'Pon my word I it makes my blood run cold to hear you talking about hunting, and fishing, and picnics, and other summer luxuries, and the thermometer on the down-grade like a runaway stag-team I" "Oh! but this is honest?just as true as that two and two makes four." "I don't doubt your word, my boy! Buthonest 'Injun P?your subject is not appropriate to the climatic conditions." "But this is on the dead square." "Well, if you must?you must. But be quick about it, for I am freezing almost to death!" "Well, you see, he went down on Reese river, one of those hot days last week?to which the frigid atmosphere of to-day is such a striking and startling contrast?taking bis gun along in case he should see a feather or so. You know snipe ain't usually very plentiful in this country ; but you may believe it or not, the bank of the river was just covered with 'em. He blazed away, and blazed and banged, and kept shooting at them until his ammunition gave out; and when he came to count his birds, he had just one hundred and thirteen of 'em." "You don't say! I did not believe there were so many snipe as that in all Lander county." "Sure'syou live! Well, he brought'em home, and I met him coming up the street, and he asked me to go np to the house with him and his game, and he would give me a few Bnipe for breakfast. He had the birds in two barley sacks; and I, wanting to be obliging?being as he was going to give me some snipe?carried one of the sacks up to the house for him. When we got there, we went into the kitchen, and he commenced emptying the sacks out on the floor; and?you may believe it or not, just as you durn choose!? but of that one hundred and thirteen snipe, every blessed one of 'em, all but two, were mosquitoes?two snipe and one hundred and eleven mosquitoes!" "Oh ! yes, of course, I believe it. And you are the man that intends to go on probation in the church ?" "Oh ! no, I ain't a bit dry. I've got an engagement I want to go down town and borrow a prospectus of the Paris Exposition, and Btudy up the schedule of premiums for the best American liars 1" A MEAN ADVANTAGE. There were a score or more of women gathered together at Mr. Johnson's house. Mr. Johnson is a good-hearted man and a respectable citizen, though he is rather skeptical in some things. The women had just organized "The Foreign Benevolent Society," when Mr. Johnson entered the room. He was at once appealed to to donate a few dollars as a foundation to work on, and then Mrs. Graham added: "It would be so pleasant, in after years, for you to remember that you gave this society its first dollar and its first kind word." He slowly opened his wallet, drew out a ten-dollar bill, and as the ladies smacked their lips and clapped their hands, be asked: "Is this society organized to aid the poor of foreign countriess?" "Yes?yes?yes 1" they chorussed. 1 "And it wants money ?" "Yes?yes." 1 "Well, now," said Johnson, as he folded the 1 bill in a tempting shape, "there are twenty 1 married women here. If there are fifteen of 1 you who can make oath that you have comb- 1 ed your children's hair this morning, washed j the dishes, blacked the cook-stove, and made ' beds, I'll donate this ten dollars." "I have," answered two of the crowd, and the rest said: "Why, now, Mr. Johnson !" "If fifteen of you can make oath that your husbands are not wearing sockB with holes in the heels, this money is yours," continued the . wretch. J "Just hear him !" they exclaimed, each one 1 looking at the other. "If ten of you have boys without holes in the knees of their pants, this X goes to the society !" said Johnson. , "Such a man !" they whispered. , "If there are five pair of stockings in this , room that do not need darning, I'll band over | the money !" he went on. i "Mr. Johnson," said Mrs. Graham, with 8 great dignity, "the rules of this society de- j clare that no money shall be contributed ex- , cept by members; and as you are not a mem- , ber, I beg that you will withdraw and let us j proceed with the routine business."? Waih- . ington Chronicle. ] Fresh Prunes.?Yesterday morning the female head of a family called at a grocery ( and asked for prunes. Some prunes were ex- s hibited, and she enquired : I "Do you warrant them ?" "We do," was the reply. ( "Perfectly fresh, are they ?" "Indeed, tbey are." "No worms in them ?" "Not a worm." "Are they full weight?" "Full weight, madam." "Sweet are they ?" "I warrant them sweet." "No pits in them ?" "Not a pit, madam." "And a prize package with every pound ?" ehe asked, after a pause. "Yes, madam." "And a chromo, too ?" she hesitatingly inquired. "Yes, and a chromo, too." She nibbled at a prune, knit her brows, and finally asked : "Don't you give a cash premium with every pound you sell ?" "We do, madam. You pay ten cents for a pound of prunes, and get a chromo, a prize package and a cash premium of fifty cents! Shall I do you up a pound ?" "Well, it seems as if you wanted to be fair with your customers," she slowly replied ; "but I guess I won't take any. Seems to me ten cents per pound for prunes, is too much for these times, when butter is down and calico is down, and shoes are awful cheap." f&"This is a Jew's store, ain't it?" said a rude customer, after tossing over a bit of goods that a quiet old man bad been patiently showing him. "It is for any one who chooses to buy? Christian, Moslem, or Hebrew," was the quiet reply. ir* tr_i i tl?.>???n ! v/, Aicuron ; xuaio YYimt j'ju ^an jumselves, is it? Well, you are the descendants, I suppose, of the men who hung Christ upon the cross ?" "Perhaps so," said the old Hebrew; "but you must be the descendant of the man who hung by his side on that occasion and reviled ' him." The customer concluded that he could buy goods easier than he could bandy words with the old man, and dropped the subject. No Receipt.?An Irishman went into a j butcher's shop and asked : "Have you any sheep's heads, mishter ?" "O, yes," was the reply. Pat, after a good deal of higgling, boughtj one, and then wished to know how to make it j ready. The shopman began to tell him, but Pat, not being blessed with a good memory, j asked him to "write it down on a piece of paper," and meantime laid down his purchase j at the shop door. A dog, seeing a good 1 chance, seized the head and bolted down the 1 street. Pat immediately gave chase, bawling, i at the top of his voice : "Come back wid me j sheep's head, ye robber, ye I" but after a stiff j run had to give in, dead beat, when he con-1 soled himself with the remark, "Never moind,j he has not got the resate bow to make it ready." I and fireside. The Reliable Man.?Of all the qualities that combine to form a good character, there is not one more important than reliability. Most emphatically true of a good business man. The word itself embraces both truth and honesty, and the reliable man must necessarily be truthful and honest. We see so much all around us that exhibits the absence of this crowning quality, that we are tempted, in our billious moods, to deny its very existence. But there are, nevertheless, reliable men, men to be depended upou, to be trusted, in whom you may repose confidence, whose word is as good as their bond, and whose promise is performance. If any of you know such a man, make him your friend. You can only do so, however, by assimilating his character. The reliable man is a man of good judgment. He does not jump at conclusions. He is not a frivolous man. He is thoughtful. He turns over a subject in bis mind and looks at it all around. He is not a particular or a one-sided man. He sees through a thing. Rp ia ant. to ho a verv reticent man. He does not have to talk a great deal. He is moderate, not only in habits of body, but also of mind. He is not a passionate man; if so, by nature, be has overcome it by grace. He is a sincere man, not a plotter or schemer. He does not promise rashly. What he says may be relied on. He is a trustworthy man. You feel safe with your property, or the administration of affairs in his hands. He is a watchful, vigilant man. You feel secure in his protection. He is a brave man, for his conclusions are logically deducted from the sure basis of truth, and he does not fear to maintain them. He is a good man, for no one can be thoroughly honest and truthful without being good. Is such a quality attainable ? Most assuredly so. It is not born, it is made. Character may be formed, of course; then its component parts may be modeled to that formation. The Bite of Dogs.?So much alarm has been felt in many quarters concerning hydrophobia, tbat every possible means of escaping the danger of dog-bites is eagerly welcomed by the public. We present, therefore, a few notes clipped from our exchanges :?1. The following cure for hydrophobia, is a recipe of M. Cassar, a French physician: "Take two tablespoonfuls of fresh chloride of lime, mix it with one-half pint of water, and with this wash keep the wound constantly bathed and frequently renewed." The chloride gas possesses the power of decomposing the tremendous poison, and renders mild and harmless the venom against whose resistless attack the artillery of medical science has been so long directed in vain. Apply as soon as possible after the infliction of the bite. 2. Dr. Offenburg, of Munster, claims to have cured a case of hydrophobia by hypodermic injections of "" ""I oonon ?imM in four hours fn t.hp amount of three grains. Symptoms of paralysis ensued, free from convulsions. The recovery was slow. 3. Pulverized charcoal, mixed with lard, is said to be an infallible remedy for the bite of a dog. It must be immediately applied to the injured spot and kept there until the poison has been completely drawn out. * Cleaning Paint.?A correspondent of the Farm and Fireside writes: Housekeepers, j purchase a good supply of ammonia to use in house-cleaning. The husband has everything that will lighten bis labors. Now suppose his wife had her bottle of spirits of ammonia to use, she takes her basin of water and a clean cloth, just puts on a few drops of the fluid, and wipes off all the dirt; it is worth more than a half day's bard labor and does ot hurt the paint, either. She could put a few drops in her dish water, and see how easily the dishes could be cleaned ; a few drops on the sponge would clean all the windows in the sitting room, making them shine like crystal. It would take the stains off the teaspoons too, and a tablespoonful in the moppail would do more toward washing up the kitchen floor than ten pounds of elbow grease ipplied to the mop-handle. A housewife has just as much right to make her work easy and expeditious, as her husband has. If she ioes not do it, the fault is her own in a great measure. Stand at the Head.?Young man, if you are going to be a farmer, be a good one. Do aot play second fiddle to any one. Be the chief musician yourself. This being second, :hird, fourth or fifth rate is not just the thing, [t is the first that always wins esteem and respect. Study, observe, listen and gather information pertaining to your business from every source, and you can soon know as much is any one. Let no day pass without some increase of knowledge. Whatever you culti rate, do it well. Whatever stock you have, i let it be good and take good care of it, and j improve it as fast as your means will admit. { Whatever fruit you have, let it be choice, and ; study how to improve it, how to market it so as to get the highest price. If you have a garden, let it be the first in the ueighborhood. Be at the head of the class, not third or fourth cr at the foot.?Rural World. Why We Should Masticate Well.? All know that a lump of ice in a glass of wa-1 ter melts very slowly; but if divided into pea-sized pieces and stirred round, it is melted with many times greater rapidity, each piece ' being dissolved from without inwards, aod the surface exposed to the water being multifold greater. So it is with the food in the 3tomach, the juices of which develop it for i the purpose of reducing it to a liquid form, to prepare it for yielding its nourishment to the system; the more numerous the pieces, and the smaller, the greater will be the amount of surface exposure and the more rapidly will it be dissolved; hence the reason for chewing the food well. VST* Sweet almonds are nutritive, but difficult of digestion. The brown husk that surrounds the kernel is unwholesome, and on account of its injurious qualities almonds should always be blanched. This is done by simply pouring boiling water upon the kernels. Bitter almonds are poisonous to all classes of animals. Though they do not contain prussic acid, yet, when chewed, a chemical change is effected by which prussic acid is formed. The essence of bitter almonds is a most potent poison, though it is extensively used for flavoring. In the hands of a careless or igno- j rant cook it is dangerous, and there are a great many flavorings that could well take its place altogether. Cut This Out and Preserve.?Mr. MSnell. living at Nashville, has for several months had, at times, attacks of hemorrhage of the lungs, and has been for weeks confined to his bed, and was evidently a confirmed consumptive. The common mulleu being recommended to him, he gathered the leaves green, and to one gallon of water he added two pounds of the leaves; boiled four hours, strained and added one pint of honey. Of this mixture he takes one tablespoonful three times a day, one hour before eating. Under this treatment the hemorrhage has ceased, and he is getting hearty?feels like a new man, and is now able to perform manual labor. Whooping Cough.?This distressing malady is caused by a viscid matter which ^annot be easily expectorated. The daily use of the warm bath is very beneficial. Gentle emetics may be given in the early stages of the disease. A change of air is always beneficial. The diet should be light and easy of digestion, avoiding everything of a fat and oily nature. In violent cases consult a physician. Cure for Chronic Rheumatism.?Dr. Bonnet, of Graulbet, France, recommends and prescribes for chronic rheumatism the use of the essential oil of turpentine by friction. He used it himself with perfect success, having almost instantaneously got rid of rheumatic pains in both knees and in the left shoulder. | THE YORKYILLE ENQUIRER.
