Terrors of a Dakota Blizzard.

A snowfall which in some localities would scarcely make good sleighing becomes in this region a foe to human life of almost inconceivable fury. The flakes are always small and dry, and borne along by winds of such power as . to make locomotion almost impossible; they cut the flesh like razors. The blizzard comes up suddenly, like a tornado, wrapping the earth in semi-dark-ness, and yet giving everything the appearance of whiteness. Objects a dozen yards away are shut out from view, and the wayfarer is blinded and stifled by the whizzing clouds which envelop him. In thirty minutes from the beginning of one of these storms it is hard to tell whether there is one foot or five feet of snow, and whether, in fact, the greater part is on the ground ©r in the air. When a blizzard once attacks a section it grows colder very rapidly, and, added to the- terrors of people who may be caught in it on the open prairies, is the extreme probability that they will freeze to death. As nothing can prevent a man losing his way in a blizzard, so nothing in the shape of clothing can prevent his freezing to death if he cannot find shelter from the cold which follows. It is very difficult to tell just when it stops sndwing. The wind keeps the air filled with icy particles; long after the clouds have passed away, and so furiously is the light snow driven by the gale that even then the vision is almost as circumscribed as before. A stranger experiencing this stage of a blizzard would protest that he never saw it snow so fast, but in the momentary lulls of. the wind he would see the cloudless sky and know that the blinding blast was but the afterclap of the great storm. There will be drifts ten feet high packed so hard that a human foot will sink in them but a few inches. Then there wilt be acres of wind-swept earth as destitute of snow as in midsummer. To live in these blizzards is almost an impossibility. No horse can be made to face the blast, and only men who have long been accustomed to the rigors of the north can breathe in them. There is something suffocating about the wind. The nostrils and tongue seem ready to congeal and the eyes ache far back in their sockets. Ten > feet away may yawn a chasm, yet the driving snows will hide it from view. There is a ringing, roaring noise, such as is sometimes faintly heard under telegraph wires on a clear, cold night. At times the roar of the storm will resemble nothing so much as escaping steam. . like a thousand locomotives blowing off at once. When this dies out for an instant the ringing noise will rise and fall, sometimes a shriek and sometimes a hum.— Dakota letter.

A Milkman’s Idea.

A short, ruddy-faced, waggin gtongued man told me he was’returning from the West, where he had been traveling for pleasure and with a view to making mining investments. He was not at all backward in giving me the impression that lie was worth 1 money, and upon inquiry' I found he was just as free to tell the manner of its acquirement. “I have been in the milk business in an Eastern town for a_ good many years,” he said. “In fact, I am in the business in a number of towns, and have a pretty good thing of it. Of course, you are thinking right away that I put water in the cans, but you are mistaken. I never watered a milk-can in my life. There is an honester, surer, safer way than that to get rich in the milk business, and I’ll give you the secret, as 1 know you’re not in the biz. When I first started driving my own wagon, fourteen years ago, I quickly found that nothing, not even good milk and low prices, would bring customers like gossip. Yes, sir, gossip—some town scandal, family secret, bit of news, or something. Well, I used to take particular pains to have something of that kind every morning. If there had been any births or deaths during the night, accidents, fires, arrests of town folk, a new scandal, or anything, I had it on my tongue’s' end, and, while drawing the milk, would spit it out at a lively rate. You would be surprised to see how the mistresses on my route got to coming out after their own milk, instead of sending the hired girl. Why, they used to be on the wait for me, and take an extra pint half the time, just to keep me had more customers than! ranld-uecfe, - though I claimed better milk than anybody else, and sold it 1 cent higher. Then I branched out—hired other drivers, and bought a dairy of my own. Every one of my drivers has to be up to snuff in the gossip, though. When there isn’t anything else for ’em to tell, I invent little, short stories and sayings, not improper ones, but double—-what-do-ydu-eall-ems ?—double intenders, and thev eatch on big. The result is, I have a practical monopoly of the milk business in four good towns, and am making money hand over fist. If vou want to build up a trade in anything, you must study to please, you know’” and' the ruddy-cheeked man laughed and seemed to feel real good. Herald.

Mantel Lambrequins.

A. thin board is first fitted to the mantel shelf, and satin of some color corresponding with that used elsewhere in the room is used to cover the top, and extend far enough down in front and ends of mantel to line the open work in the lace; antique insertion seven inches wide, to which has been neatly joined an edging of the same width and similar pattern, is fastened to tlfe edge of the board which lies on the mantel top. The lining can extend to the tips of the pointed edging if preferred, and in that case must be so fastened to it as not to show below the lace. Then on each, and between each point, fasten a double chenille tassel the color of the lining. Lace of sufficient width to be used without the insertion is very handsome, but is difficult to obtain; it makes, however. a very pretty decoration for a small stand. These lambrequins are especially suited to sleeping rooms, and when curtains made of batiste, trimmed with the same kind of lace, are hung at the windows and draped back with satin

ribbons and antique squares used for the dressing table mats, the effect is very pleasing.— Floral Cabinet.

Horace Greeley’s Boyhood.

Horace .Greeley’s personal appearance was always a subject of remark from his boyhood. Hollins C. Mallary, a member of Congress from Vermont, who was an able champion of the American system, used to narrate a visit of his to the printing office of a country newspaper at Poultney, Vt,, his place of residence. His attention was attracted to a young compositor, who was rather awkwardly “sticking types,” and who, though full grown, was evidently the youngest apprentice in the office. His legs ran a good deal more than “a feet” through his pantaloons, the sleeves of his coat scarcely reached below his elbows, his hair was very white and flaxen, and he was, on the Ithole, in the aggregate, taken separately and together, the greenest looking specimen of humanity we ever looked at, and this is saying a good deal, for “we keep a looking glass. ” “That boy, ’’ said Mr. Mallary, “will make a remarkable man; I can’t hold an argument with him on Masonry or anything else connected with politics.” Ag Mr. M. was considered one of the ablest men in Congress, his remark caused us some surprise; and we not only “made a note of it,” but took another look at the “devil” (printer’s me mean), add could not but- trace in the expansive forehead “a mind formed in nature’s rfinest mold and. wrought for immortality.” It was years afterward that we became aware of the fact that that boy was Horace Greeley.— Ben : Perley Poore’s Reminiscences.

Didn’t Want Any.

A colored man who had acquaintance with one of the stall-keepers at the Central Market hung around for half an hour the other day before saying: “ See yere, boss, I ..wants, to ax ye a queshun or two.” “All right.” “I kin get my household furncher insured for $400.” “Yes.” “ An’ it won’t cost but $3. ” “Well?” “ Wallt ’spose I had dat furncher insured an’ de house should catch fiah an’ eberyting burn up ? ” • 3 “In that case, my colored brother, you’d be jerked into jail so quick that your head wouldn’t have time to swim, and from the jail you’d go to State Prison for at least ten years. ” “What fur?” “ Why, for setting the fire.” “Am dat possible? Wall, Ize werry much obleeged to yer, ap’ Ize made up my mind to save de $3 an’ let de S4OO go.”— Detroit Free Press.

Laughter.

We all know the infection of a merry, ringing laugh, and we do know as well the delight of one that is mellow and sweet as the peal of a silver bell? It is as easy to cultivate a musical laugh as a musical voice, and how rich and entertaining it is. “(Jail it the well’s bubbling, the bird’s warble!” Ladies who would charm by their graceful carriage and supple movement do not hesitate to acquire such accomplishments by careful training. Then why not practice the tones in laughing until they become as invariably melodious as they are genuine? There need be no more affectation in this than in developing a pure, sweet tone in speaking or singing, and it is a matter decidedly worth considering.

Safety in Sewers and Wells.

Experience has taught that cesspools, cisterns and old wells, from their contents (as in the case of the first), and from the absence of all air currents, accumulate poisonous gas and vapors absolutely deadly to human and animal life. To insure the safety of any one compelled to descend into such places it is necessary to lower, by means of a string or wire, a tin pan (or other flat -vessel) containing a small quantity of ordinary gunpowder, and then ignite that by dropping live coals on it. After the explosion it is well to lower a lighted candle to the bottom. If it continues to burn, it can be taken as a sure test that all danger is removed, and the descent can safely be made.— Health and Home.

The Survival of the Fittest.

in? w askeff a lady at a dowu-town dressmaking establishment. “No, ma’am,” said the girl in charge;, “was she to give yon a fit this morning?” "No; I came to give her a fit!” answered the angry customer. “I want her to alter this dress so I can wear it. Do you suppose she can ? “She can, if she sees tit,” replied the rl - ''' “Well, the dress is a misfit,” said the customer, as she left it and walked out. —Free Press.

Colors of Flowers.

An English writer says that “the three primary colors, red, blue, and yellow, are not to be found pure in any species of flower. ” Thus we have red and blue in the fuchsia, but no yellow; yellow and red in the rose, but no blue; blue and yellow in the pansy, but no red; and so on. If this is universally true it is certainly very curious. According to Humboldt and other modern authorities, however, the three primary colors are red, green, and blue, as maintained by Brjewster. The largest known flower, says the Scientific Farmer, is that of a parasitical plant, the Rafllesia Arnold! The plant has no proper stem or leaves, but consists of flowers, varying in diameter from 2 to 3 inches to 2 to 3 feet, enveloped at base by a few bluish or | brownish scales, and ‘ emerging from the roots and trunks of various species of Cissns in Sumatra. The flowers remain expanded but a few days, and then putrefy. , Reax merit of any kind cannot be concealedpit will be discovered, and nothing can depreciate it but' a man’s showing it himself. It may not always be. rewarded as it ought; but it will always-be known. . .

Rough on the Insects.

A gentleman of refinement and culture, probably an editor, put up at a San Antonio hotel. After he had been there a day or so the landlord asked him how he liked the place. “Hike the town and the people very much indeed, but I am troubled with insomnia.” “You don’t look like a drinking man,” responded the landlord, incredulously. “I mean that I can’t.sleep.” “Well, I know what will cure that, too—some chloral will put—you tn sleep.” “I’ve got a better plan than that. ” “What is it?” “Give the chloral to thd insects in your beds. They have insomnia worse than I have. I caught it from them ” Texas Siftings. As if in sorrow for having destroyed the golden age, the gods have given women, who can more than restore it.

“After This the Deluge!”

May wdll have been the exclamation of residents in the regions recently •flooded, who beheld dwellings swept away, rich farms laid waste, bridges undermined and towns inundated. Worse, than this is the prevalence of malarial diseases as the consequence of miasmabreeding mists. Guard against them with Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, a most desirable medicinal protection for residents dr temporary sojourners in malariousi loealities. Chills and fever, dumb ague, ague cake,: and bilious re-, mittent yield-to th.i« effective remedy, and the nervous and enfeebled acquire a degree of tone and vigor by its use which fortifies them against the insidious attacks of malaria. Diseases of the stomach, liver, and bowels, rheumatism, nervous ailments, and kidney and bladder complaints are thoroughly relieved by it. If ever a i emedy deserved the recognition of its merits, long accorded to it, it is this standard medicine. - What there is in a name—Mr. Thinne is the President of the Boaton Fat Men's Club.— Boston Post. :

Merited Praise.

The universal praise bestowed upon Kid-ney-Wort as an invaluable remedj- for all disorders of the Kidneys, Liver and Bowels is well merited. Its virtues are universallyknown and its cures are reporteflon all sides. Many obstinate cases have succumbed to it after they had been given up by the doctors and a thorough treatment will never fail to cure. Sold by all druggists. See adv’t.

It gives the golden color of June, and adds five cents per pound to the value of the butter. The man who lost hisshoes is disconsolate. They were his sole support.

A Cure for Pneumonia.

Mr. D. H. Barnaby, of Owego, N. Y., says that his daughter was taken with a violent cold which terminated with pneumonia, and all the best physicians gave the case up and said she could live but a few hours at most. She was in this condition when a friend recommended Dr. Win. Hall’s Balsam for the Lungs "and advised her to try it. She accepted it as a last resort, and was surprised to find that it produced a marked change for the better, and by persevering a permanent cure was ejected.

A Dangerous Case. * * • BocHum, Jtmo 1,1883, "Ton - Years ago I wm attacked with the meet Intense and deathly pains in and “Extending to the efid oi my toe# and to my brain! “Which made me delirious! “From agony. “It took three men to hold me on my bed at times! “The Doctors tried in vain to relieve me. But to no purpose. “ Morphine and other opiates “Had no effect! “After two months I was given up to diei - “When my wife heard a neighbor tell what Hop Bitters had done for her, she at once got and gave me some. The first dose eased my brain and seemed to go hunting through my system for the pain. — r - “The second dose eased me so much that I slept two hours, something I had not done for two months. Before I had used five bottles I was well and at work, as hard as any man could, for over three weeks; but I worked too hard for my strength, and, taking a hard cold, I was taken with the most acute and painful rheumatism all through my system that was ever known. I called the doctors again, and after several weeks they left me a cripple on crutches for life, as they said. I met a friend and told him my case, and he said Hop Bitters had cured him and would cure me. I poohed at him, but he was so earnest I was induced to use them agirin. Tn less than four weeks I threw away my crutches and went to work lightly, and kept on using the bitters for five weeks, until I became as well as any man living, and have been so for six years since. It also cured my wife, who had been so for years; and has kept her and my children well and hearty with from two to three bottles per year. There is no fieed to be sick at all if these bitters are used. J. J.
