver over their
heads, but seeing they were deter
mined to do mischief, he cast his
revolver away and said he would not
have anybody's blood on his hands.
The war boys then seized the party,
and Miss Hatfield, Miss Archer and
Miss Kent, stripped them of their
clothing and dragged them back to
the mission house, in front OF which
the war boys cut down the Rev. Mr..
Cain, and hacked him to death, and
treated Miss Archer and Miss Kent
in the same way Miss Hatfield,
who was very ill, was thrown on a
barbed wire netting, and finally her
throat was cut. Mrs. Cain escaped
to the bush with a native girl, but
the war boys found them and they
we're killed"

He Fought to the Last.

Colonel John Richardson said to
representative of TIE INDEPENDENT
that he liked his trip to Washing
ton very much, and he felt sure that
a great deal OF good had been done
by the visit OF Hawaiians at the
great capital. of the United States.
This was the first trip of Mr..
Richardson out of Hawaii, and he
admits that he has come to the con-
clusion that his native country is
not the whole earth, but merely q
part of it.
He likes snow and sleighing, and
he admires the Niagara falls. He
has met a number OF senators and
does not appear to be extraordi-
narily imbued with respect for these
"rulers" of the destiny of Sour"
country. "The ladies in Washing
ton are charming" said the Colonel
and he wunk wink-"and they
are far better politicians and diplom-
ats than the men,"
Before leaving for San Francisco,
Mr.. Richardson visited friends in
Philadelphia and New York, and
called on the relatives OF his uncle,
the late Sheriff Everett, at Boston.
Colonel Richardson is very proud
of his autograph, album, in which
can be found the names OF President
Mckinley and many prominent
senators, congressman, generals,
diplomats and others.
"If we only had won the day."
said the Colonel with sigh, 1--WE did
all we could"
And right he is.
