CIrApTER XII.

1t gave additional Zcst to the beau
tiful widows pursuit of Alan when she
saw the first look of pain on Hya-
cinth's face. To win the love which did
not belong to her was one triumph; to
find that she made a girl younger than
herself jealous was another, and ver
SO much mor enjoyable.
Hyacinth uttered no word Of reproach
to her lover; with her keen woman's
instinct she perceived that he was not
one who would like q woman's re-
proaches and tears. He told her how
annoyed he was to find that Lady
Fraser was his companion instead of
herself. She asked him If he enjoyed
his ride, and he laughed heartily as he
answered. Yes" He repeated some Of
Lady Fraser's wirticst speeches, as
though they had amused him very
much.
LADY Fraser is very witty" said the
young girl; and he did not see the
wistful expression in the eyes that he
had likcned to ~corntlowers grown un-
der the ardor of tho French sky.
He thought her very silent. After a
time she laid her soft hand on his.
Il wish that l were witty, Alan" she
said.

"Not so witty as Lady Fraser" she
said.
Il should not wish You to he witty

Is what we call chic: you are original
and poetlcaf. which is far better"
Are you sure it is bettcr:' she asked.
Yes; there is no doubt about it," he
answered; and the words pleased her.
But the same morning, in her coquet-
fish way, Lady Fraser caused a little
scene about a spray Of apple blossoms

Ter eyes brilliant as the sunshine itself,
he spray in her hands.

She held it so that all might see the

1t Is a settled fact that there a-e ami
mails that possess the quality Of n more
perfect assimilation Of food for the pro-
duction Of milk than others, and 1t Is
not unreasonable to suppose that GER
tain breeds possess this quality to q
greater degree than others.
Under what may be termed Nv ,rage
conditions an animal Is Of little or no
use to the owner unless he Is able to de-
rive a profit by keeping it. In The dairy
a good animal Is the one that will pro-
fitably convert feed into milk, butter or
cheese. In this, quantity is not the only
consideration, neither is quality. Both
are important, but the cost is rather
more important than all else. There
mIst be a liberal quantity and the quail
ity must be good. At the same time,
both must be secured at Il cost that
will leave a fair per cent of profit IL
rightly managed. And there Is more
certainty of doing this with certain
breeds than with others. There may be
individual animals in all breeds that ex-
Gel In some essentials, as there are 9th.
ers that fail almost as regularly. Yet,
generally, there are breeds that as a
class can be depended upon to convert
their excess Of food. the amount over
and above what is necessary to sustain
animal life, to milk and cream, and this
characteristic is in the bread to an ex-
tent that 1t can be depended upon to
transmit this quality from parent to on

steriltsine Milk.

Sterilising Milk.
At the request of the secretary Of
agriculture. the chief of the bureau
Of animal industry has furnished the
following simple directions for the ster-
nization of milk:
The sterilization of milk for children,
now quite extensively practiced in or
der to destroy the injurious germs
which 1t may contain. can be satisfac-
torily accomplished with very simple ap
Daratus. The vessel containing the
milk, which may be the bottle from
which 1t Is to be used, or any other suit
able vessel, is placed inside of Il larger
vessel OF metal. which contains the wa.
ter. If a bottle, it is plugged with alb.
sorbent cotton. If this is ut hand. Or
in its absence other clean cotton will
answer. A small fruit lar, loosely Gov.
cred. may be used instead of a bottle.
The requirements are simply that the
interior vessel shall be raised about
half an inch above the bottom of the
other. and that the water shall reach
nearly Or quite as high as the milk.
The apparatus is then heated on a range
or stove until the water reaches a TEN.
perature Of 1855 deg. Fahrenheit, when
1t is removed from the heat and kept
tightly covered for half an hour. The
milk bottles are then taken out and
kept in Il cool place. The milk NAV be
used any time within twcnty-four
hours. A temperature of $50 deg
maintained for half an hour is sufficient
to destroy any germ likely to be pres
ent IN the milk, and it is found in prac-
tice that raising the temperature to
1855 deg. and then allowing it to stand
In the heated water for half an hour
insures the proper temperature for
the required time. The temperature
should not be raised above 1876 deg.
otherwise the taste and quality of the
milk will be impaired.
The simplest plan is to take a tin
pail and invert q perforated tin pie.
plate In the bottom. or have made for
1t q removable false bottom Derforat-
ed with holes and having legs half an
inch high. to allow circulation Of the
water. The milk bottle is set OH this
false bottom. and sufficient water IL nut
into the pail to reach the level of tho
surface of the milk in the bottle. A
hole may be punched in the cover Of
the pail, a cork inserted and a chemical
thermometer put through. the cork, so
the bulb dips into the water. The
temperature cal thus be watched with
out removing the cover. II preferred,
an ordinary dairy thermometer may be
used and the temperature tested from
time to time by removing the lid. This
Is very easily arranged. and is just as
satisfactory as the patented apparatus
sold for the same purpose. The accom-
panying illustrations show the form
Of apparatus described.

Typhoid Not Epidemic in Crookston.
Crookston, MIMI, Feb. 13.-A number
OF outside papers make mention Of the
large number of cases of typhoid fever
in this city, some going as far as to say
that it is very near as bad as ut Grand
Forks. This is all wrong. That typhoid
fever of a mild form exists in this city
is not denied, the number of cases being
small, and but six deaths, the origin Of
which are traced to the use of river
