Prehistoric Bones.

st. Paul, PA skull Of heroic size
and singular formation has just been dis
covered among the relics Of the mound
builders in the Red River Valley. The
mound was sixty feet in diameter and
twelve feet high. Near the centre were
found bones of about dozen males and
fem ales, mixed with the bones Of various
animals. The skull in question was the
only perfect one, and near it were found
some sbnormally large body bones. The
man who bore it was evidently a giant.
Thorough investigation Of the mound and
contents will be made by the Historical
Society.

Apples as Food.

A raw, mellow apple is digested
in an hour and half, while boiled
cabbage requires five homs. The
most healthy dessert that can be
placed on the table is baked apple.
If eaten frequently at breakfast with
coarse bread and butter, without
meat or flesh of any kind, it has an
admirable effect upon the general
system, often removing constipation,
correcting acidities and cooling of
febrile conditions more effectually
than the most approved medicines.
If families could be induced to sub
stitute them for pies, cakes and
sweetmeats, with which their chill
dren are frequently stuffed, there
would be diminution in the total
sum of doctors bills in a single year
sufficient to lay in stock of this
delicious fruit for the whole season S

Imprisoned criminals have ac-

These men, it is true, have nothing

In a railroad car the seats were

man, and at one of the stations a
couple of evidently well-bred and
intelligent young ladies came in to
procure seats. Seeing none vacant,
they were about to go into the next
car, when Patrick arose hastily and
offered them his seat with evident
pleasure. "But you will have no

A Virginia DOg-Trap.

A Virginia farmer, having suf-
fered severely from the depreciation
of dogs upon his sheepfold, built
around a number of sheep that dogs
had killed an enclosure of rails
twelve feet high and ten feet square
at the ground, the sides of the trap
sloping inward until an opening was
left about five feet square. Any
dog could easily climb such a slop
ing fence and enter the pen, but not
even a greyhound could jump out of
it. In three nights the farmer cap
tured forty-six dogs, including fif-
teen to twenty that had never been
before in that neighborhood; this
after there had been a public
slaughter of all dogs suspected OF
sheep stealing, save one, whose
master could not be convinced OF
his guilt. The trap was built for
his especial benefit, and it caught
him the first night.

LADIES' COLUMN.
Cotton Seed oiIin Place orLard.

AS regards the use of cotton
seed oil for cooking purposes in
the place of hog lard, Mrs. j. L.
Walker, of Bay st. Louis, Missis-
sippi, contributes the following:
al have been using cotton seed
oil for more than ten years. In
view of this long experience, l think
am fully prepared to pass judge
ment upon its merits; and l unbesi-
tatingly say that l regard it as far
superior to lard for culinary pur-
poses. When properly used it is
lmperceptible to the taste, except,
perhaps IN the case of biscuits
which are to be eaten cold fer lunch;
IN that case lard or butter is prefer
able; but for everything which is to
be eaten Immediately, the oil can
not be detected.
For frying fish and oysters, it is
far less liable to burn than lard,
and a much larger quantity can be
used without waste or eXtfava
gance, as what is left can always be
strained into jar and kept for re
peated use, with the addition OF
more as needed. 1t does not be-
come stale or RANGED, and does not
retain the odor of fish.
For frying fish or tritters or for
baking waffles and batter cakes it
should be kept hot on the stove in
suitable vessel or the oil will alb
surb too much OF the raw cold oil.
For corn bread / add it for the
last thing; this makes the incest
egg bread without eggs.
For waf1les, made with cold
boiled rice, or for corn meal batter
cakes, the addition of little oil in
the batter makes it as rich and ten
der as though two or three eggs
were used.
| have not tried it for cake ex-
cept tor gingerbread, where it per
fectly supplies the place of both
butter and eggs.
For browning chopped onions
and -four for stews and gravies, it is
not so liable to burn black as lard
and gives a very rich appearance as
more or less OF the oil rises to the
surface in "eyes."
fret began the use OF oil from
hygenic, not from economic mo
tives, as l could then procure only
the highest priced bottled salad oil.
The oil as it comes fresh from the
refinery is limpid, pure and sweet,
with the color, taste and OdOr of
the bottled salad oil, supposed to be
genuine imported olive oil, the
most of which is, however, either
lard oil, or cotton-seed oil, the high
est price being paid for the bottles
and the fancy labels-not for the
contents.
From a hygenic point of view, l
consider it a most valuable substi-
tute for lard, keeping the blood
free from the impuriUy and humors
with which it is so frequently loaded
where lard and butter are frequent
ly used in cooking.
l think / have said enough to
show that, in my experience, at
least,it proved a most valuable sub
stitute not only for lard, but for
lard and eggs both, where both are
usually required, and that its gen
eral use would be. both sanitary and
economic grounds.

A full colony of bees consists of
three distinct kinds: l. The queen
or mother who lays all the eggs to
hatch drones and workers; ID. The
IroAes are the males, or father bee,
whose existence is very short, and
only lives about 80 days, if unsuc-
cessful in mating with a queen, but
if successful in mating he dies in
the act of population; Sd. The work
ers are female In their sex, which
is determined by perfectly fertil-
lied queen-it will lay eggs produc-
ing drones only, which are worth
less and not good for anything ex-
cept to eat honey, and fall prey to

Kind Words-Use Them.

Because they fall pleasantly OIL
the ears of all to whom they are ad
dressed, and it is therefore one o
the ways of promoting human hap
piness.
Because they give an impression
in your favor, and thus prepare the
way for your greater influence over
Others for good.
Because kind words powerfully
contribute to soothe and quiet your
own spirits when ruflled by the un
kindness of others.
Because they show the difference
between you and the rude, malicious,
or reVengeful, and are suited to
show them their wrong.
Because they are suited to stir up
the kind affections of your own
heart. There is sweet music in such
4 voice rightly to affect the soul.
Because they are so uncommon,
use them that there may be more of
such bright stars in our dark firma-
Ient.

All Alike to the Farmers.

1t is sometimes said that farmers
grumble, no matter " hat the seasons
may bring; but judging from the
following extract from the Financial
Chronicle, it would seem that years
of superintendent prosperity and of
comparative slackness are alike
profitable. That journal says :aThe
drought in the summer and fall of
1881 was one of the longest and
most widely extended that the
country had ever experienced, and
this, together with the preceding
winter Of extraordinary severity,
caused a falling off in the crops of
wheat and corn and of all dairy
products, producing a scarcity in
supplies and leading to an advance
in prices which materially increased
the cost of living. But to the
farmer who marketed his crops in
the fall Of 1881 the actual profits
must have been quite as large as
on the more abundant yield of 1880,
and taking the whole crop of wheat
and corn, as estimated by the Agri-
cultural Bureau, we would have the
following approximate values on the
average prices ruling New York be-
tween Sept. and Dec. l in each
year. Wheat, 1880, 5OO,OOO,OOO
bushels, at $1.13 per bushel, $500,
100000; 1881, 4OO,O00,OOO bushels,
at $1.45 per bushel, $5SO,OO0,O00;
corn, 1880, 1,72O,OOO,OOO bushels, at
55c. per bushel, $946,000,000; 1881,
1,29O,O00,000 bushels, at 72c. per
1928, 100000.
Probably, after all, since more
labor is required in harvesting and
transferring the superintendent
crops, the slack years are really the
more useful to the agriculturist.
