Dealers money that psid for the publication
of the snti-tempersnce speech at the recent
meeting Of druggists in Portland. Some

money paid newspapers by Boston liquor
dealers or any other parties, only that paid
to the proprietors OF the Journal

citation for publishing the aldters in
pamphlet form. Owing to the present
| fl urishing condition OF these Boz
ton geptemen's liquor business in prohioi-
tory Maine, toeir interests wonld not re-

venslity on the part of its Boston contem-
poraries is entirely gratuitous and uncalled
for.
| Illustrating this. and confirming the

Portland. is the fact that during the last

eating liquors, ave .ang three .(3)

A Few Notes for the Dairy.

Milk too rich fof making into cheese
IL not so abundant in this country that
one needs to resort to skimming for the
purpose Of impoverishing it The rich
est milk Is more profitable for butt I
making.
Forth-two per cent of fat in cheese a
year Old gave it a delicious flavor. Any
cheese eater would willingly pay an
extra price for such cheese, II he could
Get it. White oak" is plentier than
such buttery cheese.
A dairy authority says: s'Curd should
contain about IS per cent moisture when
pressed, and drv out Gown to 80 per cent
when cured,' Whew. What shrnkage
that would be Does our contemporary
mean this? Or is there a Typographical
error?
Milk requires quite different handling
for cheese making than it does for but
ter m4king For cheese, the milk needs
to be agitated, aired and cooled as quickly
and 5000 as may be to about G5 degrees,
preventing as much as possible the sepa-
ration OF cream For butter. the milk
needs the least possible stirring and
cooling until it is finally strained and
set to rest for dreaming.
In aiming at the most money, regard
les, of quality Of product, the dairyman
generally defeats his own purpose. This

PARIS STREETS.
The Work of the RAxpicksra Inciud-

The Work OF the RAgpicksrA Includ-
ing some Rather Disturbing Detaila-
A curious series Of statistics establishes
the value of the refuse Of the Paris streets
The figures seem incredible, and show that
the ragpickers discharge q duty Of primary
Importance. Working at night, busy un-
der the gas lights, with hook and ranier,
the value Of what they collect Is estimated
at $4,000 each day. Assuredly one-half
the world does not know how the other
half lives. OF course, the conditions OF
Paris life are exceptionable. Population Is
yery close; the tall houses are crammed
with inhabitants; there are no gardens, as
with us-there are but the houses and the
streets. The Parisians have q way OF
emptying all kinds of lumber and refuse
into the streets, and then the ragpickers
gather in their harvest A use is found for
everything, and metamorphosis never
ceases. Ali the details are interesting.
though some are rather disturbing.
Rags, of course. go to make paper; broken
glass is pounded. and serves as the coating
for sand or emery paper, bones, after tho
process of cleaning and cutting down,
serve to make nail brushes, tooth brushes
and fancy buttons; little wisps Of women
hair are carefully unrayeled, and do duty
for false hair by and by. Mems hair col
Iectei outside the BARRIERS serves for filters
through which sirups are strained, bits OF
sponge are cut up and used for spirit
lamps: bits of bread il dirty are toasted
and grated. and sold to the restaurants for
spreading on hams or outlets; sometimes
they are carboni1ed and made into tooth
powder Sardine boyvs are cut up into tin
soldiers or into sockets for candlesticks. A
silk hat has whole chapter of adventures
in store for it. All this work employs
regiment of ragpickers numbering close
on 20, 900 and each earning from forty to
sixty-five cents day.
