Talking about cows, = said Andy
Henderson. Z. I really think that / had
one Of the most peculiar experiences
with the animals in question that ever
befell citizen Of west Texas. It was
soon after I went to El Paso, some ten
years ago, and before had got familiar
with the vagaries Of the Ell Paso eli
mate. HI
Z had settled on very pretty ranch
some miles out Of the progressive from
tier city and was doing nicely until
decided to go into the buster business
I sent east for a dozen fine Jersey cows
and began operations. Well, the cows
came on, and u hustled the butter bust
ness from the jump Things progressed
nicely for month, when the weather
grew very warm and the atmosphere
very dry. The Rio Grande dwindled
until roach could have waded across
Every bit Of moisture disappeared, but
this did not affect me, because I had q
fine artesian well on the ranch and
plenty Of water. I observed, however,
that my cows were losing milk day by
day, until at last they were perfectly
dry. I was astounded, for they had
plenty Of feed and lots Of water from
the WE'LL I couldn't understand it and
determined to investigate.
4 got up an hour before daylight and
examined the cows, and, to my aston
ishment, I found the udders Of the cows
heavy with milk. I did not milk the
the animals, but simply watched and
waited developments Day daWned and
the cows lazily meandered into the pas
ture, and I followed. The sun came up
and with the sun came the terrible dry
ness, but it didn't feaze me in the least
What knocked me out was the sight Of
my cows udders. They were growing
smaller and smaller as I looked until
they were as flaccid as punctured tire.
Then tumbled.. The dryness of the at
mosphere simply evaporated the milk
through the walls Of the udder.
{. .'What did I do? Why, I vanished
the milking apparatus of the beasts and
the milk couldn't ooze through the
flesh. That stopped it. New Orleans

spending Money.

It is an excellent thing to give chill
dren as soon as they arrive at about Ia
years, or even before, little allowance
for spending money and an account
book. Show them how to keep an ac-
countjof small expenditures and make
it q condition that they do SO if they
wish to receive their allowance. There
is no instruction more necessary to chill
dren than instruction in the wise man
agement Of. money. Children should be
taught early what true economy is and
to exercise their Judgment their
fancy-in making purchases. A little
instruction now, and experience il need
be. of the genuine discomforts Of .extrav-
agance may save them from much suf-
fering in after years. - New York

GRAVE OF PATRICK HENRY.

Not In Richmond, hut In CharIotts,
Where He Lived. L sts
Every now and then wesee in some
newspaper the query, s Where is Pat
rick Henry bnried?" and tourists in
Richmond constantly ask to be shown
his grave, with the mistaken idea that
it is in that city, where much Of his
public career was passed. Few people
comparatively know that the man who
acquired the title Of = The Tongue Of
the Revolution" lies in quiet grave
on the estate in Charlotte county where
he formerly lived Over it is marble
slab inscribed with one line, .eHis fame
his best epitaph. = 9..s
The estate lies on Staunton river, 38
miles from the town of Lynch burg, near
the border line which separates Char
lotte and Campbell counties. It derived
its name Of Red Hill from the peculiar
color Of the soil in that vicinity. When
Patrick Henry bought the place, it com
prised about $500 acres The land is
rich-there was saying in the neigh
borhood that poor land and Henry could
never be mentioned together corn
grows there as high as a man on horse
back there is a general air of smiling
fields and abundant prosperity. Its sit
uation in early times was very remote
Neighbors were few, one of the nearest
being the celebrated John Randolph Of
Roanoke, who lived in his chosen soli-
tude Is miles away.
Red Hill is now owned by Henry's
grandson, William Writ Henry, a
clever, cultivated gentleman Of the
"old school, He. has in his possession
some most interesting relics Of his cele-
brated grandfather, including the desk
he always used, which still contains his
letters from Lafayette, Washington,
Madison and other great men of early
days; the large, round backed chair in
which Patrick Henry died and a portrait
of, him by the elder Sully, under which
hangs yellowed slip of paper, signed
by Chief Justice John MARSHALL and
several others Of his friends, testif ying
to the faithfulness of the likeness.

German Scientist Shows How This May
Be Accomplished. r.
It is not generally known that sealed
letters may in many cases be read with
out opening the envelopes or doing them
the least injury. 1t was discovered by a
German psychologist by the use of an
embry oscope, or egg glass, that the
shells of eggs were Of very unequal
thickness. - ~
It occurred to him to make expert
ments in order to ascertain how many
leaves of ordinary letter or official pa
per must be laid above and below a
written leaf in order to make it illegible
to highly sensitive eye in the direct
sunlight. He found that after he had
rested his eye in dark room for 10 or
Is minutes he cold read piece of writ
ing over the mirror Of the embryoscope
that had been covered with eight layers
of paper.
He called in other observers to con-
firm this. The letters, however, that
could thus be deciphered were written
in dark ink on one side of the paper

together, and especially If there had
been crossing, it was hard to make out
the drift Of the writing, and there are
some kinds Of writing which, when
folded twice or thrice, admit too little
light for the purpose of decipherment.
In this way possibly many Of the per-
formances of clairvoyants' may be ex-
planned By means of the egg glass it
is, as a rule, easier to make out the con-
tents of letter or telegram without the
slightest tampering with the envelope
than it is to detect the movements Of
the embryo in the egg. ST. @.s...45
Suppose the writer Of billet, the
contents Of which are known only to
himself, let's it out Of his hand and loses
sight of it for five minutes. It may be-
