of refreshments was on hand and
much sstonishment and mirth was
created by the unexpected capacity
of some of the young people to con-

the evening won the highest opinion
of all by their social qualities.

Many dairymen and others who milk
COWS for profit believe that when a COW
reaches the age Of or s her useful
days are over, and that she should be
replaced By one younger, says writer
In the New York Tribune. But, other
things being equal, this is a mistake.
A COW that has been well cared for,

all seasons OF the year, Is better and

words, she Is in her prime. and she viii
continue in this condition several years.
and will not be considered an old COW
until fourteen or fifteen years have
passed. Cows with first calves-at >
or years-are generally Improbable
In their milk yield, and one really good
COW between Z and years old will pay
a better revenue than two that are per
forming their first years duties In the
dairy herd. and she VIII probably con
sumo but little more food than one OF
the younger ones. This fact Is worthy
the consideration of those who are

German Rewriting the Plays In Eliza

DIR. Eduard Engel has written the fol-
lowing letter 70 one OF the Berlin news
papers.
'1n a lecture ! delivered some ycar8

pliers. who use Stolze's system. I sug-
gested that those accurately acquainted
with the oldest English shorthand sys-
tens Of the sixteenth century should
try TO ascertain whether many OF the
deficiencies OF the text OF Shakespeare
might not be explained by stenograph-
ic mistakes. The idea was suggested to
me by the old and weIl-founded conjec-
ture Of Shakspcarean scholars that the
oldest copies OF shakspeare's plays-the
so-called quartos-were printed from
stenographic notes. taken IN the thea
ter. and that many OF the unintelligibili-
ties OF the text are due to this. Ny
suggestion fell ON fruitful soil. and

OF articles on Shakespeare and the be
ginnings OF English stenography, Herr
Kurt Dewischeit has proved beyond the
shadow OF doubt that the qnarto edl-
lions OF Shakspeare's plays were pira-
ted editions printed from stenographic
notes, that the stenogTaphic system
used was that OF Timothy Bright, who
was born in 1850. and that fnnumerabls
mistakes in the quartos, innumerabie
contradictions between them and the
first authorized folio editions, can be al
once and most simply explained by the
defects Of that stenographic system and
the indexterfty of the stenographers Of
that time. Herr pewischeit has con
frmed my conjecture almost beyond
