A BLOODLESS DUEL.
The Principals Exchange Spectacles and
Fight a Birch Tree for Honor.

The Principals Exchange Spectacles and
Fight a Birch Tree for Honor.
The four witnesses met at the bras
serie. They were old chums, having
served, along with the opponents, in the
same regiment of Hussars. The condi-
tions of the duel were soon settled; they
all agreed in preventing their two COM
radeS from cutting their throats for a
mere fribble. At daybreak the antago-
n1StS and their witnesses met in the
Verrieres woods, where the seconds, to
equalize the chances, insisted upon the
principals exchanging their spectacles,
for Duplanchet, who is long sighted,
can see farther than Bocornard, who is
short sighted. After a last attempt at
reconciliation the two friends, who
could not see at all, were placed in po-
sition; between them stood fine young
birch with smooth and supple stem.
The witnesses gave the final signal and
trotted off to sip book in the neigh
boring village.
Touched" said Bocornard, as he
dealt vigorous head stroke.
''Never" replied Duplanchet, while
bestowing on his adversary side stroke
which made the birch tree tremble.
The fight was continued with the most
cruel ohstinacy till both looked black in
the face. In three-quarters OF an hour
the witnesses. on returning to the scene,
found them still fighting like grim
death, though completely exhausted
Honor was, however, declared satisfied,
the fight ceased. the notched sabers
bore ample testimony to the equal
prowess of both combatants, who now
became reconciled on the spot, and the
whole company adjourned to lunch

speech.

KANSAS farmers will not be slow to
spot the old foxes who are attempting

the purpose of stampeding the poultry.
Congressman Perkins is out in conf
Dental letter to some of his henchmen,
in which he advises them to '.join the
Aliknce and throw it to the republi-
cans" These fellows would, if they
get. in in sufficient numbers, cause a
split in the alliance, and then the most
impressible ones would be whipped
back into line. and the balance be so
discouraged with the first attempt at a
united movement that they would dis
band. We doubt, however, if a sufii-
cient number of schemers can get in to
cause any serious trouble. Itshould be
kept in mind, though, that ''eternal
vigilence is the price of liberty"

THE man who would destroy the
grange, the alliance or the union if he
cannot have his way about a particular
matter is an enemy. If he is bold and
open and manly about it, he will retire
as soon as he discovers that he under
estimated the importance and strength
of the movement. An open enemy is
manly man, after all. 1t is the secret
enemy we are after-the man who sings
while he steals. The man for example,
who joins an alliance in order to betray
its membership and lead them into an
enemy's camp is traitor as well as an
enemy, and he is a dangerous character
-one to be summed as well as despised.
Watch him. Vigilance is the word.

The AntIseptIc Power Of coffee.
Montreal Star.l

DIR. Luderitz has recently made a num-
Der of observations on the destructive
power of coffee upon various microbes.
He found that the organisms all died in
a longer or shorter period-e. g., in one
series of experiments anthrax bacilli
were destroyed in three hours, anthrax
spores in four weeks, cholera bacilli in
four hours, and the streptococcus of cry
sipelas in one day. 1t was, however, re-
markable that good coffee and bad coffee
produced precisely similar effects. He
believes, that as previous observers have
suggested, the antiseptic effect of coffee
does not depend on the caffeine it con-
tai but on the empyreumatic oils de.
vel ed by roasting.

Carving Fowls
TChieapo Harald

A goose is carved the same as wild
duck (this is also the case with a tame
duck) and should be served up with tur-
nips or olives. 1t should be sufficiently
well done for it to be possible to carve It
with spoon or the point of a knife.
Pigeons when roasted are divided into
four pieces. When no company is present
the most equitable way is to cut pigeon
in two longitudinally.
Chickens and capons are carved very
much in the same way as turkeys. The
legs make two pieces, the wings three.
the white meat is left in whole slices. and
the carcass is separated into six pieces.
Chickens and capons are much improved
by the use of truffles, but, as George
Grant will tell you, trufiies cannot be rot
in America.
