A NOTABLE CHANGE.

A great many things that were formerly wasted are now made useful. One of the most notable instances is cotton seed, which was once burned or thrown away. Now about 800, 900 tons of it are used annually in making 2s, ,0OO,00 gallons of oil. In 8 lecture delivered before the Franklin Insti- tute of Philadelphia Mir. Robert Grimshaw gave an interesting account of the uses of cotton-seed oil
 Many establishments of the coast of Maine put up young shad and herring in cotton seed oil, as sardines. Nine-tenths of the European sardines are now cooked and boxed in the same oil, instead of the olive oil form erly in universal use. In the manufacture of lard it was first employed only to lower the chilling or stifening point of stock intended for very cold climates, but at present three- quarters of all the lard made contains this oil, in proportions of from 10 to 25 per cent, and the public prefer the mixture. There fore manufactures who began it's use secretly now take pains to have the fact known, as an argument in favor of the purity, cleanli- ness and heallhfullness of the product. To correct it's auidity beef fat is used, so that what is known as the refined lard of com- merce now consists of three ingredients, hogs lard, pressed beef fat, and refined cot ton-seed oil. Some of the manufacturers use no hogs fat all. and claim for their pro- duct superiority over the other on the ground that disease is transmitted from swine.
 Cotton-seed oil is also used for illuminat- ing, and ranks between sperm, which has the highest illuminating power of all the burning oils, and lard oil, which comes next. It is employed in the making of soap for laundry, bath, and toilet purposes, and the woolen mill soap made from it is so far su- perior to all others that in this country it is now used chiefly; and the manu factories of England, Scotland, and the Continent prefer it to large extent. It is more and more substituted for olive oil for all purposes whatsoever. It is used to some extent as cosmetic in place of vaseline and similar sub. stances. A washing powder is made from the soap stock; an oil cake as food for cattle is made from the seeds after the oil has been expressed, the ashes from the hulls are util- izsd ss fertilizer for sugar cane and root crops.
 As time goes on other uses will probably be found for this valuable oil. It is making rapid progress in public favor.

 But Killarney will ever remain g shrine for lovers of the beautiful because each soul coming here is, even though imperceptib1y and imperfectly, impressed with all of, and more than, these. And that fact as an en- tirety is scarcely fully revealed until one stands here upon Carrantuohills 1oftiest peak. For it is then that the just and equa- ble distribution of natures highest and most impressive elements of beauty in this won- der spot of Erin come clearly and wholly to the sight of eye and mind. The spectator at Killarney will find wood, water and noun tain in every conceivable form and aspect, so diversified, and in such unlimited change, that it is impossible for the eye to rest from any point upon any spot where some combi- nation of the three does not return picture of beauty or grandeur. Entirely aside from historic or religious association of thought, and with every ruin, shrine or legend, so quickening to the imagination, expunged, for this simple physical fact alone, the Kill larney region will ever remain the most beau- tiful spot in the world. Forest is here in trackless waste where the red Geer hide; in grove, in copse; in matted masses hanging from inaccessible heights. Shrubbery is here in such luxuriance that it's richness and pro- fusion cannot be elsewhere equaled outside the tropics. Water is here in such glints and gleamings as no pen or brush can ade- quately depict in lakes that startle one as if in sudden awakening consciousness of sur- passing dream; in torrents solemn and migh- ty; in cascades flmy as streams of lace; in rivers tortuous and wild, songful and mur murous; in pools deep. dark and silent. Mountains are here with soft and billowy as- cents; with crags and cliffs majestic, where eagles nest and scream; with peaks above the clouds All these iu"all forms are Kill larney's so tenderly, so sweetly and so sub- Timely intermingled, that the reverent heart, full of it's surpassing loveliness, can no less than throb with loftiest exaltation and ex- claim: "Here stood the great Artdcer, and lovingly builded and blessed!"

Nearly every one loves canary
birds and takes delight in caring for

what is best to feed them. They
should be supplied every day with
fresh water and in hot weather should
have a dish large enough for them to

from their drinking cups. Cabbage
and fresh lettuce may be given them;
also crackers and a piece OF apple.

An Opening for Americans.

1t is stated as a matter of stats
tics that TAP professional gardeners
have come to this country from
Europe within the past year, OF
whom 800 were from Germany, 2SS
from England, 80 from Scotland, 40
from France, % from Austria, and
Bohemia, and 2 from Belgium. This
seemingly disproportionate number
of skilled horticulturists among the
immigrants is partially accounted
Tor by the fact that many who
class themselves as gardeners at
Castle garden are really scarcely
more than farm hands aud go to
work as such in this country. On
the other hand, there are many
gardeners who come to this country
in the cabin instead OF the steerage,
and of whom, of course, no accurate
record is made.
Mr.. Henderson junior of Peter
Henderson & Co. once said that
fully 80 per cent. of the profess
sional gardeners in this country were
of foreign birth and that they came
in about the proportion indicated
by the statistics for last year, the
most from Germany, Englishmen
being second and Scotchmen third
in numbers. At one time, he said,
there was scarcely an American-born
gardener in the country, but the
proportion of them is continually
increasing. Horticulture is q much
older science in Europe than in this
country, and it is natural, he said,
that professional horticulturists
should chiefly come from there.
Whatever the foreigners do here, how
ever, is an object lesson to American
gardeners, and the foreigners them
selves become Americans in the
second generation, so that it is only
matter of time when American
gardeners will rank with that ofoth-
er countries in skill as we'll as in
numbers.-New York Sun.

He knows now that he loves this
girl who has been so innocently
happy with him-loves her with the
truest, sweetest love OF his life.
At last Laura's dusky head ap-
pears above the waves.
Her great. startled eyes meet the
white face of her lover as he bends
toward her, and directly he lifts her

She is trembling in every limb; but

When they find his body later on
down the stream, they see a ragged
cut across the temple, where he must
have struck on the rocks at the loot
of the cliff, else that savage clasp
about Laura's form would never
have been loosened, and she must
have persisted also.
Duston takes her home to her
father, and received his husky thanks
in silence, then goes away to his tent.
lie wishes to be alone tor a little
while to think.
But he comes back to the little,
brown cabin in the afternoon, and
goes straight to Abel Cheney.
do you think that YOU could
spare Laura to me, Mr.. Cheney?" he
asks.
The old man looks at him sharply
from under his shaggy brows.
What dye mean, young MANI"
THAT | love her, and want her for
my wife"
Abel Cheney looks him over with a
smile. Duston looks thorough
aristocrat.
Laura don't know nothing about
your fine world Mr.. Duston. She's
just a little wild fawn-pretty enough
in the woods, but not fit to be shut
up in grand house."
" May l ask her?" insists the young
man.
oval, l low l can't prevent it,"
answers old Abel, dryly.
So Duston strides away to the
woods, and finds Laura walking idly
to and fro.
She looks at him with shy, startled
eyes, very like the wild fawn which
the old man has called her.
Laura dear, | used to think N.Y.
self pretty good sort of fellow I'M
til | knew you; but now, knowing
how pure, and sweet, and innocent
your life has been, feel that am
not good enough Tor you.
Yet | love you, and want you for

once, Laura. but she deceived and
Tilted me, and | grew to believe all
women were like her until ca me here,
and now, dear, l love you better than
ever loved her. Will you have me,
Laura?"
He is smiling now, but his face is
very pale as he holds out two strong
white hands to her.
Laura thinks she must be in n
dream; she can frame no words for
an answer.
Timidly she placed her hands in
his, wishing they did not look SO
brown.
She is seized with a sudden, wild
longing to be perfect for the sake of
her princely lover.
When Godfrey Duston brings his
brownie faced wife home with him there
is a fine excitement.
But she is SO pretty, SO original,
ind, withal, takes so readily to her
husbands mode of living, that she
is soon very popular.
Old Abel Cheney never visits his
daughters elegant home.
He says he would miss the trees
and water, and that he is too old to
learn new ways.
But Laura often visits him.
He has housekeeper, and the lit
tie brown cabin has many Injuries

Afarmer who rears extra fine calves
never turns them out into a pasture

bran, oil meal and perhaps some

takes less time to feed them than
when in a field and they do not waste
as much. They get well broken and
