The body of a man, a>patlve of Passy,
near Chamounix, Switzerland, who had
been missing since 1844-forty-seyen
years ago-has just been discovered in
the creviee Of glacier, near Mount
Blanc. He left his home on pilgrim
age to the Great st. Bernard, and had
never been since heard of, until a
pedestrian, exploring the glacier, came
upon the body, which was in a perfect
state of preservation, and papers found
on his person fully identified him.
The body was strapped and carried on
the back of a guide overth mountains
to Passy, where he was buried, after
lying in State for twenty-four hours.

SHIPMENT OF FRlut.
Mistakes to BE Avoided and Precad ions
Essential to Success.

Essential to Success.
Some skill is required for meeting all
the conditions for successfully shipping
fruit by the wholesale quantity, over
long lines of railway, with perfect
safety, SO that when the packages are
opened the specimens may be as plump
and fresh rs in the hour when they
were taken from the tree. Apples are
commonly packed in barrels and pears
in half barrels, and to prevent anr
rafting or shaking, or bruising in tran
sit, they muse be firmly pressed to-
gether. There is certain natural
elasticity il, these fruits as they APP
proach maturity, and before they be-
come soft. before which they are hard
er and unyielding. The kegs or barrels
before filling are placed temporarily
upside down, and the contents grad
ually and carefully laid in them, with
an occasional jarring to bring them
compactly together. They should be
about an inch more than level full, the
lever pressure on the head and the
elasticity of the fruit making them
solid and unyielding. The barrel is
then turned right end up and the
directions marked on it for shipment
They will then go safely Thousand
miles or more, if the work has bDer
well performed.
Some packers, wishing to make she
fruit appear better in quality thar il
really is, face or ''plait'' each pack
age with better specimens than the
average, by placing select ones at thu
bottom when about to begin filing the
kegs or barrels, bring these first tt
view when the heads are reversed ant
opened. This is deception, which NJ
honest man will practice The frs
fruit exhibited should be fair exhibi
ton of the whole contents.
The mistake is sometimes madI o
including single specimens, when to-
ripe or soft, as in case of the packer o
Bartlett pears, who saw one so fine an
handsome, although turning yellow
with ripeness, that he was tempted tt
include it in the package. 1t had los
It's elasticity, and, becoming Scf!
yielded to the pressure of the har
pears around it, and was crushed an
destroyed by the jar of the railroad
: This loosened the others, which /
: turn were bruised and spoiled. TIL
whole co ntents of the package thus ht
came bruised and worthless, but tn
was only small part of the loss to TIL
J simmer. for the purchasers would tr
no more Bartlett pears from SO careles
a source.
These remarks on shipping apple
and pears by the quantity, do not az
ply to packing small and select peal
in baskets and boxes for conveyarC
by express, nor to choice specimens q
apples, each of which is wrapped
tissue paper for special markets.

How to Handle an unaershirt.


Z There is one art, seemingly sin pie,
that is known to very Few, and that is
the art of taking off shirt after exer-
cising No one who frequents the gym
nasiums during the summer season can
have failed to notice men Juggling and
straining at their fiapnel shirts in Q
vain entleavor to get them off. A fan
mel shirt, especially an undershirt'
when wet with perspiration, sticks con-
siderably closer than brother, and
hundreds of them have been torn by
trying to remove them in the manner
that isusual when they are dry. But wet
shirt has no terrors for anyone who
knows how to handle it. Cross the
arms, take hold OF the left side OF the
shirt with the right hand, and the right
side with the left hand, and the gar
ment can be pulled of with perfect
ease This knowledge would have
spared hundreds much Inconvenience
and has sensibiy diminished the average
profanity. st Louis Globe Democrat.

but little injured. The explanation of
this difference is to be found in the
fact that the blight fungus is pro-
pagated during the summer by means
OF microscopic spores, which of course,
fell in greatest numbers upon the
young plants nearest the blight-in-
Tested ones, The lesson to be drawn
from the TACT is too plain to need point
ing out. If it were possible, indeed, to
isolate beds of young plants so as to
prevent the access to the leaves of all
spores, plants might be kept free from
blight indefinitely.
All through the summer the blight is
propagated by these long spores.
Toward fall the threads which have
been mentioned as forming the grow
ing part of the parasite within the SUBJ
stance of the strawberry leaf, form
solid, tissue-like masses in the dead
part of spots, and finally these appear
at the surface as small black dots. The
function of these little podules appears
to be to preserve the parasite condi
tions of weather unfavorable to active
growth and multiplication. They are
in the old leaves all winter, and send
out in spring threads bearing spores
similar to the long, jointed Summer
spores
The cut willshow the .peculiarcharae-
ter of this fungus.

Making Clothing Last,

In the line of fixing over old dresses,
remember that shirrs and plaits will

buy some velveteen or silk to go with
it and you will have dress You will
like better than a new one. If YOU re-
model your froclSs habitually It is well
to buy standard rather than those col.
ors which are the rage of to-day. FIRE.
quently waist the edge of which is
worn, can be converted into round
waist, with q velvet girdle or sash;
but as general thing remodeled
dress should always have new waist,

ed material, it is frequently wise to buy
more than is needed, as the extra
amount comes in handy for the remod.

PEKIN ducks are best where there are
no ponds.
If kept dry and clean, earth makes a

HENS must be provided with warm

MUCH loss in eggs is often oces stoned
by allowing the hens to lay outside the

If eggs are to be kept any time they
should be washed clean as soon as they
are gathered
ONE reason why corn should be fed
ut night during the winter is that il is
one of the very best materials for MAX

Late Styles Show Tendency to Increased

1t sounds odd to say that the novel
feature of round hats is that they have
crowns. But this is true, as the mere
plateaux-fiats pi1ched into shape
worn during the summer are to be
superseded by hats that have distinct
crown. And such crowns, of such alb
surd and diverse shapes! Some are not
larger than q biscuit. and are shaped
like door-l1nob. Others are pointed
in tiny tent shape, or like cones or
mushrooms or sugar-loaves, but none
are more than two or three inches high,
and all have their queer shape hidden,
as they are merely a support for trim
ming. patterned, cone-lil1e crowns

most have room for bow inside, next

IN front, with wings pointing toward
the back. The first hats brought out
Were of medium size, but later importa-
tions show tendency to increased size.

RATiCNS FOR PIGS.
Relative Amounts of Fat and Lean I'm
changed by Ordinary Foods.

Bulletin 10 of the Virginia expert
ment station gives the details of ex-
periments with different rations fed
to pigs to determine their relative
economy and the comparative amount
of fat and lean produced by each. The
first ration was corr meal alone, in
which the percentage of nitrogen was
quite small; the second consisted of
10 parts corn meal, parts bran, and l
part beef scrap, and the third of parts
corn meal, 2 parts bran and 2 parts
beef scrap, which had large percent
age of nitrogen. At the beginning of
the experiment the 8 groups of pigs
Is in each group weighed about the
same amount. hut it soon became evil
dent the third group which. ate.most
heterogeneous food, was not gaining as
rapidly as the others. and after about
2months all three of this group died.
An examination showed that they per-
ished from lack of power to assimilate
food The other groups We're slaugh-
tered after 10 weeks feeding, but no
difference in the relative amounts of
fat and lean could he discovered. The
group fed corn meal alone had gained
pound live weight for 14.79 pounds of
dry substance in food eaten, at a cost
of 53 cents per pound gained The
group fed 10 prrts corn meal, 4 parts
bran, and 1 part beef scraps gained i
pound live weight for ~. "a pounds dry
substance in food eaten, at a cost of
As cents per pound gained. To sum
Marie it appears: l. That very mar.
row ration is not fed with economy,
and may even caEnse death through
lack Of power TO assimilate food in 10
concentrated form. .. That not the
slightest difference is made in the pro
portions of fat and lean meat in hogs
fed corn meal alone and corn meal,
beef scrap and bran. s. That the Cog,
per pound increase of Live ,stock weight
was one-half of 1 cent per pound in
favor of the bran-fed lot
