aliens. . Only 1893 per cent out of a
population Of 4,472, 103 are aliens The

Irish people, on the other hand, aggre-
gate 205,064, or 1855 per cent, and
patriotic Scots, backed up by police
statistics, charge this remnant and
their connections with committing 50
per cent of the crimes annually re-
corded on the far side Of the Cheviots.

defect in the quality of Canadian but

country is in regard to the matter of

dress. The causes which give rise to
this defect are many and not always
easily. located, but the: buttermaker
has a great advantage over the cheese
maker, inasmuch as he has it within
his power to control the favor Of the
butter to a very great extent BY the
use of good favored fermentation
Starters" and by proper attention to
the ripening Of the cream. His failure
to do this is one reason why the but
ter is often inferior in flavor. Butter
makers must study this question of
rlpen1ng cream and the use of start
ers. The trouble is that very often
the starter produces bad favor
instead of a. good one. When the

Rough on the Choir.

When the Rev. Dr. John Phelps Tay.
lor, an ex-professor in Andover Theo-
logical seminary, was pastor of a Con.
gregational church in New England
city, he was noted as being perfectly
courteous and exceedingly considerate
OF the feelings of others. So, how he
came to make the faux pas recorded in
this story of him is past understand.
ing.
A soprano singer, who aspired to a
position in the church choir, had re.
celved permission one evening to sing
a solo. The organist was not pleased
with the arrangement, and he played
the accompaniment to the somewhat
long selection as loudly and noisily as
possible. When the solo came to an
end, it was followed almost without
pause by the passage of Scripture
which DIR. Taylor had selected for that
evening, and which began: sAnd when
the uproar had ceased."-New York
Times.

A Woman's Opinion Of a Man.


At a dinner of Federated Women in
st. Paul one of the gentle sex re-
sponded, as is not unusual on such &C.
casions, to the toast, The Ideal Man,
a~feminine equivalent to the hearty
masculine The Ladies-God Bless
EN-! not so generous and universal,
but the women seem to prefer to keep
within the limits of their Individual
experiences and not to toast the whole
sex. This speaker wished to honor
him., she said so, and uttered these
compliments: MAN is too capable.
He is the paragon of animals. On
his own ground he surpasses the lion
in magnanimity, the fox in acumen,
the parrot in repartee, the monkey in
versatility, the ant in thrift, the fish
in self-control, the spider in all that
goes to make up valued member Of
society. I dare say that, if all the
facts were known, man is more of an
absolute success than the mule!" Did
the lady think there was a kick COM
ing? 1t is not clear whether the al
fusion was to the mules firmness of
mind or of heel.

Estate He Owned.

With tomb worth 5000 900 waiting
to receive his body Robert A. John
ston, surviving member of the once
well-known New York dry goods firm
of ]. & c.. Johnston, is spending his
last years in poverty and is living in
a barn on his former estate, between
Riverdale and Mount st. Vincent, on
the Hudson. Living the life of re-
cluse and cut off from his former
friends and associates, he gains a live
nhood as caretaker of the estate which
he owned for many years.
On high bluff in what is known as
old Calvary cemetery, within the linn
it's of Long Island City, stands the
Johnston tomb. It is built of huge
granite blocks and it's dome and the
surmounting figure of the Savior lean
ing on a cross make it conspicuous

above all other tombs or monuments
in the cemetery, and it looms up a
landmark for miles around.
It was erected in 1873 and cost fully
100000. In addition to the figure of
the Savior which surmounts the dome,
a marble figure of an angel is at each
corner of the roof.
The Johnstons retired from business
in 1888 and kept their wealth among
themselves, one brother willing his
property to the survivors. In the
tomb are the bodies of John Johnston,
head of the firm; Charles Johnston,
Terence Johnston and his wife and
Ann McGovern, a faithful nurse and
servant who accompanied the family
from Ireland to this country.
The Johnston fortune was supposed
to amount to several millions, yet
Robert Johnston now finds himself al
most penniless. He is permitted to
live in the barn on the estate by the
Central Trust company, which owns
the property. j.:
MIR. Johnston purchased the estate
at Mount st. Vincent twelve years ago,
when he was reputed to be worth two
millions. 1t comprises thirty-two acres.
On knoll overlooking the Hudson
he erected a comfortable house: This
he filled with paintings and statuary
and he lived there in seclusion.
His wealth gradually decreased, and
ten years later his property was sold
on foreclosure proceedings brought by
the Central Trust company. Declar-
ing himself to be still the owner of
the mansion and park-like grounds.
he continued to live there unmolested
by the trust company. One day the
house took fire and was burned to
the ground, together with it paintings
and statuary.
It was following this fire that Mr..
Johnston took up his home in the
building that once served as his barn.
Here he cooks his own food and
washes and mends his own clothing.
Still asserting his ownership of the
estate, he has had many clashes with

TREATMENT OF THE SOW.

Young sows should be literally fed
on flesh and bone-producing foods,
such as ground oats and wheat bran.
In summer they should have run on
clover, and in winter comfortable quar-
tiers, with access to the yard. It should
never be forgotten that exercise is
essential for breeding sows. Sows
should not be mated before they are
nine months old. At all times they
should be kindly treated. A good
brood SOW is worth caring for, as she
is more profitable than a brood mare.
Her progeny mature more quickly, do
not require such expensive stabling,
are exposed to less risks, and a ready
market is always obtainable for them.
Ii: winter a ration of grain roots and
clover hay, with access to a yard for
exercise, is an economical and suit
able way OF caring for brood sows.
The, narrowing pen should be roomy
and warm, with just q suficiency Of
litter. In very cold weather it is a
good plan to heat a couple of bricks
and put them In q basket, cover with
chan, and then put the young pigs
on this until all are %farrowed, when
they may be placed near the teats..
For the first twenty-fours hours after
narrowing give the SOW nothing but
perhaps q drink Of warm water, as
food or Stops may kill her. The act of
q SOW - eating her young is often the
fault of the owner IN feeding heat,pro-
ducing food prior to narrowing, and
giving little, or no exercise. Prof w
