story of a Loving CUP.

A Bostonian, who has been in London q
good deal, relates that not long since he
had the honor of dining with one OF the
Oldest of the companies in that city, when
he was shown on the loving cup, which
was passed at the conclusion Of the dinner,
the date 1912, He had been told earlier in
the evening that the hall of the company
had been burned tothe ground in the great
fire OF London, and that everything which
the company had had been consumed, so
that he remarked that Of course this cup
was reproduction of an old one.
"Oh, no, was the answer, "this is the
original"
"But how was this preserved in the great
firep

Divides and River nnsins.

The notion that mountain crests form
the divides between the adjacent drainage
slopes is one of the traditions that still
obtain The absurdity Of such an idea be-
comes apparent when one examines any
good map. The Delaware and Susque-
hanna both have their sources west of the
Appalachian mountains Green river trav-
erses the Uinta mountains, having cut its
canyon directly across the range. The
Brahmaputra and Ganges both pierce the
Himalaya mountains and the Huahuum,
rising on the eastern side of the Andes,
cuts the cordillera sharply in twain. The
explanation usually given is that the river
in each case is older than the range, always
having had the right of way, and when the
uplift of the range began it progressed so
slowly that the river deepened its channel
as fast rs the range was uplifted. d.-Ameri

that it destroys all trace of poison, and
therefore renders murder by that method a
less dangerous undertaking-seems to have
been effectively answered Fire destroys

After cremation the ashes of the deceased

the church or some guarded place, and can
not be taken away by the family.

Chicken Itema.

Col. Curtis, of Saratoga county, N. Y,
says; Gapes are caused by worm. A
remedy is to make the chicken inhale
lime dust. Sometimes it kills the worm
and sometimes the chicken. Cholera is
caused by diarrhea, which runs into an
infection. Do not keep chickens on the
same ground; remove all the well ones
from the flock. If a man can realize $1.62
net profit on each hen in a flock of thirty
two, is it not more profitable to keep
hens than cows at the present average
price for cheese and butter, cost of keep
and care of each considered?

Bees Abscondlng for Lack of Food.

DUE tU5COIIIKIIB Tut h4lfCh OF II UU1s
A frequent cause of the desertion Of
bees from their hives is short stores. The
preventive for this state of affairs is ap-
parent, and yet amateurs are always
asking what to do. There is no better
advice, perhaps, than that given by Root
in his book on bee culture, namely: After
the bees have swarmed out and are put
back into the hive give them heavy
comb of sealed stores if you can; if not,
feed them q little at time until they
have plenty, and be sure that they have
brood in the combs, If necessary give
them comb of unsealed larv@ from some
other hive, and then feed them until
they have great abundance of food.

or Interest TO Lovers of Natural History.
Lovers of natural history will be inter
ested to know that two wildcats have been
shot in Scotland. For several years past
these animals have been supposed to be ex-
tinct. In 1877 couple of young ones were
taken from a nest in Sutherlandshire and
presented to the Royal Geological society.
Their keeper there pronounced them the
most absolutely untamable animals under
his control. Since their death the Zoologi-
cal society has been anxious to procure
successors, but has failed to do SO. Hence
these survivals of wild life are profoundly
interesting to biologists, who are looking
with great curiosity to the attempt now be-
ing made to perpetuate the wild white
cattle of Britain at the Geological Gardens.

every reflection,
rather heightened exposure must be given
to bring out the more distant figures
clearly.
While theoretically the number of sue
cessive images is infinite, practically they
very soon fade away into invisibility, owing
to the loss of light at each successive re-
Aection, as is very clearly shown in the

New BIotting Paper.

A new process for manufacturing blot
ting paper consists in taking unsized paper
as it comes from the paper machine, and ex-
posing one or both of the sides to the dis
turbing action of mechanical means for
opening up its surface; for instance, to the
grinding or abrasive action of sand paper,
emery wheels, wire brushes, or to the action
of cards or scrapers. Such action separates
and lifts the surface fibers. This process,
says Paper Making, produces highly abb
sorbent or bibulous paper, especially adapt
ed for use as commercial blotting paper,
and for other purposes where an absorbent
paper is required and having its fibers sep
arated and raised, and presenting a vel.
vety surface as distinguished from ordinary
blotting paper. By this process blotting
can be manufactured from any kind of
paper, regardless of the stock or material
from which it is made.

and rivet securely to plate, as shown in

implement for digging out plants from

be found much more convenient than q

If carefully studied in connection with
the figures underneath it the accompany
ing diagram will explain more clearly
than words the desirability Of having
certain parts of the hog improved and
increased in weight, while the less avail
able parts may be correspondingly re-
duced, and this without detriment to the
constitution or fecundity Of the animal
For instance, readers will know that the
fore end, marked No. II, is the lowest
priced part of the side of bacon. 1t is
therefore desirable to reduce in weight
as much as possible. On the other hand
the piece No. 0, the loin, is high priced,
and it is important that the weight Of
this be increased.
1t is desired to emphasize what was
designated in the beginning as point
three, "deep in the heart and around the
ribs" Looking at this from the con-
sumer's point Of view, pig which is
deep in the heart and around the ribs
will of necessity produce larger guam
tity of first class bacon, viz, prime back
and ribs, prime streaky. This is one of
the most valuable parts of the animal,
and it is therefore desirable to add as
much as possible to its weight. From a
breeders standpoint the pig that is deep
in the heart and round or well sprung in
the ribs will certainly be good feeder,
because he has plenty Of room for his
stomach, liver, heart and all the main
organs. A pig that is long in the legs is
nearly always fiat in the ham and lack
ing in plumpness. Good hair is an indi-
cation Of strength Of constitution as well
