Colt's Peculiar Appetite
IMiiluila-JpliIa IU'COrd
Louis Shoener, 'a fiim.L-r near
Swedesboro, N. J., hasaneif-hl-nioiiihs
'old coll that has developed a freak
'ippetite.
The animal takes very kindly to
bread aiid butter, is very fond of mashed potatoes and |;ravy, doles on cakes
and pies, revels pickles, smacks ils lips
over sauerkraut and pit's' feet and
lakes coffee like a veteran.
Wliero Eyeial-jlit Is good
The best eyesight, says London Til
Bits, is possessed by those people whose
lands are vast and barren, and where
obstacles lend'uif-; to shorten the si-jln
tire few. Esquimaux will detect a
white fox in the snow at a great distance away, while the Arabs of lhe
deserts of Africa have such extreme
powers of vision thai on the vast plains
of the desert they will pick out objects
invisible to the ordinary eye at ratines
from one to len miles distant. .Anion**;
civilized people the Norwegians have
better eyesight than nu-M, if not all,
others, as they more generally fulfil the
necessary conditions. The reason why
defective eyes are so much on lhe increase in tbis country and in America
lies in too inuch study of books in early
life and iu badly-lighted rooms.
Happy Comprise'
At a dinner given by the Congrega-
tijnul club at Hartford, Conn., I'rof. l-i.
F. Steiner of Iowa college, who was
the guest of honor, lold the following
story:
An Irishni'in ii>->rr'u'il a Jewess, -ind
their union was a happy one until lhe
stork paid Ihem a visit. The yinnijf
son proved to be a" bone of contention,
for bis father, with pardonable egotism
wished him named I'm, while his
mother was equally decided lhat lie
should bu called Moses. The day was
Slaved, however, by a .Solomon in the
person of a woman acro-as thii hall, for
her suggestion was*accepted by both
parties. The boy was christened I'ul-
1110s.

Changed IiIh Mind
HoUatoll I'aaast.
James Barton Adams, who, wilh his
wife, stopped over in Houston last week
on his way to New York Cily, said lhat
coming down from Denver he got in
conversation with a Texas cattleman,
who sang lhe praises of Grand Old
Texas world without end.
"You are not ofthe same opinion as
regards Texas that Sheridan was ?"
observed Adams.
"What opinion was that ?" queried
the cattlemon.
:"\Vhy, he said that if lie owned  u
farm in Texas and one in hell, he'd sell
the one  in Texas, as he would rather
_ live in hell."
"No, ! ain't of that opinion," observed  the   a-uttleman   thoughtfully,  -'and
. I'll bet Sheridan has changed his mind
by this time."
Even Boys Leum Grafting
"I had a little boy in my room who
is bound to figure in some great municipal scandal some day." said the school
teacher to the Indianapolis Star. "He's
a lazy little fellow and he exasperates
rile bemuse he am do so well when he
does work. Lately I've been giving
him lowgrade marks to see if that
would not spur him up a little. Hut,
while it disturbs his father, lhe youngster himself does uot seem lo mind his
low rank. Yesterday he came to me
with more interest in his face than I've
seen for some time.
" 'Say teacher,' he said, dad says if
~ I'll.get a good rank  ibis month  he'll
give  me  $*»o.    And  I'll tell you  what
I'll do.    If you'll give me  high marks
I'll divide thc $*o with you."
"It was 'In-vain that I labored with
him and pointed out that he had insulted inc. He insisted that it was
merely a way for us both to make $to
easily. If he doesn't get a Folk after
him some day I shall be very much
mistaken.
A Lady Ilnnclior-
Aniong thc passengers outgoing   for
the West who attraeled attention at the
C. I'. R. depot on Wednesday, says llie
Winnipeg Free Press,   was a  lady  attended  by her footman, timid and gar
deucr.    There  was a  throng of emigrants ;  a large crowd of men, women
and children pushed their way  to the
train.     Among them,   though  not  of
them, was Mrs. Hargrave of Derbyshire
a wealthy   Fnglish   widow • who   had
Co ue to Canada  in   order  lo  take   up
ranching laud "tu the Km th west.    The
lady said she  had  been  left  a  widow
about a year ago ; lliat her three sons
who were al Hton, havi5 as yet thought
of no profession, and that, on   thinking
the   mailer over,  she i-undtided  lhat
they Would   have a  better chance  in
Canada than in Kiigland.   Accordingly
the thought of Mrs. Hargrave is lo buy
up a large tract of land and settle on il;
and then in the course of a  year bring
out her  hoys,    She has ample mo.iu-a
and  brings her maid, her footman and
her   gardener..      I'aeh   uf theso   will
assist but not in their former  capacity,
that i.-, thoy will be given an opportunity to start for themselves in the course
of a year or so.
NrIuom Trillium
Probably the .most  important  news
thai h;-s reached Kootenay for many  a
day is   lhat the   Ileberlein   process  at
Marvs.'ille   smelter   is   a   pronounced
success.    It has now been running scv- J
eral weeks, and has done all   thai  was j
asked  or  expected of  it.    Just   what!
this .involves   can   hardly   be   realized, '
but it means at least thai  there is   an
actual saving of 65 a ton in   the   treatment of silver-lead  ores of   a   certain
grade, that the other  lead   smelters   in
Ihe Kooienay will  have   to   adopt   lhe
liia-Caira, ar.d that the   producer  slumlil
benefit to the extent of $■ per ton on  a
Oo percent lead ore or concentrate. We
imagine this will do more I ban   lax   or
tariff legislation to stifle the complaints
of lead ore miners, and by solving   the
problem of cheap  treatment it  should
stimulate production to an extent   hitherto   unknown    in   the Slocan      Ju^t
how this economic   problem   has   been
solved may be gathered from    the   lacl
lhat the Ileberlein process is a direct as
compared . with  an   indirect  one.      It
does not produce matte as in  the  ordinary process,   which  then   h is   to be
ireaied again, but its  first   product   is
bullion, which only needs refining.    In
the process of roasting   all   impurities
are   eliminated,   the   ore    being   first
crushed, in the roaster  it   is   rendered
viscious and the sulphur passes   off  so
lhat by the time  the ore   reaches   the
lead   stack   and the   blast  is applied
nothing   remains but to consolidate   it
into metal.    The doing away with   the
intermediate process of trea'ing  matte
effects   the   saving   already   specified.
The most careful assays cf the slag  at
Marysville show   th.it   all   the   silver
values have been recovered in  the  furnace,   lhe   slag   contained   practically
nothing.    Another lead stack  to   treat
customs   ore   has been started.    Il   is
understood  thai  the   management   of
both Trail  and   Hall, mines   smelters
have been watching the development  of
the Herberlein process for a long time.
They realized that if it  proved   a   success at Marysville they would   have   to
adopt it, and only waited for   proot   of
ils efficiency   before   doing  so.-   The

Healthy   Hair .
Dandruff arises irom an unhealthy
condition   of the scalp.     Tl;c  "best
treatment is by friction.   Use a .good
stiff bristle brush night and morning
There is a lotion,  composed   of two
drams ol borax diassolve'd in one  pint
of rosemary watcr^-which is said to
be beneficial,   applied   three   times
each week and thoroughly   rubbed
into tho scalp"   Friction or ma?sage
is usually recommended-as the best
treatment.    Wash the* head   once
every ivio weeks, and   when   doing
so massage the seal]) vigorously .yilh
the linger tips   employing a   rotary
motion.   Another means of siiinultit-
ng thc healthy action of the scalp is
to separate the hair when shampooing
and scrub the scalp thoroughly  wjth
a linger brush.   This, with tl c nias-
soge'oftlie lingers, will  eft. ctunlly
prevent the condition termed scalp-
bound, and tend to  eradicate, .-dandruff.   This treatment should be continued.    It the litiir does not   grow,
