HERE is japanese recipe for keeping
meat fresh in hot weather: "Place it in
a clean porcelain bowl, and pour very
hot water over it 80 as to coverit Then
pour oil over the water. The air is thus
quite excluded and the meat preserved"
A GOOD, convenient and efiectual
remedy for stings of wasps, bees, and
other insects is simply to place a key
over the spot stung, press it hard into
the flesh, and when taken off the poison
will be ON the surface, where it can do no
harm. A thimble with closed top will
answer the purpose, but not quite so well.
CALVES do not inure an orchard, but
usually improve the fruit by picking up
the wormy fruit as soon as it falls, and
thus destroy the insect eggs. Calves
seldom are inclined to gnaw the bark or
to injure even small trees; they will
sometimes rub against the trees, but
could do no damage unless to those newly
set.
As a simple remedy for surface wounds,
such as cuts and abrasions Of the skin,
charcoal ishighly recommended. Take II
coal from the stove, pulverize it, apply it
to the wound and bind up with cloth.
The charcoal absorbs the fluids secreted
by the wound, resists or corrects putre-
faction, and also prevents the bandage
from irritating the flesh.

A talking robin is described in Hard
wicke's Scio'oe Gossip, by Mr. Alfred
Carpenter, who vouches for the truth of
the statement made by the owner Of the
wonderful bird. This robin was cap
turcd, while young, by pet dog, and
after recovering from his fright, was do
mesticated. lie not only initiated the
notes Of canary birds, but has learned to
whistle from his mistress. He has now
learned to speak the words, pretty
Robin" the pet name by which he has
long been called. 1t having been found
that he initiated those words, the form
ula was changed to Sweet Robin"
which he initiated very distinctly; and
he now utters, not quite so distinctly,
the phrase, Pretty little fellow" Mr.
Carpenter is a strong advocate Of the
theory that birds can communicate with
each other by language.

His remark suggested train ofreAection.
How /, we asked ourselves, ,ha, the
word "bitters" had grown to be syn
onym for gin, whisky, rum, and other
alchoholic stimulants, to which it was
applied Unfortunately. Bitters, we
reasoned, suggested the idea Of a health

something inyigorating to the system,
not an alcoholic irritant, full Of fusel

ultimate insanity, idiocy, or premature

bitter-sweet with vengeance. We

The Best Sewing Machine.

The best sewing machine for all purposes

Ii will do greater variety of work, with
less noise and physical exertion, than any

see no reason why one, with ordinary care,

This point We desire TO call especial at
tention TO. The Remington is made by the
Remington Arms Co., Of Ilion, New York,
whose arms are known the world over
They have the entire confidence of the gov.
ernments Of the world, for the reason that
they never turned out poor weapon, nor,
indeed, any but the very best. Quality Is
what they pride themselves upon, for il was
their capital at the beginning. The same
rigid honesty that they held TO in the manu-
facture Of arms, they have carried into their
sewing machine. They are made Of the best
material aitainable, and no labor or expense
il spared to finish them in such a way as 10
make them do a great deal more than is
claimed for them. The name Remington
is a sufficient guarantee 10 any one who
knows the Company.
The Company desire Agents in every

that the machine, because Of its excellence,
is good one TO handle, and of the Company
that their employees are certain of fair aud

Baden, and then carefully loaded his old
musket and followed upon Montaldi's
track.
In the levee room of the palace, old
Oerk Vankramer was arraigned for the
murder of the duke but the proceedings
were speedily interrupted by the
tumultuous shouts Of the populace with
out, and presently tall figure, wearing
an old fashioned uniform, strobe into the
hall, followed by a girl carrying musket
in her hand. All gazed upon this man
in amazement, and he took his place at
the head Of the council-board. He
smiled pleasantly upon them.
"You look amazed" cried Charles
Amadeus, for it was he; "you think,
perhaps, l am the spirit of Duke John,
come once more to sit amongst you in
this judgment hall. lam, indeed, arisen
from the grave of Wondering dishonor.
Oerk Vankramer, what return can make
you? Old man with these, my fathers
garments. l put on my fathers self"
He turned to the baffled conspirator.
Montaldi," he continued, "bear this
message to your friends, now crouching,
panther-like, upon the Rhine to spring
on my unguarded fold-say, here are not
millions to oppose them, but enough to
make the river-bank no slippery with
blood that no French foot shall climb
it,"
Montaldi hastily withdrew, glad to
have purchased his forfeited life so
cheaply.
Here is my preserver," continued the
duke, with beaming eyes, as he drew the
blushing Estelle to his side. "Here,
Oerk, is your child-the girl l would
have wronged. Mark the revenge Of
woman; she followed my intended assas-
sins, and when the sword of one was
aimed at my heart, she shot him dead at
my feet; his fellow flying, she led me
back to Baden, to honor, and to my peo-
pie. Worthy is she to be yppr daughter
worthier is she 30 be my Wife"
A shout Of approval greeted this an
nouncement. And so Estelle won ducal
coronet by her virtue and her courage I;
and the veteran, who was made chamber
lain Of the palace, lived to a green old
age, cheered by his child's happines and
grandeur.
