Great ceremonies are necessary to get train OFF
In Germany.
When all is ready bell rings,
Then another bell rings.
Then the engine whistles, or rather toottoot-
toots gently.
Then the conductor tells the station master tbat
all are ready.
Then the station master looks placidly around
and says "So"
Then the conductor shouts "FsragP interrOga.

That is, unless there Is a belated fat marlin

newly married man, who evidently needs
discipline, thus discourses: "A woman is handy
thing to have about the house. She does not cost
any more to keep than you'll give ber and she'll
take great interest in you. If you go out at
night, she'll be awake when you get home, and
then she'll tell you all about yourself, and more
too. or course she will know where you've been
and what kept you out so late, and will tell yoUs
yet right after she gets through telling you that,
she will ask you where you have been and what
kept you so late. And after you tell her, and she
won't believe you, you mustn't mind that: and
II, after going to bed, she says she hadn't closed
her eyes the whole night, and then keeps up the
matinee two hours longer and won't go 10 sleep
when she has chance, you mustn't mind that,
either it's her nature"

GIVE YOUR GIRLS A CHANCE.

Experience is valuable part Of an education.
Girls should early learn to purchase materials for
their own clothing. Parents can advise them at
the start, but 1t will be good iplan for girls to
learn to rely on their own judgment, The pur.
chsseS can be talked over after they are made.
Let your daughter, with little advice, cut up a
few yards of calico and make aprons and dresses,
bed-qults even II there is little waste and some
poor fits. She will be likely to see her own mis-
takes and profit by them. Let her make some
cakes and bread. and brOll some meat and pop
some corn, no matter If she has to throw some
into the swill pail. 1t Is better to make few
small mistakes while young in acquiring an ed
ucation, than to grow up without experience
They must learn some time, or make great blum
ders during good portien Of their lives, when
left to rely on themselves. In many respects
children are not trusted enough. They are
"bOssed" too much.

ABOUT BUTTER.

Fresh butter consists of about eghty.three per
cent of pure butter and sixteen of milk and but
ter. The former can be separated by melting the
whole in long tube; after a time the butter
proper comes to the top. Some Of our best butter
makers claim that from the time the milk leaves
the COW till the butter graces the table, milk,
cream and butter should be near the temperature
of 600 F. Boussingault prescrlbes the proper
temperature for ehurning to be 500 for sweet
cream, $40 for sour, and $40 for milk. About one
fourth Of the total amount of butter globules
which exist In the cream escape collection which
accounts for the rich taste of buttermilk.
Winter Is the time when 1t is most difficult to
produce good colored butter and free from
streaks, and the harder to come judicious feed
ing will help this very much. 1t will pay well,
with some simple apparatus to steam or cook the
food, with little salt through 1t; they will eat
up everything greedily. A lump Of rock salt
should always be where the COWS .can have ac-
cess to it,,
An old butter.maker claims that where turnipa
have been fed to milch cows and the strong taste
incorporated in the milk, then when the milk
is put into the pans to every eight quarts Of milk
mix one Of boiling water. This will annihilate
the taste of the turnips and facilitate The rising
and the churning OF the cream. But do not at
tempt to put such butter up for keeping; use 1t,
or sell 1t for immediate consumption.

THE County Commissioners, after a

awarded damages in a dozen or so of

BoRRIoBooLA CHA.

a stranger preached last Sunday
And crowds Of people came,
To hear twO-hOurs' sermon
With misunderstanding name,
Twas alhabOut some heather
Thousands Of miles afar,
Who live In land Of darkness,
Called "BorrlOboola Gha.n
So well their wants he pictured
That when the plate was passed,
Each listener felt his pocket,
And goodly sums were cast
For all must lend a shoulder
10 push the rolling car
That carried light and comfort
To "Borrloboola Cha"
That night their wants and sorrows
Lay heavy on my soul,
And In deep meditation
took my morning stroll,
TIL something caught my mantle
with eager grasp and wTd
And looking down In wonder
Isaw little child.
A pale and puny creature
In dirt and rags iorlorn,
What could she want9 questioned,
Impatient TO be gonc
With trembling voice she answered;
"We live Just down the street,
And mamma she's dyln'
And we've nothing left to eat"
Down In the wretched basement
with mold upon the walls,
Thro' whose half buried windows
Gods sunshine never falls;
Where cold, and want, and hunger,
Crouched near her rs she lay,
Iiound fellOw-creatme
Gasplng her life away.
A chair, q broken table,
A bed Of dirty straw,
A hearth all dark and ireless-
But these scarcely saw,
For the mournrul sight before me.
The sad and sck'nIng show
Oh, never had | pictured
A scene so full of woe.
The lamlshed and the naked,
The babes that pined for bread,
The sQualld group that huddled
Around the dying bed
All this distress and sorrow
Should be in lands afar;
Was l suddenly transplanted
To "BorrlObOOla Gha?n
All mol the poor and wretched
Were close beside the door,
And had passed them needless
A thousand times belOre,l
Alas the cold and hungry
Imet with every day.
While all my tears were given
To the suffering far away
There's work enough for Christians
In distant lands we know;
Our Lord commands His servants
Through all the world to CO.
Not only to The hedthen-
This was his charge to them:
"Go, preach the word, beginning
FlrStat Jerusalem
o, Christian, God has promised
Whoeer to thee has given
A cup Of pure cold water
Shall find reward in heaYen.
Would you secure the blessing,
You need not seek 1t far
Go, find in yonder hoyel

half the world know how to estimate.
Their sweet little daughter, aged four
years, died last Sunday morning and

observe and welcome their RETURN
Her little lips were always ready with
the kiss of affection. Her intellect
was brilliant and all her ways were
lovely. But we need not add. Few

skies, and spared her the pangs and

The Fat Mems Convention.

We can see some pleasure, if no rea-
son, in the converting of a baby show,
but we confess that we could never sec
the slightest cause. reasonable or
otherwise, for fat mems convention,
unless it be the fact that misery loves
company. For fifty or hundred men,
whose several weights range from two
hundred to three hundred pounds, to
hold convention simply because of
so much avOrdupois, is absurd to say
the least. 1t becomes doubly so when
we rfect that oesity is disease. What
would we think of as many persons
emaciated by consumption holding a
convention to compare their relative
weights. There is but one ground
upon which we would another fat
mems convention, and that is that they
will meet to discuss the merits of
Aliens Anti-Fat, the only known
remedy for obesity. 1t is safe and re-
liable. Sold by druggists.
