WOmanly Unself1slIness.

-. Mrs. Mary Chapman, the young wife
of settler in the central part of Dakota
Territory, remained alone at home while
her husband was away looking after his
cattle. A storm came on suddenly, and
it was nearly three days before he was
able to get back through the drifts, and
when he entered the cabin he found his
wife lying insensible on the bed. There
was just food enough left for one meal
for her husband, and she had gone with
out eating for two days rather than touch
crust Of it. When brought back to
consciousness the noble little woman
threw her arms around her husbands
neck and cried: "Oh, Jim! thought
you might come home nearly dead with
hunger" yhis typical wife had true
soul sister in the heroine story that was
not long ago published in London pa,

Precocious Pickpockets at Weddings.

A London Telegraph communication
from Vienna recites that "a band of ju-
venile thieves varying in age from eight
to thirteen, were brought up before a
suburban police magistrate. They picked
pockets habitually in churches, particu'
farly at marriage ceremonies. One
urchin, barely eight years of age, who
had stolen BRIDES purse and handker-
chief, was asked how, being so small, he
could put his hand into the pocket of a
grown up person. MY companion car.
ried me in his arms, replied the boy. 1t
transpired from further evidence that
several OF these precocious young male
factors had acquired extraordinary pro:
fciency in their criminal art. The band
to which they belonged had existed for
two years without being detected. No
adults were connected with it, the lads
operating on their own account. Their
place of meeting was in church every
Sunday morning."

The Lessons of "Unser Fritz" Case.

The greatest doctors in Europe don't seem

Thus are the Garfield and Grant episodes
repeated, and public confidence in expert"
medical knowledge is again shaken.
The effects revulsion.
Since the fatal days of 1888 many OF the
doctrines of the schoolmen concerning ex.
tensive medication have been abandoned,
and all schools of practice are more and more
relying upon old-fashioned simple root and
herb preparations and careful nursing-the
only reliances known to our ancestors. -.
These methods and reliances are Illustrated
to-day in series of old-fashioned roots and
herbs preparations recently given to the
world by the wen-known proprietors of

families, and rescued for popular use, and is

A jug of spring sarsaparilla was just as
necessary in the "winter supplies of fifty
years ago as was a barrel of pork, and
famous medical authority says that the very
general prevalence Of the use of such prep
aration as Log Cabin Sarsaparilla explains
the rugged health of our ancestors.
While Warmers Leg Cabin Sarsaparilla is
an excellent remedy f,r all seasons of the
year, it is particularly valuable in the spring,
when the system is full of sluggish blood and
requires a natural constitutional tonic and
invigorator to resist colds and pneumonia,
and the effects Of a long winter. Philo NJ.
Parsons, clerk of the City Hotel Of Hartford,
Conn.,, was prostrated with q cold which, he
said, Seemed to settle through my body. l
neglected it and the result was my blood be-
came impoverished and poisoned, indicated
by inflamed eyes. I was treated, but my
eyes grew worse. I was obliged to wear a
shade over them. I feared that would be
obliged to give up work"
"Under the operation Of Warmers Log
Cabin Sarsaparilla and Liver Pills." he says,
'the sore and inf1amed eyes disappeared.
My blood, know, is in q healthier condition
than it has been for years. I have much
better appetite. 1 shall take several more
bottles for safety's sake. Warmers Log
Cabin Sarsaparilla is a great purifier and l
most heartily recommend it..

other preparation of similar name that can
equal it. The name Of its manufacturers is-a
guarantee of its superior worth.

technicalities of an advanced medical science

Romantic Discovery of a Tenor.

Since the days of George Sand the
operatic tenor has invariably been re-
regarded as q romantic parsonage. The
career of NJ. Bernard, the new tenor of
the Paris opera, bears out the romantic
tradition to the full. Two years ago he
was a working carpenter in Toulou.
France; now he struts upon the stage of
the grand opera. He was discovered in
properly romantic fashion also. NJ.
Hartmann, the music publisher, was pass
ing along the streets of Toulon and
heard Bernard carolling glecfully as he
worked at his bench. Struck with the
singular beauty of the singers voice, NJ.
Hartmann made inquiries on the spot,
and engaged his newly-found tenor to
appear in the "Herodiade," which at
that time was in rehearsal at Toulon.
Since then N. Bernard has studied at
Naples and Milan, and has made good
his lack of musical knowledge. When
first engaged by NJ. Hartmann he con-
fessed that he did not know single note

Limburger Cheese in America.

The New York Board of Health re-
Gently destoryed long ton of bad lin
burger cheese, and the Sun declares that
the occurrence shows the expertness of
the officers of the Health Department.
Any man who can distinguish between
good and bad limburger cheese deserves
commendation. 1t will interest lovers
of the fragrant cheese to know that it is
growing in public favor, and that
America is taking the lead in its produc-
ton. Indeed, little or none of it is now
made in Limburg, the city where it was
first manufactured.
Limburg is a town of Belgium, once
the capital of the Territory of Limburg,
which was after 1880 divided between
Holland and Belgium. 1t is ruined
town, with population of only 5000,
although it was formerly strongly
fortified and gay place. Limburg cheese,
once of its principal articles of mGnufac-
ture, is now made in the neighbor.ng
town of Herve. This, however, is prin-
cipally used for European consumption.
America is to-day making as good
limburger cheese as can be found in the
world. Much of it is manufactured in
Wisconsin, but Oneida and other coun-
ties in New York State produce limbur.
ger that is not to be sneezed at. Of
course the people of the metropolis use
more of it than the residents of any
other city, but Philadelphia crowds US
pretty close.
The proprietor Of one of the great
cheese stores on Chambers street led the
way down into the aromatic cellar of his
big establishment and showed the re-
porter several hundred cubes of lin
burger cheese which a workman was
wrapping up in brown paper. Each
cheese weighed two pounds.
''The tales they tell about how linn
burger cheese is made are matters of
felton," said be. 1T is prepared like
any other cheese, but the whey is not
pressed out and its manufacture is after
what we call the cold process. 1t is the
whey in an advanced and aggressive
state that gives limburger cheese its
flavor. You will, perhaps be surprised
to learn that about 10, 600 cases of linn.
burger cheese are made in this country
every year. Every case contains on the
average 1875 pounds, and thus Americas
annual product amounts to $3.50, 900

A Novel Detective for Publishers.

The little stamp that has begun to ap-
pear in the inside of books recently
published is part of novel and very
clever method of preventing "scalping," "
fraudulent insolvency and other prac-
tices which have greatly damaged the
publishing trade. The stamp is num-
bered and copyrighted, recorded by the
publisher and registered in the office of
the Publishers Protective Union. A
duplicate stamp is bound into the cover
of the volume and cannot be reached
without destroying the work. The book
can thus be traced just like valuable
watch movement or railway ticket and
identified at any time without trouble by
the publisher. The new system came
into being in March this year, and is
use all over the country.

Raspberry Farming.

One of the aids to farm profits, and q
pleasant as well as practical one, is the
culture Of small fruits, among which the
raspberry takes first rank, says w. J.
Green, of the Ohio Experiment Station.
Farmers near market can cultivate them
as readily as corn, and they seldom bring
Improbable prices. On light soils, where
there is but little heayiDg from frost,
they may be planted in the fall. The
best method IS to open furrow six to
eight inches deep, putting the plants in
the bottom.
The red kinds may have the furrow
entirely filled at once, and if set in the
fall the soil should be heaped above the
plant several inches. Blackberries should
not be covered deeply, two or three
inches being sufficient, and then the soil
should be drawn around the plants as
they grow. Mu!ching where fall plant.
ing is followed is good to prevent heav-
ing. Six feet between rows for the reds
and seven for the blacks is about right,
and eighteen inches and two feet between
the plants respectively in the rows is
practiced. Upon heavy soils early spring
is the best time for Planting. Care
should be taken when removing plants
at this time that the young sprouts do
not get broken. When the shoots have
grown eighteen or twenty inches they
should be nipped back. This summer
pruning causes the plants to thicken up
and become self-supporting without
stakes. Numerous side branches will
grow out, forming plant at once bushy
and productive. These remarks apply
particularly to blackcaps.
After fruiting the old wood should be
cut away, and canes of last years growth
and all wood of the main stalks above
three feet, and the laterals trimmed back
to within one and half or two feet
from the main stalk. These prunings
should invariably be burned to destroy
the insect enemies of the plant, which
have taken refuge on them. When a
field begins to fail, which it will d. after
four or i've crops, it is better to plant a
new one and entirely destroy the old.
Hill planting is often practiced with
red raspberrics, and in this case the hills
should be five feet apart each way, using
two or three plants for each. But two
OF three sprouts should be allowed to the
plants, and if grown in this way sum-
mer pruning as for blacks may be prac-
tised.--Ne,o York Herald.

AGRICULTURAL.
TOPICS OF INTEREST RELATIVE
TO FARM AND GARDEN.
Best Time to Sow Beans.

In answer to question as to the best
mode and time of planting or sowing
beans, the Country Gcatlcman says:
The soil should be we'll drained, or
not liable to be soaked; moder-
ately manure on previous crop, or with
fine manure we'll worked in; if made too
rich, the growth may be too rank at the
expense of the seeds. As the plants are
easily injured by frost, the planting
should be done after corn painting.
They may be planted in hills or drills
about twice or three times as thick as
corn, the drills being two and a half
or three feet apart. If in hills. foot or
afoot and half, with four to six plants
in the hill. Small kinds will require
half bushel to the acre; large sorts,
with fewer seeds may need bushel.
Keep the crop clean and mellow by
frequent fiat cultivation. No crop is
more quickly injured by neglect, or more
benefited by clean and finished culture.

A Costly Dish of Baked Beans.

One day not long since q well-known
citizen of one of the busiest towns in
Sagadahoc county returned from drive
into the country, late in the afternoon,
with $500, the proceeds of his days col
lection, in his inside pocket. He was
too late to deposit the money in the viii
lage bank, for the bank had closed. He
went to his house and began to cudgcl
his brain for safe place to put the cash
during the night. lie had great horror
of burglars, and felt a little nervous
about his $500. The gentleman roamed
over the house, and finally dropped into
the kitchen. The fire in the kitchen
stove was out. His wife was away, and
wouldn't return till late in the evening,
and, of course, wouldn't think of build
ing fire in the stove till the following
morning. He opened the oven door and
laid the greenbacks in the farthest corner
of the bottom of, the oven.
The capitalist went to bed, and at
about 10 o'clock in the evening his wife
awoke h m to askif he wouldn't 60 down
cellar and bring up another hod of coal.
She said: 'I'vc just built up hot fire
and put the beans in. but don't believe
there is enough coal on the fire to keep
i. all night"
ssHave you built fire in the kitchen
stove9" shouted the Sagadahoc husband.
"Why, yes; isn't that all right?' said
his wife.
"All right! That pot of beans cost
me $780," shouted the capitalist: and he
leaped from the room and down into the
kitchen where the savory odor of baked
beans and brown bread and a roaring
fire in the kitchen stove greeted him.
He pulled open the oven door, regard
less of burnt fingers, but he was too late.
The bank notes had been cremated, and
only handful of grim, crisp ashes re-
mained of the fat $500 roll of IS and
los and 20s.--B3ston Herald.
