three hours he did not make his
appearance, and the Alston party

How 10 Keep neat

A farmers wife wrote from Venice,
Cayuga county, New York, telling
the farmers club how to keep meat
fresh long time: "Thero is no

families should eat 80 much salt
pork, leaving all tho fresh meat to
the Inhabitants Of cities and villages
whom the following method will. keep
meat fresh for weeks, even in the
warmest weather. know, for l have
used it for n'ore than ton years. AS
soon as the animal heat is out of The
meat slios it up ready for cooking.
Prepare u large jar by soalding we'll

teacupful Of salt, cover the bottom
Of the jar with a sprinkling Of salt
and pepper. Put down a layer OF
meat, sprinkle with salt and pepper,
the same as if just going to tho table
and continue in this manner until the
jar is full. Fold cloth or towel
and wet it in strong salt and water,
IN which little saltpetre is dissolved.
Press the cloth closely over the meat
and set in cool place. Be sure and
press tho cloth on tightly as each
lsyer is removed, and your meat
will keep for months. 1t is good
plan to let the meat lie over night,

The Floods In France.

The story of the groat floods in
France is rendered more terrible by
every successive account. One re.
port states that more than 100000
people have boen made homeless and
destitute by this swift and wide.
spread calamity. Throughout
France great efforts are being made
to holp the sufferers, and all Europe
will probably share in the good
work. In regard to tho lato disas-
ters, it is perhaps somo consolation
that the overflow of river banks, as
illustrated by the Milo and tho Miss.
issippi, is usually succeeded by sea-
sons of extraordinary fertility. If
this should provo to DO the case with
the great frcshots in France and
Bohemia, it may at least prove tho
prevention of future famine there.
John Condor, a laborer, of Chicago
while at breakfast on Tuesday, drew
a revolver and shot across the table at
his wife killing her instantly. Con-
don then shot himself, inilioting n
wound which will doubtless provo
fatal. He stated to reporter that
he was perfectly conscious of the ex-
tent of his crime, aud that he had
just cause for it. Jealously is sup.
posed to have been tho cause. Con-
don was sixty-6ye and his wife forty
years old. a. .
