Keeping Cut Flowers.

take of supposing that cut flowers must

You can keep flowers for many days in a

them with the hand is enough. You see,
when you cut flower from It's parent

1t grows the sooner 1t will fade, because,
alas, fading begins directly growing ends,
So you must not too greatly encourage the

will do this If you keep 1t always In water,

yerdrs Little Expedisnt.

Verdi, if we may believe the Italian
papers just to hand, has, by an innocent
little expedient, at last induced Boito
to put the finishing touches to his op-
era, "Verone, the long expected sue
cessor to Mefstofele" Some months
ago, it seems, Boito brought Verdi the
sketches for two libretti, 'Purgatory"
and "Hades, both, Of course, based on
Dante. Verdi, however, laughingly re-
fused to look at any more words for mu-
sic from Boito's pen until "Verone"
was completed. A week or two since,
therefore, Boito brought the venerable
maestro another bulky package 1t was
the score of "Verone, and the two
spent some hours in playing it over. AS
Boito was leaving, to Verdi's astonish-
ment, he likewise produced the complete
libretto of "Purgatory" less an opera
of course, than u dramatic cantata.
Whether, at his advanced age, the com
poser of "Il Trovatore" will undertake
to set SO imposing subject to music is,
however, altogether another matter. =

THE GRAY GABLES DEAD LINE.


President Cleveland Compelled to Keep
the Curious Public at Distance.
Office seekers and curious people have
compelled President Cleveland to establish
"dead line" at his summer home Gray
Gables, beyond which no person may go
without the permission of the president
himself A dead line Is usually mark
beyond which no man may pass without
getting shot, but at Gray Gables the Wis
itor who insists upon forcing his atten-
tions upon the president after he has been
refused an audience is simply escorted
from the premises by two firm but gentle
manly secret service men, Officers Nc
Manus and Hazen. AS Gray Gables is
built at the seaward end of peninsula,
with very narrow neck, and as the dead
line extends across this neck it is a sim.
pie matter for the detectives to intercept
all visitors. From their lodge near the
dead line the officers can sweep the ocean
and the roads with their vigilant eyes, and
the Office seeker who thinks to elude them
by crossing to the peninsula in a boat is
invariably headed off at the little floating
dock
At Gray Gables the president is very
democratic in his manners and dress, and

fornia. The story has been exploded by
the naturalists who traced 1t to its origin,
which was this: Colonel or Captain W. G.
Pidge owns quarry not far from Bishop
in the above named state, and one day,
while handling some rocks, he turned over
one under which he found the ophidian
rarity which gave rise to the story Of the
race OF two headed west coast reptiles.
This queer freak in the snake family was
lively specimen, being about one foot
long and with perfect head on each end
of the body. In relating the story Of Its
capture Mr.. Pidge said: "As you may see
by looking in that jar Of alcohol sitting
there, he was a complete double ender,
capable of reversing his machinery and
starting off in the opposite direction quick
or than a flash. When would place my
cane before him-that Ia to say, in the di,
rection In which he happened to be NOV,
ing-he would dart back with the other
end, or head first, precisely as II that were
the only head he possessed and as If II
were the regular front end-the one which
he had depended upon all his life."
Several double headed snakes have beer
killed In the United States within the last
ten years, but all the others, with the
single exception of Kentucky curiosity
had both heads on the same end of the
body. ST. Louis Republic

MILK SOLD BY THE PLUG.
Solid Frozen Cubes of the Danish Product
on Sale In London.


Solid Frozen Cubes of the Danish Product
on Sale In London.
Canada's representative in Denmark
reports that during the I2st year new
industry has been established there
which promises to prove both profitable
and serviceable, and which might be
followed with equal success on this side
of the water-viz, the shipment Of fro
zen milk to large CITIES, A year ago a
Danish merchant experimental in this
direction by taking Danish milk, which
is peculiarly delicate and rich in flavor,
freezing it by the use of ice and salt,
and sending it in barrels by rail and
steamer to London. On its arrival the
milk proved to be as sweet and well
tasting as if it had been just drawn
from COW in the middle Of Denmark.
The milk was so much in demand and
proved so profitable an article Of com
merce that the exporter Immediately
took out a patent on the shipment of
frozen milk from Sweden and Denmark
to London. He then sold the patent to
stock company with large capital,
which, on Feb. last, bought one Of
the largest Swedish creameries, convert
ed it into factory, and, having put in
q special freezing apparatus, began, on
May 1, the export of frozen milk in large
quantities
When the milk is received from the
farmers it is Pasteurized, that is, heat
ed to rs degrees c., and then immedi-
ately cooled off to about 10 degrees c.,
and then the freezing is commenced.
Half the milk is filed into cans and
placed in freezing apparatus, where it
will be thoroughly frozen in the course
of three hours. The frozen milk is then
filed into barrels of pine, the only kind
of wood that can be used. The barrels,
however, are only half filed with this
frozen milk, the balance being filled
with the unfrozen milk This way of
packing has proved to be the only prac-
tical one, as part of the milk has to be
frozen in order to keep the whole cold,
and part has to be in flowing state in
order to get the barrels exactly full,
which is necessary in order to avoid toe
much shaking up ON the road, by which
the cream would be turned into butter.
The floating masses Of ice at the same
time prevent the unfrozen milk from set
Ting the cream. Milk which is treated
in this way has proved to keep quite
fresh for 26 days. Every barrel holds
1000 pounds of milk, and twice week
there will be shipped so barrels, making
in all about 100, 900 pounds of milk q
week.
The milk is shipped to Newcastle and
from there by rail to large manufactur
ing cities, where it is sold in the streets
or in retail stores 1t is reported that
the patent has been bought for Ireland
also at cost of $780, 900, which proves
how much the stock company expects
from this new enterprise.
The time may not be far away wher
the dairy farms of the New England
and western states may be sending, no
butter and milk, but frozen milk anC
cream, to the large cities of both CONT
nents. ts.-Philadelphia Record.
