Burying Hearts.

October ). 1918, was killed at Fagher,
Ireland, Edward, brother to King Robert
Bruce. In 1913 another Lord Edward
Bruce was killed in a duel and his body
buried at Bergen, in Holland, where he
died. 4 family tradition averred that
his heart had been brought back to Scot
land and inferred in a certain churchyard.
In 1906 4 search for the relic was under
taken. Two flat stones curiously fastened
together with iron were disinterred, and
out of couriosity separated. In cavity
between them was found heart shaped
silver case with the engraved arms of
Lord Edward. Opening this, a heart was
found within embalmed in brownish
liquid.
The last ceremonial burial of heart in
England was that of Paul Whitehead in
11I5. His heart was buried with mill
tary honors on Lord Despencer's place in
a mausoleum, built out of funds left for
the purpose by that George Bubb Doding-
ton. Lord Malcombe, whose "Memoirs"
afford one of the most wonderful pictures
of English society. A book has been
devoted to the history of heart burial
entitled "Enshrined Hearts of Warriors
and Illustrious People" Formerly the
executioner of traitor was required to
remove the body from the gallows before
life was extinct and pluck out the heart,
exhibiting it to the people with the
words Here is the heart of traitor"
Anthony A. Wood reports that Sir Ken
elm Digby spoke and answered Thou

three persons were reported to have
spoken two or three words under similar
circumstances. i New York Sun.

CELLT5 NATIONAL DRINK.

In Chilli 1t may be regarded as the
national beverage. the great popular pro.
vokcr OF merrimcnt. and the source of
all that Is trUl original in that variation
OF the Spanish '''jota' known in Chill as
ia cueca." After drinking a certain
amount of ''chicha," the CHILEAN must
dance the yucca" This drink is cooked
wine. The operation of making it is as
follows: the grapes, having been gath
cred and brought in, are passed through
a sieve or net Of quarter-inch cord. with
three-quarter-inch openings, forming q
tray some three feet long, two feet wide.
and ten inches deep. This process re.
moves the berries from the sprigs. The
tray being placed over hopper. and the
hopper over press composed OF two
tluted cylinders of American oak, the
berries pass between the rollers. and
juice, skins, pips, and all fall into vat,
whence the clear liquid is drawn off With
all speed. The sediment may be put
into a second press. and more
liquid obtained, only this second brew

sediment is used for distilling alcohol,
or aguardicnte. The liquid juice is i'm

the foam being carefully skinned off as
it rises. When the whole is cooked. Il
little vine wood ash is thrown in to clari-
fly it, and the liquid is drawn oil by
faucet, and strained through fine cloth
filter The time OF cooking is four hours
for forty gallons of juice, and the loss by
evaporation twelve TO fifteen per ceat.
The liquid. boiled and strained, is poured
into vat and left to fcrmcnt; and while
there still remains little fermentation
the ''chicha" is again strained through
cloth, and bottled with good corks, tied
down with string or wire. If stone bottles
are used, the ''chicha' will remain good
for wear or two, after which it loses its
peculiar foaming and sparkling quality,
and becomes mere ordinary white wine :;
whereas good ''chicha," carefully put
up in glass bottles, retains its qualities
for four or five years, and compares favor
ably with most of the champagne in the
market nowadays. In making ''chicha'
skill and experience tell in the boiling,
and in choosing the exact moment for
bottling the still fcrmenting liquid. As
regards the kind of "rapes to be pre-
ferrcd, the Chilians use the black san
Francisco or Old Mission grapes, white
Italian grapes, pinl, Spanish grapes,
and white French ChaSselaS. As the
great question in making ''chicha' is
quantity of juice, and not quality, the
traicd vines are to be r, commended, be-
cause the yield of grapes is more abun-
dant and the berry ripenS more quickly

STRICT ECONOMY.

The Science to Which the Slaughter OF
Cattle Has Been Reduced
Science brings about economy, and In
these days of varied manufactures, and
perfect facilities for carrying them on,
there is very little waste material in any
branch of trade. The Sunday Call in
describing the slaughter of cattle at
Newark, N. j., says that no part of
steer is lost, save its dying breath.
Nothing is wasted, from the tip OF the
tongue to the brush on the end of the
tail The blood is caught, and sold to
make albumen for sugar refineries and
other manufactures, or to form cheap
substitute for the hard rubber and
other plastic material used in the man
ufacture of buttons. When the meat is
dressed, the contents of the stomach are
removed, dried, and baled as manure,
and the stomach itself is prepared as
tripe.
The hide goes to the tanner, the head
is skinned and denuded of flesh for the
sausage-maker, the horns go to the comb
maker, who knocks out the pith and
sells it to the glue manufacturer, who is
ever ready to take all the refuse from
any part of the steer. The horny COW
erings of the hoOfS are almost as useful
as horn for making buttons and similar
articles, and the feet can be used for oil
and glue.
The shinbones make the finest of bone
handles, and all the rest of the bony

to sell with the meat, finds it's way event.

ATTACKING A TIGER.
A FOolhardy Soldiers Experience With a
Enraged Man-Eater.

A Foolhardy Soldiers Experience With an
Enraged Man-Eater.
Russian hunters are said to look upon
a combat single-handed with a bear as
only an ordinary experience. 1t is
doubtful, however, if many instances of
a man attacking tiger, armed with a
sword only, can be vOuched for, but
Colonel Seaton relates the following:
One morning, just as we were leaving
the parade ground, a man came rushing
up breathless, looking as scared as if
his life were in danger.
''Get your guns, men," he exclaimed
in terror, there is tiger in the hollow
by the fakeer's hut, and no one dares
go by!'
This was an intimation not to be
sighted, SO in all haste we got our guns
and two elephants, and hurried to the
spot, where. in truth, terrible scene
presented itself. The tiger, bleeding
from cut in the head, was on the edge
of the hollow, growing fiercely, with
man mangled, and apparently dead, ly-
ing beneath his paws. The unfortunate
man was the fakeer's son, fine swords
man and first rate wrestler, one of the
champions of his regiment. He had
come home only that morning.
The people who went to draw water
at the well had disturbed the tiger,
and on his rising they had fed in
terror The brave but rash soldier,
who happened to be near at the moment,
on learning the cause of the connection,
Immediately advanced to attack the
tiger, and with his sword gave him a
tremendous cut over the head, which,
however, did not materially injure the
powerful brute. The tiger rushed at
the man, stripped the arm down to the
elbow, and dashing him to the ground,
held him beneath his paws.
When we came up we were at first
at loss how to act, for the man was as
much exposed to our fire as the tiger.
However, 1T was not time for length
ened consideration-we fired, and a
lucky shot finished the animal Youths

He then mentions this case: "Not long

to using his brain inordinatelv when nee

with the complaint that he could not sleep

subjected him to thorough examination,
and finally dismissed him, saying, that all
his symptoms were due to disordered di-
gestion for the relief of which he prescribed
an ordinary tonic mixture. He continued
his ordinary avocalions, and within fort
night was paralyzed in his left side"
1t is a sad but trne fact that had this
man understood his symptoms and used

would have been saved for life of useful
