How to Select a Turkey.

In this country only is the turkey
found in wild state. 1t is very fitting,
therefore, that in the Christmas dinner
it should be the principal dish. The
turkey must be wisely chosen, well
cooked and properly served. 1t should
be short and plump, the meat white,
with some fat, the legs black and smooth;
and if there be spurs they should be
short. The end of the breastbone should
be flexible, more like gristle than bone.
A turkey that is long in proportion tc
its size, and has dark or blush flesh,
may be tender, but certainly will not be
finely favored and juicy. A dry picked
turkey will be found to have much
better flavor than scalded one. ALI
poultry that is dry picked costs a few
cents a pound more than the scalded,
but is well worth the extra price.-Maria
Parloa in Ladies' Home Journal.

Cork growing in Spain and Portugal is
an extremely precarious business, and it
demands considerable capital. Only the
other day man in this city was seeking
partner with 500, 000t to put into cork
forest in Spain, with a lease of $50 years.
The bark is cut only once in ten years,
but as the forests are very large the
grower manages to obtain an annual
crop. This years crop is just beginning
to come into the American market, the
trees having been barked in July and
August.
Crude cork comes over in great bales
weighing from 175 to 225 pounds each.
The heat to which it is subjected in
order to fatten out its curves also drives
out most of the insects, such as one
would naturally expect to find in bark.
As cork is too light to form cargo of
itself, the cork carrying vessels also
bring oil, olives, wine and heavy mer-
chandise of various sorts.--New York

An rmportan. Translation.

OF the Papyrus Ebers, the important
medical manuscript which George Ebers,
the we'll known German Psychologist
and novelist, acquired at Luxsor eight
cen or nineteen years ago, only frag-
ments-the chapter on diseases of the
eyes, for instance--have, with Professor
Hirschberg's help, yet been translated.
Ebers shrank from translating the whole,
on the ground that medical knowledge
was requisite for the task. He expressed
this opinion when he and Ludwig Stern
edited the manuscript in 1875. A COM
plete translation has now been made by
a Berlin medical man, Dr. Heinrich
Joachim, who learned Egyptian for the
purpose, and has been working at the
translation for several years. Thanks
to his labors, the Oldest medical work in
the world is now accessible to all who
can read German.
Joachim thinks that it was written at
latest 1850 years B. c., but that parts of
it are of still older date. 1t consists
mainly of recipes, interspersed here and
there with proverbs. In some passages
advice as to the examination of patients
is given; in others the prognosis indicat-
ed by certain symptoms is stated. The
treatise shows that palpation of the alb
domen was practiced by the old Egyp-
tan physicians.-Berlin Cor. London

All the country must be glad there Is
a prospect that tine state debt Of vir-
GINA will be settled at last. This debt
was incurred mostly at the time when
the internal improvement craze struck
the states Of this Union bout sixty
years ago. Money brought higher
rate of interest than it does now, and
the old Virginia planters, however good
presidents they made, were poor finan-
ciers. So the interest piled up and the
state sank more and more deeply in debt.
Then the war came on and settlement
of any kind at any time seemed hope
less. At last, however, twenty-six years
after the close of the war, a basis Of set
Element has been arrived at by joint
committee of creditors and Virginians.
The debt is due mainly in Great Britain.
The basis of settlement is as follows:
Virginia will issue bonds to the amount
Of $40 900, 900, having o century to run.
For the first ten years interest will be
paid on these at the rate OF 2 per cent.
after that 8 per cent. 1t is evident from
this that Virginia expects to be more
prosperous in ten years than she is now.
Let us all hope her expectations will be
realized.

Over the eastern branch OF the Poto-
mac, in Ahacosta, better known as Union
town during the war, there was buried
recently d woman whose story did much
to stimulate the antislavcry sentiment
In the north. She was revelation Of
the possibilities Of rstient negro ambi-

George county, Nd, she WINS a little
slave girl Of six when her owner put her
ont to service In Washington family.
At that ago she began to hoard money to
buy her freedom. Year after year she
put by the pennies, for nothing larger
fell to her in tips.
She had collected 500 In coppers when
the attention Of some Of the public men
of that day was called to her. Hannibal
Hamlin, then in congress but afterward
vice president, became especially inter-
ested. He told the story Of Emeline
Belt with such psthos that $3.50 was con-

her, and few years before the war the

hand over to her master 300 and receive

Judge Finletter. in charging the jury
In case tried in common pivas court,
gass ssn opinion emphatically sustaining
the rights of husbands to rule their
homes
The suit was that of John Yates
against Christiana +. NJ. Greaves,
brought to recover damages for false
arrest and malicious prosecution. Miss
Greaves boarded in Yates house. She
was ordered by him to leave, but Mrs.
Yates, to whom Miss Greaves paid her
board, told her to stay. Yates subse-
quently, upon coming home, qnarreled
with his wife and. it is alleged, choked
her, and when Miss Greaves interfered,
it is alleged, he threatened her. The
next morning Mrs. Yates went with
Miss Greaves TO a magistrates Office,
where the latter swore out warrant
charging Yates with threatening her
life. He was locked up. and spent the
night in station house.
Miss Greaves did not appear against
Yates the next day and he was dis
charged, but in her behalf it was alleged
that her nonappearance was due to a
solicitation by Yates brother-in-law,
who said that he couldn't get bail. After
his release Yates brought the present
suit against Miss Greaves.
Judge Finletter said that Miss Greaves
should have obeyed the direction Of
Yates to leave. She had no right to re-
main in the house against his wish. The
jury would therefore have 10 find a YER
dict for the plaintiff. In arriving at the
damages they should consider the condi
ton in life of the parties, but III finding
for the plaintiff they should not six
their verdict for him for few dollars OF
a few cents, making it ridiculous by the
small amount. but they should give him
such sum as would show that in Phila-
delphia every husband has the right and
must rule his own household.
The jury after a short elaboration re.
turned verdict of $500 for the plaintiff.

The annual ice carnivals at st. Paul
were popular affairs. They attrac led
compliment and attention from many
parts Of the country. Visitors from
other sections Of the Union Travelled to
Minnesota to see the splendid ice palace
and other features of the carnival. But
this winter there will be no ice carnival
in st. Paul. The chamber of commerce
has decided that whereas ice palaces
give the impression that st. Paul is the
coolest place on earth, it is therefore
time to stop building them and take
measures to attract immigration to the
city instead of driving it away thus.
