The old mill-stones arc all bein q
taken out and new steel rollers are sub
stltutcd In their places. Wheat by the
new process of flour-making, Is not
ground; it is cracked. IC passes
through Ave sets OF rollers, each roller
set closer than the former. Those
rollers are thirty inches long and ten
inches in diameter. Alter passing be-
tween each set Of rollers 1t Is "boited, ="
or sittcd, through cloth. The last rol-
lers have hardly anything but wheat
hulls and tho waxy germs which do
not crack up, but smash together. so
flour Is how cracked and dlsintegratcd
without grinding. The first rollers
pieces. The starchy substance which
rattles out drops through the cloth
sleeves or bolting-cloths. These SIX
pieces are broken between the next
rollers into thirty-six pieces. Then
the white starch-clumOsare sifted
out again, and tho thirty-six
pieces are passed between still tighter
rollers, winch crack them into PIC
pieces; another set Of rollers multiply
each OF these particles into six moro,
making them aggregate l ,20g. Another
set Of rollers screwed together with
Immense pressure makes 7,77G pieces.
Tho scientific miller says u grain Of
wheat Is finally cracked into TITS
pieces without being ground at ali.
This ID the Hungarian process. The
germ of kernel OF wheat Is a waxy
substance not lit to cat. Between stones
this germ grinds into tho flour and
damages IL. BY the new process of the
Hungarian rollers this germ is tlaten-
ed out and it Is bOlted out. However,
1t is finally ground up with tho debris
on stones TO make low grade flour,
which we sell in Rotterdam at 81 so
per barrel.

pOll ana tho COn8tnOlen,

A few days ago, Tom Hand, a con-
stable Of st Louis, desiring to seize
$20 worth Of goods, on an execution
against Mrs. Morton, could find moth
Ing but Mrs. Morton's pet poll-parrot,
WHICH was psrched away up on WIN
dow sill. '9iULwas about to leave with
empty hands, when t5lf.,,YalEsGHot sang,
out: Hllloa! Hilloa! HilloaH" Tom
looked up and saw tho bird. "Here's
something" said he to himself, "that's
worth $40, lll hitch on to iS." He
reached up to grasp Poll, hut Poll
would not be seized, and peckcd at
him, and sang: GLANDS of! Hands
Off! l'll call the pcelcrs -
'I'm constable," said Tom; sI've
got the papers here, and you can call
who you please"
"Durn the papers," SAID Poll. "Po-
lice police!''
Tom made another grab, and this
time no caught Poll by the throat, ana
carried her ovor TO court. When he
got there, he put her in basket. AS
soon as Poll's throat was free again,
She called him all manner of names,
and ended each sentence with: "You
oan 60 to Chicago; you're no gentle
manI'
Poll had begun tc give tho court, as
we'll as the constable, q piece OF her
mind, when Mrs. NJ orton came in and
paid the $40 sued for. She said she
would sooner pay $40, then lose her
Poll. Then she picked Poll up and
kissed her, and carried her away, and
as they went out Of ccuIt, Poll cried
with a loud voice: ooh, tho loafers :;
oh, tho dirty loafers - Constable
Carroll, his deputy, and all the other
officers Of .he court, say that Mrs.
Morton's parrot Can "cuss" louder
and more to the point, "than any man

The Trade Winds,

The earth turns on its axis from west
to east, and with it rotates daily tho
envelope Of tho atmosphere. Tho volo-
city of rotation at the equator ia some
thing over 1000 miles an hour; at
thirty degrees distance 1t is about 100
miles less. In higher latitudes it is
still less, at the poles nothing. There
foro, whenever the air moves north or
sonth on tho surface Of tho earth. 1t
will carry with 1t less or greater vc]o
city Of the rotation than tho place 1t
passes over, and will turn in an easter
~ or westerly wind, according as it
approaches or reduces from the equa-
tor. III the region Of the SUMS great
Q st heat, the air, rarltled, and lighted,
Is continually rising, and cooler cur
rents come In on both sides to take tho
place Of the ascending volume. As
these side currents como from a dis
tance Of about thirty degrees from tho
equator, they have at starting, an
eastward velocity of many miles an
hour less than the localities they will
eventually reach. Consequently they
Will appear to lag behind In all the
course Of, their progress to the equator
that Is, they Will havo a westerly
motion united with their north and

Certain ooncretions found within the
internal organs Of animals, suoh as the
heart and pancreas (the sweetbread of
The butcher), have been supposed to
possess peculiar powers as antldotes to
the bite OF rabid dogs. and this belief
still prevails in the South and South
west. 1t is a very old superstition, and
Professor Charles Rico, in letter to
tho Medical Record, traces its origin
back to the earlier period of the middle
ages. These 6czoar stones have been
landed down IN some families from
one generation to another and kept
for emergencies. The word 6ezoau,
from Persian 6ad.i zahr, means 1.-The
wind or breeze OF poison," Indicating
that the poison is waited away by its
influence. Tue method of using the
remedy Is by application to tho I'M jured
part. When it is considered that
large number Of those bltten by rabld
animals suffer no Ill consequences of
any moment, it Is easy to soc how su CHI
a supposed antidoto might be rega rded
with great veneration, since those who
applied 1t and remained free from
rabies would incorrectly attribute an
exemption Of the disease to the use of
the remedy.

stage nou,es Abandoned.

Placer and El Dorado counties, while
remarkable for the picturesque ruins
OF mining camps innumerable, have
also the less enviable distinction of
containing two of the worst thief-ln-
tested stage roads In California. These
two roads each start from Auburn, the
first running twelve miles to Gren-
wood, in. El Dorado county, and
then tour miles further on to
Georgetown; tho second keeping in
Placer county anu calling at Todd's
Valley (twenty miles), Forest Hill
ttwenty'three miles), Michigan Bluffs,
tthirtY miles, Since 1882 Wells, Fargo
.& Co., have kept offices at these various
towns snd donerthe bulk Of the express
business, there. The attacks upon the
stage coaches and the plundering OF
the treasure boxes have always been
Legend of the road, but during the past
ten years these Interruptions to sale
travelling have become so frequent that
finally, and in desperation, Wells,
Fargo q Co., have closed their offices
at all lhe places mentioned excepting
Of course Auburn. What the losses OF
the company have amounted to during
this time may be Judged Of by the re.
port OF the last six months. On Au-
gust the coach on the Forest Hill
road was stopped and 81, ,030 taken. On
the 22d OF September the highwaymen
tailed In thoir calculations, for al
though the treasure was thrown down,
the maskers had their trouble for their
pains, the box being empty. On No
yember lst The coach on the George
town road was stopped and 5000 alb
stracted, and recently the same coach
yielded $500. A little "accident" hap
pened Ola the Georgetown ROAD also on
May 18th, which had its unlocked for
results. A passenger was robbed of
watch, and last November it was re-
covered from Sharp, one of the most
daring of the gang, on his arrest at
Aurora for making too free with the
Bodle stage. Summing up these losses
1t Will be seen that bullion to the value
l,930 wentlnto ohighwaymen's pock-
cts; of the added expense attending the
employment Of detectives, at least,
$5,0oO haYe came out Of the pockets of
the company. That this amount Is far
In excess Of the profits goes without
saying. Wells, Fargo & Co., regret
taking u step which cannot but serious
ly affect the business interests of all
those towns, but it is In justice to them
selves that the step ls taken, anel really
as oelnR the only means OF self-protec-
tlon. BY every means in their power
they have cndeavored to put down rob.
berry detectives bave lived on The road,
and that they have been successful in
their efforts is largely due to the apathy
OF those who should have been most
active in tho suppression of dis
grace, for it is to the listle ssness Of the
Inhabitants of these very towns that
The III success met with by tho com.
pany's tf'cers is by them largely as

fcctly fresh eggs (not the "yolks"
only, as directed by Francatelli, but
tne e1hote or the egg) III porcelain

olate as above directed, you may some
times try another plan and see which

You may first make your sugar into a
syrup and dissolve your chocolate In
this syrup. In case you adopt this
method, put tho chocolate and the
syrup on the tre long enough to come
toa boiling point, but do not allow to

the vanilla, as provided before, and
