How They Make Lemon. Sour.

HOW xhey NAuhA0 AGAhOAAo SO0Es
Until recently the California people
did not know how to cure lemons. The
fruit was never tart enough. There
would be plenty Of Juice. but 1t con-
tained high percentage Of sugar and
a small percentage of acid, which
made it unmarketable. But few
years ago the lemon growers dubbed
together and sent experts over to Italy
and Spain to learn the business, aud
now they are producing much better
results. They pick the fruit before It
begins to turn yellow and put 1t in q
curing house. where it is kept at an
even temperature Of about 90 degrees
for about 20 days, which "sweats OUT
all the sugar. 1t is then removed to
another temperature for 60 days more
before It IL ready for the market.
Thus the highest degree Of acid and
the largest degree Of juice can be OBJ
tained. One Of the curious effects Of
this Sweating" process is to reduce
the thickness Of the skin. 1t originally
grows thick and tough, but the acid
seems to eat It up.-Chicago Record.

The STAR editor received the follow

publish it in full:
LONDON, Eng, August 23, 1899.
Editor STAR. Dear Sir and Friend:-
We have had such a pleasant trip, es-
pecially across the Atlantic. that feel
would like to have our friends know
about it.
We sailed from New York on August
i1tG, '99, on the magnificent steamship,
st. Paul, of the "American Line. This
is the ship commanded by Sigsby in
our late war in the West Indies, when
it was chartered by the United States.
We found our modern steamer very
finely and completely equipped, equal
to any first.class hotel. The crew,
from Master to cadet, 400 men, were all
Englishmen. The ship was not crowd
ed. yet we had some charming people
aboard and all agreed that we had an
Unusually fine passage. Only few,
but none of our family, We're sea-sick
and we never missed "A meal nor u
nights rest The weather was fine and
we all spent most of our time out of
doors ON deck, which was at once a
fine play ground for tho children and
for sitting or promenading for the old
or people. Then we had games and
music, plenty to cat and drink, and al
ways fine scenery before us, the rolling,
foaming waves, fishes jumping out Of
the dark blue sea and glistening in the
sunlignt, sail and steamships passing,
knd then the beautiful sunsets and the
bright moonlight nights added inter
est to the voyage.
We will remain in London several
days and then go to our final destina-
tior, Hamburg, Germany, where our
address will be Grindleburg, l5a, for
le next few years.
We wish our old friends at Hot
prings much success and would be
lad to hear from any of them ut amy
ime. You may send the STAR to above
ddress and obliged.

At the conference Saturday last
there were some very interesting
speeches made concerning Black Hills
college, in which S. f. Wilson and d..
w. Martin most ably represented the
laymen, while all but two of the preach
ers proved themselves enthusiastically
loyal to the college, most prominent
among whom were DR.. Clark, of Dead
wood and Rev. Skaggs. of Sundance.
President Pyle and DIR. Lymer were
not slow in giving Facts that told in
the interest of the college. With so
much interest and apparent enthusi-
asm upon the part of the preachers all
over the Hills in favor of the college
there certainly must oe ii good year be-
fore this educational institution.
Hot Springs people should everyone
lend encouragement to the work of
building up the college and increasing
the attendance. The indications now
are that the attendance will be at least
100, with u good prospect of it being
considerably above that. Certainly
that means splendid thing for Hot
Springs commercially aud should COM

School opened Monday morning,
whsn lessons were assigned for work
on Tuesday morning. Tho. enrollmsn*
is 30, some of the grades being some
what crowded. Some delay in work is
caused by shortage of books, as it
was not known how many:would be, re.
qnired. The school patrons must re-
member shat the slight change made
with certain books was, made under
direction of the board and according
to state Law, and the change of books
would have been just this same ander
any superintendent or principal. The
STAR makes this statement of it's own
accord, having heard it questioned as
TO why the pupils were required to
purchase new books. iAnd we may say
funther, that pupils are, only required
to tuy these new series when they are
advanced in grades. Is your child is
progressing in studies, new books are
necessary. instead of using their older
brothers or sisters, BOOKS, although

New Form of ros.a, Money Order.

adopted a new form of domestic money
order, which will be introduced gradu-
ally, or as supplies of the old form be-
come exhausted, at the various post
offices throughout the country,, after
the 4th of September.
The new form is somewhat smaller
than the. order now is use. Its. dimen--
sions are about those of the ordinary
bank draft. 1t has two adjunots-the
advice, or notification to be sent by
the issuing to tho paying postmaster,
is a reproduction of the order through
the use of carbonized paper the mani
fold process,l and receipt for the
amount, to be furnished by the issuing
postmaster TO the remitter.
On the back of the order y. separate
space has been provided for the stamps.
of banks through which it may be
passed for collection.
In color the order is blue. having a
light blue ground, with fine, closely in
terlaced, tinted lines of geometrical
lathe-work, of darker shade. In the
center is an escutcheon, bearing the
words, POSTAL Money Order" in shaded
capital letters of the same tT o tints of
blue. The tint of the order and the
lathe work will serve to prevent i.nita.
tions: but as an additional safeguard
against counterfeiting, y horizontal
water mark, composed of the initials
U. S. NJ. o., in broad, capital letters
has been wrought into the paper on
which the new forms are printed.
Through the process mentioned (ths
carbon, or manifold process, the or
der and the advice are produced sim
ultaneously. By the same operation
the essential particulars of name of
payec, date, amount and place of pay
ment, as written i'll the order, are du-
plicated, or reproduced, and made to
appear in the order precisely as in the
order. The liability to mistake is thus
greatly lessened, and saving of time
effected. Discrepancies between or
der and advice. which, by entailing ad-
ditional correspondence and causing
delay III payment, have heretofore
been source of annoyance to the de-
partment and postmasters, as we'll as
to remitters and payees. are prevented,
and absolute uniformity between the
order and advice insured. The de-
spatch of advices,. which hitherto have
not been made out until after issue of
the orders, will also be accelerated.
That the new order may win it's way
to public favor by it's simplicity, clear
ness aud adaptability. reat care has
been taken to give it this character by
arrangement of it's parts, by avoiding
surplusage in the text or wording, anl
by using plain type and excluding
whatever would be merely ornate de
sign.
In the adoption of the new forna @
order the interests and preferences o
patrons of the system, no less. thai
economy of administration, have bee,
duly considered; and it is therefor
confidently expected that it kill ten'
to enhance in no small degree the pop
; ularity of this method of saaking re
mittances. 1t is expected that on o
about January next the fee charge
, for orders will be materially reduced
