Milk popular as 8eyerage.

Milk is the latest, craze in the drinking
line. The fluid was made fashionable by
Miss Ellen Terry. tho actress, / under
stand, who drank 1t freely, when the An
g~lonaniacs followed her example because
it was so English you know Now it. is
soldin saloons and drug stores, and there
are lunch houses like Delicatessen, each
of which retails as high as 125 gallons 9
day by the glass. Think of enc place sell
ing 125 gallons of milk a day to drinkers.
Such d thing would not have been dreamt
Of i've years ago.
The popularity of milk rs a beverage is
due also tic the fact that it is not only fat
tening, but that tits a stimulant also, and
a better yitalizer than any ~phosphates or
other medicines the doctor can prescribe
Tor you.%I stimulates without intoxieat-
ing which is a Further recommendation
for it. There are plenty of people who
think it u good joke when a newspaper
~paragrapher writes about milk that is half
water; bat there is 40 joke in a thing of
that kind forgps milkmen. The best milk
yet submitted to chemical test has been
and is still found here in st. Louis, where
the wageriis s6.1 per cent. of the mixture,
1870 per cent. being fats and other solids.
The milk Is Al, the percentage of solids
being higher than New York, where the

Traininga Congregation TO sing.

A BAPTIST minister ut Boston adds to his
Theological Qualifications Il thorough
knowledge of music. Instead of hiring a
quartette CT choir he proposes to assume
Tbs entire work Of developing from the
congregation IL volunteer gathering of
singers. and thus to have eventually com
gregational singing of a hitherto unknown
quality. Members of the congregation
will be taughtfegularly how to sing. and
in the course OF a few months sthe musical
pastor expects to have singing equal to,
if not better, than an ordinary choir, and
the religious services will become OF once
more in keeping with the spirit of preise
proper to church singing than could be
the case should the singing be rendered
merely by a collection Of unpaid and unin-
terested singers.-Chieago Journal.

Fine breeding of Household Pets.

a H
The fine breeding of household pets has
not been carried out in5America SO extern
sively as in the old world. So recent isthe
occupation here that there are eompar-
atively few breeders. In foreign countries
the fine breeding of cats can be traced back
for centuries. In Angoro, Persia, cats, dogs
and goats have ever been in great repute
for their long. silky hair. In Malta the
knights Of st. John bred celebrated dogs.
Mn. Hugh Dalziel, of London, speaks of
Sicily as the home Of the Maltese dog, but if
he will refer TO British historians OF a cen
fury ago he will find shat these dogs were
bred by the Knights and inhabitants of the
Risie of Malta. IN the great monastery at
Ghartreuse, in France, celebrated domes-
tic animals were bread from the tineo e its
origin sold 20 aid the monks in theil
| work. Here originated the far-famed
CartilHsian eat, which is somewhat more
/ bluethan the Maltese cat, and colored blacb
on the hips and bottoms Of the pGws.
III China the most marvellous breeding
| the world has ever seen has heen in prog
ress for over 1000 years. Here Is the golc
fish of great size, having ii second tail, pen
| dulous from the first, which is very long
and flowing, and which was original,
bred on the ordinary animal. Here alst
are strange cats, with peculiar ear tuft.
and mutfs, dogs with long silky hair, ant
hairless dogs. America has no typca
dogs save those bred by aborigines, no cat'
save the domesticated tortoise-sheI o
South America; but all the dogs and eat
brought TO our shores have become 81
mixed that the original types have nearl,
all been lost. We have, however, produced

stretched in the orchard, and on these he
perfected his invention, first ~telegraphing
from one wire to another forty feet distant
His first successful experiment in this was
made in 1879, when he was but 10 years of
age. His patent for the inductive telegraph
issued July IL, 1881, the application
having been made in 1880. This invention
promises to ~fevolutionize the system of
handling railroad trains, and is regarded as
the most important step yet taken relating to
the application of electricity. He also has
valuable Improvements on his inductive tele-
graph apparatus, issued q year later than
the original patent. Few inventors of any
country haye accomplished SO much at so
early an age, and Mr.. Silvey's wonderful
achievements have naturally attracted a
great deal of attention to himself. He is a
practical, industrious, young mechanic,
modest even to diffidence, and apparently
unconscious of the high rank he has taken in
the world of progress.

be the most promising young inventor before
the public, is William i. Silvey, of Cincin-
natl. He is but p years of age, md already

electrical progress. He was born at Castle
ton. Ind, in lso0. His father, Zachary sill
vey, has been dead thirteen years. His
mother, Mrs. Catharine Silvey, resides on
the homestead farm, near Castleton. Young
Silvey only had the advantages Of a common
school education. Electrical science, for
which he neglected everything else, has been
his constant study since he was 16 years old
He has pursued this study under
great disadvantages, his workshops being
such odd corners as he could ap
propriute to his use in the outbnildings OF
his mothers farm. His experiments in in
