KEEPING MEATS.

DR.. Kitchener's remarks in relation TO
this are concise, and will be OF beneft 10
II readers, He says:
The time meat should hang to DC
tender depends on the heat and humidity
of the air; if it is not kept long enough
it is hard and tough; if too long, it loses
its flavor. 1t should be hung where it
will have a thorough air, and be dried
with a cloth night and morning, to keep
it from damp and mustiness. Before you
dress it, wash it well; If it is a roasting
beef, pare off the outside.
If you tear your meat, ETC., will not
keep till the time it is wanted, parboll
or parroast it; it will then keep a couple
of days longer, when it may be dressed
in the usual way, only it will be done in
rather less time. The cook and the
butcher as often lose credit, by meat
being dressed too fresh, as the flshmon-
ger does by fish that has been kept too
long.
DR.. Franklin in his philosophical exc
periments, tells us, that if game or poul-
try be killed by electricity it will become
tender in the twinkling of an eye, and if
it be dressed Immediately will be deli
cately tender. During the sultry summer
months it is almost impossible to procure
meat that is not either tough or tainted;
the former is as improper as the latter for
the Embraced stomachs of relaxed valetu-
Librarians, flor whom at this season, poul-
try, stews, ETC., and vegetable soups are
the most suitable food), when the diges-
tive organs are debilitated by the extreme
heat, and profuse perspiration requires
an increase of liquid to restore equilib-
| rum in the constitution.

Pencils of Paper.

The objection against making lead
pencils out of paper, instead of wood, has
been overcome. One of difficulties has
been the toughness of the paper cover
ing and its consequent resistance to the
action of q knife. By a new process the
molecular cohesion of the paper is modi-
fed in such o manner that it can be cut
as easily as cedar wood.

POINTS OF INTEREST.

There are some forty various points OF
more or less historic interest IN and about
the ancient city:
The adobe palace stands on the spot
where the old Spanish palace had been
erected shortly after 1905. That ancient
structure was destroyed in 1850 and the
present one was constructed between
1897 and 17l6.
The chapel of San Miguel was built be-
tween 1886 and 1850. In the latter years
the Indians destroyed it. Fully restored
in I'LL, it had previously, and after 1888,
been the only Spanish chapel in Santa
Fe, II still remains the oldest church in
use in New Mexico.
The walls OF the old cathedral date IN
part from 1922; but the ediiice proper Is
from the past century.
Oh Fort Marcy was first recognized
and used as a strategic military point by
the Pueblo Indians when they revoltod
against Spanish rule in 1880 and drove out
the enemy after besieglng the city Tor
nine DAYS. The American army under
Kearney constructed old Fort Marcy IN
1916.
Fort Marcy OF the present day Is gar
risoned by two companies OF the l0th
u. S. infantry, under command OF Col
SNYDER, and here at 8 q. NJ. daily occurs
guard mounting, a feature OF military
maneuyering ever OF interest to the tourist.
Other points OF interest to the tourist
are: The Historical Society's rooms; the
"Garita, ;" the military quarter; chapel and
cemetery of Our Lady Of the Rosary; the
church museum at the new cathedral, the
arcbbishop's gardens; church OF our Our
Lady of Guadalupe with its rare Old works
of art: the soldiers monument, monu-
ment TO the Pioneer Path-Finder, Kit
Carson, erected by the q. A. r. OF New
Mexico; st. Vincent hospital, conducted
by Sisters of Charity, and the Orphans
industrial school; the Indian framing
school; Loreto Academy and the chapel
OF Our Lady OF Light. .,-.
The sight-seer here may also take q

both pleasure and profit. The various
apots OF interest to be visited are Tesuque
pueblo, sking in the divide en- route
Monument rock, up in picturesque Santa
Fe canon; the Aztec mineral springs
Nambe pueblo; Aqua Fria village; the
turquoise mines place Of the assasslna-
tion of Governor Perez; San lldeionEo

now a population OF 5000, and has every
