He is always himself interested, and therefore, when ho writes, he is always interesting, lie looks with his own eyes, and he is such an experienced observer that at a glance he sees all that is before him, and that, of course, includes a great deal which the casual or careless specta tor misses entirely. His experiences of life and of tho world have in no particu lar rubbed off his freshness, and there is never any indication in any of his ar ticles that he was tired of tho subject ' before he had finished with it. This characteristic is strengthened by n rule which always guided him in his literary work, Tho rule ho applies was taken from Mr. Dana's advice to a man who wanted to become an orator, "Never talk unless you have got something to say, and never say anything unless you uciievo wnat you are saying. Mr. Ralph has been a frequent con tributor to all tho great magazines, and to this work he brings those qualities which have made him pro-eminent as a reporter. His vacations he spends in travel at home or abroad, ami ho never falls on these trips to gather material of which he makes delightful use. He is a hunter and a fisherman, and his summer home at Asbury Park is hung with trophies and mementos of wild game and savage tribes. When ho be gan writing on Tho Graphic some seven teen years ago he received a salary of twelve dollars a week; now. taking ono year with another, ho makes iJS.OOU a year. This seems a largo and gratifying Increase, but had he achieved In anv other profession a llko degreo of success ho would have an Income threo or four times as great. In maimer ho is sincere, genial and hearty, and his eyes twinkle with humor and friendliness. J. G. S. Colonel John A, Cockerlll Described. Colonel John A. Cockerlll is a line specimen of manhood. Ho is athletic, well built, erect, carries himself in a boldier'y fashion, and has, as ono of his teuiinlnu admirers puts it, "just the back for a dreos coat." He is dark, with Hashing black eyes and regular features. His manner is quick, a bit brusque, but at the same time kindly. Ho is an in defatigable worker and takes no rest. According to nn Australian pajwr 500 Chinamen make tin excellent living in Sydney as professional gamblers, their gains being bo considerable that they tiro able regular.ly to .remit largo sums to China.

How to Keep the Plnger Nuil In Order. It is a very bad habit to scrape to finger nails either on the out or ins-ide with tho blade of u knife. When there is dirt under the nails It should be re moved with the nails of the other hand, with an Ivory nail cleaner or even an or dinary wooden toothpick. But never use a steel knife blade. It breaks tho skin of the nail, and then dirt catches and adheres despite every effort. If the nails bo left hard and tho skin undisturbed an ordinary washing of tho hands will clean them thoroughly. Don't bother with manicures. They do more harm than good, for they destroy tho enamel of the mills. In trimming tho nails, whether with knife or ecissors, be sure that the instrument is sharp, so that it will make a clean cut. Do not trim down into the quick, and never under any circum stance bite the nails. Children contract ing this habit should be broken of it, even though frequent applications of the rod bo necessary. If you get in the habit of staining your nails with ink, get a shallow Inkotaiid or see that the ono in use has only a small quantity of ink in it. How to Ilme In Ktery Itoom Pliiee for Seriii. A scraphasket is not needed in each room, but some place where tiny order destroyers, such as bits of lint, ravel iugs limo or paper can bo dropped out of sight, is worth having. , Those in the chambers can also be used for hair combings. Take small boxes of any shape, say stocking or soap boxes, re move the'edge that goes around the lid, and cover all the ret of tho box and lid with colored muslin, over which dotted swiss is to be placed. Frills of narrow lace are put around tho bottom nnd the lid, the latter being sewed on at one side and furuMied with a loop to lift it by.

Salt and mustard are the great reliance for many reason-,, They are found in i everv hotwt; they can be given instant ly; they pioduce vomiting quicker than other substances In common use, and the danger of overdoing Is practically nothing. Another reason Is that they are almost equally good whether the poiron be a narcotic (opium, laudanum, etc.) or like urceiiic or strychnine. Tho main object in either case is to get as .much of it as po-uililo out nf th stomac li at once. After thorough vomiting is produced pour in hot, strong collee for an opiate or two or three whites of raw eggs for acid poisons. Raw eggs and hot coffee feuit a greater number of jxil sons than any other articles in common use. -AND- VITRIFIED PAYERS J. A. BUGKSTAFF S. E.
