Trnk-al Dairy Cow.
An Agricultural Department bulletin
shows an illustration of a dairy cow
whose irencral features, it is claimed,
ire almost perfect. She has a medium
sized head and neck and a well defined
shoulder aud neck vein. The body or
barrel is medium to long. but. with a
! great depth through the digestive re-
lion and with a long, well developed
hind quarter and a nicely shaped ud
der. She is short legged, close to the
ground, angular and free from fleshi
ness. Her body shows symmetry,
quality, correlation of parts and there
fore stamina and great digestive ca
pacity, and she exhibits every indica
Hon of the nower to give a large auan
Uty of milk. It Is rare that any person
purchasing a cow having such apparent
constitution and conformation, and yet
being a rangy, open Jointed animal,
will be disappointed In her as a money
maker. There are exceptions to all

Chicago went through country dis

hunters. They would approach a farm

land, and cheerfully pay V for a per

a receipt for the money, and this
turned up later as a promissory nole
for Jt'iOO. It Is aald that the swindlers

seed with fine lantl plaster and sowing

ated at 17 Hue Heautreillis, is about to
disappear, and the place thereof wil)
ki,ow it no more. It has been handed
over to workmen, who will demolish
it to make room for a workshop. Ku
Ueautreillis is an ancient and narrow
street which the omnibuses do not
penetrate, remnant of the times when
the I'lace des Vosges was the liace
Itoyal and the home of beaux, "pe
rulied," and red headed. In the gar
den of the doomed house, famous in

buried In the parish of St. Paul. Now
this garden undoubtedly forms a part
of the ancient cemetery of St i'aul,
and the church, itself, is near at hand,
sot in the midst -of a cluster of old
houses. It is in the garden that tbf
famous Iron Mask is said to have been
buried, and the spot is the Mecca oi
daily pilgrimages. Outwardly. th
place is unlovely enough, ragged and
uncultivated. A few poor bedraggled

from a neighboring wash-bouse, out o
sheer respect for a great name. In a
corner, where are the decayed trunk
of some acacias, and where a pool oi
stagnant water gives an additional as
pect of melancholy, is tiie reputed
grave of the Iron Musk, The old at
tendant will tell you that the watei
does not run a way' because there is a
vault beneath covered over with a
thick bed of cement. In the middle of
the garden there Is a subterranean pas
sage which leads by gentle descent
direct to the cave of burial. The ques
tion which is agitating the minds o)
tbe "Old I'aris" society which watches
over these matters is whether the
bones of this fascinating figure of a
former century are really there. This
will be settled, perhaps, when thf
tomb is opened. Will the strange In
strument that he wore for so many
years be found, rust-eaten, among the
remains? Actually, there is on the
grave a column which bears an Inscrip
tion, cut with a knife, "Here lies Mar-
chiali, the Man with the Iron Mask."
It would appear that the inscription
was copied from a stone, which was
formerly In place there. The ancient
cemetery of St. I'aul is now almost
built over. Here, however, if one may
mrain believe the tradition of the quar
ter, have lain the ashes of Rabelais, of
Mansard, the architect who built the
Kank of France, and the hotel, now

Hitherto the man in the street had
