THE CHEESE WE EAT.

Many who pride themselves on their
gastronomic taste speak scornfully Of
American cheeses, but in perhaps nine
cases out Of ten they eat and praise.

product a cheese that never crossed
the Atlantic. Camembert and Brie.
according to recent writer, are the
only soft cheeses which are imported
in any considerable quantity, and they
are sometimes manufactured in the
United States. It is conceded that
American-made Camembert and Brie
are not 80 good as the foreign article,
but the cheese makers of New York
and New Jersey have come at length
to produce admirable Roquefort and

called, Of many other famous foreign
scheeses. At the Wisconsin experiment
station much attention has always
been paid to cheesemaking and the
various problems connected with the
industry. The station has studied the
manufacture of Edam cheese and can
produce cheese little If at all inferior
to that Of Dutch manufacture. French
cheesemakers, with the conservatism
acteristic Of rural Europeans, have
neglected to adapt their products to
the American market, and the Brie
cheese from abroad, for example.

smaller sizes. y, }-s4s
Only two or three English cheeses
are now imported in large quantities,
and the so-called English dairy cheese
is a native American product. Mean
while, enormous quantities Of Ameri-
can cheese are exported to Great
Britain. Some English cheesemakers

haps, put up their products in jars

Perfectly Good.

A horse dealer in a Scotch town
having hired horse to a solicitor,
the latter, either through bad usage
or some other cause, killed the horse,
when the dealer insisted upon pay
ment by bill if it were not convenient
to pay cash, says the Scottish Ameri-
can. The lawyer had no objection to
grant a bill, but said it must be at a
long date. The dealer told him to fix
his own time, when the man of law
drew a promissory note, making it
payable on the day of judgment. An
action was raised, when the solici-
tor asked the presiding judge to look
at the bill. Having done so, the judge
replied: 'tThe bill is perfectly good,
and as this is the day of judgment
L decree that you pay tomorrow"

His Sermon Reached Them.

When the Rev. Madison C. Peters,
at one time a popular Philadelphia
divine, was very young man, he
was invited to deliver the sermon
in a rural church on a Sunday in
June, says an exchange. The day
was extremely warm and a window
behind the pulpit had been raised in
the interests of ventilation Mr.
Peters laid the rather voluminous
manuscript of the sermon he had
prepared on the desk of the pulpit,
and began; but the third word had
not passed his lips when a breeze
from~the window caught the manu-
script and blew it's hundred odd pages
of note size paper scatteringly over
the expectant congregation. Mr.. Pc
tiers looked frustrated for a mo-
ment, then, recovering himself, he
smiled and said:
''Well. perhaps that sermon has
reached more of you than if it had
gone from the pulpit in the usual
manner"

THEs NIGHT EXPRESS.

From out the mist-clad meadows, along
the river shore,
The night exp1 ess-trafn whistles with eye
A trail OF smoke behind her enclouds the
That gilds the signing poplars and floods
the wide lagoon.
Through yellow fields of harvest and wav-
ing fields of corn
The night expresS.train rumbles with
whistle low and lorn.
The silent village harkens the sound it
knows WELL
And boys wait on the siding to hear the
engine bell,
While lads who used to 1oiter with visit
full steps and slow,
Await tonight a comrade who comes,
but will not go.
The train that brings to mothers the news
of sons who roam
Shoots red from out the marshes to bring
wanderer home.
With restless heart of boyhood we
. watched that headlight when
The whistle seemed to call us to dare the
world of men;
To leave the pillow and herd-whip for lads
with hearts of clay,
And while our blood was leaping be up
and far away;
To find the great world somewhere. to
wander wide and see
If men Of coast or mountain were better
men than we.
We heard the hoarse throat whistle. we
heard the engine bell
We saw the red eye blazing, we knew the
hot heart well,
But little could we reckon, gay-hearted
boys at play,
The horse that took us out to men would
bring us home one day.
That took US out at morning, with shin
ing wheels ahum
Would bring us home at evening, when
are glad to come.
: All! let my. fight be fercer. the little time
before
They bring me still and weary along the
river shore.
Then may the wheels turn swiftly be-
hind the eye of fire,
And may the bell ring gay1y that brings
me my desire.
The boys used to watch with will all be
there to see,
When I come home to rest me in the
ground that nurtured me.
To earth I digged in boyhood, through
fields I used to keep,
The lads who wrought beside shall
bear ue home to sleep.
From out the mist-clad marshes, along
the river shore,
Q With trail of smoke behind me and eye
of fire before;
And youths will watch with burning to
seek the world of men,
And thrill to hear the whistle that brings
me home again.
