DINING OUT.
Hostess Sometimes Depends ON Hair
Trigger Intellects.

Hostess Sometimes Depends on Hair
Trigger Intellects.
If the hostess can catch no comet,
wits, who make up for real brilliancy
by saying what they do say quickly
and spontaneousIy-with the punsters,
in short, and such hair-trigger intel
lects. Failing these, says the presum-
ably humorous Gelett Burgess in Har-
per's Bazaar, the last class above the
bores positive are those well meaning
diners out who load themselves with
stories for a dinner as a soldier goes
into an engagement with a belt full of
cartridges. They may not get a chance
for a shot very often, but, given an
opening, their fire is accurate and
deadly till the last round is gone, when
they are at the mercy of a more in
ventive wit. Yet even these welter-
weights have their place at the table,
for we must have bread, as well as
wine. It was one of Lewis CAROLS
the shape of a ring, and half the
guests seated inside upon a platform
which revolved slowly around the cir
Gle till each one had passed opposite
every guest seated on the outside of the
table. But this would break up many
Of the little secret schemes for which
the modern dinner is planned, and
many a young man would suddenly
find himself flirting with the wrong
lady across the board. And this last
hint carries me from the exoteric to
the esoteric charms of the dinner. Here
however, you must guess your own
way. l dare not tell o precisely
what it. means when Celestine shifts
her glass from left to right of her plate,
nor what l answer when I raise my
serviette by one corner, for Celestine
may dine with you some day, and you
may remember. You would better not
invite me, anyway, for, though l am
not a comet, yet I admit I would be
mad enough to upset the claret pur-
posely rather than have nothing ex-
citing happen.

HeIen GouId,s Handshake.

Miss Gould has an interesting little
handshake. She has evidently learned
that to protect and preserve her own
hand when giving it to hundreds OF
others, she must do most of the ''shak-
ing" herself. She takes the %proffered
level; holds it there for an instant,
then raises 1t quickly in an almost ex.
actly perpendicular line, then suddenly
releases it. She looks directly into the
eyes of the person she is meeting, and
probably not one in a hundred passes
on without carrying with him the con-
viction that the jolly-faced young wo-
man he has just left sincerely enjoyed
the meeting.-Boston Post.

SELF well repaid.
"I have now used Peruna for about
three months and feel completely re-
juvenated. / believe | am permanent
~ cured, and do not hesitate to give
unstinted praise to your great remedy,
Peruna."
The causes of summer catarrh are
first, chronic catarrh; second, derange-
ments of the stomach and liver; third,
impure blood.
Such being the case anyone who
knows anything whatever about the
operations Of Peruna can understand
why this remedy is a permanent cure
for summer catarrh. 1t e~radicates
chronic catarrh from the system, invig-
crates the stomach and liver, cleanses
the blood of all impurities, and there
fore permanently cures by removing the
cause-a host of maladies peculiar to
hot weather. The cause being removed
the symptoms disappear of themselves.

Thrush.

One of the most unpleasant common
diseases of the farm horse is known
as thrush of the foot and consists
in a moist, fetid condition which fire.
quently gives rise to more or less
lameness and always to a foul odor and
unhealthy state of the frog, which is
liable to become serious if not attend
ed to properly and promptly.
On picking up the foot of a horse
suffering from this disease it will be
found that the frog is soft and rotten
and that there is a discharge of white,
foul-smelling matter exuding from the
cleft of the frog and at each side of it.
In very bad cases we also find that the
matter frequently forces its way be-
tween the horny and soft frog and ap-

Growers claim that one of the worst
features is that the insect carries the
spores of the cabbage rot from plant
to plant. In u first illustration we
show the effect of the work of the
curculio. The beetle lays its egg in a
puncture made in the stalk. The grub
that matches from it bores its way
through the stalk as shown and causes
1t to wilt. In our second illustration is
shown the beetle in his various forms.
The length of the beetle, it must be re-
membered. is only about one-eighth
inch.
The entire body of the h~ibernated
specimens is covered with a light-gray
vestiture consisting Of piliform scales,
while newly bred individuals are coat
ed with ochrous scales. The real color
below the scaly covering Is black, and
the older individuals appear leaden-
gray in color, and the fresher ones
fulvous. Such a difference in colora-
ton imparts to the insect quite a dis
tinct appearance.
1t is probable that the cabbage cur
culio was introduced into this country

Missouri Cattle quarantine.

A report from Jefferson City, Mo,
under date Of June 20, says: Cover
nor Stephens has extended the cattle
Canada cattle, and from this date I'M
til the quarantine is lifted no Cana
dian cattle can be shipped into Mis-
souri, until they have been examined
by either the state veterinary or a vet
Urinary surgeon appointed for that
purpose. The examination shall be to
ascertain If the cattle are infected with
tuberculosis. This is the only change
made in the quarantine regulations
which have been in force in the state
for the past year. This disease has
made its appearance among Canadian
cattle, and the Missouri state board Of
agriculture recommended the estab-
lishment of the quarantine, which the
governor promulgated. The quaran-
tine is valid against cattle from the
following states: Maine, New Hamp-

Good dairy COWS are reported scarce
in the markets. There are a good many
cows for sale, but they are not dairy
cows, though they may be sold and
bought for purposes of milk produc-
ton. The Kansas agricultural college
wanted some good COWS, and out OF
fourteen purchased could only get two
of the dairy form. They found that
dairy calves less than two months Of
age were held at $40 per head. Other
reports show that good dairy cows sci
at from $40 to $50 per head. 1t is thu.
evident that a man that wants goot
cows for milk production must raisl
them or pay for them twice what thei
raising would cost, :,

More tDan two months have elapset
and Astoria seems to have got alonI
pretty well without the luxury Of elec
trio street lights. There would seem to b,
little difficulty in bearing with the situa
ton for a while longer. Like asphal
pavements, electric lights are moderI
metropolitan convenience; very nice t.
have, but like so many other good thing
forbidden to people of small pocke
books. Twenty years ago majority Of
the people OF Astoria had perhaps never
even seen an electric light. Astoria was
good town then; some say better one
than she is now. The members OF the
city council who saved the city the large
sum Of money which would have gone IN
pay Tor electric lights in the past two
months, besides the liability for the
thousands of dollars which the light
company undertook to extort by its pro-
posed long term contract. have earned
the everlasting gratitude Of the taxpay-
ers, without the slightest apparent de-
privation to the general public. Asto-
ria's fight over the attempted light ex.
tortion will live a long while in the
memory Of her inhabitants, besides being
an inspiration and encouragement to
hundreds Of other intelligent communi.
mites in their efforts TO emancipate
themselves from the grssping tentacles
Of public utility monopolies, fastened
npon them by improvident or corrupt
municipal enactment By all means let
the good fight in Astoria go on. Let
there be no let up or lag, nor sign Of
weakening. In the language of distin-
guished member Of the Electric Light
and Water Commission, the present Is
not an "opportune" time for Astoria to
indulge 10 electric lights. Not having
the means to buy electric lights, if some
cheaper method Of lighting the streets
cannot be found, let US manage to get
along without any, as the experience of
the last two months has demonstrated
that we can, until such time as in the
opinion Of the august electric light and
water commission the time is opportune
for the resumption of that convenience.
