Last night in counting out the tick ct3 in tho Third ward it was found that some one bad made a mistake and voted a bill he had received from ono or our merchants for $0.70, and thj judges say they won't tell who it was if he will ju;.t call around and set the apples up.

One Bouquet a Day. Somebody once said "he didn't mind a plain dinner if there wcro roses on the table." He waa right. A Calla in bloom will make the barest room beautiful. Flower help us over many rough places in lifa. There should be plants in every tunny window; theru should be flower, or, at leaat, something fresh and green on the table three times a day every day in the year. Leave out the cake, but have some flowers. Bolter a rose bud before the guest's plate tham a AVelsh rarebit or the richest gravy better or all concerned. Did you ever take some flowers to a sick room or boepit.il ? It' the greatest pleasure ever invented. Try it and see. Here, a boy reading this says, "Ob, that's for girls !'' Wait a little, my man, and we shall see you spending sill 3'our spare change for button-hole bou quets and sending roses to your friend on her birthday. Then you'll wish you knew all about it. Then you'll wisli you knew what in the world she ment when she said she preferred Catherine Afermet to Jacks. -You may wish you were not such a Jack: yourself not to know tne difference. Of all the flowers in the werkl those we raise ourselves are the most beautiful A spray of mignonette from your own garden, or a truss of geranium from the old raisin-box in the kitchen window are worth rue-re than the finest Sltrmets at a dollar a bud.

" When these chefs have a night off they never dine in their own place, but seem to take great delight in sampling tho food of their rivals. 1 have seen Fred Ilemniprlo in Delmonico's with all the bead waiters Mutter ing anxiously about bim whilo ho critk-nlly examined tho menu, and no millionaire was as carefully served as he.

They themselves adjure most of the sauces and gravies with which they stimulates the jaded palates of the public and, looking carefully over the bill, pick out just those dishes w hich require, through their simplicity, perfect cooking to mako them palatable. Brooklyn Euglo. An Incompetent Railroad Engineer. The danger of running on an engino han dled by an incompetent engineer or a man who has remained at some other business long enough to get rusty is not fully under stood by tho traveling world. 1 had an ex perience of that kind that drove me oil the road and into more pleasant lines of labor. The Iowa legislature passed a law in 1877 holding all railroad? responsible in, heavy amounts for loss of lifo or injuries incurred in their service, aud to offset the liability tho railroad addressed a circular to all employes asking them to relinquish their claims. One morning I had fired up as usual, and run tho cugiue around to await the freight which we were to take west from JJurlington. Before the hour an agent stepped up and asked tho engineer to sign the agreement. He refused and was discharged on the spot. A new man was put in the cab. Ho had an engineer's license, and everything looked straight, so far as papers went. During the talk my fires bad run down, so I filled in coal until steam was hissing out of the safety valve, and then 1 opened the furnace door. Having taken our train, an hour later we were spinning along nicely when I turned to feed tho fire. Throwing open the door 1 ob served tho crown sheet and rivets showing through tho fire box, and looked up at the gauge only to find that wo were running with o dry boiler. 1 yelled to my partner, and be started out on the running board with a hammer in one hand. Tho pump had stopped working. Uhe new man struck tho metal gently to loosen the plunger. That's all I saw. l started over tho coal in tho tender, and, climbing up on tho side of the first car, was not long in putting twelve or fifteen cars between me and that engine. Reaching the caboose and sitting on the cupola, I waited for tho explosion. If that fool with his ham mer had succeeded in starting that pump he would have gone into eternity the nest second, for tho boilor was at a white heat. I wasn't in a suicidal frame of mind, and that's why I lit out. But tho old adage about fools and children proved true, for that engineer had to stop, draw the tire and wait for a relief engine. VTa had only run fifteen miles, but the damage in half au hour took three months to repair. Globe-Democrat Inter view. The Ranchman's Commissary Department. A ranchman's lifo is certainly n very pleas ant one, albeit generally varied with plenty of hardship and anxiety. Although occa sionally ho passes days of severe toil for example, if ho goes on tho round up he works as hard as any of his men yet he no longer has to undergo the monotonous drudgery at tendant upon tbe tasks of the cowboy or of tho apprentice in tho business. Ilia fare is simple; but, if he chooses, it is good enough. Many ranches are provided with nothing at all but salt pork, canned goods, and bread ; indeed, it is a curious fact that in traveling through this cow country it is often impos sible to get any milk or butter; but this is only because the owners or managers are too lazy to take enough trouble to insure their own comfort. We ourselves always keep up tv.o or three cows, choosing such as are nat urally tame, and so we invariably have plenty of milk and, when there is time for churning. a good deal of butter. We also keep hens, which, in -spite of the damaging inroads of hawks, bob cats and foxes, supply US with eggs, and in time of need, when our rifles have failed to keep us in game, with stewed, roast or fried chicken, also. From our garden we get potatoes, and unless drought, frost or grasshoppers inter fere (which they do about every second year) Other vegetables as well. For fresh meat we depend chiefly upon our prowess as hunters. Theadore Roosevelt in The Century. Something in a Name. I .knew a man who spent years and a for tune in getting up a new decoction of bit ters. At last be had it in shape to sell it. Ha mado about a million bottles of it, and had it advertised under a beautiful Greek name, which be had made up out of the dictionary specially to attract attention. And when he advertised it it sounded so like some chemi cal poison that he couldn't gat anybody to believe it was a simple "bitters." He failed. A name is all a patent medicine wants. A patent medicine never makes itself popular from its merits. You've got to persuada people it will cure them before they tak'a it, and then it does. The name, is everything practically.
