Things Learned by Experience.

If your fire is low throw on a table
spoonful of salt, and it will help it very
much.
A little ginger put into sausage meat
improves the flavor.
In icing cake dip the knife frequently
in cold water.
In boiling meats for soups use cold wat
er to extract the juice. If the meat is
wanted for yltselfs fsalone, plunge in boiling
water at once.
You can get bottle or barrel of oil off
any carpet or woolen stuff by applying
dry buckwheat plentifully and faithful
ly: never put water to such grease spot
or liquid of any kind.
Broil steak without sailing; salt draws
the juice in cooking; it is desirable to pre-
serve 1t if possible; cook over hot fire,
turning frequently, soaring on both sides;
place on platter, salt and pepper to the
taste.
Beef having tendency to be tough
can be made very palatable by stewing
very gently for two hours; pepper and
salt, taking out about pint of liquid
when done, and letting the rest boil into
the meat. Brown the meat in the pot.
After taking up make gravy of a pint of
liquid saved.
A small piece of charcoal in the pot
with piece of cabbage removes the
smell.
Clean oil cloths with milk and water;
brush and soap will ruin them.
Tumblers that have had milk in them
should never be put in hot water.
A spoonful of stewed tomatoes in the
gravy of either roasted or fried meats is
an improvement.

Norwalk has perhaps the most eccen-
trio character in the State. His name is
George Noulton and his oddity consists
in his taste for many slippers, CATERS and
sooes, of which he has the largest collec-
ton in the world. He occasionally buys
gay pair of boots or bright colored
gloves. His assortment has cost him
hundreds Of dollars, and is SO large that
hundreds of dollars, and is so large that
he has shoes of different color for every
day in the year. His father was a sue
cessful merchant, and George inherited
from him fortune of many thousand
dollars, SO ample that it brings him an
income of $50 month. For many years
Moulton and his slipper museum have
been quartered at the st. Charles Hotel
in Norwalk. He dresseslvery plainly and
economically, wearing sack-coat Of
rather cheap material and pantaloons cut
short so as to show off his shoes to better
advantage. About once a week he takes
trip to Cleveland to see if anything new
in the line of shoes can be found. Some
times he wears pair of gilt CATERS;
again he will don pink and a sky blue
shoe, and thus he changes his foot wear
to suit his singular fancy. He never ap-
pears at church save when he has pur-
chased new pair of CATERS, and never
rides when he can walk.-CleUeland Pen

A Detroit, Mich, doctor, who has vac
cinated over 500 persons, reports many
odd experiences with subjects under the
lancet. Not more than two men out of
ten have it done in straightforward way.
They hesitate, make inquiries and post
pone it for few days. One insisted up
on being strapped fast to his chair while
the operation was performed. Another
wanted to take chloroform. A negro was
one day seen to walk past the Office sever
al times, and the doctor finally stepped to
the door and asked him if he wanted to
be vaccinated.
"Deed, sab, dat's what cum for" he
replied, "but de very mint l. turned dat

rule the men, when lanced, cry
'Woosh!" or "Thunder!" The women cry
Ouch! generally, but now and then one

Our town has been thrown into a
feverish state of excitement by a crazy
man running at large here. He broke
into the Congregational church and
took lamps, mats and bible, broke and
tore them to pieces and then buried
part of them close to the church. He
then went down the river to Hearts,
and George and Mr.. Winter tried to
capture him, but he said, ''you don't
take this man, and put for the woods.
He is a tall man, about so years Of age,
very poor in flesh, black whiskers
about an inch long, very poorly clad,
and says he is from Maine County,

JUDGE cox PUBLICLY
CENSURED.

The grand jury OF Lyon county last
week took Official cognizance of Judge
Cox's habitual debanchery, by sending
into court 4 resolution censuring the
honorable judge for disorderly conduct
through drunkenness both on and off the
bench. The complaint before the
grand jury was preferred by Rev. J. S.
Rogers. Several witnesses were sum-
moned, and the jury made all proper
effort to investigate the charges before
presenting the resolution. meeting
Of the bar was at once asked for by the
Judge, and the resolution laid before
them. Sixteen lawyers were present,
including enough of Cox's cronies to
pass resolution censuring the grand
jury, and endorsing Cox for his ability
and integrity. An attempt was made
to add the word "purity, but some of
the attorneys protested against such
unblushing whitewash and the word
was omitted. The Menus says that the
Judges visit to Marshall last fall was
chiefly marked by pitiable inebriety;
that his next visit few weeks ago,
also showed him in a state of intoxica-
ton; that during his last journey to
Marshall he entered, unlimited, the
private car of Supt. Sanborn, making
himself generally disagreeable, and
causing general stencil by upsetting a
whiskey bottle and splitting the con.
tents upon the furniture. Upon the
day of his arrival he opened court in
the afternoon, and them ws says it was
evident to all present that he was un.
der the influence ofllquor. The Mes
senger says that the action of the grand
jury is generally applauded, though
some of the attorneys oppose it on the
grounds that the step was irregula,
and not likely to result in a reform OF
what they generally admit has beer
disgraceful. Wen hope, for his owl
good, that the action Of the Lyon coun
ty grand jury will bring Judge Cox tc
his senses. He has gone through the
same antics here time and again, but
out of respect for his family and thu
Office he holds we have until now re
Trained from giving publicity to hi
debauchery.
