A Terror All Around,

A gentleman who was formerly an
officer IN the United States navy but
who is now in business in this CITY

ways given Captain McCalla credit

the navy, but in my time even he
was one Of the severest. | can re-
member when I was a mere lad see

boy by the nape of the neck and

otfense, and then row off and leave
him. On going back to the ship
McCalla reported the same boy to be
absent without leave, and ordered
that he be punished by five days on
bread and water. Ifyou have never
gone on bread and water you do
not know what it is to growing
boy, and in this case any punishment

Not a Sign of Poverty.
From the CIeavland Leader,

From the Cleavland Leader.
The mortgages of the newer states
OF the West, such as Nebraska, are
not sign oftrouble or loss of ground.
The country was filled up in the first
place by men of little or no capital.
They obtained their land from the
government, and this they mortgaged
for the sake of making the soil more
productive, sheltering crops, etc.
The money raised by pledg ing the
raw prairies Of the West was simply
invested insubstantialimprovements
worth, as a rule, all they cost.
Every such debt paid is the proof of
prosperity and of the increased
wealth of the community, and as
long as the Eastern money-lenders
find loans on farm property in Ne
braska and other sta ties of the West
a safe and profitable investment, the
condition Of the tillers of the soil
cannot be so bad as it has been de-
f ted.

He Wanted to Know.

The Trappist monasterysituated in
Kentucky is the home of those monks
upon whom the injunction OF perpet-
ual silence is placed. The stories that
sift through to the outside world,
with more or less romantic detail,
concerning the individual monks OF
La Trappe are many. There is one
told of brother at Gethsemane
which is old but full of dramat sug-
gestion. He was a soldier of Napo-
leon, so it was said, and after the
emperor's first abdication took the
cowl of the 'Brown brothers and
ultimately came to Gethsemane.
Forty years he lived in silence, hear
ing nothing of the worlds history,
but with one item OF curiosity left I'M
quenched. When he came to die and
was lifted from his hard couch and
laid upon the harder floor, strewn
with straw, when all followers OF the
order must meet extremes, the abbot,
as is customary, told him he was at
liberty to ask any questions he de-
sired. What became of the emperor?"
the old man asked promptly, and
then for the first time learned Napo-
Icons fate, long years after that
restless clay had become dust Rich

Needed Legislation.

She had gone away and lett her
chewing gum stuck on the back of
the sofa, ard it was perhaps unfort-
unate that her little brother saw it.
It was certainly grotesque of him to
dig out it's inside, fill up the cavity
with red pepper, carefully plug up
the hole and put the gum back in it's
place. 1t was little short of calami-
tous that her beau should call just
at that moment in the evening when
she had put the gum back in her
mouth again. He could not under
stand her demeanor. He does not
even yet comprehend why she danced
and shrieked and finally ran out of
the room. There is no question that
the proposed bill providing tor the
killing Of all boys between the ages
of eight and thirteen should become
law.-Merchant Traveller.

The reflection did not, however, pre-
vent him from pursuing a course
which many persons would have
thought to .appertain to that charac-
ter. After having walked at a rapid
pace nearly to Lincoln Inn Fields,
he suddenly turned, and hurried in
the direction OF Kensington, where, ar
rived in front Of a very modest and
quiet-looking house, in which every
one was, to all appearance, long since
retired for the night, he paced to and
fro till near upon daybreak; then, as
the dawn crept slowly up the east, he
as slowly and reluctantly returned to
town, and betook himself to miser-
able little lodging, preparatory to
commencing the labors OF the day

might, after such preparation.

Is Alum Poisonous.
Halls Journal of Health.

ssThis question has caused q good
deal Of discussion. Alum is used by
many bakers to whiten their bread,
enabling them to use an inferior
flour. 1t is most extensively employ
ed as cheap substitute for cream
OF tartar In the manufacture Of bak-
ing powders. It has not been consid-
cred Immediately dangerous; although
if continued it induces dyspepsia and
obstinate constipation. But the fact
that many cases of poisoning have
occurred from the use of alum, puts
the question in a more serious aspect,
and prudent people will exercise eau
ton in the selection OF baking
powders.
"Under what conditions then, does
this substance-formerly used only
for mechanical or medicinal purposes
become poisonous? They are GER
talnly obscure, and at present we can
only surmise what they may be.
We suspect that the cause exists in the
individual poisoned; some popularity
OF 1.-THE constitution producing morbid
change in the secretions OF the stom-
ach, with which the alum combines
and forms an active poison; or the
secrections may be healthy but in un-
usual proportions, and that theseless
orgreater proportions in combination
with the alum constitute a poison.
''For example, two parts Of mercury
and two parts Of Chlorine form Gallo
mel, which is not poisonous, but
change the proportions to one part
mercury and two parts of chlorine.
and we get corrosive sublimate, which
is a deadly poison.
"Then again, we. know nothing o.
the constitutional peculiarities. Why
is it that one person can eat all kinds
Of green fruits and vegetables with
impunity, while the same course might
cost another individual his life? One
person can handle poison ivy and
sumac without being in the least
affected; another is poisoned if he ap
proaches to within ten feet of them.
Out OF a family residing in malarial
district, some OF the members will
suffer half the year with fever and
asue, while the others will enjoy excel,
lent health during the entire year.
Foods that are wholesome to some
persons are actually poisonous to
others. This is especially true OF
some kinds OF fish. There is no safety
in taking alum into the stomach, as
it is shown to be always injurious,
and often dangerous" 4
The Scientific American published in
recent number list OF alum and
ammonia baking powders, which is
of great value at this time Follow
ing is the list complied from officialre
ports. Powders marked with a star
seem to have a general sale, as they
are mentioned in at least two Of the
official reports.

Her Gown Will Weigh Three
Ounces.

About the year 100 fair young
bride in the village now known as
New Haven wore dainty costume
OF white. The gown was cut low in
the neck and sleeveless. The dress
was of light and fimsy texture and
weighed but about three ounces. It
has been handed down from genera
ton to generation, until it has come
into the procession of Danbury
lady. The dress is remarkably we'll
preserved and is EXTREMITY valuable,
both from its age and the beauty of
the embrolderies with which it is
covered. The design of the trimming
is prettily worked in the coarse linen
thread SO common in those days

To Preserve Flowers.

A charming way OF preserving flow
ers is shown by a Boston friend. Take
very fine sand, wash it perfectly clean,
and when dry sift it through fine
sieve into pan. When the sand is
deep enough to hold the flowers in an
upright position, take some more sift-
ed sand and carefully cover them. A
spoon is good thing to take for this,
as it fills in every chink and Granny
without breaking or bending the
leaves. When the pan is filled solidly
leave the flowers to dry for several
days. 1t is good plan to warm the
sand in the oven before usingit, as the
flowers will then dry more thoroughly.
In taking the sand off great care must
be taken not to break the leaves, as
they are now dry and brittle Pan
sizes preserved in this way will keep
their shape and brilliancy OF color all
winter, and many other flowers can
be equally successfully treated-any~
thing, in fact, where the full pressure
of the sand comes on both sides OF the
leaf; other wise they will shrivel. To
fill in flowers with cup-like shapes it is
better to lay them on the sand and
with small spoon fill in and around
each flower: Ferns, when preserved
in this way, havea more natural look
than when pressed, and the maiden
hair fern looks almost as we'll as when
it is freshly gathered.-New York Tri-
bune
