About Keening Shoes.

have before me q pair of shoes !;
one, save for the shape of the foot
having destroyed the stiff outlines of
newness, looking as if it might have
just left the store; the other shoe
looks as if even tramp might paes it
by with contempt, Yet they are
mates.
One has been cleaned, the other has
not, is all the difference; yet neither
has ever been "blacked;" )" the shoes
have never been worn with rubbers,
yet when cleaned the leather is soft
and pliable as one could wish; yet
with all the spick and spanness they
are half worn out. How is it done?
Have three small, clean cloths,
basin of water, bottle OF cosmoline,
vaseline, petroleum jelly, or whatever
namo you like to cali it, it is all the
same, and q clean shoe polishing or
eioth brush.
The shoes should be wiped as free
of mud as possible before drying and
should be hung III warm current of
air, say two or three feet above reg.
lister or stove-pipe, not underneath
the kitchen range, where they will be
scorched on top and wet underneath.
When they are perfectly dry wipe
the mud stains OF with damp cloth,
be sure to get them all off; then rdb
hard with a dry cloth, then polish
with the brush, being careful about
the stitching and around the sole. 1t
is best to do only part at time, say
first the vamp, one side, then the
other, not forgetting the heel.
Unless your shoes have been badly
scuffod and rotted by bad shoe dress,
ing they will look almost like new.
Now rub cosmoline over them with a
clean cloth and rub it well in; use it
liberally, for too little will only de.
stroy the polish, while plenty of COS.
moline improves it. The whole shoe
should be carefully done, even among
lhe buttons and buttouholes, and
presto, your shoes are soft and pliable,
black, aud just polished enough to
look we'll will not stain your under
clothes or fingers when putting them
on, and little water will do them no
harm.
Try it once, and you will never
want to do it any other ay.-Phila.

Bad Drinking Water.

Too much stress cannot be put upon
the necessity of pure drinking water.
Not only is it important for villages
and cities, but too often the location
of the we'll on farm has been a mat
ter of indifference. Either from care
lessness or ignorance it has been made
where it will take surface drainage or
from some underground fissure re.
ceive water from the barn or, worse
yet, seepage from the kitchen slops or
other house drainage.
The following sad experience affords
warning: Mishawaka, little viii
lage near South Bend, Ind, had been
visited annually by contagious disease
causing many deaths. Three months
ago an epidemic of diphtheria broke
out, which quickly spread over the
entire village, and caused number of
deaths. Workmen engaged on IN
electric plant were obliged to shut of
the water yesterday and drain the
reservoir from which the water mains
of Mishawaka are supplied. The bed
of the pit was found covered with
dead fish, snakes, cells, cats, dogs, and
other animals. The workmen who at.
tempted to clean the pit were over.
come.
All of the water used in Mishawaka
was drawn through this mass of de.
caying animal matter. Farm, Field

Discovery About Filters.

1t is we'll known that the thickness
of the layer of fine sand in filtering
beds cannot be reduced beyond GER
tain point without endaugering the
quality Of the water that filters
through. DR. Kurth, OF Bremen. has
found IN examining water filtered
through II layer not sufli ciently thick
that the number of bacteria was great.
ly increased, owing to the presence OF
u special microbe that could not bo
found in the water before it entered
the filter. These microbes must,
therefore, have existed in the filter
ing material and have been developed
by the passage of water through it. go

The Committee for the Study of
Glaciers, which was appointed at the
meeting of the International Congress
of Biologists of Zurich, has recently
made some interesting discoveries.
The glaciers of New Zealand have been
carefully explored and mapped out.
1t has been found that the rate of
movement of the New Zealand glaciers
averages 1912 inches per diem. From
observations in the valleys containing
large glaciers it is concluded that the
ice has passed at four different levels
in its descent.

The falling OF in rural population,
rs shown in the last census, is mostly
within the first half of tho deca lie,
states the Boston Cultivator. There
has long been a tendency from the
farm to the cities, but it is at last
checked, and we believe that the pop
ulation of country towns is now small
er than it is ever likely to be again.
All that is needed is to secure better
roads, thus connecting these rural
towns with their neighboring cities
and with the world at large. There is
already the beginning of n movement
of the wealthy towards tue country.
With better means of communication
between town and city, this movement
will be sure to increase and give to
farm lands in Massachusetts, a greater
value than they have had for many
wears,

through his lung. "1ts my belief
that Jim CarrolPs the bravest man
that's fit into the war. Why, when
our Colonel went down in that lass
battle, what does Jim do but run right
back into the face Of the enemy, grab
loose horse, git our Colonel onto i'm
an come a-bringin' i'm away, cool as

mad when they seen it, an' he could a
got permotion then an thar ef he'd
a had it. But he said no, 1 thank
you, Jim did. He said he d lots ruther
do plain fightin'."
The four years were past-the "plain
fghtin' " was over. Appromattox was
q recent memory, and along all the
roadways trailed dusty and forlorn
figures, their faces turned toward
whatever region they had once called
home. Two men limped painfully
down the valley to the little town
lying peaceful and serene in the even
ing light as though there had been no
such thing as war in all the world.
Purple shadows of clouds drifted
across the distant hills, and along a
strip of white road on the outskirts Of
the town company of small boys with
paper caps and wooden guns were
playing soldiOt.
"Now, Jim," urged Sile, beseech-
ingly, "don't 60 back on your word.
Remember what you promised, Jim.
Don't ye go an let Minervy git the
stat of you ag'in. Jest think how
you fit into the war, an' stan up for
your rights.
81 lowed I would, Sile," replied
Jim, but there was faltering in his
tone as he glanced up the hill toward
the cabin, where a thread of blue
smoke curled softly up into the even.
ing air.
"Now, Jim, eff you give down I'll
be plum ashamed O. ye, that's what /
will. If you let Minervy get the start
O. you oncet more it's goodbY to your
chances. An a man that fit like you
did, too"
"I'll take keer, Sile," said the hero
of battle and scout. "Tm a-goin' into
store minute to buy something.
an then I'm agoin' up home"
Minervy had the supper nearly
ready in the little cabin on the hill.
She was in q hurry, because every
thing must be cleared away before
dark. Candles were too scarce to be
wasted, and the tall woman in the
homespun dress had learned all there
was to be learned in the way of pinch
ing economies. She had set the yell
low platter of "corn pone" on the
table and was turning back again
when figure in the doorway startled
her.
"Minervy, here's the wood you sent
me after" said the meek little man,
and he went across the room and laid
the armful of wood beside the hearth.
"An' here's that thread an them
piepans.
A grim humor in the utterance
struck her, and she fell back into a
chair, laughing and crying at the same
time, and clapping her worn, brown
hands.
"Well, you waited for 'em to grow,
reckin," she calculated between
sobs. "But it don't make no diff
runce, Jim. I'm done scoldin' the
rest O. my life. Supper's ready, jim.
I'm glad you got home in time for
supper.
And while she cried, the "bravest
man who fit in the war" wiped away
the tears from her face with hand as
tender as though it had never handled
a gun or been blackened with powder.

WHEN COTTON BALES COME II

WHEN COTTON BALES COME Iry.
30 the cotton bales are coming, and they'll
soon be with us here.
When the streets will all be Rladdened With
the white Bloom of the Year!
From the boats and cars and wagons will
arise rhythmic din,
And the world will be a-blossom when the
cotton bales come I'M
The world will be the whittier.
Our hearts will all be lighter,
And prospects loom the brighter,
When the cotton bales come in
In the upland fields and bottoms, like a
spreading Summer snow,
Old King Cotton's been a-dreaming OF the
happy time TO go.
For he'll bless hundred Nations. and above
the roar and din,
He will hear the peoples blessings, when tho
cotton bales come in!
The earth will glimmer newer,
And bosoms beat the truer,
While skies will beam the bluer,
When the cotton bales come in!

Gigantic Petrllled Oysters.

A bed of petrified oysters was found
on the top OF Big Mountain, just back
of Forkston, Wyoming County, Penn.
a short time since. A. Judson Starke
and William n Reynolds, Jr., OF
Lafayette College, amateur geologists
of Tunkhannock, spent a day on the
mountain and brought back a fine col
lection of them. Some of the speci
mems are of mammoth size, one meas
uring twenty-five inches long by niue
inches wide, and weighing forty
pounds. The specimens range in all
sizes, from this down to the ordinary
edible oyster of the present time
Some of the specimens show the eye
OF the oyster perfectly, ard in all OF
them the meat is eGJIly removed from
the shell. The bed seems to be con.
fined to a small mound resting on q
broad plateau, at the extreme top OF
the mountain, near the Sullivan
County line, and was first unearthed
by workmen in grading a railroad
from Lopez to the Jennings Brothers
lumber tracts. Philadelphia Ledger.

Charles johnson, of New York City,
is one of the -aluckiest men living,
and he is in fair way to be crushed
by circumstances over which he has
no control. A short time ago, relates
the Atlanta Constitution, Mr.. johnson
fell three stories and cracked his skull.
This was bad enough, but when jury
awarded him damages for his injuries
the defendant failed and he got little
or nothing. The worst, however, was
atill to come. He hal employed u
medical expert TO testify to the nature
and extent of his wounds, and because
he is unable to pay the mans fee uu-
der an order of the court he is now
