THE MAN IN BLACK.
A man in black is said to walk that
house every night, mumbling and
moaning as he passes UP and down the
broad stairway. Scores of people as
sert that they have heard him and a
few say they have seen him. One of
the latter describes him as follows:
His hair was long and curly, and part
ed on the side; his eyes were bright,
his features clearly cut and his face
pale. He was smooth shaver and wore
a high standing collar and a black
bow and stock. He was in evening
dress and wore no jewelry except a
gold fob. For a moment he ceased
mumbling, and then began moaning
and walked away. He passed the door,
walking toward the stairway.
The ghost hunter tiptoed to the door
and watched him ascend the stairway
until he was half way to the top,
when he stopped, as though he had
encountered another person. He raised
his hands appealingly and fell back
ward with a snriek that rang through
out the house and was answered by
the echoes. His hand struck a mar
BILE step, and, thinking that he had
been injured, the watcher rushed to
the spot. He saw nothing.
The history Of this ghost is tightly
locked with the family who now live
in the old Forbes mansion on Fifth
avenue, New York Paul Simeon
Forbes purchased the manor house in
1850 from the Van Rensselaers. with
900 acres of land. He paid $4,000 for
it, which was considerably less than
the cost of the house, the land being
practically thrown in. Whether the
ghost is the property of the Forbes
family or of the Van RenssaIaers no
one knows, for they hug the search
closely. The manor house is now the
property of a Boston man, Nathaniel
Stone.

AN ADOPTED SEAL.
Story of "A Dog That Adopted One
and Cared For 1t.

Out in Oregon is a gentleman who is
making a collection for a, park. Re
Gently he received a baby seal one day
and half old. No one knew how to
take care of it, and the gentleman, who
was very anxious to keep it alive, was
greatly puzzled as to how he should
feed the little stranger. He owned

who had a family of her own. She heard
the bark of the seal when he grew
hungry, and, like a dear little mother,
She started out, leaving her own fam
lily, to discover who this baby was who
needed a mother. When she saw the
seal she walked around and around it
very greatly puzzled. At last she
stood still, and the seal began flop
ping towards her very feebly AS it
came nearer it raised its head as if
asking her to help and then the dear
dog laid herself down and the seal
came UP to her and began taking its
breakfast, and now the seal and the
baby dogs are all one family.

Many people have a somewhat vague
idea of the mode of making and COM
position of filed cheese. 1t is described
to the committee at Washington as
being a sort of lard cheese, without a
particle of butter fat In it's manu-
facture seventy per cent of skinned
milk and thirty per cent of neutral oil,
made from hog leaf or unrendered lard,
is used To this is added certain color
ing or favoring matters, then the rem
net is put in, and it is made into
cheese. The cost is approximately four
and one-half cents a pound to manu-
facture.
1t is not always the COW that pro-
duces the most milk and most butter
that IS the most valuable, but rather
the one which produces the most for
each dollars worth of food consumed.
This is Illustrated by an experiment
recently made at the Clemson Agricul-
tural college, South Carolina. The cow
Marguerite produced in one year 6,512
pounds of milk and 296 pounds of but
ter. Ramona produced but $3.50 pounds
of milk and 279 pounds of butter. But
the expense account shows that after
each animal is charged with the food
consumed Ramona had So. 40 left to her
credit and Marguerite but $3.50 as net
profit for the year.

HIS IDEA.
City boy Thought He Saw Com

He was little boy. He had been
spending the day in the country, and
was waiting at the station for train
to bring him back to the city. Oppo-
site the station is a hennery. 1t has
high wire fence. In what you might
call the second story of the yard of
this hennery there is a large flock of
pigeons. See them chickensr ex-
claimed the small boy pointing to the
pigeons. Those are pigeons explain
ed the lady who was with him. He
looked puzzled for a minute, and then
he said, triumphantly, pointing to the
chickens ON the ground, "Them's con-
densed milk chickens, anyway" The
lady was astonished; what did the hit
tie boy mean? She asked him, and he
answered by asking another question:
Don't chickens make condensed
milk Then the lady told him about
the cow, and the milk she gives so
freely; she explained that condensed
milk was cooked milk. He listened, and
then with very decided shake of his
head, he said, THAT may be your con-
densed milk, by my mammals con-
densed milk is made by a chicken, and

On Thursday night OF last week George

Remember that Castoria does not con-
tain Morphine, Opium, or any other
narcotic substance, in any quantity, shape
or form. 1t is entirely vegetable, pleas
ant to take, positively effective, aud per-
fectly harmless. 1t is not secret remedy;
the formula is printed on the wrapper.
Your hpysician will recommend it. Pare
gorc, Bateman's Drops, and many so called
Soothing Syrups, are composed principal
ly of Opium or Morphine; in any quantity
they stupefy, and in large quantities are
deadly poisons. Castoria assimulates
the food and regulates the bowels, cures
disrrhpa, allays feverishness and freet-
fulness, soothes the pain in teething, re-
lieves constipation and kills worms. 1t
brings refreshing and natural sleep to the
child, and gives rest to the mother.
"Castoria is so well adapted to infants
and children, that / recommend it as
superior to any other known remedy"

"From personal knowledge and Obser-
walton can say that Castoria is an ex-
cellent medicine for children, acting as a
laxative and relieving the pent up bowels
and general system very much. Many
mothers have told me OF it's excellent eff
feet upon their children"
