The Trading Rat.

OF all curious animals which man
has come across and studied probably
none can compare with kind Of rat
found in the Rocky mountains. Though
for a long time well known to trappers
and lumbermen. il is only lately that
any naturalist has studied these peculiar
little beasts.
Although called rat this little ami
NAL is larger than an ordinary rat, with
BODY eight inches long. 1t is very
pretty creature, with soft gray fur and
a squirrellike tail. easily famed and 6
delightful pet. The trappers long ago
gave it the name Of the trading rat, y
from its curious habit of never stealing
anything without putting something II
its place.

FOR MAKING BEEF TEA.
There Are Many Methods. But Here
 Are the Best.

The first of the methods here given makes surely a genuine extract of beeT
 containing all the strengthening prop
 critics and the full nourishment of the
 meat. If the stomach of the invalid is
 quite weak. this extract is not given in
 it's full strength, but it is diluted with
 hot water until it is of the strength de
 sired by the physician. In making this
 tea or extract always select the juiciest
 part of the beef quite without regard
 to it's tenderness. Indeed, the tenderer the meat is. the less juicy it will be found The lower part of the round is
 usually found to be the best for beef tea It must be absolutely free from fat, only the lean being available. CRt the beef into quarter-inch dice shaped pieces, and put them into q wide mounthed bottle and set it on a stand of some kind in a kettle of cold water. This is to raise the jar and let the water under it, so that the glass will not be on the hot bottom of the kettle, as it would almost to certainty break unless it was thus protected. Set the kettle over the fire and heat it gradu- ally. When it comes to a boil, keep it gently simmering for several hours, until the meat is perfectly white, look ing like pieces of India rubber, all the JdlOC OSAI4S5 CAlIoCl0u Iueil SlI oIu Oul the juice, press it all out from the pieces of meat, and season to taste with salt. To make the tea more quickly. cut one half pound of the juicy round, freed from all fat, into small pieces, season with a salt spoonful of salt, press 1t with wooden potato masher, and let it stand in a covered bowl for half an hour. Pour off the juice, and heat, but do not boil it. Serve it immediately without straining. The salt will draw out only a portion of the juice from the meat, so a beef tea may be made from the meat after the juice has been poured off the first time by adding one cupful of cold water to it and letting it stand for couple of hours, then strain off the water, pressing the meat to get out all the juice, heat it, and you will have very palatable cup of tea a lit tie less strong than the first, but good notwithstanding. - Woman's Home

GOLDEN KEY TO HAPPINESS.

The woman who knows how to keep silence has in her possession the golden key that unlocks one of the doors to secret happiness It is hard sometimes not to speak. You know how it is. You are with a dear friend whose affection and loyalty you do not doubt, and in one of the ungGarded moments you are led to the extreme of confidence, telling some thought, some hope, some belief or aspira ton which before has been hidden in your soul, scarcely whispered to yourself. yet as vivid and real to you as though it were sentiment with the life of it's own full hIlment. Your friend does not compre- bend. treats it lightly, and goes away onto some topic far removed. You have an instant sense of betrayal, and a sort of resentment toward the friend whom for the moment you think has failed you. It is you who are to blame for expecting more of your friend than she was capable of giving.-Woman' Home Companion.

Before it on the floor the blanket was stretch ed, and in one corner rested a lot of Chinese writing materials and paper.
