WHEN TEDDY SMITH,.

When Teddy Smith first put on pants.
He felt so very grand
He wouldn't mind his mother,
Or he wouldn't hold her hand.
But on the street he walked ahead,
. And tried to whistle some.
He thought perhaps he'd go to war,
And fire an awful gun.
He wouldn't ride his hobby-horse.
He called Jack Spratt "a fib!"
He sat at meals in fathers chair.
And scorned his Bingham bib.
His mother mustn't spread his bread.
Nor cut things on his plate;
She mustn't say: mo more. my dear"
No matter what he ate.
She mustn't kiss him when he fell
And bumped him on the stones,
And she must say: Dear sir" just as
She did to Mr.. Jones!
So hard to please this gentleman
His loving mother tried,
It quite enlarged his dignity,
And swelled his lofty pride.
And all was brave and all was well,
Until that mother said,
At eight o'clock: "Of course, dear sir.
You'll go alone to bed!''
All, would you have me say what then
Befeal the great big man?
For IL you undertake to guess
I hardly think you can!
He turned the corners of his mouth
Most fearfully awry,
He rubbed his grown-up fist awhile
Across his grown-up eye,
Then burying in his mothers lap
Both pride and manly joy,
He said in just the littlest voice:
II guess I'm just boy!"

panion.

All About Tea.

Tea should never touch metal. 1t
should be kept in paper, wood, glass or
porcelain. To make it, put small
quantity in a porcelain cup, fill the lat
ter with boiling water, cover it with a
porcelain saucer and let it stand three
minutes. Then, if you desire to be an
epicure, drink only the upper layer of
the golden liquid, throw the rest away,
rinse the cup and begin again. Never
use sugar. Do not use milk. It ruins
the favor of tea, and the combination
Injuries the stomach. So the Chinese
say, and they ought to know their own
beverage. Above all things do not boil
tea.
The younger the leaf the better the
quality of the tea. Glover tea" is
made from the buds with the down still
upon them. - @~'

NEPAL's YOUNG KING.


~ g
Sumshere Jung is the name of the
young king Of Nepal, one of the stran-
gest governments and countries in the
world. It lies between Thibet and In
dia, and contains the highest noun
tains of the Hottest of the earth's
ranges, the Himalayas. This little king
has 100000 Of the best warriors in the
continent Of Asia at his back, and it IL
therefore easy for him to command the
respect of all the neighboring tribes
and governments. Even the English
remain on friendly terms with him and
hire some of his soldiers to help them
conquer the Hindus. =
The people of Nepal are strange
mixture of races.
The ruling tribes are the Ghoorkas,

A SLIP SOMEWHERE

AS a newspaper man, I had been
through the jail at Black Hill with the
sheriff, and he had introduced me to
Dan Needham, who was charged with
stage-robbing and killing. Dan didn't
look fierce enough, according to my
way of thinking, for such a terrible
man as they made him out to be, but
there was proof sufficient to hang him.
We were sitting on the steps outside,
when a body of 40 men rode up. AS
the leader dismounted he said to the
sheriff:
"Well, Joe, you got Dan Deedham in
here, haven't you?" 49,. +.
Eyes, had him three days. was the
reply. =.
"We've come to hang him."
"Shoo! Why don't you give up to the
aw?''
"Better to hang him. Coin to make
any fuss about it?'
Don't see how I can, but I'm agin
SIGH hangin's. Thar's allus a chance
of slip somewhar's, you know. Hang

But this is the right man, Joe. Jest

Half dozen of us went in together
When the robber was brought out OF
his cell he looked about him and quiet
ly asked:
SWELL, what you fellers want?"
"Goin' to hang you!" was the brief
reply.
Without any trial?"
Fright off now.'
''Wall, I reckon you WILL" said the
man, and he followed the crowd out
doors without another word. He was
mounted on horse in front of one of
the men, taken two miles out of town
and hanged to limb. Some of the citi-
zens who went out came back at the
end of an hour and reported, adding
that the victim was perfectly cool and
made no protests. This was at IL
O'Clock in the morning. At three in the

Evidence of Indignation.

Evidence of Indigestion.
Goodness of feet and limbs is almost
invariably an evidence OF indigestion.
The GOODNESS Us due not to the weakness
of the heart or feebleness of circulation,
as is generally supposed, burt to the
contraction of the small arteries, pre-
venting blood from entering the parts.
There is generally an irritation of the
abdominal sympathetic nerve eenters
which control the circulation of the
lower extremities. This difficulty is not
to be removed by exercise or by any spe-
cial application to the limbs, but by re-
moval of the causes of irritation. This
may be prolapsed stomach or chronic
indigestion. Hot and cold footbaths
are valuable. These act not simply
on the feet and limbs, but by reflex
action affect benefcially the abdominal
sympathetic centers, which are in a
diseased condition.

Pretty Window Haneines.

White muslin curtains for windows
will be much used this year in summer
houses. The frilled border is out of
fashion and an embroidered open-work
edge DIS in vogue. That this launders
more easily than the frilled edge may
be one secret of it's popularity. These
curtains with the fiat open-work bor-
der and an embroidered design scat
tered over the surface may be bought
for a very small sum. The new dotted
Swiss curtains with scalloped edge
are extremely dainty and pretty for
summer draperies. The dot is large
enough to be conspicuous.

THE ANGLER.
1t Does Not Eat Much in Captivity,
a. q Rule, But 1t Sometimes
Takes Big Mouthfuls

Big and clumsy as it is, and lacking
in sensitiveness as it may seem, the
angler is difficult to keep long alive
in captivity, one reason being that it
is hard to get it to eat. Anglers have
been kept at the aquarium in this city
six months, but that is believed to be
record time. While as a rule the angler
in captivity refuses food and can be
brought to eat only after long time
and by persistent effort, there comes in
occasionally an angler that has not
quite left it's appetite behind it. There
is a 30-pound angler at the aquarium
now that has been there about ten
days, and began to eat within two or
three days after it's arrival, taking for
its first meal a founder weighing about
a pound.
The founder is, in it's shape, well
adapted to fit the anglers mouth,
which is, in proportion to the size of
it's body, even bigger than the mouth
of the alligator. The angler is of
very different shape from the alligator,
being more scow built, and with it's
forward end rounding like the end of
a great stubby-shaped platter. Its
mouth, which opens from side to side,
extends back for about third of the
length of its body, making it, instead
of long and deep, like the alligator's
mouth, broad and deep, or more on the
cellar-door pattern.
A day or two after eating the foun-
der this angler tooka two-pound hake,
whole, and, as it prefers its food alive,
the hake, impaled on the end of rod,
was held down in the water and shaken
gently, to give it the semblance of life.
1t was held thus for a moment in the
anglers open mouth and presently the
angler dropped its trunklid and shut
the hake in and gulped it DOWN.. Y.

OF course this rajah is too young

the power of the ruler is absolute, and
he can order life or death for anyone

bones, leaving those that are soft and
flexible. It should weigh about 21s
pounds when prepared. Dredge about
q tablespoonful of salt and an even tea
spoonful of pepper. Stuff it with a we'll
seasoned veal stuffing. Roll it up and
tie it into shape. Lay it in any flat-bot-
toned shallow saucepan, with cover
that has no solder about it.

to hold gallon, and should be at least
nine inches across the top, in order to
be broad enough. Rub the roll of veal
with butter, dredge it with flour, slice
an onion over it and a carrot Put a
pint of rich brown gravy or stock over
it, cover it and set it in a hot oven to
braise- Basic it every Is minutes. AS
the stock boils down add boiling water
to thin it, and continue the cooking in
thisway until the meat has been praised
for at least two hours, or until it is a
very rich brown in color and perfectly
done.

made as follows: Brown over the fire
two onions minced fine. Soak loaf of
bread freed from it's crust in cold wa
ter for Is minutes. Press out the wa
ter with the hands from the soaked
bread. Add two or three whole eggs,
a tablespoonful of salt, teaspoonful
of pepper, a tablespoonful of sage
leaves, three skinned sausages and a
teaspoonful of parsley. Add the mince
of fried onions, and after thoroughly
mixing the forcemeat rub it through

Hints About Summer Portieres.

The draperies in the summer house
have much to do with it's effect. Take
away from the house the pretty cur
tains that drape the walls, windows
and doors and it will assume decided
ly bare appearance. Among the new
materials for draperies that are within
the means of women who are planning
for the summer home is snow flake
cloth. 1t is very light tan in color-al-
most cream-scattered with fiaky white
dots and showing striped silk bor-
der in china blue, sage green or old
rose. The silk border is also in Roman
'colors. Another new portiere, some
what more expensive, is of Bombay
cloth with a large empire design en-
broiderssd in tinsel. For library this
is very effective in wood brown with
the design in cream white outlined with
gold threads.
