A Saving Quality.

Gilbert White, the naturalist, was
once university proctor, and Of his
performance Of the office this anecdote
Is told: "On his rounds one evening
White discovered an undergraduate ly-
ing on the ground, sleeping the sleep of
intoxication, with his outer garments
removed and neatly folded up at his
side. The proctor awoke him and sent
him to his college with an order to
appear the next day for judgment.
The culprit turned up in a highly con-
trite frame of mind. White said to
him: You deserve an exemplary pun
ishment, but I observed one circum-
stance which shows you are not wholly
degraded. Your clothes were folded
up by your side, indicating habits of
care and neatness which appear in
compatible with habitual degradation.
l shall therefore say no more'"

SALTED BUTTER.

Why 1t Keeps Better Than Butter
That Is Fresh.
Why does salt butter keep better
than fresh butter? We must first real
lie that the bacterial population of a
moderate sized pat of butter may be
reckoned by millions, that tiny lurlp

has been known to be tenanted by
nearly 48.OOO,O0O, that, in fact, in CON
Stunning 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 barriers
to their ingress by taking proper pre-
cautions in the production of milk and
second. in the conduct Of the processes
involved in the manufacture and distri.
button of the finished article.
Included in these processes is the adj
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
pO"eIS VI the Duller OF, Ill OtueF WOFuS,
to suppress to large extent the activi-
ties of the butter bacteria. That salt
does act in this manner is shown by
the fact that in butter thus treated a
very large reduction in the number of
micro-organisms present is effected
There can be little doubt. therefore.
that the common butter microbes do
not by any means regard salt as their
elixir of life.
In England boracic acid is said to be
extensively used in butter as preserv-
ative or antiseptic agent, while in the
United States a recent public health
document states that none was report
ed to have been found in the samples
Of butter examined. This is probably
due to the fact that in America there
exists strong prejudice in favor of
salt butter. whereas in England the use
of salt butter is the exception and not
the rule. Hence in America salt can
be used as preservative instead of the
boracic acid employed for that purpose
in England.
The densely populated condition of
butter above referred to Is not to he

SINKING SPELLS
Mrs. W. 7. Clark. of Rome, N. Y,
Tells how She Was Cured.

Indigestion and stomach trouble have
many results that are not always
readily traced to their real cause.
Sometimes the kidneys are apparently
affected but more often an rregularity
of the hearts action produces far
more alarming symptom. The cause
is easily explained and is removed when
the stomach trouble is cured. A case
In point is that of Mrs. W. L. Clark, of
S18 West Thomas street, Rome, N. I.
She says:
ssTo begin with, I had gastritis,
which brought on sinking spells for
about an hour every morning. was
very weak and nervous and finally was
compelled to take to my bed. My ILL
ness began in the spring of 1897 and
continued for about four months.
I suffered greatly from the stomach
trouble and nervousness, but what al
armed me most was the sinking feel
ing at the heart.
81 had read about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People and when some of
my friends recommended the pills very
highly decided to give them trial. I
bought one box and by the time this
was used up the sinking spells had
ceased. I felt better but continued
taking the pills until had used twelve
boxes. I still keep the pills in the
house for I believe that they are a
splendid medicine"

A dusty, stony way, whose bord' FIRING sod
10 thick with blackberries and goldenroe,
Abrupt, bare hills side looking down,
And from the other you see the town
Follow the rivers course through meadows green,
Ger which thick woods and marble lodges lean.
A little farther, where the road descends,
brooks soft tinkle with some bird song blends
Ozone from its edge the dear old DANES small
cot
Half hidden by quaint fowers); lush bergamot
Makes sweet its banks. its depths the boys still
swim
Or watch the minnows from some willow limb.
Upon its bridge how often l have stood,
Watching the west, whose glory seemed to food
With tenderest light the poorhouse and the graves
Beside it-turn to gold the brooklet's waves
Till from the hill, oh, dearest sight of all,
I saw my father, and heard him call!
He came with sturdy stride and swinging pail
My hand in his-told my days whole tale
OF joys, that meath his bright smile seemed to
grow,
While lessened was my every childish
As his sweet words fell my soul like balm
While walked homeward through the fragrant
calm.

Il have already told you, pasha, that I

And he was perhaps not far wrong.
Madame was of many shifts. 1t was
she who in the great South African
war had been a spy of fame. Courted
by the highly placed and susceptible in

South Africa, she had kept Paul Kru-

a hooking nod, but shall not marry

The pasha withdrew, with never a

there was a clatter of horses on the
roadway as he and his staff galloped
off up the little street.
"Bah! murmured Sophronia as she
peeped out at him through the jalou-
sizes. "Not a bad looking man either

from the window, Sophronia Valoffsky
