A BROTHERS. LOVE.

Lostant, ILL.,, July 8.-James WATT
of this place, by one little act, has
given a splendid example of that
never dying love which exists be-
tween brothers, no matter how far
apart they may be.
Mr.. Watt was a great sufferer from
Kidney Trouble and Nervousness.
BE was very much used up, and al
though he had tried a great many
things, he had found nothing that
would in any way relieve him. Some
one suggested Dodd's Kidney Pills,
and he used six boxes, and was COM
pletely cured.
His first thought was for brother
in Belfast, Ireland, whom he knew to
be afflicted in the same way that
he had been. Mr.. Watt Immediately
sent supply of Dodd's Kidney Pills
to this far-away brother, together
with his recommendation based on
his fortunate experience.

WOMAN POLICE SERGEANT.
Mrs. Mary E. Owens, of Chicago, Holds
This Rank, and IL Earning
Her Salary, Too.

Sergeant Mary Z. Owens, of the
Chicago police department, is the only
woman in the world holding such rank
and title, and if she is not good Off
Ger six mayors of that city have failed
to find it out. She is on the regular
police pay roll, wears sergcant's badge
No. 81 and reports daily to Chief Col
leran, of the detectives. Nobody, from
the chief of police down, gives her or
ders. In the language of the street,
''she knows her business" and it is an
open secret that she knows it so we'll
that she can wear her badge and draw
her salary as long as she likes.
She began her official career in 1889,
says the Chicago Record-Herald, soon
after the death of her husband. The
support of family of three young
children devolved upon her suddenly,
while she was yet ignorant of any pro-
fession, trade or method of money
making. Her husbands friends
brought enough pressure to bear to
have her chosen one of the five wom-
en- health officers appointed by Mayor
Cregier. She did the rest herself.
When the women were dropped by the
health department. Mrs. Owens had
made herself so conspicuously useful
to the police that the elder Carter Har-
rison told Chief McClaughry to ap-
point her patrolwoman, with special
assignment in the sweatshops, depart
ment stores and shopping districts,
where most of the violations of the
child labor and compulsory education
laws were being violated.
II never arrest anybody" said Mrs.
Owens, laughing, land it is mean to
say that I am the shoplifting sleuth.'
l have nothing to do with general
detective work and never had.
For years I have been attached
to the board of education as a spe-
cial officer. OF course, I have full
police power, but find myself more
than busy rounding up truants, look
ing after cruel parents and prevent
ing violations of the child labor law.
Sometimes I arrest tots whom find

Neufchatel Cheese Making.

Neufchatel is a soft, white, and, as
generally eaten, entirely uncured
cheese, resembling in name only tbs
celebrated Neufchatel cheese of Swift:

may define it as unskimmed d. milk, coag-
ulated with rennet, allowed to stand
until sour, the surplus whey removed
by drainage and pressure, after which
the resulting curd is sailed to taste and
nodded into the familiar little cylin-
ders of the stores. This is an OUT
line of the process, but the questions
of ripeness of milk, amount of rennet,
length of time it stands before drain

THE ATHLETIC GIRL.
Her Prestige II Being Slowly But
Surely CSurped by the Soft,
ClinSinS Maid of Yorc

| Backward and forward swings the
pendulum of fashion. We fancy we
have put away certain frivolities for
ever, and, presto! here they are back
again as pronounced as ever. The
fact is that the man and woman in
esse have not changed at ALL
Circumscribed as we are, therefore,
by the limitations of our humanity,
we find in our orbit that now, as
in the days of Solomon, "there is no
new thing under the sum-" and fash
ion must perforce swing around in
an erratic circle of periods-the Vic
torian, the Napoleonic, the Louis
XVI, the Renaissance, the Grecian,
etc.-to crafty the love of change.
This may seem like a rather elabo-
rate preamble to an analysis of the
coming summer girl of 1901, but it is
curiously apropos to observe that the
athletic girls prestige seems to be
more or less on the wane, and that
a soft feminine creature, like the
grandmother of so years ago, who
does nothing but look supremely
pretty in her muslins and laces and
makes herself entertaining, is COM
ing very much to the fore.
A couple of years ago it was gen.
orally thought that the athletic
movement which was so pronounced
all over the country would develop
|.a new woman, and that the fluff '
summer girl of yore had vanished
forever, fb0t to the great joy of the
maidens fand they are not a few
who have all along secretly detested
sport, it seems now quite on the
tapis that they may be as much in
the fashion this summer as their
more @amazonian companions and
may openly avow their preference
for shady corners and tete-a-tetes
without incurring disapprobation.-

ImportinE German Potatoes.

It may seem strange that Germany
should be able to establish an export
trade with America in potatoes, yet
such is the case. So far the shipments
made have been small, but the indica-
tions are that the volume will increase.
Orders for next season are heavy The
German potatoes are smaller than
ours. Those exported are known to
the trade as "old potatoes" and are to
be used almost entirely by the largo
hotels making potato salad. Amer
leans should supply this demand by
purchasing seed potatoes in 'Gernlany
and raising them at home. They could
be sold at a greater profit than is made
on the potatoes now grown, as the
Germans can afford to raise them, pay
freightage and our import duty Of rs
cents a bushel and still find the busi-
ness remunerative.-Toronto Mail.

For each 100 pounds of meat, seven
pounds of salt, one pound of brown

Spread this compound on the flesh

favor. At first everybody did it, Just

When these were introduced the
