Youth and Happiness.

After all, it is open to dispute
whether or not people are happy
when they are young. Only one boy
in town can carry water for the ele.
plant; and he is oppressed by the
thought that his father will spring
the detrimental to morals" argu
ment on him just before the big show
opens.
Perhaps, to dim it all, there is
more pleasure in seeming young when
you know that you are not than in
being so.
Else why the complexion remedies,
wrinkle chasers. and hair retainers,
to say nothing of false teeth and other
falseness?

JOKE ON SENATOR HoAR.
Example Of Massachusetts, statesman's
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

Senator Hoar's absent-minded ex-
plot last week of securing the passage
by the senate of a measure that had
already become law recalls the story
Of the senator, which is sometimes told
In these parts. He was at a private
dinner attended by number of public
men and citizens. One of the guests
had Just finished an anecdote, and the
laugh had scarcely subsidized when Mr..
Hoar started in, saying that reminded
him of something, and told over again
the same story that the company had
just listened to. Mr.. Hoar's telling
was naturally great success, for
everyone realized at once that he had
been thinking of other matters when
The story was being told the first time,
out had caught barely enough of the
hing to be reminded of the anecdote
as it lay in the recesses of his own

lnconclusive Tests.

There are some tests made that

full if they should be considered when
determining a principle of practice.
Such is the report OF test that
comes from Australia. The test was

the milk of Jerseys, Ayshires and
Holsteins. The per cent of fat in the
skimmilk was lowest in the case Of
Jersey milk, and highest in the case
of Holstein milk, but, the report adds.
'the difference was not marked"
Here is the point: There must have
been some difference and the fact
that sit was not marked" leads one
to assume that it was mere chance

THE EFFECTS OF LIGHTNING.
Completely Strips Bark From Tree
No Trace of Fire.

No Trace OF Fire.
That much valuable knowledge as
to the effects of lightning may be
gained by a study of trees that have
been struck by it is maintained by
many English scientists. A tree
which stood for many years on the
side of road few miles from Wal.
lingford, in England, was struck by
lightning during violent storm a
short time ago and utterly destroyed.
Mr.. Percy E. Spielmann examined it a
few hours afterward and found that
the bark had been completely strip
ped off and flung to one side. and
that a large branch had also been
torn away and splintered. He looked
for some token of fire but was unable
to find any. He noticed, however,
that the inner surface OF the bark
was marked longitudinally with thin
wavy lines, very close set, of which
the crests were about quarter of an
inch apart. He took several photo
graphs of the ruined tree and he re-
CARDS them as most useful, since they
show clearly the rending effect OF
lightning on a fibrous tissue.

Nelson's Lonu Speech.

Senator Nelson of Minnesota holds
the record so far this congress for a
long-distance talk. His speech occu-
pies thirty-eight pages in theCongres-
sional Record. He held the floor for
six days and spoke on an average of
two and one-half hours day, or fff.
teen hours in all. A senate expert at
figures has discovered that 1t required
60,S00 words to express Senator Mel
sons sentiments on this bill. His long
occupancy of the floor became joke
in the senate end he became known
and was frequently addressed as "the
regular order"

Luncheon fer Statesmen.

A Washington correspondent who Is
new in the business heard Senator Al
ger of Michigan invite Burrows, his
colleague, to luncheon the other day.
The latter accepted with such alac-
rity that the correspondent thought
he two millionaires were accustomed
70 indulge in elaborate luncheons.
They linked arms and went down to
the senate restaurant. 1t was indeed
an elaborate function. This was the
menu: Senator Burrows-one spoon
full of hominy; one glass OF milk, Sen
ator Alger-One cup of tea; one dish
OF tapioca pudding.

composltlon Of Sleeps Milk.

There have been numerous analy.
SEES made of Sleeps milk. The infor-
nation on this point is increased by
some experiments made in France
this past year. Altogether III sam
pies were analysed. These were not
taken from one flock at one period,
but were obtained in six different To-
calities, and they were taken during
a period covering three months. The
results should therefore be about the
average for that region. The milk
proved to be very rich, both in fat
and in total solids. Ten samples
taken in the region of Roquefort
showed the following average com.
position: Solids, 1879; fat, 6.9S;
sugar, 5.53; casein, 5.54; ash, 0.s6;
lime, 0.2s; acid, 2.66 per cent.

and Mrs. "Bill" Sewall when they ar
rive in Washington in February. Mr..
Sewall is the guide who has had the
honor of plotting the President on his
frequent hunting trips in the Maine
woods.
While in Maine last summer the
President invited the old guide to join
his party, and later an invitation was
extended to Sewall and his wife to
visit Washington in February, and it
was promptly accepted.
The most important feature of the
guides visit will be to attend one of
the large receptions at the White
House. The luncheon and dining in
formally with the Presidents family
in the state dining room will be as
great, il not the greatest, event in the
life of the guide. There will be horse
back rides with the President after
p. m, but the official duties of the
chief executive will hardly admit of
the briefest hunting expedition into
Virginia.

Referred Across the Sea.

A gentleman in want of house for
the autumn months, in a little town
on the west coast of Ireland, found a
commodious residence close to the
beach. On consulting the house
agents board, he read: House to
let, apply opposite"
"Opposite!" cried he. "Why, the
house faces the sea-"
On making inquiry he found that the
house belonged to a New Yorker, who
was open to receive offers.

In the Agricultural Department OF

in the churning of butter which yield

Butter churned into small grains

considered that low water content

This is the degree of churning now
taught by nearly all dairy instructors,
Another result was obtained that
might have been expected sweet
cream when churned showed a great
er loss of fat in the churning opera
ton than did the churning of ripened
cream. This loss was ascertained by
testing the butter-milk. This is
factor to be taken into consideration
in the making of sweet cream butter,

1t is in some parts of Europe.

The Butter and Cheese Trade OF 1902.
Butter makers have had no occasion
to complain Of prices during the yeaI
just past. Oversupplies in cold stor
age in January forced some dealers tc
sell out at little or no margin OF
profit, but later prices advanced
strongly reaching 80 cents in April
the highest price paid for butter in
Chicago in several years. The pas
sage of the oleomargarine law sus'
tanned the market during May, June
and July, but the abundance OF feed
produced by summer rains increased
the supply and prices declined about
three cents. In October, November
and December, earlier values were
restored and extra creamery sold as
high as 20 cents per pound, at which
figure it now stands. The local de-
mand at Chicago has been the heaviest
in years. 1t is estimated that since
March LIST 10000 more 60-pound tubs
of butter were received and marketed
than during the same period in 1901,
the increase amounting to almost 20
per cent. During the same time New
York made gain of only per cent.
The cheese trade of Chicago for
1902 shows gain of about 10 per
cent. June brought the lowest price
of the year, viz: 9A cents for ched'
dars. Fall brought so brisk a demand
that there was no chance for an &C.
emulation of stocks. Very little
cheese was exported from this market
the supplying of foreign demands be-
ing left to New York and Canada.
