Profound Profanity
Heap Big Cuss Words-All on Ac-
count Of the Clerk 5 carelessness


There is one Chickasaw Indian
in this section who understands
enough Of the English language to
make a native American take a
back seat when it comes to using
Fcuss" words. Yesterday he en-
tered a hardware store and pur-
chased box Of cartridges. The
clerk tied them MP for him and ne
elected to break the string. The
noble red man did not notice the
action of the clerk bit took his
package and walked out. The
string unwound as he advanced.
II took the glasses off an old man S
nose and they were shattered on
the sidewalk. A well-dressed com
mercial traveller passed along and
his hat was lifted from his head by
the small twine and deposited in
the street A young lady with a
bran new Easter hat is bemoaning
the loss Of some trimmings, and
a Mexican tamale peddler was
sawed" across his eye and the
Spanish oaths made the
atmosphere blue. In fact.
every person except the young
lady who had the misfortune to
come in contact with this piece of
twine did some pretty tall cuss-
iug.' But when the chickasaw
looked back and saw the havoc he
had unconsciously created in his
wake the people near there had to
stop their ears, the air was so full
Of profound profanity. Verify
how great a matter little FIRE
kindleth.n

THE
ADVANTAGES OF
ELECTRIC LIGHTS

are so apparent that we are almost
ashamed to talk about them. They
stick right out like the nose of your
face, but, as Marcus Aurelius
might have said, if he had thought
Of it, "If man blow not his own
horn, the same it shall not be
blowed. And our Office boy says
he'll be blowed if he can see why
we should hide our light under a
half bushel.
Ro to save argument we are will
ing to admit that there is no light
that even approaches the electric
light in quantity of light radiated
all around the room.
The quality of the light you can
see for yourself. Electric lights
give strong, clear, vivid write
light. That is what is demanded
today, pure, white light and plenty
of it.
If our points are not clear to you
it is undoubtedly due to the fact
that yonr light is poor. If you
will put in a full equipment of elec-
trio lighes the whole subject will be
made beautifully luminous and we
viii have. peace in the family.

EsQUIMAUx HOMES.

In the selection of building site the Behring Strait Esquimaux chooses a
 bank near the shore, with a gentle slope toward the south. Here he ex- cavates with his whalebone shovel a
 place ten or twelve feet square and
 about six feet deep. Level with the floor he digs tunnel three and one-half Or four feet square out to the hillside, and here he sets up drift wood inclo- sure, with an opening at the top large enough to admit one person at time. In all the long winter months, when the snow-drifts keep the subterranean res ident confined for weeks at a time, but little snow finds it's way through this
 opening. Moreover, as the heat rises to the top, little of it escapes through the tunnel
 The room thus excavated is studded closely with drift-wood, of which there is always an abundance; a rafter is placed at each corner, reaching to a square frame or skylight in the center. This is covered with the intestines of seals or walrus, instead of glass The spaces between the rafters are filled out with brush, whalebone, split logs or odds and ends of boards found along the beach. This thatch is covered with
 sod or loose ground, and the home is complete-a home warm and comforta ble, and one that offers no obstruction to the almost continual north wind from January to the middle of May
 As rule no fireplace is found in these underground dwellings,. But little
 cooking is done The natives live on dry fish, stored up in summer, or on
 raw frozen tomcods caught through the ice by the women in the winter. This,
 with seal oil, blubber and seal meal, constitutes the entire diet. Knives, forks and spoons are unknown. The
 men find an excellent substitute in their first and second fingers, which they dip into the tray of seal oil and lick with gusto. The women use three fingers and the children all four.
 For the young people of the family, | or families--for they crowd into one hut as many as possibly can find sleeping room-a platform six feet long is con- structed, the entire width of the room,
 midway between floor and ceiling.
 Here the boys and girls rest their limbs in months of slumber, the floor being reserved for the old folk. Upon enter
 ing the room the Esquimau carefully brushes from his clothing every parti-
 cle of snow. Then, taking off his arti- ga, he sits nude to the waist, chatting until bedtime. Bedtime is any hour when the elders of the household feel
 Ike going to bed.-Harper's Round Ta- ble.

BROKE DOWN FOUR BEDS IN ONE
 NIGHT.

K. D. Urquhart of Lynchburg, Va, destroyed as many beds as Samson did Philistines. He is feet 6 inches tall and weighs between $50 and 400 pounds. When asked what he did for sleeping arrangements. MT Urquhart said last night. II broke down four beds in one night over in North Carolina several years ago. AS rule, though I do not have much trouble. never have any at all when I stop at good hotels. but on the night when broke down four beds I was stopping at the hotel of a man who wanted to realize about 800 per cent. on his investment. He had four beds in one room, and he assigned me to that room. There were not many persons at the hotel that night, or pos- sibly would not have broken down all the beds. If he had the opportunity he would have given me & roommate. But he didn't I went up and about thitry minutes after I got In bed all the slats fell from beneath me-, ard I got up and crawled into bed No. 2, It lasted lit- tie longer than. the first one, but at last it went the same way, and the two others were gone before o'clock in the morning. I always have trouble at cheap hotels" he continued with sigh, as he measured his titanic proportions with his eye.--Louisville- Courier-Jou nal.

HOW OIL PIPES ARE CLEARED

hOW OlL FlFEo A1tE1 -Ol4E4tAfEiJ.
 The long pipes that carry crude pe- troleum from the oil wells to the re- fineries many miles distant are clenaed by an ingenious device. As the oil flows through these underground con- dults some of the paraf1ne in the fluid incrusts the sides of the pipe and proves a serious hindrance to the free passage of the current of oil. The device that is used to remedy this evil is knife about two feet in length, with sharp edge, constructed like the thread of a screw; indeed the knife resembles a huge headless screw. It is, of course, slightly smaller than the pipe through which it is to pass.
 When the thickness of the crust of paraffine renders a cleaning necessary this instrument is in erted in the pipe at the oil fields. The pressure of the stream of oil drives it forward, revolv- ing rapidly as it hurries along, and twists and cleanses in this manner throughout its whole journey, and finally drops from the pipes in the midst of the vast stream of petroleum that empties into the receiving tanks. It's edges are duller than when it set out on it's journey, but otherwise it is in perfect condition. It is at once ship sharpened and laid away until its ser vices are again needed.-Omaha Bee.

 The Hamburg American Line an- nounces an enterprise which surpasses all previous undertaking in the direction of pleasure traveling. It consists of two tours around the world in one of the surperb twin screw cruising steam CTS of the company's fleet the Princes sin Victoria Luise, The starting point of the first tour is Hamburg on Septem- Der 25th. Patrons from the United States who may take the cruise will of course be taken from New York to Hamburg by the regular steamers of the lines sailing from this port. After touching at Dover. the day after clear ing from Hamburg the itinerary will be to Lisbon, Gibraltar. Genoa. Athens. Constantinople, Jafa and Port Said.
 After passing through the Seuz Canal the first and longest stop will be at Bombay, where the tourists will spend over four days. Passengers wishing to make the overland trip through India to Calcutta leave the ship here and win | have IS days for this interesting tour l including visits to all principal inter view points such as Delhi, Agra, Jey- pore. etc. From Bombay the F. ". Luise continues to Ceylon and thence to Calcutta, where a somewhat longer stay will be made: other points of Asia that will be touched are Singapore, Manila. Hong Kong, Shanghai, Naga- saki, Kobe and Yokohama Over two weeks will be allowed for Japanese ports, and splendid arrangements have been made to visit the interesting places in land. On the way across the Pacific stops will be made at Honolulu and Hilo,
 l According to schedule the Prinzessin | Victoria Luie is due to arrive at San Francisco on January 17th, 1905, 1905; IA days after leaving Hamburg. At San Francisco the excursionists will re- ceive their railroad transportation to LnelF VdrlOuS QeStluAIlOHSs dS SpeCllleu covered by the ship between New York, and San Francisco is 25,890 miles.
 On January 24th, 1905 the Prinzessin l Victoria Luise will clear from San Francisco on the return trip. Passen- gers who take this trip will receive their railroad transportation from New York or from their homes to San Francisco, accoding to their various contracts. The same ports will be touched on the re- l turn trip that were made by the steam CT on her way out, and return from Hamburg to New York can be arranged 1 for on the regular. service of the Ham burg Ameican Line. An interesting feature of the trip is that the passen- 1 gers will make the ship their hotel at all points visited except where they go so far inland as not to be able to reach I the ship. For the information of pros pective patrons the company has pre- pared very complete and attractive pamphlet, giving every conceivable de- tail regarding the journey, together with descriptions of the places to be visited and numerous illustrations of many of them.
