Some Survfvals of Fashion.

Man is unquestionably highly ra-
tional being. Still, If you travel and
observe, from the mouth Of the Danube
to the Golden Gate you will find most
men wearing coat with n useless col
lar marked with useless shaped
slash and decorated with two useless
buttons ar the small of the back and
one or two more useless buttons ut the
cuffs. The collar, the slash and the
buttons are there In answer to no
rational need. 1t is not common ell
mate nor common racial need of pro-
lection against climate that they repre-
sent, but common civilization whose
form and ritual they mutely confess.
Over this entire area those who aspire
to be Of the Brahman caste deck their
heads for wedding. funeral and feast
with a black cylindrical covering, suit
ed, so far as we can discern. neither TO
avert the weapon of the adversary or
the dart of the rain nor to provide
seat whereon man may sit and rest
himself. And as for the women con-
tanned within this same area we behold
that the amplitude of the sleeve, the
disposition OF the belt and the outline
Of the skirt all obey the rise and fall
Of one resistless tide which neither
moon nor seasons control.-Benjamin

Nelson's Only Defeat.

Nelson, like al the greatest COM
manders on sea or land. made his mis-
takes and h failures. but there is only
one instance on record of his having
been actually defeated in direct at
tack. This occurred ut Santa Cruz, IN
the Canary Stands, on July ~, 1897.
The place was very strongly fortified,
and Nelson, in the face of fire of fifty
guns from the batteries, attempted to
storm the town by boats. The attempt
was frustrated by the strength OF the
mole and the nonappearance of land
force which should have co-operated.
A hundred and fifty men were killed
and a hundred wounded on the British
side, and Nelson lost his right arm.
Two flags were also captured, and
these are still kept in the cathedral OF
Santa Cruz.

The Certainty of Fate.

The Mohammedans have fable
which they repeat to illustrate the GER
tainty Of fate. The Philadelphia Times
quotes it as having been told by Mr.
Robert Barr. the celebrated novelist.
A sultan was once asked by his IA
vorite, the grand yizier. for permission
to leave ut once for Smyrna, although
brilliant court fete was then in prog
ress. Upon beirg asked his reason for
such haste the vizicr replied:
Because | just saw the angel OF
death yonder in the crowd. He looked
at me so earnestly that | know he has
come for me. wish TO escape him.
"Go, Go ut once" said the sultan.
who then hockoned to the angel and
asked why the latter had looked SO
earnestly IT the vizier.
II was wondering" replied the angel
Of death, why he was here, for | have
orders to kill him in Smyrna"

The TRANQUIL Mind.

Who does not love tranquil heart,
sweet tempered. balanced life? 1t does
not matter whether ii rains or shines
of what misfOrtunes come 10 those pos
sessing these blessings. for they are al
ways sweet, serene and calm.
That exquisite poise of character
which we call serenity is the last lesson
Of culture; 1t is the Towering OF life,
the fruitage Of the soul.
1t Is as precious as wisdom, more
to be desired than gold-yea, than even
fine gold. How contcmpdble mere
money wealth looks in comparison
with a serene life-a life which dwells
in the ocean of truth, beneath the
waves. beyond the reach of tempests.
In the eternal calm.
How many people we know who
sour their lives, who ruin all that Is
sweet and beautiful by explosive tem-
pers, who destroy their poise of charac-
ter by bad blood. In fact it is Il ques-
tion whether the great majority of peo-
pie do not ruin their lives and mar
their happiness by lack Of self control.
How few people we meet in life who
are we'll balanced, who have that ex-
Quisite poisc which is characteristic of
the finished character.-Success.

Simnle. hut Effective.

The three little girls OF the three
summer boarders had been blucberry-
ing with the farmers daughter and all
four had come home with stains on
their skirts. The three little bOardcrs
flew upstairs to their respective moth
ers, and the farmers daughter repaired
to her mother in the kitchen.
Late in the afternoon the boarders
sought the farmers wife on the kitchen
porch.
"Oh, Mrs. Brown" said one Of them.
'just look ut the childrcn'S skirts.
We've tried that new powder on them
and three kinds of stain soap and ben
zine and everything we had to take
out those blueberry stains. and they've
only spread. Could you suggest any
thing more"
Mrs. Brown looked at the skirts and
shook her head.
I'm afraid you've set 'em in too
firm" she said. II got James out with.

The boarders gathered close around
as she exhibited James skirt, spotless
and unwrinkled.
"Oh, do tell us what you used" they
chorused eagerly, and mild smile Of
triumph played over Mrs. Browns
lean countenance.

Beef and Milk.

The evidence is overwhelming that,
other things being equal, the beet COW
of any breed is not the most profitable
COW to hold for milk production, and
every pound of held-over beef requires
an expensive feed of support. fail to
see why, if any one is going to grow beef
for profit in New Hampshire, he would
not get as much relative advantage from
using the best beef blood as the grower
could get in any section of the country.
Surely, if there is any profit to be secur-
ed in beef production, it is by getting rid
of the labor of milking, the care of the
milk and its marketing, and other labors
incident to dairying, and it seems to me
that if body is going to be bothered
with any dairy work at all, he should
work with the basis of good mich COW
and then if any accessory profit, either
temporary or continued, is wanted from
veal and beef, it should be sought by
mating the milch COW with an ultra type
of beef bull as first preference, or with
a good type of scrub bull as second,
and then kill the progeny as soon as It
has reached the desired size.-Dr. j. w.
Kitchen in Hoard's Dairyman

The worlds Largest Crab.

How would you like to have crab
like this squeezing your toe when you
90 bathing? The gigantic japanese
crab, measuring twelve feet, is proba-
bly, the largest crustacean in the world.
The specimen is type OF the spider
crab, which inhabits the waters OF the
group Of islands forming the empire
Of Japan. The body portion Is the size
Of half bushel measure, while Its
two great arms or 'feelers' could cas-
lily encircle the figure Of man. Its
eight arms or legs resemble huge
bamboo poles and are extremely elias
tic, and If strung into one line they
would reach to the top Of four story
apartment building. One Of the eX-
raordinary peculiaritles of this crab
is the faculty Of assuming disguise
by aflixing pieces Of seaweed ana
sponges to the body.

FILIPINO FUNERALS.

Picturesque For the Rich and Pa.
thetic For the Poor.
One Of the most striking things to be
seen on the streets Of Manila is Fill
pino funeral. II the deceased was
wealthy and had hosts of friends, the
funeral will be headed by band play
ing selections from comic operas. The
body Of the deceased follows In
hearse covered with black cloth ar
ranged in a grewsome design and
drawn by six black ponies, each be-
decked with headgear Of long black
feathers. The hearse will be followed
by men on foot wearing knickerbock-
ers and cooked hats, and after them
follow innumerable vehicles Of every
description. II the body is to be In
tered, the gravediggers will precede
the band, with their tools over their
shoulders.
Most Filipino funerals, however, are
more pathetic. The father Of a few
weeks old baby will trot out to the
cemetery entirely alone, with the little
white coffin balanced well on his head,
and if man had not the price Of q
vehicle his remains will be carried out
on bamboo poles by four Cinnamon,
and the coffin will be one that has seen
service before.
The natives have different ways Of
burial Some bodies are put into the
ground, while the larger majority are
placed in inches in the wall Of the
cemetery. \ slab cemented into the
opening of the niche coatains a brief
biography of the deceased.

Green Cut Bone for Eggs.

We may obtain some eggs for winter
use without feeding cut bone, but by It's
use we can materially increase the num-
Der. The owner of a hundred hens is
losing the price of good cutter every
winter depriving them of the material
which he would be able to furnish at a
very small cost. We have discovered
that for early hatched chicks it is indis-
pensable. To raise strong, healthy, Wig
orous chicks a substitute must be found
TO take the place of the bugs, worms,
etc., ON which they thrive SO well later
in the season. A mineral substance is
also necessary for hardening the frame
of the growing chick, and experiments
have proved that chicks fed on green cut
bone are never subject to leg weakness.
But it is as a winter feed for laying hens
that we derive nhe greatest profits from
it.-Mrs. Ada B. F. Parsons, in Iowa
Homestead,
