HOW TO COOK MEATS.
A Plan by Which to Obtain the Best Gull
nary Results.

A Plan by Which to Obtain the Best Quill
nary Results.
Broiling, roasting and boiling are to-
day the commonest ways of dressing
meats for food.
The first lesson is necessarily the care
and management Of the stove.
One will boil corned beef in water at
ala, its maximum temperature, while
another whose observation has been Gull
tivated to study effects obtains better
results at $780, The former wastes part
Of the gelatin and albumen, while the
latter has learned that as albumen CO.
agulates at the lower temperature very
little waste occurs, and the meat is not
toughened.
On the same principle of action the
gas stove and the charcoal fire are so
perfectly controlled that the broiling Of
steaks, chops and sausages may be ac-
complished with tho least loss of fat
and the best results in the work
The frying pan requires perhaps more
skill than any other utensil of the kitch-
en-, since control of heat is everything.
For veal outlets, sweetbreads, calves
liver and any other delicate cooking the
proper degree of heat to cook through
the flesh and to give the right tint Of
color are of primary Importance. No
less important is it that heat be mod
crate in its action on the egg and bread
crumbs coating the outlets, since if the
temperature be too high our savory
dressing of the outlet will be tougher
ed and indigestible. The stew, hash
and meat pie call for quite as much, if
not more, Judgment and skill than the
other methods Of cooking
Slowing must be conducted slowly
and on the same general plan as boiling.
flashing meat is fine art.
Meat can never be twice cooked with
out injury to the article; hence the proc
ess of hashing should be warming
only. Perhaps the best way is strong
steaming until it is completely warmed
through. This completed, the hash may
be best treated with q piquant catchup
of mushroom or tomato and then be
quickly served

How Go Recognize and Drive Out tho Rus
sian Thistle.

3Ao" W Aeecoshize anu Drive Out tho hus-
sian Thistle.
The Russian thistle made its appear
ance in this country few years ago in
the wheat raising region of the north
west The damage already done by it is
estimated at several millions of dollars,
and the thistle is rapidly spreading over
new territory and being more destruc-
tive in the region already infested. 1t
is spread by the wind, by the transpor-
tation Of flaxseed and by the railroads.
The plant is an annual, easily killed
at any time during the growing season.
1t produces no seed before the middle of
August or 1st of September, and the
seed is short lived. 1t therefore offers
exceptionally good opportunities foS be-
ing checked or even exterminated. For
any effective measure, however, there
must be concerted action throughout all
the infested area Sheep are very fond
Of the Russian thistle. By pasturing on
the young plants they may be kept
down. All the remedies are directed to
destroy the plants before they produce
seed. The building of wire fences to
stop the rolling plants is remedy
strongly advocated by some. Under no
conditions whatever should the cheaper
grade of seeds be sown without reclean-

Peculiar to Itself.

Hoods Sarsaparilla is peculiar to itself in
a strictly medicinal sense, in three impor-
tant particulars, viz: first, in the combina'
ton of remedial agents used; second, in the
proportion in which they are mixed; third,
in the process by which the active curative
properties of the preparation are secured.
These three important points make Hoods
Sarsaparilla peculiar in its medicinal merit,
as it accomplshes cures hitherto unknown.

What Hit Him.

Many queer things happen in war
time. Sergeant Forbes Mitchell, of
the 93d Sutherland Highlanders, re-
lates what he calls "a rather laughnble
incident" which befell man of his
company named Johnnie Ross. 1t
was in India, at Lucknow, during the
great mutiny.
Before falling in for the assault on
the Regum's palace, Johnnie Ross and
George Fuller, with some others, had
been playing cards in sheltered cor
ner, and in some way quarrelled over
the game. They were still arguing
the point when the signal was given
TO fall in, and Puller told Ross to
"shut mp"
At that moment spent ball struck
Ross in the mouth and knocked out
four Of his teeth. Johnnie thought IL
wos Fuller who struck him, and at
once returned the blow.
"You fooll" said Puller. at
wasn't that struck you. You've got
a bullet in your mouth.
And no il was. Ross put his hand
to his lips and spat into it his four
teeth and bullet He Mt once apollo
gized TO Fuller for having struck him,
and added: "How shall / manage to
bite my cartridges the noo?"
Those were the days of muzzle-load-
ing cartridges, Mhich had TO be torn
open with the teeth when loading. -

The Real Monte Carlo.

At the tables where the wheel spins,
the play is usually for small stakes,
and the players are commonplace TO
the last degree. At the card tables
the game goes up many notches in
recklessness, and the gamesters several
pegs in appearance. 1t is at the card
tables that you look for your wicked
dukes and pallid heroes and your adj
venturesses of melodrama and ro-
nance. You will probably look in
vain. You also look for the clever
fellow who is "breaking the bank. ="
He is rare bird, seldom shot on the
wing. He is for the most part one of
the pleasing fictions of Monte Carlo.
IL is the dull season. if seasons are
ever dull here, that you read SO much
about the bank breakers. Neat little
paragraphs are then sent of to n subsi-
died press. The syndicate that man
ages Monte Carlo keeps sufficient
share of the continental press in it's
pocket. You can receive with liberal
discount most of the reports emanat-
ing from Monte Carlo concerning big
winnings. The men who rule this
wondrous town understand the weak
nesses of human nature, and this
knowledge is their most profitable
stock in trade.
The aspect of things is sordid, not
exciting. There is not face ut the
tables that looks if il had Joy in
life. Outwardly, Mt all events, the
players appear TO take both gains and
losses calmly enough. The faces are
for the most part expressionless while
the play is on they express neither
the pleasure of greed nor the excite
ment that comes of sport IL is all
cool calculation. If there is anything
here to tempt people, then people
must be cnsily tempted. You go
away after half an hour intolerably
bored. Correspondence Boston Her

The First Use Of Tea.

Bv whom or when the use OF tea for
drinking purposes was first discovered
is lost in antiquity. 1t is spoken of
as a famous herb in Chinese htera-
ture as far back as 1000 years B. c.,
at which time its cultivation and elias
sification was almost as thorough and
complete as it is today. One OF the
ancient legends says that its virtues
we're accidentally learned by King
Shen Nung She, the Chinese monarch
who is also known as "The Divine
Husbandman, whom the record says
fiourished 40 centuries ago. He was
engaged in boiling water over a fire
made of the branches os the tea plant,
and careIessly allowed some of the
leaves to fall into the pot. The liquid
which he expected TO come from the
vessel simply as sterilized water was
miraculously converted into an elixir
of the tea leaves. Soon after it be-
came highly esteemed in all the ORR
entail cities, and was used as a royal
gift from the Chinese monarch 10 the
potentates of southern and western
Asia.
This same King Shen Nung She not
only earned the title of respect by
which he was known through the dis
covery of the virtues of tea, but be-
cause of being the first 70 teach his
people how 10 make and use plows
and other implements of husbandry. -

A JUNGLE FIGHT.
A Bear and a Big Serpent Settle a
Quarrel.
Bruin Was Enveloped in the
Snakes Giant Folds.

How the denizens of East Indian
jungles settle their differences was
told in letter received in this city
recently from Madras. The writer.
who saw the fight, had accompanied
some Cheucus who were on hunt for
game, and had set number of traps
and nets. They were making the
rounds of the nets when their atten-
ton was attracted by succession of
hideous noises - roars of rage and
prolonged kissing, like the rush of
escaping steam. They hurried TO the
spot and saw huge jungle bear fight
ing for his life with an enormous SER
pent. The serpent had wound it's
giant folds around the bear, which
dashed itself from side to side, and
rolled over and over on the ground in
frenzied endeavorsto get free, roaring
and swapping its jaws like casanets at
the serpent's folds IL was unable TO
reach them, however, owing to the
way in which they were CONSTRUCTED
about its body.
In this way he struggled until they
reached the edge of the incline, down
which the bear threw himself with
speed which evidently Disconnected the
serpent, for it unwound couple of
folds and threw its tail around tree,
evidently with the intention of anchor
ing itself, and preventing the unpleas-
ant consequences of n rapid tumble
down hill. This appeared like admir-
able strategy, but il resulted in tho
serpent's undoing. The rigid line of
tail Strengthened out from the tree TO
the bears body gave the infuriated
beast chance to seize hold of its as
sailant. He promptly accepted the
chance, and with tremendous effort
turned and fastened his powerful jaws
in the snakes quiyering flesh.
The kissing was then appalling, rs
the writhing serpent rapidly unfolded
its huge body, and struck savagely ut
the clenched jaws of its enemy TO
make it loosen its hold on the mangled
mass of flesh. In response. the bear
with mufllcd roar, kept worrying the
mouthful of snake in its jaws in par
oxysmns of anguished rage. Once
more the serpent CONSTRUCTED it's folds,
the bear howled and gasped, and both
rolled, still struggling, out of view
into the high grass of the forest.
Their track was marked with pools
of blood, and when next seen they had
parted. The snake, evidently badly
hurt, was coiled in an attitude of de-
fence, with its head erect, and was
kissing angrily. 1t had plainly had
enough, and was more anxious to be
let alone than 10 renew the conflict.
Not so the bear. Though nenrly
crushed to death, with its tongue loll-
ing ont from its blood d-hecked, Elrm-
ing jaws, the aroused brute was fun of
fight. ..
After moments pause il rushed
upon the serpent. The latter was
weak from loss Of blood, aud the bear
got il by the head and dragged it
about with roars of triumph. The
underground around was beaten down
fiat by the convulsive strokes of the
great serpent's tail ns the bear crushed
its head to pieces, and at last it lay an
inert and lifeless mass beneath the as
saults Of the vindictive bear. New
