mo. by Jove! 1 didn't think she

"Rather mild scolding that, I
think"
"Well, a pretty thorough overhaul
ing them" John said with Il faint at
tempt at a laugh, s'but really" he
added, ''this places me in a bad fix. I
have bought the Allston estate, and
there are minerals OH it that make it
a big bargain. 1 was to give ten
thousand for the place including tools
and stock. This thing knocks my
calculations end wise, for as this place
really belongs to Alice, l cannot mort
gage it. and if the sale is not COM

falls through"
ssYou intended taking Il deed of

s.Of course" he answered readily,
then had the grace to color as he
caught the twinkle in his uncle's eye.
"You have said nothing to Alice
about it?:"
"No, to tell the truth. 1 did not
consider that it "a any of her affairs.
l never looked at things just as 1 have

would dare assert her rights. In fact,

"She has dared, however. and l
honor her for 1T. Now, John, I'll
tell you what / will do. If you and
Alice will take a joint deed of the
Allston place, 1 will lend her the two
thousand required, and she can pay
me when convenient. But it must be
a joint deed, understand"
Alice was delighted with the ar
rangement. and though surprised at
finding such smooth sailing, felt duly
grateful to Johns uncle for his timely
aid, and found no future difficulty III
maintaining the stand she had taken.

sold to fair advantage. Ncatsfoot oil is
made from the feet and the hoofs are
ground and mixed with the other fcrtil-
izing substances. 1t is this advanta-
geous utilization of the refuse and osfal

strumental in the wonderful success of
he dressed beef trade in Chicago.
The processes of dressing and clean
ing the %carcasses of the cattle slaught-
cred for the dressed beef trade are most
interesting. After leaving the main
Strengthening house, from which place,
by the way, the visitor is glad to escape,
the carcasses are taken along the iron
runways into the immense refriger-
atols, where they cool off in Il tcmpera-
tlre of 36 degrees Fahrenheit. One is
impressed by the degree of cleanliness
maintained in the establishment after
passing from the blood-stained floors of
he butchering department. There is
not n speck OF dirt noticeable in the big
chilling-rooms, the floors of which are
covered with fresh, clean sawdust. In
addition to the lot number attached to
the carcass of each animal is a certifi-
cate of inspection placed there by ono
OF Uncle Jerry Rusk's inspectors, who
is stationed at the lifting door, through
which the bullock is admitted to the
Strengthening room, and who is q recent
adjunct to the packing houses, where
national as we'll as State inspection is
enforced.
The carcasses remain hanging in the
chilling-rooms from thirty-six to forty
eight hours, after which they are run
out to the loading platforms, cut into
quarters and put in the refrigerator cars
ready for transmission to Eastern
points. The cars are kept at the same
temperature as the cooling-rooms, and
are icedtwenty-four hours prior to using,
the process being repeated next MORN

the charge of a competent foreman can
load eight cars in an hour, or an aver

What chance has the old-style method

the dressed beef trade, built up on this
reversed order Of things, has made such
remarkable progress? It Is a division:
OF labor as we'll as q division Of prod

market at any and all seasons, and it
undoubtedly benefits the consumer In
all parts of the country, by giving him

could not obtain under the old system.

The dressed beef business can only
subsist. in a wholesale way at least. at
the great central markets Of the coun-
try. The system is to a great extent an
enlarged butchers business, as 1t is
supported by a host Of retailers, who,
instead OF being butchers on the old
style, have become merely meat cutters.
In San Francisco there are no butchers,
the city drawing its retail supplies of

If the school house is to be painted,
we would like to have an answer
from some of the scholars. The re-
markable covering property of the
Chiffon Paint is worthy of consider
ation-it is an item of economy not
to be overlooked. The Chiffon is a
."ready mixed" paint, and we know
that there is prejudice among many
against this kind of paints. They
think there is something lacking to
make them perfect paints. The
Chiffon is made with the purest and
best linseed oil, combined with tur-
pentine and turpentine drier, moth
ing wanting there. The hand and
eye may vary in the grinding and
mixing of paint, but the machinery
which they use never makes mis-
take. The Chiffon is better and
more economical paint than any that
can be mixed by hand in the old
way. Don't be behind the times
