BROWN PAPER IN TUE KITCHEN.

1t is a very common practice for
cooks to use brown paper as an alb
sorbent for superhuous fat on crullers.
fritters, croquettes and the like, and
this custom has grown to be general
without any consideration of some OF
the possibilities that attend it.
An expert in the manufacture of
paper, upon seeing some of the COM
mon brown, unglazed stuff used for
this purpose, delivered a lecture that
his hearers are not likely ever to for
get. He showed them the serious
danger by detailing some of the
sources of supply and giving the par
ticulars of some of the processes of
manufacture.
The paper stock is gathered from
every refuse heap and roadside, any
where and everywhere, without regard
to its previous uses or its immediate
condition. The material is put into
tanks and goes through sort of wash
ing that removes the grosser impuri-
ties. At no stage of its preparation is
it any way disin:ected or made fit to
use.
GAS matter of fact" he said, 'the
practice of wrapping meats IN paper
of this sort is attended with the great
est risk. There is no telling whether
a piece of paper used in this way may
have been thrown from O sick room or
employed for purposes that would
render it utterly unfit for contact with
articles of food"
Regardless of this, freshly cut meats,
full of moisture, are wrapped in it,
and it is not an unusual thing for some
one to remark that he can taste the
paper after the steak has been cooked.
There ought to be a very strict san
itary law regulating the gathering of
waste and materials for paper-m making.
Every scrap of this staple should go
through degree of heat sufficient to
kill all known disease germs. This is
not impossible or even difficult. 1t
might entail some expense to the man
ufacturer, but this is a small item
compared with the results to human
ity. Above all things, brown paper as
an absorbent of hot fat is not only un-
wise from a hygienic point of view,
but positively disgusting. Old linen
is thousand times more desirable for
such purposes, and, in addition, has
advantages on the score of economy.
A woman who has for years used bits
of linen in this way, says that che has
made all of her hard toilet soap by
dropping the cloths into clear. strained
potash water. This cuts the grease
from the linen, and the liquid is
boiled, then put in an earthen vessel
until enough of it has accumulated;
then it is boiled down, and the result
is soap that is smooth, strictly hy-
gienic and more agreeable than almost
anything that can be purchased. 1t
is better to eat fat galore than to fill
the system with germs of the most
horrible diseases simply because there
is fad for utilizing brown paper as
sn absorbent. New York Ledger.

The North American Commercial
Company's schooner, @. q. White
will soon sail on sea-otter hunting
expedition to Alaska. She carries
twenty-five men, rifles and the usual
outfit of animal butchery in the north
western waters, also fonr engineers
for the steam launches which the COM
pany uses in preference to the slow
moving canoes of the Indian hunters
who are suppose to do the hunting
for the pelt OF the exceeding valuable
sea-o otter.
The revenue laws are most strin.
gent on the point that no white man
shall kill or capture this animal in the
waters of Bering Sea and along the
Alaskan coast, but the G. G.. White
has signed the prescribed hunters here,
who will receive $3.50 for every skin
they bring over the side of the
schooner. Moreover, they are pro-
vided with stock of new Winchester
rifles, the use of which will make the
vessel liable to seizure, as only clubs,
spears and shotguns are to be used by
the Indians, who alone are permitted
to hunt.
The sea-otter, like his brother the
seal, is fast disappearing from the
rocks, and coves of the northwestern
coast before the ceaseless and untiring
quest of the white hunters His valu-
able fur, which is worth from $500 to
$500, and sometimes twice as much to
the man who takes him in his native
waters, makes life a constant burden
and his fate from rifle bullet almost
inevitable.
Unlike the curiosity Flowing seal, who
will stick up his foolish black head
within boats length from his poach-
ing foe, the sea-otter can only be
caught by skillful and experienced
hunters. Stout steam launches and
far swifter Winchester rifle balls are
now taking the place of the crude ap-
pliances of the Indians
It is the intention of the Govern.
ment that the sea-otter should be left
to the Indians, that this helpless
people, often starving on their bleak
wintry islands, might receive some re-
muneratlon from the valuable pelt.
But the charitable design of the de-
partment will fail ofrealization. Hunt
ing vessels clearing for the Alaskan
coast make pretense of employing
native hunters and often carry two or
three Indians among the crew for the
edification of the revenue officers. So

PAPER Guns.

Paper guns have frequently been
suggested rs feasible, but have, until
now, existed only in theory. Paper
pulp, when compressed, is more elastic
than metal, and can be made practic-
ally as durable. Only the body of
the cannon of which l am speaking is
of paper, the core being of metal, and
the outside wound round with five lay
ers OF copper, brass, and steel wire,
and final covering of brass bands.
With gun of this kind the chances of
its bursting are considerably less than
they are with metal cannon, by
reason of the tendency it has to ex-
psnd when fred. Moreover, it COM

II the doors are OF heavy, old.fash-

looked to now and then, as the weight
OF the door often loosens the screws,
and the whole thing is thrown off the
balance, in which case, tightening the
screws will set it right unless worn
very loose, then it may be advisable to
insert longer screws. which will pene-
trate deeper into the woodwork. Locks
want an occasional inspection and q
touch of oil. II the door has shrunk

round the framework renders it quite

happy girl OF SIXTEEN was stricken with st.
vitus' dance. The leading physicians were
consulted, but without avail. She grew pale
and thin under the terrible nervous strain
and was fast losing her mental powers. In
fact the thought of placing her in an asylum
was seriously considered. Her case has been

"Yes, the reports of my daughter sickness

fiction grew into st. Vitus' dance from an
aggravated form of weakness and nervous
trouble peculiar to her sex. Every source Of
help was followed to the end, but it seemed
less Day by day she grew worse until we
despaired Of her life. At times she almost
went into convulsions. She got so that we
had to watch her to keep her from wander

was.
about this time, when our misery was
greatest and all hope had fled, I read of
another case, almost similar, that had been
cured by a medicine known as DIR. Williams

some of the pills and from that day on the
wonderful work of restoration commenced;

An Indian Song OF the Revolution.

of the Passamaquoddies, was recently
elected to the Maine branch of the
Society of the Sons of the American
Revolution. He is not only the de-
scendant of patriot, but one of the
few living sons of q revolutionary hero,
his father, Captain Selmore Soctomah,
having been one of band of fifty In
dians who captured an armed British
schooner in Passamaquoddy Bay dur
ing the Revolution and delivered her
to Colonel John Allen, the American
commander. He was also engaged in
scouting duty during both the Revo-
lutionary and 1912 wars. The great
grandfather of Captain Selmore was

ere at Norridgewock. ATLANTA Con-

was quite unique. The guests arrived
long before the dinner hour, for in
Korea an affair OF this kind lasts all
day, and were ushered into q pavilion
adjacent to the one in which the din
ner was to be served. Alter several
half hours had been whiled away in
smoking and in conversation, the din
ner was at last announced, and we
we're summoned into the other hall.
As soon as we had entered, the officials
began to divest themselves of some of

him in taking food. We took our
places at a large rectangular table.
which was heaped with food of all
kinds in brazen dishes of hemisphere
cal shape. For the first course we
had soup and sui, which is a kind of
wine, and for the second the walters
handed around some of the other
dishes which stood on the table. These
contained meats OF various kinds,
beef, pork and fried fish cut in thin
slices. At this juncture there entered
several Korean singing girls, clad in
the gaudiest costumes, and whose
business it was to make themselves
generally agreeable when at banquet,
for they constitute all the female So
ciety that there is in that country.
Their singing was not what an Ameri-
can would call good, nor was their
dancing, but their conversation and
presence certainly added zest to the
occasion.
'Long us it is, Korean banquet
eventually comes to an end, and this
one closed with decoction of pear

leisure, while the attendants lighted
