HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
DRYING FRUIT.


Dried fruit is one of the by-products
of the farm, and although it will not pay
the farmer to hire labor to dry fruit, it
will pay to make arrangements in advance
for it, SO that members of the family can
occupy their spare time in this kind of
work. In this way very considerable
amount of fruit that otherwise might be
bad can be turned into an article not
quickly perishable, and for which
market can Away be found, writes an
Ohio farmer. Good apple-parers should
be provided for expediting the work,
which should be done in such a manner
that the fruit when dried will be clean
and attractive in appearance. Nothing
detracts so much from its value in the
eyes of purchaser as to find the pieces
with bits of core sticking to them and
poorly pared besides. 1 do not favor
bleaching any kind of fruit, whether it
is dried in the ordinary way or evapor-
ated quickly. If the fruit itself is good
to begin with, would give more for it
for my own use when it has been slowly
and cleanly dried than for that which
has been hurriedly evaporated and
bleached with sulphur. Nice dried
peaches I consider as good as those that
are canned. d.-NeD York World.

Joe, the Worm Man.

Joe Pierce, the fonly worm merchant,
died in this city few days ago. Joe
was we'll known on the water front. His
store was portable bucket and gunny-
sack. His place of business was nearly
always open, for Joe slept but little. He
had no partner but diminutive Scotch
terrier that was constantly at odds with
the whole world, and his only stock IN
trade was worms.
Four years since Joe, who had an In
terest in pure politics, determined to
register as a voter. The Registrars
clerks subjected him to close cross-fire
of questions because his mien was sus-
piciously humble and his garb seedy and
worn.
"What is your business" he was
finally asked, and, drawing himself to-
gether, Joe answered in all seriousness:
ssI am worm merchant"
He was passed, and the story of his
tilt with the commissioners Travelled
through the mazes of the water front,
and honest Joe was thenceforth known
as 'the worm merchant"
1t was ten years ago that Joe appeared
on the water front and inaugurated his
enterprise. He took up his stand at the
corner of Clay and East streets, with his
slimy wares concealed in bucket bear
ing tho advertisement in prominent let
ters made with shoeblack: ''Wirms,
Fresh an Gud."
"Youve spelled that wrong, Joe,"
remarked sailor to him one day.
"Nover you mind" was Joe's reply.
"Wirms is worms, and people as wants
'em knows where to get 'em."
Late at night, when noisy revelry
reigned high in the brilliantly lighted
saloons along East street, Joe would go
down to the wharf and push out through
the muddy water in small boat. Next
to an asphaltum cover Joe was the next
best friend to the terodo-stricken piles,
for he searched diligently for the long,
wriggling things until his gunnysacls
was almost alive with them. Next
morning he would take up his position
s,n East street and wait for customers.
Nearly every lover of the rod patronized
him, and the superstition spread epace
that Joe was sort of piscatorial mas
cot, and that his worms were ''sure to
fetch" he contributed by his thrift to
the support of his mother and sisters.
When the news came that he was dead
the whole water front mourned his loss.

Why the Dayaks Hunt Heads.

Many Dayak tribes of Australia are
still addicted to head-hunting, a prac-
tice which has made their name motor
ious, and which but lately threatened
the destruction of the whole race. 1t is
essentially a religious practice--so much
SO that no important act in their lives
seems sanctioned unless accompanied by
the offering of one or more heads. The
child is born under adverse influences
unless the father has presented head or
two to the mother before its birth. The
young man can not become a man and
arm himself with the 1nandau, or war;
club, until he has beheaded at least one
victim. The wooer is rejected by the
maiden of his choice unless he can pro-
duce one head to adorn their new home.
The chief fails to secure recognition un-
til he can exhibit to his subjects head
secured by his own hand. No dying
person can enter the kingdom beyond
the grave with honor unless he is accom-
panied by one or more headless compan-
ions. Every rajah owes to his rank the
tribute of numerous escort after death.

THE WINTER WINDOW GARDEN.

The housewife who loves flowers must
now begin preparations for the stock
which shall bloom in the winter garder
during winter. Tnis is done by making
cuttings of such plants as may be de-
sired. Geraniums of all kinds and other
soft-wooded plants may be started from
cuttings made in the summer. Indeed,
the flower garden may be duplicated in
the windows indoors through the winter
if the right preparations are made now,
and the garden may be restocked in the
same way. Fuchsias, heliotropes, salvias,
coleus, verbenas, bouvardias, and chrys-
anthemums land no other flower than
khe last mentioned will offer so much
pleasure) may all be propagated in this
way. Roses may also be added to the
list. It is not that such plants may not
be purchased from the florists easily and
cheaply, but the pleasure of growing
them and rearing them to pleasing and
successful maturity is far greater and
more satisfying than the mere possession
of plants bought from the florists. Be-
sides, homegrown plants are generally
more robust and enduring than those
forced under glass. Elsewhere will be
found full instructions for growing plants
from cuttings and for their management
up to the time for taking them Indoors
Potted plants set out of doors will send
their roots through the drainage opening
of the pots, and when they are taken up
the severance of these feeding roots will
give serious, if not fatal, check to the
plants.-NcU YORK. Times.

One of the curious facts which work
ingmen and mechanics detailed to under
take work in different towns notice, re-
marks the Chicago Neaos, is that the small
country places are frequently ahead of
the metropolitan cities in the way of sci
entifc improvements. Many rural viii
lage of 5000 or 10, 900 inhabitants quick
ly avails itself of the opportunities which
the city inventors and scientists have
been discovering for years. Thus it hap
pens that little towns of few thousand
population which have grown up within
the last four or five years have electric
lights, electric railways, cable lines, and
water works more perfect than the big
cities have.

The Chicago Herald says that "Florida
and California are each making strong
bid for winter visitors by sending out
cars filled with tropical and semi-tropical
fruits attractively displayed. There is q
car of this kind known as FLORIDA on
Wheels, which made the tour of the
Eastern resorts and did good missionary
work during the summer months. A
train of cars known as California on
Wheels and containing superb exhibit
of fruits, is now en- route for the East for
the purpose of booming Southern Cali
fornia as winter resort, and will un.
doubtedly influence many people to cross
the continent the coming winter"

The experiments in the cultivation of
plants under the electrical light, recently
made by the botanical department of the
Cornell University, at Ithaca, N. Y,
have given some curious and interesting
results, and results which are in some re-
spects confrmatory of somewhat similar
experiments not long ago reported from
Russia. The first and most noticeable
effect of the treatment is an enormously
increased rate of growth. The plants
which are lighted seem to work day and
night and to "run very much to leaf. I"
Vegetables shoot up very quickly, and
peas in a few weeks are two or three
times as tall as those planted at the same
time in daylight. In the case of seeds
and fruit of any kind, however, the re-
suits are entirely different, and the plants
which had grown slowly and by daylight
were ahead. 1t was observed that in
every instance the reproductive powers
of the plant were strongly affected, being
sacrificed to mere foliage and rapidlty of
increase in general size.

Several California papers recently con.
tanned matrimonial appeal, signed by
''a young and beautiful Hungarian
maiden, an orphan without means, but
we'll educated and with domestic tenden-
cies, who seeks companion for life. 4"
The answers were to be directed to Paris,
where the young lady was employed as
nurse. Incredible as it may appear q
dozen offers from marriageable young
'Frisconians came over the sea. A lively
correspondence ensued, and finally each
of the wooers received an exquisite pho
tograph and an affirmative answer from
the beautiful Hungarian maiden, with a
request that the lover should send the
necessary cash for transatlantic ticket.
The swipdler or the syndicate of swind-
lers netted 5000 marks in all by the
trick. And now the prospective bride
grooms, among whom are some we'll
known names, dare not whisper their
misery.

A LAST CHORD.

Madame Langelot, comely, smiling
woman of thirty-six, was humming mer-
rily as she went to and fro in her dining
room, and giving the last glance, the
careful housewives glance, to the family
table. Whatever the season might be,
there was always bunch of flowers to
enliven the board and testify to the deli
cate touch of woman.
Suddenly Madame Langelot stopped.
as she recognized her husbands step, and
he had hardly entered the room when
she exclaimed;
"What is the matter2 You look up
SET"
~ have reason to be, darling" he re-
piled, ''when man hears at the same
moment of the failure and the death of his
only BROTHER"
"You brother, oh, my poor dear!"
cried Madame.
''His marriage, as you know, was an
unfortunate one" continued the husband.
she was an artist IN heart and soul, and
forgot everything in his love for an
italian lady, who had madonna-like
face and wonderful musical talent. Her
dark eyes bewitched him, and in spite of
my entreaties, and our fathers opposi-
tion, he married her. He was utterly
incapable of managing his business, and
was made reckless by the death of his
adored wife. Yesterday, in despair, he
took his own life. and on me devolves
the task of settling his affairs in an hon
orable manner. must do this dear, for
he was Langelot."
"of course" was the reply, "it is
your duty"
"Therc is something else, said Mon
sieur Langelot slowly, and his wife,
startled by his hesitation, exclaimed
anxiously:
"What do you meanG"
''My brother has left a son, he is
twelve years old, but delicate and de-
formed, and will never be able to provide
for himself"
"And you think it is our duty to
adopt hims"
''My dear"
"You arc perfectly right" cried the
young woman, kissing her husband
fondly, show good you are, dear Bring
the poor boy home, and he shall be our
Clairette's elder brother"
And thus the orphans fate was settled
by these two simple loving souls.
Monsieur and Madame Langelot, who
had been married twelve years, idolized
their only child. Cairette was three
years old, frail, delicate little creature,
highly nervous, treated like queen, and
somewhat despotic, as spoiled children
usually are.
In few days Lucien Langelot arrived
at his uncle's home. He was painfully
deformed, pale and delicate, and of his
nnther's radiant beauty had inherited
nothing except the large dark eyes, which
