Among the decisions handed down

IN the court of appeals of Missouri is
one declaring that debt contracted in
an option deal can not be collected by
law. as such speculative dealing is gam
bling and illegal The points sustained
were that the debtor was not a bona
foe purchaser; was not prepared to re-
ceive and did not expect to receive the
actual grain, and that if in a contract
for future delivery the only purpose il
to speculate on the difference between
buying and sci ling prices, such q con-
tract is q wager, and therefore a1u
and void.

That neglected marvel, the muse
um of natural history in New York,
contains among other things some
remarkable specimens of taxidermy.
There are stuffed caterpillars as nat
ural as life, and stranger still there
are wax leaves that so nearly simulate
the defects produced by the sting of
insects that a naturalist knows at once
the name and character OF the sup
posititious insect that has thus left its
mark.

NIince Meat.

This recipe makes a mincemeat that
is plain but good. The lower part Of
the round of beef that has a little fat
and no bone is the best for pie-meat.
Take of this in the following proper
ton: One cupful of chopped meat, two
cupfuls chopped apples. one cupful of
brown sugar, one cupful raisins,
stoned; one cupful currants, one tea
spoonful each of salt, allspice, ginger,
cinnamon and ground cloves Moisten
with one-half cupful of molasses, one
cupful of sweet cider, juice and rind of
one lemon. Let this stand one day,
then taste and add whatever is needed
in the way of seasoning. If it is not
sufficiently sweet add more molasses,
if not moist enough add some of the
pot-liquor in which the meat was boil

An interesting discussion has sprung
up among the palmists in regard to the
line of the hand known as the marriage
line. One recognized authority says
that when this line curves upward the
possessor is not likely to marry at all.
Other experts reply that they, know
many married and happy people with
such a line. 1t is also alleged that the
transverse line on the bill of Mer-
curry which one party says is the mar
riage line, is not SO considered by the
Chirological society. "Our opinion" :"
says the editor Of the party organ, sis
that these lines are signs of attach
ment, and there is scarcely hand ever
seen without at least one in the hand
of either mar ried or unmarried people.

July can claim that title. although it
is a legal holiday in all the states.
The president issues 4 proclamation
calling upon the people to keep Thanks
