Many an acre produces its 500 or

Why not have some competent man

CARE OF THE PIANO.

1t Should Not BE Left Open or in u
Damp Room.
Try, for the sake of the pianoforte as
as we'll as for any musician who may
be used to play upon it, to have it tuned
at least once in two months. The
strings must be kept at their proper
tension, and if they are allowed to drop,
as it is called, from the proper pitch it is
difficult to screw them back and make
them stay.
Pianofortes should not be kept open
either, for dust is just as injurious as
dampness, and, in fact, the air is al
ways an enemy to the great mass of
sensitive springs-the nerves of the in
strument. 1t should be placed in dry
room, quite away from possible drafts
and not too near fire. Heat not only
tends to warp and crack the case, which,
being highly inflammable, is apt to ig-
mite, but any increase or decrease of
temperature affects the strings and
brings them out of tune, exactly as does
excessive dryness or excessive mois-
ture.

Nothing should be placed on the piano
forte. No musical people ever put
vases or ornaments and books upon
this shrine of music, for they rattle,
absorb the sound, deaden the tone, and
worry the performer. The case and
keyboard should be kept free from
dust. To make the polish shine rub
the wood with a soft and old silk hand
kerchief, and to clean pianoforte use
warm water, soap and flannel rag.
Wet the latter, rub it on the soap, and
apply to the pianoforte, small portion
of the surface at time. Wet second
piece of flannel and wipe off the soap
thoroughly, and with piece of chamois
skin rub the place perfectly dry. Wipe
the keys off with a damp cloth, fol-
lowed quickly with dry one, and, if
the ivory has become yellowed from age
or usage this may be whitened by
good rubbing with fine sandpaper or

THRILLING LOVE TALE.

Sioux Maiden Wooed and Won by n
Cultured Foreigner.
Recently there was wedding cere-
inony at Bismarck, n. D., that
was the elimination of an ex-
traordinarily strange love romance.
Thomas Dulaine Cronan married Pic
ture Eyes. Cronan is young Irish
man of fine family and excellent con-
nections in Ireland and England. Pic
ture Eyes is the daughter of John
Moose, full-bloodcd Sioux Indian.

The story of the love that won her
and changed her condition of life. men-
tai and material, is as melodramatic as
q tale of Ouida's. Seven years ago
there came to this section of the coun-
try Thomas Dulaine Cronan, a young
Irishmau, a stalwart chap, cookbook
ing, well-dressed, well-educated, and
with the manners of a man of the
world. He came over to look after the
interests of an English syndicate with
large holdings near Bismarck
His ponsor was Moreton Fewen,
the noted English advocate of bimetal-
lism, who visited the United States last
fall to write of the strenuous cam
paign of the free silver men for the
London Times. Cronan one night
rode into Medora, the town established
by Marquis de Mores, when that
young French nobleman embarked on
his fantastic enterprise Of raising cat
tie for the worlds markets, and at the
same time running the beef monopoly
established and maintained by Chi
cago's big Four" and found a mob
surrounding the Jail.
The mob was clamoring for the life
of an Indian who was a prisoner in
the Jail charged with horse stealing.
A pluclSy little deputy sheriff was on
the steps of the Jail standing off, the
mob by his pistols. Cronan leaped
from his horse, and actuated by Gu
riosity to see such a wild western
scene as lynching, sbouldered his
way into the mob. While listening to

darting hither and thither among the
clamorous throng, frantically and tear
fully making plea in Sioux, tongue
unknown TO the tenderfoot from Ire
land.
Cronan quickly learned that she was
the daughter of the accused Indian, for
whose life the mob was clamoring.
Struck by her beauty and helplessness,
Cronan forced his way through the
throng, and, leaping up on the steps
beside the little deputy sheriff, drew his
weapons and added his voice to the
pieadings of the deputy sheriff Gro

was effective, and the mob dispersed.
The next day the Indian proved an
alibi and was released Cronan sought
out the Indian girl, the life of whose
father he had been instrumental in
saving. He found her in a miserable
unclean tepee in the Indian camp on
the outskirts of the town. He fell in
love with her. His love making was
all in the sign language. for Cronan
could not speak a word of Sioux, and
Picture Eye was equally ignorant of
English.
Cronan again returned to England.
but not until he had made arrange
ments for Picture Eyes education.
When he saw his bride next he found
her q demure, pretty, well-dressed,
well-educated girl, thoroughly well
able to hold her place in any society.

Mrs. Rorer Gives Recipes for the
French and MayOnnnise.
To make French dressing, put half
teacupful of salt and quarter of tea
spoonful of white pepper into bowl;
add gradually six tablespoonfuls of
olive oil. Rub until the salt is dis
solved, and then add one tablespoon
full of vinegar or lemon juice. Beat
well for moment and it is ready to
use. 1t is much better if used at once
Cream dressing is made by heating q
gill of good cream. Moisten a table
spoonful of corn starch with little
milk; add it to the hot cream, cook a
moment, then stir in the well-beaten
yolks of two eggs. Take from the fire;
add half teaspoonful of salt, dash of
pepper and tablespoonful of vinegar
or lemon juice.
Put the uncooked yolks of two eggs
into q clean, cold soup dish, then add a
quarter of a teaspoonful OF salt and n
dash of cayenne pepper; work these
we'll together, and then add, drop by
drop, half a pint or more of olive oil.
You must stir rapidly and steadily
while adding together. After adding
one gill of oil. alternate occasionally
with a few drops of lemon juice or vim
egar. The more oil you use the thicker
the dressing. If too thick add half
teaspoonful or more of vinegar until
the proper consistency. More or less
oil may be added, according to the
quantity of dressing desired.-Mrs. S.

Many drooping flowers will freshen
wonderfully if the tips of the stems are
trimmed off and the ends are then
held in hot water for few minutes.
Marshmallow stuffed dates make a
delicious after-dinner sweet. Remove
the pits from the dates, fill the space
with marshmallow. and roll the dates
in powdered sugar. One marshmallow
will stuff four dates.
When one is hurried In mailing a let

When making corned beef hash
moisten 1t with n little beef stock, if
you have 1t, in place of water. A pinch
of sugar added with the salt and pep

In ornamenting summer cottages a
bare corner may be made very eff
fective at trif1ing cost. Secure an
empty nail lteg from hardware store,
cover it with ebony paint and gild the

is best to use gum arabic starch. To
make it put into a bottle one ounce of
gum arabic and pour over it one cup

fire until the gum is dissolved; then
strain it through fine sieve or piece
of cheese cloth into another bottle.

the table dressed with white cloth of
