Why Butter is Salted. s. Percy Frankland in Longman's s

Mrs. Percy Frankland in Longman's
 Magazine.
 Why does salt butter keep better than fresh butter? We must first re- alize that the bacterial population of 8 moderate sized pat of butter may be reckoned by millions; that tiny lump only large enough to go into .thim- ble has been known to be tenanted by nearly 4s.000. GOO; that, in fact. in con- suming a slice of bread and butter you may unconsciously be assimilating in- dividual lives exceeding in number those of the whole of Europe! Thus the urgency for keeping these hordes in check. and hence the efforts which are made first to set up effectual bar riers to their ingress by taking proper precautions in the protection of milk, and. secondly, in the conduct of the processes involved in the manufacture and distribution of the finished article. Included in these processes is the ad- dition of salt in such quantities as to justify the butter being known as salt butter. this addition being made with the object of extending the keeping powers of the butter. or In other words to suppress to a large extent the aetiv- tiles of the butter bacteria. That sAItl does act in this manner is shoWnsby

of time. Both gentlemen are of North Carolina stock.
 cLomas W. Cridler. third assistant Secretary of the State, and native of Lessburg, Virginia, is the moving spirit in all international expositions. He is really the man who helps form the bills and put the thing in good legis- lative shape. Every exposition com mission that has been appointed wi-h- in, perhs ps, tho last decade has had to rely more or less on Mfr. Cridier's executive ability and thorough knowi- edge of the subject. He is not here for there is no one who cohld fill his place in Washington.
 Colonel John B. Brownlow. who has charge of the pestoffice department, Is 8 native of Knoxville, Tennessee. He, too, is . Southern man, and is named for the Hon. John Bell. the last whig candidate for the presiden- cy. one of his fathers most intimate friends. Color Brownlow is the son of the old Governor and Senator Brownlow, who is better known, per- haps, to the world as the famous Par non BrownloW" He was associated with his father for a number of wears as the editor of The Knoxville Whig. Colonel Brownlow commanded the oth regiment of cavalry in the Federal army, and has always been strong Union man, but is devoted to what he conceives to be the best interests of his section. He, too. comes of North Carolina ancestry.
 Washington City is the residence of more officials. here than any other place excepting Buffalo. At least thirty representatives of various de- partments are from the national cap itol and hold positions in the Pan- American grounds. They are more or less what may be termed exposition experts, having been connected witl several expositions in the past. Roscoe W. German of Opelika Ala
 bama. has been appointed commis eioner of the Pan-American Exposi-
 ton by the Governor of that state. and will have charge of the Alabama ex' hibit.

The women Pleased.

The women throughout the United States appreciate the consideration ana courtesy which has been shown them by the director-general or the Fan- American Exposition. General Bucnah- ans course in this respect has been fully Justified by the work done nere which he entrusted to the care or wo- men. Instead of separate displays or mems and women's work the two are rnerred and the work so far done by the women rests solely on its merit. Tt ranks with the best Miss Adelaide Thorp,s original plan for the interior decorations receives the endorsement of all the experts. She dispursed over s3O. 900 for this feature alone. Tier buainess ability is equal to her acute appreciation of the beautiful.
 I have never known an expositlon III which all worked together so har' nooniously and satisfactorily. Director General Buchanan has the absolute confidence of everybody connected witf the exposition. He is man or won derful energy, industry and executNe ability. He had a diplomatic tralnlnt before he received the appointment al Director-General for the Pan-Amerl ca. Exposition. He Is 9 man or a'h' presence, the best social position, large lS, til midnight to make the Pan- Ameri can Exposition what it is. Thefe IS nc doubt of it that considering its scope it is the most satisfactory exposition that has been held in this country, anc in point of artistic and skillful ar rangement exceeds anything in whicf the United States has taken part with in my recollection. It has been done by hard work, resistless energy and al a comparatively small cost. The states south of Mason and Dixon'' line who fail to make exhibits here VII have reason to regret it for years tt come. I am glad to see that many Southern States are falling into line and that our tobacco. cotton and ric' exhibits will be exploited in spite ol meagre appropriations, luke warm in
 terest and a good deal of pelitica wrangling, of which there is entirely too much in our section. The growtf of cotton mills. and the universal pros perity which the country now en1oyi will. sincerely hope, turn the atten

Mir Pearson did not like the tone in which he was addressed. 1t was about the time many of the colonists were beginning to think or separatinR themselves from Great Britain. and Mir. Pearson was one of the earlier patriots who had made up his mind at the first opportunity to throw off the yoke of George the Third. Instead of obeying his superior officer he stepped boldly out of the ranks, made an appeal to the other men to join him as their commander and form a company to fight for liberty. Nearly every member of the company fol- lowed him and Captain Pearson com manAed this body in many of the hard fought battles of the Revolution.

Accommodations.

A considerable degree of publicity has been given to the misleading ru- nor that the hotel and boarding house accommodations of Buffalo will not be adequate to the crowd who will visit the Pan-Amerlcan Exposition. Inves- tigation shows that nearly all the private house holders in the city will be willing to take roomers or boarders at reasonable rates. Several new hotels are now nearly completed.

the fact that in butter thus trestoG v very iArga lSGacItv4I .ai .i..s4lAcf vt micro-organisms present is effeete1. There can be little doubt, theretere. that the common butter microbes 70 not by any means regard salt as their elixir of life!
 In this country boracic acid is said to be extensively used in butter ax q preservative or antiseptic agent. whIIa in the United States recent public health document states that none wa4 reported to have been found In the samples of butter examined. This ia probably due to the fact that in Amex~l lea there exists a strong prejudice n favor of salt butter, whereas in this country the use of salt butter is the exception and not the rule. Hence n America salt can be used as a preser- vative instead of the boracic acid ems ployed for that purpose in England-

 The Chinese distort the feet of their
 women to keep them at home. For the same reason the Venetians form erly compelled their women when
 abroad to wear clogs of such size and

 Many old houses in Holland have a | special door which is never opened save on two occasions when there Is a marriage or a death in the family. The bride and groom enter by this door; 1t ia then nailed or barred up until death occurs, when it is opened and the body is removed by this exit.

 Every Chinese temple Is provided with one or more sacred drums. the sound of which is supposed to sootha and keep quiet the great dragon that upholGs the earth.

The first tremor is. therefore, instantly fol- lowed by a universal drumming as IS never heard in China on any other oc-
