A. Bridgeland, who has had charge of the
purchase of General HarrisOn's horses, re-
turned from Kentucky, bringing with him
another fine thoroughbred for the White
house stables, making four he has bought.
Three of these horses are matches, 167&

under the saddle. they will be shipped to
Washington this week. Colonel BridgeiRnd,
who is authority on horsefesh, says that
three of the generals four horses are
among the finest in the land, and he does
not think the White house stables ever held
q finer lot of car iage horses than it will
during the coming administration.

SALT IN AGRICULTURE.
What Is to be the end Of this ?'' ara New

cease manufacturing salt because Kansas has so
ply in few years all ths salt used for ordinary
purposes west of the Mississippi river. But 9th
er uses OF Ealt will b9 discovered, and old ones
greatly extended. The farmers OF western and
northwestern and central ates, viii have some
thing to do in developing the salt industry Of
KANSAS as WeA4 as OF the older sRl5 cenCers. Farm
ers viii use salt as a fertilizer. Prof. Shelton
shows its value IN this respect on wheat. A dress
sing o. 500 pounds OF salt per acre on two plots
gave an average increase of close to 9 per cent.
of cleaned grain mpared with plots not so
so dressed as well as increase of straw. This

would show a profit on the transaction. There

Cremation in France.

First law was passed permitting free
dom of burial. Then the municipal
council of Paris built crematory with
the city's money and presented it to the
city. The building is in Pere la Chaise,
the famous cemetery of Paris. 1t is a
handsome building, with well kept
grounds. 1t is rot far from the tragic
spot where the French communists were
stood up in II row and shot by order of
the French government of the time.
The first incarceration in the crematory
took place in january, 1889. During
two months in the summer there were
thirty, which is a larger number than
like establishments in America can show.
But those who were incinerated at Paris
have been mostly cranks and philoso-
piers. The first person of any distinc-
ton whose body was reduced to ashes
was a member of the French assembly,
who died in August.

him get well. To American surgeons
belongs the credit of improving greatly
the treatment of wounds in the stomach
and bowels.
Yet more magnificent field than all
is gradually opening before our scientific
medical men. To illustrate; a patient
will be stricken with paralysis of an
arm or hand; he will. perhaps, have
commissions. The surgeon will examine
his case critically. He will presently de-
eide that the trouble is owing TO u tumor
or arrangement of II given part of the
brain. The patient is etherized, his
skull is trepanned and the brain found
to be diseased just where the man of
science predicted.
Science has decided that particular
portions of the brain control particular
portions of the body. Exact knowledge
of this branch of physiology is in its in
fancy. For the next generation it will
ba an absorbing and wonderful study.
1t is called localization Of the functions
of the brain.
Our modern surgeons can successfully
remove goitres. A tumor has even been
removed from the spinal cord. Only a
few of the triunlphs of !nodern surgery
arc here named. Yet, wonderful rs they
seem. it ten,pers our self graduation to
reflect that century Ecrce skillful sur
gcons of that day will look back with
pitying contempt upon the clumsy, ig-
noraut operators of our time.

comparatively few who cannot afford i,c
do this. That part taken out, half the
dread of the work is done. Summer OF
winter the shirts and collars are bus:

begin by supposing that that part Of the
family linen goes to the laundry. !
That leaves washing larger than most
women want to do at once; so on Friday,
when the rooms are swept and busted,
change the bed linen. Friday evening
put it to soak, and it is u very easy mat
ter on Saturday morning to boil It and
hang it out Thaabed linen is not hard,
but large and heavy, and it is a good
deal gotten out Of the way, and the Mon.
day wa,l. does not seem nearly so hard.
The baking can then be done, and yop
will be all ready for Sunday. On Mon
day the remainder of the washing can be
done. On Tuesday the clothes may be
folded AMI necessary baking done. On
Wednesday the ironing; Thursday may
be a rather restful day. That is, the
basket Of clothes looked over and mend:
ed, and no extra work done. That
brings you around again to Friday, with
its cleaning.

out for You, and you may take which
you like Only, whichever way you de-
ciie, keep to that way, and don't be per-

way you lose all ideas Of system.

Statistics of the drygoods importing
trade for the past twenty years are inter
esting. They show that while our inn
ports in other directions have largely in
creased, in textile fabrics, except those
made from jute and flax, the growth
has been very small. 1t is not that our
dudes and DANES are less gorgeous in
their apparel than of old. On the con-
trary, they never before reveled in such
luxury as they do at present 1t is that
our cotton, silk and woolen looms have
become so skillful that we now make the

In this manner somebody has been "es-

of the western states at about six times
the value of all the farms themselves.
The extravagant story reused up Michi-
gan to endeavor to arrive at something
like accuracy in this matter, as far as
that state was concerned, 1t. is mani
festly impossible to get at the exact
truth, since so many mortgages are not
recorded.
Michigan ascertained that within her
