THE SECRET OF FRENCH COOKING.

The gentle heat is said to be the Sc
cret of the superior delicacy and rich
ness of French cooking. With gen
tie heat and tight covers we may have
just the amount of juice we like in
our vegetables. A glance will decide
this, or perhaps the ear, If the hand
at the same time rests on the cover.
Many kinds of meat may be cooked in
this way to the best advantage. A
rump steak, three or four inches
thick, kept closely covered and cooked
in its own juices alone, will be far
moro tender than when put into the
oven; and this without basting and
without fat, the latter having been
trimmed off closely.--St. Louis Star

Textile Schools in Massachusetts.

So we are to have four textile schools
to keep company with the four new
normal schools authorized by the Leg
islature of 1891! Perhaps it would
have been as well to try the textile
experiment with single school, but
when several cities want thing, the
only course to prevent them all from
getting left would seem to be to bunch
their interests and divvy the proceeds.

SUMMER CARE OF MILK.

Cleanliness in all dairy operations
is of first Importance. Milk with dry
hands. Keep the atmosphere in which
the milk must stand free from bad
odors. Preserve the desirable favors
in the cream. If the milk is wanted
sweet, lower the temperature as soon
as the milk is drawn from the COW to
just above freezing if possible. Neglect
of proper care of milk by patrons Is
the cause OF much trouble at the fac
tory and results in like reduction in
net profits. 1t pays to be honest. =

twenty minutes, after which add one
tablespoonful of salt and a little pep

EPHRAlM AND THE BEAR.
How He <u,"d "a Iearling In Fair
Fight Without Weapons.

Old Ephraim Hatfield, father of Anse
and Elias Hatfield, Of McCoyHatiield
feud nutoricty, was a born fighter, He
was also mighty hunter, and had one
ambition. 1t was to kill a yearling bear
in fair fight without any weapons
other than those nature provided him
with. Every day that he felt especially
strong he would 90 out with his dogs
and his boys, and freeing bear, would
get him down and fight him. When
bruin would begin to get the best of the
encounter, he would call his boys to let
loose the dogs. Year after year passed
and Ephraim had not yet whipped
bear
One day fine yearling bear was
freed, and as Cuffy was climbing to
place of safety old man Hatfield cut off
a piece of the animals tail with quick
blow of his knife and the bear came
down. Ephraim threw his gun and
knives to the boys and cried out:
Hes IA likely varmint, Stan aside,
boys, an watch yo' dad. I'm comm,

throat.
The animal got its paws around

But the boys thought the old man
would never have better opportunity
to realize his ambition and whipa year

German Criminal.
In an imperial city lately criminal
was condemned to be beheaded who had
n singular itching to play at ninepins.
While his sentence was pronouncing he
had the temerity to offer request to
be permitted to play once more at his
favorite game at the place Of execution,
and then he said he would submit
without a murmur
As the last prayer Of dying man
his request was granted. When arrived
at the solemn spot no found everything
prepared, the pins being set up and the
bowl ready. He played with no little
earnestness, but the sheriff at length,
seeing that he showed no inclination to
desist, privately ordered the eXecutioner
to strike the fatal blow as he stopped
for the bowl.
The executioncr did so, and the
head dropped into the culprit's hand as
he raised himself to see what had oc-

nine, conceiving that it was the bowl
which he grasped. All nine falling, the

Pious Indians.

The history of Canada, especially its
earlier history, preserves the story of
many a deed Of heroism and devotion
on the part of Christian missionaries
who worked and persisted among the In
dians, but there are few stories which
reflect so much credit on Indian piety
as that published from Quebec. Mon
tagnas and Eskimos came from the
southern shore of Hudson strait to Wor-

volved a tramp on foot of 1000 miles
through an inhospitable country,
through forests, across rivers, mountains
and lakes, to render duty they owed
