The TERRIBLE C0SSACKS.
Are Clans of Born Fighters.-.Russla Rules
Them Lightly.

No wonder the foreigner finds 1t diff
cult to comprehend the exact position
of the Cossacks in the Russian army.
They are not quite regular troops nor
are they really conscripts, as other
Russian soldiers are conscripts.
And yet Russia cannot afford to do
without them, or, for the matter of
that, to allow them to do without her.
Bully whom he will, the great bear of
Europe has to be polite to his Cos
sacks.
Barring the fact that they are not
mountaineers, the Cossacks are the
Highlanders Of Russia-intrepid, proud,
ungovernable by anybody but their
own leaders. Add the typical qualities
of the Arab to those of the Scottish
clansman and you have the Cossack.
In the old days the Cossacks had
their own elected head, king or presi-
dent-a little Of both; they called him
hetmann. Mazeppa, in the nursery
story and the pictures, became Cos
sack hetmann after his exciting expert
ence.
Now the heir apparent to the Rus-
sian throne Is hetmann general OF the
Cossacks. But his dignity Is only
nominal-the subordinate hetmanns OF
the Cossack clans are the real powers
among the Cossack people; the chiefs
of the most important clans being a
sort of minor Russian kings, with the
Czar for suzerain. One Of the most, II
not the most powerful, of these chiefs
Is the "Starost Hetmann," of Ukraine,
who has the title Of "excellency' and
the rank in the Russian army of lieu
tenant general.
The Cossacks, who live principally In
the south and southeast Of Russia, pay
no taxes, and in return act as an irreg-

EVERY DAY ETIQUETTE.

Husbands and wives, in speaking OF
each other to friends and Acquaintance
es, should observe a certain formality
Vulgarity touches bottom when the
pronoun "he" or "she" is used without
the name for which these stand; and
this usage, to be sure, being confined
to out of the way and primitive por-
tions of the country, Is never general
enough to be worth noticing. You will
hear the sun-bonneted woman, with
the straight skirt reaching to her stout
calf-skin shoes, and the marks OF life
long toll and exposure in her hardened
hands, allude to her backwoods part
ner as "he" or as "Tim," never as
my husband" or as "Mr. Smith"
But in more refined circles, where
people know and observe the require
ments Of etiquette, a woman does not
use her husbands Christian name,
much less any abbreviation Of 1t, out
side the narrow confines Of their COM
mon kindred. He is John" or Jack
only among his brothers or sisters, or
to very intimate friends. When his
wife has occasion to speak Of him to
others, she says, my husband" or
"Mr. JONES'" doing the very thing, as a
matter of of course, which the person
who Is economical Of nouns and lavish
Of pronouns, fails to do.
A wife who values her husbands dig
nifty will not regard it as Of little mo-
ment whether she upholds this by
scrupulously speaking Of him with
respect, as we'll as addressing him with
courtesy, his position in the social world
being helped or hindered by her prac-
tice in this regard.
If the man have any official title,
as colonel, judge or governor, doctor
or professor, his wife will use that
title in mentioning him in places and
on occasions and in the presence Of
persons whenever or to whom this
usage will be in good taste.
Equally, husband invariably speaks
of my wife," or Mrs. Brown"
quoting his better half, as good hus-
bands so frequently do.
She is not Mary or Jennie or Marga-
ret to aybody except her own people;
and it is bad form to make the out
side world familiar with her sacred
home name. To children a father nat
urally speaks Of his wife as your moth
er, and in affectionate families 1t is
quite common, and by no means i'm
proper, for parents to address one
another in the hearing Of the little ones
as mamma" and papa.
Every day etiquette is trampled un-
der foot in grim and undemonstra-
tive households, where the pleasant
custom of daily greetings Is, unfortu-
nately, much of the time in abeyance.
Where a grunt does duty for a general
good morning, or an inaudible murmur
is all that is heard when there should
be tender goodnight. Politeness is
a plant Of slow growth.-Harpers
Bazaar.

OBEYED INsTRUcTIoNS.-A certain
charming young lady is visiting friends
on Topeka avenue. She graduated re-
Gently from Kansas university and is
still in her teens. The other evening
she was having a tete-a-tete on the
porch with the youngster who is the
eldest son of her hostess-when the
subject of age was brought up.
And how old are you?" the little
fellow asked.
How old would you think?' came
the reply, and to the young lady's
amusement and his mothers discom-
fort the boy promptly replied:
TWENTY-FIVE"
His mother then told him that when
ever he was asked to guess young
woman's age he must say 80"
Sunday night few friends Of the
Topeka avenue hostess came up. Again
the conversation drifted on age. This
time the young boy thought he would
be all right, so when asked to guess the
age of one Of the young ladies he re-
piled: II guess you are 16, but you are
older than mamma"

HIS PREFERENcE.-The Lady Bounti-
full Of the parish was going her rounds
and called at small cottage occupied
by model" peasant, whose wife had
been an invalid for some months.
And how is Mary today?" inquired
the visitor.
Just about the same, thankee kind
ly, men," was the reply.
did she enjoy those little things
sent her yesterday" asked the lady.
1.-The things come all right, mem, an
will be greatly obleeged, but, if might
make so bold, would ye not send heI
any more of that jelly? Some jam
strawberry jam-would be much more
sootable, men,"
why, doesn't she care for the jelly?'
was the natural query.
"Yes, mem, she do; but can't say as
I does."-London Mail.

A SNAKE BITE CURE.-A Brazilian
doctor claims to have discovered an
infallible cure for snake bites Of all
kinds. In a sworn statement sent to
the Academy of Medicine at Rio de
Janeiro, he says: II neutralize ophtd-
ic poison even after it has entered the
blood in circulation, and when the pa
tient has been overcome by the hemor-
rhage and is blind deaf, with deadly
vertigo, anorexia, only faint pulsa-
tions Of the heart, by administering
two tablespoonfuls of soup containing
two grams of calomel and thirty
grams of strong lemon juice, and re-
peating the dose within two hours.
After the third dose the patient Is
free from danger.

HE'S So OBLIGING.-'Can't make
out how it is that Jim Johnson always
gets such good places" said Harry
Smith, the carpenters son, to another
boy as they were returning home one
afternoon.
And Harry was not the only one
who thought thus, for "Jim's luck
was the talk of the neighborhood.
Jim was certainly no pattern Of clev-
erness, Of beauty, or strength; he could
do no more than others, nor could he
do it so we'll as many; but for all that
it was true that he always had good
places, good wages and good charac-
ter.
When he left one employer to go to
another, it was generally said, II would
not part with him if could help it; he
is good boy and so obliging."
This was the secret Of his good luck;
he was 80 obliging." Did the merchant
or the wagner want an errand boy, or
did any one want job done at mo-
ment's notice, it was only to get sight
of Jim and it was as good as done; for
Jim would hurry through his own bus
mess in order to help.
When he was at home he kept the
woodbox full Of wood, and his mother
never had to ask him to bring buck
ct of water, and many other things did
he do in a cheerful manner; so that he
was a great favorite. And If he saw
younger boys in trouble, he would try
to help them out; and he put on his
shoes, after having taken them off, one
pouring, rainy night, to walk two miles
to town for a parcel containing new
gown. the carrier had neglected to bring
the kitchen girl, who was crying her
eyes out because she could not have 1T
to wear to her sisters wedding the next
morning. But it was not so much that.
Jim did, as how he'did it, that was so
agreeable.

AN ARKANsAw PRIZE VERsE.-An
lola man has taken from his scrap
book for The Mail and Breeze, verse
which is said to have won a prize Of $50
offered by the State Teachers associa-
ton Of Arkansas, for the lines best
rhyming with the name of the state.
The verse is as follows:
The typical girl Of Arkansaw
Can chew msre tobacco than her pa
can chaw.
She can sling q little ink,
She can take a little drink,
And saw more wood than her ma can
saw
This typical girl from Arkansaw.

EVEN LATER.-He had been talking
and talking and talking until the poor
girl was so tired and sleepy that she did
not know whether it was this week or
last week, or come next Sunday, and
the clock on the mantel was holding
up it's hands, either in pity or protest.
Finally it occurred to the young man
that an evening call had it's limits, at
least in a latitude where the nights
were not six months long.
"Bless me-" he exclaimed, starting
up suddenly, 'it certainly must be
time I was going home"
"Oh," she said in a dazed kind of
way, 1T must be a good deal later
than that"

Morning News Office Feb. 24-The fea-
ture of the markets to-day was the adj
vance of &c in cotton, due 70 uhe firmness
of southern spots, and also the good out
side advices. New York went up about
10 points, and Liverpool scored an advance
of It'd These advances contributed
largely TO the good feeling which prevailed
among the Southern trade. After all it
looks like Savannah is to get her fufE
share of cotton, and more too, if the
present rate of increase in the receipts
i, to continue. The total receipts for this
season are ,54S bales, against 974, O4S
bales for the corresponding period last
wear. This shows the shortage under last
wear 10 be less than $4,000 bales. 1t is
generally admitted the chances are not
only favorable for making up this short
age, but running above the receipts for
last year. The cause of the improvement
in the face of shortages at other ports
sDeaks well for the facilities Savannah has
for handling cotton, and the large amount
OF freight room offering at all times for

with fair demand for all lines. The fol-
