Massaohusetts omoiaI Ink.

There is no longer any uncertainty in
regard to the permanency of the official
record ink adopted for use on the state
records and official documents. As the
ink stands in the ink we'll it is of deep
greenish tinge and looks not unlike a
wri ting fluid. 1t seems hardly thicker
than fluid and flows smoothly and
easily from the pen. While still damp
on the paper it shows the same greenish
tinge that is apparent in the ink we'll,
but as it grows old on the paper it takes
on deep black and has smooth and
clean cut appearance, without being
glossy. After it has been ON the paper
a minute it is only family smutched by
vigorous rubbing with the moistened
finger, and if allowed to become old on
the paper can be wet thoroughly with
out being effaced. The secret is that the
ink eats directly into the surface of the
paper and cannot therefore be removed
without destroying that surface. There
is no danger that the ink will become
brown after it has been on the paper or
book for many years, for the brownish
tinge is given by logwood, and no log
wood is used in the record ink. Boston

A Museum Full of Curious Reminders Of
the Old Baltic League.
But one of the most entertaining
places was the Hanseatio house, or mu-
scum, which stands in the Finnegaard,
on the Tydskebrygge. 1t is the last re-
manning habitation occupied by that no.
torious ring of German traders who set
tied down in Bergen, Norway, in the
fourteenth century and monopolized it's
commerce for some 200 or 800 years,
until its power was finally broken in
the eighteenth century. All the other
houses have been burned or otherwise
destroyed, and this was the only one
left standing.
We climbed up to room in the SEQ
ond story, about 8 by 15 feet square,
and here were shown large number of
curious articles formerly used by these
old merchants. There were scales and
weights, the latter being of two sorts
one for buying and one for selling
clocks, lanterns, candlesticks, snuff
BOXES, washing bowls, drinking cups
and tankards, machines for chopping

ing collections in church. We were also
shown lamps that were fed with cod
liver oil, not then used for medicinal
purposes; decorations made Of strips Of
dried Goldfish, and the arms of the league
half an eagle and half cod, the lat
ter surmounted by crown which sug-
gested the origin of the term Goldfish
aristocracy.
Then, through a dark, rickety stair
way, we continued our climb to the
third story and were shown the mer-
chants business Office and the apart
ments for the clerks and bedrooms for
all. These last were the most curious of
the whole suit, for the beds are con-
structed like the berths of ship and are
closed Oh one side with hinged or slid
ing doors, while on the other shutters
open to a passage beyond to enable the
female domestics to make the beds

WOMAN AND HER WOES.

Here Are just a Few of the Handicaps OF
the Sex.
First. Excepting on the sly, she is
inhumanly barred from using cigarette
case.
Second. She is not allowed to make
love, but merely to receive the manufac-
tured article.
Third. When she bets with any mem
Der of the other sex, she rarely has the
privilege Of paying it if she loses.
Fourth. She is unable to go unat-
tended to the theater.
Fifth.-She cannot even dance more

partner whom she likes without being
suspected of tendency to f1irt.
Sixth. No matter how put out-by
her maid or her milliner-she is not
permitted the use of stronger language
than Dear mer' or ''How tiresome p
Seventh. -She may not chaff the
waiter at foreign table d'hote, al

chance of showing that she knows it.
Eighth. by masculine assumption
she is deemed unable to play cricket or
football and is doomed to less violent
games, like croquet and tennis, with
mild young men.
Ninth. Though over head and ears
IN love, she may never make an offer,
except, perhaps, in leap year, and for
this it would be hard for her to quote
an actual precedent.
Tenth. She is expected to be able to
make use of needle and is thus dis
abled from competing with men in
works of idleness
Eleventh. Her ears are stepped in
slang when her brothers come home
from school, and yet she is obliged, as
far as possible, to keep her lips from
using it.
Twelfth. If there be baby in the
house where she is visiting, she is pre-
sumed to be unable to talk sensibly
about it,

IN THE KINGS GARDEN.

"Oh, not for long, ali, not for long shall ! be
lingering
III the garden Of the king!"
80 blithely and SO proudly sang the rose,
"For my lady found me fair
And will pluck me for her hair,
And shall go with her where she goes.'
81 care not, oh, care not for the king or for
the queen,
Though the fairest ever seen,"
Sang the primrose from the bed across the
way,
"For the poet passed along
And wove me in song,
And shall live forever in his lay"
But the violet beside them only bent its head
and smiled,
For it knew little child
Had stolen to the corner where it grew.
She had named it best of all
And fairest, though SO small
And crowned it with kiss. But no one
knew.

of Cheese In Cold Storage

The cold storage service provided by
the government ON board the Atlantic
steamers is proving most successful in
every respect. A sufficient quantity of
butter was not provided for the first
steamer to Liverpool to fill the insulated
compartment In consequence the dairy
commissioner decided to try an expert
mental shipment of cheeses. The ship
ments of fresh made creamery butter
which have been offered for export the
last few weeks are in excess of the space
which could be provided, being over
1900 packages per steamship. The fol-
lowing, from the Liverpool Daily Post
of July II, gives intimation of the ad-
vantage which is likely to result from
an application of the cold storage serv-
ice to our valuable cheese industry:
Last week we announced that, Pro-
fessor Robertson of Canada having su-
pervised the construction Of refriger-
ator room ON the Allan liner Mongolian,
the first shipment in the cold chamber
was made from Montreal on the 29th
ult A large line of cheese received by
Mr.. ]. W. Hill into his cold store, Will
liam street, Montreal, on June %,
was placed by the firm of Messrs. J. @.
q G. ID. Warrington at the disposal of
Professor Robertson, and after his in
spection of condition and quality was
conveyed on board within the space re-
served in the government refrigerator
room.
The cheese was consigned to Mr.
John I. Warrington of Button street,
Whitechapel Liverpool, and the news
of its condition on arrival here has been
anxiously awaited in Canada among
those engaged in the dairy industry
there, of which Professor Robertson is
the leading exponent. Since its arrival
in Liverpool we have had an opportunity
of inspecting the cheese thus shipped.
The consignees express themselves as
highly satisfied with the outcome of the
experiment. The cheese, which in all
comprises upward of $40 boxes, has been
warehoused in the Button street stores
in the very pink of condition. The para
mount object in shipping cheese hither-
to has been to obtain as great an i'm
munity as possible from sweating of
the article. Not only does the cheese it.
self become impoverished in quality by
sweating, but foreign fiavors are i'm
parted, owing to the presence of other
cargo in the hold of the vessel. The new
experimental process adopted by Pro-
fessor Robertson in the instance under
notice not only prevents sweating, by
reason of the refrigerating resorted to,
but also by isolation absolutely pre-
cludes the possibility of any foreign
flavor being contracted. The whole of
the boxes of cheese received by Mr.. War
rington are quite free from sweating
marks and as fresh as when first taken
on board the Monaghan. Hence it is not
at all improbable that Professor Robert
sons method, as applied to cheese, if
not prohibitive in point of cost, will at
no distant time find universal accept

Much Money In Dairy Farm Close to
the CITY.

muCn money 4u u OAATI arm OAODo W
the City.
The dairyman who owns large farm
within driving distance of a large city
has great advantage over those who
live at such q distance that milk and
cream must be shipped by rail. There
are many farms, too, not far from the
large cities that can be leased for small
rentals, and probably first class dairy
man could do better to take one Of
these than to select locality far away
from the central markets. If one wishes
to make butter, the distance from the
market is not SO great an item, but
when milk and cream are the chief
products the nearer one can get to the
city the better.
The market gardeners have made
farming in the outskirts of cities a
profitable industry, but very few dairy
farmers have as yet awaited themselves
of the same opportunities. Customers
who know where their milk and cream
come from are always willing to pay
good prices. A dairy farm located not
far from large city can be run on
paying basis, and customers can be
found by simply advertising the fact
and delivering the milk fresh to them
every day direct from the farm.
There are one or two such farms To-
Gated in New Jersey and one on Long
Island. The owners are experienced
dairymen, and they have obtained land
at mere nominal rentals. In time the
land will probably be used for building
purposes, but this may be 30 years off
yet, and before that time the occupants
will probably be in fair way to buy
them. One Of the dairymen in question
had few thousand dollars, and he
bought the old farm outright, and in
time the land will bring him in small
fortune, when Brooklyn extends out his
way.
A large dairy farm is soon to be es-
tablished ON the east end of Long Is
land, where land is cheap and pastures
abundant In the summer time the dairy
will supply the summer hotels and cot
tages scattered all along the shore with
milk and cream. 1t is partly with this
idea in view that the work of convert
ing abandoned land Of Long Island into
huge dairy farm was started.
While we hear considerable of farm
ers and dairymen grumbling about the
lack of profits in their business, we see
occasionally the reports of enterprising
business men going into farming on a
large scale to make money. The ques-
ton naturally arises, Is the blame not
with the farmer? If his methods are not
the best, he must expect to fail. Bust
ness men succeed, and there is no reason
why farmers should not. Only the wisest
and shrewdest succeed in anything

a man named Phair was attacked by a
moose. Owing, he says, to the fact that
the shooting of moose was prohibited by
law, Phair did not attempt to use his
gun. The consequence was he was seri-
ously injured by the animal Phair is
now instituting damage proceedings
against the state on the ground that the
