Taper IIorseshoes.

It would be hard to make an an
nouncement of q new use Of paper
which should cause any lively surprise.
And yet the introduction Of horseshoes
made of paper in the cavalry service Of
the German army seems extraordinary
enough to excite interest. Several
cavalry horses were first shod with pa
per shoes and the effect was observed
1t was found that not only did the light
ness and elasticity of the shoe help the
horse on the march, making it possible
for him 10 travel faster and further
without fatigue than horses shod with
iron, but that the paper shoe had the
property of being unaffected by water
and other liquids. 1t is now proposed
to replace iron with paper horseshoes in
the entire German army.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
UTILIZING COLD MEATS.

A serious question with every house
keeper is how to utilize cold meat. The
boarding house methods of preparing
hash and stew have brought these dishes
into dispute. The French have taught
us that there is much in the name, es-
pecially in the culinary department. Do
not provide stew for dinner, have ra-
govt; the name will predispose the fam.
lily in favor of the dish. The name,
however, is not sufficient; the ragout
must be properly prepared. Cut a pint
OF cold meat into half-iEch dice, remove
the fat, bone and gristle. Put the meat
into the saucepan, cover with cold water,
aud allow it to simmer slowly for two or
three hours, or until tender; add half
can of mushrooms, cut fine, and two
tablespoonfuls of wine; season with salt
and pepper, thicken with a tablespoonful
of -four moistened with a little cold
water, cook for about ten minutes, and
serve on platter with border of mashed
potato or boiled rice.-Ne1o Yor5 HorId.

A Bridge Rnilt hr Ants.

The following remarkable story, told
by an eye witness. is entitled to place
among the instances of intelligence in
the lower animals A cook was much
annoyed to find his pastry shelves at
tackled by ants. BY careful watching it
WIS discovered that they came out twice
day in search of food, at about seven
in the morning and four in the after
noon. How were the pies to be pro-
tected against the invaders? He could
think of nothing but moat Of mo-
iasses to encircle them, This he made,
and sat down before the citadel TO await
the attack
He did not have long to wait, for Mt
ten minutes efore seven he noticed
that off in the left corner Of the pantry
was line of ants slowly making their
way in the direction of the pies. They
seemed like vast army coming forth
to attack the enemy. In front was a
leader who was larger than any of the
others, and who always kept ahead of
his troops. They were of the sort known
as the medium sized rcd ant, which is
regarded as the most intelligent OF its
kind, whose scientific name is foImiea
rabra. About forty ants out Of five
hundred joined the leader. The general
and his aids held a council. and then
proceeded to examine the circle of mo
lasses. Certain portions Of it seemed
to be assigned to the different ants, and
2 Oh selected uuerringly the point in
the section under his charge where the
stream of molasses was narrowest.
Then the leader made his tour of in
spection. The order to march was given,
and the ants all made their way to p
hole in the wall in which the plastering
VAS loose. Here they broke rank and
set about carrying pieces of plaster to
the place in the molasses which had
been agreed upon as the narrowest. To
aud fro they went from the nail hole to
the molasses until, at half-past eleven,
they had thrown bridge across. They
then formed themselves in line and
marched over, and by quarter to twelve
every ant was eating pie.

A Collection Of Scnlns.

The National Museum has very large
collection of scalps, and it is wonderful
to think what tragic tales they would
have to tell if they could only speak.
One of them is crown of real golden
hair with circle of skin attached reft
from the head of little German girl at
the Mountain Meadow massacre. In
spots 1t it stained with the victims
blood-a pitiful reminder. OF the same
party of honest pioneers may have been
the man from whose caput a shock of
black and curly locks was torn; it forms
a part Of the exhibit. There are many
other scalps of white people and Indians
the former most curly and readily dis
tingui5hable from the straight black hair
of the aborigines. The long tresses of
women, blonde aud brunette, suggest to
the mind imagiaings none too fearful Of
ira seliss, with outrage and torture as a
preliminary. A single warriors trophy
belrs penlant twelve scalps, each repro.
seatiag a murder.
Ole of the most unpleasant Of these
tragic memorabilia at the museum Is
necklace Ct thumbs, fourteen in all.
They are all thumbs OF the right hail.

There is fine salmon fishing in the
Galway River in Ireland, and con
siderable attention has been given to
breeding them and to protecting the
young fish. | counted from the bridge
two hundred salmon in the water on
The gravel beds, and they were just as
plenty beyond. They seldom weigh
more than twenty pounds. The
sportsman must pay five dollars per
day for the privilege of fishing, and
then possesses only one-third of the fish
which he has taken. saw gentleman
fishing, standing nearly leg deep in the
cold running water from the northern
lakes, and it seemed to me that he was
paying dearly for his sport.
There seems to be no begging there,
and the common people have an air of
independence which | did not see in
the South, where their Bringing manner
IN the presence of the upper class was
painful. The laboring classes have>a
strange mulligatawny complexion,
which must be caused either by eating
fish or by the raw winds from the
Atlantic. | was much interested in
the Claddah, a people here who devote
themselves to fishing and have kept
themselves distinct from the rest Of the
inhabitants from time immemorial
They live in a section by themselves,
where their hus stand so close together
that they have not gardens nor yards.
Until the last foity years they were
allowed to maintain an independent
government, and elected king once in
three years, whose duty it was to
arrange for the fishing, to settle the
proportion of the catch which belonged
to each, and to arbitrate in the
numerous disputes which arose among
them, Like all seafaring people they
are very superstitious One of them
said he would not sail on fishing
voyage if he met red-haired woman
on the way to his boat. They value
very highly the blessing of the priest
upon their nets before sailing.

MAcAR3S1, ITALIAN STYLE.

A dish of macaroni served in Italian
style is one Of the most delicious we
have. Genuine Italian tomato sauce
may be purchased of dealers III Italian
dehcacies. 1t comes in tiny porcelain
cans, and is made OF tomato which is
grown especially for the purpose in
Italy. Boil half pound of spaghetti or
small macaroni in abundance of water
for twenty-five minutes, then pour off the
water, shake the macaroni to make it
perfectly dry, as you would potatoes,
sld turn it into a hot dish. Sprinkle
tarse tablespoonsfuls of grated ParmeSan
cheese over it, pour little hot tomato.
sauce over this, and serve the whole
with dish of grated cheese accompany
ing it. Though the genuine tomato
sauce is believed by Italians to be
speciality of their country, equally deli
cious sauce is made from a small tomato
grown here, which, like the Italian to-
nato used fol this purpose, has a large
proportion of pulp to seed. --Ne,0 York.
