Then he kissed both children and went
into the pound again. And Nellie threw
her arms around Harrys neck and gave
him o good hug, and told him she should
love HIM forever, and made him promise
to come and see her and Prince; and they
parted.
'And that's the end of our Fourth-of

after, to the Jacklow family, as he finish
ed his breakfast and his story at the same

she had been eating on her bread and but

Harry pulled out his handkerchief to wipe

four bright new silver half dollars came
with it, and falling on the floor with a

Was FefmenteA Wine Usea By the Sa-

Among the resolutions passed at the wo-
mans Temperance Union recently held in
Baltimore. was one calling upon the chur-
ches to use none but unfermented wines al
the sacrament of the Lords supper. as
signing as a reason that ''fermsnied wine
was not used by the saviour on the occi-
sion of instituting the last supper. The
fermentation of grape juice consists IN the
conversion of the sugar into alcohol, car
bonIc acid gas beng given of IN the pro-
cess. The chemierl constituents Of starch.
sugar and alcohol are identical. but they
are arranged in different proportions.
When the saviour was eating and drink

as described in the fifth chapter Of Luke.

Casting Out Devils,

A wealthy farmer, much affected with
hypochondria. came to Langenau to con-
suit Michael Scuppach. better known by
the appellation of the Mountain Doctor.
81 have seven devils in my belly" said
he; mo fewer than seven"
There are more than seven," replied
the doctor, with the utmost gravity; eff
you count them right you will find eight. 3"
After questioning the patient concern
ing his case, he promised to cure him in
eight days, during which time he would
every morning rid him of one of his
troublesome inmates, at the rate Of a
Louis dor for each.
But" added he, as the last will be
more obstinate and difficult to expel than
the Others, shall expect two louis d'ors
for him"
The farmer agreed to these terms; the
bargain was struck, and the doctor, i'm
pressing upon all present the necessity Of
secrecy, promised to give the nine louis
d'ors to the poor of the parish. The next
morning the imaginary demoniac was
brought to him, and placed near kind Of
machine which he had never seen before,
by which means he received an electric
shock. The farmer roared out Justify.
There goes one!" said the doctor, with
the utmost gravity.
Next day the same operation was re-
peated. The farmer beloved as before,
and the doctor coolly remarked:
Another is Off "
In this manner he proceeded to the sew
enth. When he was preparing to attack
the last, Scuppach reminded his patient
that he now had need of all of his courage,
for this was the Captain of the gang, who
would make a more determined resistance
than any of the others. The shock was at
this time SO strong as to extend the demo-
MAC on the floor.
'NOw they are all gone!" said the doc
tor. and ordered the farmer to be put to
bed.
On recoveringhimself. the latter declared
he was completely cured, and paid the nine
louis d'ors with abundance o! thanks, and
returned in the best of spirits to the vii
lage Credible witnesses attest this extra
ordinary cure, which proves the acuteness
of the doctor, as well as the truth of Sol
onions proverb, that with fool we must
sometimes talk like fool.

Woman's Wages. :
From the New York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune.
Women complain. and very justly, Of
the discrimination made against them In
the matter of wages. They receive gener-
ally, as is well known. much less than
men, even when doing the same work that
men do. the fact of their sex being thus,
most ungallantly and unrighteously,
counted against them. Perhaps, the high
est price paid in the country proper to any
woman is In Boston. where, as school
teachers. they get $3.50 week the year
round. including ten weeks of vacation.
Statistics of the relative wages of the sexes
have been made up in number Of States
for 1918. In Massachusetts, the average
earnings per month for men was SSS37
for women S35.3 In Maine. men. So;
women, SIS. In Pennsylvania, men,
x4l.07; women. S3i.09 In Ohio, men,
$50; women, S44. In Michigan, men,
S5l 30: women, $3.50. In some States,
however. in Iowa. for example, the Gus
tom of allowing the same salary to men
and women for the same kind of work is
growing generally. In st. Louis, no dis
tinctiOn of sex Is made in respect TO teach
ers' paw When women do mems work
they receive equal wages. The California
legislature determined years since that
female teachers in the public schools
should have the same pay as male teachers
for Ike services Some of the Southern
States, and Arizona. Idaho and Nevada.

How the Gilt Edge Is Fat on Butter.
From the Y. Y. world.

From the n. I. Grid
The temptation to use coloring matter of
of some kind in butter-making during the
winter months, when butteris liable to be
off-colored. Is great and much Of this arti-
Gle, which gains purchasers atliberal pri-
ces, with its golden complexion varying
from the pale straw hue, preferred by some
to the deep prime yellow. favored by 9TH
ers, owes its success to dose of anottc. tu-
merck, saffron, marigold or other similar
substance Less and less white butter finds
is made than formerly, but because it has
been colored. Its makers argue that as it
is in all respects save color equally as good
with summer or grass made butter, there
is no objection to adding the coloring,
winch improves its appearance and there
by enhances its market value without 9TH
erwise affecting the article.
That butter coioring, wnen judiciously
prepared and employed, does not chang,
the flavor of the butter, has been proven
pies of colored and uncolored butter from
the same churning being able to detect
any difference excepting that of hue. But

to butter which has received its desirable
color from a proper management OF milk.
from good cows well fed, is quite another
matter. 1t stands to reason that cream
which in winter nearest approaches that
from grass-fed cows produces IN every re-
spect better class Of butter than white
butter can possibly be, however high col
ored artifcially. Managers of butter fac
tories understand this as do the dairy
maids OF only a few cows. who churn and
work butter with Old time appliances.
Hence while many butter makers use col
oring matter they are generally reluctant
to confess it: all prefer, when circumstan-
ces will admit of it, to obtain gilt-edged
butter by possessing. first, only such cows
as incline to yield rich milk, by feeding
these animals well, and last. but by no
means least, by getting the cream up as
quickly as possible after the milk Is drawn.
When, as Will sometimes occur, pale but
ter comes, all exertions to the contrary
notwithstanding, a little coioring Is EN-
ployed, bu. as the exception, not the rule.
in the artificial coloring of butter nothing
has perhaps given as much satisfaction as
as annotoine or the dry extract of anotto.
which having been prepared in liquid form
is added TO the cream at the be ginning Of

he can't help thinking about himself, and
