The Care of Water Boiler. The officers of the Oregon claim that her tremendous exploit in running that never to be forgotten race against time in order to be in at the death of the Spanish flet is to a certain extent traceable tc the fact that salt water was never allowed in her boilers. There have been many discissions pro and eon on the advisability of using salt water. One old engineer declares that if he could run his boilers with rain water they would outlast the men who run them. Be that as it may. there surely is some fault in the management of boilers when they give out so quickly. There are various compounds that are recommended for use ;n boilers, but most of them have some s.rong alkaline ingredient, which is never good for metal of any kind. It would be well to experiment with rain water with a view to ascertaining Itl value for such uses. Tanks and catch pans mfgbt be expensive, but once arranged they are what one might call fixed property, if they save the value of a few boilers every year, they would give excellent returns for the money invested in their equipment.

His father was one of the early pio

neers, and his mother was an Indian, being a member of the tribe of the famous Ifalangeons, who compose nearly the entire population of Hancock county now. The Rev. Mr. Keateraon is no ordinary man. He is one ol the tallest men in Tennessee, perhaps in America. His height is seven feet eight inches, though, he claims that when in the prim of manhood he was over eight feet tall. His weight is SW pounds. Years ago. when Hancock county was not so thickly populated as it is now with men of education, and lawlessness va: at its height, the Rev. Mr. Keateraon was the terror of that part of the country. Brought up within more than 1" miles of a c ity of any note, he Betet heard the whistle of 1 locomotive or saw the iron monsters till a year or so ago. when he went to Knoxrille, Tenn.

A NATION OF DYSPEPTICS. Fri'tn tjtc Mountaineer, Walhalla, N. Dakota The remorse of a guilty stomach is what a large majority of the people ore suffering witli to-day. Dyspepsia is a characteristic American disease and it is frequently stated that "we a nation of dyspeptics." Improper food, harried eatiug. mental worry, exhaustion: any of these produce a lack of vitality in the system, by causing the blood to lo-e its Ufe-sustaing elements. The blood is the vital element in our lives and should le carefully nurtured. Restore the blood to it proper condition, dyspepsia will vanish and good health follow".

THE REV. MR. KESTERSON AND ANOTHER MAN OP ORDINARY HEIGHT. killed at least seven nion. The old preacher denies this; he acknowledges tho errors of his youth, hut says that he never killed that many. As to the number of men that have bit the dust at his hands he is silent. The Rev. Mr. Kesterson was not only a bad man In his youth, but continued to defy the law until about 30 years ago. when he joined the Baptist church, and began preaching. Until he reformed he ran a moonshine stM! on Walker! ridge, and woe betide the reenue officers that dared molest him. In fact. It is said that no revenue offteer ever bothered him much, he was so well known, and they knew his deadly aim. Now, however, since his conversion, quite a change has come over him. He does everything that he can to break up lawlessness, and is "death" to the moonshiners. When not preaching in the different schoolhouses be farms. lie works hard. 1 hough getting along in years, gives his money to the ioor and needy, and lives a happy life. He would not be taken for a man over B0. He is an inveterate chewer and smoker. For 73 years he has lived alone in "single blessedness."

Harvest Festlvak In Italy. In Italy agriculture has made little progress, yet the season of the harvest

Host Colors for Sohllrs ITniformK. Scarlet, it has always been supposed, was the worst color possible for the purposes of the battlefield, says an English paper. It has been said so with muc h frequency, indeed, that nobody of late years has cared to dispute the fact. We owe it tc some very practica experiments a rri"d out in Germany that the question has now been put on a more satisfactory basis. A squad of ten men. two dressed la light grey, two In dark grey, two In scarlet, two in blue and two in green, were lately orde red to march aeross an open country. Their movements were closely watched. The first men to disappear were those in light grey, immediately afterwards the scarlet, then the dark grey, and finally the blue and green. Here we have all the worn-out theories upset. Experiments carried out on the rifle range showed that our national colors possesses even distinct merits. The idea was this time to ascertain which color gave the worst mark for the rifle. Twenty men. all good shots, were used for the purpose of the experiment. After they had fired I given number of rounds, it wafl discovered that scarlet was far the BKMt difficult color to hit. For every miss at the other colors, there was three in favor of scarlet.
