BRINE-sALTING BUTTER
A Method That Has Given Excellent Sat
isfs Ct ION to Consumers.

Method That Has Given Excellent Sat
faction to Consumers.
The demand for less salt In butter
has called attention anew to brine
sailing. and think that whenever the
maker has mastered the method this
brlne-salted butter has given best sat
isfaction to consumers. 1t has been
wrongly supposed that salt used for
sailing butter strikes into the fats
themselves, and pickles them, az we
assume 1t does In the case OF meat. But
all that Is accomplished is to substitute
for the water left in the butter, usually
from ten to fifteen per cent, "a saturated
brine. or water containing all the salt
IL can hold in solution at ordinary
temperatures. At the Minnesota Ex-
pertinent Station it was found that
butter fats can not be made to absorb
salt or brine; the particles OF fat are
only surrounded by this solution. All
the salt that will be dissolved in a
pound Of butter by its own moisture
amounts to little, II any. over half an
ounce; hence OF an ounce OF salt in a
pound OF butter large part is simply
undissolved salt. 1t was shown. fur
ther, that the finer the FORMULATION of
the butter. and the longer the butter
stands in the brine, the more Of the
solution it will take up; the more brine
the butter contains the more OF the
Gaseous or cheesey matter is removed,
or In some other way rendered harm
less. and the longer the butter will
keep.
But If the grain is made too fine an
undue amount OF water is left in the
butter, which washing will not remove.
On the other hand, II the grains are
left too large, they inclose more OF the
gaseous matter that will not be taken
out, since the brine can not penetrate
into these larger masses OF fat. Gath
ering the butter into granules the size
OF small bird-shot is about the best one
can do to avoid the undesirable ex-
tremes above mentioned. Brne-salt.
ing can be most perfectly done by

butter will contain 80 per cent. of it,

often forget all that their parents have

We have heard women say that they
never fully appreciated their mothers

OF course, much Of the disrespect

A man was brought to the station
house apparently with nothing worse

was no external appearance Of any
wound He was partially uncon-
scious, but revived sufficiently to give
his name and address, and was put In
a cell. In the morning he was taken
to court, paid his fine. and was re-
leased. He was about the streets Tor
several days. but finally was obliged
to take to his bed and send for a ply
sican on account of trouble with his
head. A close examination then, for
the first time, revealed the fact that
his skull was fractured. In spite OF
the doctors efforts the man died.
That is, OF course, a very unusual
case. but it shows how great should be
the care of the surgeon In examining
what may seem to be slight wound
or no wound whatever, provided he
knows that blow has been struck. In

NINE. DE cAsTiGL,oNE.

a FavOrite OF Napoleon Who Was Fa-
nous Throughout Europe.
The rumor which was current on the
boulevards OF Paris a few days ago that
Nine. de Castiglione, the notorious
favorite OF Napoleon Ill, was dead,
revives number OF recollections OF
the once famous beauty.
In the year 1859 there appeared in
Paris Count and Countess de Cas-
tiglione.. They were Italians OF good
family. who bore with them letters of
introduction to the best houses in inn
perial society. They appeared to have
plenty OF money at their disposal, took
a handsome hotel on what was then
called rAvenue de Imperatice. now
known as lAvenue du Bots de Bou-
logne, and entertained in an unosten-
tatious manner. Nine. de Castig lionc's
beauty soon became the talk OF the
town.
Never had Paris seen such perfec-
ton in womankind. 1t was impossible
for painter or sculptor to find fault
with her features or the lines OF her
figure.
She was a brunette, with rich,
clear southern complexion. Her eyes.
OF deep violet, were shaded with long
black lashes, which boulevardiers de-
clared took her half an hour every
morning TO unknot Her hair was
blue,black. Her nose was OF the bold
Roman type. which is SO rapidly dis
appearing in fair Italy. When she
opened her luscious red lips she dis
closed two dazzling rows OF faultless
teeth.
But beautiful as Nine. de Castig-
Homes face was. many thought her
figure even more perfect. Hor arm
was dream, and "a model OF her foot
Ia still preserved as "a thing of beauty
and Joy forever" among people who
live and reveled in Napoleon III. s
brilliant court.
The Italian beauty soon succeeded in
gaining the Emperor's favor, and the
Carbonari of Italy, whose enmity he
had gained through his wrestling from
Italy the fair province of Savoy,
thought 1t would be an easy thing for
her to inveigle him TO some place
whore his death could be brought
about.
While the plot was being matured.
LA Castiglione" appeared at fancy
ball given in honor OF some foreign
royalty, and her costume shocked the
Empress Eugenie TO such an extent
that she refused to recognize her and
had her removed from the room.
A stormy meeting between the En-
peror and the beautiful Italian fol-
lowed; she raved madly and threatened
his death Ii the insult offered her was
not atoned for. She was finally paci-
fed. the Emperor promising That the
next night, at the opera. he would
bow To her so that all Paris would
know that she still held his favor.
