Adjectives.
V'ertain adjectives are reserved foi
men and others for women. A man i ?
never called "beautiful. " Along witli
"pretty" and "lovely" that adjective
has become the property ot women and
children alone. "Handsome" and the
weak "good looking" are the only tw <
adjectives of the kind common to eithet
sex. Even "belle" has no real mas
* uline correlative in English , since
"beau" came to signify something orhei
than personal looks. It is singdlai
that "handsome" should have becoiw
the word fo a strikingly good lookinc
person , since its literal meaning is
handy , dexterous. P.ut "pretty" like
wise comes from the Anglo-Saxon wort
meaning "sly. "

THE DOCTOR'S GIFT.
Fooil Worth Us AVfiKht in Gold.
We usually expect the doctor to put
us on some kind of penance and give
us bitter medicines.
A Penn. doctor brought a patient
something entirely different and the re
sults are truly interesting.
"Two year.ago. . " writes .this patient ,
"I w.is a frequent victim of acute indi-
sje.stion and biliousness , being allowed
ti ) eat very few things. One day our
f.innly doctor brouirht me a small pack
age , saying he had found something for
me to eat at last.
"He said it was a food called Grape-
Nuts and even as its irolden color might
sugjt'st. it was worth its weight in
gold. I was sick and tired , trying one
thing after another to noavail , , but at
J.i-r concented Jo try this new food.
"Well. it surpassed my doctor's fondest -
est anticipation and every day since
then I have blessed the good doctor and |
the Inventor of Cr.ipe-Nuts.
"I noticed improvement at once and
in i month's time my former spells of
ind .zcstion had disappeared. In two
nio.nhs i fdt like a new man. My

CHOOSING PROFESSIONS.
HO shall choose the profession , the father
or the boy ? It is an old dilemma , more
acutely practical in this country th.in else
where , because an occupation is not so
clearly indicated by environment , and bb-
caue the independent riirhts of youth are
more tolerantIv recognized. * * *
bo.\'s fancy is not a sjfe guide : perhaps the father's
judgment is no safer. At any rate , the latter , though hf *
be deli -Sent in insight , has more experience and a wider
knowledge of what is done by matured men. * * * Yet
; t is cruelty and injustice to force a young man into . ' )
proles.-ion which is distasteful because he his : not the
faculty. There is the rub. li" the parent were sure ol !
measuring the boy better tlu-n he can measure himself
there would be no doubt about the parent's duty to'di
rect the choice and to coripel. suitable training. The.
pirent's capacity to decide1 is not so general that the
tule can be general. The only safe general rule is that
the parent -'nouid in-ist on thorough preparation for
j-ome standard and leasonably remunerative oc/'upation.
If the Mm leaves ir later for another , that is the respon-
-ibility of his manhood and independent citizenship.

QUEER THIRST SATISFIERS.
i"i ! ! : - of the tu'tus < the Thirsty
Uosort Traveler.
All devices for allaying the discom
fort arising from the dryne-s of the
mucous membranes , such as carrying
bullets or pebbles in the .mouth , chew
ing grassfor a piece of rubber.-are
wholly futile in meeting the -serious
thirst problem. The relative humidity
often falls to . " > per cent in ihe south
western deserts , and in a temperature
of over a hundred degree- , the evapora
tion from a ve-sel of water standing in !
the open may be as much as an inch in
a day. The amount thrown off by the
skin is correspondingly great , and if
the loss is not made good , thirst en
sues , and ten hours' lack of water may
thicken the tongue so that speech is
impossible.
The Indian and the de-ert traveler
often seek" relief in the juices of plants
when water fails. The fruits of some
of the prickly pears are slightly juicy ;
and fronds of the same plant , or the
great trunks of the saguaro contain
miKli sap , but for the most part it is
bitter and while it would save life in
extremity , yet it is very unpleasant to
use. The barrel cactus , or bisnaga
( ochinocaetus ) . however , contains
within its spiny cylinder- fair sub
stitute for good water. To get at this
juice , one must be armed with a stout
knife , or an ax with which to decapi
tate the plant , which is done by cutting
away a section from the top. Next a
green stake is obtained froai some
shrub or free that is free from bitt ° r
substances , and with this or with the
a\ . the white pith of the interior is
pounded to a pulp and a cavity tuat
would hold two gallons i.formed. .
Squeezing the pulp between the hands
inti this cavity will irive from thre" to
six pints of a drinkable liquid that is
far from unpleasant , and is uener.f.ly
a few degrees cooler than air. Seoiit-
in-r Indians have loni : u > ed the bi-'iiaga
to save carrying a heavy supply of
water , and a drink may be obtained in
this manner by a skilled operator in
five to ten minutes. Outing Magazine.

WORK OF
The consideiation of t'pe Indian appro
priation bill and a speech by Senator
Rood Smoot of I'tah on the currency bill
consumed nearl\ the entiiv rime in the
Senate Friday. The Indian bill was pass
ed. The Senate at . :1l ! p. in. adjourned
until Monday. The House rejected by > 'J
to ( iO an amendment by Mr. Foster ( Illi
nois ) to the army bill appropriating .Sl-
000.000 for joint maneuvers of the militia
organizations and the regular troops.
Without a dissenting voice the House by
special rule restored the provisions to in-
ciease tlie paj of non- . oni"ssioned : olli-
cers and men and to prohibit the private
employment of army musicians for pay.
both of which went out on points of order.
The Senate was not in session Satur
day. A veiled charge v.as made by Mr.
Mann of Illinois in the House during the
consideration of the annj appropriation
bill that some government otncial or em
ploye had yielded to the influentc of a
land syndicate with the view to selling to
the sovornincut a tiact near the city for
a target range. An appropriation of
$ l' . i0.doo for U.OOO ac-es was provided for.
which Mr. Mann denounced a > - far beyond
its value. He at once aroused the ire of
Mr. Youns of Michigan , who. sprin in to
the defense of th l committee on military
affairs , indignantly denied that am mem
ber of it had been approached by any one
but the Secretary of War or his subordi
nates. The provision was stricken out
on a point of order. Th" army appropria
tion bill uas passed , the total amount
carried by it being i > S t,7. > 7. . ( H' .
In the Senate * Monday Senator William
Alden Smith of Michigan spoke against
the railroad bond feature of the Aldrich
currency bill. Most of the day was de
voted to the passage of bills on the cal
endar which are not of general import
ance. A resolution was passed bv the
Ilonso anthori/.in ; : the immigration com
mittee to investigate chameof peonage
in certain States. Mr. Clark of Florida
denounced Assistant Attorney ( Jcneral
IJus-ell. in connection with certain peon
age prosecutions in Florida and referred
sarcastically to Attorney ( Jeneral P.ona-
parte. There followed a lively discus
sion over a bill to deport , after the -erv-
ing of their sentence , all aliens convicted
! of felony. The measure was defeated.
I Four hundred pension bills and a tew
other private bills were passed , and some
lime was -pent in considering the po-of-
fifo appropriation bill. Mr. Hepburn of
Iowa introduced a bill imposing a tax of
.10 cents per hundred shareon sales of
stock or agreements to sell.
In the Senate Tuesday speocho- tin
pending cnripncj bill were made bv Senators
"
ators McCumber "of North Dakota .ind
Xewland- Nevada. The Senate paed
a resolution offered by Senator Tillman
callini : on the Attorney ( Jeneral for all
information concornini : court proceeding

ber ot bills of minor importance were
passed. The charge that he raihoad--
of the countrv carr.vins : mails had robbed
the people of $70.000.000 was made by
Mr. Lloyd of Mi otiii. He declared that
the new system of weighing mail- was an
admi ion of the I'ostma-tor ( Jeneral h ,
the weighing in the pa-t twenty-seven
years had been fraudulent. He called for
an investigation of the Postoflico De
partment , and Mr. Wanser of Pen-isviva-
nia. chairman of the committee to con
trol the expenses of that department ,
promised that an inquiry would be made.
Current y legislation was made the sub
ject of consideration in the Senate Wed
nesday. Senator Hepburn opposed the
Aldrich bill and Senator Hopkins spoke
in support of the bill. Senator Ahh : h
announced that lie honed to have a vote
on the measme the ni Wednesday. The
postoffico appropriation bill technically
was under con-iderarion in the House ,
but the discussion , under liccn-e of ; on-
eral debate , took a wide ninirf. Specula
tion in cotton , finance , the tariff and a
number of miscellaneous matters in turn
occupied the whole time of the session.
Mr. Simrl ennessoe. "poke in favor of
the P.nrleson bill to abolish dealings in
cotton futuies ; Mes-rs. I'naney of In
diana and Lindberg of Minnesota talked
on the financial qm-tion. Mr. Hitch
cock of Nebraska pleaded for the placing
on the fiee list of wood pulp and print
paper.
Immediately aft r the opening pra\er
the Senate TlmrMlay morning adjourned
out of respect of the memory of the late
Senator Proctor of Vermont , who died
the previous day. Without transacting
any business the House adjourned out of
to the memory of Senator Procior.
