Moro Castle.

Seeckeu
There is Moro castle at Havana
and one at San Juan, Porto Rico.
Many persons are curious to know why
the Spaniards have these two castles OF
the same name.
The word Moro in Spanish means
promontory, says the Atlanta Journal,
and these les are so named because
they are perehed upon commanding
elevations in the two cities.
The word has frequently been spell
ed Moro aud Is supposed rather gener.
ally to mean "the Moor" but the spell
ling and the Interpretation are incor-
rect. There is rocky plateau in Mex
lco which is also called Moro. and on
its vertical sides are inscriptions which
were cut by the early Spanish invaders
of that country. Moro castle, Havana
was once considered one of the most
powerful fortresses In the world, but il
is out of date now, and when the Is
inch guns of our warships are turned
loose on it, it will fall in short order,

Fish as Food.
2o1oated-

Selected.
1t has been frequently stated that
fish diet, by virtue of the phosphorous
which it contains, is pre-eminently
adapted to nourish the brain, and that
those who supsist on 1t largely are dis
tinguished for their brightness and in
tellectnality, says the. New. York Ledger.
1t Is perfectly true that a small percent
age of phosphorus enters into the COM
position of the healthy brain,. and
while it is also true that fish contains
more or less phosphorus that may and
probably does pass into the circulation,
it is yet to be proved either by theory
or by experience that diet OF fish IS
on the whole better adapted to supply
the waste of the brain than liberal
variety OF other allmentary substances,
and especially ot meats.
Fish is easy of digestion ana creates
little vascular excitement and conse-
quently forms light and wholesome
article of diet. Saltwater fish are the
best of any, their flesh is more solid,
more agreeab BILE and healthy, less ex-
posed to putrescence and less vlscld.
They possess these excellent qualities
when fresh. When salted, they have
all the properties of salt fish and con-
sequently its disadvantages.
Those fish which baye scales are in
general the most easily digested and
the best, and OF all these fish the fresh
herring appears to deserve the prefer
ence. The herring, Goldfish, turbot and
founder are perhaps the most dlgesti-
BILE and best of fish. Salmon and
mackerel, lobster and most other kinds
| of shelIfish are more difficult OF dlges
ton. The mode of cooking fish is OF
considerable Importance. Frying them
in oil or lard is an Objectionable pro-
cess. In general the process of boiling
Is best adapted to render them whole
some. Stewed fish should be avoided
by the dyspeptic. Acid sauces and
pickles render fish more wholesome fol
the stomach, while butter has a ten
dency to prevent digestion, while spice
and salt used in moderate quantities
facilitate the digestive process. Ont
OF the best sauces that can be used witt
fish is lemon juice.

Hamilton's Duellng Pistol.
Chicago Timss-Herald.

Chicago Timss-Herald.
In the parlor of the Roy homestead,
in Superior, Wis, is the pistol with
which Alexander Hamilton fought
Aaron Burr on the banks of the Hud-
son in the year 1906, and the mate Of
the weapon with which Aaron Burr
took Hamiltons lite ON that occasion.
The owner of the relic is Margaret A.
Roy, widow of Vincent Roy. Mr.. Roy
was one of Superior's pioneers, and over
20 years ago, upon the occasion OF a
visit to the town of a party OF southern
and eastern speculators, the pistol was
presented to him by ex-senator J. B.
Beck of Kentucky in return for favor
conferred by Mr.. Roy. Mr.. Beck re-
celved the weapon from relative OF
Colonel James Boyle, and subsequently
loaned 1t to friend, who used it dur
ing the civil war. Colonel Boyle re-
ceived the pistol, together with Its
mate, from Judge Van Ness, who was
Burr's second during the duel with
Hamilton.
The Burr pistol, which is an exact
duplicate of the other, is now owned
by Louis Marshall, son of Colonel
Thomas Marshall of Vermont. It has
changed bands many times, and finally
got into the hands of Colonel Marshall
after passing through the Mexican and
civil wars. Both weapons were marked
by Colonel Van Ness to insure ldentif'
ication. the Burr pistol with an tx
to signify that it had killed one man.

Poultry Notes.

For next winter layers push the
early pullets now.
Eggs without shells come from over
feeding and lack of lime.
Plenty of milk for the fowls is good
substitute for meat.
Fowls that have the run of the farm
now need but little grain.
Common soil if dry is about the
best material for the dust bath.
Adding a pan iull of fresh ashes
to the dust bath occasionally will be
beneficial.
Variety in diet promotes health, and
health produces activity of the repro.

When rightfully fed chicken
should weigh pound at six weeks
old and two pounds when ten weeks

Unless there is some variety of food
the appetites of the hens can not be
