WINE FROM APPLES.
Even the. Most Knowing
Experts.

Science has lately made it possible to
obtain good wine from the apple, which
has always been devoted to sparkling
cider. Experts have been deceived in
sherry, madeira and sauterne which
came from apple juice instead of grapes.
Juice from the apple is fermented
with yeasts of different kinds brought
from the grape-growing districts of Eu-
rope to this country. For instance, the
favor of sherry is due not to the grape,
but to the infnitesimal fungus germs
that cause its fermentation. The Amer
lean companies import these germs
from the district in Spain where they
flourish, inoculate the apple juice and
obtain fine wine. The same process
is followed with other varieties of wine.
These yeasts are obtained from the
sediment in the watts of Europe. They
are easily propagated. and the only
difficulty is to separate the different
kinds. AS the quality of wine depends
on these fungi winemakers have usual
~ left to chance the kind of wine they
produce, depending on the organisms
which float in the air and attach them
selves to the grapes. The yeasts are
sold bottled, and are much in demand.

BOSTON'S BOHEMIA.

This Writer.

Here Tin Pinckney street, is the free
dom of the Latin quarter, with but a
small amount of it's license" writes
Margaret Allston, in "Her Boston Ex-
periences," in Ladies' Home Journal.
Human nature bears close family
resemblance all over the world when
judged by communities with similar
earmarks, but in America individuals
merely pose as Bohenians; they sell
dom come up Tor down) to the simon
pure article of foreign cities. America
is eminently a respectable country,
well washed morally, and with consid.
cradle respect for the neighbors' opin-
ion. Americans become Bohemianized
in Paris, but seldom in Boston, where
the spook of Cotton Mather and other
standards of responsibility still bold
sway with groan and a ghostly shud-
der at a mishap. In truth, this Boston
Bohemia stands for good spirits and in
nocent Internationally, and is sew
eral times more virtuous than Boston
society, no matter how pretentiously
and famboyantly the little country
tries to disprove it's virtue"

ESCAPE GIVING TIPS.
There Are Many Men Who Shun The
Regular Barbers In Christi
mas Season.

"say, want to tell you something
that is dead straight" said Schneider,
the calculating barber, according to the
Philadelphia Record, as he hurried his
razor over the face of one of his vic
tins. 'You notice this crowd here
waiting to get shayed-we1l, you will
be surprised when tell you that there
are only two of my regular customers
among the entire men there. What does
that mean? Well, not that there has
been an influx into town or that the
eight men have just moved into the
neighborhood. It simply means that
that double quartet is made up of men
who are regular customers at other
barber shops, but who have come here
to get out of giving Christmas presents
in those shops. Say, are you on?
"0h, you'd be surprised at the num-
Der of people who every year perform
the change-of-barber-shop act. We
don't do any more business here, as for
every, strange customer who comes to
us regular customer goes to a strange
shop at this season of present-giving.
When they again get back to their reg
ular shops after Christmas is over they
carelessly remark that they have been
out of town. 'Sh, don't talk so loud,
for I don't want any of my once-a-year
customers to hear you; they might go
somewhere else next year. Next gent"
with emphasis on the gent, the indiyid-
ua! being one Of the strangers.

HIS WAY TO KEEP STRAIGHT.
Employer Some Tricks of
His Calling.

"John, I'd like to know what makes
your back so straight" said q rich
Philadelphia man to his coachman the
other day, says the Press, of that
city. "And how do you stand the
fatigue of sitting so beautifully erect
while you drive for hours and hours
at stretch?"
The coachman blushed with pleas
ure as he led his master to light and
airy corner of the carriage house.
"I'll show you the kind of exercise
1 take every day, sir" he said, $50 as
to be credit to your livery, and your
eGuipage, and yourself and lady"
The man then lay down on his
stomach and drew upward his body
and his legs until he formed a V,
the point of which-his abdomen
alone touched the ground. 81 do this
200 times a day, sir" he said. "It
gives correct carriage"
Then, on parallel bars, he dipped.
"One hundred of these daily, sir, ex-
pand the chest and give robust
grace to the upper arms and shout
ders." He put his arms, well stiffened,
ut his sides, and then slowly raised
them till the hands met over his head.
II do about 500 of that movement for
Ii chest broadener, also for straight
eners."
He then nearly touched his back
with the crown of his head and quite
touched his chest with his chin. THAT
straightens the neck, sir, and gives
the head a proper poise. And SO on,
sir; L continue for an hour or two
every morning, and don't believe, as
long as I keep it up, I'll ever lose
my figure"

TOM THUMB AND THE QUEEN.
The Diminutive General Tried to
Back Out Of Her Presence,
But Failed.

The American minister, Hon. Edward
Everett, was very kind to his country
men, and it was at his house that Mr..
Barnum met certain Mr.. Murray,
master of the queens household, says
st. Nicholas. On the day following one
of the queens LIE guards appeared be-
fore Mr.. Barnup1 with a note contain
ing nm invitation from the queen to
Gen. Tom Thumb and his guardian, Mr..
Barnum, to appear at Buckingham pal
ace on specified evening.
In retiring from the royal presence,
Mr.. Barnum attempted to follow the
example set by the lord in waiting by
backing out. The gallery was of great
length, and the gentlemen with long
strides made rapid progress; but Tom
Thumbs short legs left him far behind
or before. Seeing that he was losing
ground, he turned and ran few steps,
then resumed the process of backing"
Again losing ground, he repeated the
performance, to the great amusement
of the royal spectators. The queen
soon sent another summons, and the
general, with his guardian, made a Sec
ond visit to the palace, being received
in the yellow drawing room.
A third visit was soon paid to Buck
ingham palace, and this time the
queens uncle, Leopold, king Of the
Belgians, was present and was greatly,
amused, asking many questions; and
Queen Victoria, desiring the general to
sing, inquired what song he preferred.
yankee Doodle" was the prompt re-
ply. All present laughed heartily, and
her majesty said: '"That is a very pref
ty song, general; sing it, if you please"
and he did.

CHRYSANTHEMUMS TOO GAY.
Profuse Display Of Big Red Flowers
at q Funeral Shocks q
Whole Town.

Chrysanthemums will no longer be
used as mourning flower at funerals
to be held at Mankato, Mimi, an
nounces traveller from that commun-
ity. 1t appears that popular young
society man of that town recently died.
He was member of many social or
CARNATIONS. Each strove with the
other in indicating at the ceremonies
of his burial how much his loss was felt.
The time of the year was the football
season, also the period when the chrys-
anthemum defies all laws of color and
faunts its wanton shades in public
view. The Isis society, to which this
young man belonged, in an unhappy
moment determined to attend the fu-
neral ornamented with chrysanthe-
NUNS. The deceased had always ad-
mired the flower and it would be stril-
ing tribute to his extinct preferences.
An order was sent to florist in St.
Paul to forward by first express 60 pure
white chrysanthemums to the Isis
members.
The morning the funeral was to take
place they had not arrived, but there
was train due from st. Paul 20 min
utes before the services would COM
mence. One of the Isis members vol
unteered to meet that train, get the
flowers, hurry with them to the church
door and distribute them as the society
marched in. This was agreed to and
the members marched to the sacred
edifice. The flowers arrived, were
taken to the church, door and there I'M
covered. The Isis was just coming in
and quick action was needed. The or
gan was playing Nearer, My God, to
Thee" when the society marched up
the center aisle, each decorated with a
faring red chrysanthemum. The for
list, not having white, had forwarded
red with apologies.

A Faithful Dog.

Our Dumb Animals gives touching
story of the wonderful heroism of a
dog last winter in the icy waters of
Alaska. Two men and the dog start
ed out from camp to find a trail lead
ing away from the terrible Valdes gla-
cier. For days they wandered in the
snow till their provisions were we'll
nigh exhausted and the men could go
no further. Then one of them wrote
message on a scrap of paper, tied it
to the dogs neck, and told him to go
hack to camp. The dog disappeared
in the snow and storm. Two days and
nights passed; when, just as they
were giving up in despair, tout from
the binding snow bounded the faith
full dog, and close behind him came
ready hands to minister to their
wants"

Returns from Congressional dis
tricts indicate that the present Re-
publican majority of Is over all in
the House will be increased. 1t is
said that in New York State the
Democrats have lost at least five
seats, but the returns from else
where follow closely the present
representation. These figures are,
OF course, subject to revision. It
is also said that Pennsylvania has
increased its Republican represen-
tation by three. 1t is possible that
the majority party will have nearly
800 members in the Fifty-seyenth
Congress.
The United States Senate will
continue to be Republican.
McKinley's plurality in Balti-
more city was $3.50. In 1896 his
plurality was 21,092. Frank G.

Third Congressional district by
2,OS3 votes. Charles r. Schirm,
Republican. defeated Congressman
James w. Denny, Democrat, in the
