There is presented to our readers
with this weeks issue an illuminated
supplement, containing striking
likeness of Right Rev. Robert S. VIII
hams, d. d., Bishop of the Colored
Methodist Episcopal Church. Bishop
Williams is one of the strong men of
our race. His life reads like a ro-
nance, touched by master hand, and
unged by the brightest fancy of a
vivid imagination.
He was born in 1858, in Caddo Par
lSh, Louisiana, and he laid the foun-
dation of his career by the early disci-
pine derived from the somewhat
meagre facilities of the neighboring
schools. Yet his quick perception and
natural aptitude surmounted all the
difficulties and his extraordinary DOW
er assimilation soon made him ready
Tor The higher supeTstructure of learn
ing, which with his subsequent theo-
logical training rounded out his edu-
cation for his career.
The Bishop was always a thorough
man and conscientious one. His
ambition to live a higher life led him
to take full courses at Wiley Universi-
", Marshall, Texas, and at Howard
University in this city, at a cost of
severe deprivation and self denial, but
with brilliant results. He Joined
church IN 1876, at the age of eighteen
ana five years later entered the minis
try of the Colored Methodist Episco-
pal Church. satisfied that that was his
lie work and the vocation in which
he could render most efficient service
to his fellow men.

IN spite of his youth, he received

CHARMING FANCY WORK.
The ART Of Tatting, So Popular In the
Days 81 Our Grandmothers, Again
Coming Into Favor.

There never was time when lace
was so much In request. and there Is
q renaissance of some of the older
kinds, such as netting. crochet and
tatting. The only requisites for tat
ting are bone shuttle. a crochet hook
and coarse thread. In choosing the
shuttle select one which has the two
halves coming together at the points
SO as not to let the thread escape
while working. and also that 1t shall
not catch In the work. The two parts
should Just meet, so that the thread.
in pushing through. should cause a
slight click.
The two illustrations OF the hands
show the way the thread is passed
round the hand and how the shuttle
should be held. Having filled your
shuttle with thread. take 1t in your
right hand between thumb and first
finger. take the end of the thread with
your left and hold in position firmly
with thumb and forefinger and pass
the thread outward around the fingers.
which should be spread out. and bring
II round to the end and hold both with
finger and thumb firmly, as in Fig. 1;
pass the thread over to the left and
bring the shuttle down on the right
side Ga the thread he'd pretty taut by
the spread fingers. carry 1t under the
thread and bring It up on the left side
between the taut thread and the shut
tie thread (which was thrown over
from the finger and thumb). This will
make single knot.
The spread fingers must now be
relaxed and the shuttle thread held
taut to bring the knot into position
and 30 that the thread round the hand
shall be over the shuttle thread and
allow the latter to be drawn back and
forth through the middle of the knot.
This so far is only single knot. Now
let the shuttle thread hang loose on
the right side of the thread around
the hand and pass the shuttle on the
left under the thread and bring up on
the right. as in Fig. 2: relax the fin
gers, tighten the shuttle thread and
carefully draw up close to the other
single knot. Now you have double
knot. See that the shuttle thread
comes through the middle: otherwise
when you have all your knots made
the thread would not draw, and II
would, therefore, be no use.

FOOD AFFECTS BdrrBR.
This Feet Ia Now Recegni.ed ~ sci-
entists and Dsirypea Here
and Abroad.

Butter product OF a COW cannot be In
creased by feeding fatty substances, but
the quality Of the butter can be always
affected In that way. For this reason
the. chemists are having no little diff
Guilty In determining the purity Of but
ter when the cows have been fed on GER
tain foods. such as oil cake. II Is found
on analysis that toward the end OF
cows lactation the volatile acids in the
butter fat become few. 1t has also been
found by Swedish professor that cows
exposed to cold and wet weather give
butter fats that have in them COM
paratively small amount of butyric acid.
Even the Dutch butter made In the fall
OF the year when the nights are cold and
weather conditions bad have such a
small amount Of volatile acids in them
that It has ofen been supposed that the
butter was mixed with oleomargarine.
We have not infrequently seen butter
in this country that appeared to have
no more flavor than oleo. In fact the
writer was so sure at one time that he
had been sold oleomargarinesfo for but
ter that he sent sample to the Mich
igan agricultural college for analysis.
It proved to be pure butter. When pas
ture conditions are good the proportion
Of volatile acids is high and this gives
a butter Of high flavor. When the cows
are stabbed and well fed in winter tho
volatile acids again appear in the but
ter to an appreciable extent. Nearly all
foods have some influence on the flavor
of butter. 7R
Green fodder gives butter that is
low In the melting point and quite rich
In volatile acids-therefore 1t has high
flavor It is somewhat surprising to
note that silage gives a butter that has
a high melting point. and the same is
true of hay. The feeding Of grains favors
the increase of volatile acids. Oats, cot
ton cake. peas and beans are beneficial
in their effects on butter. Feeds con-
tanning much sugar exert rather de-
teriorating effect on the butter fat.
Cows that have been fed on cottonseed
meal show reaction for cottonseed oil
when analysed. up to one per cent. of oil.
It follows that an analyst might declare
that butter had been mixed with cot
topseed oil when the COW had only been
fed cottonseed meal. However, II the
analysis showed more than one per
cent. It might be regarded as reasonably
certain that the oil came in otherwise
than through the COW. But in the case
Of sesame oil test carried on in Eng
land showed no reaction for that oil
after the sesame cake had been fed for
two months. In some of the countries
Of Europe sesame oil must be put into
oleomargarine so that It can by that
means on analysis be distinguished from
butter. -Farmers' Review. y = -
