A former ambassador of the tjnited States to one of the Europan capitals said the other day that the $17,t'!0 sal ary which diplomats of tbat rink re ceive Is ampie to support such an offi cial in all the dignity of his position. "You hear a great deal bjut the members ot our diplomatic serv'ce be ing underpaid," he said, "but all such talk is absurd. It comes from ?he fact that nearly all our ambassadors n re cent years have been suite wealthy and hive lived beyond their official Ii'ome. They spent perhaps twice as much as they were really called upon to do, and because of this the story goes out that they relinquish their post wc-se off nuanciaiij mu urv t w . work. All of this is true enough, but it is no argument for an Increase in salaries. Any American can go o Lon don and perform all the social ob.iga tions devolving upon the ambaado" and still have a few dollars to the good t the end of his term. And tiis lead? to the reflection that while lately all o' our diplomatic representatives at th. court of SL James have been veiy well off, in earlier years they were '-orr.-pondingly poor," Philadelphia North America. .Stll J Where th Marriage r " Fropi A poor couple living in the Erierald We went to the pii st for marriage and were met with the demand tor tbe mar riage fee.

The reasons for this aaioaisii iug phenomenon were these: Whca Xavier began his mi&slda Japan wu divided into countless small p.i:c!pai ities, continually at war with sactt other. Buddhism and Shlntoism then less beparated than today, were v.inrapi ed to a degree. Hence the is p',e let themselves be rsadily carried away by the fresh and sturdy Christian i.ropa ganda. But a reaction against ViU uni versal dismemberment of the r.s.tm ap peared. First, a prince, Not-unaga called "Enemy of Buddha," because he attacked unsparingly the pow.rfu Buddhist monasteries, showed the mori favor to the Christian teachings, iu order to gain support against tlie BuJ-i- hist priests, and the new cctrinu spread rapidly, especially In the south ern provinces. But these favorable conditions weiv not to last. 1582 Nobunaga wis mur dered. The attitude toward th Chris tians of hia successor, the ;iowerfui Hideyashl, was very different, and per sjcution began, which was due partly to the intrigues of the Buddhists, tue ar rogance of the Christian priests ia their attitude toward the ruler, and tho boast ing declaration of a Spanish ship cap tain tbat the mighty king of Spain was spnding his priest into foreign iandu in order first to convert the peopU anil through this means to make th.; r con quest more easy. But the true reason was the desire t-r unity annng th? Japanese. , ' - The Christian priests used thei power to aid conversion by violence and persecution. There was also o.rifa and Jsalousy between the different order. It is, therefore, readily lntelligillo tbat the ruler, led by an idea of unity, plan ned to remove the religious d:!T ranees and to rely rather on the older tv-ligloa.

To give empha sis to the decree six monks and twenty Japanese Christians were crucified. Hli successors In the main followed a.'-! policy, and gradually a firm policy was rstablished which could outlast the death of any oti! chief, and tj this gvs;em belonged the exterminvion of the first Christian church in Japan.

The Idea of all of them is to keep out the air so that oxygen decay may b arrested for a considerable length of time, especially if the eggs are per fectly fresh at the start, and are kept In a cool, dark place. The standard method montly used by speculators and dealers Is to put eggs In lime water. The process Is as follows, this recipe having been widely sold at f j un le? pledge of secrecy. Tak two gallons of water, twelve pounds of un slaked lime and four pounds of salt, or in that proportion, according to the quantity of eggs to be preserved. Stir several times daily and then let stand until tfie liquid has settled and is per fectly clear. Draw or carefully dip off the clear liquid, leaving the sediment at the bottom. Take five ounces each of baking soda, cream of tartar, salt peter and an ounce of alum. Pulver ize and mix these and dissolve in one gallon of boiling water and add to the mixture twenty gallons of pure llnie water. This will about fill a clde barrel. Put the egss In carefully so as not to crack any of the shells, let ting the water always stand an inch above the eggs, which can be done by placing a barrel head a little smaller upon them and weighting it. This amount of liquid will preserve i,'M') dozen eggs. It is not necexsary 10 wait to get a full barrel or smaller package of eggs, but can be put in at any time if fresh. The same liquid should be used only once. A good plan is to rake up the cobs around the feed yards and burn them. The hogs will relish the charcoal and ashes. This will add to the neatness of the feed lot and to the comfort and health of the hogs. Anything of a charcoal nature is a good thing for the hogs. They need access to charcoal probably as much as to any other one element, and on the average they pro bably get It more Infrequently than any other. Some swine men claim that a great deal of the Indisposition that appears among hogs would be prevent ed If more charcoal were fed, and this is probably true, and particularly of the drove that never gets It. A pit may be dug and the cobs raked into it, and when well fired cover with a piece of old tin rofing or sheet Iron. When cooled dip out the ashes and charcoal for the pigs. Consul Oliver Hughes, Coburg, says that potato bread Is ued by the peo ple of Thurlngla to feed their horses, especially when they are worked hard in very cold weather. The animals thrive on it and their health and strength are excellent. The method of preparation is sim ple and inexpensive. The potatoes are slowly stewed till soft; they are then mashed thoroughly and an equal quantity of cornmeal is added. H is mixed Into a thick paste with a small quantity of salt! The paste is then di vided into four-pound loaves and al lowed to bake until thoroughly done. In the slow country ovens this gener ally taken from 15 to 18 hour. When cold the loaves are given to the horses and cattle doing neaj work at the rate of four loaves a day ne in the morning, one at noon, one about 4 o'clock and one at night, nnu the last about ten pounds of poor hay are given. It Is claimed for this metn 'od that horses can do much more work on the same amount of food and that it is good for their teeth. The best and cheapest floor, for barns is earth. The only exception io this is for dairy cattle, when the only ...,.hi floor Is one of cement, jnis for sanitary reasons, and for ease cleaning. Good cement floors will . . t J .

The answer to this objec tion is that the proper treatment of earth floors, or any other for that matter, Is to use a comparatively Urge amount Of bedding. As wlin an prrraunwun some holes will be worn In the floor, the prop-T r-ay W fiend these is to clean n thern thoroughly of all flit n an-i down some slightly moistened This plan will succeed In se ram clay. curing a good grafting m earth with the old and make a com plete repair.

With watching and careful buying these may be good feeders when older. Cheap feed can also be supplied, car rying the calves over until ready for the fattening pen. Indications now are that beef will be high in the future. Now is the time to stock up if one has the feed for a season. If the poultry house Is kept clean at all times, there need be but Ht'le fear of disease or failure. No Half" way measures wil answer. The work must be done at fixed times, every day If possible, certainly at least every other day. The dropping boards must be swept clean, fresh water must be put In the drinking fountains, and lime must be kept scattered on floor and ground. The roosts should be given a good coat of kerosene every two weeks, anU nothing m"t b neglected even for a single day. Have fixed day for each duty, and no matter whut hap pns, see that the work is done. It takes but little time when a system Is employed, but a few days' forget ful ness will cause weeks of worry and perhaps considerable loss. The size of the seed Is no sign of the power or absence of power to long re tain vitality. Thi seed of celery, for example, is very small, and yet if kept In the right manner It will remain sound and all right for ten years. It does not appear to be quickly influ enced by conditions, for It germinates slowly, and yet the conditions have to be of a specific character or It will not germinate at sill. It niunt have mois ture constantly to germinate satisfac torily. Every farmer can afford to buy some blooded male fowls for Improving his whole flock. There are men that '- on year after year with tm-ir large flocks of scrubs or mongrels; they say that they are not particular about having blooded birds. Very well, then they have no reason for being In a hurry about breeding up. In that that cane It will be a paying Investment to kill off all the roosters not of good stock and to buy good birds to act us the heads of the flock. In a fe years the farmer will find himself with a very valuable flock of high grade birds. No matter what fod Is given the fowls they will, after a while, tire of It unless given a change. Laying hens are never so well contented as when allowed to gather a grain here and a grain there never getting an over supply at one time. If whole grain food is given, oats, wheat and corn should alternate. Nev er give the same grain two successive days, and a mixture of grains at no time. Tie most Important point to consid er Is that of forcing the hens to voi k. Pury the grain well In the straw ot litter, and, If possible, keep the hens going from sunrise to sunset. If any so't food is given it snouio De leu at the noon houe.but never in such quan tity that the hens will refuse to wort longer. See that the scratching shed Is light and ahy .and the hens will not ob ject to staying there. Don't force the fowls to drink Ice cold water. Tepid water Is prefer able, and should be given at lt-axt three times a day dining the cold weather. CURRENT TOPICS.

The blouse, strapped with short pointed straps set at regular intervals dorn th open frouts. were securwl with - passe menterie buttons of gray and sllv?r, and revealed an inner chemisette ot draped Venetian point, over white satin.

An English sparrow went ufton a search for a new home, yestrr.ny, sayj the N'jw York Commercial Advrruser. It so happened that he lighted. In the course of bis travels, on the su'ute of Benjamin Franklin, which graces tbe big triangle at Park Row's j-iuction with Nai-sau street. The raiial Franklin, as everybody knows, sports a tie wig, whirl twelU out over the ears after the mann.T of the truly swagger girl's back ba'jr, and in the consequent crevice the homeless sparrow fancied he had discovered an :!! iiiva for a next. He jroceeded to experiment. Darting down to the street he captured a tiny bit of rag and shoved it into the open ing between Mr. Franklin's wig and left auricular. The rag failed to catch on the f mooth . metal and slipped out. It was u U by the liUia home-builder and sh'ived back aain. Several other English -parrows gathered around the statue's a'loulders and began to guy the first. He paid no attention to them and by actual rount dragged the obstinate rag back into the crevic? fifteen time. The cecond that It left Its beak It slid down again. Suddenly tbe temper of the much-suffering sparrow exploded. He sailed into his tormentor w!th the energy of a cyclone, and In three min utes the entire crew was whlppoJ most beautifully.
