IIKAI.- stkus:a.m ;ii:ci:i,aus good and satisfactory in all departments OKIH-KS TO PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA Borne people never take books to tb country with them. They either feel no nf-eil for the utrenjrth or relaxatfon they miirht gain from reading, or they rely 11 1 ion chance for their mental pabulum. Few aro the readers who carry with them anything hut the lixhtent of Hum mer novel ixioks that can he thrown away without regret when finished Perhaps it in too much to axk that any one not a student should expend much en-ry in hot weather ujxm mental im provement. Yet it does Beem as though something better might bo read than the men ly ephemeral novelette. How many of the rising fCierution are really famil iar with the novels of Scott, of Dickens, of Tharkeray, of Cooer, of George Kliot, of Mi.58 Mulock, or with the charming long and fdiort stories by our own American authors? . There was a time' when the heavy binding and high cost of standards ren dered them undesirable books to read in a hammock, but the recent insne of the workH of many of the best English and American writers in paper covers does away with this objection. Good books, in good type, on good paper, at a price that practically puts them within the reach of every one. are to ! had on every hand. In purchasing an outfit for the sum mer vacation the hammock books ghouM no more be overlooked than the ham mock itself, but let both be of a kind that will stand wear. Trashy reading provokes a mental dyspepsia akin to the physical malaise produced by a diet of sweetmeats unaccompanied by substan tial. Such a course of treatment unfits either mind or body to do the winter's work, for which strength should be ac cumulated during a summer vacation. Harper's Bazar. The Ktlelweirirt iu London. It maj' be interesting to some to hear that the Edelweiss can be cultivated in London. L;it August a friend who lives near Belfast gnve me a small plant with one bloom, raised by himself from seed. The directions given with it were: "Leave it in the corner of your garden, it requires no social care." Unhappily, Loudon gardens are the hunting grounds for innumerable cats, so I placed my treasure, for such I deemed it, on tiie sill of my drawing room window, aspect southeast, and there, through the dismal sunless win dow, now buried deep in 6nov, now frozen hard, the AJpine stranger re mained, always reported dead by all who saw it, but toward the end of March life showed itself, and now it is a large healthy plant, with five lovely blooms, the admiration of all who see it. Surely, if this fair flower from the lovely mountain air of Switzerland can thrive in the smoky, sooty atmosphere of London, our climate is not so bad as some would say. Cor. London Stand ard. "Too Mana lledn Shoes." "I make from two to tree doll a' day," said an Italian bootblack with two chairs under the Elevated stairs. "Bisna no good. No good lasta yeah. Foa I maka tree, fo', fiva and sometimes 6ixa dolla' day." "What's the reason business is not so good now?" "Harda times, reda shoes and pata leatha shoes; too many menu in bisn.i.

The first batch of twenty policemeri have been examined under the order re cently issued by the mavor. Of the twenty men examined but one has re tained the same proportions throughout. This man is Officer Jim Eggleston, of the First district. He is exactly tlw same height as when he was examined for appointment under this administra tion, and weighs not an ounce more or less. Of the others one wa3 almost an inch taller than when he went on, but the rest had fallen away. One was found to be more than an inch shorter than when appointed. All were over weight except Officer Eggleston. Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette. Modification Kxtraortlinary. The hen of a farmer who lives near Tionesta and a wild pheasant have both been laying eggs in the same nest. After the nest was full with about an equal number of both kinds of eggs both fowls began to set. They occupied the nest at the same time and there was a constant struggle going on. The farmer conclud ed that neither could accomplish any thing at the rate they were quarreling, and he thought to solve the difficulty by removing the hen's eggs from the nest. This only served to make matters worse, and now both fowls are trying to hatch young pheasants. Philadelphia Times. A Youth fill Idea. A bright little fellow, hearing his grandfather talk of the almshouse, pon dered in his youthful and inquisitive mind what that might be. Aunt Alice, a j-oung lady of the household, was the other day made the confidant of his con clusions. "I know," said he, "the arms house s where all the girls wears dwesses 'thout any sleeves in 'em." Hartford Post. Four boys of Birdseye, Ind., found an old coat near the railroad and began tossing it about and beating each other with it. A bank note slipped from be neath one of the patches. The boys ripped the coat to pieces and it panned ont $1,711. The other morning while making re- i pairs to a residence in Monltbn township ' O., carpenters came tiion a nest of bats j in a window casing. They killed 250 of ; the animals, which ":. d iu size from an inch to seven inches in length. hOUM. " Mr. hik! Mr, Loren Trescott are keepers of the Gov.
