Bold Oat at CM.
Ttu tittle eoiutry store
In a littte cross-roads town,
VThPT the street wre topsy-turry
And the tenor tumbled down.
On little wooden building
That all ita paint had lost,
Was a alfn In staggering hand,
"I'm aelllng out at cost."
Group of grinning ehlldrsn
Were playing here and there,
White Sloth stalked nnobserTcd
All about them everywhere.
Near the door were some lounger
Whom care had never crossed.
Who scarcely knew the meaning
Of selling out at cost.
The world 1 full of travelers, .
All along the way.
Who accept it as they find It
With each succeeding day;
They know not and care not
If every chance is lost.
And by Idleness increasing
Are selling out at cost. .
The young man or the old.
Who Is standing idly by, "
Unconcerned about the future
And the moments as they By,
May meet with even sailing.
And ne'er be tempest-tossed.
But slowly and unconsciously
He's selling out at cost.
The worth of man's not measur'd
By his bank account or gold.
Or the promises to pay
That he groups withid his hold,
He may acquire millions.
Of chances make the most.
And die a very pauper.
His manhood sold at cost.
The Frlnoess of Monaco.
' One of Europe's most beautiful and
accomplished women is the Princess of
Monaco. She is not the wife of a power
ful potentate, but she lias made Mon
aco a center of attraction for other
'people than gamblers. Pierre Loti and
Bugmes le Roux and Oscar 'Wilde and
George Meredith and Sir Frederick
Leig-hton, with scores of others as di
vergent seemingly in thought and aim,
are among those she had called friends.
Robert Browning more than once
visited her, and she is especially proud
of having possessed his acquaintance.
There is a photograph of Sarah Bern
hardt in the Princess' boudoir and it
bears this inscription: "A son Altesse,
Alice de Monaco, 1890." The picture
was taken especially for the Princess
and the plate was afterward destroyed.
The Countess Macchetta, who is better
known on this . side of the water as
Blanche Roosevelt, or, better yet, to a
mall but intimate circle as Miss Tucker
of La Crosse, Wis., is one of the Amer
icans who are counted in the Monte
Carlo winter circle of literary and ar
tistic and musical people whom Alice
de Monaco gathers about her.
Her summers she spends in England,
and she is in London at the present
time. At the Princess of Wales' gar
den pnrty a few weeks ago she was
called the most beautiful woman in at
"ndunee. The Due de Richelieu was the Prin
cess' first husband, and she has two
children by him the young Due, who
attends a day school, and Mile. De
Richelieu, who has an English gov
erness. Aside from children and her
husband, Alice of Monaco's time is
given to books, music and clever peo
ple, and so she has a pleasant life of it
on the crag where the palace lifts itself
out of the purple of the slumbering
.sea. .
Miss Tsln Yew Me.
Miss Tsin Yew Me is the only daugh
ter of Tsin Kwo Yin nnd her arrival at
the Chinese legation in Washington in
July last was a great occasion. Miss
Tsin 'has a big brother about 14 years
old, who is busily engaged in becoming
a learned man like his distinguished
father. It is said that she doesn't cry
at all, although she fills the big house
aometimes with her crowing. She
Bleeps during the day a great deal,
lives on milk and other things that
American babies would eat and
goes to bed at 6 o'cloak every
night. Me meann beauty and
is the Chinese name for Amer
ica. It isn't likely Miss Tsni will learn
English, for her father's term of ap
pointment expires a year from Decem
ber. With the exception of her little
atockings Miss Tsni's garments are Clii
nese.pnre and simple and were all made
by the baby's mother or her nnid.
When she is dressed there is a long blue
cloth hanging down that can be
wrapped about the feet. And above it
is a thick, wadded pink robe that folds
across the front like Yum Yum's pretty
gowns. It is edged with a bright green
binding and underneath this quilted
wrap is a dark red, knit woolen gar
ment and others still.
The Milliner.
A bonnetof embroidered white velvet
is very beautiful. There is a new use
of velvet this autumn that develops
many pretty ideas. This is the employ
ment of velvet without the support of a
frame. Not only are the children's
M 3are-briin bonnets made thus, but hats
of all shapes for ladies. The velvet is
plaited into ruffles usually, and always
is lined; oftenest with some bright color;
slight stiffening between the outside
and the lining serves to give the mater
ials body that they may be shaped.
An idea wrought out in various ways
is that of a velvet collarette encircling
a felt hat The collarette is made by
shirring a strip of velvet, leaving ruffles
to turn up and down. These collarettes
there seems to be no better name for
them are offered ready-made for ama
teur trimming. Sometimes the crown
of the hat is sunk far below the top of
the ruffle, suggesting, as did some of
the spring trimming, the crater of a
volcano. Soft French fult is pinned
into jaunty turbans and toques with
fancy pins, and in the same manner is
made to form the crowns of hats having
stiff felt brims. There are little bon
net of peacock feathers and iridescent
and other wings made to clam the hat
upon both sides and stand up before
and behind.
Olive Rchrelner at Home.
A South African traveler, -who took a
ten-mile tramp one morning with Miss
Olive Schreiner and her five dogs, has
this to say of her:. "Although not an
apt speaker in pnblio assemblies, Miss
Olive Schreiner is an animated conver
sationalist.full of thoughts that breathe
and words that burn, her heart aglow,
bavtnf been vt on ( r by nature ani
by intense philaotlimp e sympathy; her
naturalism nut spolltrd by literary
studies, her affability nut chocked by
success. Once a deadly puff adder,
threw feet long, glided acrou out path.
bo uncommon experience, and wh.le I
timidly shrank away Miaa Schreiner,
borrowing my long African sLiok.'went
for the reptile, she cherishing an im
placable enmity toward all the snake
tribe. Of personal anecdote Mis
Schreiner had no small store with
which to beguile the way. Once, for
instance, she and her sister wera dis
turbed at night by some unaccountable
movements, and in the morning found
a snake lying harmlessly in bed be
tween them. These are mot, however,
frequent experiences in South Africa."
A Tastefal Hanging Placaiatoa.
A long bag, one inch and a half
wide, stuffed with sawdust and cov
ered on each side with a differoat shade
of ribbon, tied at the top with narrow
ribbon and a loop left to hang it up by.
The pins can be stuck in all over it or
only in a row up each side. And down
the center of each ribbon a design or
verse may run.
A similar cushion for parlor use is
made of a bag eight inches long and
three inches wide, inserting a Japanese
doll's head at the top of the bag, over
seaming the edges across the should
ers. Openings fir the hands to ex
tend horizontally are left at the sides.
A shash and girdlo of half-inch rib
bon shape the doll, which is suspended
from the gas by a loop at the back of.
the same ribbon.
Emeralds Are Growing la Favor.
' Emeralds are fast coming back into
favor, and will perhaps be the most
fashionable stones with the exception
of diamonds, of course, this winter.
And very beautiful stones they are,
too, as the Spaniard recognizes when
he calls the eyes of any much admired
lady, "pure emerald in hue." And
did not Dante long ago speak of the
radiant orbs of his Beatrice as "emer
ald as the sea?" A very lovely com
parison when we come to think of it.
Nowadays people speak somewhat
slightingly of green; perpaps that is
because they do not comprehend what a
really beautiful, tender color dt is, or
how capable of forming the loveliest
shades and tints.
A boat Gift Giving.
I should like to say a few words in
regard to giving and receiving pres
ents. - First, it is well to make presents
only to members of the family. The
only exception to this rule should be
old or very intimate friends, and care
ful consideration must bo made in
order to know if this exception will ad
mit those to whom we are about to
send these tokens of friendship. I
know a lady who distributes gifts pro
miscuously among her acquaintances,
and, though often accepted, they are
very rarely appreciated because they
fail to remind the receivers of that
feeling of interest a' ways existing be
tween friends.
Emperor Wllllaras Pretty Speech.
The German Emperor loses no op
portunity of winning favor with the
ladies with his gallant speeches. One
of the prettiest of these courtier-like
utterances wao delivered in answering
a toast to his wife in the province where
she was born. ''The bond that unites
me to this province and chains me to
her in a manner different from all the
others of my empire is the jewel that
sparkles by my side, her Majesty, the
Empress. Sprung from this soil, the
type of the various virtues of a German
Princess, it is to her I owe it if I am
able to meet the severe labors of my
oflics with a happy spirit and make
head against them."
A Woman Engineer.
When Mrs. Alexander Bremer ap
plied for the position of deputy factory
inspector of New Y'ork she was pre
pared to undergo an examination in
mechanical engineering and the results
showed that she possessed as wide a
knowledge of the modern elevator,
heating and ventilating apparatus as
any man on the force. She can tell at
a glance the machine wheels and steam
pipes that need protecting, what eleva
tors are unsafe, where the plumbing is
defective and the workshops that are
over-crowded, insufficiently lighted and
ill-equipped for work,.

It is said that the Princess Victoria,
youngest daughter of the Prince of
Wales, is to be president of the English

Ilerr von Donner, a millionaire mer
chant of Hamburg, has presented his

the life of Frau von Donner.
An impressive service in memory of
the late Mrs. Booth, the mother of the
Salvation Army, was held last month
in the Crystal Palace, London, and was
attended by 10,000 persons. Songs,
prayers, and sayings and extracts from
the writings of Mrs. Booth were
flashed on animmensa screen instead of
being read or spoken, which would
have been impossible with so great an
audience. i
A native bride in Ilindoostan is loaded
down with all the jowelery she can get.
She has a girdle at the waist, numerous
rings, anklets, bracelets, and bells, and
decorations for the hair. Although she
has never seen her intended husband,
she goes and sits beside hiin on the day
of the ceremony. The priest t;tkes a
corner of the bride's veil and ties it to
the groom'K shawl, and they are married.
The word "honeymoou" is traceable
to Teutonic origin. Among the Teu-;
tons was a favorite drink, called
"methcglin." It was made of mead '.
and honey, and, was like that of the
European countries. These honeyed
drinks were used more especially at
marriage festivals which were kept up
among the nobility cne lunar month, j
the festive board being well supplied
with methegHu. "Honahmoon" signi
fied the moon or moonath of the mar
riage festival. Ala'ric, .the Goth, cele
brated by Sonthey's poem, died on his
wedding night from too free indulgence

Fartnora do not always keep turkeys;
they claim they do not pay. This is
because tbey are unable to raise them.
loo much care and fussing. Even
the wife can't bear to bother with a
brood of young turkeys that would
much prefer to die than live. I sea
that many are turning their attention
to them now, and these are the ones
who will not allow anything to con
quer them.
In the bronze turkey we have a bird
that l well known everywhere. The
mammoth bronze, as tbey are usually
called, for tbey are indeed of mam
moth size, is considered without ex
ception to be the king of all varieties,
the largest and bardioat of all txrlceys
now raised. It is of an exceedingly
rch, changeable metallic color, and
does not attain its full size and weight
until 3 or V year old. At maturity
the hens will weigh from fifteen to
twenty pounds, the gobblers from
thirty to forty pounds. The first year
usually they will outweigh any other
variety. Thoy are good layers good
mothers, excellent foragers, and the
joung mature rapidly. The young
turkeys may be raised by hens or the
hen turkey. The latter is preferable,
as the turkey ben is more tender and
careful of her young, and experience
tells me that they may be entrusted to
hr care when first hatched, if the
weather is warm and favorable.
Should the hon acd brood be sud
denly caught in a passing shower of
rain the hen will patiently wait until
the sun dries the grass before she
proceeds on her journey with her
young and tender brood. A chicken
is, on the contrary, much more rest
less, and as soon as the rain ceases
meanders forth, calling her young
brood with her. If they go through
wet grass thoy will take cold, and a
funeral is the next thing on the pro
gramme. The bronze turkey hen. true to her
nature, loves to forage, and leads her
flock into the meadows or Holds, where
grasshoppers, injects and worms
abound. This kind of food seems to
j suit young turkeys most admirably,
I for although the young may receive
I no other care than what the natural
j mother bestows, they grow and thrive
j amazingly. It is more to the liking
' of a ehlcken to remain near at home.
; Turkeys are easily domesticated and
; become almost too familiar, and are
' apt to be quite troublesome pets to
have about
Should the wea'her be cool and wet
when the young are hatched, tbey
should not be permitted to venture out
at all from their dry, warm coop.
They should be let out with the turkey
hen only when the grass is dry and
the sun warm. Bronze turkeys are
as easily raised as young chlcka Late
hatched turkey will grow and thrive
fast in cold weather If liberally fed
end properly housed. All they con
sume during the period of growth,
they make a good account of. and
they are certainly the most profitable
of our domestio farm fowls, whether
bred for market or kept for breeding
purposes. A farm Cock is not com
plete without them.

The American Analyst says that $2,
000,000,000 are Invested In the dairy
business of this country. It requires
15,000. 000 cows to supply the milk and
f 200, 000. 000 worth of dairy and other
Agricultural machinery; 7u0, 000 men
and over 1, 000. 003 horses are required
to do the work. To feed the cows and
horses it takes each year 30,000,000
tons of hay. almost 30,000,000 bushels
of corn meal a large amount of oat
meal, 275. 000.0 JO bushels of oats,
2,000.000 bushels of bran, and 30,000,
000 bushels of corn, besides brewery
grains, sprouts, cotton-seed meal, etc.
The total feed is estimated to be worth
M50,UOO,000. aud the cost of labor
$180,0)0 003.
The average yield is 450 gallons
yearly per cow. or 6, 750, 030. 000, which
at 12 cents per gallon would net the
farmers $81,000,000 per year if all
sold as milk, but one-half is used in
making butter and cheese. It takes
twenty-seven pounds of milk to make
one pound of butter and ten pounds to
make a pound of cheese. Eight and a
half pounds of milk has as much nu
triment as one pound of beef, and as a
fat steer has fifty per cent of boneless
beet it would require 21.000.003
steers weighing 1.C0J pounds each to
give the same food value as is given
in the milk product.
Tiis Art of Dining.
The art of dining is to have acheer
ful disposition at the table as well as
palatable food. A sour, scolding,
fault-findlnc disposition if kept up
long enough will produce dyspepsia as
certainly as wet feet will produce a
cold. That mental animation and a
mirthful atmosphere are better than
drugs to assist a weak stomach to per
form its duties, can be shown by the
experienco of almost every one. It
is a well knows fact that whei one
dines with a company of friends, he
oftentimes eats mora and richer food
than usual and yet feels no 111 effects
from It, 1 have known a person who
was accustomed to be regularly dis
tressed three times a day at home, to
go to an evening party at which a late
supper was served, and. throwing dis
cretion to the winds, enter into the
en.oyment of the good things, both
mental and material that his host and
hostess had provided, and go home
late at night, amazed that he had for
gotten thut he had such an article as
a stomach! I do not mention this to
encourage the folly of late suppers or
of injudicious eating, even on festive
oocasions, but to show that the mind
hus much to do with the function of
digestion.
Stubborn Cream.
Stubborn cream is a peculiar result
of dryer food, cows long in milk and
well advanced in gestation, three
things that contribute to smaller
globules of fat ia the milk. tnr al
buminous matter to eoulond with. m4
what may be called Uryae at the
cream. Cows that are provided with
an abundance of succulent forage la
late fall and winter give milk not
greatly different ia churnablllty from
summer. The remedy for stubborn
cream is to add a little warm water to
the milk when it is set out; churn a
few degrees warmer than usual and
slightly dilute the cream when the
churn starts. A noted professor says
that diluting cream does no good, and
then -says that he used warm skim
milk for the purpose. Of course he
failed, as he was adding more of the
same kind of 'Sticky substance" to
the eream. that was occasioning the
trouble of stubbornness, Water
liquifies this albumtnou substance
and helps to set free the globulus from
this embrace of albumen. Often
cream in the winter foams, and it is
simply because of this same albumen
frothing, the same aa when whites of
eggs are beaten; a spoonful of water
will 'upset" a plate of "frosting"
and two quarts of water at 103 0 will
stop the foaming of the cream.-

The Solid Hi Flola la Cora.
We all know our common Indian
corn and what a quantity of food for
man and beast it furnishes. Take a
large plant ol fully matured corn;
make it into a compact shape and
weigh it Then put it Into an oven
and dry it thoroughly, as a chemist
would in his drying bath. Now weigh
it, again, and you will find the weltrht
of the water it has lost and will be
surprised to note the amount which
this - mature corn contained. Now
take the dried corn plant - and burn it
slowly so that no part of the ashes
can ba blown away; continue the
burning until the ahe are left per
fectly white, gathering the ashes in a
crucible for this purpose. We will
find that these white ashes weigh very
little when compaied with the weight
of the great stalks, ear and foliage we
begin with.
What has gone with all the rest
now that we have but a handful of
ashes? The fire has destroyed it, you
say. ' No, we cannot destroy any
thing. The burning only changed the
form of the plant. The things which
made up the greater part of the corn
still jxist, but they have gono back to
the air, from whence the plant first
got them. The pile ot ashes in our
hand is about one-twentieth of the
original wolght of the dry plant, and
in It are the materials that the plant
got from the soil ' The nine-tenths
that have disappeared in the air show
how large a part of all plants comes
from the air. The ashes are tho min
eral part and got into the plant by
being completely dissolved in the soil
water, which it took up in making its
growth. W. F. M&ssey, in Uomeantf

. Good Curing flam.
After tho animal is frown and tho
hams cut the very important question
of curing them must bo considered.
Many hams, like cider vinegar are
spoilt In the curing. A good brine for
curing them may be made as follows:
Five pounds of sugar to 100 pounds ot
meat one ounce of Btiltpotre to 20
pounds of meat; one ounce of salt to
every pound of meat, and water to
cover all the hams packed in this
brine. It should be understood that
the lower tho temperature the longer
it takes to cure tho hams, and in very
cold winters tho temperature in the
cellars for ordinary pqrk-curlng is so
low that considerable time for the cur
ing is required. If the hams have
been in the brine tbey should be
smoked for three days, and If cut then,
and it is found that the pickle has not
reached all the way through them, tho
brine should be boiled over end
skimmed. Pack the hams away again
in a temperature of about 40 degrees.
Tbey should then be returned to the
smoke-house for a day, but thoy should
not be hung here until the brine has
dried oSf them. A bitter taste will be
given to them if hung in the smoke
house wot with the brine. To give
thom the rich brown color so well
known In market ham they should be
hung near a stove for several days,
and then be rubbed over thoroughly
witn cotton cloth, tine looking and
nicely flavored hams will thus be se
cured. American Cultivator.

Neglecting to food properly is one cause
of failing to secure a good growth of
wool.
A bunch of sheep uniform in age, breed,
size and color, will sell readily at good
prices.
No matter how good the breed, unless
good feed aud cure ia given, tbey will de
generate. Grub in the head does not kill as many
sheep as die because of a luck of good grub
in the belly.
Making the sheep comfortable and feed
ing well will secure a steady growth of
wool every day.
A real good dog does not kill sheep, and
a real good man does not often have a
sheep killing dog.
Sheep that are healthy and vigorous
will take care of themselves better thou
any other class of stock.
