Got His Deserts.

One Of the rough brutes who thinks
It is fun to come up behind a friend
and strike him hard between the shout
Gers or On the back Of the neck, merely
as cordial form of greeting, met with
his just deserts in the corridor of no.
tel on Chestnut st. few days ago. He
thought he recognized friend and
gave him a hard punch in the back,
saying: Hello, Jack, how are you?"
But it wasn't Jack; it was stranger,
and an athletic one, too. The blow
nearly took him off his feet, but he
turned quickly and shot his fist on the
nose of the other man with a force
that brought forth torrent of blood.
The porters helped the cordial man to
the Mushroom. where he spent the next
half hour endeavoring to stop the
flow of gore and in making resolutions
not to be so exceedingly cordial in the
future. The athletic man merely re-
marked to friend that he had met
the cordial stripe before. -Philadelphia

day a delegation of ladies visited the
parsonage, and presented the preacher
with package containing some Very

that he should be reduced to half a

accepting the shirts with thanks, "that
he was not literally reduced to a half
shirt, although he wore only half on

AMERICAN HElRESS IN PARIS.

kmpecunious Titled Par:stans Drew Lots
to Decide Who should Marry Her.
Lillian Bell, in letter from Paris to
the Ladies' Home Journal, writes that
the most shameless thing in all Eu-
rope is the marriage question, and
proceeds to narrate the experiences of
rich American girl who came to Par
of her wealth she was invited every
where by mothers of manageable
sons, but being unable to speak French
was not much of a success. She went
to convent to learn French, and was
shown much attention by the Duchess
de Z, who was determined that her
son should marry her. Suddenly, to
the amazement of everybody, the heir
sss sailed for America without a word
Of warning. The Duchess was furious.
You must follow her. she said to her
son. we cannot let so much money
escape The son said he would be
hanged if he went to America, or if
he would marry such a monkey, and
as for her money, she could go any,
where she pleased with it. or words to
that effect. So that ended the affair
Of the Marquis de C.. When the
other impecunious young mobiles heard
that the Duchess no longer had any
claims upon the Americans money
they got together and said, Somebody
must marry her and divide with the
rest. We can't all marry her, but we
can all have share from whoever
does. Now we will draw lots to see
who must go to America and marry
her. The lot fell to the Baron de
x, but he had no money for the
journey. So all the others raised
what money they could and loaned it
to him, and took his notes for it, with
enormous interest, payable after his
marriage. He sailed away, and witnin
eight months he had married her, but
he has not paid those notes; his wife
won't give him the money!

Broad Leaf In Grain.

No good farmer wants to see young
small grain such as oats or barley
start out with unusually broad and
dark green leaves. A somewhat
lighter shade pleases him better, for
there will be less danger that the straw
or grain will break down from over
weight of straw, in which case it is al
nest sure to rust. Nature in part
provides against this by drawing heav-
lily from water in the soil, so that to-
wards the time of ripening the plant
will be pinched by lack of moisture.
A dry time for week or two before
harvesting, as well as at harvesting,
is therefore an advantage to all small
grain crops. After the grain heads
out it is rarely injured by lack OF
Water

The high price that butter brings
Turing the winter months often tempts
ihe dairyman to experiment with meth
DDS for keeping summer-made butter
over to the season of high prices. Pre-.
servatives without number are recon-
imended, but it is extremely difficult tc
carry the summer product over until
winter and have it retain its flavor
Cold storage, when the temperature
can be kept at thirty-eight degrees, is
the only reliable method by which but
ter may kept, and even this method,
to be successful, requires peculiar care
in the manufacture of the butter. II
must be made of young cream and be
churned as soon as it reaches the frst
state of acidity. The less buttermilk
left in the butter, the better. The
preserving process comes in packing
the butter so as to exclude all air be-
fore it is put in cold storage. To &c
complish this the package must be
soaked in brine, lined with parchment
paper, the butter packed in solidly
with parchment paper on the top and
dry salt over this. These are the
main points, and the dairyman must
decide for himself whether his market
will warrant the expense anl trouble
necessary to keep summer-made but
ter until winter.

One Of the curious Cretan customs

results is the cessation of all feuds, en-
nifty and rancor. 1t Is carried out rs
follows: A number of individuals
choose young girl. who must be pref
ty-no difficult matter in Crete. They
inform her parents of their Intention,
and the needful consent Is never with
held. Then priest is sent for and told
to begin the ceremony. He takes
very long girdle and Joins all the men

which the young girl is placed. Then

tion to all present. The moment he
pronounces the last amen the circle and
Its center stand In the relation of broth.
ers and sister to each other to all re-
ligious and social intents and purposes.
Each and every one Of the males Is
bound In honor-and a Cretan knows
no more sacred obligation--to protect
that girl throughout her life, but none
of them can ever take her for his wife.
She is and remains their sister In the
eyes Of the priest and people to the end
of her days. But they must also stand
by and succor each other. and II needs
be at the cost Of life itself.
