Too Dead Turkeys.

A produce dealer who deals in both
live and dressed poultry, says the AL.
bany Argus, sent to the consignee OF
his dressed poultry letter intended for
the shipper of the live turkeys, as fol-
lows: Dear Sir: We regret to advise
you that four of the turkeys in your
consignment of December reached
here dead. Please make deduction for
same and return corrected account,
Yours truly" The poultry man COM
muned with himself and replied thusly:
Dear Sir: l am sorry to say that I
find it impossible to make concession
requested. 1 have established rule
requiring all customers who desire live
dressed turkeys to notify us in advance,
so we can send them in heated cars.
Turkeys without their feathers and in
sides are liable to catch cold if shipped
in the ordinary manner. The mortality
among dressed turkeys was very large
this year. Yours mournfully."

Ihey organize IN baltimore. Nd, ana
propose to Save Lots OF Money.
Ro latest movement Of the anti
trssterH has it's headquarters in Balti-
more, Md, where an anti-treat circle,
with president, officers and twenty
eight members has been formed. Its
object Is, OF course, to break up treat
ing. The members meet at their hall
once week, but no one ever dares to
say, Have one on me-" for If he
should he would be penalized with a
fine Of 25 cents for each treat. Some
of the reason which led to the forma-
ton Of this circle may be gained from
this lucid statement from one of the
members, who draws a picture whose
fidelity to truth will be recognized
from Maine to Manila: "You and 1
go into saloon with the intention of
having one drink-perhaps two. We
meet eight or ten friends who insist
upon our joining them. We do so.
Then you and l reciprocate. Finally
every man in the crowd insists on
everybody else having one with him.
The consequence is that each man
takes eight or ten drinks of whisky
or beer, and after the bout is over
there is not one but who would have
preferred halt at the first drink.
This custom. repeated several times
q day, year in and year out, will ruin
a man physically and financially"

Rev. DR.. R. H. Nassau expects to re-
turn In the spring to his field of mis-
sionary work in equatorial Africa. This
is DIR. Nassau's fourth visit to the
United States since, as young man, he
was sent to Africa as a missionary 33
years ago. During the last five yearH
he has been stationed at Liberville, Ca
boon province (French), engaged in
translating IA books Of the Bible into
the Fang language. These translations
are being printed by the American
Bible society. The Fangs are tribe OF
cannibals, numbering about 100000,
and inhabiting the country lying far
up the Ogove river. They are large of
stature, warlike, and represent much
the strongest tribe in that portion of
the country. DR.. Nassau said before
leaving Baltimore that he could not
call the natives that he meets in Af-
rica savages; they are cruel, he said.
but not bloodthfrsty; their desire to
kill is more for superstitious reasons
There are cannibals, he said among
them. He has seen them boiling hui
man arms for food and offering for sale
with other meats human hands; "and
one day." continued the doctor, while
floating down the river in canoe, ac-
companied by my little girl and two
natives to row the boat, we were called
to from group of naked men standing
on the shore to know II we wished to
buy any meat, and. holding up hui
man arm, they informed US in their
language that they had just killed two
men belonging to hostile tribe not far
from there. This was about thirty
miles below. my house. The only
means of transportation through that
| portion of the country, DR.. Nassau
said, is by boat. Trade is carried on
without money, cake of soap or a
piece of calico or beads being all that
is necessary. "The men there are
polygamists, their Importance in the
community being estimated according
to the number of wives" said the doc

but abuse their wives. Our mission has
succeeded in bringing about 1900 of
them into the Presbyterian church. II
before coming Christians they had
married more than one wife we require
them to set all free (all their wives are
slaves, bought and sold) but one-the
one they might prefer. The African is
very hospitable. No medicine ever gave
me more benefit than the Christian
kindness of these heather friends Of
our little mission. They have a re.
ligion--they are more religious thar
you or 1. They feel honored to receive
us as their official guests, and so w.
can depend upon their protection"

To wash Brushes and comh..

To wash brushes, dip in hot water
into which small lump Of caustic soda
has been melted. Move the brush up
and down until the bristles are quite
clean, but be careful not to let the
wood come in contact with the water,
as the soda will remove the polish.
Hold under the cold-water faucet, then
shake as free from moisture as posi-
BILE, and stand in an upright position
to dry. 1t is best to dry in the open
air, but not in the sun. To clean a
comb dip nail brush in hot soda
water, soap it, and scrub the comb
thoroughly. Rinse in cold water, and
dry with soft towel.

When the junior member Of we'll
known law firm got married, about two
months ago, he entered into compact
with his bride which was designed as
a preventive against conviviality. In
his bachelor days he was known as
Jolly good fellow, which is the same
thing as saying that sometimes he was
a jolly bad fellow; so when he got
married, as safeguard against the
allurements of old comrades, he said
to his wife: 'Now, my dear, l shall
only drink when you do. We shall have
liquid refreshments in the house, and
as you have no conscientious scruples
against moderate drinking, all tempta-
ton to drink outside will be removed" ("
So the compact was made, and re-
ligiously kept until last Tuesday, when
some old college friends from New

One often wonders how it Is that
some loveable girls. who are domesti-

appearance at home. They are in the
minority, 1t is true. but they are to be
met with very frequently, and 1t is for
their benefit that this paragraph is
penned. Why should the members of
your own household. who are. pre-
sumably, far dearer to you than
strangers. be treated with less con-
alteration than outsiders? II you are
staying at q friends house, you would
not leave your bedroom without max
Ing . careful. though not necessarily
elaborate. toilet. Why, when under
the parental roof, should you take your
seat at the breakfast table with hair
still in "irons,' neck and wrists de-
cidedly untidy, and a general appear
ance OF neglect and slovenliness per-
vading your attire? Even II there are
household duties of "grubby" nature
to be performed fires to be lit, CRATES
to be brushed, or carpets to be swept
these can be done just as we'll il the
hair has been neatly arranged, the
morning ablutions conscientiously per-
formed, and neat dress donned. Then,
Just before breakfast, another washing
OF the hands, and the putting on of
collar and a pair of cuffs, will make

pearance as she undoubtedly is when

OF going about the house untidily at

hair Its matutinal brushing and ar

there are some girls who In winter
never wash their face until after
breakfast. The old gown, with frayed
wrists. missing buttons, or broken but
ton-holes, is put on morning after
morning, until its wear becomes al
most second nature: and no attempt
is made to look nice" until there is a
chance Of being seen by somebody OUT

girls could only hear the remarks made
about them when by chance stranger
does happen to catch sight OF them In
their unlovely garb they would at once
relfnquish their sloyenly habits. The
strange thing is that 1t is generally
nice-looking lassies who are the worst

Mellowine Muskmelons In Southern Italy
In southern Italy muskmelons are at
best much inferior to the American
fruit, lacking the sweetness and flavor
of our fruit. Strange to say, however,
this inferior melon, when saved for
winter consumption, becomes Of an ex-
cellent flavor. The melons are pulled
from the vines while green and hung
in the open air until winter, when
they are eaten. The melon treated thus
becomes not only far superior to ths
ripe fruit of summer, but equal to tho
American melon in sweetness and
flavor.

A Cautious Prophet.

Weather bureaus are seldom safe
from public criticism, for mistakes are
sure to occur; but we must give these
modern prophets credit for an out
spokenness which their forbears were
too shrewd to risk. Mr.. Samuel
Clough, who edited the New England
Almanac at the very beginning of the
last century, was a good example Of a
prophet who intends to make no mis-
takes. Perhaps" says he, predicting
the weather from January 18th to the
