HOW TO WALK UP STAIRS.
When an Equal Distribution of the
Body's Weight Is Secured It's
an Easy Task.

A physician who declared that few
people know how to walk upstairs
properly was asked to describe how it
should be done. He said: Usually a
person will tread on the ball of his foot
in taking each step. This is very tire
some and wearing on the muscles, as it
throws the entire suspended weight of
the body on the muscles of the legs and
feet. You should, in walking or climb
ing stairs, seek for the most equal dis
tribution of the body's weight possible.
''In walking upstairs your feet should
be placed squarely down on the step,
heel and all, and then the work should
be performed slowly and deliberately.
In this way there is no strain upon any
particular muscle, but each one is doing
it's duty in a natural manner. The
woman who goes upstairs with spring
is no philosopher, or at least she is not
making proper use of her reasoning
faculties. The habit, too, of bending
over half double when ascending a
flight of stairs is exceedingly repre-
hensible. In any eXertion of this kind,
when the heart is naturally excited to a
more rapid action, it is desirable that
the lungs should have full play. The
crouching position interferes with their
action, the blood is imperfectly aereat-
ed, and there is trouble at once. Give
the lungs a chance to do their work
everywhere and at all times"

ELECTRICAL COOKING.
It Has Proved n Great Success wher.
ever 1t Has Been Given n
Thorough Trial.

Electricity is making it's way into the
kitchen through the parlor and dining
room, says the Cosmopolitan. For some
time it has been used for the heating
of the five-o'clock tea kettle, eliminat-
ing the dangers which are always in
Cured when an alcohol lamps used.
tea kettle, coffee pot or chating dish
may be adjusted to the nearest lamp in
q house wired for electric lighting.
The experienced cook knows that
there are dishes which are never seen in
their perfection ten feet from the fire
that cooked them. People who have
passed their youth in the country grow
peevish over the way years have
deteriorated the flavor of some simple
early favorite of the table. Electrical
appliances have done something to
bring back the old conditions. Griddle
cakes baked on steel griddle, electric
ally heated to the exact temperature,
lightly brushed with oil, are crisp de-
light as they are tipped from griddle to
plate. But while this appliance can be
used with the Illuminating current, it
requires an extra attachment, as that
current is too weak. This is generally
put in at the leg of the dining-table.
Up to this time electricity has been
used almost exclusively by the woman
who makes fad of experimental cook
ing, and she has her electric kitchen
| fitted up like a small laboratory, far
from the domain of the family cuisine.
The whole paraphernalia might fit
into a tiled closet almost anywhere, so
hooded and ventilated that no odor es-
capes into the surrounding rooms. In
one of the apartment houses in New
York dainty little electric kitchens have
been fitted up where the tenants have
asked for them, although the apart
ments were not designed for house
keeping originally.

it, avoiding the sacrifice of forced sale,
was to keep the plant in operation.
And so it was that college-bred Anne
liza Judson became a sawmiller in the
heart of the Bill William mountains of
Arizona. She went to the Office and
took charge. The rough men who saw
her wondered at her temerity and
hardihood; then they admired her
pluck and determined to help her in
every way possible. She went into the
woods with the logging teams and
learned every detail of the work Of
converting standing tree into lum-
ber or fruit boxes. She got out her
brothers contracts in time, took fur
ther orders and prospered at every
turn. Running a sawmill has passed
the experimental stage with me" said
Miss Judson. "The fact that we have
made money every month since Feb
ruary, or since got the run of the
work, is no credit of mine, but the re-
suit of my brothers establishment of
the business. I like the work very
much, and 1 shall no doubt continue it.
1 am never lonesome out there in the
camp, for the work SO occupies all my
waking hours that 1 never have time
to dwell on sentimentalities."

St Louis Society Girl Gives Up the
Luxuries of Home to Run nm
Arizona Plant.

Miss Amelia Judson, of st. Louis, be-
came an Arizona sawmiller all in one
day. Her brother had invested $4,000
in timber lands and built sawmill and
established the Judson lumber camp,
% miles northeast of Williams, Ariz.
He made a speciality of timber suitable
for boxes for the California fruit trade
and from the start was successful. In
June, 1898, young JudsonS mother and
sister came to visit him. Miss Judson
had just finished course at Cornell
university and expected, after leaving
Arizona to go to Paris to study art.
But misfortune prevented. Only a
week before she and her mother had
intended to return to st. Louis, Andrew
Judson became suddenly i'll with
typhoid fever and died. That was last
October.
There was but one thing to do. Three
important contracts for lumber and
box material were in course of fulfill
ment when the ambitious young lum-
herman died. Both mother and daugh-
ter realized that thousands of dollars
of their money was tied up in the lum-
ber camp and that the only way to save

When Conee Is Left over.

With the most careful calculation,
says Mrs. Lincoln, there is frequently
coffee left over; not enough, perhaps,
for another serving as a beverage, but
too much to be wasted. Do not leave
it in the pot with the grounds, but pour
it off or strain it carefully, and if it be
used again hot let it just come to the
boiling point. This will be much nicer
than to reheat it with the grounds.
1t may be used to dilute the egg for
the next mornings coffee, or as flavor
ing in custards, creams and ices; or as
the liquid in place of or with milk in
gingerbread, cookies, cakes, ETC., or,
when there is a sufficient quantity, it
can be made into jelly.

MuNsoN OF MUNsoN's HILL.
The Thrilling Experiences of n Loyal
Young Unionist and HIS
Noble Horse.

While a guest of DR.. Harry Corbitt
and wife, near old Fort Berry, Va, a
few miles out from Washington, recent
ly, collected material for a thrillingly
interesting chapter. DR.. Corbitts wife
is a granddaughter of Munson, who
owned the Munson hill plantation, the
point occupied by the confederates
when they advanced toward Washing
ton after the first battle of Bull Run.
Soldiers and others who were in and
about Washington at that time will re
member the wild stories about the
Davis government planting guns on
Munson's hill that would reach the cap
ital, plainly in view from that point,
but over six miles away. There were
no guns in existence, at least none in
the United States, at that time capable
of sending a missile so great distance,
though to-day they have them that can
send a solid shot or she'll three times
as far. What shelling Washington
would have received soon after the first
Bull Run, over Sc years ago, had Beau
regards men possessed a battery of mod
ern long-distance guns. But this is not
the story.
Mr.. Munson, of Munson's Hill, who
had gone TO Virginia from a New Eng
land state, was a stanch union map.
His son Daniel, then a young man, was
in hearty sympathy with him, as was
the whole family. That rendered him
very unpopular with his secession
Reighbors, who were determined that
the young fellow Dan should enter the
confederate service. Urgings failed to
secure him, and so did threats.
Soon after hostilities began young
Munson was taken down with a fever.
A band of confederates rode up to the
house one afternoon and insisted on his
joining them, and would listen to no
proposition for a further delay. Again
he declined, and spoke of his illness as
an excuse for wanting them to leave
him, but they wouldn't. They had his
favorite saddle horse brought to the
door, took him out of bed, helped TO
dress him, led him from the house,
placed him in the saddle and started
for Fairfax Court House. He was so
seriously i'll that he could not sit up.
He lay down, throwing his arms around
the neck of his horse. They had gone
several miles. While passing through
a forest whose underbrush was very
thick, Munson, through a fortunate
bluneer on the part of his enemies,
found himself at the rear of the party,
A gentle touch of the rein brought his
faithful animal to a standstill. A mo-
ment later it was facing the other way,
and heard the command: Now, Polly,
for home and with her masters arms
clinging about her neck, still unable
to sit up, the fine blooded mare made
rapid time in getting back to the Mum
son mansion. Every member of the
family petted and fed Polly" sugar
that night as a partial reward for res
cuing their son and brother.
Strange as it may seem, the long ride
and hard experience did not have an
unfavorable effect on the enfeebled

house. A week had passed, during
done pennance for his lack of discipline,
when the colonel returned in the same
manner and found the same man on
guard. In response to the usual chal-
lenge the colonel rode up and suave-
ly attempted to establish his identity.
The response came quickly: "Arrah,
shure, l knowed the colonel's white
harse vance, but, be gorra, L don't know
him any more" at the same time assum-
ing the position of charge bayonet.
The colonel was compelled to ride
back to headquarters and get the coun-
tersign before he could enter his own
camp.
At the second battleof Bull Run some
confederates were captured by the
union army. They were resting in a
field under guard when some of the
union soldiers gathered around and en-
tered into conversation with them.
The most voluble of the union soldiers
argued on the policy of the confeder-
ates giving up the fight. "You know"
he said, you'll be beaten in the end,
and you had better give up now rather
than later"
Apparently the most intelligent of
the Johnnies, who was seated on the
grass hugging his knees, replied:
"Well, we may be beaten in the end,
but we intend to have our fun as long
as it lasts"
The second battle of Bull Run, which
was running fight, gave little oP-
portunity to either side to practice
much ceremony over the dead. Those
of the union army who fell within the
lines subsequently occupied by the con-
federates were simply covered up with
earth where they fell. When the union
army passed over the ground in their
advance later it was found that the
