Young Rats Adopted by a Cat.

Brainard Ives, the Mount Carmel stage
driver, has cat that has recently shown
most remarkable eccentricities. A short
t re ago the cat became the mother of
several kittens. \ day or SO later while
prowling about in the barn it came
across a nest of young rats, which num-
bered three in all. Instead of killing and
eating them, as might be supposed the
cat would do, she carried them to her
own nest and placed them with her young
kittens, nursing them as she did her own
offspring.
Ever since the kittens and rats have re-
manned together and are thriving splen-
didly The rats have just begun to open
their eyes, while the kittens are some
what older and have been able to see for
several days.-New Haven Register.

The novel suggestion has been made
that ducks should be trained and used
for naval purposes in the same way that
pigeons are used for conveying military
messages. The proposal comes from
Major Allatt, practical pigeon trainer,
who says that if we are going to use
birds to fly over water for naval pur-
poses ducks would be better than pig
cons, because when the duck gets tired
he drops and sits on the water until he
is rested and then goes on again. Ducks,
moreover, can fly by night, while pigeons
cannot Major Allatt thinks that sea
gulls might be trained also for message
bearing purposes.-London Court Jour

A Gladstone Collar.

Mr.. Gladstone, it is well known, has q
rather long neck, and habitually wears
a collar of the kind which has been
given his name-a collar snowy, imnac-
ulate, extensive and characteristic.
Mr.. Furniss, in innumerable clever
caricatures of the great statesman, has
never failed to make the most of this
article of apparel.
It has long been the custom for the
most regular and frequent contributors
of Punch to meet at q weekly dinner
with the editor, there to communicate
their ideas to one another, criticise, sug-
gest and arrange in the most sociable
and pleasant manner q rough plan Of
the next number to be prepared.
At one of these little dinners Mr..
Gladstone was an honored guest, and
there was some previous speculation as
to how he and Mr.. Furniss would enjoy
meeting.
Mr.. Gladstone proved equal to the &C.
casion. He came, and hardly was he
seated at the table when the company
became aware of change in his famil-
lar personality. A second look revealed
his nature. Mr.. Furniss stared; some
body Uttered. There was q smile, a
ripple, and then roar of laughter.
Mr.. Gladstone had on the smallest
slenderest and most inconspicuous Of
narrow, rundown collars, assumed for
that occasion only, and was quietly en-
joying the artists discontinue.
Mr.. Furniss soon recovered himself,
and appreciated the joke as much as
any one.-Youth's Companion.

LADIES' COLUMN.

1t is accepted that sun preserved
strawberries are better than those
prepared in any other way and now
writer in Demorest's tells how to pre-
serve cherries in similar way. Stone
the cherries and put them on platters
or in fat dishes. To each pint of
cherries put scant pint of granulat-
ed sugar. Mix them well by putting
in first pint of cherries and then
sprinkling the sugar over. Let them
stand over night and by morning the
sugar will have extracted much of the
juice. If they seem not to be juicy in
the morning, set each platter in the
oven for a few minutes only, or in a
warm place ABOUT the stove until the
juice has come out freely. Then set
the platters in the sun-in the hottest
place you can finland put either
glass or some sort of very thin netting
over them. In from day and half
to two days the syrup will thicken and
the fruit will become semi transpar-
ent. Put cold into jars and close them
and the cherries are ready for winter
use. No heating is necessary; but it
is a little better to put into selfseal-
ing Jars than into open ones, merely
to keep the fruit from drying.

EGGS will keep much better in a

Eggs will keep much better in a
cool place. This is an advantage
where it is necessary to place the re-
suits Of several days. collections in
one crate. 1t should not be over
looked that in summer there are oc-
casions when the temperature of the
atmosphere is as high as 100 degrees,
and if eggs are stored away in close
place they may be subjected to two
or three degrees higher heat, which
will cause the germ to grow just as
much as when the eggs are under
hens. If this happens, the eggs will
quickly spoil. Keep the eggs in a
cool place, where the air will circulate
around them, such as on rack. If
they are turned over once in two days
it will be an advantage.

Bill KeeIer's Big Strike.

The well-known miner, VIM.
Keller, returned this week from a
several months trip in the East
Kootenai country. Bill has been
prospecting and doing assessment
work on some of his valuable prop
critics.
He made new strike on Rainey
Creek recently and came down to
have Assayer Hummer ascertain the
value of the ore. On two assays,
gray copper, the silver ran from
800 to $40 per ton. He is having
ore from another lead, Z feet wide,
assayed which he believes will go
$500 to the ton. He says he has
been looking for six years for a
claim that was rich enough that he
could work himself. He counts
that he has at last found it. The
discovery is only three miles from
the Kootenai river and the Great
Northern.
