The Man In tho Moon.

According to Pratorius, the man IN
the moon is the Patriarch Isaac, carry
Ing the bundle of sticks which were tc
be lighted to sacrifice his own body on
the mountain top. Dante believes him
to be Cain, carrying bundle of thorns,
the meanest offering his lands afforded,
as a present to God. In Iceland the peo-
pie claim that they can see the face of
Adam in the moon and that of Eve il
the sun. Among the Frieburgers there
is a superstition which says that the
MARKS and spots on the moons face are
the outlines of the traitor, Judas Iscar-
lot, holding his hand over his face while
sneezing just prior to hanging himself.
This last belief accords with the old
Frankish legend, which says that there
was no spot on Luna's bright face until
after the time of the crucifixion of
Christ. Still another story tells us that
in the time of the creation God threw
an offending angel against the face of
the moon, while another is to the effect
that the moon witnessed the creation of
Adam and Eve and took an impress of
their features on his surface, intending
to people his own land with similar be-
ings. When he essayed to initiate God g
works, he made nothing but Shiny SER
pent, which since that day has contin-
ued to fold and unfold its mighty coils
in full view of the descendants of the
God created beings. st. Louis Repub-

A Remarkable Diary.
A man who died in Berlin, Rensselaer,
county, at the age of 70 left a record
which he began when Is years old and
continued for 81 years. The book, filed

these So years the man had smoked 62S,
715 cigars, of which he received 43, 629
as presents, while for the remaining
$50, 0S6 he paid about $40, ABB. In 81
years, according to his bookkeeping, he
had drunk 90, glasses of beer and

When n Girl Visits.

When you are packing your trunk t1y
and put in it everything that you will
need so that you will not have to DOR
row from your hostess, writes Ruth
Ashmore in a timely article on '1he
Girl Who Goes a-Visiting," in the La
dies Home Journal. You will require
the silk or. cotton matching your gowns,
your needles, scissors and thimble, and
if you are an adept at artistic needle
work would suggest your doing pref
ty piece while you are away-one that
may be left as a souvenir of your visit
with your hostess. You must have with.
you your own brushes, your letter pa
per and pens, and when you open your
trunk you must put your things ill.,
their proper places, giving them the
same care which you would if you:
were going to be in the house a year
instead of a week. Besides your clothes
there must be some virtues packed in
your trunk, virtues that you will take
out and use all the time. One is con-
sideration. You will find that visitor
well equipped with this will be much:
liked. Another is punctuality, that viz
tue Of kings. And still another is neat
ness, a dainty little virtue especially
adapted to young women.

appliances provided should be of such

is nothing equal to pulley weights or
chest-weights. A pair of light dumb
bells, weighing from one to three
pounds, and a single one, weighing
from six to twelve pounds, are also de-
sirable for wrist, arm and back exer-
sises. Wooden dumb-bells nowadays
are preferred to iron ones, because the
latter chill the blood. To the chest

WOman's Greatest Enemy.

When a woman is troubled with head
aches the cause should be discovered,
if possible, the overwork stopped, the
mental anxiety or distress removed,
the errors of diet corrected, or the late
hours exchanged for early ones, writes
Elisabeth r. Scoville in the Ladies'
Home Journal. Then simple laxative
may be needed to prepare the system
to benefit by tonic; cod liver oil, iron,
gentian, quassia, or whatever the doc
tor recommends as best suited to the
particular case. The diet should be
abundant and nourishing, avoiding
rich, made dishes, pastry or anything
liable to disorder the digestion. Exer-

How to Build a Creamery.

We are asked advice about farmers
building creamery on the joint stock
plan. One thing to guard against is
the subtle words and sweet blandish-
ments Of the creamery shark, who will
want to put up and equip the creamery
and sell it all in running order.
Mr.. O. G. Gregg, superintendent of
the Minnesota State Farmers Insti
tute, has an illustrated. article in the
last Farmers Institute Annual that
contains some good words of caution
for any farmer or association Of farm
ers intending embarking in the cream
cry business.
Mr.. Gregg says: when DESTROYS of
having a creamery in your neighbor-
hood, the proper way to do is to organ
lie yourselves into a stock company,

Around the Farm.

Poultry manure is a good fertilizer
for strawberries.
Young trees are frequently injured
by allowing to bear too heavily.
It has not yet been demonstrated that
red raspberries can be evaporated prof
itably.
1t is much easier and more pleasant
to keep fowls from getting sick than to
cure them when once ailing.
No butter maker should let it be said
Of his product that it is inferior to but
terine.
The value Of COW depends as much
upon the quality Of her milk as the
quantity.
Dairymen are pretty generally agreed
that the way to have good COWS is to
raise them.

Do not give up a fairly good thing
without strong promise Of getting
something better.
People are learning as never before
that it pays best to aim high in what
ever they are to do.
Apparently slight neglect may pre-
vent success, and waste all the labor
which has been bestowed.
1t is by no means the amount of soil
titled that measures the financial re-
turn or the priceless sense of gratifica-
ton.
Idleness and shiftlessness are con-
temptible; but there is such a thing as
carrying labor too far, to the detriment
of body and mind.
A creamery man at a farm Institute
said that to hasten the ripening Of
cream starter must be used, and that
he had found the best method was to
use skim-milk for this purpose.
No matter how much money expert
enced growers may, make on berries,
the novice should begin on a compare
lively small scale, and extend his op-
erations as he gains experience.
One reason that creamery butter sells
better than dairy is because Of its uni

Every additional passenger thus Sc

1t is matter of common knowledge
that the profits of all the street rail-
road companies Of New York are enor-
nous, and I'm almost every instance
their stock is so valuable that it seldom
comes into the market. The rate OF
these profits is increasing every year
with the rapid growth of the city's
population and the increasing demand
for travelling accommodations.
An evidence OF this is the organize
tion Of big syndicates OF capitalists. which
have sprung into existence during the
last few years, and which now have al
most exclusive control OF the street rail-
way business, not only in New York but
in the other great cities OF the country.

why 1t Is that the people OF this city
are not receiving the accommodation
to which they are entitled from those to

at least in some degree, with the dis
graceful overcrowding OF the public

the present laws do not give sufficient
