Good Manners. Rules of etiquette are useful for teaching the ignorant and the unpolished, but the are not enough. They are something like the rules of -grammar, which are of little or no service. without constant practice. Good manners must become a part of ourselves— our daily clothing, not our Sunday raiment, Children quickly imitate the deportment of older people, and it is, therefore, neces- sary that mothers should refrain from in- dulging in: language and conduct that savor Apple Pudding.—Pare, geerter and core. six tart applea:; beat until the apples aro cut into email piecese t beat thein quickly until mislead to a smooth pulp; add nate pint of milk, one cep of sugar, one cup of boiled rice, juice end rind of one lemon, and the well -beaten yolks of four egig% lsei and bake in a modcrete oven for twenty. minutes, Beat the whites of the eggs till aEtt' and dry; and stir its carefully -two heaping tablespoons of pOwderecl sugar. i pudding Seep this ever the to of the g lUasn g and return to the ovate to brown. r I ESMILLIONS. • WISCvNS N LOSES tit ' T1 o ,1 a Raged i t xis Yates Which t 1[ to l h.

Fires are raging on the outskirts of Prentice, which was almost destroyed a. few weeks ago.'The village of Vesper, in Wood county, has been completely demolished, and 20 families are reported homelesa. , At Mason City,100 miles distant, the oitizens are exhausted by continually fighting the fires, and little is left in the village. At Lafayette forest fires have, devastated 'the • homes of six farmers, Fire is raging at Phillips, which was almost destroyed in the last fire. Fires are burning along the Chicago, St. Paul, Milwaukee Railroad between Chippewa Falls and Spooner, for 260 miles, and every town is suffering. A SBA OP` FIRE. Fires are raging with terrific fury through the forests of Burnett and Washburn counties close to the railroad. tracks and passengers report that the country is; like a sea of fire. The Wisconsin Central and the :Omaha: Railroad, have been heavy losers: by 'fires, their tracks beim burned for miles, and a number of- freight cars were lost by the latter road at Mason. The most extensive cranberry farm in Wisconsin, five miles from this city, owned. by Aglum Donivan, has been. completely destroyed. The Chippewa Lumber and Boom Company of this city, has lost $1,000,000 in standing pine. of incivility and ignorance. , Shut up your motif or I'll slap you 1" cries a little girl, raising her hand threat.. eningly. " It is very naughty to say such words," we say severely. " My mamma says 'em, an' she ain't naughty," exclaims the child defiantly. Daisy's mother belongs to that class of people that reserve good manners for especial occasions. Her children live in a sphere of rudeness when the niceties of personal conduct are overlooked. They are constantly urged to"behave themselves properly," and told that "nobody likes rude children," but these admonitions and assertions are, of course, unheeded, and the children eventually learn to despise those who are unlike themselves, and think it an evil to be, as they term it, "too nice and too particular.". Inexpensive Dishes. Baked Salt Pork.—For a small family, soak a piece weighing two pounds over night in plenty of sweet milk. This latter, if a day old and creamed first, will answer the purpose well and be less extravagant or city housekeepers. Gash the pork across the top with a sharp knife, making incisions an inch deep and half an inch apart. Prepare a highly spiced bread - dressing and press this into the incisions; season the pork with pepper and lay in a baking pan with a cup of sweet milk. Baste well about three-quarters of an hour before dinner, pour most of the gravy from the pan into a bowl, and lay medium -sliced; peeled potatoes of the white and sweet varieties aroundthe pork, to bake tend brown in its drippings. Skimthe fat from the gravy, thicken it with flour, wet with cold milk, season with pepper and serve with the pork. This must be cut in thin slices. A nice vegetable to accompany it, is cabbage 'cooked as follows : Boil until tender in the milk in which the pork was soaked, diluting it with milk or water, if too salty. Drain and allow it to cool quickly in the open air. Chop it fine, seasonwith pepper and a large tablespoon of melted butter, adding throe tablespoons of cream and two beaten eggs. Place in a buttered dish and bake, covered for three- quarters of an hour. Remove the cover and brown. • Beef Balls,—This is a nice and econemi cal wayof using bits of cold meat for break- fast or anpper when you do not want hash. Chop the beef very fine, leaving on the fat, but freeing it from gristle. To a large cup of the mince put one small cup of crumbs rolled and sifted, and season to taste. Put over the fire in a saucepan, and moisten with gravy or soup stock, failing that with a little water. Add a little catsup ; stir well, taste to see that it is nicely. seasoned, add ane beaten egg and remove from the fire, When cold roll into small halls, slightly flattened, egg and bread - crumb them and fry in hot fat, using a wire basket. Prune Pudding.—Soak one pound of prunee over night. 'Item° re the stoner, and put the fruit in eporoelainlined kettle with suffreient water to prevent burning ; cover ere cook slowly until the prunes are very tattler. Swootenand whet, cold, beat to a smooth pulp.

RIDING IN A RICKISHA. Experience ofa Traveler With the Human Horses o€Japan. But the moat novel, and withal natural, sensation I ever experienced regarding rick- shas and their human horses was on a cer- tain occasion when driving, or rather being pulled, in Toyko, writes a traveller:•' I was. idly watching a rickisha aheadof me which was bowling along et a goodly rate and con- tained two young Japanese girls ,most elaborately dressed. All 61 a sudden,to my horror and alarm, the hub of the rickisha. struck sharply against the hub of another riekicha going' in the opposite direction with so severea shock that their collie pitched forward on his head, breaking both shafts, and the two gide rolled out on, top of him. Were it not for the mud the tumble was in reality no more severe nor dangerous than that of falling off a chair. Nevertheless, withoutstopping to reason, .Itook an instan- taneous flying leap over my collie's shouts ders,landed close to the over turnedrickisha, seized a girl in each hand and dragged them clear of the wreck and the cast • steed. Of course, without the greatest promptitude on my part, the collie on the ground, entangled in the harness, would in his struggles kick the girls' brains out or else get up snorting and terrified and trample them to death be- fore he bolted up the street with the broken shafts dangling at his heels. 1 have a recollecton•of even thinking, as soon as the girls were in -a ,place of safe- ty, that bought to dart hack and sit on the collie's head while some one got the harness off. Ah, the two poor Japanese maidens ! what could have been their sensations when they were suddenly and rudely grabbed by a wild:looking foreigner, dragged through the mud, and bundled up against a wall? All, for sooth,because that big ugly foreigner was afraid of a'verytimid, apologetic, and bruised little collie, only half, his size.

This chemical change must go on in more or less active way, or death ensues; since the oxidizing of food is necessary for the life of the individual' cells, whose aggrega- tion constitutes the whole of our compile cated structures. Now if more material is supplied to the system than it pan use, or, in other words, more than it can comhine with oxygen, much of the supply must pass out of the body in a state not fully exhausted of its vitalizing power ; and: it is highly probable that these unoxidized products are the causes, direct or indirect, of many troubles. of a somewhat :obscure nature, to a hich we have applied the naives of rheumatism, gout, lithumia, and the like. Such.partially oxidized materials circus late in the blood,' and are carried to all. parts of the body, and are known to bo more or less irritating to its delicate struc- tures, organs tind Haynes. In the case of the habitual over -eater, the presence in the blood of such materials, which are constantly acting as irritants to the organs, tray easily produce oh,anges'in. the tiasues so irritated. As- time goes on. these changes become greater and greater, and finally result in permanent conditions of disease, or in an appreciably hastened death. Exercise, by promoting oxidation, lessens the danger of over -eating.

Healthfulness Of Houses. - Houses which have unwholesome aur- roundings,or' which are built' on unsanitary principles, are apt to become known for ,tin unusual amount of sicknesswithinthem. Houses not 'unhealthy in. construction: or surrounding may acquire a like evil name through lack of care to keep them in a sanitary condition. One way in which sickness is propagated is by neglect of a thoroughdisinfection of the room and hoose in which' sickness has occurred.,: Disinfection,'1n feet ;eieeery rarely performed in cases of consumption, and is especially apt to be• neglected if` the family occupying the house is about to remove. • The almost inevitable result of such neglect is that unsuspecting. Persons are exposed to severe and perhaps fatal illness. A history like -the following is not un- common Sickhess of in infectious nature. occurs in a house which has been considered' healthful. The occupants move out; ,an other family moves in, in which the same disease soon appears; : Stich sequences have been known to occur in cases of diphtheria scarlet fever and consumption. • As a rule, in such •cases an investigation is sooner or later demanded, either by the municipal board of health or by private individuals. In cities where the occurrence- . of any contagious disease isimmediately made known to health . department, an outbrake of several, cases of the same nature fn the one house at once leads to an investigation. , In these days all " germ" diseases, in- cluding cholera, consumption, typhoid. fever, diphtheria -in short, all contagious diseases, -are looked upon as ;preventable. As an important part. of such prevention all houses should receive a thorough •clean- ing, together with a disinfection of their walls, floor and ceiling, after each case of infectious disease Much responsibility for the observance of these precautions rest with the household- er. If every one on taking a house in which there have been: cases of sickness, would insist on having it disinfected before moving in,much illness would be prevented. The Young Generation's. Teeth. Discussing the poverty of the teeth de- velopment of this geheration compared, to that of their elders, a medical writer says : •.Four distinctive facts can be pointed, out: (1) They did' not eat till they were hungry, .and at long intervals ; (2) plenty of ex- ercise for teeth and jaws ; (3) •no hot drinks; 4) they could eat without drinking.

The eat -and - swill method of eating is universal, the bolus being swept into the cesopliagus without even the pretence of mastication It is considered that not even a child can eat without a hot drink ready to its hand and children of eighteen months may be seen drinking strong concoctions of theine and tannic acid, and refusing other food, and this usually for every meal. As school children they exist but donot thrive on this diet,hut at twenty^commences a divergence in the habits of the sexes.

Great many Things originated. Steel pens originated in England in 1803. Lawyers were known in Babylon 2300 Tiles were used on houses in Rome '5C0 Ceck-fighting was introduced into Eng- land in 1191. Titles are older than written history. King is the oldest. Shoes are fleet mentioned in Egyptian annals 2000 years before Christ. Stamps for marking goods weire in use at Rome before the Christian era. Paintine in botb oil and water colors was known in Egypt 1900 B.C. Chess was of military origin and known in India before the Christian era. Ink is mentioned in the Egyptian inserips done about the time of the Exodus. The use of the Christian eea in chronology began in Italy in 525. It was not employ- ed in England until 816. This first telegraphic message that ever passed over the wires was composed of the words "What hath God -wrought." Notaries are first mentioned in the fourth century. They were appointed by priett's and bishops to keep the church records. I3an ks were first established in Lombardy by the Jewish money -loaders. The first publis hank wits that of Venice, in 1550. The first muffs were made for the use of doctors to keep their fingers soft and warm, that they might accurately feel the pulse of their patient% India rebber used for eracing pencil marks was known in England as early as 1770. A cebe of it half an inch square cost 3 shillings. The cravat was originally a large 'thaw I worn reeled the necks not for show, hut for comfort, by a nation of Eastern Europe called the Cravates, or Croats. Tarring and feathering was once a legal pluishment for theft. It is said to be found in the statutes of both England and Frence abOUt the time of the Crusades. Boo, the exclaanation used to frighten children, is a corruption of Boh, the name Of a famous Gothic General. It has been used as a terror word for many centuries. The word bumper, signifying a drink or pledge, was originally a toast to the Pops in Roman Catholic countries drunk in a full glass just after dinner au Bon Pere. - The administration of the oath to wit- nesses is a pradtice of very high amtiquity. It is mentioned as of common use among the Jews at the time of the exodus from Egypt. Signals used by ships at sea date from 1665. Thenvere invented by the Duke of York, afterwards James Ir., and, se far as known, were the only things he ever did invClelnoctks are said by some to have been in- vented by Pacificus, a priest of 'Verona, in the ninth century, By others, the inven- tion is credited to Beethiutt in the sixth The father of the piano was the harpsi- chord, and its grandfather the si..inet, The piano was first used in a publio concert on May lath, 1767, in the Covent Gartien Theatre, London. The first silk dress worn in Europe was sported by a lady, of the French court in - 1455. The first paer of silk stockings worn in Europe adorned the ankles of Henry Lie of France in 1509. - Pledging a Least originated among the Saxons. As the drinket raised the heevy cup with both holds a friend would stand by him with a drawn tavord to prevent hen frorn -being stabbed." Watches originated • at. Nuremberg, ma early as 1477. They were at first called Nuremberg eggs, which they resembled both in shape and size. . They were often fitted into the tops of walkingsstiaks. The first English book on stenography, so far as 'movie', was written by Dr. Tima thy Bright 1588. Its earlier inventions le attributed to the Latin poet Ennius, to Seneca, Gicerotand several others.

It is estimated by a statistician with a penchant for the odd that all the people that have died sino° Adam's day could he buried' in a demetery 100,000 miles square. Excluding about 62,000 small craft, the commerce of the world is carried* on by 45,000 vessels of 20,500,000 registered bons, with carrying capacity of 48,000'; The number f slaves exported from; Africa duringe eighteenth century13 h g calculated as 6,000,000.

A young woman in a notir- by suburban town „was recently appointed librarian of the local library, but has since lost the position. She spent about a fortnight in rearranging the books. and it was then found that her plan was to get an the blues, greens, reds browns, and other colors together, beyond which, harmonious form of scheduling her ambition had not risen. it is a remarkable fact that the deepest parts of the sea are in ale cases very near the land. The deepest sounding known, 4,665 fathoms, or 27,930 feet waa obtained 110 miles from the Kurile Islands ; the next deepest, 4,561 fathoms, was found seventy miles north of Porto Rico, With a few exceptions like these, the depth of the ocean as far as DOW known does not reech 4,000 fathoms, or four sea mile% The North Pacific has a mean depth of 2,500 fathoms, the South Pacific of 2,400; the Indian ocean of 2,000, and the Atlantic, by far the best investigated ocean, has a mean depth of 2,200 fathoms.
