\ good constitution is important.
This may be judged of by the lustre
of the hair and the brilliancy of the
eyes and horns. Constitution depends
mostly on the heart and lungs. the
size of which may be determined by
the depth and breadth of the th,iax.
They should have a good development,
enough to secure health and vigor, but
the lungs, in particular, should not be
excessively large. When very large,
they burn up,by increased respiration,
the fat-forming material. BY the ex.
traordinary energy they create. they
induce unusual exercise and motion
which make rapid waste of tissue
and rapid assimilation to repair it
and thus divert nutriment from pro

Butter in France.

From the N. Y. Tribune
If our dairymen need spur, an
eye opener, lesson which speaks
volumes in three words, here is one
at the head of the article. Butter is
actually brought from France and sold
by New York dealers. And this is
thus because there is an actual search

in an attractive shape for small con-
SumerS.
When we know that one dairyman
gets ST. Is a pound for his products.
another ST., and another Is cents the
the year round, at the dairy door, it
is easily seen that it will pay to bring
butter across the ocean from France,
if it is only good and shapely enough
to suit the fas,idious purchasers who
will have something nice, whatever
it may cost. All this butter is made
from choice cows, choicely fed on
clean, sweet food the milking is done
in the cleanest manner. The milk is
handled as carefully as though it were
nectar, the cream is churned with
clock and thermometer, the butter i:
worked with skill, and is make w
in shapely cakes, which do not require
to be cut when brought to the table
Compare, then, this cake-hard, gol
den yellow sweet, fragrant and tempt

keg, and smells of old age and rancidi

married. But George, in his visits to
jefferson City, got acquainted with
worthless, degraded woman, and with
her started off on the ssundergrOund
railway for Kansas. Sophia lived
with her master until the war set her
free. Her husband was recaptured,
brought back to jefferson and sold by
his master and sent to the cotton fields
Of the South.
George Duncan says he has always
regretted bitterly his runaway scrape
with that worthless white woman, but
when he was betrayed by her when
near the Kansas line, and was taken
back and sssold South he gave up all
hope of ever seeing his wife and child
again. He was taken to the cotton
fields Of Mississippi, and finally trans
ferred to Louisiana, where ne has
lived for the past eleven years. lie
says he has been saving money all the
time with a view Of coming north to
seek his family. and this year he says
he raised several bales of cotton, the
proceeds of which have enabled him
to prosecute his search for his long
lost wife and child. He went first to
Jefferson City, and found that his wife
had disappeared from there during the
war.
He searched every town along the
the Missouri river from Kansas City
to Jefferson City, and felt confident
that he would find his family some.

The Kitchen.


The following excellent advice about
kitchen.and how to keep them clean,
appeared not long since in Scribner's
Monthly:
The first consideration in a cooking
room as cleanliness. Tried by this
test pavered walls are an abomination
in such Il place. You can not darken
this room through parts of the day in
summer. is you do others, and conse-
quently fly specks will be numerous.
These walls absorb the kitchen odors
and steam and the smoke rests loving
ly upon them. When these things get
into the house, they are sure to insin-
uate themselves into the paper on the
walls. Hardtinished walls are more
clearly. for they can be washed but
unless they are finished better than
the kitchens we have seen, they soon
look dirty. and this is the next wors,
thing to being so; for such finishing
soon becomes discolored and
"splotchy." There is nothing that
will compare with the old. fashioned
whitewash pure and simple. Ths
color wash may give the walls pref
tier tint. but it must be put on by /;
practiced hand. whereas whitewasl
may be applied by any one. Whenever
dirty spot makes 1t appearance.
1t is true unpracticed hands 90 no
apply the brush as evenly rs could b,
wished, but few streaks more or les
don't matter we can all see streak
are white and clean. Don't have thu
woodwork painted: don't have any
thing painted. Things in a kitchen
will get soiled. 1t follows they mus
be Cleaned. Soap is foe before whicl
paint invariably quits the field. Yer
soon the color will be off in spots. an
nothing less than repainting the Who'll
room will ever make it look clea
again. 1t is stiY more objectionabl
to leave the wood in its rative state
1t requires frequent scrubbing to kee
