Lord Salisbury went to visit the

1t is evident that important decisions
have been arrived at regarding eastern
affairs, since tomorrow mornings Post

spired by the foreign office. The article
Is understood to indicate that the prime
minister has decided that the utmost
effort must be made 20 maintain the
integrity OF the Turkish empire. and
therefore efforts must in the first place
be directed to restoring order in the
disturbed districts. Continuing. the
article says:
For the moment all thought OF CO.
ercing the sultan should be laid aside.
1t cannot be doubted that he will defer
to the wishes OF the powers as soon as
circumstances shall permit him to do
so. II Is difficult to apportion the
blame justly between the Turks and
the Christians. and IL Is believed the
disorders are partly due to the careless
order of the sultan. who commanded

with much generosity by the Turks.
while the Armenians themselves are
blameable to some extent for fomenting
disorders.

position enabling them 20 give import

Winter HaYmnkinp.

Travelling in the interior of Maine in
the early part of December said COM
mercial traveller, l found that some of the
farmers were engaged in haymaking upon
the ice. In one township on raw day,
with the thermometers at zero, two men
in different places were moving upon the
ice with scythes and cutting good swaths
of grass too. Near one mower was a hay
rack mounted on sled, which two boys
with a rake and pitohfork were loading
with the hay as it was cut
The grass grew in marshes too wet to
NOW in summer, SO the farmers had to
wait till the swamp was frozen hard
enough to bear the weight of a man and
a loaded sled before setting about this
haymaking. The grass which grew thick
and rank, had cured on the stalk, and the
coarse hay thus obtained was for use as
stable bedding and in ice packing

empowered to impose tax on all nomadic
industries Among these is included the

while he slept. At the usual time he rose
up, sprang out of bed, but did not move
from the spot, and CROPPED and tumbled

length he perceived the cause of his distress
and took off the gloves. Scarcely were his
hands uncovered when he started up in u

upon the means taken to blind him, and

To Preserve Eggs.

One of the best ways to preserve eggs Is
to smear them well with vaseline, pack
them carefully in wooden box with n
lid, putting good layer of kitchen salt
between each layer of eggs When the box
is full, tighten the lid firmly down, and
every fortnight turn the box upside down
to prevent the yolk from settling. Eggs
preserved in this way when boiled cannot
be told from fresh ones. Vaseline answers
better than butter, as it does not decom-
pose.-New York Telegram.
