Rothschild and the Artist.

The late Baron James Rothschild was
persuaded by his friend, Eugene Della
croix, the distinguished painter, to sit
for him as the model of beggar, as
much by the way of joke as because
of his capacity for excellently assuming
the appearance of mendicant. While
he was thus disguised one day in the
artists studio one of Delac 'oix's young
friends and disciples entered, and was
so completely deceived by the models
wobegone appearance, that in passing
out he stealthily pressed a coin into the
old mans hand. Rothschild greatly
enjoyed his success in his assumed
character, and took the money; but he
afterward made inquiry concerning the
young man, and learning that he was in
needy circumstances and eking out an
existence by teaching, became a very
useful friend to him and the source. OF
substantial pecuniary aid.

A Scene IN the Ohio Legislature Eighty
Years Ago.
Michael Baldwin, the irrepressfble
and incofrifible, was no more digni-
fed, abstemious or moral in bis posi-
tion ss speaker of the first Ohi0 horAe
Of representatives than he had been 'in
former years in lesser stations. He pre-
sided over the chamber in 1903, 1904,
and 1905. II is q matter of tradition
that for his own peouniary benefit, and
for the entertainments of those among
tho Legislators who had penchant for
gaming, he established in his rooms the
game of " vingb-et-uh," himself Octing
rs banker and dealer, and as n matter of
course winning more frequently than
any of the other players. On one oc-
casion, after much drinking and late
sitting at tho gambling-table, Baldwin
found himself in possession not only Of
all the money Of his companions, but
of many OF their watches. In tho
morning the house of representatives
was found TO be without q quorum; but
Baldwin, accustomed to heavy drinking
and late hours, was in his place back Of
the speakers desk. Rapping savagely
with his gavel, he demanded the Ioll
call of the house, and then sent the
sergeant-at-arms out with orders to
bring in the delinquent members. After
an hour or so that functionary returned,
followed by about dozen members of
the Ohio legislature, whose bloodshot
eyes, sufused faces, unsteady, sham.
bling steps, and general air of shame
facedness indicated the late hours they
had kept and their heavy indulgences.
With much austerity of manner, Bald
win reprimanded the tardy members,
reminded them of the cost to which the
infant State was subjected by payment
of their per diems, and was proceeding
to further elaborate his censure on their
late arrival and the consequent delay of
legislation, when one of the delinquents,
exasperated beyond control, cried out:
Hold on, there, Mr.. Speaker, hold
on How could we toll what time it
was when the speaker of the house
had all our watches s?-Hwper's BagG

The Giant Trees.

A correspondent of the San Francisco
Examiner, in speaking of the big trees
of Calaveras county, says: In the
stump of one of these a ballroom, thirty
feet across, is built, and it requires a
ladder of eighteen steps to ascend to
t. e top of the log, on which was built a
ten.pin alley. 1t has been bnned up,
but the body of the old, charred mon
arch of the forest still remains. Think
Of it-a hollow log, through which one
can ride on horseback and come out
through knot-holei There are some
ninety of these big trees, measuring
from 80 to 100 feet in circumference,
and reaching up to the skies-from 800
to 450 feet. From the rings that de-
note the annual growth of these trees
science has estimated some Of them, to
be 1000 years old, while they stand
over the fallen bodies of much older
growth, covered over with earth and
large growing trees, as it is one of the
peculiarities of this timber not to de-
cay. 1t appears to be a species of red
wood,

Opium Smoking in America.

Four thousand is moderate estimate
of the total number of native American
victims to the opium habit, and these,
it is safe to speculate, consume 100
grains of the drug day. This gives a
daily consumption of 400, grains, or
about 10000 pounds during the year.
About three drains of the smoking
opium, equivalent to six drains of the
crude drug, make the average quota of
days consumption, and this much
costs fiom fifty to seventy-five cents.
Some who go to perpetual excess, how
ever, have been known to consume as
much as a pound and quarter dur
ing day. Taking the average, how
ever, it will be found that the man who
bankers after the deleterious and short
lived enjoyment of the drug can crafty
his taste only at an expense of 5000
a year, and the combined indulgence of
all American opium-smokers will be
found to be carried on at cost of over
$750,000 yearly. And yet this waste is
constantly being increased and the
ranks of the fools multiplied, notWith-
standing that in some States and cities
stringent Laws, with penalties of heavy
fines and imprisonment, have been re-
sorted to stay the hurtful progress of
the habit. Arrests are constantly made
in San Francisco, under city ordinance,
but seemingly without avail, and the
vigorous legal prohibition of Nevada
effects but little, if any, abatement of
the evil. The importations of smoking
opiu4A into America have steadily in
creased during the last ten years, and
the returns for 1880 show the enormous
quantitity of 1886 pounds, valued at
$773, ,796, imported, as against 1884
pounds, valued at $353,334 sent here
in 1871, being an increase of 1900
pounds in a single year, and this in
crease not being attributable to the in
crease of Chinese emigration at that.

APPLE TRIF1E.-Scald as many apples
as when pulped will cover the dish you
design to use to the depth of two or
three inches Before you place them
in the dish add to them the rind of half
a lemon, grated fine, and Sugar to taste.
Mix half pint of milk, half q pint of
cream and the yolk of an egg scald it
over the fire, keeping it stirring, and do
not let it boil add little sugar ard
let it stand till cold then lay it over
the apples and finish with the cream
whip.
PUMPKIN Pm.-Cut the pumpkin into
as thin slices as possible, and in stew
ing it the less water you use the better /;
stir so that it shall not burn when
cooked and tender stir in two pinches
of salt mash thoroughly and then strain
through q sieve while hot add table
spoonful of butter for every measured
quart of stewed pumpkin, add a quart
Of warm milk and four eggs, beating
yolks and whites separately sweeten
with white sugar and cinnamon and nut
meg to taste, and saltspoonful of
ground ginger. Before putting your
pumpkin in your pies it should be scald-
ing hot.
ROAST MEAT.-An old housekeeper
writes would like to tell "Young
Housekeeper my way of cooking a rib
roast, which is very good piece to
bake. Have your butcher take out the
ribs and roll up the meat nicely and
keep it together by tying a piece of
clean cord around it; skewers are in
the way and prevent carving nicely.
Have your oven about as hot as to bake
bread and keep the same heat until the
meat is done. A five-pound roast re-
quires three-quarters of an hour in the
oven if you like it quite rare. Pepper
and salt your meat and put it in the
dripping par without any water or drip
ping to be perfect it must be basted
with the drip from the meat. When
done remove the meat, set the pan on
top of the stove and stir in as much
flour as you need to thicken the gravy.
When brown thin with boiling water.

of four eggs with one-quarter pound of
powered loaf sugar, add gradually two
ounces of -four and two ounces If potato
flour, lastly the whites of four eggs
whipped to a stiff froth. When the
whole is well mixed put it in buttered
plain mold and bake. Turn out the
cake when done, and when it is quite
cold cover it evenly all over with the
following icing, ornamenting it with
piping of the icing pushed through a
paper cone. This last operation must
be done with care, lest the heat of the
hand warm the icing. When the cake
is finished it should be put in a cold

1t is an experience vouchsafed to very
few, to tread along the border land of
death and yet come back to life, preserved
as if by amiracle. Yet such was the ex-
perience of Professor Tice, of st. Louis,
the day following the conclusion of his
course of lectures at Burlington, Iowa,
lately, as we learned from Mr.. Sam1 L.
Pyle, the well-known druggist of Mt.
Pleasant, in relation 10 the case. Pro-
fessor Tice gives the strongest indorse
ment of the efficacy of st. Jacobs Oil,
which it is possible to give. Ii pro-
duced immediate relief in an attack of
neuralgia of the chest, where the pulse
had gone down to thirty-fve per min
ute, and scarcely perceptible. In half
an hour his pulse was restored to its
normal beat of eighty. Four appoint
ments of lectures had to be cancelled in
consequence. Professor Tice credits
the st. Jacobs Oil with having saved
his life. Mr.. Geo. f. w. Wiley, the
widely-known teacher here, in response
to an inquiry concerning the remedy,
said: With great pleasure bear testi-
mony to the peculiar healing properties
of st. Jacobs Oil, in rheumatic pains.
Having been a sufferer with this dis
tressing malady for years do say that
the curative effects of the st. Jacobs
Oil in my case surpassed those of any
other rheumatic remedy, many of which
/ had been forced to use. Mr.. e. Rugg
spoke from personal experience in stat
ing that he had suffered a great deal
from rheumatism, and been troubled at
different times with sore throat. He
purchased a bottle of st. Jacobs Oil
from Mr.. Pyle, and after three or four
applications was relieved of his ailment
Asking Mr.. W. A. Rouse what he knew
about the article he said : After great
suffering with pain in the left side, at
tended with severe collie, was recon-
mended to use st. Jacobs Oil. 1 pur-
chased bottle, took two doses and ap-
piled some externally. was relieved
Immediately and have not experienced
any pain since; that of my left side
from which 1 had suffered for more
than one year having left me. Such
experiences as these carry conviction
with them to all fair-minded and
thoughtful people, and more firmly
establish the merit of that famous
remedy which, too, has our indorse-
ment.

The experiments were made on the
apple and pear. An apple tree eight or
ten years old, which had scarcely made
any fruit buds, had done best when
about half the roots were cut in one sea-
son and half three years later, by going
half way around on opposite sides in
one year and finish at the next pruning,
working two feet underneath to sever
downward roots. tt has always an
swered we'll, also, to cut on such trees
all the larger and longer roots about
two and half feet from the stem, leav-
ing the smaller and weaker ones longer
and going half way around, as already
stated. The operation was repeated
three or four years later by extending
the cut circle foot or two further away
from the tree. BY this operation un-
productive fruit trees became COM
pletely studded with. fruit spurs and
afterward bore profusely. This short
ening of the roots has been continued
in these experiments for twenty years
with much success, the circle of roots
remaining greatly circumscribed. The
best time for the work has been found
to be in the latter part of August and
beginning of September, when growth
has nearly ceased and while the leaves
are yet on the trees, causing greater in
crease of bloom buds the following year
than when performed after the leaves
have fallen. London Garden.

Pigs are subject to e weakness of tho
spine By which the nerves controlling
tho movements Of the hind limbs are
parnlyzed. This is often constitutional,
and arises from breeding pigs so de-
fective. When young sucking pigs are
affected in this way it no doubt comes
in this manner. The treatment is to
apply counter-irritant to the loins,
such as turpentine, rubbed freely upon
the back; apply once day and give the
pigs teaspoonful Of powdered rosiS in
the food for each two or three, once a
day for o week. Pigs so affected should
never be used for breeding.

Among the remarkable operations
performed in Germany recently by emil

stomach or the abdomen had to be
opened have been at once the most dan

the stomach, comes now DIR. Schin-

Freiburg, with two cases in which OBJ
stIuctions in the entrails had to be re-

section of one Of the intestines had to
be cut out and the severed ends seWed
