to be recommended as you thereby drlVe
out the volatile oils which give the flavor
or aroma.
In carving milk to the factories, keep
the nioht and morning milk in separate
cans Sometimes in hot weather it will
be necessary to cool the milk at night.
This can ordinarily be done by exposure
in open vessels to the night air.
When the cream rises on the night milk
turn on the morning milk and it will wash
the cream in or you may leave out the
nights milk, using only the cream, which
is the Stilton method.

connect Herewith the manufacture Of but
ter; the average product of the factories
is better than the butter of private dairies.
If, however, no use was made of the
skinned milk there, it might be more
profitable to make butter in September
and afterward at home. in order that it
might be consumed there.
In churning, the best results are OBJ
tanned by yielding pressure rather than
by friction; and therefore a dash churn is
better than q rotary churn, as the tendency
of the latter is to crush the globules INTO
grease With rotary churn OF small
dash, you get two or three gatherings OF
globules from one mess. The dash should
be three quarters the diameter OF the
churn, without any holes in 1t, and concaye
on the bottom, so that when 1t tails upon
the cream it will be separated from it by
an air cushion, which will prevent too
rough breaking of the globules. By this
method you cannot get Il second churnln2
from the same cream. When the butter
comes, don't lite tie dash out; put in cold
water and gather the granules together,
thus saving all working out of the butter
milk by hand, and only kneading enough
to get the salt in. Churn at 50 deg. with
the cream a little sour, about 80 strokes to
the minute, and butter will come in an
hour. In q creamery, dashers OF different
sizes have been tried, and while one three
quarters the diameter OF the churn brought
butter in an hour, one half that size re-
quired more than two hours, and then but
ter was found in churning the buttermilk.
As a dash of large size will work hard, it
will not be best to force it entirely through
the cream and in all large dares some

ticiently recovered to be brought to his
mothers house, and still longer time
elapsed before the name of Miss S. passed

You remember" he said to me one
night, breaking a long, sad silence-''you
remember the strange and persistent warn
ings received by Christine-warnings to
which she paid SO little heed. to which we
were all so shamefully indifferent-but
you do not know" he continued, "all the
details of the tragedy. | must unseal my

In vain did beg my poor friend to wait
until he was stronger
"I shall never be stronger" he exclaim-

murmured, as convulsive shudder shook
the bench on which he lay, "that Christine
was killed instantly-but you do not know
that | was not at her side at the moment
OF the accident; | was in the smoking car,
and wasno myself hurt at that time. My
injuries We're received atterward, from the
tali of q burning beam Of the station house.
When Miss S. was found the body was de-
capitated; the guillotine itself might have
done the drerdful deed. In my anguish

But when a plying woman's hand yelled
with tender reverence the pale. tranquil

Reverently opened it, he unfolded deli
cate handkerchief In the corner was the
coronet, under it the cipher-all as had
been toreshadowed to Miss S.
"Yes," said Pills trembling voice,
'.here it is. That day we had noticed and
admired q French woman, evidently of
rank, whose seat was near ours, and she
it was who completed the dreams fulfil

LAS Phil uttered these words his sister
entered the room with peremptory injunc-

Il was only permitted to clasp his hand
in warm sympathy, and to say good night
to him. as now do to you all" And the
speaker hastily LETT the room.
The fire gave one expiring flicker. The
pale moon, shining through drift in the
hurrying clouds, glanced in at the small
windows
Silence claimed US for her own. The
strong emotion of our friend had made its
mark. We all wished ourselves safe in
our beds. AT last one lover of Shakes

Starlight.
BY CELIA THAXTER.

The chill, sad evening wind of winter blows
Across the headland, bleak and bare ana high,
Rustling the thin, dry grass that sparsely grows,
And shivering whispers like 4 human sigh.
The sky is thick with stars that sparkle keen,
And great Capella in the clear northeast
Rolls slowly by the cloudless heaven serene,
And the stern uproar Of the sea has ceased.
A feeting moment, and the earth seems dead
So still, so sad, SO lonely, and so cold!
Snow-dust beneath me and above my head
Star-dust in blackness, like thick-sprinked
gold.
The stars of fire, the tiny stars Of ice.
The awful whirling worlds in space that wheel
The dainty crystals delicate device
One hand has fashioned both-and I, who
knee
Here on this winter night, 'twiXt stars and snow
AS transient as snowflake and as weak,
Yearning like all my fellow men to know
His hidden purpose that no voice may speak
In silent awe watch his words; l see
Mighty Capela's signal, and know
The steady beam of light that reaches me
Left the great orb full seventy years ago.
A human lfe-time Reason strives in vain
To grasp at time and space, and evermore
Thought, weary grown and bat1ed, must again
Retrace its slow steps to the humble door
VI WlSllul pdt1eHce, lIlefc W WdltH anu w NdiL
Devoutly, till at last Deaths certain hand,
Imperious, opens wide the mystic gate
Between US and the future He has planned
Yea, Death alone But shall Death conquer all
Love fights and pleads in anguish of despair
Sooner shall great Capella wavering fall
Than any voice respond to his wild prayer.
And yet, what fire divine makes hope to glow
Through the pale ashes OF our earthly fate?
Immortal hope, above all Joy, below
All depths of pain wherein we strive and wait
Dull is our sense; nearing we do not hear,
And seeing, see not; yet we vaguely feel
Somewhere is comfort in the darkness drear,
And, hushing doubts and fears, we learn to
kneel.
Starlight and silence. Dumb are sky and sea,
Silent as death the awful spaces lie;
Speechless the bitter wind blows over me,
Sad as the breathing of human sigh.

1t is night now, and here is home Gath
cred under the quiet roof, elders and chill
dren lie alike at rest. In the midst Of 4
great peace and calm, the stars look out
from the heavens. The silence is peopled
with the past sorrowful remorse for sins
and shortcomings, memories passionate
ioys and griefS rise out of their graves,
both now alike calm and sad Eyes, rs
shut mine look at me that have long ceas-
ed to shine. The town and landscape
sleep under the starlight, wreathed in au
tumn mists. Twinkling among the houses,
a light keeps watch, here and there, in
what may be sick chambers. The clock
tolls sweetly in the silent air. Here is
night and rest. An awful sense of thanks
makes the heart swell as | pass to my
room through the sleeping house, ana feel
as though a hushed blessing were upon IT,
