A Famous Dogs Feat.

Mrs. Thomas F. Bayard's famous
collie dog Rob Roy MacgregOr stopped
runaway horse near Delamore Place,
Wilmington, Del, on Tuesday, and
probably saved a woman and child
from serious injury.
The woman was driving light
wagon when the horse took fright and
plunged rapidly down the road, the
occupants Of the carriage screaming.
AS the horse dashed by Delamore
Place Rob Roy jumped from the yard,
and, barking loudly, leaped at the
bride of the horse. This he caught
in his teeth and held on suspended in
air. The maddened horse veered to
one side, and after going a short dis.
lance came to a standstill, and Rob
released his hold on the bride.
The woman jumped from the car
riags, patted Rob on the head as he
stood wagging his tail and with tongue
out. The child affectionately kissed
the dog, and then the woman continued
her journey, the horse Jogging away
peacefully. The neighbOrs who saw
the incident did not learn the woman
name.

Remedy For Hog Cholera.

The chief Of the bureau Of animal
industry, Agricultural Department.,
DR.. D. E. Salmon, has submitted to
Secretary Wilson report upon ex-
periments in the treatment of hogs for
hog cholera with anti-toxine serum.
This serum is made upon the same
principle as the anti-toXine Of diph-
liberia. 1t was first tested upon small
animals in the laboratory ard, being
found eficacious, was last fall tested
in Page county, Iowa, on several
herds of swine, containing altogether
27S animals.
Leaving out one herd, from which
definite returns as to cause Of death
could not be obtained, only 80 died
out of 244 animals treated, Of which
sc were sick. Consequently SIS per
cent of the animals in these herds
were saved. OF untreated herds kept
under observation during the period
referred to about s. per cent of the
animals died. DR.. Salmon believes
that, with experience, better quality
of serum can be prepared, and he has
no doubt that this percentage can be
maintained hereafter.

Cold in the KIondike.

According to a gentleman who has
Just escaped from the Klondike region
some things that happen are: A man
told me who had wintered up there
that it was so cold in January they
kept their fires over night by putting
them out in the air and letting them
freeze, and then thawed them out IN
the morning. He said he had seen
four men die of collie from eating whls-
key that was frozen so hard that 1t
wouldn't thaw inside of them. He
said the COWS gave icecream. He said
he knew a clerk in a hotel on the
Yukon that got rich selling diamonds
being nothing on earth but ice crystals
that did not thaw till after the clerk
got out of the country. He said ne
had seen a man fall off the roof of
barn and froze so stiff before he lit
that he broke in two before he hit
ground. He said he had seen smoke
freeze in chimney till the fire would
mt draw, and he knew of one case
where the smoke froze after it got
hundred feet up and fell back on the
house, knocking hole in the roof big
enough to drive yoke of steers
through. He said the reason the nights
were so long in that country was that
the dark got froze SO hard the daylight
couldn't thaw its way through in less
than six months.

The course Of Colonel Mansley was
CHARACTERISTIC from the first. When be
and his two friends rode through The
little village Of Aldine ON their way
home, it was in his power to brush
aside every threatening cloud and bring
peace and good will upon the excited
community. He had only to draw rein
and make known to the loiterers around
the place that the genuine Hank Boyer
had been arrested and was then on his
way to the county seat in charge of the
sheriff. The fact that his own father
had recognized the scamp and refused
to assist him would have placed the
identity of the young man beyond doubt.
And yet the colonel resolutely refused
to speak the word. Believing that had
taken refuge under his roof, he was
eager to defend me, and, as he expressed
1t, meant to teach the Doors lesson
they would remember all their lives.
In his stern wrath he scorned to &C.
knowledge the salutations Of his neigh.
bors, but rode forward, grim, determined
and silent, to his home. To use com.
mon expression, the veteran was spoil
ing for fight.
As for myself, I should have been
glad to withdraw when night came,

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Enowledss Of Housshsspdns Dssirahlsl
A Simply NaAs 8saeh-sou1
kalgre.

There 10 often considerable discussion
~ to whether knowledge Of domestic
science, Or, in plain language, house.
keeping, Is desirable for all women.
Most people, Of course, say that every
woman should know how to cook, etc.,
but there are others who bring up the
we'll known story Of the two girls. The
one devoted herself to domestic affairs,
only to marry rich man and pass the
rest of her Vie exempt from domestic
duties, while her sister, whose whole
attention had been given to higher
education, married poor man and gave
herself up to the cares Of her house and
family. There Is the general argument,
in answer to that, that the educated
girl had a we'll stored mind to draw
upon while she was unable to pursue
her studies and the domestic girl was
given an opportunity to broaden her
views. But q word from woman who
knows is worth . dozen general argu-
ments.
One Of these is the wife Of scientific
man and 10 herself pursuing line Of
scientific study and making original in
vestigations in addition to the aid she
gives her husband in his line Of work.
OF necessity she has not much time to
devote to household duties, but for this
very reason she continuously feels the
need of special education in domestic
science, which she did not receive.
'Iwould give great deal. she says,
"if I had been educated to be thorough
housekeeper. OF course keep house,
keep my house looking we'll, and see
that good table 10 set, but ! do not do
1t easily. am never absolutely sure
what 10 the right thing to do every
time. II only had that absolute knowl-
edge of housekeeping which would en-
able me to say. 'ThiS must be done at

tstion, I should be infinitely better of,
and my house, II not better, would be

Coloring For Candy.

A clever little schoolteacher, who is
an adept at the concoction Of delicious
homemade candies and cakes, has de-
vised a way Of obtaining pretty pink
coloring for her candies and frosting
that will bear passing on. She buys 5
cents worth of the bright red cinnamon
drops at the nearest reliable oonfeotion-
er's, puts them in cup. covers them
with water for a few moments, and,
hey, presto, half pint Of rosy coloring
that lends itself admirably to the SEM
blance of strawberries. watermelons or
roses. The little suspicion Of cinnamon
that clings to the ooloring is almost in
tangible, yet quite delightful, and the
beauty Of it all is that it is $50 easy"

Soup Maigre.

6o0P A0UAhA0s
The expression "soup maigre" means
a soup with meat stock, the basis being
milk, or, better still, cream and butter,
and this basis being built upon by vege-
tables or. fish. These "soups without
stock" are the favorite Lenten soups,
and they are also used in the summer,
because they are not heating to the
blood, like the soups made with heavy
beef or mutton stock, and which for
that very reason are needful in the win.
ter, and yet are very nourishing. These
soups are easily made, some Of them
very quickly, and are what have heard
housekeepers call emergency soups
that is, soups that can be made in from
ten minutes to half an hour If one has
eudden company arrive and needs some
thing to piece out the family dinner.
Soups maigre are made savory by the
judicioue addition Of seasonings. If any
of you were to ask me what consider.
ed the secret Of good cooking, should
say, Seasoning first, seasoning last and
seasoning all the time. "-Sallie Joy
White in Woman's Home Companion.
