COST OF MILK.

Interesting Experience With Various
 Foods and With Combinations of
 Foods.
 Those who keep but one or two cows in the cities, villages, and at suburban homes are as much interested in the cost of the production of milk as the farm- CT or dairyman who feeds many. A series of careful experiments have been made at the Massachusetts Agricultural Experiment Station to determine the cost of making milk from various foods. These were bran, shorts, corn-meal, (the refuse from glucose factories), hay, corn fodder and corn ensilage. A synopsis of the published re- suits shows that in feeding bran or shorts, cornmeal and gluten-meal, three and quarter pounds weight of each were used. Two of the foods were also combined, making SIX and half pounds to feed each COW daily, and at times combination of three kinds was used, making nine and th1ee-quarters pounds feed daily to each COW. The remain ing food was either hay, dry-corn fod- der or corn ensilage. The highest amount of hay eaten by any COW in one day was twenty pounds, and of ensilage fifty-ive pounds. The apparent bulk of the ensilage over the hay, as shown by weight, may be understood when it is remembered that the hay is dry while ensilage is juicy. The highest cost of milk per quart was from liberal hay and grain feed, being two and three tenths cents per quart. The milk pro- duced at the lowest cost was from a moderate feeding of ensilage and corn meal, and was but eighty-three-hun- dredths cents per quart. Practically, it will be seen from the above that quart of milk produced by feeding hay and grain costs as much as two and one fourth quarts produced by feeding ensilage and corn-meal. It is also stated that, so far as the quality of the milk was concerned, under the various con- ditions of feed given, no serious altera- ton in the composition was noticed.- CbicGq0 Times.

THE GUM HABIT.

How It Enriched the Owner of Little
 New York Candy Shop.
 A resplendent carriage was drawn dashingly past hotel at Lanch. and in it sat solid sort of a man. asked his name of my companion on the thronged veranda, and the answer con- veyed no information as to who or what he was. So pursued my inquiry, in a true American spirit, by asking how he had made the wealth which was appar- ent in his equipage. Look around us," was the reply, ''and you will see that about three out of four of the women young or old, are chewing gum. The awful gum habit has taken hold of the jaws of the fashionable women throughout the country this summer. Just as you observe it here so it is at every resort. The fascination of gum-chewing equals that of opium, I do believe, and its slaves are slaves in deed. Well, go around the corner to the drug store to buy a stick of the fa- vorite gum and you will find that it is manufactured by the man we saw in the carnage. The article Is protected Dy patent He invented it five years ago, when he kept little candy store in a back street in New York. lis custom CTS were the pupils of public school near by, and the gum pleased them. The appetite for it spread beyond the immediate neighborhood, and the man soon found customers at wholesale, though in a small way, in other confec- tioners. Then he got out his patent and put the gum into the market svstemati- cally. Children throughout the land became victims to it. He had to estab- fish considerable factory. The sale was adroitly pushed. Lately the demand was extended by a truly fashionable craze and l don't know how many thousands of dollars the chap has made, but he rides in his good carriage, at all events. "-COr- AIbGny Journal.

ABOUT THlSTLES.
A Species of Plant Preceded by Vast Evol-
 lutionary History.

A Species of Plant Preceded by Vast Evol-
 Iutionary History.
 The thistle pedigree is a long and curious one. The group forms ap- parently the central and most primitive existing tribe of the composite family and it bears in its own features the vis- ible marks of vast previous evolution ary history. Starting apparently from blossoms with five distinct and separate yellow petals, like the buttercups, the ancestors of thistlehood gradually progressed, as it seems, by insect selec- ton, to a condition something like that of the harebell or the Canterbury bell, in which the petals have coalesced at their bases into a single large and united tube. Clustering together next into closely serried heads, like those of the scabious, the rampions and the con- mon blue sheepsbit, they endeavored to make up for the individual minuteness of their dwarfed flowers by the number and mass collected in a group on the summit of each stem. In this way they gradually assumed the distinctive crowded composite form, each tloret consisting of tubular five-lobed corolla, a calyx reduced to hairs or down and a single tiny seed like fruit. Of this stage in the development of the family the simpler and less specialized member of the thistle group, such as the unarmed saw-works and the Alpine saus- surea, are now the best sur viving representatives. From some such early central form the evolving composites split up and diversified themselves into all their astonishing and almost incredible existing variety. Some of them, varying but little Tn minor details from the parent stock, ac- quired prickly leaves and grew into the thistle kind, or developed hooked and sticky involucres, and were known as burdocks. Others. producing at their edge a row of brilliantly-colored and at tractive tiorets, which serve the purpose of petals for the compound head, branched off into all the marvellous wealth of daises, asters, sunfiowers, marigolds, dahlias, golden rods, OK eyes and cinerarias. In yet others the whole mass of florets, central as we'll as external, has assumed the raylike or straplike form; and to this group be- long the dandelions, hawkweeds. sal- sifies, lettuces, SOW thlstles, chicories, aippleworts and oatsears. By far the most successful of all towering plants the composites have taken possession in one form or another of the whole world, and among the entire wealth of their extraordinary diversity there is no group more universally fortunate than the common thistle. What from the purely agricultural point of view we describe as a very persistent and almost ineradicable weed, from the higher bio logical point of view we should more properly regard as dominant and ad- mirabIy adapted species of plant. The one conception is merely narrow, prao- tical and Human; the other is positive, philosophical and universal,-Lon0- ngan's MGoGzine.

NEW ILLUMINANT.
The Wonderful Light-Giving Powers o
 this Metal Magnesium.

this Metal Magnesium.
 "Do you know" said a chemist to a reporter, ''that the metal magnesium is being introduced into the United States as an illuminant as a substitute for all other lightsP' The listener disclaimed any knowledge on the subject.
 ''Its successful introduction, con- tinued the speaker, will depend alto- gether upon the cost of its production, nothing but its high cost preventing it's practical use. A few years ago it was sold at forty dollars pound. Now, by new process. German, it can be sold at eight dollars pound, and there is little doubt that before long it will be pr0- duced even more cheaply."
 Here the chemist took out shining piece of what looked like strip of watch-spring, which he ignited. AS it burned it produced a powerfully brill- iant light, more intense even than electricity.
 '.Its use will not be attended with danger like electricity, and it can be arranged so that even the remote coun- try church or dancing hall can have it, as we'll as the dwellcrs in the great cities. It can be placed in a lamp, ar- ranged with clock-work movements to feed ribbon of the metal regularly. It has white vapor, oxide of magnesium, given off by the metal in burning. which will require smoke-bell when burned indoors.
 The chemist ignited another piece of the watch-spring, which glowed like the sun itself.
 1t is said," he continued, ''that a magnesium lamp of one thousand can- dle power throws enough light to dis tinguish vessel nine miles distant. A wire the size of this equals the light of seventy-fve stearine candles. This would make the cost of magnesium lit tie more than gas, while no expensive works or street mains are required tor its use, making its introduction for lighting towns and villages very S m- pie matter indeed. predict that with in five years the magnesium light will be as familiar sight in many places in Indiana as the electric light is to-day in Indianapolis.

 Ignorance, violation of all san itary principles, miserable poverty, the extreme rigor of winter and neglect by drunken parents are said to be some of the principal reasons why out of 1000 children born in Russia scarcely 423 will reach ther twentieth birthday.

The Russian Government is seeking means to dimin- ish this frightful infant mortality, but with little hope of speedy success, since the main causes can only be erad- ica'ed by the progressive education and reformation of successive generations of people.

Some of the Geuuiue Delights of Rural
 Life iu Old Georgia.
 Finally deliberately pizzicato move- ment reveals the fact that the fiddle is in proper condition, and an audible and visible excitement is seen among the young people.
 ''Git your partners" screams ''Fid- dlin' Jim," drawing three violent strokes of the bow and uttering the com- mand with marked rhythmic accent on each word.
 The fiddle" and the terpsichorean temptation have put all bashfulnesS to flight; the most awkward rustic can ask a girl to dance under the effect of such inspiration; and ''hands across and down the middle'' shakes the cabin to its foundations. The fiddler plays and looks like one in sort of ecstasy. His foot keeps time to the measure of the rollicking tune, while his eyes seem fixed upon the blue space which peers through the cracks of the roof, as if his soul were floating out, borne aloft upon his own harmonious strains. To the cultivated ear it is eXecrable, it is tor ture; but ''Fiddlin' Jim' has passed beyond the regions of criticism into the unalloyed bliss of one who sees and knows no discord.
 By and by the reel is finished, and only the champion dancers remain on the floor. Then begins the tug of war. The true Greek is well known, and each con- testant has his or her bevy of admirers,
 "Now for who lasts the longest" " screams ''Fiddlin' Jim" "Who keers if the r.ver is up?"
 This last defiant interrogatory is per fectly intelligible to the company, who fully appreciate the serious incon venience which enters into their lives when the river is up. Burning Rome and swollen rivers, however, do not inter- rupt enthusiastic fiddlers and dancers. After startling feats of agility on the part of the men, and many graceful evolut ons on the part of the girls, most of the dancers are exhausted, and take their seats, leaving one couple in pos session of the floor. These two are to do honor to the occasion. The fiddler is now brought back from the divine ecstasy to the realities around him, and himself becomes an ardent partisan, espousing the cause of the girl, of course, who, perhaps, in her dancing career, has slain her hundreds.
 '.Dance up, Kitty; don't be afeerd," says ''Fiddlin' Jim," encouragingly.
 Brace up, Sam, or she'll flag you, old feller," mutters one of Sams com panions, whose friendship gets the bet ter of his gallantry.
 Old and young gaze at the rival danc- CTS with intenseSt interest and curiosity. The dancers grow more and more ex- cited. Each astonishing feat performed by one suggests one still more astonish- ing on the part of the other. Sam's friends applaud, and Kitty's friends ap- plaud more loudly.
 Make his head swim, Kitty" sug- gests "Fiddlin' Jim," who sees SamFs enthusiasm beginning to flag This Kitty proceeds to do by turning rapidly round and round, which series of evolu- tions Sam is bound by all the rules of the floor to follow. This, perhaps, brings the dance to a conclusion, as Kitty is able to revolve longer and more rapidly than Sam.-BroOktyn Magazine.

HOPE FOR THE BEST.

Why People should Look at the Fright
 and hopeful side of Life.
 There was never a night so dark that some would not speak of the dawn, and never day so bright that some would not think of the midnight. It is well that the enthusiast be balanced by the conservative, perhaps, on the prime pie that a little shade improves the tone of almost any picture. It is, however, a thankless mission that the grumbler en- ters upon, and his is work that shad- ows his own mind and heart more than that of any other. Most of us see enough of the hard s:de of life, hear enough of the woe and weariness, adversity and animosity, disappointment and d saster in life, without being formally reminded thereof. The newspaper finds more readers when it announces a ships wreck than when it chronicles launch. Its column of obituaries is more sought for than its wedding announcements.
 A firm failure is read by hundred persons to one who will read of an ''Open- ing" and man who steals a thousand dollars receives more newspaper mo- toriety than thousand men who should deposit hundred thousand dollars each. It is the natural elasticity of the mind and heart that keeps the average man hopeful while the sad and evil things of life are running before his eyes or are being poured into his cars. There should be a systematic effort on the part of all people to see the bright side, speak of the hopeful things. When a majority of business men talk the dark side of finance there is Il panic; when a majority of workingmen see the dark side of life there is a Nihil'stc ten dency. There is too much danger in every direction for any encouragement of the already too active tendency to see the evil in business and society. Let us see the bright side and call other peoples attention to it.-N '. Heraid.
