Molasses Going Out.

"The old fashioned molasses is rapidly disappearing as an article of commerce," said a prominent grocer, "and in its place have come a number of sirups. Which are more costly and by no means as satisfactory, especially to the little ones, who delight, as we did when we were young, in having 'lasses on their bread.' Most of the molasses goes into the distilleries, where it is made into mm, for which, notwithstanding the efforts of onr temperance workers, the demand is constantly on the increase, especially in the New England states and for the export trade. The regular drinker of rum will take no other liquor in its place if he can help it. It seems to reach the spot more directly than any other drum. The dark brown sugars have also disappeared, and they are never likely to return, owing to the methods of boiling and the manufacture. -Granulated sugar is of the same composition, as far as saccharine qualities are ooncerned, as loaf, cut loaf, cube and orushed and differs from them only in that its crystals do not cohere. This is because it is constantly stirred during the process of crystallization. The lighter brown sugars taste sweeter than the white, for the reason that there is some molasses in them. "Housekeepers have difficulty these days in finding coarse, dark sugars, which are always preferred for use in putting up sweet pickles, making cakes and similar uses. As they cannot get brown sugar any more it may be well for them to remember that they can simulate brown sugar by adding a teaspoonful of molasses to each quarter of a pound of the white granulated sugar. This combination does as well in all household recipes that call for brown sugar as the article itself, and, besides, it saves them a great deal of hunting for brown sugar, which, as said before, has disappeared from the market."—Washington Star.

Thin Setter Hunts Frojjs.

"Talk about your dog stories," said a prominent sporting man the other day. "I saw something out at Cutoff lako which beat anything I ever heard of. I was out there hunting snipe and saw a man riding around on horseback, and in front of him was circling an Irish setter. As tho fellow did not have any gun, my curiosity was aroused to know what he was doing, but I sup'posed he was simply breaking his dog.

In a few minutes I saw him ride up where the dog was on a dead stand, and the horseman prooeedod to jab a pole he was carrying down into the ground, and, bringing it up, took something oil the end of it. My curiosity was greater than ever, and, circling around, I came up with the horsejian and asked him what he was doing. 'Hunting frogs,' was the reply. 'What is the dog doing?' said I. 'Hunting frogs,' was the laconic answer. 'You don't mean to tell me that the dog will sot the frogs, do your' 'I don't mean anything else.' "A few more questions and answers brought out tho fact that the dog had seen his master hunting around in the grass for frogs and spearing them and had of his own accord taken up tho task of looating tho green beauties. He was a thoroughly trained hunter of birds, and he soon became very expert in locating frogs, so his owner informed me, and my observations of his movement!' continued the statements." OmalKBee.

Thin Man Could Split Hairs.

Lucius Poole, whoso den in Springfield street, Boston, is famous among antiquarians, can do morn wonderful things with a sheet of paper than any one else in America—perhaps'in the world. Not only can ho dovetail, skivo, splice and inlay, but ho can split.. That is tiiu most diillrult achievement in the whole art of book patching. Mr. Poole will tiike a leaf from any of the current magazines and .slice it three time: through its entire length and width, thereby making four sheets instead c-1 one, each of just one-quarter the tiiiok ness of (he original. Splitting hairs ii rough work beside a job like that.

One of Mr. Poole's tricks is to cut an imperfect picture from a page and theu insert one in its stead so deftly that only the closest scrutiny will discover that a liber has boon disturbed. Another is to "plant" a photograph ou tho page of ft book so that one cannot tell that it was not printed there originally.

When Mr. Poole is asked to tell how he performs his feats, he says: "Oh, it'fe Just by work, partly natural and parti} acquired. It would take a year to ex plain the details. "—New York Press.

A Oj imuuttc Pis.

A Kentucky pig has suddenly developed a genius for gymnastics and engineering which eclipse the proudest previous achievements of his race. This? eminent pig was recently placed by his owner in a pasture surrounded by a high wall and ornamented by elm trees festooned with wild grapevines. The walls, however, could not- confine his bold and vagrant spirit. Selecting a tree standing near the western wall of the pasture, he carefully bit loose the lower end of a stout grapevine, which was attached by its tendrils to a limb on a tree, aud, taking this improvised rope in his mouth, swung himself in the air until he gathered an impetus which sent him entirely over the wall: and landed him in the next field, Though often recaptured, he has constantly repeated this extraordinary feat, and his intelligent owner, instead of cutting down his elm trees to restrain bis pig's waixU ring propensity, has de-

cided to educate him for the trapeze adopted by different wearers, such business.—St Louis Globe-Democrat.

Primitive Wale*.

It is au interesting fact, and one showing how little have been the surface! changes wrought in agricultural Wales, that a well defined Roman road exists to this day in the very heart of Lland-! rindod and, with a few breaks, can be traced to the outskirts of Magoe, a ooapie of miles away.

Boarding School Food.

In The Martian, Du Maurier tells of the sort of food supplied at French boarding schools, and by no means overrates its superior excellence. In no other country outside of France does the nutrition of growing youth receive higher consideration. If the meals served at schools there be compared with those given at similar institutions in England, the merit of the French system will be apparent The simple first breakfast of coffee and rolls, tho second consisting of hors d'oeuvres, a dish of meat or fish, one vegetable, sal ad and a sweet, and the dinner at 6 o'clock of similar composition, with the addition of soup, supply ju6t what is needed to encourage mental effort and satisfy physical well being. In England an entirely different system is in vogue. Breakfast at an English boarding school is a substantial meal served at 7 o'clock. In most cases it consists of fish, ham or bacon, eggs and porridge three or four times a week with plenty of milk and sugar. Dinner at 1 o'clock is a most solid repast, lack ing, however, in a sufficiency of green vegetables. Supper at 6 o'clock is main ly farinaceous. It consists of tea, bread and butter. Dr. Savory, medical officer of Haileybury college, in England, in a paper treating of this subject, says that it is the complaint of English teachers that the work done by schoolboys after dinner is not of much use.

The doctor thinks that it is unfortu nate that they cannot have a half holi day every day to digest their dinner He would also allow a glass of mild beer. He found that about one boy in four drank two glasses of it in summer He thinks it unwise to absolutely for bid alcohol, as a boy always craves that which is forbidden. At French board ing schools the pupils drink light claret mixed with water at Gvery meal except the first, breakfast. The nutrition of French schoolboys is thoroughly adapt ed to their habits and environment. The English in feeding theirs believe in bulk in food as more conducive to digestion and the demands of intense muscular effort exacted by the athletic exercises in which they indulge.—New York Sun.

Da Maurier and Morris.

One of tho most extraordinary parallels in chronology is the almost exact coincidence of the time spent in the world by two men who had so much to do with tho molding of the literature and art of their day as George Du Maurier and Williarp Morris. Du Maurier, the elder of the two, was born exactly 16 days before Morris, on March 6, 1884, and he died but four days after him so that th^se two great men, who lived more than 02 years, were on the earth for exactly the same time, with the exception of less than three weeks, both being born in March, 1884, and dyin in October, 1806. Similarly, both Sir John Millais and the archbishop of Canterbury, who have died within month or two of each other, were born in 1829. It is one of the most striking events in the long history of the archbishops of Canterbury that the late arohbishop, who was one of Mr. Glad stone's appointments and afterward diverged from him in political opinions, should have been stricken while sitting in tho squire's pew of his old friend at Hawarden. It is a most merciful thing that Mr. Gladstone did not happen to be in church. To a man of his years the shock must have been most dangerous. What an archbishop of Canterbury Mr. Gladstone would have made himself! He would have rivaled even Dunstau or Beckot and not improbably proved the greatest prelate of them all.—New Orleans Times-Democrat.

Care For Your Shoes.

Never try to wear a shoe too small or that does not fit when you first put it on. There is no misery more nearly distracting than a shoo that hurts the foot. Never let your shoes get hard and dry. Don't lot thom run over. Don't let the hools run down. Don't dry a wet shoe till you have rubbed it well with a flannel cloth and then with vaseline. Never put near the stove. Half a peok of oats, kept in a small box, will be the very oheapest and best foot form for a wet shoe. Fill the shoe and shake the oats down, after having rubbed and oiled it, and set in a dry place to dry gradually. When dry, pour the oats back for further use. Do not "black upon blacking" more than, a week at a time. Taken wet rag and wash the shoe at least once a week and oil overnight to keep in good condition. Never handle patent leather until you have warmed it. Never wear rubbers with good shoes. Put on old shoes in wet weather. There is no part of the apparel of a lady or a gentleman which should be more scrupulously neat or that is so often soandalously neglected.

He Was Anxious.

"Your wife's just met with an accident, Wilkins," said a man who rushed into the grocery. "She ran over a dog while riding her bioyole, and they've carried her to the hospital."

The man sitting on the cracker barrel rose to his feet excitedly, and his feef turned pale, "Did you notice," he asked in trembling voice, "whether it was a liv er colored dog, with two white spots o. his fore shoulder, or not?"—Detroit Fre-

Beards.

Poisoning From Honey.

The old saying that every sweet has its bitter might be accentuated by the statement that honey sometimes contains the most active and dangerous poison. A case in point is related in a medical review as follows: A man and his wife ate honey. They took but a little, as they observed a burning sensation of the mouth and throat as soonji the honey was swallowed. Withinf] few minutes both were taken ill. Tb were nausea, severe pain and vomiti then a loss of consciousness, coldness the extremities, feeble action of heart and collapse. No pulse could detected. The wife remained insensi for several hours, but the husband was not entirely restored until the following day. Even then strength returned very slowly, and there was every indication of extreme exhaustion. A portion of the honey was treated chemically, and an extract was given to two cats to one a small dose and to the other a large dose was administered.

The small one produced partial exhaustion, relaxation of the voluntary musoles and general depression. The large one took effect almost immediately, producing relaxation, vomiting, purging, prostration and almost complete loss of control over the voluntary muBcles. The cat did not regain its normal condition for 24 hours.

A fairly thorough examination of the honey was made in order, if possible, to discover the nature of the poisonous element. Nopositive conclusion was arrived at, but the chemists were reasonably satisfied that the rhododendron and a few other plants of that class contained the objectionable substance. It is also Btated that plants belonging to the heath family have been by botanists looked upon with apprehension, for the reason that they have been suspect ed of harboring the toxic qualities which accounted for the cases of honey poisoning.—New York Ledger.

With Burgoyne at Saratoga.

In 1791 an officer who had served with Burgoyne wrote a volume, which he called "Travels Through the Interior Parts of America, In a Series of Letters." The writer was Thomas Anburey, captain of the Twenty-ninth regiment, who was with Burgoyne at his surrender. In Macmillan's Magazine there is an excellent notice of Captain Anburey's work, and the condition of the English soldiers is thus explained:

Burgoyne's army was steadily diminishing, while the oords round it were surely tightening. All day and night from tho surrounding woods whistled the bullets of the American riflemen. The soldiers were so inured to fire, we are told, that they ate and slept under it with scarcely any concern, while, to add terrors to the night, oarne the dreary howl of wolves, attracted by hundreds to such an unwonted banquet. The American sharpshooters were naturally in their element upon the steep sides of the wooded ravines that formed such a feature in every battle and skirmish. The longed for bayonet hung in idleness from the belts of the British in fantry—there was no room or plnoe for it. The soldiers had nothing but discipline and their native valor to make up for their immense inferiority in the use of the rifle to most of their foes, nor do we require Anburey's testimony to realize what a hopeless country was this in which Burgoyne's army now found themselves for the conduct of warfare tapon European systems. For ourselves, we have always marveled at the fashion in which the British soldier of that day, half starved and ridiculously olothed, fought his way through superior numbers of his own race as well armed as he, better marksmen and familiar with the wild woods which to him must have been strange and terrible.

The "Ears" of Insects.

The naturalists have not as yet been able to answer the burning question, Can bees hear? But their researches along that line have resulted in many queer discoveries. Simply because a bee has no ears on the sides of his head it is no sign whatever that he is wholly without some sort of an auditory nerve. This last assertion is proved by the fact that grasshoppers, crickets, locusts and flies all have their ears situated in queer places—under the wings, on the middle of the body and even on the sides of their legs. The common house fly does his hearing by means of some little rows of corpuscles which are situated on the knobbed threads which occupy the place which are taken up by the hind wings of other species of insects. The'garden slug or shell-less snail has bis organs of hearing situated on each side of his neck, and the common grasshopper has them on each of bis broad, flat thighs. In some of the smaller insects they are at the bases of the wings, and in others on the bottom of the feet —St Louis Republic.

Great Drankard*.

The question as to whether great men are ever drunkards must be answered in the affirmative, though argument is frequently made to the contrary. Cato was a hard drinker, while, in the language of one writer, old Ben Jonson was constantly "pickled." The poet Savage used to go on the hardest kinds of "tears,"and Rogers observed, after seeing his own statue, "It is the first time I bave seen him stand straight for many years." Byron says of Parson, the great classical scholar, "I can never recollect him except as drunk or brutal, and generally both." Keats was on a spree once that lasted six months. Horace, Plato, Aristophanes, Euripides, Alcasus, Soorates and Tasso of the old timers and Goethe, Sobiller, Addison, Pitt, Fox, Blackstone, Fielding, Sterne and Steele were all hard drinkers at intervals.— Pittsburg Dispatch.

Uttle Sister tf the Nation.

One of the most intersting personalities which the national congress of mothers brought to ItTew York recently was that of Miss Janet Richards of Washington. Little Sister of the Nation would far more accurately describe Miss Richards' peculiar form of activity. Her special province iB what she calls "Hilltop Talks of the World."

It is not in the sense of mothering her listeners that she talks it is merely as an enthusiastic leader, in a mental jaunt over our civilization, noting salient facts. "All questions of international conflict are primarily questions of geography" is her maxim. Congressional affairs come under her broad review and senators' wives are of those who peep at congress through the medium of her bright discourse.

When Li Hung Chang consented to re ceive Miss Richards and, after his habit* exhibited a determination to interviow rather than be interviewed, the olever little woman aroused his ouriosity by offering to tell him why so many Amer ican women remained unmarried. "Why?" demanded his Chinese high ness. "For one reason," replied Miss Rich ards, "they have so many other re sources. But the main cause is that they are rarely asked to marry by men who are their equals in intelligence."

And the url pondered afresh on the many sided American woman.—New York World.

Dress Interlining^.

The general tendency is to discard aM stiff interlinings on the newest gowns This does very well where one can afford a crisp taffeta silk lining in each new dress, but when this is not possible not a few women are protesting against the use of nothing but a soft finished percaline lining, with no sort of interlining added even as a facing. They argue, and justly so, that a skirt so fin ished has a lank, unstylish appearance (especially if of soft wool fabric) after the so recent vogue of interlined, undu lating skirts with a crisp flare and certain cachet wholly absent in a soft lined model whose folds or breadths fall limp around the feet like those of Quakeress. There are a number of fashionable modistes who liavo come to tho rescue in this matter. They make an underskirt nsarly as long as the dress skirt, employing orinoline, haircloth, moreen, etc., as may be preferred, for the foundation. This skirt can be covered with silk of sorno dark shade and if well cared for will last a long time. This skirt is gored on tho front ard sides, with a deep flounce at tho bottom, and the three or four shirred or box plaited ruffles at the back are run through the inoh wido hem at their edges with a single band of feather bone. Worn under the dress, all the slightly flaring effect of an interlined skirt is given.—New York Post.

The Army of Housekeepers.

As there are about the same number of women in this country as men, it will be seen that the proportion of the former at work at gainful occupations is smaller tiian is popularly supposed, only one in five being engaged at any work from which she derives a revenue, either in the form of wages and salary or profit in businesa This does not mean that the other four-fifths of the women are idle, for they probably work as hard as the men, but that the labor they do produces nothing in a financial way. They are the housekeepers of the country, &oing the sewing, cooking, nursing and other domestio service for most of the families. The prevalent belief that a majority of the women are typewriting, clerking or filling other positions from which they have crowded out the men is founded on error. The great majority of them arestill at home attending to their household duties, and only a very small proportion are out in tho world struggling with the other sex for a living.—New Orleans Times-Dem-ocrat.

The Latest In Watches.

Watches are worn smaller than ever, and, although an effort was made last season to revive the watch chain, the effort met with no response, for watches are still fastened to the bodice with a jeweled brooch, and the chatelaine proudly holds its own. In Paris and New York the latest fad is to have a watch in the form of a ball, thickly incrusted with emeralds or enameled with glistening green. Another watch, in fashion of a beetle, has a body of dull gold shining with gema You touch a spring, and the wings open as if to fly, disclosing a peep of the time of day. Among other iteais of new jewelry are the Russian girdles and belts of white or colored enamels, tricked out with gems either false or real, according to the price one can afford.

How It Used to Be.

Here is a story told by a relative of Lady Langford, the original of Lady Kew in Thackeray's "Newcomes:" "Lady Langford had only once seen her oousiu, Lord Langford, when became to visit her grandmother, and the next day the old lady told her she was to marry him. 'Very well, grandmamma. But when?' 'I never in my life heard such an impertinent question,' said the grandmother. 'What business is it of yours when you are to marry him? You will marry him when I tell you. However, whenever you hear me order six horses to the carricge you may know that you are going to be married.' And so it was."

New Suffrage Association.

The Brooklyn Woman Suffrage asso oiation bas just been incorporated. Its object, as stated in its charter, is to promote not only the political, but the industrial equality of women. The trustees of tbe organization for the first year are Mrs. Cornelia K. Hood, Mre. Anna (X Field, Mrs. P. D. Halkstaff, Mrs. J. O. Perry, Mrs. O. JEL Kary, Mrs. R. O.

Sprees at a Church Festival.

It is a custom of the country in Germany to get druuk at the consecration of a new church. Thiacustom has been regarded as uniovely and un-Christian by many influential Germans of the new school, most notably by Emperor William II, but still it remains unrefonned, and the comio weeklies do not tire of depicting the scenes in and out of the police court that follow the consecration sprees and fights. Some time ago the festival of a new church was celebrated in Oberringelheim, in the Rhine country. In anticipation of the usual trade in exhilarating liquors a saloon keeper who does business near the sacred edifice advertised thus in the Rhineland Observer:

Jacob Mullcr herewith pledges himself for a subscription price of 3 marks (75 cents) to serve every one of his guests with as much wine as he can drink on the occasion of the church consecration.

Inviting my friends and patrons to visit me in response to this request, I remain respectfully yours,

JACOB MTILLER.

Within an hour after the newspaper containing this advertisement appeared 89 citizens of little Oberringelheim bought subscription tickets from Muller. At the current price of ordinary loose wine in the Rhine country each of the 89 and their colleagues in this speculation had to drink 16 large glassfuls before he could begin to benefit by the subscription tariff.—New York Sun.

My Sin.

Stand in the public thoroughfares gazing at anything real or imaginary, and the dozens who gather round you will multiply soon into hundreds, aud, if you stick to it, perhaps thousands. A crowd as big as the street could hold encircled a sign painter the other day. They rallied in curious excitement aud dispersed in disappointed disgust. "My Sin, "in huge, flaming letters, was what the painter hud already printed. If ever a crowd was bent on anything, it was on tho discovery of what that sin was. They asked each other what it might bo and hazarded guesses, while the man laid by liis red paint pot and brought forth green instead.

What would the next word be? The crowd grew so excited that they called to the man, "What is it?" "Tell us," "Go ou," "Hurry," "Paint quicK if you won't talk," until it seemed be might grow too bothered to print any thing. But be did.

He printed out in small green letters, added to the gigantic "Sin" the sylla ble "gle," and when the sign was com plete it read, "My single aim is to sell at nominal profit."—Pearson's Weekly.

A bad case of rheumatism cured with 75 cents. Mr. Aug. Schenfle, St. Louis, Mo., writes: "Last week I had a very bad attack of rheumatism. Used three bottles of Salvation Oil which stopped the pain and cured me."

Julian Hawthorne.

Julian Hawthcrno is the son of Nathaniel Hawthorne. He was born in 1846, but he does not show his 50 years. When he was a boy of 7, some lady's romark on the fact that he was "weak chested" stung him, and he determined to make that comment impossible in the future. How woll he succeeded is evidenced by the fact that while he was in college his chest measure was 48 inches, and it is well known that the late John C. Ileenan, the pugilist, advised tho young man to enter tho prize ring. "Encouraging.

In tho islands of Now Britain a man must not speak to his mother-in-law. Not only is Hpeech forbidden to this relative, but she must be avoided, and if by any cha?'ce the lady is met the son-in-law must hide himself or cover his face. Suicide of both parties is the outcome if the rule is broken. One of the English missionaries tried to get the natives' ideas of an oath, and he found the most solemn asseveration among them was, "If I am not telling the truth, I hope I may touch the hand of my mother-in-law."—Pearson's Magazine.
