Saitherson.
A milltary-looking gentleman got of
the train at Vaidon, the other evening
and stepping up to a party by the nam
of Johnson, who was standing near by
eagerly Inquired:
xExeuse me, sir, but is your natni
Suitherson ?
"No, sir, my name Is Johnson."
"Do you know of any tailthersonj
hereabouts?"
"Smitherson, SmItherson-oan't say
that I ever heard the name before
te) over with me to Bell's saloon, an(
perhaps we'll find some one there wh<
ean give itiformation."
Over to Bell's they went. The bar.
room was full, and the lquiry weni
round:
"Bill, do you know any Sinitherson
Totn do you know one Smitherson?'
and so on. Not a single acquaintanet
of Swltherson's could be found. The
stranger seemed very anxious to find
Smithersoin ; and, as ie lefe tle saloon,
a crowd followed limu, a rumor iavitig
got alloat, (no doubt taking its rise
IrTU the military air of the stranger,)
Liat, a reyenue ollcer was in search of a
Goverqnjent delaulter, or a crooked
whisky man. Up the street the crowd
w,euded itS way, and stopped in front
of 1irsh's Hotel. By this time the en
tire tiwn w: aroused. "Smiti.orson"
was on every liII. Mothers clasped
their babes to theIL breasts and rushed
toward the hotel. 3in gazed ax
iously a. each other, and contorted their
lp into tile semblance ot o Old17-fa1sh1
loned wood-burn ing engine funiel, dis
xlpated by at latc collision, in their en
deavor to pronounce the word "Smith
erson." Almost the entire town was
now gathered about the stranger, and,
as lie opened his llis, you could have
heard a hog's bt ist le light on a bale of
cotton.
"Ffriend@," saildl he, "is there not. a
single man, woman or clilid, in this
asseinblage who is at quininted with one
"Suitherson ?'
A d ead silence followed.
"No one know% a Smiterson, ehl!
Then ny missiu Is at, ai end. It's ol
no con-s(quence;, I merely asked out of
curiosity. I was on'Ze looking over a
New York city directory, when I came
tAcross thle imi Smiithur-son. Seemaed
to. me a st rurge nam41ne, aid I was cuil I
uus enough to iAd out if any one by
the name of 'Smitiersoii' existed in
these parts. I am nlow inclined to
think that there is not.'"
When the ciowd ascertained that the
stranger was merely a Blhiemian editor
on a drunk, they droloped (heir bn iek
b its aind allow(d bim to go inl pa11ce.

Carbolic soap is siuiply a soapi to

This acid Is destrucive to all the low.

andu( young 1)1lats is lai a formi of a sIt
made 0of cairbolie soap, perh'laps; in tisI
form it is less liable to do iaujury3 to the
growths thana In any oIlier. Unr'bollt
soap Is someowhat expenalive, however,
when we buy13 it r'ea-ty prepared, and
thIs fact has, ini all probabIlity, held I
back from coming Into mtore geneal
use, But the crude acId of itself Is not
Veryolpensive, and thecrefore whenf ont
has ocCaRion to llse it on a somewhat
r largo seale it would be best for him to
buy the acid and prepare thle soap hilin
self. [low to prepaie this soap. Ob
taln crude carbollo acid-It will cost
from 25 to 50 cents per gallon. Poe- a
quantity of this cru(de acid Into a quan.
tity of good strong soft soap; stir well
together, and ailow to stand for a few
hours, then test the compound by mix
Ing a little of It with soft water. If
to much acid has been added, oily par.
tioles of carbolic acid will be observed
floatng on the surface. 'Tis shows that
more acid has been put in than thesoup
will incorporate or "cut," and more
soap should be added to balance the ex
cess of acid. No more definite rule can
be given. as so mnineh depends on the
strength of tle soap. Two or three
tablespoonfuls of the acId to a quart of
soapi may be first tried, Soneperflerto
make as strong with acid as the soap
will perfectly out. A very little prac
tice will enable 1.Y (fine to coTIIpotnld
it correctly. Tihe refluedi acid mnay be
uised when the craide Iw not. at hand.
When prepiaredi as above, make a mod
erately strong suds, and api)ly with
syringe or sponge. Of course it wil
be neceysarv to ie entittlon in prepar

ten(der a strong suf 18 would be apt to
ruin them. The alpplication should be
renewed after each heavy rain capable
of wasing oir the suds. To carbolle
soap that we buy at the stores Is hard,
and In e:kes, but that makes it no bet
ter-the soft, s pl) prelired according
to the foregoling direct.ions Would be
equally as good in every respect.

a coat properly, and so avoid this, pro
eed as follows: First, spread it on th
table, double the left sleeve from th
elbow toward the collar, the other th
same way; then the left lappel over tb
sleeve as far as the back seam an,i th
other in the same manner. Next, turi
up the left skirt so that the end ma;

skirt. Give it a light brushing all cvir
and then turn one-Lalf the coat exacti:
even over the other half. Folded it
this manner, the coat may be put It(

for its puiIty,its freedon Iron iron and
other minerals, and clay, earth and
vaicareous inatters, which are oft cei

JENxit JUNE tells of a party of foui
ladies who last year undertook a tri
alone, visting several countries o
Europe, and whose enjoyment was 8t
great at a moderate expense that sever
al other parties will go abroad thil
year. It Is all right for ladies to go
skylarking around alone, but some day
they will see i monster snake nearly a
foot long, or an awfulgrasshopper will
settle on one of their npcks. and then
their enjoyment will not be so great,
and they will wish they had taken a
man along'to kill such beasts.
JoNRS had engaged a man to dig a
well at lils suburban place. Seeing
him a month later Jones asked how he
was getting along with hIs work, and
was told that the well was half done.
Judge therefore of lils surprise when,
a week after title conversation, upon
visiting the premises, he found only a
circle marked in tie earth. Of course
he hunted up the man, and of course
he asked him what he meant by saying
the well was half done. The man very
coolly replied: "So it Is; well begun
is hal If done, yotl know."
"Yas," said Mrs Goodington, sadly,

lils leg, and it had to be computed to
save his life.'' And the old lady didn't
suy another word for at least fifteen
anlaiutes. She was thinking, as she
afterward said, of the dreadful sights

Little Is known yet of the process used
In making d1auonds by Dr. H1anny, of
Glasgow; but the Herald of that city
sayB that the method involves the sim
ultaneous application of enormous pres
sure-probably many tont on the square
Inch ofsurface-and a very high tem
perature ranging up to a dull-red heat.
It may be said that the process is the
outcome of a thoroughly schitific Inves
tigation into the subject of solution and
not a "happy-go-lucky" hit. "We un
derstood,' says the Herald, "hydrocar
bon compounds have been used in the
process, Put we have some hesitation in
concluding that the crystalline carbon
is of necessity obtained by the dissocia
tion of these compounds, By and by,
hdikever, that point will doubteas be
satisfactorily established. So far as we
can learn, Mr. H1anitay's experiments
were not all successful, there being, It
Is said far more failures than successes ;
the la;ter, however, occurred near the
end of the series, thus showing that the
operater had become familiar with the
condition under which the dissociation
of the carbon wa, effected, and its sub
sequent deposition in the crystalline
form. It- would seem that up to the pre
sent only very small orystalline parti
cles have been obtained, and hence the
process must be an exceedingly expen
sive one to produce a real gem- some
thing like spending, to speak roughly,
?5 or X0 to get five shillings."
The use of petroleum as fuel Is incream
ing. It is much cheaper than coal,
