A Dinner In a serngIio.

We seated ourselves on cushions, and
each took possession of the fiat piece
of scone which supplied the place of u
plate during the meal, those articles
not hGing considered n necessary lux

large bowl full of white soup. from
which everybody ate, taking as many
spoonfuls as they chose from the COM
mon tureen with the long handled
wooden ladies provided for each guest.
When this was removed, large piece
of meat boiled to rags took its place
and was speedily diminished under the
violent treatment it received from us

from the joint with the fingers and
eating 1t off with her own Hat scone.

Two RniIrond Pnsnes.

When its limited express trains were
put on some years ago, the Lake Shore
Railway company decided to charge
extra for the privilege Of riding on
them, and John Newell. who was pres
ident Of the system at that time, gave
orders that passes. half rate tickets,
etc, should not be honored on the eli
ers." 1t was not intended, Of course,
that the compllmentaries issued to high
officials of other roads should be void
on the fast trains, but through an over
sight yearly pass was sent to d. w.
Caldwell, president Of the Nickel Plate,
which bore on its face the words:
mot good on Lake Shore limited
trains"
A few days after Mr.. Caidwelrs pass
had been issued Mr.. Newell received
an annual pass on the Nickel Plate
with the following Endorsement:
''Not good on passenger trains"

died and was succeeded by the latter

Joubert shut his enemies up at all
points with n loss of one to four in
battle.
At Majuba Hill Joubert was outgen-
eraled at the start, but recovered his
grip with remarkable celebrity and
vlgor. The British took advantage of
the trusting nature of the Beers and
stretched the moral law. There was
a truce on, and proposal for peaceful
settlement had been sent into the Boer
lines. Through no fault of President
Kruger answer was delayed beyond
the hour named. but General Joubert
is a man Of peace when possible, and,
believing in the good faith Of General
Colley. he massed his troops In camp.
b leaving Majuba Hill unoccupied. Gen
eral Colley climbed to the summit in
the night with n strong force and at
daybreak looked down upon the Beers
in the plain below. The hill on the
side of the Beers was rocky and pre-

only worse for the Beers. The Con
federates at Gettysburg had better
chance TO dyive the Federals from the
key to the field than had Joubert to
get Majuba Hill from the British. But
the day was lost to the budding Trans
vaal republic unless Joubert retook
no IfI oe L. ell
non for n general on the field, and that
Joubert displayed on the instant at
Majuba Hill when he saw the British
flag flying from the summit. There
was no way Of getting a column to
mount the rocky face of the hill. But
the Beers are as sprightly as the cham
OILS of the Alps. and Joubert ordered
them to climb that hill to the cover
of the brink and from there open on
the enemy. What could be accomplish
ed at long range was done. and the
British found that the hill was safer
at a distance from the brink than 1t
was close to the edge, where the Beers
could be watched, so they fell back to
safe positions and left the Beers to
work unseen.
Suddenly hundreds of Boer rifles
opened on the British from points of
vantage on the summit. Although the
British were sheltered by rocks and
ridges of earth. the bullets struck
home, and General Colley's men began
to grow shaky without so much as see
ing an enemy. A British charge was
proposed, but General Colley thought
best to wait until the Beers got excited
and rushed from cover. But when that
time came it was too late for the Brit
ish. The Boer rush was a tide not to
be stemmed, and so Majuba Hill
stands as a monument to the martial
genius Of General Piet Joubert and n
freedom giving victory.

An Artistic Elevator MN.

Full many flower is born to blush

senate elevate is a genius in disguise,
says a Washington letter.
: The elevator man is a natural artist
During the interval when he is not the
custodian of an ascending or descend
ing statesman he is busy with his pen
c:l, and the result of his work adorns
the elevator car. Like Correggio, who
drew with charcoal on the white
washed wall, because he had neither
pencil nor paper, the elevator man
finds in the daily weather bulletin card
the medium for the display of his tai
ents. Yesterday the card bore an ex-
quisite landscape, diversified with
mountains and water and ships, while
the day before the picture represented
a Venetian street. The chief d'oeuvre
of the artist was copy Of the Venus de
Milo, admirably drawn, who posed in
all her armless beauty above the pro.
sale words: weather cloudy and
warmer, with southwest winds.' The
elevator man is student at night at
the Corcoran art school, and hopes
some day to graduate from his present
job.

RULES FOR SMALL FOLKS.
Sensible Suggestions for Parents
Concerning Their Care in
Summer.

Provide outdoor amusement, or
amusement on the shady side of the
veranda, for children during the in
tense heat of the day (from ~ until
y and on rainy days-at other times
they should be out of doors. They
should never go out in the morning,
however, until they have had some
thing to eat, if only glass of milk
and slice of bread. To play out of
doors before the system has been forti-
fled by nourishment is to court malaria,
and they should be indoors again be-
fore the dew begins to fall. Children
should eat regularly three meals. day.
says the American Queen.
All vegetables and fruits given them
should be absolutely fresh and ripe.
1t is very important that the bowels
of children should be kept regularly
open, and this can be done by judicious
diet. {.
Children are often tormented during
the summer by mosquitoes or other in
sects. They can be protected from
them by sponging weak carbolic acid
on their skin and hair and even on the
clothing, if found necessary. If al
ready bitten elder-flower water applied
to the parts will give relief.
Let the pillows upon which the chill
dren sleep be low and filled with hair,
not feathers. In soft feather pillows
the head sinks low and becomes over
heated.
When a child is asleep don't cover it's
face with handkerchief. Let him have
the full benefit of the air; if it is neces-
sary to cover him to prevent flies or
mosquitoes from disturbing his slum-
Der, throw piece of netting over the
bed or carriage. The child can breathe
through netting, but not through cam
brio.

A use has been discovered for old
spiral car springs. It has been found
that these often contain enough carbon
to permit of making cold chisels.
Forging into. the necessary form is
easy and the additional carbon re-
