Come Easy, Go Easy.
High Prices Paid for Small Service at
the Race-Track.
It is a well-known fact that the value
of money is less appreciated by regular
racing people than by any other class of
people in the world, even including gold
miners, who are notoriusly extravagaut
in spending their wealth. A person who
visits a big race meeting for the first
time is astounded at the reckless manner
in which large sums of money are passed
back and forth between the bettors and
the bookmakers. Jockeys, like “Andy”
McCarthy, who are mere youths, walk
up to a betting stand and, as if it were
the most common occurrence, pull out
an enormous roll of greenbacks and
lace $500, and even $1,000, on a single
Be It is ‘come easy, go easy” with
these lads,and they “aven’t the remotest
idea of the real value of money.
On Suburban day a New York World
reporter saw McCarthy cash six tickets
on Bill Bond of $200 each, saying: “I
knew Larchmont couldn’t run a little
bit,” and stuflifig this small fortune into
his trousers pocket, he walked off as un-
concerned as possible. A clerk on fair
wages would have to be very economical
in order to save this sum from a $1,200
salary in two years. :
On a race-course everything is a great
deal more expensive than elsewhere. A
glass of beer costs 10 cents, a ham sand-
wich 20 certs, and everything in pro-
portion. Salaries are very high, the
starter receiving $100 per day. Jockeys
received $25 for each winning mount,
and men like Garrison are paid over $10,-
000 a season to ride for a certain stable.
The bookmakers,seventy-five in number
at Sheepshe:d Bay, pay $100 each per
day for their privilege. They employ
three clerks at $10 per day each, and all
their expenses are proportionally heavy.
As soon as the judges hang out the
numbers of the winning horses a man is
seen to rush down to the bookmakers’
pavilion, shouting ‘‘Raceland wins! Ter-
ra Cotta second!” at the top of his
voice. This man is the old-time sport,
Barney Aaron, and he receives for this
slight servize $1 per day from each
bookmaker on the line. - As there are
seventy-five of them, he receives the
princely sum of $75 per day, or $1,125
for the fifteen days of the meeting, for
erforming a service that could be done
¥ a messenger boy.
“Jim,” the colored boy who carries
ice-water around among the bookmakers’
stands during the day gets 50 cents a
day from each one of the seventy-five
“bookies,” making his salary per diem
$37. A laborer only receives this much
for a month’s wages. The club paid out
about $10,000 on Suburban day in added
money to stakes and purses, but the
$7.500 from the ‘bookies’ alone rearly
made this up, while $15,000 must have
been taken in atthe gate. All privileg-
es for restaurants, etc., are sold at an
enormously high figure, and it can well
be said that money is scattered about in
a princely fashion at a big race meet-
ing.
Bookmakers also say that the money
handled over their books is of the
greasiest and most tattered order, and
that all the old ragged money seems to
Have been saved up by the race-goer for
especial use at the race-track.
m—
Cow and Rattler Fight to a Finish.
A fight to the death between a fine
milch cow and a large rattlesnake occur-
ed recently on the farm of Joseph Car-
ter, in Bibb county, Ala.
Mr. Carter had turned his cows into a
fresh pasture, where there was some very
fine grass which they began to eagerly
devour, says the St. Louis Globe-Demo-
crat. A small ditch ran through the
pasture, and on its bank the grass was
very thick.
The cows were feeding in a bunch on
the bank of this ditch when they scent-
ed a rattlesnake and moved away, with
the exception of .one large black cow.
Shé stood for a moment looking in the
direction the snake was supposed to be.
The grass was very fine in that direction
and the cow soon made up her mind.
She ventured a little further forward, oc-
casionally stopping and looking about
her, evidently trying to discover the
snake.
She had moved forward perhaps ten
feet from the point where the animals
first scented dancer, when, without the
customary warning rattle, the snake
struck and buried its fangs in the lower
jaw of the cow.
The cow did not run away, but tack-
ing slowly a few feet she stood still se-
veral moments, lashing her tail from
side to side. Then with a mad bellow
she plunged forward directly toward the
spot where the rattlesnake was lying
hidden in the grass.
The snake was on the alert, and again
struck, burying its fangs in the animal's
nose this time. This seemed to madden
the cow, and she plunged forward,
trampling the snake in the ground with
her fore feet and trying in vain to pin
it with her horns.
The snake was soon cut and trampled
to death, and the cow died from the
effects of the two bites in a few hours.
Women as Physicians.
“One of the most absurd arguments
used against a girl who wishes to become
a physician,” said a blue-eyed, fair-hair-
ed medical student in petticoats the
other day, “is that the disagreeable
sights and, experiences of the dissecting-
room, if they do ot altogether over-
pow-r her fortitude, will coarsen her
feelings and destroy her delicacy. Bah,
I say to such mawkish sentimentality.
No one thinks it hardens a girl to nurse
a sick person, and yet I tell you that in
ministering to the sick, and the dying,
and the dead in the capacity of a nurse
I have seen sights as ghastly and per-
formed far more distasteful and exhaus-
ing labor than T would have been called
on to do if I had been the physician ;
and all the time I knew nothing of that
keen interest in the scientific part of the
work which I now have, that so absorbs '
my attention and thoughts that what is
revolting to others is by me almost un-
noticed.——New York Tribune.
wh
How to Coax a Man to Propose.
An elderly man was telling a group of
gidd@young girls the other day how he
proposed to his wife when he was a
young man. She was sewing at the
time, he said, or he never would have
had the courage to do it. If girls would
sew he thinks they would have more
matrimonial chances. Sewing he con-
siders the best accomplishment a woman
can have. A woman engaged with a
needle has a domestic, homelike air that
is irresistable to a man who loves her. It
is a picture of what she would be in her
own home, and makes him long that it
should be his also. How can aman pro-
pose to a girl who sits straight up in her
chair staring at him with a pair of
bright eyes? But when she is bending
gracefully over a bit of plain or fancy
sewing, apparently absorbed in counting
the stitches, and the arrows of her eyes
are sheathed for a few minutes,h3 plucks
up enough courage to offer her his heart
and hand. The uverage young man is
bashful in such affairs, though bold
enough at other times, and needs en-
couragement and opportunities. What
sort of encouragement is a pair of bright
eyes staring into his, watching his em-
barrassment? Listen to the advice of
an old man who has been all through it;
drop your eyes and give the young man
a chance. Remember this, girls, when
the favorite young man drops in to make
an evening visit, get out your bit of
fancy work and look domestic, and with
every stitch of your needle you will
bind his heart more firmly to your own.
This is the advantage that the English
girls are said to possess over the Ameri-
can girls—they are domestic; if they
shine, less brilliantly in society than
their American sisters theirdomestic vir-
tues shed a steady luster in their houses.
This, of course, is looking at the ques-
tion from an English point of view. The
American girls are capable of doing
both ; domesticity is not incompatible
with a social brilliancy, and many of
society’s queens are caretul housekeepers,
keeping their sweetest words and siniles
for their own homes.
Hints to Home Dressmakers.
Surplice waists of thin dresses have the
fullness from the shoulders prettily shap-
ed into a pointed yoke by drawing rib-
bons through a casing made of facing an
inch-wide strip from each armhole to a
point lower down on the edge of the
front. The ribbons meet at the point of
the bust and are tied in a bow. Surplice
waists of embroidered muslin have their
front edges straight from the shoulder
down, then edged with a Valenciennes
lace fri]l, and crossedlat the waist line.
This leaves a V space at the top, disclos-
ing the pretty plain white lawn lining,
with its tiny thread buttons, and above
is a turned-over collar of the embroidery
und lace, which is first sewed on a high
standing collar of the lawn.
Eight or ten rows of shirring around
the waist line are employed by French
modistes to hold the fullness of blouse
waists of sheer white lawn. The mate-
rial then falls two inches below the
shirring,and lace or embroidered edging,
also two inches wide, is sewed to the
edge of the muslin.
Full straight skirts of lawn are gath-
ered to a belt of lawn, and the ribbon
belt and sash are then set permanently
outside of this lawn belt. The skirt is
put on after the waist is on, and there is
no ugly opening between the waist and
skirt. A French tancy is a new way of
using ribbons on white lawn skirts. The
skirt is straight, and is deeply shirred be-
low the belt, having six rows of shirring
done in pairs, leaving a space an inch
and a half wide between these double
rows. Ribbon an inch wide is then
passed in and out in the spaces between
the pairs of shirring.— Courier-Journal.
—A very interesting calculation Las
recently been made by the Statistical
Bureau in Berlin. Four-fifths of the;pow-
er machines at present in activity in the
world have been erccted during the
past 25 years. The country having
the most steam power is the Unit-
ed States, with 7,500,000 horse pow-
er; then follow England, with 7,000,000
Germany, with 3,000,000, and Austro-
Hungary, with 1,500,000. These figures
do not include locomtives, of which there
are 100,000 at work, while the total horse
power of the world is 45,000,000. A
steam ‘‘horse power” is equivalent to
three actual horses’ strength, and a
living horse represents the strength of
seven men. Thus the total horse power
of the entire world represents the work of
1,000,000,000 men, or more than twice
the working population of the earth.
Steam has thus trippled the entire hu-
man work power of the earth.
—Theree Oaks, Mich., enjoys the dis-
tinction of being the home of 2 novel
industry—the only one of its kind in the
United States, and the first of its kind
in the world. It is that of making dress
forms, corsets and whips from feather-
bone, or the quill of the goose and turkey
feathers. Mr. E.K. Warren, the inven-
tor of this new and popular substitute
for whalebone, is also the inventor of all
the machinery for the different processes
of the manufacture. The manufacture
of this unique article was commenced
less than five years ago, yet the demand
for it has been so great that the capacity
has been increased to enormous propor-
tions and additional factories establish-
ed in Canada and France.
—¢ Well,”” aid Unele H ram, who
used to belong to a singing club in his
early days, “I never heard a woman
play like that woman we heard in Bos-
ton that night. It was just awful. My
ears ache even now.” “Yes,” replied
his nephew, “she was rather loud, that’s
a fact. But then her execution--"
“George!” exclaimed the old gentleman
as he seized his nephew by the arm,
i “you don’t mean to say that they went
as far as that? Well, ’tisn’t for me to
judge them. I only heard her once. It
seems terrible—a woman, too; but then
they had to listen to her every night.
And they won’t have to hear her again.
Perhaps it is all for the best, George.” —

Left To Die Alone.
A Country Minister's Death-Bed—De-
serted by the Last Deacon.
The parson of a couniry church was
lying in his bed; three months’ arrears
of salary was pillowing his head; his
couch was strewn with tradesmen’s bills
that picked his sides like thorns, and
nearly all life’s common ills were goad-
ing him with horns. The deacon sat
besides him as the moments ticked away
and bent his head to catch the words his
pastor had to say.
“If I never shall arise from this hard
bed-on which I lie, if my welfare is ac-
complished and it’s time for me to die,
take a message to thesexton before I pass
away; tell him fires are for December
and opens doors for May. Tell him,
when he lays the notices upon the pul-
pit’s height, to shove them ’neath the
cushion, far out of reach and sight.
And when he hears the preacher’s voice
in whispers soft expire, that is the time
to slam the door and rattle at the fire.
And tell the others decons, too, all
through the busy week, to hang their
boots up in the sun to hatch a Sunday
squeak. With steel shod canes to prod
the man who comes to sleep and snore;
and use the boys who laugh in church
to mop the vestry floor. There's anoth-
er, too, the woman who talks the sermon
through; tell her I will not mind her
buzz, my hearing hours are few. Tell
her to hang her mouth up on some Sun-
day for a minute, and listen to a text,
at least without 8 whisper in it. And
tell the Board of Trustees not to weep
with bitter tears, for I can’t be any
deader now than they have been for
years. And tell half my congregation
'm glad salvation’s free, for that’s the
only chance for them——between the
desk and me. And a farewell to the
choir——how the name my memory racks!
If the name my memory voices as they
do get up their backs—why the stars
would hear their music and the welkin
would rejoice, while the happy congre-
gration could hear a single voice. But
tell them I forgive them, and oh, tell
them that I said I wanted them to sing
for me—when you're sure that am
dead. !
His voice was faint and hoarser, but
it gave a laughing brea k, a kind of
gurgling chuckle, like a minister might
make. And the deacon he rose slowly,
and sternly he looked down upon the
parson’s twinkling eye with a porten-
tous frown; and he stifly said “Good
morning,” as he went off in his ire, for
the deacon was the leader of that amia-
ble choir.
Catarrah Can't be Cured
with LOCAL APPLICATION ,as they
cannot reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrah is a blood or constitutional dis-
ease, and in order to cure it you have to
take internal remedies. Hall’s Catarrah
