Various elegant preparations have
superseded the coarse unguents and
salves of former times It would be
impossible in our limited space to
give just idea of the wonderful i'm
provements that have been made in
this branch of pharmacy. Perhaps
one of the most notable improvements
A.. is the preparation of an animal fat,
called lanoline, which is now used as
the basis of large number of oint-
ments.
Unlike lard, which has generally
been employed for this purpose, it
never turns rancid; and it has the
valuable property of being readily
absorbed by the skin, and penetrating
with friction to its deeper layers; !;
therefore, it becomes most efficient
vehicle for conveying medicines
through the SKIN. When mixed with
mercury and rubbed into the pores, it
has caused the peculiar metallic taste
of the drug to be perceptible in the
mouth three minutes after its applica-
tion. In its impure crude form, this
fat was known to the ancient Greeks,
and employed by them IN medicine.

sheep. The chemist has now purified
it, and made it one of the most useful
agents that we possess for applying
medicines to the skin. Chambers's

Men and Women With Horns.

Horny excrescences arising from the
human head have not only occurred
in this country, but have been fre.
quently reported by English surgeons
as we'll as those from several parts of
continental Europe. In the Imperial
Museum at Vienna, the British Mu-
scum at London and the Vatican col
lection at Rome there are fine single
specimens or whole collections of these
curiosities In an English local his
tory History of Cheshire) a woman is
mentioned who had been afflicted with
tumor on her head for thirty-two
years. Finally it became greatly en-
larged and two horns grew out of it
after she was past seventy years old.
These wonderful horns, which are
each within fraction of eleven inches
long and nearly two inches across at
the base, are now in the famous Ions
dale collection in the British Museum.
In the annals of the French Academy
there is an account of one 'Pietro lie
Diblo," who had three fully developed
horns on his head; two as large as
those of good-sized ram, one
behind each ear, and one straight one,
nine and half inches long, growingi
from his forehead. st. Louis Repub-'

Theory OF American storms.

Professor Colbert explains the origin
of great storms that move across our
country from the Rocky Mountains to
the Atlantic seaboord ON this theory:
The moist air from the Pacific,

les by the rotation of the earth, lie
suddenly deprived of it's moisture in
cooler altitude. This drying of the
air causes a changein specific gravity,
and the disturbance produced at once
results in slight rotary current
The revolving mass of air moves on

size constantly increased by the suck.
ing In of warm south winds on its for.
ward edge. These currents from the
south drop their moisture from con.
tact with the colder revolving storm,
and the sudden tightening of the all
by the dropping of it's moisture works
like stream on mill wheel.
Thus the real cansA of onr great
storms lie in the conditions met by
these travelling whirlwinds in theil
regular journey across the country.
If they are cold enough and meet with
enough moist, hot air in their course

EXPERIMENTS IN KEEPING EGGS.

The New York experiment station
has been experimenting in keeping
eggs. The eggs were all wiped when
fresh, with a rag saturated with some
antiseptic and packed tightly in salt,
bran, eto. Eggs packed during April
and May with salt, and which had
been wiped out with cottonseed oil, to
which had been added boric acid, kept
from four to five months with loss
of nearly one.third, the quality of
those saved not being good. Those
packed in bran, after the same pre-
liminary handling, were all spoiled
after four months. Eggs packed in
salt during March and April, after
wiping with vaseline, to which salicy-
lie acid had been added, kept four or
five months without loss, the quality
after four months being much superior
to ordinary. Temperature of each
box varied little from sixty degrees
Fahrenheit, and each box was turned
over once every two days. Little diff
ference was observed in the keeping
of the fertile and unfertile eggs, and
no difference was noticeable in the
keeping qualities of eggs from different
fowls or from those on different rations

Aluminium Watches.

The latest fad of the Partisan swells
is the aluminium timepiece. They are
very light in weight, but trifie more
than the works. The cases are in a
dull black color-very effective. Some
are open faced, some are open in a
small three-quarter-inc disk in the
center, with small gilt hands on the
black face of the watch, but they are
in all sorts of inlaid decoration in
colorings, and the best of it is they
are very reasonable in price.
1t is the custom at the gay capital
for the gentry to carry this timepiece
in the right hand trousers pocket
along with the keys, coin, matchbox
and other paraphernalia of the mascu-
line pocket. 1t is, moreover, the wont
of the owners to rush the hand down
in the pocket with great show of un-
perturbability and bring forth the
watch, of which the material is I'M
scratchable, from among the other
articles, glance at the time and care
lessly replace it with an air of cer-
tainty in its infallibility. -Clothier

RECIPES.

Lobster Cutlets-Mince pound of
lobster small the canned may be
usedl, season with salt, white pepper,
two ounces of melted butter, two
beaten eggs and enough fine, sifted
breadcrumbs to make it cling togeth-
er. Shape in the form of outlets; dip
in crumbs, then in egg and again in
crumbs, and fry in hot drippings.
These are very palatable with green
peas or tomato sauce.
Chopped Omelet and Egg-Have
your round steak chopped very fine
and freed from skin and sinews; sea-
son with salt, cayenne and minced
parsley and onion "a teaspoonful of
each of the two latter to u pound of
steak), add the beaten yolk of an egg,
and make into small fiat cakes. Fry
in drippings until cooked through and
Drowned on both sides; pour over the
gravy, and crown each with poached
egg.
Potato Omelet-Tahe pint of cold
mashed potatoes and heat over the
fire with two tablespoonsful of sweet
cream, beating with a fork until
smooth and light. Add four beaten
eggs, pepper, salt and little nutmeg,
and press through sieve; beat one
tablespoonful of butter in saucepan
and cook half of this mixture like an
omelet. 1t is delightful with bacon
or ham cut in thin rashers and fried
crisp.
Spanish Ragout-Fry in butter a
minced Spanish onion or an equal
amount of white onions; add q green
pepper minced fine without the seeds,
and sprinkle these over six large to-
matoes that have been sliced and fried.
Put posched egg for each person on

pan in which the tomatoes were fried.
There is no more delightful hot wealth
or appetizer than this.
Shrimp Salad-Shrimp salad is a
useful and pretty dish. Shell suffi.
cient quantity of freshly broiled
prawns, taking care to preserve the
coral, which put aside for garnishing

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
WASHING AND CLEANING GLOVES.

The so-called washing gloves are nm
excellen, choice for utility purposes
all summer, as they can be cleaned
once and again by washing them in
water that is more than warm, but not
scalding hot, using bit of pure white
soap in the process. 1t is best to wash
them upon the hands, as the chamois
IS less likely to shrink in drying. Wash
and then rinse in clear water, and dry
by rubbing with Turkish or other
soft, rough towel. For kid gloves of
light color, that are but slightly
soiled, but not stained, there is no
better mode of freshening than to wind
a bit of oiled silk around the finger,
rubbing vigorously to remove all
traces of the mar. Any woman who
tests this easy way of cleaning kid
gloves will be sure to keep thereafter
a strip of silk in her possession. A
quarter or even an eighth of yard is
enough to purchase at once, as in
fancy dry goods houses, where it is
sold, it is kept moist in large roll
and is thus very pliable. Moisten the
silk, however, when using. New York

Sources of the Diamond Supply.

Until the early part of the eight
eenth century, the famous Golconda
and other mines of India furnished
the worlds diamonds, but after that
time for long period the mines of
Brazil became the great producers.
Both localities are now nearly ex-
hausted. Since the discovery of dia-
monds in South Africa in 1867, that
region has produced more diamonds
than the whole world during the two
centuries preceding, the total yield of
these mines being estimated at some
40, 900. 900 carats or about eight tons,
the aggregate value of the uncut
stones being more than $3.50, 900, 00C.
In single years the African yield has
exceeded 3,000, 900 carats. Not more
than eight per cent. of this product it
is stated can be considered of the first
water; about twelve per cent. is of
th" second water and twenty Ave per
cent. is OF tho third water, while the
remainder is boart which is crushed
to powder and used for cutting hard
substances. This boart is distinct from
the uncrystalline carbonado which is
cutting agent several times more
valuable as obtained from the Brazil
ian mines. Diamonds have been found
also in the Urals and in Australia
while few small crystals have been
picked up in different parts of the
United States. A locality in New
South Wales is reported to have yield
ed 10000 diamonds of which the
largest have been cut into gems,
weighing 81 and three carats respec-
lively. y.-Atlanta Constitution.

A NO.TO-BAC MIRACLE.
PHYSICAL PERFECTION PREVENTED
BY THE USE OF TOBACCO.
An Old Tim er of Twenty-three Years To-
buccO Chewing and Smoking Cured, and

Gu1ns twenty rounds IN thirty Days.
LAKE GENEVA, Wis, July 21-Special-
The ladies of our beautiful little town are
making an interesting and exciting time for
tobacco-using husbands, since the injurious
effects of tobacco and the ease with which
It can be cured bya preparation called No
To-Bac, have been 50 plainly demonstrated
by the cure of Mr.. F C. Waite. In written
statement he says 'I smoked and chewed
tobacco for twenty-three years, and I am
sure that my case was one Of the worst in
this part ofthe country. Even after 1 went
to bed at night, if l woke up l would want
to chew or smoke. 1t was not only killing
me but my wife was also ailing from the in
furious effects. Two boxes of No-To-Bac
cured me, and have no more desire for to-
bacco than have to jump out of the win
dow. have gained twenty pounds in thirty
days, my wife is well. and we are indeed
both happy to say that No-To-Bac is truly
worth its weight in gold to u.s."
The cure and improvement in Mr.. Waite's
case is looked upon as amiracle-in fact, 1t
is the talk of the town and county, and 1t is
estimated that over a thousand tobacco
users will be using No-To-Bac within a few
weeks The popularity about No-To-Bac as
patent medicine is that the makers, the
Sterling Remedy Company, No. As Randolph
street, Chicago, absolutely guarantee the
use of three boxes TO cure or refund the
money, and the cost. so, is so trifiing as
compared with the expensive and unneces-
sary use of tobacco that tobacco using hus-
l. h.,
their wives insist upon taking No-To-Bac
and getting results in the way OF pure, sweet
breath, wonderful improvement In their
mental and physical condition, with prac-
tical revitalization of their nicotized nerves.

APRONS.

Much may be said of the indispens-
able article known as apron, viewing
it from the ornamental as we'll as use
full point. The scope of the latter is
great, including the housekeeper,
nurse, waitress, dressmaker and the
clerk, the various styles of each being
unique and pretty.
The ehousekeeper's apron is generally
of lawn, naInsook or dimity, of two
thirds length and trimmed with hem
four inches deep, surmounted by
tucks. Feather stitching may be
added either in fax or cotton, or the
ready-made may be bought by the
piece of twelve yards. The belt may
be feather stitched. A square pocket
laid in a double box-plait ON the right
side is indispensable, and may be
finished by dainty little bow of the
same material.
aprons are usually of lawn or cambria,
and the palmer the better. Both aie
sufficiently full to almost meet at the
back, and in length reach nearly to
the bottom of the skirt. Sometimes
embroidery is put between the tucks
that surmount the hem.
Striped and checked g1nghams are
relegated to the kitchen. These are
made up in two breadths, simply
hemmed and with belt and string of
the goods. Those trimmed with a
bias band of the goods are little
more ornamental. Aprons of this
sort are excellent for wear when sew
ing. The sewing apron proper has a
gored front and side pieces in one
piece style, the latter meeting at the
back after forming curve below the
waist line. and fastening with one
button. The waist or bib is fitted
with two darts and the gored side
seam, with two long tabs passing to
the back of the neck, where they but

That, of all known agents to accomplish
this purpose, DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
are unequalled, is proven by the fact that
once used, they are always in favor. Their
secondary effect is to keep the bowels open

THE MILK TEST.

Tn practice it is found that the Bah
cock test must be expanded in applica-
tion so as to cover five things: The
apparatus, the acid, the sample the
manipulation, the operator. These
five things include everything pertain
ing to the test as machine, the test
rs an operation, and the tester. Iowa
leads her sister States in enacting q
law requiring those who buy milk by
the test to make sure that the test bot
ties are correctly calibrated and grad
uated. AS the invention is not patent
ed anyone can make the apparatus,
and the test bottles have been thrown
upon the market with no guarantee
that they are correct. Patrons have
been condemned for selling inferior
milk with no evidence against them but
the test bottle and no guarantee that
the test bottle itself was correct
The new law makes it imperative
that each creameryman and all persons
testing milk for others, shall procure
of the Dairy Commissioner certified
test bottle and the Dairy Commissioner
is required to furnish one bottle GER
titled to be correct, at cost price. In
case of controversy, the one who makes
the test has the burden of proof He
must prove his test to be correct, and
cannot secure conviction otherwise.
This is right. Before this it was 8
one sided affair. One party did all the
testing; the other was helpless unless
he could prove fraud. Now the per
son making the charge must support
it with evidence and if the evidence is
the milk test he must substantiate the
accuracy of his test. Orange JUDD
