Wanted to Sell Her Body.

New York Special to Philadelphia News.
Prof. James Walsh stood in the dis
secting-room of the New York Univer-
sity Medical College when a messenger
arrived and, announced that a lady
wished to see him. The professor at
once ordered that she be admitted.
AS this is a. most unusual request on
the part of a. lady, and as the PROBES
scr did not know. of any female &C
quaintances who would be particularly
room, his curiosity was aroused to
learn the cause of the lady's visit.
After the lapse Of half a. minute or
SO tall, angular woman, past middle
life, with a. Teutonic cast OF counte-
nance and an unmistakable accent,
made her appearance.
.'You are hesuperintendent here? =
she asked, and without waiting for an
answer added, II have a body at home

buy such things here" This was at
once in the line of the professors bust

portunity.

"but they must be of the right kind
no mutilation. no infection, nothing
of that sort, you know"
"Oh," she replied, "this body is all
right, and | will be responsible for it.
You see my children are hungry, and
it will not do to starve while one can
get bread. [ do hate to see them dy-
ing before my very eyes while | am
able to give them no help
Perhaps it is the body of one Of
your children that you wish to sell, !"
interrupted Prof. Walsh. "In that
case it would be of no use to us, as we
require adults alone"
"On that score you may rest easy.
1t is not my children's body, but my
own. for can get bread now no other
way, and you can have it as soon as
[ receive the money, for can die easy
when [ know the little ones have had
something to eat"
The professor looked up into the
face of the distracted mother and at a
glance saw that picture of earnestness
and truth forcibly depicted thereon
that went down into the very depths
of his heart, and he drew from his
pocket a S. bill and placed it in the
hands of the poor demented creature.
She overwhelmed the donor with her
thanks.

American Corn in ENGLAND.

William Cobbett, who could write
on agriculture better than he could
farm lin which he was not perhaps
alone), went home to England IN 1929
or thereabout, after having for sever
al years cultivated an estate on Long
Island, and undertook to naturallze
several American products. Among
them was Indian corn, which he
thought might become a staple. article
of food in Great Britain. and he wrote
long and interesting articles on the
subject. He demonstrated on paper
that crop of 100 bushels to the acre
could be easily and proftably grown,
but when he planted field with it on
his farm, called Barnes ,Elms, he could
not produce over ten bushels to the
acre. The English farmers laughed at
Cobbett and his corn crop, as an ex-
ample of the folly of broaching new
doctrines as orthodox which will not
stand practical test. The climate of
Great Britain is not suitable for the
growth o. Indian corn, and although
it has been grown on rich, sheltered
spots, it cannot be proftably culti-
waited.

fore the timothy seed is sown it will
obviate this difficulty.
There is good reason for the COM
mon practice of feeding soft corn
whole in the ear to any kind OF stock
while it is yet in the green state.
There is considerable nutriment IN the
cob while green, and both. it and the
corn are much more easily digestlble
than later in the season., when both
have become hardened. ). ;t..,s.
The mammoth clover is rather too
much of a good thing. It's chief use IS
to pillow under, as it's coarse stocks
are not relished by stock. 1t starts
later in spring than the. smaller varie-
ty, and On rich land the latter will
yield two to three. tons per acre,
which will give more feed to stock
than the greater bulk of the large va
riety.

Not Good Judges of ShawIs.

From the Lewiston (Me.) Journal e
Hanging in a dry goods firms win
dow were some elegant cashmere
shawls. There is nothing more mis-
leading, perhaps, than a cashmere
shawl, but the ordinary lady purchas-
er prides herself on what she knows
about such things. Recently two
ladies entered the store and asked to
look at the shawls. They were pro-
duced and displayed to the ladies,
who pulled at them and picked at
them, and discussed them, and finally
turned aside with an air of indiffer-
ence, as if they had found no merit in
them. The obliging lady clerk had be-
come interested in their examination,
and, as the ladies were about to turn
away, she asked what they thought OF
the shawls.
One of the women only spoke up.
She stuck her long forefnger under one
of the shawls and, pulling at it again,
replied; 60 nothing much. | saw the
shawls in the window; that was all.
thought then that they were pretty
cheap at 50, but I don't want 'em.' y
Thetag on theg goods might have misled
them, and perhaps the outward ap-
pearance of the rich fabric of the
shawls might have aided in the decep-
ton. The tag was marked 5000 in
stead of So, The clerk explained the
difference to her customers. Both OF
them, it is said, looked as if they
would like to have the roof fall on

How Milk is Spoiled.

Milk will absorb odors at one time
when it would not at another. It
readily takes in vapors and odors
from the air when it is at the same
temperature or colder than the air
which surrounds it, but parts with its
own odors when warmer than the air
with which it is in contact. When
cold air touches warm milk the air ex-
pands and becomes lighter and rises.
As it expands its capacity for holding
vapors, gases or odors is so much in
creased that it is not only able to
hold all it contained before but to
take In more.
Thus cold air, even if it is not quite
as pure as one might desire it for
breathing, does not contaminate
warm milk, but, on the contrary, act
ually becomes an aid in purifying it.
A pail of freshly-drawn milk, SO long
as it remains much warmer than the air
In the stable, may stand in the stable
unharmed, provided nothing but the
air, or what is in the air, touches it.
warm air the effect will be reversed.
When warm air touches the cold milk
the air becomes condensed, and its
capacity for holding moisture and
odors is so much diminished that it
becomes unable to retain the load 1T
was carrying, and is forced to deposit
its burden upon the surface OF the
milk, to be absorbed and held IN the
milk, or it's cream, in the same way
that the air on hot day unburdens
itself on the surface of the vessel of ice
water, becoming apparent IN the form
ofdew
II q pail of warm milk and one of
cold milk are placed side by side in the
same stable one may be growing purer
and the other more foul at the same
time. Under the law of the diffusion
of gases, aeriform bodies will, to some
extent, force themselves into liquids
like milk or water when all are at the
same temperature. But that law is
largely controlled by relative temper
atures.
Stable oders get into the milk largely
through the breath of thecow. Stand
ing In stable filled with foul air, 6
cow cannot avoid taking In at every
breath the odors with which it is
loaded. Upon entering the lungs they
are forced at once into differentiation.
The blood becomes charged with them,
ard the milk which always receives all
unloading of the blood of it's impuri-
ties, as well as its nutriment, also be-
comes loaded with the odors intensi-
fed, greatly to the disgust OF those
who use the milk.
Foreign odors, good or bad, are
taken into milk in the air breathed by
milk-giving COWS. An account was
recently published Of milk spoiled by
being saturated with the odor OF
onions, from lettering a cow to the

Between the Rows.

In many places where potato rot
prevails only the small potatoes, the
latest set, escape the injection. These
late potatoes are generally unripe. and
will be very unreliable for seed pur-
poses.
Celery may bemost cheaply bleached
by putting a four-inch drain tile over
the plant about a foot high, and then
allowing it to grow with only a little
banking of earth around the tile to
keep it in place.
1t is not generally known that the
russell apple is one of the very best for
cider. 1t has very rich Juice, and the
culls Of russets unfit for barreling may
be more proftably utilized for cider
than for any other purpose.
Objection is made to brewers grains
by some dairymen that they operate
on COWS much as beer does on human
beings, stimulating them to an unnat-
ural activity for a time, but at the eX-
pense of permanently weakening the
animal
In selecting a SOW for breeding
choose one that is quiet and of mild
disposition. She may be the one that
will lay on fat most easily, and it will,
therefore, be necessary to feed spar
ingly, but she will be all the better as
breeder for this.
A second growth of barley, grown
from seed scattered in harvesting, will
often give much fall feed for stock.
1t grows more rapidly, and lis leaves
are broader than those of any other
grain, but for late feeding after frost
comes rye is preferable.
One of the reasons why timothy is
so hurtful to winter wheat is that, as
mostly sown after the drill, large
share Of the seed falls in the hollows
made by the drill tubes where wheat
is growing; if the ground is rolled be-
