The Rest Mt the Bottom.

Speaking of poison murders. native
of Maine told Of a. peculiar crime thas
occurred in his. state. This was the
case. of man who had tired of his
wife, and in order to rid himself of her
in the shortest and most expeditions
manner possible he determined upon
her death. Divorce, while a feasible
method. appealed not to his frugal
mind. since it involved a large initia.
tory expense from counsel fees and q
continuous one from alimony.
So on murder he resolved, arsenic as
the agent to effect 1t, and the method
through which to introduce the poison
into the stomach Of his victim with
out arousing her suspicious the usually
innocuous and popular lemonade.
At the trial it was proved that he
carried through his plans with skill
and finesse, but after the deadly lem.
onade had been drunk by his too trust.
Ing spouse, noticing that some Of the
precipitate remained in the bottom Of
the glass, he stirred 1t we'll up and

Napoleon Was a Dandy.

It is pleasant to learn, If one has Ma
poleon l on the hero list, that he had
very dainty habits in personal mat
ters; that he was fastidiously clean in
his person, according to an article in a
French contemporary, and poured eau
de cologne into the water he washed
In, then sponged his head with per-
fume and finally poured the remainder
Of the contents of the flask over the
neck and shoulders. He was also ex-
travagantly fond Of clean linen and
during his campaigns had relays of it
sent to different places. In those days
it did not cost farm to have starch
ed things" laundered, for, in account
with a famous laundress in Paris, the
emperor's "linen" for one wash"
amounted to 1856 pieces and cost only
trifle over $50.
This strikes an American as very
reasonable. But his majesty never
wore any article but once, and as he al
ways undressed himself without aid
from his valet his garments were liter
ally "cast" to the four corners of the
room. Napoleon's bill for eau de CO.
logne, however, exceeded the washer
woman's by large majority. 1t Is q
relief to learn that the Little Corporal
was so much dude. Some Of his
predecessors in the Tuileries were not
blessed with such excellent habits, If
history is to be relied upon.

Is It Malaria Or Alum?
Popular Science Monthly.

Languor, loss of appetite, indigestion
and often feverishness are the common
symptoms of a physiological condition
termed malaria" All these symp-
toms may be and frequently are the
erect OF the use of alum baking powd-
ers in food making. There is no ques-
ton about the poisonous effect of alum
upon the system. 1t obstructs diges-
ton, prostrates the nerves, coagulates
and devitalizes the blood. All this has
been made clear, thanks to ply
sicians, boards of health, and food
commissions. So "highly injurious to
the health of the community" does the
eminent head of the University of
Pennsylvania, DR.. Barker, consider the
alum baking powders, that he SAYS
their sale should be prohibited by
law
Under these circumstances it is
worth the while of every housewife to
employ the very little care that it is
necessary to keep so dangerous an ele-
ment from the food of her family.

ing powder, which is the on.
ly kind that should be used,
cents pound. Therefore, if you are
paying much less, something is wrong:
if you are paying twenty-five cents or
less, per pound, the powder is certainly
made from alum.
Always bear these simple facts in
mind when purchasing baking powder.

AlJapanese Dinner.

He who does not like the way the

than the French. The Japanese wa
ters are very prolific, and the natives
seem to have learned in cooking TO

fish. while their sauces are very SIM

ed at the kandagawa, a teahouse in
Tokyo, he who has tasted them has

which to judge other eels.
Seaweed we had, too, thin as paper.
and crisp. 1t is the weed of the sea
that Is left on the rocks and scraped
from them by the fisher women with

havor, suggesting cinnamon.
