There is great deal Of interest in the

have their cows inspected. Just what the
doctors intend to do to force the recalci-

public, but they say they are sure to win

visor Talcott whom they accuse of jobbing

One thing hat hurts the DELINQUENT
dairymen a great deal IS the fact that
those who do not have their cattle ex
amined are practically on the black list.
There is no attempt 10 force them to COM
ply with the inspection custom, but the
fact that the names of all dairymen who
comply are published is giving those on
the published list a great advantage in
milk sales. This advantage promises to
become greater as time passes, owing to
the fact that the next step will probably
be to publish in more conspicuous form
the names of those who are selling milk
from cattle that have never been inspected.

How Noble Lord Was Treated by the
House When He Aro,e to Speak.
The late Lord Denman was a very curl
Gus example OF the survival of the name
and even the rese m blance when every
thing else has gone. HIS father was
great counsel, who was able to withstand
all the temptations of the court and of
society in the great trial between George
~ and his wife, Caroline of Brunswick;
and afterward he was one of the best Chief
Justices the country ever had. In his son
there was 4 curious and almost hideous
resem blance to him. There were the same
strong and finely chiseled r oman nose.
the same long, Weii-shaped face, the
same great height and the same fine
ness OF figure; the voice was also the
same sonorous and melodiou, organ
and there was even a resemblance in
the very clothes; for the son adhere
rigidly to the style OF dress that used to
be the mode in tie days of his fathers
youth: he wore curious necktie OF manv
folds, long coat which in cut and CO or
was like survival, and ther- was about
the whole figure a curious old world air,
not without its dignity, but Infinitely mel
ancholy. For this outward rese n bance
was but the rese m blance of the shell; the
oid LORD Denman was there in externals
and IN the body, but the spirit was gone.
The Lord Denman this generation knew
would be harShly described if he were
said to be insane, for he was not violent,
and never offended any more than he
hurt anybody; but he was certainly of
weak, or at least eccentric. intellect He
attended every sitting of the House of

GU, as visitor, would be surprised per-

every Peer in the house began at once to

voice as he could, until the usually
somber and spectrally silent assem-
bly, became positively as noisv as
the grasshoppers In a big field. When
you looked at the venerable figure with
the hooked nose and heard the meloGious
voice, you were positively shocked that

choice IN the matter. Lord Denman al

there was 20 method by which he could
