I have also picked = out a number of fancy cups and saucers—perfoct beauties—in fact Homer has the nlcest line of those I've seen anywhere. Beautiful lamps— they make a fine present-—and then there are more novelties than [ can begin to name, | admired a8 much as anything some of hls Amberina glassware. It is lovely, and for the little folks you ought to see those china dolls, and little toy tea sets, and all sorts of dainty dishes to make the young hearts happy. Oh, yes, Homer's one of my pet places.” Santa, turning over the es of his note-book, remarked: I'lL tell you a place your Bek readers ought to visit, That is was on his note book No. 23 Main street. one GRANDY at No. 21 Main street. You know them well a3 druggists, but they have some olegant holiday goods, which come well in their line. Some of the handsomest gooda 1've saon auywhere, 1 found thero, and at such reatonable prices, They have some odor cases that are fit for a queen, and tollet seta that would grace any houdoir. Thoy have some charming and novel toilet mirrors, and some collar and cuff boxes—these are always nice, and they are in now styles now. Then the line of perfumes carrled by them ia extra, Yes, Grandy & Co. are woll stocked for the holidays.” “But T'll tell you what I'm going to do this year. You'll think it strange, per- haps, but I'm going to get some of DRS. JUDD AND SMITH'S E RIC BELTS to give to some of my friends, who are not in extra good health. I have heard so much about the wonderful cures and helps accomplished by these electrlc belts, and seen several instances myself, that I am going to distribute a number this year myself. There I8 no way to make men and women happier than to relieve their sufferings. I have the guarantee that they abaolutely cure all kidney and liver complaints, Bright's disease, rheumatism, neuralgia, dyspepsia, nervousness, etc. They are unlike most of these belts that are advertised as boing electric, and have no electricity at all, There is the regu- lar lightning in these belts, and they do really accomplish wonders. All that ie needed is a test, and the testimonials that Drs, Judd & Smith have, from parties, too, that are well known, would fill a book. Here is just a sample of the way the orders come in: Bentry, Mo., December 11, 1884, Mess. Judd & Smith:—Gentlemen: What is_the price to dealers for your belts? We have had numerous calls for them and they ate highly spoken of by those that have used them. Very truly yours AND COMPANY, FurLer & NEWBURN, Doaalers in Drugs, Patent medicines etc. They are having about all they can do to manufacture them fast enough. toll you Mr. Bee man, thatif you have any friend who is sullaring send him one of those belts and he will thank you to his dying day.” The card of PEREGOY AND MOORE, No. 419 Broadway, just then dropped out of Santa’s note book. *-My, I don’t want to lose that. That is my favorite Christmas place. There are many ladies who are bothered to know what to select for thelr gentlemen friends, Now what can a fellow get more comfort out of than a vica smokiry set, & becutiful meer- echuuin pipe, or cigar holder! Poregoy « Moore have a great varioty of them, and some of tho handsomest and cheap- est ever put into a show case for sale. Then there the finest brands of cigars on which Peregoy & Moore have gained such a reputation. A box of fine cigars is not a bad gift. 1 tell you, and many a man appre- clates euch a gift, You know I don’t wsmoke, myself. It's too heattng for an old fellow like me that likes all the cold ho can get, but many of my friends enjoy nothing botter than a cosy smoke by the fireside, and so I'm going to provide my- self at Peregoy & Moore's with some of those beautiful pipes, cigar-holders, cig- arette holders, a few boxes of choice cigars, ote. 1 tell you, I know many a friend of mine who can thus be maae onsily happy.'’ The sun was getting out a little and Santa gathering himeelf up satd he would see Thr Bre man again ina day or two and give him some more pointers on Christmas. THE FATAL SHOIL, Details of the Death of K at Oakland, This week's Acorn gives the following details in regard to the accidental death of Frank Strong, son of J, M, Strong, of that place Oa Tuesday forenoon he remarked to a companion that he would hiteh up his team and draw a load of willows from an adjoining field to the honse, g0 that he could begin the preparation of his sum- mer's fuel. Suiting the action to the word he was soon on the spot and had his wagon loaded. He had brought his gun along—a double -barrel muzzle loader —as he said he was going to bring home some game for diuner. Leaving his tsam hitched to the fence he went south about a quarter of a mile, when a gun raport was heard by a passer-by and he was seen to pick up & rabblt. In the meantime his father had happened upon the team and driven it home, Frank was last seen alive a few rods north of asmall culvert in a slough about a quarter of & mile east of A, J.

The report is in favor of paylng $1,400, the bill for that amount belng endorsed by N. P. Dodge, J. M. Phillips and Thomas Oflicer, besides four out of the six aldormen, a protty strong backing, in addition to the other documents, a synopeia of which has already been given, in which such men as A, W. Street, D. C, Bloomer, Peter Bechtole and others recommend a still larger compensation, The council will doubt- ioss allow the amount which the mayor has already exprossod a willingness & take; it being $905, a sum less than th lowest amount fixed by auy who have made & public estimate of what should be poid him. It seems that as the amount ia to be paid by those who have the pav- ing to pay for, that those propoerty own- ers who aro willingly paying these taxes shall be the ones to object, if any objec- tions are to be ralsed, rather than ount- siders, non-tax-payers, or those that are protesting against paying for any paving expenses at all. Tue BEE has stated the cage fully as it views it, and the council will doubtless to-night order the war- rants drawn, and that will probably end the matter. 10WA ITEMS, lowa has raised 500,000,000 bushels of corn this seagon. Burlington wants the street carain that city heated, which is an excellent idea. The new postoflice at Sioux City will be ready for occupancy the lat of Janu- ary. The boys in Sioux City have been pro- hibitea from rolling hoops upon the streets. The Burlington & Mistlssippi Elevator company has been reorganized at Bur- lington. Twenty-three saloons in Sioux City have paid licenses and fifteen more are to ollow. Itis reported that Mr. J. R Sage, editor of the DesMoines Capital, will soon take unto himself his fifth wife. The town of Ross, Audubon county, wants a blackemith and it is said there is a fix;ue class opening for a knight of the anvil, The boys in Burlington amuse them selves by throwing stones at untied horses and a number of runaways have occurred thereby. Gamblers in Sioux City are threaten- ing to thrash the newspaper reporters if they report thelr cheating operations, but the boys write them up just the same, and none of them have been killed yet. The following companies have filed their artlcles of incorporation with the secretary of state: The DBeat’Em All Barbed Wire company, of Waterloo, with a capital of 120,000, and the Odo- bolt Creamery company, with a capital of 510,00, For some time Jonathan Bunker and Marion Hollingsworth, of Jackson town- ship, Henry county, lowa,have quarreled over a piace of road, On Tuesday, the 2nd, they came to blows, and Hollings- worth used a clubbed gun on Bunker,who took an axo and ocut a fearful gash on Hollingsworth’s head, literally severlng one of his ears, Bunker escaped with slight injuries. More serious aflrays oc- cur in lowa over road disputes than any other one cause,—Ottumwa Courier. The Creston Advertiser says hogs in the vicinity of (ilenwood are dying from a sort of lung fever, and an unknown digenso is aflecting the cattle, The first symptoms are a running or frothing at the mouth and nose, great itching ap- parently about the head and ears, and a seeming of unconsciousness of surround- ings. Shortly after the frothing at the mouth begins the brute will begin to travel, if atall, in circles, running into anything that happens to be in the way. They generally live from five to eight hours after the first indications appear. — A Progressive Chinaman, Chong Wah, late of Mott street, New York, now of north Ninth street, Phila- delphia, is the first Chinese merchant to advertlse in the Philadelphia papers, He sat behind the counter in his store to- night with his hat on, He s very small and his chin barely reaches the top of the show case. On the shelves were the Chinese jumping jacks rattles for babies, Jamanese doll babies, and & variety of other Chinese and Japanese toys. Chong Wah has a shrowd business look, talks good Englieh, and is hopeful of making a fortune in his new store, “‘You see I get ready for Christmas— ssll toys, make plenty money,” he said. ‘1 pay 155 a month rent, 1 hire whole building, You thiok I make money?” A young womean entered the store at this juneture. Cnong Wah smiled and said: “How youdo Misa! what you want’' After pricing nearly everything inthe store the young woman finally bought a rattle for five ceuts. *'(iood oight.

It of those marvelously cloar nights such as the countriea of dry alr al an show, when the moon scems like a ball of quicksilver hanging in the sky only half # mile away; when every cliff or scar or jutting crag in the mountain stands out and overhangs the mountain’s base, and the deep shadows of the canchs scem solid hilla of jet trying to cverstep the glant mass beeide them. Aoout 260 yards away, apon the leeward eide of the dead cow, the party halted and tied their horses, while some ¢f the men went ahoad on foot to reconnoiter. Behind a littlo knoll, a bundred yards or o from the bait, they stopped. Over the dead animal half a dozen coyotes were unarling aud feeding, but no coyotes were near. Hours passed away, when there was a sudden lull in the noise of the cogotes, when they began to sueak away from the bait. The crackle of brush was heard, toc, in the chaparral, and in a minute a huge mass of shazay blackness emerged. At nearly two o'clock in the morning the bear had finally decided to eat, and start- ed toward the carcass, Quickly the men went back for the horees. The horses knew a3 well as their masters what was coming, and each one trembled like a leaf as tho great horsehair girth was “‘cinched” as tightly as the long running strap could draw it. Don Fran- cisco Machado, one of the ownera of the ranch, was sclected to make the first throw. He rode quietly up to within about one hundred yards, and then, like a flight of arrows, the six horses shot forward beneath the impulse of the spurs, argo be not “‘Into the jaws of hell,” it is very much like it. Certain it is that more mencan be found to lead a chargo like that of the Light Brigade than to lead such a one as Don Francisco led. At the clatter of the feot the bear rose with s savago growl from his supper. Right up within fiftsen feet of the brute rode Don Franclsco, with his brother, Don Jusn Machado, anda frlend close behind him. Another brother, Don Jose Mechado, and two other horsemen split off and pressed upon the other side of the victim. Wheehoo, wheehoo, went the noose twice around the rider’s head as ho approached the bear; wkiz went the noose as it flew from his hand. With a faint zip 1t fell over the bear's hoad, and in a twinkling the other end of the rope was wound around the horn of tho saddle and tho noose drawn tight with a sudden jerk. The bear, inatesd of being pulled off his fest or trying to loosen the riata made a rush for Don Francisco, but the quick horse sprang forward fast enough to keep the riata tight, and in a moment another noose, from the hand of Don Jose, dropped over the bear’s head from behind; buv it also went uader ona foot, making the noose catch over the should- er. Valnly the horse set himself back upon his haunches. No horse could hold such a hold as that, and Don Jaun had to drop his riate. Don Francisco now tried to jerk the bear sideways g0 as to got him oft his feet or to get him to raise his feet so that they could be easily noosed by his com- panions, His horse sprang beneath the spur like a snake from coil, but the riata tightened on a weight no horse could overthrow. Meanwhile noose after noose aimed for the brute’s legs whizzad through the air. But he would not keep a foot clear of the ground long enough for a successful throw, and his move- ments were 8o irregular that it was im- possible to base calculations upon them 80 a8 to cast che loop In time. But in a moment more zp came another loop over the bear’s head and full around his neck. As it tightened he rose upon his feet, while both loops were pulled in opposite directions, In a twinkling his paws were beneath them, in a moment he had them both in his mouth. Such strength sur- prised and alarmed his persecutors. The air was filled with Spanish ejaculations, and the worst of it was that both fore paws were now 8o protected that neither one could be lassded. Amid the “‘Carrajos” and “Carrambas” and ‘‘que diablo s este” one of the riatas, frayed and cut half In two by teeth and claws, parted beneath the strain, and before an- other cast could be made the second one gave way. The great boar was again free, and two of the best hands were ompty. But the bear was free for only a In- stant, The very incarnation ot fury, he made a rush at Don Jose, whose horee wheeled with a whirl that would huve landed an ordinary rider in the claws of the enewy. Just as he rushed npon him, open mouth and raging, another noose came with a sudden snap around his head catehing in his mouth and tightening on the mstant behind his teeth and behind his ears. A% ho reared upon his feet an- other one fell over his head upon top of the first one, and by the two he was jerked over backward, and then there was a wild confusion of horses and men and ropes and bear and Spanish inter- jeotions and cries of ‘“*Agarra un pie,” “Pronto,” “*De veras es el diabolo,’” ete Bsfore one of his feet could be secured he had so cut the second around his neck with his claws that it gave way and he turned over and was again upon his feet. The noose in his mouth stilt held, and as Le raised one paw to get that loose, zipp landed another loop rght over the paw. Ina twinkling that paw was outstretched, pulling the bear so that he raised the hind foot upon the other side, Quicker than it can be told that foot was cavght up by adexterous fling from Don Franclsco and outstretched. Another riata was cast over his head, and by the aid of the two he was pulled backward, while by the riatas on his feet he was swupg around. A horseman stood ready In front and another behind, oach with riata in short coll ard with a small poose ready to pick up the two loose feet. The front one was suapped the first time he raised it clear enough from the ground for the noose to pass under; and as this paw was out- stretched and the bear fell upon his bel y the lagt foot was taken in a twinklivg and the monster lay spread out upon the ground as flat and help- less as a dead doj. His hide was on monthe at Los Angeles and was the wonder of all old bear hunte Hie head was more than the s rongest mao in the psrty could lift clear from the wround, and his weight was estlmated it 1,800 to 2,000 pounds, was one exhibition for o — The Oost of Peace in Europe- Chicago Newa, It is probable that very few readers realize what it costs to preserve the peace K JE MONDAY, DECEM 1 82t | of Europo.

Miller, editor of the Omaha Herald, expected to be called to a cabinet position under Prea- ident Cleveland is complotoly disposed of by the announcement that Dr. Miller sceks no oabinet appointment, but will be satistied with the Omaha postoftice. We admire and venerate Dr. Miller, but we agree with him that he hasdone noth- ing to entitle him to a cabinet place. Of course he has voted the democratic ticket with unswerving regularity, but aside from this habit he has done nothing for the democratic party at large, except Lo send & mysterious cipher tele- gram in 1876 and to address a communi- catlon to a Utica paper last summer on the subjecr of catalpa-treo culture, De. Miller has edited the Omaha Herald ever elnce the high water of 1844; and although he has been a consistent and fonrless democrat, the ropublican majori- ty in Nebraska has grown steadily ever since the date of Nebraska's admission to the union, If it is tair to judge men by their workas and repay them according- ly, we believe Dr. Miller ought to feel liberally rewarded when he receives his commission as postmaster at the west end of the Council Blufls bridge, C—— Mark Twain and His Buttons, Mark Twain and George Cable went to Albany to call on Governor Cleve- land, They also visited the Adjutant General's office.

Its color an, n |on the strength of the | In colored persons they most abund Ibinos they are altogether finely and so delicately is the nstrocted that it is very casy the source of its fo n, equently, the hair iteelf, To illusirate his subject, the speaker pre- {aonted a number of steroopticon views showing the formation of the hair and the progress of its growth, To the glands, which keep the skin molst, aro due much of the trouble which results in the loas cf the hair. Their inaction s too often attributed to bad blood or indiges- tion. This is not, aa & rule, the primary cause. Mental anxiety and injudiclous dressing have much to do with ~spoiling the complexion and causing skin diseases The uso of potassium, especiaily bromlde of potash, was becomlpg too popular, It is taken to excens, just as calomel was formerly used. This is reprehenaible, and does great harm to the hair. Indi- gestible food is, of course, not conducive *0 health, but good butter, oils and other rich articles are not hurtful, The lec- turer then turned his attention to the ladies, and said that corsets 'and high heeled shogs were very damaging to the complexion. Corsets will not o out of fashion, and something of the kind must be used; but too tight lacing is unneces- sary, and robs tho ekin of its healthy color, Tho long, thick crape veil is also very harmful to the weaver. It is gener- ally worn for two consecutive years, and in that time the powder from the matter used in the dye is continually being in- haled. 1In addition to thls, the rouga material cuts the face, and causes ais- cases of tho skin, Then jt cuts the hair, and interferes with its growth. This veil should be abolished. Then, the rufflivg worn about the mneck, and in many mstances the gloves worn, havo a similar effect on the skin. It has re- contly been ascertained that many of those people employed in the factories in which feathers are dyed are suffering with skin eruptions The lecturer illustrated this by ehow- ing a number of faces more or less dis- figured by skin diseases. Among them was oneof a Vienoa coachman whoso nose appeared to be entirely rotted. This he said was the result of drinking sour wines cf which liquids they con- eumed more than any other people in the world, Returniug to the hair, the lecturer cautioned the ladies against the use of hot irons to curl the hair. A too frequent reptition causes it to dry and ultimately destroyait. The old fash- ioned curling paper is the best agent to give it the desired shape. Itis an un- doubted fact that there are more bald men than women. Whiloin a majority of cases this is due to the death of the roots, yet with many it is hereditary, Many lose their hair through ignorance. The dandrnff which collects on the head is scraped away with such vigor by means of a fine tooth comb that layers of skin come with it.This destroys the hair,water should not be used by ladies to excess; it aids tho growth of vegetable parasites. Their hair should be carefully waehed and dried, but not wrung out. The idea that by cutting oft the hair frequently its growth will be stronger, is a mistaken one. Ladies should nover cut thelrs, A second growth would result in a change of color and texture. It is customary among some men to cut it close to the head. This causes the over-stimulation of the roots and an unnatural growth. Care should be taken not to usea hair brush In common with others. A hair brash is no more common property than a tooth brush. A razor stropped on the same strop used in shaving all people who come into a barber shop, may be- come infected from the contract. Hair dyes and halr washes as well as patent medicines of this kind, should be rigidly excluded, as they have a deleterious effect. Dr. Morlson’ lecture was listened to with great Interest by a- very large audience, e — YOUNG MAN, READ THIS THE VOLTAIO 5ELT UOMPANY, of Marshall Michigan, otier to send their colebrated ELEC TRIC VOLTAIO BELT and other BLECTRIO Ap- PLIANOXS on trial for thirty days, to men (young or old) afflicted with nervous_debility, loss of vitality and manhood, and all kindred troubles, Also for rheumatiem, neuralgis, poralysis, and many other diseases, Completd rostoration to health, vigor and manhood guaranteed.
