YEAST OF LONG DESCENT.

Brought from Ireland, and Its stock
Goes Dnck OF CromwelPs Time.
Mrs. Barbara Curran, who lives near
East Orrington, Me-, has n stone crock
on a shelf in her cellar which is filled
with yeast, and both the crock and the
yeast came over from Ireland in her
possession in 1886, says the New York
Sun.
She came to America when girl, and
brought the yeast Us a present to on
aunt, who lived in South Boston. The
leaven was renewed with freshly
scraped potatoes three times during the
voyage on the sailing packet that
brought her 10 this country. When
she found employment as o cook in q
Boston boarding house she took this
yeast along and kept it alive and Wig
orous until she WIS married in 1852 and
went to live in Medford. Before the
war her husband moved to East Orring-
ton and took up the farm where he now
lives. Though they were poor and had
much hard work, the yeast was never
allowed to die out or get stale. The
crock in which 1t is kept is q hand-mold-
ed brown earthen vessel, holding about
two quarts. 1t was made and baked on
the farm of Mrs. CurTan's father, who
rented n place near Galway. Mrs. Cur
ran says this particular kind of yeast
has been kept alive in the Norton fam
lily since before the time Cromwell's
soldiers came along and found her
great-great-grandmo making bread
for the troops of King Charles T., and
hanged her to an ash tree in front OF
the house.

INDIA SHAWLS.

Very Good limitations Are Made I'm
France.
Since the introduction of the Tibet
goat into France the cashmere shawl
has been initiated with such wonderful
eXactness that it is hard to detect the
imitation from the original, says the
Chautauquan. Experts say, however,
that the genuine India shawl can be
detected from it's having less even
~ woven web and also from it's brighter
colors. 1t Is likewise said that the Dor
der of the real India cashmere shawl is
invariably woven in small pieces, which
are sewed together and the whole Dor
der is afterward sewed onto the center.
1t is q mistake to think that the shawls
gre manufactured in India in the .orm
in which they ore sold here. Generally
the borders and centers come out sop
arately and are put together in sizes
and often in patterns to suit the GUS
toners. ...
A number of shawls sold as "real In
dia" are actually manufactured In
France. Persons familiar with both
articles say that the original is softer
than the imitation and that this soft
ness arises from the way the thread Is
spun and partly also because the Tibet
gont deteriorates when removed from
its native hills,

Fascinating John Bright.

Sir Wemyss Reid gives some interest ing "reminiscences of John Bright in Cassell's Magazine. The great Liberal leader often sat in an old fashioned armchair in the Reform club. He de- lighted ill talk and was fond of repeat ing poetry On one occasion he began to talk to Sir Wemyss about his favorite hymns, and as he warmed to his subject he repeated some of them. It was a strange subject, perhaps, for club smoking room, but it was still stranger to observe that as he spoke with that wonderful voice of his the other men in the room first looked up and began to listen, and then, as though drawn by an irresistible spell, drew nearer to him. until before long he had them all sitting round him in a circle enjoying that music of the human speech" of which above all living men he was a master John Bright reciting hymns in a club smoking rooml "There.' ex- claims Sir Wemyss, is picture for an artist if he only knows how to treat it !"
