He Wouldn't Pay the Fees.

1t is told on good authority of Lord
Palmerston, that when he was made a
Knight of the Garter he strongly objected
to what, in vulgar circles, is termed the
'garnish" (the official fees, which are very
heavy Is it absolutely necessary" he
inquired of the king at arms, who brought
him his little account, Ito pay these
feesg" Really, my lord, l have never
heard such an inquiry, was the dignifed
rejoinder, Perhaps not, but l wish to
know whether these charges can be en-
forced by law" believe not" Very
good; then shall not pay them. Then
/, on my part, shall certainly decline to
hang your lordship's banner over your
stall in st. Georges chapel, returned the
indignant herald. "All right; as never
go to chapel, either at Windsor or any
where else that will not mat ter to me III
the least. l shall not pay these fees.
And he never did.-The Argonaut.

How to Split Paper.

ooh, dearl l have picture printed on
one side of this paper and some reading
matter on the other. and | wanted to
save both, said young lady recently,
who was pasting scraps into a book.
We'll, you can save both, said her
friend
why, how can do that
There are two ways of splitting a
piece of paper. One is to lay the sheet
Of paper on a piece of glass, soak ii
thoroughly with water and then press it
smoothly all over the glass. With lit
tie care the upper half of the sheet can
be peeled off, leaving the under half on
the glass. Let this dry and it will come
of tile glass easily; of course the glass
must be perfectly clean. The second
way is 4 better one, but it requires some
good practice. Paste piece of cloth or
strong paper on each side of the sheet to
be split. When it has thoroughly dried
pull the two pieces of cloth apart sud
denly and violently. The paste can then
be softened with water and the two
halves of the sheet easily taken off the
cloths. New York Mail and Express

The Curriculum includes Marketing
scrubbing and Eating What Is Cooked.
A cooking school that is a cooking
school has just been opened in Gothen-
burg, Sweden. 1t is an annex Of the
girls part of the public school system
there, and every young woman who is
graduated must learn all that the prac-
teal cooks in the annex can teach.
The cooking course is part of the Sc
NOR year curriculum and includes
twenty lessons. Twelve of these
lessons are theoretical. The rest are
practical. Ten Of the practical lessons
of two hours each are devoted to in
struction in the most popular meats
and vegetables. The girls are obliged
to peel potatoes, skin onions, pluck end
stuff chickens, spit roasts and the like.
They put on the kettles, feed and regu-
late the fires, wash the dishes and clean
up generally after all is done. Three
lessons of two hours each concern ex-
clusiveiy the preparation of bouilIon,
toast and rice water, barley soup and
other similar dishes for i'll persons.
The young women are instructed in
classes of five, and each group prepares
successfully every dish in the course.
The cooking is done mornings, the
cooked dishes are served for the din
ners of the pupils and teachers, and
every girl is obliged to eat what she has
had a hand in preparing, or go with
MT Ilttp ofr II.
dent writes a description of how and
what she cooked, and appends sugges
tons as to epicurean improvements
that have occurred to her mind since
she finished the dish. These reports
are read and corrected by the instruct
ors, and at the end of the course the
girl who cooked best and suggested the
most palatable innovations in the proc
ess will get a gold medal.
The course is unique in two particu-
lars. All the girls must go to market
with the instructors very early and buy
all the stuff to he used In the kitchen.
Every Saturday is given over to house
cleaning. All the girls must then get
into their old gowns and gloves, twist
up their hair in tight little knots with
out friz in front or fringe behind,
and knuckie down TO securing the
floor, washing the windows, polishing
the brass and cleaning the walls.

Therapeutics of Asthma.

In a lecture on the thera peutics of
asthma Professor Dieulafoy gives the
points of his method, which consists at
the beginning of the attack in paint
ing tina inside of the nostrils as high up
as possible with camel hair brush
dipped in a solution of hydrochlorate
Of cocaine-1 in 20--or, if preferred,
the solution may be sprayed into the
nose and throat for four or five min
utes at a time with a tablespoonful of
the above solution; if this does not
succeed the patient is to inhale from
to - drops of pyridine sprinkled on
handkerchief. The cocaine and the
pyridine may be employed simultane-
ously.
When the attack is at its acme the
following solution may be injected by
potentially: Ten centigrams hydro
chlorate of morphia and 10 grams dis
titled water, of which half a syringeful
is to be infected; repeated in a quarter
of an hour if necessary. The remedy
par excellence for asthma, says Profes
sor Dieulafoy, is the iodide of potas
stun, given in doses of from 20 to &c
grains daily, but beginning with
grains only, to be gradually increased
To combat the diathesis the patient
should take from Is TO 80 grains iodidt
of potassium daily for Is days, then re
place the iodide by pills composed o
powdered belladonna leaves and the
extract of belIadonna, of each 4 grains

a regular practice of beating his SON. Mar

About a year ago little colored girl
named Estell came to the residence of Mr..
Stephen Downs and wanted to live with
them. The child claimed to be an orphan,
and as Mrs. Downs wished colored girl of
this age, she was taken in and has since
lived at Mr.. Downs place. About O'Clock
this morning Esteu started to the market,
and has not since been seen by Mr.. Downs
or family. An investigation revealed the
fact that Esten was met by negro man
and two negro women at the corner of
Pearl and jackson streets. After talking
to the child for some time they forced her
to go with them. A groceryman near by saw
the whole affair, but thought nothing of it.
Who the strange negroes are is not known,
but it is thought she was stolen for i'm

bright and attractive child.

Governments. stocks and Bonds.

New YORK, June 26-In Wall street to-
day more animation in stocks was accom-
panied by material depression in values all
along the line. The immediate cause of
this state of affairs was the renewal of gold
shipments on large scale, with consequent
destruction of confidence of the bullish ele-
ment in the market and the encouragement
of further additions to short accounts. In
addition to shipments of gold, advices from
the other side were not very reassuring
The fact that Europe has been, and is now,
seller of stocks, gains more believers
every day. The present depression in bus
mess continues. The strength displayed in
the market however, in the resistance
given to declines in face of the
dizziness, continues to be the most striking
feature of the day. There We're only few

to the rain, which is fast spreading over the
sugar region, the estates still at work will
soon be compelled to extinguish their fires.
Planters continue complaining of the scare
ity of hands, which considerably interferes
with labor in the sugarhouses and accord
ingly reduces the quantity of sugar pro-
duced. In general, results heretofore at
tanned are satisfactory. especially at Glen

very popular among the Republicans of his
stSte, who attributed to him all the credit
fDrfeciprocal trade relations with South
lAmhrica, shutting the president out of the
account on that proposition. There was an
impression in the South among Republi-
caH, he said, that President Harrison
cQuld have secured the passage of the cleo
ION bill during the long session Of the last
congress if he had made as strong an effort
as he did at the short session when it was
too late. There were those also who
thought, he said, that Harrison could have
secured the passage of the Blair educational
bill if he had been little more vigorous in
urging it upon congress. Kellogg said he
thought there were several men in the Re-
publican party who would make stronger
presidential candidates than Harrison.
