work of testing milk. The method,
similar to those now in use, consists in
mixing measure of the milk to be
tested with enough alcohol and sui
phuric acid. and rapidly whirling the
mixture to separate the fat Fig 1
represents only one of a number OF
very cheap and simple machines, which
anyone can make, and only one way of
attaching it. In this tho test bottles,
while being whirled, are supported in
a piece of 2x+inch scantling, fifteen
inches long, ceHtered on the upper end
of the shaft. This is made of FIVE
elghths-inch rod iron, eight inches
long, with upper end squared and
slightly tapered TO fit into a square
hole in the center of the whirlcr. The
shaft turns in block Mt the side and
through n hole with tin bearing) in
the top of the table. A small pulley on
the shaft is connected by band with
the wheel at the left, turning on bolt
through the leg of the table. One turn
of the wheel makes about ten of the
whirler, which should make about 500
per minute while testing. The capaci-
ty of the whirler is easily increased by
making two crosspieces, and still
further by q continuous wheel The
cost of the machine is about fifty cents.
The work of making test is brief

for the pair however faithful or re.
solved they were.
College professors generally are not
much addicted TO either the accumula-
ton or the love of money, but Prof
Macadam was rather an exception to
the rule. Sixty years of age, noted as
a great mathematician and astronomer,
he had long had good income from
his teaching and books, had boarded
and made good investments asd was n
rich man. Lee, being an only child,
was in a fair way some day of coming
into fortune, and her father was re-
solved that it should not go TO any
poor man He had often expressed his
opinion on this subject; it was well
known to the lovers, but this did not
prevent Prof. Morgan, who was Just
beginning and had only fair salary
with no surplus, from asking the old
man for his daughter.
The interview was not n long one,
but there was a good deal of low
barometer and high temperature to it,
Macadam fumed and said something
about fortune hunters and fatty de-
clined to consider the subject of such
IN alliance. "It is absurdI'' he said.
"What would you live on?"
Prof. Morgan intimated that two
people might sustain themselves in a
modest way on the salary he was get
ting.
Nonsense, sirl Nonsenser' was the
retort. MY daughter has been accus-
toned to u better style of living than
you could afford her and / decline to
consider the proposition for a moment.
You're in no condition to support u
wife, sir! Figures do not lie, sir! Fig
ures do not lier'
Prof. Morgan suggested that figures
sometimes did give n wrong i'm pres
sion.
Then it is because they are used by
an incompetent person! am surprised
that you, sir, assistant professor of as
tronomy in n great in titution of learn
ing, should assert that any mathcmati-
cal fact is not nn actual one. Prove to
me that figures lie and you can have
my daughterl But this is only non
sense. You are presumptuQgs and

WHAT MY CLOCK SAYS.

Hold fast, droamer-oo not fret,
Everything will come right yet.
Life holds nothing worth regret
Let the sun rise-let it set.
Ihave seen the young grow old;
Seen the fond turn stern and cold;
Seen the selfish, vain and proud
Feed the worm and crease the shrouo-
Do not cry,
Do not sigh;
All will como right by and by.
Pearls. aud gems, and jewels fine,
FIshed from sea or dug from mine.
Silken rainent. flmy lace,
Vanish ali, and leave no trace.
Those who walk and those who ride
Yet must lie down, side by side,
When their cruel master. Death.
Seals the eyes and steals the breath.
Do not sigh,
Do not cry;
All will come right by and By.
Ihave seen the high brought low,
Seen the seasons come and 60;
Fields Of bloom and wastes Of snow,
Sunny skies and winds that blow
And mark out all the hours
Whether there arc frosts or flowers
Night and day and day and night
Feeling sorrow nor delight.
Do not cry,
Do not sigh;
All will conc right by and by.
Some days come, and shadows bring;
Then come joys-but they take wing;
Nothing matters, here, to me;
Time drifts to eternity,
And like streams that southwark run,
Mingling in the SEA as one,
So tend all thiugs-every way
To oblivion and decay.
Do not sigh,
Do not cry;
All will come right By and by.
Ihave seen the pure and sweet
Smirched with mire from the streett
Seen Sin and her daughter Wee
Lock as chaste and cold as ice;
Seen the hungry and the poor
Beg for bread from door TO door;
Yet-for all the rich mans load
God widens not the Narrow Road.
Do not sigh,
Do not cry;
All will come right BY and by.
Nothing mattersi Nothing can
In the destiny OF man.
Vain, alas all tears and sighs;
Vain, reproaches-vain, replies.
Silence and decay must fall
Like a shadow on you all;
And He who made your life span
Will Judge as never judges man.
Do not sigh,
De not cry;
All will come right BY and by.

rious features of the astronomical dis
cussion between Prof. Macadam, of
Joplin university, aud Prof Morgan, of
tho Same institution, but newspaper
comment has related only to the scien-
tiflc aspect of the case, lacking all ref
erences to the origin of the debate and
to the inevitable woman and the ro-
nance. AS matter of fact, the discus
sion which has set the scientific world,
or at least the astronomical part of 1t,
by the ears, had its inception in a love
affair and terminated with tina. affairs
symmetrical development. 1t has
seemed to nee that something more
than the dry huslls of the story should
be given to the public and that great
many people might be quite us much
interested in the romance as in the
mathematical conclusions reached.
That Is why | tell the tale in full
Had Prof. Macadam never owred
daughter, or had the one appertaining
TO him been plain instead of charming,
young Prof. Morgan would never have
broken metaphoric lance with the
crusty senior educator. But Prof.
Macadam did have daughter, Lee
odd name for a girl she was about
as pretty as girl nay grow to be, and
sometimes they grow that way amaz-
ingly She was clever, too, and good,
and Prof. Morgan had not known her
for half year when it was all up with
him. 1t became essential for his per-
manent welfare, mental, moral and
physical, that this particular young
woman should be his, to have and to
hold, and he did not deny the fact to
himself at ali. Without going into de-
tail, it may be added that he did not
deny the fact to her, either, and so ex-
erted himself and improved his oppor-
tunities that before much time elapsed
he had secured a strong ally in his de-
signs. This ally was the young lady
herself, and it will be admitted that
Prof. Morgan had thus made a fair be-
ginning. But all was not to be easy

and the bottle shaken vigorously until
the curd is dissolved, and the contents
become hot solution of light brown
color. The neck is then nearly filed
with weak acid (equal parts OF strong
acid and water), the bottle placed in
the whirler and whirled for about half
a minute, or until all the fat appears
as clear yellow oil within the gradua-
tions OF the neck, from which its per-
centage is read at once. The time re-
quired to make test Is about two
minutes, and the cost for chemicals
about one-fourth of cent Cream,

q similar way, If fair sample can be
obtained with the pipette. For cream
a pipette delivering As grains is used,
and the reading multiplied by three for
the per cent. of fat One hundred tests
require about one-half pound of nlco-
hol and five pounds of acid, both of
which may be obtained from any drug
gist. The pipette costs twenty-five
cents, the bottles fifty cents each. An
accurate milk tester of some kind
should be used by every farmer who
has much milk to sell or butter to
make. Its use will enable him to form
an intelligent idea of the dairy value

SIMPLE MILK TESTER.
Valuable Information from rroE >.

Valuable Information from ProE J. II.
fulton, of Connecticut-
One of the prime clements of success
in dairying at the present day is a
knowledge of the commercial value of
the milk handled. 1t Is generally con-
ceded that the value of milk for near
ly every purpose is in proportion to its
percentages of fat, and many attempts
have been made to devise a satisfactory
method of testing milk on the basis Of
the fat contained. To be of popular
use such a method must be rapid and
Simple, rs well as accurate and com.
paratively Inexpensive The principal
methods that have been tried are lack
ing in one or more of these require
ments.
The machine and method here de.
scribed are the result of an effort to
cheaper and simplify still further the

PRACTICAL EDUCATION.
The Kind That Best Fits Man to Make
n Living.


n Living.
In order to be successful in active
life man must have working knowl-
edge of three things:
First-Human nature.
Second - The practices in vogue
among his neighbors.
Third-Logic
Whatever study or mental exercise
or discipline teaches him the most re-
garding these matters is the best practi-
cal education. This practical educa-
ton must be supplemented by special
training in the prerequisites OF that
particular vocation in life which he is
to follow.
Other things being equal, large
school or college affords better edu-
cation than small one. for the reason
that II gives to each student larger
opportunity to observe human nature
and the customs of his neighbors. The
mere informa alton obtained by studying
textbooks is in itself ordinarily of very
little value compared with the whet-
ting which it gives 10 the mind, and
when the mind is once sharpened it
should be so turned as to lean from the
world of to-day, If the student wishes
to be in the world and of the world.
Should he show-a fondness for study
ing politics and wish to enter public
life. u comprehension of American
democracy is of more value to him
than knowledge of Athenian democ-
racy. Should he decide to enter busi-
ness, knowledge of human nature and
business practices is of equal conse-
quence with logical nicely of calcula-
tion-an important result of studying
the classics-however valuable this last
may be. This fact explains why it is
that those valedictorians who do not
join in the general life of their college
class and who devote themselves en-
tirely to the textbooks are frequently
outstripped in public life, law and
business by classmates who stood a
grade or two lower in scholarship.
These latter give portion of time to
observing their environment, while
valedictorians of the kind mentioned
take all their views from books, and
are consequently less self-reliant N.

variations in Butter Fat.

At the Illinois experiment station
tests have been made to determine the
copstancy OF the amount OF butter fat
in milk, and it appears that though tho
general law, that the amount Of milk
decreased and the percentage OF butter
fat increased as the period OF lactation
progressed held true, yet there were
surprising variations of almost daily
occurrence. The amount OF butter tat
might be six per cent. more In the
morning and by night drop of three or
four per cent. From these investiga-
tions it is apparent that single test
for only day or two can give no re-
liably correct idea of q cows milk and
capacity.

A Nlhilistic Trick.

The Odessa police force was put in
great commotion recently by singular
incident Before the house of the
Natchalnili of the city, the chief of tho
police, was big gun, fred every day
at noon. The gun was fastened with n
heavy chain to tho granite base of a
pillar before the house of the official.
When the artillerymen came to fire the
gun they did not find it. A search was
Immediately instituted, but nothing
could be discovered. One week later
parts of the gun and of the heavy chain
were found before the residences of the
highest officials in town. 1t is supposed
that the revolutionists or nihilists re-
moved the gun to show the government
officials their power and craft. There is
no doubt but that many persons must
have labored at this feat. Still, not u
trace of the perpetrators can be discov-
