A great thick bunk of it is sliced ore the neck or sides, and, irapaled on a wooden fork, is held over a name until it quits sizzling and .orackling. Then a bountiful supply of salt and red pepper is sprinkled over the meat, a little grease and water are poured over it, and you have a dish fit for the gods when the tea is drawn and l'eady to go with it. The better class of natives usually keep a small supply of coarse cornmeal in their houses, wtth !Which to make bread for distita- guished guests, but they never eat any of this bread themselves, nor do they seem to care for it. 0.0.

Boynare strap-ligerthan girls from birth to thealth year; then girls become euperior phyeically to the 17th year, when the tables are again turned and remain se. From November to April children grow very little and gain no weight; from April to July they gain in height; but !lose in weight, and from July to November they in- crease greatly in weight, but not in height. If the public are fairly and faitnfully dealt with. thOy will come to appreciate it sooner or later. This fact is well illustrat- ed in the experience of Messrs Tuckett & Son with ah-eir well known " Myrtle Navy" Tobacco. Throughout the manufacturers ofiT, az B. have stood firmly by their origi- nal idea to give the public the 'best article possible, at the lowest possible price, and in the large demand for their tobaceo the pub- lic have manifested their appreciation. LUCK .CAME HIS W.AY "The man who enters a gambling house expecting to make a stake is a bigger dunce than the one who sits down on a stump and waits for a cow to bank up and be milked," said T. C. C011ins. •'Still, ;lightning sometimes strikes men, and luck is sometimes found at the gambling table. In the early days of Leadville, Col., a man came there •,who was not addicted to - gambling. He had had bad luck, was , Penniless, deep in debt, and had an in- valid wife and four small children. It was midwinter and the man was des- perate. He pawned his coat for -$2 and entered a gambling house. When he got up from the table he had £10.,000 in r,ash. As he started to go oiir gam- bler, who was running anot r .ganne near the door, bantered him for lust one bet.' He crumpled up a bill and threw it on a figure marked '20 for la Theawheelepun --around and stopped with a sharp click at that number: The gambler picked up the bill, looked' at its,denommatton, and sprang out of his chair with an .oath. It was $500. The man entered the place with a coat and but one 'day's subsistence for his family in his pocket. Two hours later he left it with $20,000. Strange to say, he made good use of., the money so easily got, and is now one of the most prosperous merchants of Denver."

HE WROTE THE NOTE. But Somehow It Didn't Ifect with the Approval of All Concerned. The victim of this story tells the story himself. He is a well-knowa young writer in town and not long ago he complete.? a short story which he though it well to sub. mit to the editor of Harper's Magazine. Carefully wrapping the manurooript tip he gave it, with a separate no tA addressed to the editor, to one of the office boys from his own place of busineas, with instruotione to deliver it at once in Franklin kiquare. Only, day or two had, pinata he. foreathe manuscript waaaretapastaa with a curt note saying that the Messrs, Harper must auk to be relieved from receiving any more manuscripts from tha same source. Convinced that something was wreing, tee young rowbarric.4overtq Franklin Square and asked for one of the Messrs. Harper. In reply to his agitated question as to why ostracised 'aloe ?remit. tartly from the good graces of the *um, he was told, that they did not care to receive manuscripts from him because they did not care to enbmit themselves to further insult at his hands. .,• "Insult !" echoed the startled young man. "I haven't thew .lightest idea what you mean." "Your note was an insult that we do not care to have repeated," was the answer. "My note !" "Yee, sir, the note accompanying the manuecript." Thayoung mon sat for a minute and thought.hard. "Will you let me eee the note ?" he finally asked. "Certainly," was the reply, and the note was brought to him. On a-etilled and crumpled sheet this is what was' written : "Mister Hopper. Her is a mannuscrap. Reed it. If you want it, keep it. If you doan't, damn you,, send it back." To which was appended the name of the sender. Very properly the office boy who had car- ried the note was the,i:next person inter- viewed. He broke down arid. confessed at once. On the way dm" to? Franklin Square he had stopped to watelli, a _game of craps and lost the note. Rather than go back and confess his sin he con-cluded to rise to the occasion and replace the note by his Own idea of such a composition. The Harpers had received the result. The only persons who altogether enjoy this incident will be the ones who read it now. Snap Shots. Never bet on the races against the quiet man with a mouth like that of a hotse. The modern duellist calls fof coffee and cigarettes for two. Good luck is sometimes the very worst thing we can have. There is not a darkey on earth who can help smiling when he looks at a rattlesnake watermelon with the curl dead. No ordinary breeze can raise the hammock It always gets so finally that the only way to have peace is to fight for it. There are a good many things in store for the burglar. Seeing a great audience talked to sleep in four hours, one is forcibly drawn up to the conclusion that the English language has in it great possibilities. The weakness of most great men is their self conceit. Man is said to have seven senses and yet he is said to be a fool. Man imagines himself a giant, yet the weakness of human nature trip him up every day. Sometimes a rich, unexperienced young man has to get everybody in debt to him before he can collect his senses. -Dallas News.

MAIDENLY MODESTY. 1•••••••• "Every people has its own 'peculiar ideas of what constitutes fernale mo- desty," said Captain Paul Jenninge, at the Southern. "In Mexico ladies of good repute and considerable culture do not consider it necessary to close the blinds or even the door when tak- ing a bath. Iu Japan people of all age, sexes and social conditions splash around together in the public bath houses, naked as a lot of Sonth Sea Islanders. In some Spanish American countries a society belle thinks nothing of exposing her entire bosom. A Turk- ish woman, rather than have her face seen by a man, will cover it with her skirt, even if that be her only garment. Our American beauties appear in mixed assemblages in evening dresses that would make the front row at a bur- lesque opera blush. Mcidesty is inhe- rent to woman, but its method of ex- pression is governed by customs, many of them ridiculous in the extreme." fiVben Baby was siek, we gave her Castorla.

"They do not classify crime in Co- rea," said J. B.Winkler. "It is just as serious to be convicted of stealing a pound of rice as of plotting trea- son, or committing wholesale mur- der. There is but one penalty for all crimes -to cut off the heads of the cul- prits. During my visit to that queer country last summer, a pair of valu- able sleeve buttons were stolen from me. I suspected a servant, and he was taken before the tribunal, and subject- ed to a rigorous examination. There was absolutely no evidence tending ta fasten the crime upon him. I suspect- ed the fellow of having swallowed the buttons to avoid discovery, and the au- thorities politely offered to cut him open in search of evidence, if I said ect.', THIS PREPARATION Acts directly on the stomach And promotes the healthy action of the liver, WITHOUT PURGING.
