SECRET AIRY WILSON'S
BUTTER SCHEME,

Professor James Wilson, United
State secretary of agriculture, says he
means the scientific experts in his de-
partment shall work for the farmer and
not for the admiration of other scien-
fitic gentlemen. One of the first things
he is going to do is, if possible, to
work up trade with Great Britain in
American butter.
A grain broker who sat next to Mr..
Wilson at dinner one evening happen
ed to speak of the American corn he
shipped to Denmark. Professor Will
son asking what the Danes did with
the corn. He was told that they fed
the American corn to their COWS and
then shipped bntter at good profit to
England.
Professor Wilson decided that if Den
mark could buy American corn to feed
cows with and then make profit in
England on the butter thereby pro-
duced American creamery men could
ship butter produced at home from
American corn and send it also to
Great Britain and make still more
profit. He directed one of his assis-
tants to buy several hundred pounds
of the best American creamery butter,
pack it very carefully, and ship to
London and sell it. Part of the but
ter was to be packed in 60 pound tubs,
in the American way, part in square
boxes in Australian style and the rest
in tight tin cans. This was to ascer-
tain what style of package the English
liked best The agent was directed to
be particularly careful that the flavor,
salting and color were of the best.
The order is now being filled. Sec
rotary Wilson is of the opinion that
our best creamery butter is equal to
any in the world. even the Danish, as
indeed it is. He wishes to tind bv eX-
pertinent just what the British and
Europeans want in butter and then
prepare an article which will fill the
demand. In this way he will extend
appreciably the market for American
dairy products. Such science as this
is the kind that the agricultural de-
partment is paid for engaging in, ex-
actly.
1t may be remarked incidentally
that the constituencies American
scoundrels who have been shipping
butterine and divers vile compounds
to Europe under the name of Ameri-
can butter have about ruined the rep
utation of our dairy products there.
If Professor Wilson shall succeed in
building it, he will confer great ben
eft on his country.

THE WOMAN WHO IS TIDY.

In days gone by, before the new
woman appeared upon the scene of
action, girls were rigidly taught the
good old fashioned principle of tidi-
ness. "Neatness' hardly expresses
my meaning as we'll as does the quaint
old time word. To be "tidy," Webs
ter tells US, "is to be arranged in good
order; neat, kept in proper and be-
coming neatness." Nowadays girls
are neat to a certain extent and in a
certain way. They bathe freely and
wear clean clothes. But are they tidy?
Frequently they are not. Their hair
is often loose and prone to tumble down
their gloves are sometimes ripped at
the finger tips, and often one or two
buttons are lacking from their boots.
The stock collar is often fastened on
with an nrdinary white pin that is very
obvious, and the veil has occasionally
hole over the nose or chin Our girl
is charming. But is she as careful as
she should be?
The other day l was making
morning call at friends house, and
they met another caller, a woman who
made a most agreeable impression
upon me. She was not elaborately
dressed, but har black tailor made
gown fitted her well, and there was not
a spot or speck of dust on it. l
knew that it had been brushed care
fully before she left her room. Her lin
en- collar and cuffs were snowy white
and did not twist or shift from their
proper places. Her gloves did not
wrinkle and were buttened neatly over
the wrists. Her shoes were like the
rest Of her attire, dainty, and her bon
net rested firmly and straight on soft
brown hair that, while wavy and fluffy
was neatly dressed and so securely
pinned that fancy high wind would
not have caused it to come down. A
thin veil covered fresh complexion
and bright face. The tout ensemble
gave one the idea Of daintiness and
delicate finish. In speaking of this
woman afterward to man who knows
her said:
"There is something about her APP
pearance that charms one. What is
the secret?"
II will tell you," he said. "She is
well groomed woman. There are
never any rough or loose ends about
her."
"You mean that she is tidy" said
to him.
"You call it tidy l say well groom
ed We both mean the same thing"
However one may express tin
sporting terms or with the old fash
ioned words the condition not well
worth striving for? Nothing is so de-
structive to illusion, so detrimental to
the fascinations of beauty or personal
charm, as the lack of this quality

MARLBOROUGH,

tuckian likes few things better than a
good speech, and with vice-president
a foreign minister, two or three gov
ernors, not to mention senator's, and
honorables, is it any time to be sparing
of eloquence? And, when the titled
orators have delighted their hearers
with the finest of sentiments, express
ed in the choicest of rhetoric, then
comes the ladies' hour The wives of
the colonels, majors, generals, captains;
governors, eX-governors, and the rest
hold ali impromtu levee till the after
noon shadows begin to lengthen, and
the tide Of humanity GIBBS home in
every direction. There are heartfelt
farewells, cordial handshakings hurried
exits to catch special trains, and the
rumble and rattle from the pixies by
which the country people are fastening
home. Long lines sunlight fall through
the atmosphere; the sun goes down; a
star or two come out in the western
sky; the electric lights flash through
the darkness; and the great day is
over!
''How did they treat your asked
one Indiana man of another, who had
just returned from the similar reunion
in Kentucky.
"Sir'' was the emphatic answer,
''they treated us well-and often.''
And doubtless the same report will
be given by many an orphan and vet
eran, as he narrates the days happen
ings.
There are many, even among ultra
south"rners, who object to these frequet
gatherings of Confederate soldiers
on the ground that they keep alive
feeling that would be better dead.
Said southern matron, with an &C
cent of despair: my husband belongs
to the United Confederate Veterans;
they are talking about forming the
Daughters of Veterans,and my daught-
ers want to join that And if they
each hold an annual reunion, it is time
to call halt right now. The next
thing will be the Wives of Veterans,
and the Sisters and the C)usins and
Aunts of Veterans"
There may be some narrow souls to
whom such occasions are resurrec-
ton of ancient hatreds and long past
strife; but, if so, these keep their ugly
secret well hidden, and to an unpre-
JUDGED outside observer it seems that
a day like this is but time when the
angel of memory troubles the waters
of life, and there is healing in the
spring.

WHAT WE INHERIT

We are not to blame for. We can
not be held responsible for the disposi-
tions and tendencies which we derive
from our ancestors, nor are we respon-
sible for the germs of disease which
may manifest themselves in our blood
as heritage from former generations.
But we are responsible if we allow
these germs to develop into serious
diseases which will impair our useful
ness and destroy our happiness. We
are responsible it we transmit to our
descendants the disease germs which it
is possible for us to eradicate by the
use of Hoods Sarsaparilla, the one true
blood purifier. This medicine has
power to make rich, red blood and es-
ablish perfect health in place of disease.

these bricks, which hold the glow as
long as coal, and burn without smoke,
emitting fine aroma besides.

A CONFEDERAT REUNION.
PASTOR FELIX.

A cloud-hecked sky, with now and
then burst of hot September sunshine.
A cool breeze blowing straight from
the low purple hills to the southwark.
Clouds of white dust rising from the
country roads and settling thick and
heavy on the autumn fields. Vehicles
of every kind rolling in from every di-
observation-disclosures wagons, two-horse
wagons, spring wagons, buggies, sur
reys, carriages, some new, some old,
and some looking like the "one-hoss
shay" just before its dissolution.
Black folks, white folks, poor folks,
rich folks, young folks, old folks, all
sorts and conditions of men, women,
and babies going to town to see the
big parade and welcome the Orphan
Brigade in its fourteenth annual re-
union. Imagine three or four circus
crowds roll into one, two or three
county-court days thrown in, with a
strong dash of the military pervading
the whole, and this is how the gather
ing looks to one who atches it from
the porch or balcony of some Kentucky
home.
Down in the square the crowd is
densest and livelitst. The surround
ing counties have turned out their en-
tire rural population, and whole fam
lilies have Travelled all night in order to
get to the reunion in time in the morn
ing. Their primitive-looking wagons,
drawn by patient oxen, are scattered
picturesquely around the square, and
the owners are ambling happily along
the streets, admiring the decorations
and flags, and observing confidentially
to each other that they ''never seen no
sich sights as that before" There are
miles of bunting and hundreds of flags.
The little park is crowded, and there
is no policeman to club people of the
grass. The fountain plays, and the
small boy is on hand with his banner
and his yell. Carriages whirl past, and
under the lace-trimmed parasols Of the
occupants you catch Il glimpse of dark
eyes, smiles, and the splendid colors OF
great bunchcs of late roses or early
chrysanthcmums. At intervals is
heard the rumble Of a special train, anc
crowds Of "orphans" and distinguish
ed guests come pouring from the de
pot. Such meeting and greeting-ano
treahny! Such handshaking, sncl
protlering Of hospitality, such hurry
ing to and fro as the divisions begin
to form. Rumors circulate that the
procession is coming. The opening
notes of the band are heard way off il
the distance:

'Simmon seeds an sandy bottom,

Look away! Dixie land
The old soldier who wore the gray
feels the tears start at the first notes O
