Parboiling.

There are various and sundry whims
about cooking but none of them are
more absurd than the idea that beans
must be parboiled. One would hardly
think of turning off the water from
meat while it is cooking, but it might
just as we'll be done, as in either case it
takes away a great portion of the
nutriment and flavor of the dish.
Beans should be carefully looked over,
thoroughly washed, and put to soak
overnight in about twice their bulk
water Put them in the kettle 500
after breakfast the next morning, add
about as much water as at first, place
them where they will not burn, and let
them cook slowly and without stirring
until about 10 o'clock. Then add hall
pound of salt pork, thoroughly washed
and cut across the rind in small dice
Place the pork on the top of the beans,
and let it boil for an hour or more.
Then lift the meat out, turn the beans
and liquor into a baking-pan, press the
pork down until only the rind is out OF
the water, and bake in slow oven for
several hours. Many persons complain
that beans are indigestible and cause
dyspepsia 1t is said by eminent au.
thorities that if beans are cooked for
six to eight hours, no complaint of this
sort can be made against them.-N. Y.

lie Obtained Over IA Million aud n Hall
without Any Security.
"The man who can start in life on
nothing and borrow a million and
half without security is a beauty"
said a st. Louis man. yet know q
man that did that identical thing. In
fact, he was an uncle of NINE my
mothers brother-in-law. He was a
German and lived all his life in Berlin.
He was very suave, smooth gentleman,
knew everybody worth knowing, hob
nobbed with the mobiles of Emperor
Williams court and loved to live. He
was engaged in living; that was his en-
tire occupation in life, and yet he was
one of the greatest artists in Europe.
Whenever he thought himself on the
wane among those who looked upon
him as an idol he painted picture, put
it on exhibition, had all Europe talking
about it, and then did nothing for
couple of years Some years ago tha
art fever broke out in most malignant
form among the wealthier Germans of
Cincinnati They meant to have the
best of modern painters do n lot of
work for them. My distinguished rela-
them and he was invited to Cincinnati.
He came over and for couple of
months he was q lion. He was feted
and entertained most royalty. He sub
mitted some ideas for painting and
the people who brought him over went
crazy over his plans. Finally he in
duced them to advance him seventy
five thousand dollars on the work and
he returned to Germany to do his paint
ing. He died about a year after, and
when the Cincinnatians started to look
up the paintings they found nothing
but the original sketches. He hadn't
touched them since the day he first sub
mitted them in Cincinnati That started
an investigation, and it was found that
he had borrowed in the course of his
career something over one million five
hundred thousand dollars He hadn't
dollars worth of security and had
simply devoted his time aud talents to
the pursuit of living"

A PENlTENTlARY FIRE.

The Prison South, at JeiTersonville, Ind,
Damaged to the Extent of $4,000,
JEFFERSoNvILLE, Ind, March "a
Fire started in the saddle-tree shop of
the Indiana state prison south, at II
o'clock Thursday morning, and for a
time the entire prison was in imminent
danger of destruction. The origin of
the fire was an overheated furnace. 1t
was some time before it was discovered,
and owing to the delay the flames
gained much headway. They soon
spread to the new coalhouse in the
southern end of the building. The
structure is OF brick, stone and iron,
but so intense was the heat that the
interior caught fire within half an
hour.
1t was then deemed necessary to send
to Louisville for assistance and two en-
gines were sent over. There were over
six hundred convicts in the prison and
the excitement was intense Instead OF
making an effort to escape the convicts
did what they could to quench the
flames, and by o'clock the fire was un-
der control. The two dining rooms used
by the convicts and also the kitchen,
where dinner was being prepared, were
destroyed. The saddle-tree shop was
consumed. 1t was operated by The
Clagget Saddle-tree Co., of Louisville.
They estimated their loss at $40, 900, on
which there is an insurance of S25, 0Oo
The loss by fire and water to the state
of Indiana, as near as can be estimated,
will be $4,000, which is fully covered

Every boy who has indulged the nat

pursue shy birds and pry into the Sc

there are birds of the fields and birds of

soon learns that certain groups or fam
