Danish Country Life.

Mrs. Alec Tweedie, an English woman,
has been calling attention TO the country
life Of the people of Denmark, with special
reference to their dairy system.
There must be thousands of women in
this country, TO say nothing Of cottagcrs'
and farmers wives, who might be making
the additional incomes they so sorely need
If they would but keep few fowls and a
possible COW, as every other Danish woman
does whatever her station may be. But
cooperation must be secured first. Singly,
no one in this country can do much in
this way; collectively money can be
amassed. And this only means that one
person in n district should undertake TO
make house TO house collection week by
week OF all the eggs for the nearest mar
ket, and that oil milk should be sent In
bulk TO buttcr factories instead of being
made up In small quantities as it is now,
and sent off to find us all as best it can.
Mrs. Twoedle conclusively proves that
Denmark, with all its advantages, is wax
Ing fat on money, while we grumble that
thcre Is mono to be made.-London Fort

Charcoal Making For Gunpowder.

Charcoal making for gunpowder Is q
much more complicated process than the
ordinary field kiln manufacture. Only
certain kinds of wood arc used-usually
tho young shoots of elder and willow
and IL Is cut In the spring, SO that tho
bark may be stripped of. II is then piled
under airy, open sheds and allowed 10 re-
main several years until IL Is thoroughly
dried. When the powder maker is ready
for a new supply of charcoal, the wood Is
cut into lengths Of three feet aud placed
in tight iron retorts, under and around
which fire roars continually. The damp
ers and pipes arc SO arranged that tho
workmen have complete control of tho
heat. AT the end Of the retort hole Is
left for the escape of the inflammable gases
resulting from the charring process. A
pipe catches them as they leave the rctort
and conveys them into the furnace, where
they take the place of u good deal of fuel.
When the flames of the gas become
deep blue color, the workmen know that
the wood Is sufficiently charrcd, and the
retort Is cooled down as quickly as posi-
BILE. The charcoal Is then left for a week
or more before grinding, because II placed
in the machine ut once there Is danger of
spontaneous combustion. The best char
coal Is jet black and fractures show vel
yety surfaces.
The grinding machine is like huge old
fashioned coffee mill-two roughened
cones turning ono inside the other AS the
powdered charcoal comes out 1t falls upon
q screen, and all that goes through il Is
taken TO the powder mill, and the residue
"tailing over" ,is returned to the grinder.

Here's praise from an unexpected source.
An English periodical says:
"Tho American cuisine undoubtedly

tomatoes, gherkins etc. As you talk you
