A Soft Answer.

It was in 1872 that George Chesmore
Bromley, author of Long Ago and
Later On" became a member of the b.
hemia club of San Francisco and soon
found himself "Sire of the Low Jinks,"

especially his arrival at home after

arose and looked for herself. What

No landmarks can be seen There is
nothing by which to direct course. A
man may easily be lost and wander un-
til overcome. Too often this has hap
pened, and hardly winter has passed
without some such disaster.
A man so lost will often trust to the
instinct Of the dogs to find way
home through the bewildering storm
and gloom. Sometimes, however, even
the animals have been at fault In a
recent case a fisherman with three
dogs was overtaken on the homeward
way by a sudden tempest of wind and
snow. TO see even few feet must
have been impossible, and even the
dogs must have been overcome with
fright or found that they were unable
to guide themselves in the right di-
rection. Still, though two were loose.
they did not desert the man: When
the searching parties found him. on4the
following day he was dead, frozen to
death, but the dogs with him were
alive. One dog, which had not been
embarrassed, was mad, however, and
had to be killed at once.-GeOrge Hib-
bard in Harper's Magazine.

LOVERS ASKED BY UNION
~ SIGN A NEW SCALE OF
WAGES.
. Must Be Settled Thursday or
Strike May Be Ordered in
WaIa WalIa.

,rnIess the employing butchers of
walla walla and the Butchers union
IAN come to some understanding as to
49, scale of wages to be paid by
,,,rsdav night, there is strong prob
.si,,tv of a strike being inaugurated.
Tor some time the Butchers union has
haen working on a new scale OF wages
- ba maid by all the shops in the city.
,r,o scale calls for $3.50 per day, which
.,o members of the union believe is
all anm1gh. On the other hand the
.ronrietors of the shops are maintain
ing that SO per day is all that they can
stand.
y A committee of the union called on
oil Of the proprietors yesterday and
asked them to sign the scale. Only
one proprietor affixed his signature to
tho document and last night a confer
once was held by the union commit
too and the employers. The session
uas quite extended, but 81 was impos-
sibIe to reach an agreement. The mat
fer is still pending and the union has
issued an ultimatum that unless the
scale is signed up by Thursday night
that all the union men will walk out.
1t is claimed by the largest en-
Movers in the city that in some of the
shops a number of the butchers are re-
ceiving more than the scale called for
NV the union, while in some other
@Aops the wages are a trif1e lower.
Should the scale be signed it would
probably result in those men who are
receiving the top wages being cut
down.
A strong effort will be made tomor-
row to reach an agreement and both
the employers and the union hope to
amicably settle the matter in order
that a strike may be averted.

Let Baby Sleen.

A young infant ought to spend the
greater part Of its time asleep. In fact,
the two great duties Of it's life are feed
ing and sleeping, and the second ought
to occupy much more time than the
first. Never allow a baby to be reused
from it's sleep even to see the most
important Of visitors. Remember that
it is often politeness and not affection
which makes people ask to see the
baby and do not let the little one be
aroused from its slumber. When it
has rested long enough it will wake
naturally, but to be suddenly reused
often causes considerable shock to It's
nerves and injury to its health.

Economy and Electric Stoves.

There is a growing use Of electric
stoves and other devices Of a similar
character, which is not surprising If
one remembers that in addition to the
convenience of an electric stove it is
economical, due to its method Of use.
1t costs only cent to run chatting
dish or teakettle for fifteen minutes.
A broiler suitable for family Of five
persons will broil steak in about five
minutes at a cost of only about ~
cents. A heating pan costs only three
quarters of cent every hour of its
USE Doubtless if the cheapness Of this
elegant method Of cooking and heating
becomes more generally recognized its
use will increase more rapidly.-Elec-
trical Review.

ChamOis Skins.

Channels skins are considered indis-
pensable to the toilet. but they are an
injury rather than a benefit if not kept
perfectly clean They stand washing
like a pocket handkerchief if treated
to lukewarm water and pure soap.
Face powder rubbed into a clean
chamois skin will keep the skin free
from the disagreeable shiny appear
ance that characterizes the face of a
neglectful woman. 1t can be used as
often as you please without possible
injury to the finest skin.

HOusekeepers Who Worry.

Lamb with worry sauce is no better
than lamb without mint sauce, and nei-
Their can compare to lamb with nice
dressing of chopped vegetables.
Nor are the pies any better for the
fact that they are worried into the pan
and worried out and worried even to
the table
Instead of fretting invent new dish
and study the cookery pictures and try
to get up something like them. That is
the best and most original way to set
good table.
