Excellence Of Dried Fruits.

One of our contemporaries says:
Can any method of cooking dried fruit
bring it back to the state in which it
was when plucked from the tree?" One
can form no idea of what can be &C
ccmplished in this way until he wit
nesses the exploits of some neat-hand-
ed housekeeper while engaged in pre-
pairing some toothsome fruit luxury for
the table. The samples Of cooked fruit
which are so literally passed out at
fairs and expositions, are very palata-
BILE, and serve to show what can be
done with our sun cured fruits. but 1t
is without the dominion of experiment,
and in domestic life alone. under the
hands of a practical housewife, that our
dried fruits achieve the highest excel
lence they are ever calculated to at
tain. If proprietors of restaurants
could only be made to believe it, they
would find these fruits taking item
on their bills of fare, and thousand
times preferable to their soggy pud-
dings and s.!e leather pastry.
Making a Little Extra Manure
There is no denying the fact that the
future success Of the average North
western farm depends on the manure
pile, and the man who proposes to
succeed has got to calculate on it. says:
Farm. Stock and Home. One of the
very best ways to add materially to the
81 n ha - q
and farmyard is to haul in muck from
some dried slough or marsh, or in the
absence of such, from some low hol-
low or a low place in the wood lot.
This rich muck will dry out in few
days and is one of the very cest abb
sorbents that can be used to take up
and hold the liquid manure. It may
be simply spread about the yard to be
carted to the fields in the spring, or 1t
may be more perfectly useo by drying
It and placing little of il in the stalls
daily. The odds and ends of time for
the next twenty days can be very pro-
fftably used in this work. If the sta
BILE has not been thoroughly cleaned
up do it now. Get the manure onto
the fields. 1. will be far better of
there than to undergo another winters

years ago he greatly desired to visit
England and other European countries,

not venture to do so without the con-

proclamation to every village in his en-
pire, telling what he wanted to do and
explaining the advantages that would
accrue to him and to the empire from
such a tour, and asking the people to
take a vote on the subject and let him
know the result. So the question was
submitted to universal suffrage. After
few weeks the returns were all in and
were counted, and it was found that a
considerable majority of the people
were opposed to his leaving the coun-
try. He was disappointed, but ac-

Harmfu1ness of Summer Girls.

A summer girl is not half so serious
a business as a platonic affair, though
her varieties, excuses and frittering
slowly bereave men of any notion of
steadfast affection and rational enjoy
ment She fastens like q parasite on
the tender college youth and adores
his fresh, young manliness. She leads
him jig in the dance of his feelings,
too weary to accept more than bonbons,
and ready to hold him in leash as a
brother when he runs to sentiment.
One or two such experiences teach him
in turn, as he grows older, the art of
f1irtations fencing and Of breaking off
in the middle of a declaration. At the
end of a season his vanity has not been
hurt by a refusal, and her conscience
consoles her for not having brought
him to the point. When he has re-
established his good opinion Of himself,
he finds he has lost his zest for a
lengthy marriage, thinks less of girls
and rIore of his mother and settles
down as a bachelor, ready again for
any test of his emotions which will not
culminate in the fixity Of feeling requi-
site for a wedding. One could NOR
alize over the harm these experienced
summer girls inf1ict upon ideals of hon.
or and loyalty if they themselves were

HAS WIVES GALORE.
So Far as Known Albert Kneeland
Holds the Record.

A much married man is Albert Knee
land. He is not handsome, btu he has
e1oouent ewes and splendid hair, in long,
flowing locks, and is an artist by pro-
fession and in love making. Eleven
wives is the record he holds in his long
matrimonial career, at least eight or
whom still live. Eight have sent in the
evidence of their connubial alliance with
Kneeland, and others, it is expected,
are vet to be heard from, and will no
doubt have something to say when they
learn that their husband, long mourned
as dead. repines, like Willie Reilly in the
buchanan County (Mo) Jail.
Kneeland is fifty-two years old. He
is a veteran of the late war. He prob
ably served his country with courage
and ability, for he draws a pension OF
! $40 per month. And thereby hangs the
knotted line of.evil circumstances that
bore him i'll and perhaps brought to an
end one of the most successful and
ornate matrimonial careers the country

co, painting the Aztec skies. Kneeland
was promptly transferred to prison.
The facts were published. and then
came the winds from the four quarters
of the matrimonial world, bringing
pofnted messages from wrathy wives.
These evidences of Kneeland's duplicity,
with the pictures of his victims, are now
in the hands of Attorney Joseph Wood
son. counsel for Mrs. Kneeland No. of
St. Louis. Kneeland's trial will be
called at the November term of the
Criminal Court, and it promises to be
the sensation of the year. He has

Numberless anecdotes are related Of

acts of Rev. Lorenzo Dow, the famous
itinerant Methodist preacher. Mr.. Col
Inns relates that when he was a widow
err he said to the congregation one day
at the close of his sermon:
'I am a candidate for matrimony;
and if there is any woman in this au-
dience who is willing to marry me, I
would thank her to rise"
A woman rose very near the pulpit
and another in a distant part of the
house. Mr.. Dow paused a moment
then said: There are two; 1 think
this one near me rose first; at any rate
1 will have her for my wife"
This woman was in good standing
and possessed of considerable property.

she became Mrs. Dow.-Youth's Com
