Effect of Sunlight on Flour.

Boston Journal of Chemistry.
1t frequently happens that wheat or rye
flour, in spite of the greatest care IN baking,
yields an inferior loaf, and the failure is
commonly attributed to adulteration; but
when Submitted to investigation neither
microscopic nor chemical tests reveal any
adulterauon. Such -four is returned to the
miller or dealer as unfit for use. The miller
says the -four was injured by the heating OF
the stones and the dealer attributes the de-
feet to the circumstance that the sun must
have shone upon the sacks during transporta-
ton. 1t has been proved by numerous ex-
periments that -four cannot bear the action
of the sun, even when not exposed directly
to its rays When -four is exposed TO the
heat of the sun an alteration takes place in
the gluten similar to that produced by the
heating of the stones. For this reason it is
advisable that the transportation of -four
should take place, if possible, on cool days OF
by night, as well as that flour should be
stored in a cool place.

a Young woman's Adventure.

Hartford Courant.
In New Haven, Saturday, Miss Nellie Man
ming dropped her rings from a window into a
narrow space between Debeps restaurant and
Cutters art gallery. She conceived the idea
of climbing down the flag-pole between the
buildings and getting them. The buildings
are closer together at the bottom than at the
top As consequence, Miss Manning, who
is young woman of rather portly figure,
found herself wedged in between the walls of
the two buildings while she was about fifteen
feet from the ground. She screamed, and the
inmates of the two adjoining buildings were
aroused and a crowd collected. Word was
sent to the police-station, and Chief Webster,
Detective Brewer and Officer Bradley an
swered the summons and brought a rope,
with the idea of loosening the young woman
and hauling her up. Upon their arrival they
found that she had nearly reached the third
story by means of a ladder that had been let
down. Her strength failed as she neared the
window, and the officers seized her and
hauled her in. She tainted after being res
cued. The rings which she tried to recover
are still in the passageway.

While Mrs. Langtry was enjoying a sump-

and after apologizing to the lady, stated the

emerged from the car laden down with cold
meats fruits, etc., which he conveyed to the
furnishing woman. Later the woman and

The House of Lords.

IOndOn Times.
A roll-call of the lords spiritual and tenn
poral in the fourth session of the twenty
second Parliament of the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland has just been is
sued. According to the usage OF Parliament
when the House appoints select committee,
or sends a committee to a conference with
the Commons, the lords are named in order
OF rank, beginning with the highest; other
wise the call begins with the junior baron.
In the roll each peer has a number set
against his name to show his rank in the
House. Five royal princes are at the head
OF the list, and at the end are the two most
recently made peers, Lord Alcester and Lord
Wolseley, whose number is 524 in the roll.
This number is in excess of the total number
oil spiritual lords and temporal. This discrep-
ancy arises from certain lords appearing
twice, both in their due rank in the peerage,
and also US high officers of state. Lord Sell
borne, besides being an earl, stands seventh
on the list, taking precedence of every one
except the roval dukes and the Archbishop
OF Canterbury, who is not yet on the list;
Lord Spencer comes ninth, as Lord President
OF the Council, and Lord Carlingford next as
Lord Privy Seal. Lord Sidney, as Lord Stew
ard takes precedence among ears, and Lord
Kenmare, as Lord Chamberlain, among bar
ons Lord Erne also holds two places in the
roll, as Earl of Erne and Lord Fermanagh.
Every peer has set against his name any Of
flee or superior title IN the peerage OF Ireland
or OF Scotland that he may hold.

A Demand for CIergYmen.

New York Letter in Chicago Times.
There isa loud call for clergymen from
all parts of the country. An English news
paper says that religious denomination in
one of our Western States has written to the
president of a theological seminary in that
country to ask if he cannot send them a
score of young ministers The Congreca-
tionalist says that twenty-five of the leading
pulpits of New England are vacant. Pres-
den, Eliot, of Harvard, referred in a recent
speech to the fact That young men OF brains
and ambition were avoiding the pulpit. 1t
has been stated that this state of affairs may
be justly attributable to two causes: First,
to the fact that many men of humble tai
ents do not see in the pulpit the same oppor-
tunity to earn a respectable living for their
families that they see in trade or farming;
the days of $500 and $500 ministerial sala-
ries still continue Secondly, to the fact
that young men of talent and energy see
that the practice of beneficiary ministerial
education fosters -spirtedness and at
tracts to the seminaries lot OF very inferior
fellows. 1t is possible that they had rather
not train with that crowd, but prefer to push
out into the world where they may be sharp
ened instead of dulled by personal contact
with people in their own business.

Aristocratic Waiting Maids.



The society girls who were not invited to
the Vanderbilt ball, but who had arranged
with certain invited ladies to go disguised as
their maids, had a sorry time on finding that
no domestcs were allowed to enter the
house. They were obliged to remain in the
carriages outside. One of these victims
writes: ut was dreadful. Because, in addi-
ton to the tediousness of waiting so long in
the cold would you believe it, that imper-
tinent footman of Mrs. S. s took it into his
head to begule the time by entering on a

was not ill-looking either, and being in full

Country Gentleman.


Peanuts succeed best in rather light soil, a
light gray sandy loan being usually best, as
the color of the pods partakes of the color of
the soil, and a brown soil gives q crop the
color OF which reduces the market price. A
good preparation is a crop of corn the pre-
vious year which has been kept clear of
weeds. The seed may be planted in drills
three feet apart, and the seed ten inches or a
foot apart in the drill, or two seed may be
planted together foot and half apart.
Lime is essential, and if the soil is not cal
careous, or has not been previously lined, it
is we'll to give a thin coat broadcast, at the
rate of about ten or fifteen bushels an acre
before planting. We see no reason why a
suitable drill may not be used for putting in
the seed. Superphosphate is useful on most
peanut soils. The time for planting is about
the middle of May. Keep the ground per-
fectly clean by cultivation.

Pail Mall Gazette.


There is no village close TO London which
preserves its classic grace and air of lettered
antiquity so thoroughly as Stoke Pogis.
With the one exception of that hideous man
sion which testiiies to the Pailadian taste of
Wyatt, there is no building at Stoke which
thrusts upon the visitor conviction that it
did not exist in Gray's time at least. The viii
lage itself has rather dwindled than expand
ed, the famous house of the Hattons has
shrunk to a cluster of chimney-stacks
But the wonderful church remains,
with its atmosphere of eigh-
tenth century poetry around it.
and the sentiment of its outrageous church
yard. Mr. Frederick Slocombe, the distin-
guished etcher, has just paid fine tribute to
its beauty, and to the genius of Gray, in a
large etching, which is published by Mr.. Dun
thorne, of Vigo street. 1t represents the pic
turesque structure built by Sir John Malines
500 years ago, in the rich twilight which the
poet has described in his "Eiegy." This i'm
aginative impression of the scene will be
valued by many who have visited Gray's
tomb, and who agree with a distinguished
American that there are comparatively few
buildings in Ohio at once so ancient and SO
picturesque as the Church of Stoke Pogis.

The Heavens in April.


Neptune is leader in the order of rising
and setting of the four great planets that are
now included in the list of evening stars
He has nearly reached his greatest distance
from the EARTH and is so far away and so
near the sun that the largest telescope in the
world would fail to bring him to view. The
increasing distance between Neptune and
Saturn is worthy of note, for,
as the former is thirteen years in passing
through a constellation of the zodiac
and Saturn is only two years and
half, the distance between them must in
crease. Saturn is now nearly south of the
Pleiades, and presents no features of special
interest to the ordinary observer Even the
telescopist will soon have to take a season of
rest, for the ringed planet will soon be hid
den from view by his close approach to the
sun. The observation WILL however, he COM
