A HEROIC CURE,

Saturday Evening POst.-Dr. S.
Weir Mitchell has the reputation
among his patients Of being somewhat
dictatorial in his way Of giving advice.
He certainly expects his commands to
be followed with unquestioning
obedience.
Some years ago DR.. Mitchell had
among his patients a lady who had
been suffering for a long time from
nervous prostration. She was greatly
debilitated by disease and was too
weak to rouse herself to any physical
effort. DR.. MitchelIs first advice
was: Get out in the fresh air. Take
walk"
The doctors medicines were taken
faithfully, but his advice was ignored.
Again and again was his advice given,
and just as often it fell on unheeding
ears. Finally the doctor one day in
vited the invalid to drive with him,
and after much persuasion she was
assisted into the carriage, and the
doctor and patient drove off together.
The horses we're turned down a side
and after two or three blocks had
been passed the carriage stopped, the
doctor jumped out and invited the
lady to descend, and before she could
inquire as to the reason for this,
the doctor had jumped into his car
riage and driven off, leaving the
invalid standing on the sidewalk. She
must perfOrce walk home
The friends Of DR.. Mitchell who tell
the story do not say whether the
patients subsequent improvement il
health was such as to compel her for,
gfveness for this high-handed treat
ment from the brusque old doctor
but it is safe to assume that her state
Of mind at the time was anything
but amiable.

SKATE CALLING.
A Good Sport That Should Be More
Popular.

Considering the number Of persons
in this country that indulge in skat-
ing, it is somewhat Of a surprise to
see how few Of them have ever used a
skate sail, or in fact have ever heard
Of such a thing, says Country Life in
America. However, in the last years
this sport has become better known,
and it is not an uncommon sight to
see dashing thither among the dark
forms Of the skaters the glistening
sails Of the skate sailors.
To the onlooker it seems at the
first glance that the sailor must GER
tainly lose his balance and topple over,
so sharply does he lean backward
against his sail; but so strong is the
force Of the wind exerted against it
that this expected fall is seldom a
reality. When it does happen the
unfortunate is usually novice.
There are but few requisites for the
enjoyment of this pastime. First and
Of the most Importance is pair Of
sharp skates. A few yards of cotton
cloth and some small poles furnish the
rest Of the material. From these any

DEAR FOLDED HANDS.

Dear, folded hands, so worn with care,
So quiet on the pulseless breast,
Will any burden need you there,
If heaven is place of rest?
And you, dear heart, will you forget
The struggles of these lower lands
Or is there some sweet service yet
For folded hands?
Yours was the never-ending task
Born of a never-ending need.
Our selfishness it was to ask,
Your sweet unselfshness to heed.
And now in the unwonted rest
Long promised in the better lands,
How can you sit an idle guest
With folded hands?
No tears to dry, no wounds to bind,
No sufferer to tend and bless
Where will those eager fingers find
A need for all their tenderness?
Yet, knowing all they did before,
Purchance the Father understands,
And holds some precious work in store
For folded hands.
Youths Companion.

Homestead Lands Yet Left.

1t will be surprise to most per-
sons in the east to learn from the
report of Commissioner Hermann of
the general land Office that more
homestead lands were given to set
tiers in 19O1-19O2 than in any previous
year. Uncle Sam still "has land
enough to give us all a farm" H
gave away 19,488, $50 acres last year
enough to make 10000 average

port 100000, including families and
farm laborers. In addition $6,250,0 900
was obtained from land sales and
fees, says the New York World. And
900,000,000 acres and more remain I'M
claimed-enough to last forty-five
years, even at the presen rapid entry

Not Hers.

Oliver Wendell Holmes enjoyed
nothing so much as a clever retort,
even if it happened to be at his own
expense. One day, at an entertain
ment, he was seated near the refresh
ment table and observed a little girl
looking with longing eyes at the good
things.
With his invariable fondness for
children he asked kindly, care you
hungry, little girl?"
Eyes sir was the reply.
"Then why don't you take sand
Wich"?
Because I haven't any fork"
Fingers were made before forks,
said the doctor, smilingly.
The little girl looked up at him and
replied, to his delight, "Not my fin

INDIANS PICK HOPS.
Earnings of the SiWash Tribe of Puget
Sound.

Siwash Indians from Puget Sound
and British Columbia do most of the
hop picking in western Washington,
and the annual migration from the
reservations to the hop yards has al
ready taken place. The dusky red
man is valuable to the growers, and in
many instances superior to the white
picker. The growers pay 81 box,
and the average luck can earn 81 a
day. This, added to the return from
the labors of his squaW and children,
swells the Siwash exchequer to a
goodly size. Picking lasts between three
and four weeks, during which war
dances, big feasts and the other cere-
monies so dear to the Indians are
tabooed until the final celebration,
which invariably takes place when
the harvest is over. The growers sup
ply both Indian and white pickers
with vegetables and fuel free of cost,
and all hands are thus enabled to
save from $50 to $50 during the sea-
son. 81
