Preservation of lsutter.

When we consider how many hints have
been given during the many centuries
past for the preservation of fruits, 1t is
remarkable that the present enormous in
dustry in that line had not been invented
earlier. 1t shows the advantage of what
are called abstract studies. When by the
invention of the microscope it was found
that rot and decay were the result of the
action of small organisms, and that not
even these fungi could develop without at
mospheric air, it was the most natural
thing in the world that successful canning
of fruits should follow, yet the hint has
long ago been given in connection with
many things, and especially with the pres
ervation of butter.
The old Gardeners Monthly recorded
q number Of cases where butter had been
fished out of wells, where it had dropped
from vessels suspended over the water for
the sake OF the cold temperature. These
humps of butter, in many cases Il century
old, were found just as fresh and good as
the day they were churned. Kept from
the atmosphere, no parasitic fungus could
attack it. Recently butter has been found
at the bottom of bogs in the old world. 1t
is believed in some cases to be nearly q
Thousand years old, and yet entirely fresh
and good. These hints certainly are of
great value to the practical person. who
desires to see dollar and cent value in
every scientific idea.--Meehan's Monthly.

Jack Was q Woman.

Police inquiries in reference to the death
Of an odd character who was known in
Melbourne as Jack Jorgenson brought
forth the facts that the deceased's proper
name was Johanna Margherita Martin
.Jorgenson and that she had lived in the
Bendigo district for 20 years, wearing
male attire
At one time she became engaged to the
daughter Of one of the residents and OBJ
tained consent to tho marriage. Mrs.
Theresa Newman of South Melbourne, who
believes the deceased to be her sister, states
that she was 81 years Of age and II native
Of Berlin. 1t was 90 years since they part
ed, Mrs. Newman being much annoyed at
her sisters wearing mems clothes. The
reason for this conduct on the part of the
deceased was that no one would employ
her as domestic servant on account of a
facial distigurement.-Au Tx

he will occasionally sing on the ground, or
on tree top, or even when perched upon

It is perhaps unfair to translate his

Mr.. W. ]. Gordon, it has been expressed
in syllables thus cherry do, cherry do,
pretty joey, pretty joey, pretty joey, white
hat, whito hat, pretty joey" He declares
that an authority on birds-a Scotsman,
of course-likened it to the music of the
bagpipe-heard at distance.
Another Scotsman rendered the song in
these words: Sup in the lift (sky) go we,

The Moon Made of Butter.

All English speaking people refer to the
moon AS ''she" and the sun az she" In
Hindoo mythology, however, the " goddess
of night" is a male deity, supposed to be
the son of the patriarch Atri, IA young
man who was transferred to the realms Of
space because he was TOO good to associate
with other human beings. The Ma!uys,
Siamcse and several classes and castes of
the Chinese speak OF the moon as the great
milk curd or butter ball which arose from
the prncval sea Of milk when it was
churned by the gods to procure the much
priced beverage of Immortality"

Confederate Fiizhugh Lee upon regimen

The Southerners were in sore straits. sur

BILE to find an avenue of escape, just after
the battle of Gettysburg. Within their
lines was an orderly who had been raised al
ford surrounded by perpendicular cliff
near the Pennsylvania border. He told
the rebel General that if they could strike
that particular place there wonld be a fair
chance of escape, providing there were none
of the enemy near by. A accommodating
party returned with the report that the coast
was clear, but that the men would have To
pass through in single file. The Confede
rates prepared for the movement and were
soon on the march. As they reached the
ford they were astonished to see on the
cliffs above them the regiment of Union
soldiers with arms stacked and bayonet>
gllstening in the sunlight.

The rebels could scarcely realize that they

Senator Faulkner,s Good Work.

The good effect of Senator Faulkners
special efforts in behalf of the appropria-
tion for the improvement Of the Great Ka-
nawha was seen when the bill came into
the Senate from the Committee on Appro-
priations. All the items for river aud har-
Dor were badly cut down with the excep-
ton of two, those for Galveston harbor and
the Kanawha. The latter was left as il
passed the House half million dollars.
Some of the items were reduced fully one
half, while reductions of one-third and one
quarter were made in others. The fact that
the Great Kanawhs fared so well at the
hands of the Senate Committee was un-
doubtedly due to the strong report which
Senator Faulkner secured from Col. Craig
hill, showing that the work required the
expenditure of the full amount allowed by
the House the coming fiscal year Wheel

POETR r..

The following poem BY the late Lord Bea
consfeld occurs in Heaths Book of Beauty
for 1887. page 1856
TO MAIDEN SLEEPING AFTER HER FIRST BALL
By the author Of Vivian Gray"
Dreams come from Joye, the poet says.
But as | watch the smile
That on that lip now softly plays
/ can but deem the while
Venus may also send shade
To whisper to slumbering maid.
"What dark eyed youth now culls the flower
That radiant brow to grace,
Or whispers in the starry hour
Words fairer than thy face?
Or singles thee from out the throng
To thee 10 breathe his minstrel song.
'The ardent vow that ne'er can fail,
The sigh that Is not sad,
The glance that tells secret tale,
The spirit hushed, yet glad
These weave the dream that maidens prove,
The futtering dreams Of virgin love.
Sleep on sweet maid, nor sigh to break
The spell that binds thy brain.
Nor struggle from thy trance to wake
To lifes impending pain;
Who wakes to love, awake but knows
Love is dream without repose."
