Artificial Maple Sugar.

Decoctions or extracts of the wood OF
bark of trees are frequently used for
havoring sirups or sugars. Different
extracts differ in taste. The hickory
tree, it is said, yields an extract that will
impart the flavor of the maple, and
Daily's method of producing artificial
maple strip Of sugar is as follows:
Make an extract of hickory bark or
wood by allowing water to percolate
through the same. The bark or wood
may be ground, or sawdust therefrom
used. Hot water may be used, or the
material boiled in water. The strength
of the extract may be increased by in
crease of the quantity of the wood or
bark. To one gallon of hot or boiling
sugar strip add, say, three tablespoon
fuls of the hickory extract. 1t is said
the effect of the extract is to produce a
flavor that renders the sirup indistin-
guishable from genuine maple sugar. If
the strip is boiled down, sugar re-
sembling maple sugar in taste is pro-
duced.-London Public Opinion.

A Childless Home

Smith and his wife have every lux
ury that money can buy, but there is
one thing lacking to their happiness.
Both are fond of children, but no little
voices prattle, no little feet patter in
their beautiful home. 81 would give
ten years of my life if coul'i have one
healthy, living child of my own"
Smith often says to himself. No
woman can be the mother of healthy
offspring unless she is herself in good
health. If she suffers from female
weakness, general debility, bearing
down pains and functional derange-
ments her physical condition is
such that she cannot hope to
have healthy children. DIR.

Demoralizing the Busy Bee.

As the magpie is notorious for stealing
glittering objects, so we find the parallel
among savages who have been known to
help themselves on shipboard to all the
movables, being fascinated " mirrors,
cutlery and jewelry. Sometimes bees,
in order to save trouble, attack in
crowds well furnished hives and carry
off the provisions; they gradually ac-
quire taste for this and form compa-
mics and colonies of brigands. If bees
are given mixture of honey and brandy,
they can acquire taste for it and be-
come irritable under its influence, drink
and cease to work, and like men fall
from one vice into another.-Current

perpetnatIen of Physical pefeets.

Diseases Of malnutrition, such as govt,
scrofula, cancer and tuberculosis, re-
quire several generations for their full
evolution, and this evolution may be re-
tarded or even wholly arrested by inter
marriage with healthy persons of an
other nonrelated family. Acquired con-
stitutional taints and abnormal habits,
as alcoholism, kleptomania, when once
firmly rooted in an individual organism
tend to propagate themselves like fam
lily features and become hereditary for
several generations, even when the origi-
nal factors have ceased to act. Thus
the acquired habit Of the father may be-
come a natural feature in his son or
daughter, just as the puppies Of well
trained pointer or setter require but very
little training to point" or set"
Deformities, superAuous digits or toes
and malformations in general may be
caused by accident to the mother, by
powerful mental impressions arresting
or altering the development of the un-
born child, and the child born with any
of these defects may become the parent
or grandparent of an infant having an
exactly similar abnormality.-Homeo-
pathic Review

Professor Donders of Utrecht has made
some interesting experiments in regard
to the rapidity of thought. By means
of two instruments. which he calls the
acknowledgement" and the "noerna-
tachometer," he obtained some impor-
tant results. His experiments show that
1t takes the brain .067 of a second to
elaborate single idea. Writing in re-
gard TO this Professor Donders says:
DOUBTLESS the time required for the
brain to act is not the same in all indi-
viduals. believe, however, that my
instruments may be perfected until we
will be able to determine the mental
caliber of our friends without our friends
knowing that We are testing their apt
ness" The professor further says: For
the eye to receive IN impression requires
OF of a second. and for the ear TO appre-
ciate a sound .O49 of a second is neces-
sary. These curious experiments have
established one fact at least-viz, that
the eye acts with nearly double the
rapidity of the ear. Philadelphia Press.

Poverty and Clothes.

One marked difference between the
very poor in the English cities and the
corresponding class in American towns
is that the latter buy their clothing of
tailors and manufacturers, and therefore
get it new, while the English poor, and
particularly the English women of low
estate, prefer the castoff finery of "the
quality" that is sold at the secondhand
shops. The result is that the American
laborer and his wife make better ap-
pearsnce in their cheap but simple and
suitable garments than the London nav
Wy or hawker, with a shiny, i'll fitting
broadcloth, and his wife in a garish hat
with broken feathers and questionable,
not to say bedraggled, skirts.-New York

Thackeray In Conversation.

Mr.. Sala says that when Thackeray
was not in ga tetchy temper caused by
extreme physical anguish" he was one
of the most delightful takers it is posi-
BILE to imagine. There were very few
subjects indeed on which he could not
talk and talk admirably. He was as
proficient in the French and in the Ger
man as in the English language. He
was never tired of discoursing about
books and bookmen, about pictures and
painters, about etchers and engravers
and photographers, and, moreover, he was
a born wit and a polished epigrammat-
ist. "-New York Tribune.

A youthful correspondent writes as
follows: "The reason why elephants is
so smart is because they is like women.
Elephants is afraid of mices, and so is
women. Women is smarter than men,
and as elephants is like women, some
elephants must be smarter than some
men," Such logic cannot be overcome.

SEVERAL GAMBLING CASES.

Some Cinnamon Forfeit Collateral and
Others Are Dismissed.
This morning about 8 o'clock Policemen
Hartigan aud Elliott surprised seven Cinnamon
who were ENJOYING game of 'fsn-tan' in a
room in rear of Hing Lees laundry, No. 3l3
Pennsylvania avenue. The attention of
the officers was attracted to the place
by hearing loud talking and finding
the front door locked they went around the
back way and entered. Their appearance was
the cause OF a stampede and the alleged gam
bling paraphernalis scattered in all drec-
tons.
Hing Lee was placed under arrest and the
officers took possession of the paraphernalia,
which included ordinary crap "bones. such as
are used by the corner bootblacks, some Chi
nese coins and buttons.
Two hours previous to this raid Seret Bvrnes
and several officers had made a raid in a place
on A. street. where Sam Wah Gee and Moy
Wah were arrested and released on S25 collat-
eral each, which was forfeited in the Police
Court this morning.
Hing Lee appeared in court for trial and his
counsel plead not guilty.
Judge Miller heard the officers description
Of the raid, but as the officers were unable to
tell that they were playing "fan-tan" for money
or not the court could not hold the defendant.
There had been New Year party at the
house. said LAWYER Hensey, land several of the
boys who remained too late for the street cars
were engaged in a friendly game when the off,
GERS appeared"
Judge Miller referred to former prosecutions
of Cinnamon in which they were charged with
keeping disorderly houses. The judge told the
officers that if there were any boisterous DEM
onstrstions there they could proceed against
them in the way mentioned.
The charge against Hing dismissed.
In another gambling case Henry Williams and
James Howard, Colored were defendants. They
occupied house on street southwest, where
1t is charged various games of chance were
played. In the front room there was "A
pigs feet and soda water store. Policeman
Romeo Bowie made raid there Saturday night
and tine crowd Of gamblers in attempting to get
away carried out window sash and broke down
doors. The officers took possession of a guam
tity of whisky and other liquors and escorted
the entire party to the station.
The men were held for trial in Judge Miller's
court today on a charge of gambling. and a
charge of selling liquor without a license
against Williams will be heard later in the
week.
