after the journey was over.

The Region of Snow.
From the Naw York Sun.


"Even the horses here have to wear
snow shoes, or they would be useless; and
when you hear man talk about breaking
horse in Plumas county, you can know
that it is not riding, but snowshoeing he
refers to. About one horse in ten will
make a good snow shoer, and it is ex-
tremely difficult for horse to walk with
them. The shoes are made of Norwegian
steel, about eight inches square, and are
covered with leather or rubber, according
to the taste of the maker There are two
holes in them through which fit the points
or ice picks of the regular shoe. These
shoes weigh several pounds apiece, and
are fastened over the hoof with iron and
leather bands. Without them horse
would be helpless in Plumas, and it Is a
curious sight to see them. At first it
comes hard: the horses stumble and often
falls down, but once the trick is acquired
they walk, and even trot, easily, lifting
each foot and setting it down so that it
Just avoids the other.
aIt's great day when the mail ar
rives, but it's greater sight to see the
mail carrier champion ski rider-com-
ing down the mountain. When he is seen
at the top of the hill there is shout, and
the next minute he shoots down at mile
a-minute rate.
"You might think that such life would
not be worth living, but we get used to 1t,
and we have our parties and entertain
ments under the snow just as well as out
side The great amusement of the conn
try is ski racing. Every town has one or
more clubs. and men have beaten mile
a minute and the fastest railway train ever
ran. You couldn't get around in our
country without skis, SO every one has
them. They are strips of board about
eight feet long, four inches wide and very
thin. The ski maker is a big man, and
while all skis may look alike to you there
is supposed to be the greatest difference in
their make, and some that have brought
their owners in winners in many races
can't be bought for love or money.
1.-The great point in the ski is to have
the groove down the centre perfectly true,
and to get polish on the bottom that will
beat that of the other man; and about
every ski racer has some particular dope,
which he considers the best, and no State

Holding His Own.

Even the latest inventions cannot do
away with all time honored methods A
farmer of the old school made this very
plain the other day.
His wife wanted some tacks, and he
went into the village ironmonger's to buy
package. The shopkeeper thought he
saw an opportunity.
"Tll tell you what you want, said he.
"You want bicycle to ride round your
farm on. It'll save you time and money.
They're cheap now, dirt cheap at fifty
dollars -
The farmer scratched his chin.
"Td rather put the money into COW,
he said
"But think, - replied the shopkeeper,
loosely; ''think how foolish YOU d look
riding round town on COW. -
''Well," said the farmer, 81 don I
known. Perhaps / shouldn't look SO
much more foolish than | should milkin' a
bicycle r.
And he bought the tacks.

secret is better guarded The ski is rubbed
over with tar and beeswax, then polished
until it is a mirror, and then the mysteri-
Gus dope is put on and rubbed in until it
is hard work to stand on the ski; they
seem to want to fly off into the air.
"When the big races are on all the
clubs meet at famous track, which really
is about 1000 feet of the side of steep
mountain, coated with icy snow, SO slip
perry that once started you go as though
shot out of gun, even if you are lying on
your back trying to hold back; and so your
speed when mounted on the wing like skis
can be imagined There are purses of
from $50 to $500 for the events, and
when the day comes every man, woman
and child who can get out is there.
"The men selected as the cream of all
clubs line up on the edge of the glass-like
slope. Each man has or 10 foot pole
with which he can push himself off, and
each man has his own method of riding
but there is one thing, they all go at a
pace that takes the breath away from a
novice It's simply dash; you see them
whizzing through the air, as it were, and
they are there, one always in the lead,
owing to his special dope. The winner
is made much of, and the crowd goes to
the hotel, if there is one, or to some house,
and ball follows to celebrate the event;
and generally there are three days of racing
and three dances.
"The people are very social, and when
the snow is very deep parties go out to
help keep the chutes clear, splice CHM
news, or have a dance So the winter
wears away, and in summer you would
never believe that Plumas and Sierra had
been buried out of sight many time.
About the only suspicious things are the
marks on the trees-boards that have been
nailed on 35 feet from the ground when a
man could stand on the snow and do it;
these marks being nailed to trees between
towns and mines, so that when the heavy
SHOWS cover up everything else these can
be seen. These, and the tall chimneys
and the sloping roofs, are the telltales of
the heavy SHOWS.

How tn Suocaad

IF you speak the right word at the right
time; if you are careful to leave good
impression; if you do not trespass upon the
rights of others; if you always think of
others as well as yourself; if you do not
forget the courtesies which belong to your
position, you are quite sure to accomplish
much in life which others with equal abil
tiles fail to do. This is where the race is
not to the swift nor the battle to the strong.
1t is where you make people feel that you
are unselfish and honorable and truthful
and sincere. This is what society is look
ing for in men, and it is astonishing how
much men are able to win for self respect
and usefulness who possess these qualities
of good breeding. 1t is almost the turn
ing point of success in practical life. Peo
pie will not, in the long run, have about
them persons who make themselves often
sive, and they yield position and influence
quickly and gracefully to persons who
make themselves useful in general way.
This is the point where friends are at once
most forgiving and most exacting. They
will overlook great neglects if they can be
assured of the loving heart behind the out
ward slight; but the moment you do rude
things in a rude spirit and with personal
GOODNESS and selfshness the friendship is
severed. This is why the best friends
make the bitterest enemies. 1t may be
set down as rule that one can never af-
ford not to be gentleman, 1t is best to
learn this rule early and practice it late.
1t is not well to say mean things Of anoth-
er, because in most cases you will have to
take back all in bitterness of heart when
he does you an unexpected favor. 1t is
not wise to treat anyone brusquely, because
you can not always judge bird by the
feathers it has on 1t is not well to look
down on anybody, because the time may
come when he may look down on you.
There is "A certain self hood in everyone
that should be respected. We have no
right to infringe upon it. 1t is not moral
ity, it is not mere conventional rule; it
is something in the nature of things, that
you should always show delicate regard
for others. One who does not fail here is
never known utterly to fail elsewhere.
