The kitchen clock was in a wreck with a sewing machine, and the hands pointed to ten minutes pa3t S. A wiliow hedge running north and south near the Schenck homestead was piled full of household, furniture, mattresses, bedding and milk cans, carried through it from Beavers's place, a mile west.

6, $7 and 35 South Illinois QUITTING GERMANY. All but Two American Insurance Companies to Withdraw. (Copyrighted, 18D4, by the Associated Press.) BERLIN, Sept 22. The matter of tha American life insurance companies doing business in Prussia, so seriously affected by the new law requiring, annually, definite information on oath as to the dividends and surplus accumulated for the benefit of those insured under the Tontine plan, seems now about definitely settled. The Mutual Life and the Germanla, of New York, will be the only American companies that are able, under their systems, to conform with the rigorous requirements of the, new Prussian law and they, therefore, will continue to solicit as much. new. business as they can. The Germanla Is the only American company in whose business the Prussian contingent plays a vital part. The Equitable of New York has definitely retired from the field, so far as obtaining new insurance Is concerned, and the enormous and very costly building owned by, that company in Berlin (the only structure in this city entirely built on American principles, and which cost about $1,600,000), Is soon to change hand3. With the Equitable, though, the Prussian business is' of no great account, since it formed but i per cent of its total. Things are similar in the case of the New York Life, .which has also definitely retired from Prussian business. "Vliy Sherman Moved East. McClure's Magazine. f General Sherman was always making little speeches. He had to; it was demanded of him. He was no orator, but he , said original things. His words were crisp, to the point fuid never to be forgotten. When the family were preparing to move from St. Louis to New York Sherman said: VI must see people; I must talk." He loved St. Lcuis, but there was only one New York. I begged a trifle from his little room before he went that - room in which I had so often, late at night, sat alone with him and listened to the magic of his talk. He took a bronze paperweight from his desk. "It is the image of America's greatest captain." he said, and gave me a little figure pf General Grant that had been on his desk for many years. General Sherman's appreciation of Grant knew no bounds. "He was the one level-headed man among us all," he said ore night To Serve Fiih. New York Evening World. Fish is a dainty food. Practice is needed in serving it. Lightness of touch and dexterity of management are necessary to keep the delicate flakes intact. It reauires some skill to rip the skin and lay it back and sever the head and tall with neatness and dispatch. These three articles must never leave the patter: they be long to tho cat. The choicest morsel cf J any white flsh is the cheek. It Is not good form to cut through a flsh. Begin at the I tail and throw, aside the skin. Begin at ! the head to serve, cutting to the back I bone. When the meat on that side is I he!oed. turn the fish and help the other i side In the same way. If there is roe a part should be served each person. Boiling is the nicest way to cook and the easiest way to serve flsh.
