,FRIsco's CROP OF GENIUS.
Second Only to New York in Visor
and Freshness of Its Literature.

New York is of course the great
American market for literary wares,
says E. S. Martin in Appleton's
Magazine. There is also a measure OF
hospitality shown to writer's and their
products in Boston, Philadelphia, Chi
cago and Indianapolis.
But San Francisco for thirty years
past has beaten all four of these SUD-
sidiary literary centers in the fresh
ness and vigor of its inspirations.
1t has had an ocean OF it's own to
stimulate it's imagination, new coun'
try behind and about it and an ad-
venturous and virile population that
has liked to live its own life IN It's
own way and dream and live its own
romances.
1t has had money, too. 1t has sent
out its ENJOYS to view the world ta1i
a good many of them have stayed
away, and because it has been one
of the worlds great starting places
and landing places it aas viewed ha-
bitually from it's own doorstep pretty
much every kind of human creature
that has been worth looking at.
Altogether, San Francisco has been
like no other city Of our republic.

Father Took Sons Whippinq.

The boy had misbehaved, as he
often did, and his father called him to
account.
Son said the father, Il hate to
lick you, but some one must get a
whipping for what you've done"
The boy whimpered little.
Suppose" said the father, that l
take the whipping for you!"'
The boy laughed at the idea, but the
father took down dog whip, called a
friend who was visiting at the house,
explained the situation to him and
then requested the visitor to use the
whip on him.
The father wore a long-tailed coat
and the visitor hit the tails Of that
coat in great style
At the first crack of that whip the
boy was wild-eyed. At the second he
was clawing, biting and kicking the
man with the whip.
Don't whip my papa! Don't whip
him." he cried. Whip me! Oh,
whip mel"
That was year ago Since then
that boy has never done anything seri-
ously wrong.

All Chemically Pure.

The mistaken idea of few years
ago, about Alum in Baking Powders
being injurious, no longer prevails, or
scarcely exists. 1t is a well estaD-
lished fact by chemical analysis that
Cream of Tartar being less volatile
than Alum, when exposed To heat, IS
not entirely vaporized as is the case
with Alum, but leaves a residue in the
bread, which is injurious. Alum, on
the contrary, is entirely evaporated
while performing its function during
process of baking, leaving TO atom OF
Injurious residuous substance. The
words Chemically Pure erroneously
used to designate Cream OF Tartar
from Alum baking powder is mis-
nomer. Baking Powder made OF pure
Alum is as chemically pure as maze
from pure cream of tartar. These
words mean nothing more nor less
than pure chemicals, and in no way
can they imply that one baking pow
der is Alum and another Cream OF
Tartar Alum has been declared to be
wholesome; an established fact. EV-
cry large water system in the cities
along the Missouri river use Alum in
large quantities to purify the water
before pumping it into their water
mains for consumption. Cream OF Tar
tar baking powder is perhaps good
enough for any one; Alum baking
powder is better, and very much
cheaper.

As to Stray Cats.

A man of cats declares it Is the
worst of luck for pet black cat to
forsake your home. A woman of cats
asserts it is the best of luck. In the
middle ages Satan's favorite form was
black cat. Witches always have
cat as their familiar stray black pussy
in preference. If a white cat races

die. If stray cat/of any color takes

INDIAN SWEAT BATH.
REGARDED BY SOME TRIBES AS
A "cURE ALL"
Belief in This Heroic Form OF Treat
ment for Disease Was Largely
Responsible for the Whit
man Massacre.

The Sweat" bath of the Indian Is
cure-all warranted by the tribal med
lcine man to cure anything and every
fling. from sunburn to corns. 1t is
taken in a primitive but effective man
ner
When the Indian feels the languor
of disease stealing over his frame
he hies himself to a brook and IN
some convenient place by the side Oh
a deep pool builds himself a sweat
house" This house is built of will
low and hazel poles, bent like the
center wicket in a croquet set. over
these are wrapped skins and blankets
until the place is practically air tight
an opening just large enough to allow
a man to crawl through is left close
to the ground, and this opening is coV-
cred with a flap, which may be tight
lv fastened from the inside when de-
sired. When this house has been
completed the patient builds a fire
close by and into it rolls a number
of large stones, which he heats req
hot. He then retires to the interior
Of the house, accompanied by no
clothes, the hot stones and large
vessel of water.
He closes the door, pours the wa
ter over the stones, and endures
primitive but at the same time effect
i've Turkish bath. When the sick man
can stand the heat and steam no long
er he breaks from the house, followed
by cloud of steam and perspiration
dripping from every pore and plunges
headlong into the icy cold depths OF
the pool
This treatment is said to be effect
i've for a great many diseases. 1t
undoubtedly aided in the creation OF
hardy race Of warriors by killing off
all but those which could not be
killed by anything short of super
human agency.
In 1S47, while Dr. Whitman and his
family were camped with the Cayuses,
and just beginning to have sumo sue
cess toward overcoming their preju-
dfces and gaining their friendship,
an epidemic of measles broke out in
the tribe.
DR.. Whitman and his wife did what
they could for the suffering Indians.
The doctor prescribed for them out
of his store of medicines, and would
have checked the disease in all prob
ability had not the jealousies OF the
Indian medicine men, coupled with
the customs of the Indians them
selves, persuaded the sufferers to try
the wonders of the sweat cure.
1t seemed a good idea to the Indian
mind. If the white medicine mans
prescription was good, the Indian med
icine mans remedy would help it
out.
AS a result of this reasoning, hun
dreds of the stricken Indians took the
sweathouse course of treatment and
were fished out of the pool dead as a
result of the sudden disappearance OF
the measles.
This plague of death visited on, the
tribe was placed to the account of
DR.. Whitman, and he was accused of
having given the Indians poison when
he pretended to give them medicine.
Partly, largely in fact, on this account
the massacre was planned and carried
out. 1t is a fact, therefore, that the
Indian sweathouse was the indirect
cause of the Whitman massacre,
