For a long time nothing has been
heard of the cattle ranch scheme for
the Cherryfield plains, and people have
generally considered the matter as
dropped-another scheme which could
not bear its own weight. This is not
| true. 1t is true that the matter has
been dropped for the present, and pros
pect is not as bright as it was for its
realization but this is due to an I'M
fortunate business failure. 1t was not
generally known that Price, McCor
mack & Co., the big produce and stock
men of New York, whose failure last
May, with liabilities Of something like
$43 .000, ,000. We're behind the Maine cattle
ranch scheme, but that fact has just
been made public. Their failure has
necessarily put an end to it as far as
they are concerned, but others who be
lieve in the plan, are trying to interest
other capitalists in it. and the blue
berry plans of Cherryfield may yet be
turned to that purpose.

HOW to Clear the Complexion.

A thorough steaming has wonder
fully good effect occasionally in clear
ing the complexion. 1t may be accom-
plished by holding the face over a
basin Of hot water and keeping in the
steam with a towel, which covers the
head and the basin, forming sort OF
tent.
After steaming for a short time
wash the face we'll with good super
fatted soap and warm water, and then
douche the face with cold water. The
soap does the work of cleansing, the
hot water removes the sudS and the
cold closes the pores Of the skin, which
it braces, so that it is not made too
sensitive to bear the effects Of cold
winds or sun.

How to Preserve Health.

Avoid overeating. To rise from the
table able to eat little more is pro-
verbally good rule for every one.
There is nothing more idiotic than fore
ing down a few mouthfuls because
they happen to remain on ones plate
after hunger is satisfied and because
they may be wasted if left. 1t is the
most serious waste to overtax the
stomach with even half an ounce more
than it can take care of.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1900-12-06

The ingredients are one-half table
spoonful each of dry mustard and salt,
one tablespoonful Of sugar, two table
spoonfuls of -four, one egg, two and
one-half tablespoonful Of melted but
ter, e-fourths of cup Of milk and
third of a cup of cider vinegar.
Mix all the dry ingredients in a double
boiler, add the melted butter and stir
till thoroughly mixed; add the unbeat-
en- egg. Beat the whole thoroughly;
then add the milk and, lastly, the vim
egar, slowly. Cook over hot water till
it thickens, stirring constantly. Strain
and cool.

HOW to Use Benzine.

In using benzine, gasoline and other
cleansing fluids work from the edge to-
ward the center of the stain, rubbing
lengthwise of any marginal line that
NAV form-that is, along the line-and
rub until perfectly dry. Persistent rub
bling on the wrong side of the goods is
often successful when other efforts fail.
