THE LITERARY WORLD

This February issue of Loslies
Monthly is full oil entertaining features,
ana while the number has a decidedly
individual character, it appeals by its
variety to the most diverse tastes. For
those who love the water, there is an
article on the Fishermen OF the Great
Lakes, a race trained to one of the
most fascinating Of trades. For the
lover of art there is a pleasant paper
of remin scences Of Rldgway Knight
filed with beautiful illustrations. For
those who prefer adventure the Sand
Hogs of Caisson Sinking will prove
absorbing. and all who care for the
study Of human nature will read with
keen interest the true history of THE
Last of the Fighting Editors" a class
which has given to the journalism Of
the West and South its piquant flavor
The strong, fresh interest in history
which the crowding experiences of lhe
last four years have given to the men
and women of the United States, is
abundantly recognized. The best his
torian of the navy, John r. Spears,
contributes a paper upon the "Mutiny
on the S0mers, that extraordinary
occasion when, to preserve the disci-
pline of the American navy, a son of
the United States secretary of war was
hung at the yard arm. And atten-
I ton is called to a charming romance
of history: "Grandslr's Charge" which
takes fer its text the dramatic situa-
tion depicted upon the cover of the
magazine, the Surrender Of General
Burgoyne." The fiction in this mum
Der maintains a particularly high
standard. Among all Mrs. CullOch-
/ Williams stories there is nothing
more effective than "Martenas Cu'yus
/ Ways" a story Of negro life. and the
Salvation of Tobias Miller by VIII
| liam r. Lighton, forms a capital Sc

Anecdote OF Sims Reeves.

An operate singer tells the following
little known anecdote relating to the
late Mr.. Sims Reeves. About, the mid
die of the sixties, while the eminent
tenor was living in hotel of a town
on the south coast, he made a wager
with another guest that he would black
his face, proceed to the beach and sing
a few of the songs which had made
him famous without recognition. Sims
Reeves duly disguised himself and rem
dered to sparse audience Tom Bowl
ing" "My Pretty Jane ETC.; but.
strange to say, he did not receive much
in the way of appreciation or financial
tributes from the beach loungers. Hat
in hand the tenor approached an elder
ly gentleman who was standing apart
and requested a trifiings hOnorarium,
but the stranger had recognized the
great vocalist despite his ebon hued
skin, and he replied with decision:
Not this time, Mr. Sims Reeves! My
wife is mad about your performances,
and you have cost me many aguinea.
You have just treated me to the luxury
of listening to you without any ruin
GUS expense being attached,p
y "Confound YOU" said Reeves, you
have made me lose my bet! Come to
my hotel and have a drink
The stranger accepted the nospitable
invitation

SMALL CALDER RIFLES.

How They May BE Kept Clean With
a Squirt of Water.
'sNow, I'll tell you something that
viii save you the trouble and expense
of bringing this gun to me again" said
the expert gunsmith to the owner of
% caliber magazine rifle, the barrel
OF which had become so foul that 1t
would not shoot true.
"The rifles of this gun are not lead
ed. They are simply caked up with
powder. All small caliber rifles get
that way when ordinary, soft bullets
are shot out of them. This caked pow
der Is as hard as steel, and if were
to try to get it out with instruments
would ruin several dollars worth of
tools. Water is the thing to use. Wa
ter is the greatest solvent known, but
very few people. particularly people
who handle guns, seem to appreciate it..
They nearly always try to clean their
gun barrels with oil when water will
do the work twice as well.
"You use this rifle mostly for shoot,
ing frogs, don't you? thought SO.
That is what most men use % cali
Der for. And you sometimes shoot 1t
several hundred times day, and you
find it too much trouble to wipe it out
every few shots. Amt right? knew
it, Now, let me tell you what to do.
Get small syringe that you can carry
in your vest pocket, and after every
ten or twelve shots squirt syringeful
Of wafer into the barrel of your gun
from the breech, then shoot cartridge
out of it while it is wet If you will
follow this plan, you can shoot your
gun 10000 times and never need to
clean it. The water softens the powder
that has accumulated in the rifles and
the bullet forces it out.
use plenty of water in the barrel OF
your rife, very little oil in the lock,
and never under any circumstances put
coal oil in the works, and you will save
yourself much vexation and always
have a smooth working gun."-St. Lou

strange Funerals.

A Chinese funeral, so the Celestials say
never proceeds straight from the house Of
mourning to the graveyard. The devil i
always on the lookout for funerals and
follows them to seize the soul of the dead
man, so that in order to outwit the evil
one the bearers take the body and start
with it in brisk trot, while the packs OF
frecrackers and pyrotechncs emitting a
dense smoke and vile smell are set of
just as the procession starts. Having
thus deceived Old Nick as to the direction
taken BY the bearers they run as fast as
they can with the body, then suddenly
turn corner while more fireworks are
burned. The devil cannot turn corner
easily, cad so, if really in pursuit. be
shoots on by, and by means of a good deal
of sudden turning and stopping and a
lavish expenditure of fireworks the flu
neral procession generally gets to the
grave in safety.

For the Marache.

Earache. SO often common with little
children. is severe pain and is usually
accompanied with sharp scream. The
pain Is likely to be prolonged and contin-
uous. Twenty drops Of warm water
should be put into the ear and poultice
of fiaxseed applied warm. but not too hot,
or the hot water bag may be held against
the ear. A good device Is to fill the little
finger OF kid glove with hot salt and in
sert this in the ear before the heat is APP

THE APPARATUS.

row board two and one-half feet long
across the top of it, midway between the
rods. You will now have structure con-
tanning five oblong compartments, open at
the top and bottom and closed at the ends
by the swinging doors. Beginning at one
end number the doors on one side of the
apparatus 10, 20, 80 40, so. Now pro-
cure three large balls, croquet balls pre-
ferred, and your game is ready.
To play the game each contestant
stands at distance of thirty feet and
rolls the balls, one at time, along the
ground at the little doors, the object being
to send the ball with just force enough so
that it enters one of the doors on the side
toward the player yet does not go out
through the corresponding door on the OPP
posite side. OF course the larger the
number ON the door of the compartment
in which the ball remains, the larger the
count for the player. The game con-
tinues, the players-of which there may
be any number-each taking his turn at
bowling the three balls until some one
has 200 points.-Lyman Fl. North in
