thought they could catch him but after
running HIM pretty near TO Plankin:on

Cheese as Food.

Much difference of opinion has prevailed in
regard to the value of cheese as food, but we
are beginning to get at real facts with a bet
gestive functions of food elements Cheese
has been much lauded by many because of the
great amount Of nutritive food elements it
contains, and people have been urged indis-
criminately to eat it freely, some enthusiasts
making the most extravagant claims for it as
health diet But many people who have
sought to follow this counsel find themselves
speedily the victims of indigestion and dys-
pepsia. They would consider it little short of
treason to charge their disordered digestion
to the cheese, but the truth is the cheese is
the most probable cause IN any such case.
Although, SO far as its constituents are con-
ceITei, cheese is fairly entitled to its fame as
O model food, yet in raw cheese these constit-
uents are very difficult of solution by the di-
gestive juices-that is, raw cheese is indiges-
tible TO a degree that makes it unavailable as
food except to tho strongest and healthiest
stomachs, and should not be eaten by any one
who finds on trial that it gives his stomach
the least discomfort. 1t is found, however,
that cooking the cheese removes this difficulty
and makes cheese easy of digestion, and as
nutritious tender meat or more so. Vari-
Gus methods have been adopted for this pur-
pose, from plain brOiiing, frying or toasting
to the most elaborate compound dishes. The
main point is to get the cheese cooked so that
the stomach can digest it.-Good H0usekeep-

Agroup of legal friends of mine were dis
cussing tho probability of emotional insanity
being the ultimate defense in a sensational
murder trial-that need not be specifically
mentioned-when one Of the party recalled
the fact that the defense of emotional insan-
.ty III murder cases was unheard of before
1865. That was the year OF the celebrated
Observation-Disclosures tragedy in New York,
and Graham, the attorney for McFarlane,
attracted the attention of the members of the
bar of both helnis phereS when he plunged
INTO the novel defense that McFarlane. while
sane In every other particular was insane
upon the subject of Richardson, who he be-
hevcd had fouly wronged him, and that
while he was perfectly sane until the moment
he met his false friend, and sane the moment
after ne had killed him, that he was at the
moment OF the commission of toe crime an
irresponsible agent. McFarlane was ac-
Quilted after a trial that was followed with
unabsted interest for weeks by the entire
country, and ii complstely revoiutionized
the systsm OF defense in murder trials, and
hes been initiated in hundreds of instances
since with considerable percentage OF sue

Long Lnst Brothers Meet.

My mother was told the following story by
Mrs. Epps, who lived near our home in
Virginia. 1t IS not fancy sketch to please
the reader, but it is true in every detail. Mrs.
EppS owned a plantation in North Carolina
as well rs in Virginia, and was in the habit Of
going from one to the other, using her fam
lily carriage as her conveyance, for that was
before the day of railroads
On one of these trips from North Carolina
back to Virginia she had with her large
mastif, fierce dog, whose very looks in
spired terror in strangers who came near
him. During the journey she stopped for a
night at tavern where there happened to bs
another large mastif very much like her own.
When the landlord saw her dog he asked
her to permit him to tie the animal up, SO as
to keep him away from his; he feared that
they would tear each other to pieces. But
even while he was speaking his dog came to-
ward the other one, and their manner of ap-
preaching each other seemed SO strange to
the landlord that he concluded to wait and
see what they would do. He said he had
never seen his dog approach another so
quietly before. In fact, their actions were of
the friendliest character, for they soon began
to cares and play with each other In the
most remarkable way.
Naturally Mrs. Epps and the tavern keeper
began 10 ask questions, and it was developed
that gentleman in North Carolina had
given them the puppies nearly two years be-
fore, and that the dogs were brothers.
Now, did these dogs remember each other,
OF was it instinct that told them they were
brotherss / cannot decide the question.
But | have noticed among my brothers
hounds that those nearly related to each
other generally sleep together, and, while
they often fight other dogs on the place, they
do not fight among themselves
There is an old saying that blood will tell,
and perhaps it is true among dogs.-Atlanta

The Youngest InGisn Slayer.

A communication to The Independent, Of
Santa Barbara, Cal, by young man named
Show, gives very interesting incident in
he early life OF Glen Reynolds, the sheriff of
ella county, who was killed by the Apache
prisoners while conveying them is Yuma.
Snow says:
II saw him introduced to Gen. Sheridan at
he fort as the youngest Indian slayer on rec
oTd, from an event which bad happened some
en- years before. The account was that his
hther. we'll known in Texas as IRA Wilde
Ileynoitis," was away with the elder boys,
and Mrs. Reynolds with the three youngest
children were at home, when a small war
party of Comanches rode up, and, being I'M
able to pass the stockade with which the
house and corral were surrounded, nor to
break the ponderS1s lock on the gate, began
to fire on the house when the demand for ad
Inittaoce bad been refused.
1t was a question of bat few minutes
when they would force an entrance through
the fence, for they were piling up fuel to burn
the stoc1ade, so his mother directed Glen to
take a gun, her own eyes being weak, and
shoot the one who appeared to be the leader
Glen, who was in his tenth year, and slim
boy at that-hedid not weigh over 120 pounds
when gro~Hr-took the gun as directed. He
was trained to the use of firearms, and with
a rest for the gun was good shot. The wea-
pom was Jennings repeating rifle, which
was the original form OF the Hsnry rife, later
superseded by the Winchester At the first
shot he killed his Indian, and Immediately
after wounded another, which terrified the
remainder into hasty retreat, leaving their
dead cotnra1e ON the ground; and in accord
ance with the ethics Of the border the youth
full defender6 the fort went out to the good
Indian and-fetched away the trophy of VIC
tory,
