Mrs. ClappertOn.

BY the death of Mrs. Alexander
Clapperton, which has just taken
place at kirkhill, another link con-
Meeting the present with the days of
Sir Walter Scott has been severed.
She entered Sir Walters service when
she was sixteen years of age and re-
manned a member OF his household up
to the time of his death.
She possessed fund of "reminiscences
of the great novelist and loved to tell in
her old age how she used to take him
his porridge and buttermilk in the
morning. She would talk also of the
great care Sir Walter bestowed upon
his dogs and other pets.
Among her most cherished possess
ions was lock of his hair which she
received after his death. During her
declining years Mrs. Clapperton was
often hunted up by Scott enthusiasts
and asked to tell of the novelist and
his home life.

navy be safely gotten over. the little
army under Colonel Maher would be in
the Transvaal by now. How to get
how best to show practical help for
the Beers is the problem that now
confropts Colonel Maher. But let him
tell his own story.
"Should | go to the Trausvaal with

"to ascertain whether or not it was
possible to secure the names OF q thou
sand Nebraskaus who we're willing to
go to South Africa to aid the Beers"
he did not say in what way.
1t costs about $780, per man to get
transportation from America to Delagoa
Bay. SO 1t will bot do to be precipitate
arranging for the recruits reaching
their destination when once they have
been started. 1t can be seen that the
capture by British ships of a regiment
of rough riders intended for Boer army
would not mean the loss of mems servi-
ces acne: although that of course would
be the heaviest loss, but waste Of
good money paying the passage half
around the world of recruits who
would only be turned back to this
country. Colonel Maher is, therefore,
proceeding very slowly about the
shipment of the men, and it is probab BILE
that they will be sent out in ones and
twos and threes ostensibiy to join
The Boer ambulance corps.
None but those whose good faith is
beyond question will be sent out.
Every man who gets through therefore,
will be a most valuable addition to
the Boer army. These recruits for Dom
Paul are not soldiers Of fortune, but
good Americans who desire to help
the cause of fire ,aom 10 South Africa.

in 1776, and this, coupled with the
patriotic sentiments contained in so
many Of the letters | receive from the
noble men and women in all walks of
life, nerves the heart and hand to
undertake the most hazardous and
difficult undertaking in their behalf
1T is impossible for me to personally
answer all the communications /
receive, but I am placing the names
upon the roll of honor, and in the
future, should move be made, they
will receive proper notice, and should
nothing further be done, they will be
buoyed up and made happy in after
years by the thought that they did
all they could to aid a struggling sister
republic to sustain herself against the
most cruel, 1nh umau and tyrannical
government on earth, the robber of all
weak nations, England.
This raising of men to help win
battles is no new thing with Mr.. Maher.
During the war with Spain, as soon as
the president called for volunteers, he
rendered his services, and at once
organized company. but not having
any great military experience, he
enlisted as n private
although at the time he was colonel
on the staff of the then governor, Silas
A. HOloomb b. of Nebraska. Nah err served
with his company until they were mus
tered out of service. His regiment was
the Second Nebraska Volunteers, and
be was q member of Company Fl.
He was we'll liked and very popular
with the privstes of the regiment. He
it was who had trouble over a type
writing machine.
General Fred Grant ordered Maher
to surrender it. Maher refused to give
it up unless the request was made in
different terms. This was not done,
and Maher, declining to surrender the
machine, was placed under arrest. A
trial resulted in the whole proceedings
being dismissed fer irreeularity.
When the war in the Trausvaal
broke out Maher at once began to
organize those who were willing to aid
the Beers. When it became known that
be wes taking names he very soon lad
no less than 300 names of Young and
cid men If Hlt nstionalities. all anxious
to go to the Transvaal and help the

Tn. Dual Purpo.e Cow.

Numerous have been the articles re- garding the dual purpose animal, and 1t has been noticed that the last ditch In the line of defense taken by the op- ponents of this valuable animal Is the difficulty of producing her, writes Pro- lessor A. c. Hopkins of the Wisconsin College of Agriculture In The Breeders Gazette. Judging from the standpoint of the special purpose man, this objec- ton is we'll nigh insuperable, and yet when investigation is made among those pure breds and their grades. which are allowed to come the nearest to dual purpose stock, we find that the objection stated Is no longer tenable.
 No one will deny but that tho special purpose COW has her place, and in all fairness we should also allow as much for the dual purpose animal. To be specific, the place for the dual purpose COW, a COW that will not only give a fair quantity of milk and butter, but that will also produce a calf that will make, if properly fed. marketable fat animal. is in the west, in northern Wisconsin. Iowa, Minnesota, the Da- hOtlS HHu lllt Adhhulstn hOIAuWfSA. According to my own observations and experience have no hesitation in say Ing that the Shorthorn will give us the dual purpose animal, and doubtless such breeds as the Red Polls may also do 1t. As to the other breeds am un- able. through lack of experience. to claim such q valuable quality or char acteristic for them.

Look we'll to their record. What they have done many times in years gone by, is the best guarantee of future results Anyone with bad back; any reader suf- fering from urinary troubles, from any kidney ills, will find in the following evil dence proof that relief and cure is near at hand:
 MT. Patrick O. Dwyer, mason, or Ca White street. New Haven, Conn. says {: "In 1896 when Doan's Kidney Pills cured me of backache which always bothered me when I caught cold, which hurt me when I stopped, or strengthened after stepping, which refused to disappear un- der treatment of different medicines. I was only too pleased to let the people of New Haven know the fact through our newspapers. Three years from that date, or in the month of May, 1899, just as ardently recommend Doan's Kidney Pills as I did when they effected the cure mentioned above. My advice to anyone suffering from kidney complaint is, call at drug store, procure Doan's Kidney Pills. take them as directed, and you will be surprised at the results"

Some New Uses For MiIk.

From the casein derived from milk by coagulation, we are told by L'Indus- trie Laitiere Paris), Is now made an artificial ivory known as lactite, from which are manufactured billiard balls, toothbrush handles, combs, etc. The same journal informs us that by treat ment of the same casein certain man. ufacturers prepare q paste of powder that can be used instead of eggs in some kinds of cookery, while costing anly half as much" The casein com bined with alkaline bases makes a hydraulic cement. The curd Is cut into bits, which are dried rapidly and then finely powdered. The powder is mixed with 20 per cent of pulverized quick lime. Finally curdled milk has been for some time used in whitewashing buildings and to prevent scaling. For this purpose 1t is mixed with lime so as to make a thick liquid. Lactarine Is preparation of almost pure casein, which, dissolved in ammonia, Is used to thicken colors employed in cotton printing.

Cooling Milk For Shipping.

Few farmers who haul their milk to the creamery take much pains in cool ing their milk, and doubt if 1t Is abso- lutely necessary If 1t Is delivered be- fore 1t sours, says a correspondent of Hoard's Dairyman. But for those who ship their milk to cities or deliver d. rectly to private families cooling milk is an important factor in the milk busi- ness.
 There are great number of ways of cooling milk, but the easiest and most scientific way in my experience Is this:
 First of all get correct thermome- water you intend to use to cool your milk with. ....
 Invest in an aerator, or cooler Any kind Is better than none at all, as they are all made to cool and aerate the milk in better way than stirring 1t in a can or bucket.
 After you have been working at your milk trying to cool 1t off for a certain length of time and you think 1t ought to be cool enough by this time, don't fail to take the temperature of the milk and don't depend on guesswork, for more cans of milk have been lost by guesswork than any other way I know of.
 Shippers who ship their milk to large cities often complain of "sour milk'' marked on their statement when they get their checks. They are generally those who do not understand cooling their milk properly. They don't know the temperature of their spring water; they don't know how cool their milk Is when they ship 1t, and then the deal CT they ship to is blamed for 1t all be cause he refuses to pay them full price for their tainted and sour milk.
