BV MARK A piece of Action fiction with n big F by Mark Twain the well known humorist, which came out la a late Cosmopolitan, has attracted no little atteutiou, not only for the humor of which it is full, but for the undoubted scientific fact to which it calls attention. It is trne that we civilized Americans eat far too much, and equally true that no small amouut of our disease is due to that habit. This theme the great humorist has clothed in the following attractive lorra: This establishment's name is Hoch bergbaus. It is in Bohemia, a short day's journey from Vienna, and being In the Austrian empire, is, of course. health resort. All unhealthy peo ple ought to domicile themselves in Vienna, and use that as a base for making flights, from time to time, to the outlying resorts, according to need. A flight to Marienbad to got rid of fnt; a flight to Carlsbnd to get rid of rheumatism; a flight to Kalten leutgeben to take the water cure, and get rid of the rest of the diseases. It is all bo hnndy. Von can stand in Vienna and toss a biscuit into Kal lenleutgeben, with a twelve-inch gun. Yon can run out thither at any time of the day; yon can go by the phe nomenally slow trains, and yet inside of an hour you have exchangod the glare and swelter of the city for the wooded hills, and shady forest paths and soft cool airs, and the musio of the birds, and the repose and peace of paradise. There are abundance of Health resorts, as I have said. Among them thin place Hochbcrghaus. It stands solitary on the top of a densely wooded mountain and is a building of great size. It is called the Appetite Anstallt, and people who have lost their appetites come here to get them restored. When I arrived, I was taken by Professor Haimberger to his consulting room and questioned: "It is sis o'clock. When did you at last?" "At noon." "What did yon eat?" "Next to nothiug." "What was on the table?" "The usual things." "Chops, chicken, vegetables, and BO on?" "Yes; but don't mention then I can't bear it." "Are you tired of them?" "Oh, utterly. I wish I might never hear of them again." "The mere sight of food offends yon, does it?" "More, it revolts me." . The doctor considered awhile, then got out a long menn and ran his eye alowly down it. "I think," saul he, "that what you need to eat is but here, choose for yourself." I glanced at the list and my stomach threw a bnudspring. Of all the bar barous layouts that were ever con trived, this was the most atrocious. At the top stood "tough, underdone, overdue tripe, garnished with garlio;" &alf way down the bill stood "young cat; old cat; scrambled cat;" at the bottom stood "sailor boots, softened with tallow served raw." The wide Intervals of the bill - were packed with dishes calculated to insult a can nibal. I said: "Doctor, it is not fair to joke over suoh a serious case as mine. I came here to get an appetite not to throw Way the remnant that's left." He said gravely: "I am not joking; Why should I joke?" "But I can't eat these horrors." "Why not?" He said it with a naivete that was admirable, whether it was real or as sumed. "Why not? Because why, doc tor, for months I have seldom been able to endnre anything more sub stantial than omelettes aud custards. These unspeakable dishes of yours "Oh, yon will come to like them. They are very good. And yon must ' eat them. It is the rule of the place and is ttriot, I cannot permit any de ' parture from it " I said, siniliug: "Well, then, doo tor, you will have to permit the de parture of the patient. I am going." He looked hurt, and said in a way which changed the aspect of thiugs: "I am sure yon would not do me that injustioe. I accepted you in good faith you will not shame that oin fidenoe. This appetite oura is my whole living. If you should go forth from it with the sort of appetite which you now have.it could become known, aud you oou see yourself that people would say my onre failed in your case and heuue con fail iu other cuses. You will uot go; you will not do me this hurt." I apologized aud said I would stay. The professor handed me that odi ous ineun. . "Choose -or will yoa have it later?" Tat all thy splendors but presage The desolation near; Tor Nature, tliough the did engago Vou artist of the year, Will aend a rude and vandal band Ere the new year Is born, Whose ruthless ravage through the land Will blast what you adorn. Harsher than Bummer's seems thy fnte For her thou dlilst caress, And showed her as she lingered late The utmost tenderness. To thee, when summoned hence to leave. No kindness will bo fhowni For heartless Winter cannot prleve For all thv splendor down. Aaron Kingsbury lu the Boston Evening Transcript. 1 TWAIK. "Oh, dear tne, show me to my room; I forgot your hard rule." "Wait just a moment before yon Anally decide There is another rule. If yoa choose now, the order will bo filled at once; but if you wait, yon will have to await my pleasure. You cnunot get a dish from that entire bill until I consent." "All right. Show me to my room and send the oook to bed; there is not going to be any hurry." The professor took me np one flight of stairs and showed me into a most inviting and comfortable apartment consisting of parlor, bedchamber and bathroom. In the parlor were many shelves filled with books. The pro fessor said he would now leave me to myself and added: "Hmoke and read as much as yon please, drink all the water you like. Whon you get hungry, ring and give your order, and I will decide whether it shall be Ailed or not. Yours is a stubborn, bad case, and thorefore I shall be gratified if yon will restrain yourself and skip down to No. 15 and begin with that." Then he loft me and I began to un dress, for I was dog-tired aud very sleepy. I slept 15 hours and woke up finely refreshed at 10 the next morn ing. Vienna coffee! It was the first thing I thought of that unapproach able luxury that sumptuous coffee house coffee, compared with which all other European coffee, and all Ameri can hotel coffee is mere fluid poverty. I rang and ordered it; also Vienna bread, that delicious invention. The servant spoke through the wicket in door and said but you know what he said. He referred me to the bill of fare. I allowed him to go I had no further use for him. After the bath I dressed and started for a walk, and got as far as the door. It was locked ou the outside. I rang and the servant came and explained that it was another rule. The seoln sion of the patient was required until after the first meal. I had not been particularly anxious to get out before; but it was different now. Being locked in makes a person wishful to got out. I soon began to find it difficult to put in the time. At 2 o'clock I had been 20 hours withont food. I had been growing hungry for some time; I rec ognized that I was not only hungry, now, but hungry with a strong adjeo tive in front of it. Yet I was uot hni gry enough to face the bill of fare. I must put in the time somehow. I would read and smoke. I did it; h ur by hour. The books were all of one breed shipwrecks; people lost in deserts; people shnt np iu caved-in mines; peo ple starviug in besieged cities. I read about all the revolting dishes that ever famished men stayed their hunger with. During the first honrs these things nauseated me; hours followed in which they did not so affect me; still other honrs followed in which I found myself smacking my lips over some tolerably infernal mossos. When I had been without food 45 honrs I ran eagerly to the bell and ordered the seoond dish on the bill, which was a sort of dumplings containing a com post made of caviar and tar. It was refused. During the next 15 honrs I visited the bell every now and then and ordered a dish that was further down the list. Always a re fusal. But I was conquering preju dice after prejudice, right along; I was making sure progress; I was creeping np on No. 15 with deadly certainty, and my heart beat faster and faster, my hopes rose higher and higher. At last when food had not passed my lips for 60 hours, viotory was mine and I ordered No. 15: "Soft-boiled spring ohicken in the egg; six dozen, hot and fragrant." In 15 minutes it was there and the doctor aloug with it, rubbing his hands with joy. He said with great exoitement: "It's a cure, it's a oure! I knew I could do it. Dear sir, my grand sys tem never fails never. You've got your appetite back you know you have; say it aud make me happy." "Briug on your carrion I can eat anything iu the bill." "Oh, this is noble, this is splendid but I knew I could do it, the system never fails. How are the birds?" ""Never was anything so dolicioua in the world; aud yet, as a rule, I don't care for game. But don't inter rupt me, don't I can't spare my mouth, I really cau't." Then the doctor said: "The cure is perfect. There is, no more doubt or danger. Let the poul try alone; I can trust yon with a beef steak now." The beefsteak came as much as a basketful of it with potatoes and Vienna bread and coffee; aud I ate a meal theu that wai worth all the cost ly preparation I had made for it. And dripped tears of gratitude into the gravy all the time gratitude to the doctor (or putting a little common sense In me when I had been empty of it so many, many, years." In a second chapter the writer tolls how Dr. Haimberger stumbled across the idea of his onre through a ship wreck which stimnlated the once fail iug appetites of the ship's passengers. POPULAR INTEREST IN DEWEY. Of Bnrh a Nature That Any of Is Likely to lie Affected. A retired bnslnessman of Cleveland, who has a reputation among people who know him for his kinduess of heart, was filled with distress the other afternoon when he was ap proached by the five-year-old son of one of the neighbors. The little fel low was crying bitterly, aud the kind hearted man lost no time in making inquiries as to the nature of the child's troubles. , "Come," he said, pattiug the boy's head, "tell me all about it. Who hurt you?" "N-n-nobody didn't hit-hurt me," the sufferer sobbed, "b-b-bnt Dewey's dead, boo-hoo-hoo-boo!" Dewey dead! Great heavens I That's terrible. Where's the newsboy? Dear, dear, dear, dear. I'm eorry to hear that!" And forgetting all about the dis tress of the child he rushed into the house, exclaiming to his wife: "Mamma, Dewey's deod!" "Mercy on us I" the lady replied, "where did you hear that?" "Little Francis Parker just told me. Poor child, he's crying as if his heart will break. I suppose his father has just brought (he news home from down town. I wish the boys would hurry and get out this way with their papers. By George, this makes me feel blue! There's been some treach ery yon mark my words! Dewey is the victim of foul play. Now I'm for wiping the whole darned Spanish race off the face of the earth. Nothiug short of that will atone for our loss!" By this time the gentlemnu had got to walking around iu a circle, aud his wife felt it her duty to do something to keep him from breaking down. "Why don't you go over to the Par kers," she said, "and Aud out about it? There may be some mistake. I do hope it isn't trne." "Yes, I hope bo too," he replied, mechanically, taking his hat as she handed it to him, "but I'm afraid it is. I've had a kind of premonition from the first that something was go ing to happen to Dewey. This com pletely upsets me. It's just as bad as if I'd lost a member of my own faini- iy." Then he went over to the Parkers, little Francis haviug,in the meantime, returned home. Mrs. Parker aud her daughter Grace were sitting on the porch making things out of fluffy lace and linen. "Well," the kind hearted man said, "it's too bad about Dewey, isn't it?" "Yes," Mrs. Parker answered, "we feel real bad about him. We had really become attached to him." "How aud when did it happen?" the gentleman asked, as he took his chair that had been pushed forward by Miss Grace. "He died this afternoon. I guess he must have caught cold. The girl had the hose out yesterday and sprin kled on him, aud I think that started it." The man with the kind heart sat there, looking dumbly at the two ladies for about a minute, after which he asked: "What do yon mean?" "Why," said Mrs. Parker, "the little chicken that our milkman brought iu from the country to Francis. Yon never saw it, did you? .It was a dear little thing. Franois called it Dewey, in honor of the hero of .Manila. But," she sighed, "it's dead, and Francis has been crying all the afternoon." The kind-hearted man went home shortly after that, and iu answer to his wife's anxious look morely said: "'Nother fake." QUAINT AND CURIOUS. Blind men outnumber blind women by two to one.

A charming woman who visits at Marl borough House has quite won little Edward's heart. At first the little prince was some what shy wifh her, but as their ac quaintanceship progressed he relaxed in his reserve. When she had suc ceeded lu winning his confidence the little boy was most anxious to make himself agreeable. One day he called ber aside very confidentially.

Duelling between men has long gone out of fashiou in England, and it is left to nations and lower animnls to settle their differences by an appeal to arms. In Kow gardens, in the presence of a considerable number of spectators, an affair of honor was settled between a pelican and a duck. The birds had had words together, so to speak, and the pelican determined that the next best thing to making the duck eat his words was to eat the duck. So, .after a little thrust and parry on the water, he made for the smaller bird ond snapped it into bis pouch. Theu a battle-royal begau in side the pouch ot the pelicnu. The duck struggled, kicked, quacked, and occasionally maunged to get a leg or a wing outside, while his captor threw his beak high iu the air, then dipped it into the water and kept it there, as if trying to suffocate or drown its enemy. From the look of the agitated pouch iteemod as if the contest was by no means one-sided, but that the pelican was having rather a rough time. At lust the duok got his head and one wing out, aud then, with a magnificent effort, managed to get en tirely free. Once again on the water the duck declined further combat and fled, while the pelican remained, look ing ns if honor was thoroughly satis fied. London Telegraph. A Ml mle Ken. To start an aquarium sounds a rather formidable undertaking from a finan cial standpoint, Bnys a writer in Har per's Bound Table, yot it costs noth ing to collect the treasures of the sea, aud once intelligently collected months of pleasure are secured. The expen sive glass globes called aquariums are not necessary, nor even desirable. A top will live in a bottle, and a sea garden grow iu a preserve jor. In stead, substitute a small, new tub, uupainted inside, or a gluss box made of window panes set in a framework of wood and cement. Into this tank put two inches of well-washed se:t Bund, avoiding oil worms aud Hons, which would die aud poison the water. This layer of sand is for the benefit of the crabs and burrowing sunils. Then, with small, clean stones, free from all vegetable growth, and a little cement, build a mimio arcade in the centre of the tauk, which will provide shade, without which 'your sleepless fish will soon die. Little lumps of cement, stuck irregularly about the sides of the tub, afford root room for weed, and so vary its monotony. Having preparod the tank, fill it with deep sea water, .to guard against the possible impurities of the shore. As this water evaporates renew with fresh water, since the original salt never evaporates. The tank niUBt be filaced where it will have plenty of ight and air, while guarded against heat and dust. Sunlight is necessary for the plant life of the aquarium, but it the water ever becomes tepid the fish will die. Now deposit in the tank half a dozen stones or shells, to which are attached the finer varieties of growing weed, as sea lettuce and ulvae. It is well to first wash these carefully, lest deoayed matter lurk in the fronds. The Tricks of a Pet Crow. Of all the pets I ever had, which were many, I never found one so knowing or so full of mischief as a pet crow, which was giveu me when I was a girl of twelve. When he came to me he had been slightly wounded in one wiug, which at first disabled him, but from which he soon fully recovered. At first he occupied a cage made by nailing some slats across the open end of a small box, and this box always remained his headquarters. A hand ful ot com aud a dish of water was his duily ration. When be became snill cleutly tame to be trusted to go aud come as he pleased, he undoubtedly foraged for such tidbits as orows are said to be fond of. Jim Crow (so named) never seemed to car for tba society at other crows, otherwise) it may bare been that his black brethren did not care to associate with one cowardty enongh to enbmit to cap tivity; at all events, they were never seen together. Jim's boon companion was a large honse dog. When the dog waa told to go after the cows, which were pastured at least a quarter of a mile away, Jim Crow always went with him, flying slowly a couple of feet above the dog's back, and fre quently riding homeward on the back of a cow. Some young men were at work at enrpeutry that summer on my father's barn, who nover tired 'ot teaching Jim tricks, and they often declared if Jim's tongue was only split he could be taught to speak like a parrot. Jim's powors of imitation were very amusing ; if one bowed to him, he usually returned the compliment in a polite manner. At other times he would scratch in the earth and call like a hon who was scratching for a brood of chickens, imitating every motion as well as the hen's voice, I have seen him pick np pebbles and drop them in the bung holes of nu empty barrel just for the report the pebbles made, and, when tired of this mischief, he would put both legs into the bnng hole and whirl round and round, as if his legs were an auger boring a hole, in imitation of the car penters who frequently had Jim as a spectator while working in this line of business. Bnt Jim's proclivities for mischief brought him into dis repute with our own family as well as our neighbors. A washing spread out on the bleaching yard was sure to be visited by Jim, who would fly off to a mud puddle or the cow yard, and when his feet were fully saturated with filth he would walk over the clothes until his footprints resembled Egyp tian hieroglyphics. This trick cost him his life, for he was undoubtedly shot by a neighbor. Country Gentle man. Dewey's Chicken. "Why didn't they name me Trouble? "But no; here I am a yellow puppy and they call me Dewey. Of course with that name you'd naturally thiuk I would be expected to show a very warlike disposition, so I bul k furiously at passing teams, make brave dashes at women's silken skirts and gny colored ribbons, and the other dny I made a charge on the chickeus that was grand." A very melancholy looking little yellow dog crouched in the darkest corner of the cavernous space under the front steps of the great house. "It seems as though I were brought into the world for the sole purpose of being a nuisance." The little dog was scared and out of sorts genorully there was no doubt about it, and he had good reason for his frame of mind, as the following soliloquy will show: "I wus making the fentbors fly and the chickeus ily when swish bang came a broom after me with nearly as much force as a cannon ball. And a voice said, 'Oh, you good-for-nothing dogl' "Now what am I to do? If they wanted a quiet, sober little dog of me why didn't they call me Flossie or Fido or Borne other soft-sounding name? "Bnt to call me Dewey and then expect me to do nothing rough, why, it's porfectly absurd. "Yesterday I was having such a nice, quiet time, and I thought no one could possibly object to my innocent amusoment. After breakfast I walked into the parlor just to see if I couldn't find something to do. On the oouch there was a white object with black feuthers sticking out of it. " 'Chickeus!' I growled under my breath, but straightway thought, 'No, Dew'ey, yon mustn't chase chickens,' so I dropped down on the floor with a sigh and began watching the object. Well, it didn't move, and the more I looked at it the more I thought it would do no harm to piny with it. So I jumped up aud draggod it under the couch, and the fun I had with that thing would have mado you laugh. I pulled the feuthers out. I chewed and ripped great bunches of soft gauzy stuff off of it, and jiiBt as I was making the feathers fly to the right and to the loft Mr. Edwin McArthur, my master, came into the room. "He didu't say a word! "He picked me np, and I really be lieve if I wasn't a born soldier and didn't bear a soldier's name I wouldn't be telliug this story today. . "Mr. Edwin McArthur onght to have gone to war, for if he could whip Spaniards the way he can whip dogs he would be a wonder. "When ladies call on mistress now she shows them the object I thought looked like a chioken, and they give little screams and say, 'Ob.Sara, your new Paris hat! Cau it be repaired?' "They never ask if Dewey can be repaired. "I know I'm a good-for-nothing dog, bnt I believe that mistress loves me after all, for last night she took me in her arms and said: 'Dewey, yon cunning thiug, I forgive you for ruin ing my Paris hat, you showed suoh good taste in selecting mine when Cousin Nell's lay right beside it. I always told her she had no more taste than a dog as far as hats wore con cerned.' "Listen to that, now, and I thought it was a chicken," Chicago lteooid.

There are few locations In which bees will not do well, bnt there are locations thst are much better than others, and this is worthy of notioe in locating. Many persons are situated in the midst of excellont bee pasturage, where bees would prove extremely profitable if they wontd adopt them. There are hundreds of acres of alfalfa clover in many parts of the West that no bees have ever seen. Tons of honey might be the result if enoughs bees were in reach of it to seenro the nectar, which of oourse is a total loss otherwise. Not only this, but the presenoeof bees to pollenize the blossoms of all seed plants, and also all fruit bearing trees and shrubs, would well pay all expenses oi me same, even n mey uui not store a pound of honey. There is not a scientific fruit grower 'or seedsman of the present time who understands this, but is profiting by the experi ment. Farm, Field and Fireside. Fe.ll Trunin. -' - While the genernl practice is to clo the main pruning of trees in the spring, ranch of the work can be done to the best advantage in the early fall, when it is possible to see just where the tree is making the growth that is valueless. This fall pruning is especially valu able for young trees, which must be direoted in the form and shape desired at an early age. . It is not meant that any heavy pruning should be done in the fall, but mainly a pinching back of the young sprouts as they grow, re moving the bnda on others and gradu ally shaping the tree aud regulating -the supply of the fruit on those that come into bearing for the first time. The growth of the young tree should first be upward, then outward, and the removal or shortening of any lat eral orancnes mat snow a tendency to shoot out beyond all the others will prevent sopping of the tree's vitality.

Considerable lime is used on farm lands, and usually to great advantage, but the general opinion is that it may be used freely in pltce of fertilizers. This is a mistake, for, strictly speak ing, lime has no valne as a fertilizer. . Its nse is pnrely and simply to set loose and make available for plant food fertility already in the soil. Its valne will be most noticeable on heavy, rather moist lands, usually rich in nitrogen, but which requires a loosen ing power to make it available as plant food, and lime does this work better than anything that can be applied. Lime neutralizes the free aoids and sweetens the soil. It hastens the de composition of organio matter so large ly found in the soils desoribed, and mnkes it available as plant food, be sides rendering suoh soils more porous and open.

Beyond this there is nothing but proper treat ment and feeding for the cows and wise handling of the butter. Dairy cows should be stabled at night and on oold and stormy days, with plenty of bedjing for warmth and cleanli ness, A feed of ten pounds of clover hay and ten pounds o( shredded corn stalks, with what nnshredded stalks they will eat clean from the rack, is enough food for the average oow per day. A daily feed of grain consisting ot five pounds of wheat bran and five pounds of oorn and cob meal ground fine, will bring good results. Tho quantity of food is not arbitrary, as soma cows will require more and some less. Water twioe a day. With the milk use a separator, a tester and scales, and dispose of, as unprofitable, every cow that does not oome np to the standard under these tests. Raise the heifer oalfs to iuorease the hbrd. Pack the butter product carefully and have it ot a quality that will command attention iu the market. Mark it so that those who buy may know where it oomes from and they will soon get in the habit ot asking for it. Then the dairy will be found a most profit able part ot the farm.
