Preserved Quinces.
New York Tribune.

Wash the fruit thoroughly, pare and
place the parings in a separate kettle
for jelly. Cut out the core and quar-
ter the fruit, dropping the pieces in
cold water to prevent them from turn
ing dark color. Place two layers of
the pared fruit into preserving kettle
and cover with cold water; boil over
Il slow fire until the fruit is tender
when done put the pieces on Il platter.
Strain the water in which they have
been boiled and add to it three-quar-
ters OF a pound of sugar for each pint
OF juice; stir this gently for ten min
utes; skim, add the fruit and simmer
for 20 minutes longer; then take out
the fruit carefully to prevent it from
being broken. Put the preserve jars
into pan of boiling water and then
begin to fill them with fruit, one piece
at a time. When filled pour over the
juice. When the water in the pan is
cool the jars are ready to seal. Apples
cen be used with the ounces, and will
give 4 pleasant flavor, but the apples
must be removed from the kettle at
least ten minutes before the ounces,
as they do not require as long time
to cook

A Chicago Dun'S Wrinkle.

"Spcaking of collecting bills" sait
the man from the West, We have &
most effective way in Chicago There
instead OF young men they employ
young women. once tried it my.
self and it worked like magic. A fcl,
low by the r.,me of Green owed me a
small bill, Sl7 or SO. 1t seemed i'm
possible to make him pay it, SO / en-
gagged the services OF pretty and
stylish young lady. l sent her around
to his Office. He was out. She called
again. He was still out, nothing
daunted her, she called Il third and
fourth time. The fourth time he was
in, but he firmly refused to pay the
bill.
Look here. Mr.. Greene" said the
girl. | will make proposition to
you. If you pay five cents a day on
this bill l will call and collect that
amount until you have paid in full.
But Green was a hard party. He
again refused and the girl left the
office apparently crestfallen. The
next day she did not call at his Office
but she did call at his house. The
door was opened by the servant.
Is Mr.. Green in?" asked the young
woman.
1" No ma'an.
"The girl left, but it seems that the
servant duly reported the call OF the
pretty and stylish young woman who
was so anxious to see Mr.. Green to his
wife. The next day when the young
woman came, the wife hung over the
banister, taking peep at the caller
on her own account. The young
woman asked if Mr. Green was in.
No ma'am" answered the servant,
but his wife is" The wife told her
to say this of course.
"His wife" stammered the girl
"Why has Mr.. Green wife?"
The wife hanging over the banisters
heard this. She turned pale and
gasped for air, while the girl, seem
ingly very much distressed and con-
fused at her discovery, went down the
steps and into the street. 1t is i'm
possible to tell just what happened al
that house that night, whether poker:
or curling irons were buried, or the
furniture torn from its foundations
and flung madly about, or the roo
was raised skyward; but one thing ]
do know-the next day Green promptly
paid the money. And the girl didn',
call at his Office for it either. He
came around and handed me tho
money himself, and he seemed to
think he was getting off easy at that.

BUY INDIAN GIRLS.
POlysamy is Fiagrantly Prac-
ticcd iu Il. G..

|
J ticcd iu Il. C..
Robert Stead Dunn, a graduate Of
Harvard, has spent five months on the
| Edmonton trail in the wilds OF British
Columbia to study life in the primi-
tive stage and get a knowledge of the
country. He makes some rather
startling statements, one being that
the white people in this section of the
country buy Indian girls like so many
chattels and that polygamy is flag
rantly pIacticcd. From % to fifty
blankets is the price usually paid for
an Indian girl; n rancheree belle may
be secured for the latter price. Mr..
Dunn says the Catholic missionaries
have converted most OF the Indians in
the Fort Graham district to Chris
tianity. Recently Father Morricc-
he tells the story on himself-issucd
instructions to converted Indians that
all who had more than one wife must
choose one and put away the rest
that polygamy would not be allowed.
Chief Wanetla treasured the traditions
OF his tribe that the bigger the chief
the more wives he should have, and
after some hesitation he declared that
he would continue to live with his
four spouses but still be a good Catho.
lie. This was impossible and Father
Morrlce communicated him. For a
time the ostracised Indian brooded
alone with his wives and his spirit was
sore distressed. Then a happy idea
struck him. Surreptitiously securing
a cross from the Mission he tied it on
the top of his tent and with some pur-
lolned holy water sprinkled the tent
and christened it Wanetla's Church.
He then issued proclamation de-
manding that all his friends and rela.
tions should come and worship ac-
cording to the Christian faith at his
church. His proclamation met with
considerable success and the simple
minded Indian keeps his quartette of
mistresses and worships in his own
peculiar way with his wives relations,
his own relations and his friends.

Weights and Measures.

When we smile at the excessive con-
servation OF the English in refusing to
adopt decimal system of money. and
sticking to their inconvenient reckon
ing in pounds, shillings and pence, are
we sure that we are not throwing
stones through our own glass house?
How many ounces are there in a
pound? Twelve of one kind in one
sort of pound, sixteen of another
kind in other sort. Three feet to a
yard; five and half yards to rod.
Thirty-two quarts in o bushel. An
acre cannot be made into perfect
square, but is piece of ground ten by
sixteen rods, making forty-three
thousand, five hundred and sixty
square feet. A cubic yard contaius
nine cubic feet.
These illustrations show what a
waste of time and energy there is in
converting our own weights and
measures from one unit to another.
1t is all needless waste, as we know
from the ease with which we deal with
our money unit.
Our readers will perhaps be tired of
being told in all the civilized world,
England, Russia and the United
States are the only countries which do
not use the metric system for all pur-
poses. If we are asked why we do
not use it we cannot reply that our
method is better. We can give no
better excuse than that we are too
lazy to conform to system which is
as far superior to that we employ as
the dollars and cents OF our money
are more convenient than the British
pounds, shillings and pence.
