The roads in Normandy are splendid
for cycling, the only disadvantage be-
ing that the straightness of many main
routes hides the beauty of the country,
for which reason it is often q good

is the easier because not only are the

IrascibIe Won BuIOVv.

During Hans Won BuloW's leader
ship of the orchestra at Hanover a
tenor of fame was engaged to play a
star role in "Lohengrin," according to
Das Neue Blatt, and while the singer
was rehearsing his part Bulow was
forced to go over the same bars num-
Der of times without the new actor
beginning to sing. Tired Of his wasted
efforts, the leader stopped the orchestra
and angrily turned to the singer.
II know that tenor is proverbially
stupid" he said, "but you seem to
make an extensive use of this unwrit-
ten law"
At another time, while one of his
grand intermezzos was being played
with great feeling by his musicians, q
peculiar noise, hardly perceptible by
unframed ears, annoyed the leader for
some little time. At first he thought
it resembled the f1utter of wings, but
soon he discovered an elegant lady
tanning herself in one of the boxes
close by. Bulow kept on with his ges-
lures, fixing his eyes on the offender
in a manner which meant reproof. The
lady, not needing this, was suddenly
surprised by the leader dropping his
stick and turning toward her.
Madam he cried, eff fan you must,
please at least keep time with your in
fernal nuisance"

Eject of Fear ON wounds.

The fear of poison in a lacerated
wound under certain circumstances is
In itself quite sufficient to give a
wounded man tetanuS, or lockjaW,
than which no more horrible complica-
ton exists. Thus for long time it
was thought that the natives of the
Solomon and other neighboring is
lands lately added TO the empire used
poisoned arrows and many white men
shot by them died in tetanic convul-
sions, including one very horrible case
of a commander in the navy who had
made a special study of tetanus.
At length the French governor of
New Caledonia, noticing that the symp-
toms exhibited were not consistent
with the use of any known poison, ap-
pointed a medical commission to in
quire into the affair, when it was dis
covered that the arrows of the natives
were not poisoned at all, although con-
structed in such way that a small
piece of the bone point almost always
remained in the wound. The irritation
produced by this prevented the wound
from healing quickly, and the mental
disturbance produced by fear and per-
haps change of climate did the rest.
1t was discovered at the same time
that the natives of other islands who
firmly believed in the poison theory
seldom suffered much inconvenience
from the arrow wounds, because they
believed that the spells given them by
their own sorcerers prevented the pol
son from taking effect.-Pal1 Mall Ca

Too Much For the Tiger.

A keeper at the Philadelphia zoo told
the following interesting story Of an
encounter he once had with a tiger in
India:
''With several companions I was on
my way to visit some native friends
in a neighboring village, and as the
jungle paths were the shortest route
we made the trip in chairs slung on
carriers shoulders. I was about half
asleep from the swinging motion when
was pitched out by the native drop
ping the poles and scampering off.
That's how [ met my tiger. With a
bound he was on me and had taken a
mouthful of my coat, intending, no
doubt, to carry me into the dense IN
dergrowth.
Fortunately for me I had a big bot
tie of ammonia in my coat pocket, car
ried it for snake bites, you know, and
when the brute took the meuthful he
broke the bottle. The whfff he got
made his whiskers curl. and one was
enough. He rolled over a couple of
times, gasping and waving his paws,
and then made off as quickly as he
appeared. Hurt? No, only a few
bruises from the fall, but the close
shave took my nerves for some
MONTHS

LADIES' COLUMN
TT HAS BEEN NOTICED

That some teachers of cookery beat
eggs on soup plate, using silver
fork instead of an egg beaten.
That in making fish balls, GRO
quettes, ETC., an agreeable flavor is i'm
parted by putting whole Glove in
the article to be fried and removing
it before serving, as it would be I'M
pleasant to bite into the Glove. Ex-
tract of Glove may be used instead,
but does not inapart quite SO fine a
flavor.
That butter or cream may be sub
stituted for olive oil in almost any
recipe, if the taste of the oil is disa-
greeable.
That articles may be.browned in the
chatting dish by using an asbestos
mat, if it is not convenient to use the
oven for his purpose.
That croquette mixture may be
dropped into hot fat in small quaint
ties from the end of a spoon, and will
be found nearly as delicious as when
nodded into shapes, which require SO
much time and care.
In using gelatine, great care should
be taken that it is thoroughly dissolv-
ed. 1t is a good plan to strain it
through cheese cloth.
Less gelatine is required, if it is to
stand over night before using, than if
needed as quickly as possible.
If it is desired to cool gelatine jelly
very quickly, the dish which contains
it may be placed in a pan of cold
water to which some rock salt has
been added.
Coffee jelly is always more satisfac-
tory if little milk be added to the
coffee, but only a small quantity is
needed.
In separating eggs be careful not to
let any of the yolk become mixed
with the whites, as they cannot be
beaten as we'll.
All jellies and buildings, are more
attractive in appearance if individual
molds are used than if nodded in a
mass, unless the dish is to be hand
someIy garnished.
Molds should always be dipped in
cold water before the jelly is poured
in.
Very strong coffee should not be
used for the making of jelly if 1T is to
be served to children.
Sixty drops OF liquid make a tea
spoonful.
Flavoring extracts should be added
to all mixtures when cold if possible.
Keep the whfbes of eggs in motion
after once beginning to beat them,
as they liquefy very quickly.-Good

MANURE SPREADERS.

We want to add our testimony to
tie value of the manure spreader.
We have been using a spreader for
nearly seven years and consider it
one of the most useful and valuable
implements on the farm. How any
farmer who has one and whose land
! is benefited by manure can be indif-
ferent to their use or value we can
not understand. We make annually
| from 800 to 500 loads of manure and
| use nearly all of it as a top dressing
| for wheat or meadows. Knowing
| that in our case we get better results
and quicker cash returns when used
al top dressing than when plowed
| under, in fact we do not believe in
blowing under manure unless it can
be put on the ground several months
IN advance of the blowing, but when
used for top dressing results can be
seen at once and are a positive dem
Onstration of the value of manure all
thl~ agh the growing season, at har-
vest and for several seasons to follow.
We will give one instance in our
own experience: A field of wheat of
80 acres was top dressed at the rate
Of Is spreader loads per acre, except
some five or six acres that we did not
have manure enough to cover. This
was the richest portion of the field
and we thought needed manure the
least. At harvest time the field yield
ed twenty three bushels of wheat per
acre and all who saw it were satisfied
that the part not top dressed would
not exceed eight bushels per acre and
the difference SO far as we know was
wholly owing to the top dressing,
done with the spreader in way that
cannot be approached by hand work.
Such results are convincing and no
There is simply no comparison in the
quality of work done by the spreader
and that done by hand. We have a
clay soil that responds quickly to the
application of manure. Condi tons
differ and spreader might not be so |
valuable to every one as to us, but for |
any farmer who raises wheat and |
grass and saves and applies the ma
nure made on the farm in business |
like way we regard the manure
spreader as one of the very best in |,
vestments he can make, if properly /
used.-Cor. Formers Guide.
