A BITE IN THE DARK.
The Young Man Liked Jelly, and lie
Filled His Mouth.

A young Nan whose work keeps him
down town until the early morning
hours usually reaches home with a
sharp appetite. His mother, an in
dulgent mother. too. puts little lunch
out where he can get it, but this fire.
quently fails to satisfy him. His wise
parent knows this, and she saves the
larder from q wholesale onslaught by
locking things up.
Now. if there is one thing in particu-
lar that this youth dotes upon it is
jelly. But jelly is an article of food
that takes time and skill in it's prep
aration. and if the lady left her jelly
jars at his disposal-well. there would
be none to dispose of after a few
mornings. SO the jelly is locked up
the tightest of all.
The other morning the youth let him
self into the house Just as the gray
the eastern sky. There was milk and
bread awaiting him, but his soul
cravcd for jelly. He determined to
hunt for some. Taking a slice Of bread
and a knife. he stole down cellar aud
searched the fruit shelves. What hap
pincss. He dimly made out the out
lines of a jelly jar. Was there any
Jelly in it? He dipped in his knife and
felt the soft and quivering mass. What
n joke on his usually careful mothcr!
She had actually forgotten to turn the
key on this treasure.
He drew out a generous quantity and
carefully spread it on the bread He
1ad to do it largely by guesswork, be-
cause the cellar was almost totally
lark. When the spreading was done,
he smacked his lips lightly and took a
generous bite.
No, it wasn't jelly; it was soft soap

day and sprinkle the cutters and all
wet spots on the floor with land plaster
GYPSUM or road dust.
.. Give each COW a liberal supply of
dry bedding ut all times.
8. Use the card and brush daily on
each animal. Such attention is as i'm
portant for the COW as for the horse.
4. Feed, water and milk with regu-
larity, always at the same hours and in
the same order.
.. ca Before commencing to milk
brush the udder and TANKS carefully
anG wash the teats if necessary; CD

few drops of clean sweet oil if teats are
dry and rough; (c) draw the milk as

I'D get all the milk each time and then
stop; do not strip" with thumb and
finger.
6. Weigh each mess of milk accu-
rately and record il.
Z. Keep the proprietor or superin-

8. Never leave cows out of doors in a
storm or when it is so cold that man
out with them would be uncomforta-
BILE.
0. Loud or angry words cannot he
tolerated, and blows are strictly forbid

mother. Everything which approaches
unkindness, not to say brutality, must
be scrupulously avoided.
10. Keep these commandments not
only to the letter, but in their spirit
also.-Hoard's Dairyman.

AGUINALDO's MOTHER.

Holly Springs, Miss, Jan. 3l.-D.
N. Mickle, formerly Of the First Ten.
nessce, but now an employe OF Ma
Mia newspaper, has obtained an enter
view with Sonora Trinidad Fanny, the
mother Of Aguinaldo. Mr.. Mickle
writes: \
Though suffering from headache
and the general effects OF her wild rsce
about the country with the insurgeut
army as II fed before the relentless
advance Of the Americans, Sonora
Trinidad Fanny, the mother Of Agui.-
nalaldo, very cordially consented to
be interviewed, taking advantage OF
the opportunity, as she said to thank
the American people for the unusual
kindness which has been shown her.
The sonora and her grandson, the
little Miguel, son OF the famous Don
Emilio AguinaldO, the leading spirit
OF the insurrection, are the guests Of.
Senior Tuason, at No. 20 Sebastian
street, who has been q close friend Of
the AguinaldO family since long before
Don Emilio rose to the leaderahip OF
his people. Sonora Fanny said she be-
Iieved her son had acted only from the
purest motives, for what he considered
the best interests Of his people. He
had done his best and she was proud
Of him.
"He had found them bowed beneath
the yoke Of Spain and he dedicated
his life to their liberation. After
years Of trial and by the aid Of his
American allies, he had severed the
chains that bound them. Then came
months uf doubt. He had done his
part and would have willingly retired,
but the council Of his people decided
otherwise aad he abided by their de-
cision. But the God OF all willed that
the new born movements should fall.
aud she bowed to that Judgment"

avowed that Mississippi bad sought
