Kitchen Conferences

1t comes to US by inheritance through
many generations, this feeling Of close
alliance between home and kitchen,
Did you never see big boys away from
home i'll boarding places how pleased
and comforted they feel if they can only
get familiar enoughin the house to have
the run of the kitchen? Cooperative
housekeeping, community cook room,
meals out, ETC., are Justly popular
with those who cannot afford the luxury
of the home kitchen, but they are rarely
ones first choice. The very odors of
the pickles and preserves and broiled
ham and coffee draw aforementioned
person that way. After all the heights
and depths of human experience are
sounded. to get into the old
Kitchen where the sun shines
through the vines at the door and the
lilacs look in at the window, and to sit
down with those you love best at a
home-prepared meal-well, its about
the truest enjoyment the world affords.
This may sound gross enough to those
who believe it possible to Cow into such
state of l-mindedness that the
soul may forget the body and enjoy life
independent of its earthiness, but very
few or US can hope to arrive at that eY-
allied state. And the charms of home
life, with all its Kitchen details,n will
still lie very near to the heart of domes-
tic enjoyment. The extremists are
those who make drudges and slaves of
themselves to this sentiment and those
who ignore the wholesome pleasure of
1t altogether. Between these lies a
golden mean, where the sunshine and
temperature are about right for the
average mortal woman.

THE LOST OASIS FOUND.

Explorers Had Looked for 1t i'm
Vain Ever Since Giles Discov.
cred 1t.
In 1875, when E. Giles made his
famous journey across the southern part
of Australia. travelling through deserts
that had never been visited before, he
discovered place that was green and
fertile. This oasis in the desert was
the result of some springs which came
to the surface there and gave the coun-
try for large distance around the as
pect OF rich and yerdant agricultural
lands. He named the place Victoria
Spring, and when he came home he said
many thousands of cattle or sheep
could be raised there, He had nowhere
seen more promising grazing land than
this oasis.
Curiously enough, he did not accu-
rately define the position of Victoria
Spring. Ever since his journey the
place has been marked upon the maps.
but several explorers who tried to find
Victoria Spring have failed, and some
critics were unkind enough to intimate
that the oasis had existed only in the
imagination of the man who de-
scribed it.
The news comes now from Australia
tnat the spring has been discovered
again. j. p. Brooks writes from IsraeIite
bay to Baron Won Muller, who is we'll
known for his important labors In be-
half of Australian exploration, that a
Swede named Frank Neuman has found
Victoria spring. The letter says
that the spring is 135 miles
north of the short Frazer range
of mountains, in the south
ern part of West Australia, and that
hereafter this oasis may be easily
reached from the south coast. Neuman
says, as Giles reported earlier. that
animal life is abundant, that there is a
fine growth OF grass, and that about
1000 acres are splendidly adapted for
sheep Or cattle raising. In fact, it is a
very beautiful and fertile oasis in the
midst of sea of sand which will never
be turned to any profitable account.
But the most curious thing about Vic
toria Spring is that, although all the
maps have shown 1t where it was sup
posed Giles found the spring, no one
was ever able to run across it during
the sixteen years since he discovered it

The pallium. such as was recently
conferred OH Archbishop Katzer. is a
white WOODEN band about two inches
wide, and long enough to be worn
around the shoulders and be crossed in
front. 1t is made at Rome from the
wool of two lambs which the Sisterhood
OF Santa Agnese offer every year on the
occasion of the feast of their matronal
saint, while the Agnus Del is sung at
mass. The pallium has crosses worked
upon the white wool in black and orna-
mentS are attached to the ends. 1t is
sent by the pope to every newly APP
pointed archbishop. and the origin of
its use for this purpose dates back to a
very early time In the history of the
church. 1t is mentioned in an ecclesi-
astical document of the time of Pope st.
Mark, who died in the year 336, ana all
eighth century mosaic represents Pope
st. Leo in the act of receiving pallium
almost like the one conferred upon

NEW YORK, Oct 30.-Charley John

he had arrived safely at San Francisco,

NO HOSPITAL FOR HIM.

Years in the Stase--Hoxv He
Managed H.

Providence. R. l., Oct. S0.-On Dec. IL,
1890, Frank Smith was recommended for
admission TO the Rhode Island Hospital
by DR.. Terry. The diagnosis was dia-
betes.
Mr.. Smiths residence is 165 Richmond
ST., in this city. On Sunday last Mr..
Smith wrote the following letter:
dec. IL, 1890. had recommends
ton by a physician admitting me to the
Rhode Island Hospital. At that time
had pain and stiffness in my legs, and
staggered like an old man of 80. /
drank at least two gallons of water a
day. 1t was then that l began to lose
my sight. and the FIVE doctors that
had told me Twas afflicted with diabetes.
Il tried several medicines that were
recommended, but found that they did
me no good. Seven weeks ago / began
using Paine's celery compound, and to-
day can run as well as any man of so
in this state. For two years back l have
had tingling in my fingers and toes,
like lightning, that comes from my
heart. but PaiDe's celery compound is
getting the better Of it.
MAY the Lord pour His choicest
blessings on the man that discovered
this remedy. Every man see that has
an ache or pain L tell him about this
compound. 1t cures them all with the
first bottle.
''There is one old man. who lives near
me, who has been on crutches for long
while. 1 got him bottle of the CON-
pound, and he has already thrown away
one of his crntches, and will soon go
without any.
Gail my friends wonder how | have
picked up, and ask me what doctor 1
have had. / tell them Paine's celery
c6fnpodnd has done all this for me.
Every word of this is true, and am
willing to swear it before any judge in
the world"
This letter was addressed to the well
known firm of Wells, Richardson & Co.,
of Burlington, and contains only what
Mr.. Smith has abundaptly proved to be
true by his appearance. 1t Is one of
many cases.

THOUSANDS OF VICTIMS.
The Earthquake in Japan Was an
Astounding Affection.

Astounding Affection.
LONDON. Oct. 80. = Dispatches re-
ceived here from Hiogo, japan, say that
the terrible earthquake which occurred
in that country Wednesday last de-
stroyed the towns of Nagoya, Gifu and
Ogaki. All the public buildings and
most of the smaller structures in these
places were thrown down. A fire which
started among the wrecked buildings in
Nagoya completed the work of destruc-
ton in the most crowded quarter of the
place. 1t is estimated that the total
number of persons who lost their life
by the disaster exceeds 5000.
Many vessels are reported to have
been wrecked in the vicinity of Hiogo,
and during the seismic disturbances the
waters of the lakes in the surrounding
country were violently agitated. A few
portions of the Niphoa Islands escaped
the earthquake and Kobe Suf-
fered comparatively little damage.
The number of Europeans who
lost their lives by the terri
bic visitation is small. The various
wagon roads are blockaded by the i'm
mense heaps of debris, traffic on the
different railroads is suspended and all
the telegraph lines are entirely pros
trated, thus shutting off almost all COM
munication with the devastated places.
In consequence full details of the awful
catastrophe cannot be learned for sew
eral days to come. a.
