Iafru at Their Own Game.
AVait two years ago a Missouri Kiver
i-learn boat left Fort b.-ntoii with a party
of tough and well-to-do miners tin board.
There were a!.- among the passengers
three or four "brace m:-n," and before ar
riving at Sioux City they had geneinlly

Vi'i'!!, he got t iti b.,avd ami the boat start
ed down the stream. I' r two days he was
unnoticed by the other passengers, but one
of the .-port.-, at last thought he saw a eiianee
to Tiinkr something out of the sad and mel
ancholy individual. The latter weald once
or twice a day .-tep up ( the bar, and, with
a voice that wis as mild and gentle as, a
maiden's, ask for "a glass of soda if yoa
please." and the;i l.e would pall a roll of
bills from his p.ckct and take a quarter
from their interi.tr layers. Tlien he would
f-ay to the barkeeper, as if under a thousand
oh!ipi:i .ns, 'Thank yon, sir," and walk aft
again as it" about to eommit suicide.
The thing had gone far enough, and the
gambler I Lave spuLcu of at last approached
him.

but received no answer. Getting into a boat

vessel, lie saw through the port-hole a man
at a taV.'e, as though keeping a log-book,
frozen to death, The last date in ihe log
book was 1TGJ, showing that the vessel had
been drilling f.-r thirteen years among the
ice. The snilors were found frozen among

A bard, close man was Solomon Iiay;
Nothing of value he gave away;
He h on nled ami saved
And be pinched and shaved;
And the wore be had the inure he craved.
The hard-earned dollars he toiled to gain
Brought him little but care aud pain;
For little he spent,
And all that be lent
He made it bring him twenty per cent.
This was the life of Solomon Kay;
The years went by, and his hair grew gray;
His cheeks grew thiu,
Aud his heart withiu
Grew bard as the dollars he worked to win.
But be died one day, as all men must,
i'or life is Meeting, and man but dust;
And the heirs were gay
That laid him away;
This was the end of Solomon liay.
Thev quarre'ied now, who had little cared
For Solomon ltay while his life was snared;
His lands were so'.d,
And his hard earned gold
All went to the lawyers, I aiu told.
Yet men will pinch, and cheat, aud save.
Hot carry thtir treasures beyond the grave.
All their gold, some day,
"Will melt away
Like the selfish saviugs of Solomon Ray.

Method of llinbulniiiig.

body was recently embalmeil, is said to be
even more effective in the preservation of the '
dead tlian that of the ancient Egyptians. It

the circulatory system is cleansed thoroughly
by washing w itli old water till it issues
quite clear from the body. This may occupy

plawd his customer in the chair and eoiu
m.eneeil operations by sj.itting on tlie soap
and rubbing it over tho reiitleiiian"s face.
Ulood and "o.uids," was the iliijant remark
r the Irishman ; "is that the way you .have
of tl
a gentleman : at me same time preparing
in his wrath to overturn the wig minister.
"It is the way we shave a gentleman,
Senor." "Then how do you shave a p oi
man?" "We spit in his face, and rub the
oap over that," was the Spaniard's reply.
"Oh, then, If I remember nothing else but
tlie -ne thing, it'll be the Spanish barber's
Jtx.tjii lion.'" And so saying, the Hibernian
rose, paid the demand, and made tracks lot
his mother heath.
