4 Real Marie Louise Gown

The Empress Marie Louise's bridal
dress, in which she was married in
1904 to Napoleon l., is at present
for sale in Rome. There is no waist"
to this historical robe, which is decor
ated with embroidered silk flowers,
and is considered a masterpiece of
embroidery. Marie Louise gave this
dress to a court lady in Parma, who,
after she was restored to health after
a serious illness, gave it to a church,
where it vas used on solemn occasions
on the altar. Several times large
sums were offered for this valuable
piece of work, and in 1888 it was sold
to an Italian countess, who now wiShe
to sell it again. The Austrian museum
for art and industries has asked to be
allowed to exhibit 1t at an exhibition
In Vienna next year, and the countess
has given permission, provided it Is
not sold before that time.

Preparing the cream for Churning.

Most good butter makers prefer the
cream to become slightly acid before
churnirg. but the acid should o he
carried too far, for if it is the yield
of butter will not be as great. as the
acid will consume, to a certain extent,
the oil or butter portion Of the cream.
The cream should be churned at a
t%emperature of 50 to 60 degrees I'm the
summer and at 90 to 81 degrees in the
winter. When milk is set in shallow
p.us and allowed to stand thirty-six
to forty-eight hours at a temperature
not varying but little from 90 degrees
the cream will perhaps be very near
the proper condition and temperature
for churning, when removed or skim
med. But when cream is raised by
the cold, deep-setting or Swedish
method, it's temperature is, of course,
not the proper one for churning, and
unless sweet, cream butter Ia prefer.

The Nations Peril.

In a recent editorial the Northwest
! ern Lumberman well states the case in
an article headed, Dishonesty the Ma
lions Peril" 1t says: Anybody who
has been but Il casual observer of
events in this country must have been
forcibly impressed with the recent
growing tendency to dishonesty and
downright villainy in politics, official
life, corporate responsibility and pri-
vate business obligations"
The writer then calls attention to
the we'll known lack OF honesty, honor
and patriotism among politicians,
those who run the political machinery
by which designing men get into
Off "inr what there is in it." Cor
poiate villainy and dishonesty in or
nary business life are followed by
malfeasance in office, embezzlement
of public funds, bank defalcations
and SO on, evidencing low moral
business standard in this country, and
which has discredited us abroad so
that a American securities are attling
nome to be redeemed
"The main cause OF the evils mere
recited," says the writer, sis an over
weening greed for money to satisfy an
extravagant way of living. The peo-
pie at large have an insane desire for
the lndulgencies which money affords.
they want the power, elegancies and
pleasures which wealth affords. The
common people and the smart, ambi-
tlous though low minded and vulgar
people have imbibed the notion
that can become prince of fortune
ii he make but sufficient effort.
A reform of moral sentiment
and purpose must be wrought among
the masses, or the nation will 90 to
destruction, undermined and dis
lntergrate by corruption, as have
several of the nations of past history.
1t Is to be hoped that there is vet
sufficient moral salt in the nation to
save 1T, but its renovating influence
should be speedily and necessarily
applied in order to check the rapid
endency toward decay and DEATH"
These are solemn words of warning.

journal are worthy of careful considera-
yion.-Aberdeen Herald.
