How TO Make Koumiss,

Fill quart champagne bottle up to
the neck with pure milk. add two table
spoonfulls of white sugar, after dissolv-
ing the same in little water over hot
fire; add also quarter of 2-cent cake
of compressed yeast. Then tie the cori
on the bottle securely, and shake the
mixture well; place it in room of the
temperature of so to 95 degrees Fahren-
heit for six hours, and finally in the ice
box over night. Drink la such guam
titles as the stomach may desire. 1t
viii be well TO observe several important
injunctions in preparing the koumiss.
and they are: First, to be sure that the
milk is pure; second, that the bottle is
sound; third, that the yeast is fresh;
fourth, to open the mixture in the morn
ing with great care, on account of its
efferyescent properties; fifth, not to
drink it at all if there is any curdle or
thickened part resembling cheese, as
this indicates that the fermentation has
been prolonged beyond the proper time,

So poor little Flora went crying home,
with vague comprehension that she
had spoken but the truth.
And the next day Mrs. Fortescue came
to see Flora Fay.

affectionate vehemence, "that you lost

only come and stay with me, and help
me with the sewing for my new house.

..Are you quite sure that can make
myself useful?" said Flora, little hes

..Yes, quite" said Mrs. Fortescue.
And, in the sunny atmosphere of her
new home, the young country girl SEEM

especially after Mrs. Fortescue's brother
"a handsome young sailor-made his
appearance on the scene, and little
Flora, all unconscious of her own feel
ings, began to watch for his daily visit
as heliotrope-blossom watches for the
sun.
Until, at last, there was talk of anoth-
er long voyage to China, and then Flora
grew pale and nervous again.
sI-I have been here long enough" !"
she said, "and need change"
But Dick Blake went straight to the
root of the matter.

that should go to Shanghai?''

whispered Flora, hanging down her
pretty head; "but of course, Captain
Blake, you must do as you please"
.'Yes, of course" he answered, alb
sently, and when he was gone Flora
shed few quiet tears over the table
linen she was hemming for Mrs. For
tescue.
But the next evening, at dusk, Cap
tain Blake sauntered in, with that swing
ing gait of his, as if he were still tread
ing the deck of an outward-bound YES
sci.
Don't run away, Flora" said he, as
the girl caught up her work, and pre-
pared for a precipitate retreat.
'.Did = did you want to speak to

eyes.

''Now it is coming" thought Flora,
with sick feeling at her heart. ''He is
going to be married, and he is coming

"Have you?" fiuttered Flora, family.

Housekeeping in the White House.

Mrs Stover, the daughter of Andrew
Johnson, was most thorough and ex-
cellent housewife, says a Washington
letter, and, by the perfect order and
management of the establishment, won
reputation for domestic talents that
New England matron mighty envy.
Mrs. Grant was altogether the best
house-keeper the mansion ever held, and
the most of her eight years were spent
in devising how to patch, turn, and make
presentable the well-worn furnishings,
since so much of the annual appropria-
ton went to the roof, the water-spouts,
and the plumbing. Mrs. Grant left the
house in the most perfect condition,
with everything spick and span. scrub
bed, cleaned, and polished about it. and
gave written inventory of every ar
ticle, from the kitchen traps to the rags
and crippled furniture of the garret.
Mrs. Hayes left things more to the
care of the servants during her four
years. and during the illness of Mrs.
Garfield, and afterward the death-siege
of President Garfield, the place ran it
self.
1t was like cleaning the Augean sta
bles to bring the house to a proper con-
dition for President Arthur, and that
fastidiously neat gentleman gave some
very decided orders when he first in
spected the white house from top to bot
tom with view to residence. When it
was scraped and secured, cleaned, pa-
pered, and furnished afresh, President
Arthur entered into his domain with
some reasonable complacency. He was
ushered into his own private room,-a
poem of carefully-blended tints of rob
in's-egg blue and maroon, touched with
dull gold and bronZe,-and then it was
found that there was not towel. in the
white house stores. The stock had di-
minished and then disappeared after
President Garield's illness, and his sue
cessoI's first official act was to command
the purchase of those necessary appli-
ances to civilization before he could dry
his hands. :

A Bloody Bear Fight.

Saratoga Special William Milliken,
of Boston, was killed by 400 pound
bear near the shore of Lake Piseco, in
the Adirondacks, last Saturday after
noon. He was one of party, the
others being John Dixon, Fountain and
Watson, of Philadelphia, and William
Wilkinson, of Birmingham, Conn.
They had with them James Shires, q
skilled guide, and four dogs. A bear
trail was followed up, when Shires told
the men to be careful about shooting
too suddenly should they happen to
come across any bears, who, at that
time, are very savage and apt to be on
the aggressive. Milliken, with the dogs
some distance ahead of the others,
came across male bear, female and
two cubs. Not needing the caution
given him by the guide, he opened
fire. The balance of the party hurried
forward, but when Shires, who first
reached the scene, came up, the bear
had killed the four dogs and was at
tacking Milliken, the latter making a
gallant fight for life. The guide hur-
RED to the rescue, but as he came up
the bear closed upon Milliken and kill
ed him. The bear then attacked Shires,
who was terribly hurt, and would have
been killed had not Watson gained the
spot and shot the male bear dead. The
others of the party poured a volley
into the female bear, who was also at
lacking. and killed her. Shires was
conveyed to his home on a ladder.
The mangled remains of Milliken were
shipped to his late home. He was
about thirty-five years of age and
left a family. He was interested
heavily in mining in Nova Scotia, and
was a stockholder in the Mechanics
vile Water Power company Of this

Killed by HaiIstOnes.

An Indian Territory dispatch says:
Broken Arrow and the surrounding
country has just been. visited by the
most severe hail storm ever experience
ed in the Indian Nation. The storm
swept over a scope of territory five
miles in length and mile wide, leaving
desolation in its path. Many dwellings
were destroyed. The town of Broken
Arrow was badly damaged. Hailstones
as large as an egg fell, stripping trees
and destroying fruit and growing crops.
An old woman, Ann Telebe by name,
was caught in the storm, and so fear
fully lacerated by hail that she is not
likely TO recover. Two brothers, aged
fourteen and seventeen, named Russell,
living west of Broken Arrow, are re-
ported to have been overtaken by the
storm while hunting and we're fatally
wounded. The full extent of damage
can not be learned for some days, but
will reach several thousand dollars.

THE coUNTRY's FISHERIES.

The foreign affairs committee of the
house has reported a joint resolution
accepting an invitation to participate
in the exhibition of fish and fish pro-
ducts, to be held in London in May,
1888. The commissioner of fish and
fisheries states that the products of
fisheries of the United States in 1880
was about 100000. This was the
estimated price paid to the producer,
but the wholesale rates would not be
less than S90,000,000' Prof. Baird
states that under the process now be-
ing employed the resources of the
waters of the United States may oe
made to produce a quantity of useful
products at least ten tines as great
as they now produce. He estimates
that at the rate at which oysters are
now being consumed, ten years will
exhaust the natural supply in this
country, but under artificial methods
now employed, the supply win soon be
restored. The exports OF oysters from
the United States to England have
risen in value from $33, Gel in 1870 to
S403. 629 in 1881. This country excels
all others in the preparation OF dried
cod fish and pollock and also has a SUI
perior grade of smoked herring, stur-
geon, halibut and gullet, which, if
placed upon foreign markets would
meet an immense sale. The display
of these and similar articles in the ex-
hibition would lead directly to their
introduction into European markets.
The joint resolution appropriates $780,
600. This excess over the amount APP
propriated for the exhibition at Berlin
is because an entirely new series of
presentation will be required which
was not the caee at Berlin, and that
the exhibition may be on much
larger scale.
