How to XIII Them.

Although every housekeeper may not
oe a member of band of mercy or hu-
name society, she can help on the good
work if she will practice some Of the
society's rules. For example, let her
bear in mind that crabs to be properly
killed should before boiling be thrust
through the mouth and body with a
sharp steel at one blow.
When lobster is required, insert a
narrow bladed knife into the third joint
of the tail, severing the spinal cord
This will cause instant death and is
much less cruel than to put it into the
water alive, especially if it is not boil
ing, as the lobster then suffers slow,
lingering death.
Terrapin also should be mercifully
killed before being cooked
The eel tribe is said to be terrible
sufferer from mans inhumanity to fish.
So difficult is it apparently to kill eels
that people have even ceased to try to
kill them at all. If their heads We're cut
off before they We're otherwise handled,
they would at once be out of misery. -

Tested Her Strength,

Charley NJ. was a, home from college,
spending his summer vacation. tbs
MS were people fairly well to do and
Charley was passing the forenoon very
comfortably on the cool and shady
veranda.
Down by the barn yard fence, in a
neglected place, a crop of strong,
healthy weeds had sprung up and
fourished under the summer sun. Left
unmOlested in the rush of work on the
farm, they We're fast becoming blot
on the otherwise orderly premises, and
that morning Charley's father-the
"old man"-had sailed forth and was
now making a vigorous assault upon
the patch.
Suddenly he left off his work and
came up into the yard. Taking a
broomstick which happened to be lean
ing against the veranda. he laid it on
the grass, then turned to Charley and
said:
"Git down here and see if you can
pull me over that stick"
He held in his hand small chain, in
each end Of which was inserted stout
stick to serve as handle. Then the
tug began and developed into quite a
spirited contest. But at last Charley
succeeded in dragging the old man
across the line.
''There, that'll do," he said, dropping
his end Of the chain. Il guess you've
got strength enough to pull them
weeds down there by the barn."
II never said word" said Charley,
telling the story afterward, but before
noon there weren't any weeds left
standing."-Youth's Companion.

Heat of the Earth,

It is well known that a great deal of
effort has been put forth in all parts of
the world where mining is carried on
to great depth, to determine as sat-
isfactory average the increase of the
earths temperature with depth. A few
years ago it was commonly assumed to
be degree for each 80 feet in depth,
but more recently deeper workings un-
der other conditions have led to the be-
lief that it is something over 200 feet
for each degree of increased tempera-
ture. 1t is admitted however, that the
depth to which mining has thus far
been carried is so shallow as compared
with the great distance to the center of
the earth that it is really not known
what the average increase of tempera-
ture with depth is Observations made
at the various places have been where
the surrounding conditions were SO diff
ferent that the tests We're not satisfac-
tory, as, for example, those made in
the Lake Superior and Nevada regions,

1t is almost impossible to imagine an
ignorance so dense as that said to be
possessed by the average French con-
script from the provinces. Did it not
exist, however, his comrade from the
city, who writes about garrison life,
would hardly have told about it. One
day fiery adjutant questioned
Jacques, the provincial:
"Come" he said, you are French
mana soldier; do you know why you
are here instead of working in the
fields? l ask you why you are here-a
soldier? You give no answer. Have
you never heard Of the Germans"
"No, my adjutant."

sion"
"No, my adjutant."

Occupations Affect Faces.

IA mans occupation or condition
has more to do with making his face
than most people think" observed a
gentleman who is somewhat judge Of
character. "Intellectual pursuits, like
the studies Of the scholarly profession,
when coupled with temperate and good
moral habits of life brighten the face
and give the person a refined and su
perior look Magnanimity of nature or
the love Of study and art will make a
bright, glad face, but contrary to this
a man may have face that does not
please anybody because Of love of self
to the exclusion of others, notwith-
standing his learning and worldly
shrewdness. Soldiers get hard, severe
look; reporters look inquisitive; mathe-
maticians look studious; judges look
grave, even when off the bench; the
man who has had domestic trouble looks
all broken up.
can example of the ludicrous side of
this subject is to see third class law
yer stalking around a police court look
ing as wise as an owl. The business
makes the face, I say. There's the mer-
chants face, the ministerial face, the
lawyers face, the doctors face, the
hoodlum's face, all so distinct each
from the other and singly that seldom
fail to recognize those callings shining
through the faces. And what city bred
boy cannot recognize genuine farmer
the moment he sees him on the street 2"

COu1dn't Keep Him Out.

Billy Gaylor, who died at Hot Springs
in 1895. He was a most persistent fell

Of little story, about the last incident
of his career. He had been assigned by
a certain Chicago daily to interview an
eminent bishop about schism in the
church. The bishop didn't want to talk
and wouldn't see him, but Gaylor
bribed servant to let him into the hall
and waylaid the dignitary as he was
coming through. He was ordered out
for his pains, but next day he pene-
trated the house again on some pretext
or other and was again fired.
''He repeated the exploit three or
four times with similar results, and at
last the bishop coming home late at
night, found Billy sitting in his study
reading the Bible. Nobody could ex-
plain how he got in, but the prelate
wilted and told him what he wanted to
know on condition that he would go
away and stay away.
"Shortly after poor Gaylor got gal

"The bishops eyes twinkled. He
loved joke. No doubt he is, he re-
piled gently. I don't think they could

CURIOUS CUCKOOS.

The cuckoo is generally known only
as bird with very 1nonotonous note
a continuous cry of "cuckoo, cuckoo"
over and over again. Among naturalists,
however, the cuckoo is known as bird
that never builds nest for itself, but
takes advantage of one already built by
some more industrious bird.
There is a good deal of the cuckoo
about these advertisers who, instead of
making a success of their own, seek to
profit by the success which some one
else has made with much effort and
labor. 1t is so with those limitations of
DR.. Pierce's methods, by which free
medical advice is offered, although those
who make the offer are without qualified
medical ability or experience. And the
cry raised in some cases of "woman,
woman, woman write to woman " makes
the resemblance to the cuckoo even
stronger
There is as far as known no qualified
woman physician connected with any
proprietary medicine establishment, and
none therefore competent to give medi-
cal advice. 1t is certain that there is no
one, man or woman, who can offer free
medical advice backed by such knowl-
edge and experience as is possessed by
DIR. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting ply
eician to the Worlds Dispensary, Buffalo,
N. Y. For over thirty years DR.. Pierce
has made a specially of the treatment
of diseases peculiar to women. In that
time he has treated over half-a-million
women, ninety-eight per cent. of whom
have been perfectly cured. Every sick
woman is invited to consult DR.. Pierce
by letter absolutely without charge or
cost. Every letter is held as strictly pri-
vate and sacredly confidential, and all
answers are mailed securely sealed in
perfectly plain envelopes bearing no
printing whatever upon them.

All at once Jock wondered why no

and, hearing sounds Of putting and

vainly trying to lift the wheel off
sheaf of corn.
The perspiration was streaming
