A practical physician-Dr. J. W. Dav-
export, of Dallas, Texas-has obtained
patent which prOmi<es to be of great
usefulness. 1t is simply fluid for keep
ing all kinds Of fruits, vegetables and
meats, fresh and sweet. The aim of the
chemist has been to discover the ingre-
dients of a pickle which would arrest the
process of decomposition and eXtinguish
the germ of decay of all animal and vege-
table substances, without impairins their
flavor or imparling to them any injurious
effect. 1t is simply pickle of the NEST
inexpensive sort, costing less than brine
or vinegar, in which any meat or vege-
table may he kept in open vessels, sub
merged for months, and, when taken out,
will be found as pure and fresh as when
the vegetables came from the garden or
the meat from the butchers stall. This
pickle may be furnished and prepared at
cost Of four cents per barrel. The
pickle is so nearly tasteless and paIatable
az to demonstrate its inOcuOUsness, and
vet, from the specimen we saw yesterday,
green corn which had been immersed in
it for twelve months, when boiled, could
not be distinguished from the corn which
had been gathered that morning. Nut
ton and pOrk-chOps, and even tat paba-
bottes placed in this pickle weeks ago,
when subjected to heat, had preserved
all their original freshness and flavor

More Drainage in Holland.

Great success attends the enormous
drainage and canal operations of the
Hollanders. The two undertakings usu-
allv 90 hand in hand, so that, As in the
case Of the new canal from Amsterdam
to the sea. while the lands recovered by
drainage are of enough value TO reduce
the total cost Of the enterprise by nearly
= third there Is a further advantage
secured by the unity of the plan, since
the process Of constructing tie canal
was contrived so As to facilitate the actual
york of drainage. That canal having
cut off and secured the drainage of a
portion of the Zuyder he, a project for
another canal, to drain the southern part
of that body Of water, is now before the
chamber of deputies. The new canal is
Intended to give AmstC rdam a direct
waterway to the Bhenish provinces. The
area to be drained IS somewhat less than
four hundred thousand acres. lhe cost
of the undertaking, for which 1t Is pro-
po,cd 10 obtain government loans, Is
estimated at nearly $50, 100000.

THE THREE mORsESES.

Three hOrsemen halted the inn before,
Three hOrsemen entered the OaKen door,
And loudly called for the welcome cheer
hat was wont 10 greet the traveller here.
Good woman" they cried, as the hostess eah9,
buxOm, rosy, portly old dame
Good woman, hoW's your wine and beer?
And how's your little daughter dear?''
MY house is ever supplied with cheer,
But my daughter lieth upon her bier!
A shadOw over the hOrsemen fell;
Each wrapped in thoughts he could never tell,
And silently, one by one they crept
To the datkened room where the maiden slept.
1he golden hair was Tipp ing low
over a forehead pure Snow,
And the little hands closely pressed,
'ClasP1ng cross to the pulseess breast.
81 loved thee ere the death-ChilI lay
On thee, sweet child, - and one turned away;

'HRdst thou learned to love me- and lived to we'd

he third one cried rs he kiS5ed nCr brow

Then silently out from the oaken door,
Three EOTsemen went to return

Weeping Trees.

Every place should have at least one
droc ping tree, as much for its intrinsic
beauty as for the effect it produces
when grown near other forms. For this
purpose the weeping beach possesses an
Individuality peculiarly its own. Not
90 pretenUious, perhaps, as the preceding,
but with a graceful dropping Of the more
slender branches the weeping linden
stands next in the list. Where they
will flourish the weeping elns and weep
ing mountain ash are very handsome,
and the old-fashioned weeping willow,
especially when in the vicinity OF water,
is often a valuable assistant for creating
a beautiful picture. For small sizsd
yyeepers we would suggest the following,
all of which are useful, and, in fact, IN
digpensable to the landscape gardener.
The thorn. grandidentata, poplar, XII
marpock willow, dwarf cherry, soPhoFa

/ the carmon ash are stiff and formal IN

Generosity of NAPOLEON.

During the campaign OF the great Ma
poleon Bonaparte in Italy, in 1895, an
incident occurred which showed that he
could be generous as well as stern and
brave.
It was during the night after the re-
pulse OF the Austrians at ArcoIa, a small
borough in Lombardy, that the general
was walking through his camp and taking
his survey As he was on his wav he
noticed a sentinel asleep. Instead of
waking him, he took the soldiers musket
lightly from him, and, going on
guard, waited till some one should re.
iieve him. After a time the soldier woke
up. Great was his horror and surprise
on seeing the general under whom he was
serving pacing up and down the beat :
H exclaimed, with terror, Bonapartel
l am lost!"
The good~natured general replied,
smiling, ''Be easy, my friend; you are a
brave man, and deserve some sleep. But
next time w ait for a better chance"
