When you buy cheese bear in mind
that all good cheese will be mellow to
the touch, yet firm. The rind will be Of
an even tint. elastic and free from puffs.
and a sample will reveal firm, close.
buttery grain of n nutty favor. Cheese
which feels SO hard that you cannot
dent it with your finger tips on the rind
IS either sour, sailed too heavily, skim
med or cooked too much. On the other
hand, If the rind breaks upon pressure
or does not spring back readily when
the finger is withdrawn this indicates
an oversoft article, caused by the slack
cooling of the curd or a want Of acid.
At best it will have an insipid favor
and will 'go off, as 1t ages.

Sir Richard Owen, the eminent anat-
omist, often had his skill in identify
ing bones tested. On one occasion his
friend and neighbor, Lord John Rus
sell, sent him a specimen for this pur-
pose, and the professor quickly pro-
nounccd it the thigh bone of pig.
This explanation of the query was sub
sequently offered by Lord John: Pres
ident Buchanan had sent from Amer
lea to the English statesman the pres
ent of u choice bears ham, and the
family had breakfasted off it several
times with much enjoyment. Some
how or other, however, suspicion was
aroused, and the bone was sent to their
scientific neighbor, with the result
stated."-Pall Mall Gazette.

Theoretically, every adult person Of
any intelligence wishes to be strong
and healthy. Practically. majority Of
them wish nothing Of the sort. They
would like to be well enough, but are
not willing to pay the price. though it
really costs nothing. When man gets
out of health he usually wants to get
something TO patch him up" so that
he can continue the foolish things
which have caused his bad condition;
hence the almost universal resort to
drug treatment instead Of the natural
means Of restoring and maintaining
Lcalth and strength. If a man is really
DESTROYS OF being naturally sound and
Lealthy he will try to stuly out the
means of becoming so. These means
ere all included in the seven founda-
ton principles Of practical hygiene
namely, exercise. rest. air, light, food,
drink and bathing. Club.

Liszt Playing Chopin,

AS List played his demeanor changed
in sympathy with the intensely dra-
matte content of the work. During the
somber fantasia his teeth were set, his
lips and massive jaw firm. his entire
face almost rigid, his gray eyes burned
with the composers inspiration, and his
body Strengthened out as he leaned
somewhat away from the keyboard.
When he struck the ponderous chords
of terror there was vehemence almost
diabolical in the sudden swoop of his
great hands, and the tremendous crash
fairly made one SILVER. His noStrils
became diStended, and his breath came
quickly, as one laboring under great ex-
element. Indeed, it seemed that the
spell of the great tone poet" with
whom in his earlier years he had been
on such friendly terms, had completely
mastered him, as though he felt him
self again in his presence and he
would once more prove his devotion to
Chopin's inspired art and show him
that List still knew and could portray
his innermOst soul.-Silas G. Pratt in

seedy looking man who appeared to

Health and Ability to Work Better
Than Money and Worry.

starting in life with no money, but
with good digestion, good sleep, good
health and ability to work i'll some
profitable employment, has what the
aged capitalist would be glad to ex-
change all his millions for.
What compensation Ii money for
sleepless nights and painful days or
the misconduct OF Gisslpated children?
Which brings the greater happiness,
the glitter, show, Jealousies and falsity
of fashionable life or the heartfelt
friendships which prevail so largely
in the homes Of the Industrious poor?
In how many OF the palaces of our mil
lionaires will you find greater Eappi-
ness III the parlor than in the kitchen?
How many milliOnaires will tell you
that they are happier now than when
starting in life without a dollar?
On the top of mountains we find
rocks and ice and snow. 1t is down in
the valleys that we find the vineyards.
