The C.pta,p,s secret.

[Samuel MInturn In the Times Democrat.
There was bay upon his forehead,
There was glory In his name;
He had led the country's cohorts
Through the crimson field OF fame,
Yet from mis- breast at midnight,
When the throng had ceased to cheer,
He took q faded blossom
And Kissed IL with q tear.
A little faded violet,
4 bloom Of withsred hue;
But more than fame
or loud acclaim
He priced its faded blue.
We have all q hidden story
OF . day moro bright and dear;
We may hide Il with our laughter,
IT will haunt US with q tear.
And we've all some little keepsake
Where no eye can ever mark,
And, like the great commander,
We kiss Ii In the dark.
A little faded violet,
Perchance Q loop OF gold,
A gift Of love
We prize above
All that the earth can hold.

The Register reports that its counting
room was besisged by beautiful and ele-
CANT women yesterday who were drawn
thither by their desire to buy an ideal pic
ture of the Hon. Allan Ma1cy Hillsr. II
is probable that the Register is a. mistaken
in this notion as 1t was In the picture. The
truth probably is that the aforesaid women
read in their favorite paper, the JOURNAL
AND COURIER, that the picture was not
properly ideal and that they went to the
Register Office out of curiosity to see what
the picture was like or unlike. This being
so, the Register owes us something for
calling attention to Its wares.
The Register does not yet announce its
intention to fquarely turn its back on its
false ideals in art and give US a real like
ness of the First ward statesman, but 1t
does picture his moustache with an sp-
proach to fidelity. Its illustration can be
criticized, but We will not split hairs. 1t
does US good to see such an important part
of Brother Killers front elevation pretty
accurately pictured. The Register has
done we'll SO far. It should 60 farther and
print q real and complete likeness,
whiskers and all. Perhaps 1t will
by and by after 1t has printed
the parts. We hesitate to think that the
Register is msrcenary and that It expects
that crowds of women will flock to Its
counting room every day as long as it can
1aake pieces of Brother Hiller's face. We
and that after awhile 1t will succeed in
making q whole which will be as accurate
as the part which it presented yesterday.
We wish 1t entire success in Its striving If
It is 70 striving. This community needs
not only an accurate picture of Brother
Hiller's facial hair. Itneeds q correct rep
resentstion of his speaking eye, his classio
nose, his firm chin and his intellectual
brow. And it wants them all together,

What Hotel People Have 20 Say About IL

For o man to take a lady to dine at a
hotel and register as "Mr. So-and-so and
lady" is considered the height of igno-
rance by hotel clerks. The proper way is
to register both names, or, If the man is
sensitive, TO write "Mr. So-and-so and
one" This is sometimes done, but not
very often. To use land LADY, is bad
form in this generation, when 1t comes
TO hotel registers, for obvious reasons.
But this is not the only evidence of bad
form which is seen ON the register.
When a man pens Mr.. before his name
he is judged as being egotistical, and no
professional man will put DIR. or Prof.
before his name if no desires 10 avoid

Many city people exhibit their igno-

fore a mans name ON a hotel register is

looked upon as worse by all good hotel
men.
Tho only exception to tho aboye is in
case Of theatrical people, who put the
name Of their company after their
names. All professional stage people get

HOW They May Be KILLED by ~Pasteurizins

Tho simplest way to ~pasteurize milkis
to place it first in clean bottles. Then
put the bottles into a large kettle or
other metal receptacle. Pour cold water
into the kettle until the water reaches
the level Of tho milk in the bottles.
Now close tho mouth Of each bottle
with a plug Of clean white cotton fiber.
Heat tho kettle and contents to 100 de-
grees +. Then remove from the fire and
cover the whole affair snugly with o
wooden cloth to keep from cooling at
onco. Leave half an hour, then take out
the bottles and keep them in running
water or in any cool place, leaving them
still stopped with the plug of cotton.
The flexible wooden shoppers used
with some kinds Of patent glass jars
would answer in place of cotton, the
object being to exclude air, dust and
germs. Be careful not to heat above 1856
degrees, or the milk viii not taste quite
right. In practice il will he found .
good idea to make easier the circulation
Of the hot water by placing a wire
franc an inch or two in height in the
kettle beneath the bottles.
Milk carefully treated by the above
process may DO warranted free from

A popular fallacy tells MS that a

She docs not. She lays eight eggs on

the information obtained, say, in Leigh

six would closely resemble the hedge

those of a titierk, q wren or a linnet.

he seeks another cradle, knowing in a
