for grain inspected out of q mixing ele-
vator as he can: for the like grade
bought on the track, and this for the
reason that under the inspection out
from mixing houses they are compelled
to receive the lowest quality within the
grade, or as: he termed it, the skin
grade. This accounts for the fact that
the quotations for >future delivery
out Of warehouses in Minneapolis
are invariably below the track quota
tons. As the prices for future delivery
always affect the market, it follows
that by this system Of mixing. which
has been permitted without restraint
heretofore, the farmer who raises and
markets good grade of grain on the
whole, receives pay for only skin
quality of that particular grade.
Whether the practice of handling grain
through mixing houses can or should be
prevented entirely is . question that it
10 not necessary to discuss, but it is the
settled and determined policy of the
Board Of Appeals and the Inspec-
ton Department that hereafter grades
ond inspection will be applied
with the same ngidness and with the
same care n the inspection out Of
wheat from the mixing elevators as ii
the inspection Of the producers grain on
the track. This, and this alone will dc
full justice to the producers and main
tain the integrity and good name Of
Minnesota wheat. i z.S:

In some countries curious customs
prevail in regard TO selecting a name
for the baby. A Hindoo baby is named
when it is twelve days old, and usually
by the mother Sometimes the father
wishes for another name than that Sc

lamps are placed over the Two names,
and the name over which the lamp
burns the brighter is the one given
TO The child.
In an Egyptian family the parents
choose a name for their baby by light

they give a name, one OF the three
belonging always TO scme dignihed

Freshening Pillows.

Perhaps few people understand that
feather pillows should be occasionally
freshened. In summer the pillows
and holsters from the various beds In
the house should every few weeks be
laid in the hot sunshine. They must
remain there for five or six hours, and
be turned once during that time. This
process Of summing dries and. as 1t were,
"fuffs" every feather, making each
stand by itself. Anyone who has not
tried this will be surprised, on using
pillow thus aired, to note its In
creased softness and elasticity. The
Germans recognize the benefit of this
practice when .hey sun" the huge
feather beds upon which they are ac-
customed to sleep.-Harper's Bazaar.

Hungarian Gypsy Minstrel..

The gypsy minstrels form caste by
themselves. Their appearance is al
ways more swarthy than that of other
Hungarian musicians, their dress is
sometimes purposely fantastic, and
their manner of life is far more boz
hemian than the most liberal-minded
artistic would care to own to-, Every
hotel and restaurant in Buda-Pesth
possesses its gypsy band, and the
method of payment is as free and easy
as the music itself and their life. The
hotel keeper is not bound by any con-
tract; but at various intervals
throughout the performance one of
his gypsies takes dinner plate and
goes round among the various guests

In constant contact with work; which
is certainly an enemy to their dainty
appearance.
II size and shape do not please you.
1t is no excuse for neglect; and lack OF
time is very unreasonable plea to
urge for so small matter.
Wash them frequently at night in
corn meal, and apply little sweet oil
or vaseline. This will effectnally pre-
vent roughness.
Do not use knife or sharp point in
cleaning the nails, but accomplish ii
with soap and brush or some blunt In
strument. Pinch back the skin at the
base with towel when the fingers are
wet, and never scrape 1t with any OF
the little sharp instruments in your
manicure set. Ink stains, and almost
all others, the fumes Of burning sui

dip match in water and rub the stain
