Hints TO Young Scribblers.

In writing with lead pencil care
should be taken not to dip the pen too
deeply in the muciIage bottle.
Avery convenient article for young
writers is a blank memorandum book
in which to jot down the sums of mon
ey YOU receive for your articles. A
small one will do.
The greatest care should be taken in
selecting copy papers. Some editors
prefer a cream tinted note paper,
scented, with a beaten gold finish for
poems and heavy ragged edge linen
for love stories. This is when you
commence to write. Later on the re-
verse of wall paper and the backs OF
old envelopes will do.
IN case You want your Ms. returned,
it is well to insert hint to that effect
in your letter; otherwise the editor is
apt to accept it against his better
Judgment
a good method Of disposing of MSS.
which have been found unavailable by
numerous editors is to offer them, with
out limiting of their previous rejection,
to the rag man, to be paid for at his
regular rates.
If you send manuscript to a mag
azine and it is not published in eight
years you are at liberty to write to the
editor about it. In such cases post
age should be prepaid.
In commencing serial story care
should be taken not to give the reader
too much of an idea in the first chap
ter of what YOU are going to write
about - Tim

Crab Racing.

At Trouville. where one gets so
weary every morning of the bad hour
or two that comes between the bath
and the lunch, says the Youths Conn
Da1lion, any innovation calculated to
pass away the time is hailed with de-
light, and the person suggesting it IS
considered worthy OF the cross OF the
Legion Of Honor.
Some eight years ago. when every
BODY on the beach was talking scandal
or yawning over the morning papers,
some genius thought of racing with
crabs, and in two days it became the
standard morning amusement.
Everyone was hunting for a crab.
Size was no object; speed and agility
were the requisite qualifications. The
track was on the wet, firm sand, close
to the water, and the goal was formed
by peoging down at the waters edge a
cord about fifty feet in length, raised
by pegs about two inches above the
sand, SO that the crabs could pass I'M
der the line in place of breasting it.
The starting-point was about twelve
feet inland and was line tightly peg
ged down level with the sand. The
owners distinguished their individual
crabs by sticking differently colored
waters on their backs.
Each crab was held byits owner clear
of the starting-line until the word was
given; then they were simultaneously
released and a most curious sight en-
sued Every crab would start for the
water at top speed, siding along for
dear life. Some went as straight as an
arrow; others diverged in all direc-
tons. Occasionally two would run,
side by side, touch, clinch, and fight,
grasping each other with their claws,
locked in an embrace nothing but the
rising tide would release.
Others would be going right away,
moving more and more quickly the
nearer they approached the water, I'M
til, Siding under the tape, one or an
other would win.
No one was allowed to touch his
crab after the start, but as experience
proved that water would separate the
fighters it became permissible to hold a
soaked sponge over them and squeeze
the water on the combatants.
This game became so prevalent that
specially smOOthed tracks were made
every morning, ana II a phenomenal
" fleet crab was discovered he was not
allowed to return to his native element
with single victory to his credit, but
was whipped up with a small net and
deposited in a pail for safe-keeping I'M
til required to run again.
Betting was the order of the day,
and books were made as for a horse
race. There is record of one crab
having won for his owner no less than
$40, 900 before he slipped under the net
and escaped, in all probability uncon-

How to Write on Ice with Ink.

Not many of you my children, will
care to write your letters on ice, even
during the summer months. But |
was rather struck with the novel idea
when a boy of the Red SchOol-house
told the dear Little School-ma'am
a bit of news that lately had come to
this country from Austria. 1t appears
that Francis Joseph, the Emperor of
Austria, has n cOuntry-seat near
Vienna, and on this fine royal estate is
a lake which in winter is used as a
skating pond. Well, during one of
the latest Austrian ''cold snaps an
expert Vienna gentleman went skating
there, with a little reservoir of ink adj
iusted to the back of his skate in such
a way as to allow the ink to flow out
in fine, steady stream. Then off he
started, and before he had skated long.
there appeared in his rapid track the
name of the Grown Princess, beauti-
fully and plainly written upon the ice.

SINGULAR TENDERNESS.
HOW Mr.. CoRLISs PROTECTED A ROBIN
AND HER HELPLESS BROOD.

Mr.. Corliss (the famous engine builder
of Providence, not long before his death
had occasion to build an addition to his
manufaetory-a big 81, for his addit-
ional machinery. To prepare the found
alton for this l., it was necessary to
remove ledge of rock by blasting.
The men to do the work on the addition
had been employed and put on the pay
roll, the materials had been purchased
and, brought to the building, and the
| work of blasting had begun. The next
morning Mr.. Corliss passed by the place
where work was proceeding, when the
foreman in charge, knowing his interest
in pretty things, called him.
"See here, Mr.. Coriss," said he,
"here's birds nest that we've found,
and that's got to CO."
He showed the manufacturer a robin
sitting upon nest that had been built,
fast and snug, In crevice of the rock,
amorg some bushes that grew there.
The bird flew off her nest as the men
came near, and showed five blue eggs
that looked as if they had just been
laid.
else?" asked Mr. Corliss.
I'm afraid not, sir. We'd tear it to
pieces getting it out, and it isn't at all
likely that-you could get the bird to go
to sitting again anywhere else. We've
got to go on, SO We may as well rip it
out end throw the eggs away"
ono" said Corliss, ''we won't disturb
her. Let her bring ont her brood right
there"
"But we'll have to stop the work on
the building"
"Let it stop, then"
And so orders were given that operat-
| ions on the addition should be suspend
ed. They were suspended; and the
hands stood still, drawing their pay for
doing nothing, or next to nothing, while
the robin sat on her nest with her air of
great consequence and Jealous attention
to business, and had her food brought
| to her by her mate, and az last Matched
her brood. And then there we're three
weeks more to go by, at least, before the
young ones could fly. Corliss visited
the nest frequently, not with any unease-
mess or Impotence to have The robin
and the young ones out Of the way, but
| with a genuine interest in their growth.
The old birds had all the time they
wanted, and when at last they had stern
Iy helped the clumsy, reluctant young
tiers over the edge of the nest, and they
showed themselves able to get about on
their own hook, orders were given to re-
sumo the building operations; and the
dull boom of the gunpowder tearing the
rocks apart was heard where the birds
had peeped. -BOStOR transcript.

A QUESTION OF HEALTH.
WHAT BAKING POWDER SHALL WE UsEa

WHAT BAKING POWDER SHALL WE UsE2
This plain question comes home TO
every house keeper. We all desire pure
and wholesome food, and this cannot be
had with the use of impure or poisonous
baking powder. There can be no longer
question that all the cheaper, lower
grades of baking powders contain either
alum, lime or phosphate acid. As loath
as we may be TO admit so much against
what may have been some of our house
hold gods, there can be no gainsaying
the unanimous testimony of the official
chemists. Indeed, analysts seem to find
no baking power entirely free from some
one OF these Objectionable ingredients
except the Royal, and that they report
as chemically pure. We find some of
the baking powders advertised as pure,
to contain, under the tests of Professors
Chandler Habirshaw and others. nearly
twelve per cent. of lime, while others are
made from alum with no cream of tartar.
This, we persume, accounts for their lack
planned of by the cook, and for the bitter
taste found in the biscuits SO frequently
complained of by ourselves.
But aside from the inferiority of IL g
work done by these powders, the physic-
ians assure us that lime and alum taken
into the system IN such quantities as this
are injurious. The physiological effects
are Indigestion, dyspepsia, or worse evils.
The question naturally arises. why do
these cheap baking powder makers use
these things? Alum is three cents a
pound, lime still cheaper, while cream of
tartar is thirty-tive or forty. The reas-
ons for the chemical purity of the ROYAL
Baking Powder were recently given in
the New York Times in an interesting
description of a new method for refining
argOls. or crude cream of tartar 1t
seems that it is only under this process
that cream of tartar can be freed from
the lime natural to it and rendered chem
ically pure; that the paents and plant
for this cost the Royal Baking Powder
Company about half million dollars.
and that they maintain exclusive control
of the rights.
Professor McMurtrie, late chief chem
list of the Department of Agriculture, at
Washington, ID. c., made an examination
OF this process, and reported upon the
results attained in the refined cream of
tartar. The following extract from his
| report would seem to answer the quest
ion repeated at the head of this article.
and which is so frequently propounded
by the housekeeper.
II have examined the cream of tartar
used by the Royal Baking Powder Com

How Gourds Climb.

The way the gourds climb is by
means of spiral, curled tendrls, which
are in reality small abortiye stipules OF
leaf-appcndages, specialized for the
work of clinging to the external object,
be it bQugh or stem of some other plant,
over which the beautiful parasite rap
idly spreads itself The tendriIs push
themselves out on every side, revolving
as they 90, till they reach some slender
twig or leaf-stalk to which they can at
tach themselves. 1t is curious and in.
teresting to watch them as they grow,
and to see how closely their movements
simulate intelligent action. The little
curled whorls 90 feeling about on every
side for suitable foOthold, cropping
blindly, as it were, in search of a sup
port, and revolving slowly in wide
sweeping curves. until at last they hap
pen to lay hold with their growing end
of proper object. Once found, they
seem to seize it eagerly with their lit
tie fingers for in the gourd the ten
drills are branched, not simply, and to
wrap it round at once many times over
in their tight embrace. 1t is wonder
full how far they will go up out of their
way in their CROPPING quest of proper
foothold, and how, when ut length
they stumble upon it, they will Took
for all the world as if they had known
beforehand exactly when and where to
search for it. These actions come far
closer to intelligence than most people
imagine; they are deliberately per
formed in responsive answer to eXter-
nal stimuli, and only take place when
the right conditions combine to excite
them. -PopulQr Science
