There has been wonderful change
in recent years in the manner of framing

E1mely Hints Concerning the Killing and
Dressing OF Hogs.
Butchering time is near at hand !;
have plenty of dry wood up, kettles and
scalding tub ready, the old gun ready to
shoot, and the knives sharpened. Meat
killed in moderately cool weather will
take salt better and keep sweeter than
that killed in severely cold weather.
Under latter conditions it is liable to
freeze or chill before the animal heat
md smell leaves the carcass.
Water heated with hot limestone
rock will clean hog better than water
heated in kettles. If you heat in ket-
ties, put shovelful of ashes in the
heat but water at 175 to $50 degrees
will do the work much quicker, but
with more danger of setting the hair.

HOW MEAT is SLICED.

Its Thickness Distinguishes Many Races of
Men.
A member of the Professional Woman's
league who has travelled extensively in for
eign lands said that you can classify the
peoples of the world by the way they cut
their meat, says u New York exchange.
The powerful physical nature of the An
glo-Saxon is we'll illustrated by the huge
rib roasts and the immense shoulders of
mutton. The moro artistic nature of the
FrenChman Is shown by his cutting his
meat into thin slices of flllet, into epiprams
and into the fllmy affairs he calls "rosbif. "
The Arab cuts his meat into thin rib
bon, wraps 1t around an iron skewer,
broils it over charcoal fire. and, 10 and
behold there is the famous kabob. Strange
to say, it is very rare for the Anglo-Saxon
to cut his meat thin just as it is rare for
the eastern races to serve it in massive
portions Yet we could improve our daily
bill of fare, especially in the summer sea-
son, by adopting many of the dishes and
methods of these other races.
Thus the kabob system may be applied
to any kind of flesh or fowl and produces
a crisp, palatable and nourshing culinary
creation. Another series of very pleasant
dishes are made by cutting meat into long
strips about the size of lead pencil and
frying them, after they have been sailed
and peppered, in either their own fat or in
olive oil. The liquid should be very hot
before the meat is put in so as to close up
all the pores and keep the juice within the
fiber. These pencils, when cooked proper
ly, are clean, delicious, brittle and very
appetizing. Still another system comes
from Italy and Spain in that very attract
i've preparation known as fritas. These
consist of little pieces of meat about the
size of a hickory nut. One will be made
Of beef, another of lamb, third of chick
en-, fourth of duck, a fifth of corned beef,
sixth of cold beefsteak. The greater the
variety the more successful the dish
These pieces are very we'll seasoned, be-
ing rubbed with Glove of garlic, sailed,
peppered and usually touched with a drop
or two of onion juice They are then dip
ped in batter and fried over a very hot
fire. When they come out, all look alike,
SO that the guest has the additional attrac
tion of novelty, variety and surprise.
The toughness of the kidney disappears
alomst entirely if 1t be cut with sharp
knife as fine as Saratoga chips, or, better
STILL If 1t be put through "a meat cutting
machine and reduced to mere pulp. The
Bredt advantage VI unlS Style OF prepare
ton Is that 1t makes meat absolutely safe.
All flesh is liable to contain within its
fbers the germs and even the bodies of in.
ternal parasites. These are killed by the
high temperature and long exposure.
Nevertheless in many pieces of roast beef
as served upon the best tables in the land
there are UNDERGONE oenters where these
organisms may be alive. The eater does
not know the difference, because they are
hardly discernible to the naked eye. Gut

Jowett's Idea of a University.

In Jowett's first sermon in Balliol chap
el, be spoke of the college, FIRST as a
place of education; secondly, as place of
society; thirdly, as a place of religion. -
He was accustomed to use very similar
language about the university "There
are two things which distinguish uni
versity from mere scientific Institution.
First of all, 1t is a seat of liberal educa-
ton, and secondly, 1t is place of society
Both education and society he conceived
Of nobly. He sought to impress upon each
generation Of undergraduates "the un-
speakable Importance of the four critical
years of life between about 10 and 49,"
when the task before each young man is
"to improve his mind to eradicate bad
mental habits, to acquire the power Of or
der and arrangement, to learn the art OF
fixing his attention" 1.-THE object of
reading for the sohools''--the final honor
examinations-"is not chiefly to attain a
first class, but to elevate and strengthen
the character for life.''
As against those who declare examina-
lions injurious, he maintained that "they
give fixed aim toward which to direct
our efforts. They stimulate us by the love
Of honorable distinction. They afford an
opportunity of becoming known to those
who might not otherwise emerge. They
supply the leading strings which we also
need Neither freedom nor power can be
attained without order and regularity and
method. The restless habit of mind which
passes at will from one view of subject
or from one kind of knowledge to another
Is not intellectual power. '-Professor w.
j. Ashley In Atlantic.

Young was no older when he made his
first communication to the Royal society,
and was in his twenty -seventh year when
he first actively espoused the undulatory

champion, was then but two years his
senior.
Forbes was under 30 when he discovered
the polarization Of heat, which pointed the
way TO Mohr, then 81, to the mechanical
equivalent. Joule was 22 in 1910, when
his great work was begun, and Mayer,
whose discoveries date from the same
year, was then 26, which was also the age
of Helmholtz when he published his indie

THE ENGLISH METROPOLIS.
No Comparison Between the London OF
Today and of Elizabeth's Time.

No Comparison Between the London OF
Today and of Eiizabeth's Time.
1t is usual to compare the glories of Vic
toria's reign with those of Elizabeth, but
between the London of today and that of
"good Queen Boss there is really no com
parison. London was still grit around by
the walls built by the Romans and was
largely inclosed within them. The man
sions of the great lay outside the city walls,
chiefly on the way from the Strand to West
minister. There were few stone houses and
none tiled or slated, being mostly built of
wood and matched with straw. Beyond
the royal palace at Westminster was open
country, and marsh lands formed the sole
feature of the landscape across the river.
On the other side of the city was open coun-
try, with "merrie Islngton,'' village, In
the distance. Where st. Sepulchre S church
now stands were slums. In Golden lane
was a row of curious old houses which had
been used as a nursery for the children of
Henry VIII. Roundabout the Moor gate
were large houses, and farther out a wa
terry tract which abounded with wild fowl.
The citizens used to exercise themselves
here with archery practice and sport. In
Dishopgate the eurls of Deyonshire had
their palace. Huundsditch was foul ditch,
the receptacle for sewage, and there was a
similar ditch on the western side of the
city. sanitary science was unknown. The
paving oi the streets was in its infancy
Except with regard to a few of the prinoi-
pl thUruur .idres, each inhabitant paved
as mach us he liked before his own door
with the materials that his pride, poverty
or caprice II light suggest.
The streets were obstructed with stalls,
sheds, signposts and projections of every
kind. Curhstores were unknown, and
only in few thoroughfares were the foot
paths divided from the oarriageway with
posts and chains. This was the London of
Elizabeth, just 300 years ago-a very diff
ferent city from that of today-a London
gradually becoming foul and pestilential,
ultimately to be cleared and purified by
the great plague, which carried off a fifth
of the inhabitants in 1865, and the great
fire of the following year, which involved
| 400 streets, 13, 200 houses, 80 churches, ST..
| Pauls cathedral and four city gates.
| Before the fire 1t is estimated to have
contained from 10, 600 to $4,000 streets,
alleys and lanes, 1856, 900 houses and about
| 700, 900 Inhabitants. So that in II oen-
turies London had grown to population
| of under 750 900. BY the beginning of
| Queen Victoria s life it had increased to
| 1000, 900, and now it is sevenfold what 1t
was under "good Queen Bess" Rather
than to Elizabeth, London owes its growth
| to Charles II, for, after the restoration,
| those who returned with him did not care
to return to their old city houses, but built
themselves mansions farther west, leaving
the city to the merchants, by whom it has
ever since been monopolized. London

Christened From a Golden Font.

Days of England Queen" for ST. Nicholas
Mr.. Cassidy says Of Queen Victoria:
When the child was few months old,
she was christened, and the christening
was very grand affair. No common mar
BILE or stone font was used. A gold font
was thought necessary. And so gold
font was brought from the tower of Lon
don, where it had been kept for safety.
One of her sponsors was Car Alexander

chosen for the baby was Alexandrina Vic
