STORY OF A BABY'S SHOE. totiotatioun of Mr Sad Fate of a Little CIA in-a Montana Wootto. • A little over three years ago a little girl named Sarah Godfrey strayed away from the home of her parents, who resided id the time ,• north of Walkerville, Monte= A searZl for the child was made by the rela- Aiscs. but without success. ( Won/ was sent to Walkerville and this. city and seventy-five or ono hundred men engaged in the search for the little • one, which proved fruitless. .The country surrounding the home the little child had left was thoroughly examined for mites, but not even a shred of the clothing s worn by her could be found. A drizzling min, accompanied by a slight snowfall, added to the general difficulty of the under taking and all hope of finding her was abate-1, cloned. ' The general supposition was that j the had strayed into the timber and was seized and borne off by some: wild beast;,a bear or mountain lion. Prominent citizens of Butte, sympathiiing with the parents, offered a reward for: the delivery of the lost ?bald to her parents, dead or alive, gr for information that would lead to her recovery. For some time there was a number of per. sons who still sought the whereabouts of the child, but they at Lest gave up the's:arch and considered farther effort in that direction hopeless. A few days since the parents of the child received word that a little shoe, had been found about a mile and tkhalf from the place where the child strayed frtam. Stnne hunt ers found the shoe on the 2d instant: They did not knots of a child having been lost, and consequently did not mention the "occur rence for several days. Mr. Godfrey went to see the men. The shoe was handed hhia and he recognized . it as one of the pair worn •by his daughter when she left ;home. Pro ceeding fo the locality where the shoe was picked up, they found also a piece of a stocking and remnants of a skirt, which were; also identified as belonging to the lost child. Near by was a bear's den. It was entered and searched, but there was nothing further • discovered. Mr. Godfrey is desirous' of '..rttaking another search in the hope that the bones of his daughter may be discovered and given burial —Butte Inter-Oetan. r=1:0 Lire and Learn!

SWEDISH WEDDINGS. - A wedding, if the contracting parties ,are well-to-do, is a great f.oeial,ec,rent, and prep arations are made for it week's - in advance. Large quantities of hard and soft bread are baked, many sheep and oxen slaughtered, and an abundance of baron, butter, cheese, and potatoes laid in. Cnforturtately tem perance societies have'° not converted the Swedes from their ancient drinking enstoMs. At weddings they drink to excess, and,. a large supply:4:d strong ale, spirits, wine, Mad punch is provided. An ancient custom called "forming," ordains that each guest shall bring a contri;,ution of eatables end driukableS to the feat. The neighbors come forward and offer their dwellings for lodging-houses, and bring out their best lin en sheets and pillow-cases. Early .in the morning the bride.goes to the house of her father-in-law to make her toilette, which re quires several hours and the aid of many helpers. Tne ceremony is performed in church, and the larger the procession which accompanies the bride and groom thither, the greater the honor done. _Open house is kept for a week. The most honored guests and nearest relatives are required by etiquette to keep-themselves modestly in the yard. When the host calls their names for the first table, they must suffer themselves to be dragged to their places. It would be thought rude to go at once. The groom's mother and sisters serve in the kitchen, and his brothers wait upon the guests at the table. All are pressed to eat and drink. Having Eaten at the bride's father's house, each guest is expected to go to the house of the groom's father to eat another meal. In the evening there is datreing,, and the bride . ' is expected to dance with every nranand the groom with every woman. At the third day there is a lull in the f-stivitir. The guests, from want of bleep and exce4sive eating and drinking, are suffering from a peculiar bead . ache, with severe throbbing pains in the temples. On the afternoon of the last day, the bride and groom, standing itr• the largest room, receive the farewells of_thc • guests. Every one as he leaves phis' intoithe hand of the bride some bauk.billi • Wit'Mat looking at it she drops it into a Lig line 4 pOnch at Ler side. A popular bride often gets money 'enough to start her husband a good way itt his new life. ••ROL;GH ON ltAtS.', Clears out rats, mice, readmit, flies, ants, bed-bugs, flunks, chipmunks, gophers. 150 Ibrug,gistit.

Be is easily recognized by his rotundity of form, his serene unconscious nese of the frets and wortiments which make railroading a misery to the ordinary mortal, and his supreme indifference to the comfort of his felb3w-passengers:' The self-possesst.d man inevitably secures, by . a sort of natural selection, the best seat in the car, always' on the shady side, and manages, by the aid of his bat, his traveling bag and his unassum ing tact and mastership of the situation, keep it to the end of his jounney. The self possessed man, having calmly settled him self in the centre of the sea, with has 'not upon one side and his - traVeling appurtenan ces on the other, slowly produces his LeWs , Taper, and proceeds to its perusal with nifled deliberation. Of course the ;telf,pepi. sessed man has his window wide open, but equally of co,nr/e he does not open it him self. The brakeman does that for him. :the as the brakrmari clambers over the under - . standings of the self-irsessed man to do it the self-possessed ratuf continues his reading with the %most' con:fluency and withimt losing a word. e time for startingnp• iproache4 every other seat is tilled, , hut na ' 1 ) 0 4 &twice:the self-possessed man.

The perfection of safe locks has now reached such a point that it is simply ha- possible for burglars to pick the best of the modern ones. Violence must be resorted to to get into the object upon which they are placed, and that knowledge has put the safe makers in turn upon their' mettle to bring their productions up to an equEd per fection with those of the lock makers. The burglar proof safe is from four and one-half to six inches thick, made, as have de scribed. The thicker it is, . the more time it takes to drill through it. One common defect is in the quality .of steel employed generally. It costs from 15 to 20 cents per pound, and of course can readily be drilled by afiner steel that costs 80 or 90 cents per pound. A finer and harder Steel should. be used.. But' in the System of construction there has been great progress. The hinges were once a weak p?)int for attack, but are so no longer.. Then an ingenious burglar had the happy idea of using an-air pump tc exhaust the air from inside n safe and cause the drawing in of fine powder through a minute crevice at the top of the door iintii enough of the explosive was got in to - bfirit open the safe; Now that is beaten ,by a rubber flange in a groove in the' casing of the &Or, which is fitted by a tongue in the doors 'To get the door closed in place, a crane hinge is generally' employed, though there are othe.r devices. Burglars limy sel dom waste time on the lock of a safe if they find it to be' a good iliodern One. They try to enter by drilling a hole near the lock and driving off, a,portion of the lock or' bolting, by. wedging . eiff ; a door, by . powder, or by waking up the cashier at home and making him go down to the bank and open the , safe. Britt.he time leek beats that latter game..., 'W h en it is set going it only unlocks at the specified business hours. Nights and Sun days it stays locked, and nobody can open it. So, when the burglar knows that there is a time lock on a safe that to r investi gate,' he also knows that 4 seless to dis turb theicashier's slumbers, '", if his fine tools and powder cannot make a way for him, independent of tlie lock, he may as' well let the job alone. - People sometimes think it queer, Ihy the wag, that an esplosin of a safe ran take place lit night in a crpwel e.d ntigbbnzliood with'ut creating a. general alarm. But it is not fit all strange.. _ When yon aro awakened suddenly from sleep by an enusual noise, you,Wait fbr its recurrence before you take the trouble to rise and 'find out what caused . it, and when you hear noth ing more,the c h ances are that you will fancy_ it the delusion of a dream and drOp off to sleep again. The burglar, when ho has ..blown a safe open, keeps very quiet for an hour or more, „until everybody within hear ing has had a chance to go to sleep again, and then, if in 'that time nobody I has come around to investigate, ho goes ahead with his operatious. Eight or nine years agO burglars blew open a safe in a bank under a hoteliin Frankfort, Ky. From the . haVoc made with the safe the explosion must have been very severe. , even shattered Ilea glass in the windows, ;and, twenty-five per soils in the hotel heard it, yet nobody got up, and the burglars' wet%) not interfered with.—.N.

' After coaling at Malta we steamed down the Medibrinmean, over the smoothest sea and beneath the bluest sky it was ever my loppy portion to sew It was about five O'clock one morning when we , first , saw the lighthouse in Port Said, awl !about eight we entered between the two pieis which !guard the entrance to the canal and stretch 1# out into the Mediterranean. Passing a Ttirkish frigate and a French ram, we slowly steam ed close to the left-hand shore and made East to a buoy. No sooner were we fast than the Arabs swarmed on board, and soon coal was coming over the side and into the bunkers at a rapid rate from barges along side. On the left hand, fora long distance, stretched coal sheds., 'for this Bribe great coaling ' port of steamers bound eastward, there being quite'a difference in the price ,here and at the other end of the canal. On. the right *es the ; town of Port Said, while in front, lost far , hi the desert, was the canal, the grandest engineering feat of the age. last fancy the moonlit' of labor, when it was necessary' to carry the sand a mile, : off into 'the desert, and at the seine time prevent the . =rounding sand from drifting andJ, into its place. Just take a handful of 'sand out from a pile and sec how,quickly the hol low is filled up, and you.gen then form some idea of the undertaking. I was ; told .out .here that the English abandoned the work , 'through inability to obtain laborers at any price, and that the French only succeeded Lby' convict labor; that the soldiers stood I I 1 i !!!I Ord and a refusal to work was instantly :followed by a shot, and that every foot of Ithe canal is a monument to some poor devil, sent in short order to the Arabian paradise. r However *this wag, the, canal was- finished ,and is to-day the only route for steamers to ;the East. About;2 o'clock the,pilot came on board and in a, few - minutest we left par moorings and steamed into the canal. The channel has about twenty.six feet of water in it';; which is only kept at that depth by constant work at the dredges: and 'by strengthening the sides by siXdzinglodk and walling Tip the sides where they are the most greatening. On both sides the. embink 'l inents rise up telt height of ten or fifteen feet and are composed of the dull brown sands, which stretch away on both sides' as far as the eye can see, the horizon surround. ed in the blinding - gbire of -the heated air a rising from the burning sands till the eyes -ache and the heart sickens at the dismal 'scene. With What relief we turn to - the canal stretching like a blue sparkling ribbOn. and feast our eyes at the sight :of a station looming up a half mile ahead with its little cottage, its shrubbery and trees planted right in the midst of a desert, and drawing ..life from a soil which had been brought a hun dred miles to make life endurable to the `stn- , tion master, banished away out' here, hun dreds of miles from his own fair France; for who else but a Frenchman would ever think of bringing his garden with 'him, with its dowers and trees, out here in this wilderness 'of sand? On the right hand side turns a track, and I was startled by the familiar round of - the engine 'whistle, and the next minute a train 'swept by at ; the rate of forty miles an hour.

At times, symp toms of indigestion are present, as flatueucy, uneasiness of the stomach, etc. A. moisture, like Perspiration, - producing a very disa gree4ble itching, particularly at night after getting.warin in bed, is' a very common at tendant. Internal, External and Itching Piles yield at once to the application of Dr: Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which acts direCtly upon the ini.rts affected, absorbing the Tu niorg, allaying the intense itching, and ef fecting a perinanent' cure where all .other 4,emedies have failed. , Do not delay until the drain on the system produces perma nent disability, but try- .. it and be cured.

We have frequently spoken of the great plains which lie between the eastern base of the:Rocky Mountains and the Missouri and which now are only fit for grazjug purtoses: The vast extent of this territory, which separates the nronntaiia mines from, the agricultnied distriete near the river, makes important the qtfeshon as to its fa-, hire. We 1 sve herette alluded to the fact•that each year the rea of rainfall ex s tends further West, so that places , not long ago never visited by :shoWerit "now receive sufficient rain to insure thelgrolth of crops.. • It seems as though in timetrain would fall as, far westkas Deriver, and thre s priiiries now only_ used for the grazing of herds, would be transformed , into fertile tlelds. In New Mexico and Arizona the people are depend. eat upon irrigafion, and by it are sure of raising immense crops of all kinds of vege. tables and grain. No finer crops are found than those produced by turning water upon the land, and the sage brush quickly disap pears after the water tduche? it. In Utah we have a practical example' of how irriga. lion transforms the desert 'into' a. garden. The soil of our great Wektern plains and of the Territories to the south is naturallk very rich; but is unProductive because of the • hack of rain. Yet there are - numberless streams which cail be utilized for purposes of irrigation. Even where the surface water is alkali, tootuneli so for drinking purposes, it has been found that by sinking, artesian wells.an abundance of sweet, Bare water is seemed. Here we have the solution of the , problem; which has often occurred tb so many, of the beet-way to utilize this part Of 424 territory, for we cannot expect to iave it all to the herdsmen and shepherds. IThe experiment of irrigation has been tried in western Kansas, as well as in Utah, and with perfect success, so that it seems as thOugh the prediction of Horace Greeley :would be realized, that the day would come wheit tee Kansas prairies would- be dotted with the sails of windmills, and when the sterile lands along the upper Arkansas would be pierced with irrigating ditches:and yield abundant crops. The plains are crossed by railroads, which are having the effect Of attracting set. tiers. The companies know'that theirpros. perity is to a lerge extent dependent upon the development to the utmost of: the local resources along their lines, and to them thie qUestiOn as Ao irrigation is of the utmost im. pcirtance.

Louis Railway = MI , It is said that 50,000 people die atumalk in the United`States alone from this'dis In some sections of tha country one death in every, three is from Consumption. This eon be, and should be avoided; our people are too careless about an ordinary cough or, cold, and other symptoms" of throat `and hingt affections that lead to this disease. Youishould arrest it while it is in the germ. Two or three doses of Dr. Bosanko's cough and Lung Syrup will relieve an ordinary cough of cold. It does not dry up a cough like many preparations on the market and leave the disease behind it, but acts directly, on the throat and bronchial tubes, remOv-: ing all the phlegm and morbid matter that accumulates iii the throat and lungs. It allays all irritation, and renders the voice clear and distinct. Sold by C. B. Sorter's Ward. House Drug Storejuly27ly. Ili =ll IRRIGATING THIS',: PLAINS. COA;SUMItTIOS. • * - A .
