BUTTER AND HEALTH.
IL Ii Good for Most Delicate Persons
and Cheaper Than Cod
liver OIL.

Butter is so common a commodity
that people use it and scarcely ever
think what wonderful value lies at
their hand in the pats Of dainty yell
low cream fat. Of course they know
that it is useful in many branches OF
cookery. and that without its aid the
table would be bare of its thinly cut
bread and butter, its delicate cakes,
and it's other accessories. Beyond
these uses the value Of butter is thing
only vaguely thought Of.
But this delicate fat is as valuable
as the dearer cod-liver oil for weakly
people, and doctors have frequently
recommended the eating of many thin
slices of bread, thickly spread with
butter, as means of pleasantly TAX
ing into the body tissues one of the
purest forms of fat it is possible to
get, says a health journal.
Butter is a carbon, and all excess Of
It is stored up as fat in the body. 1t
gives energy and power to work to
those who eat heartily of it. So it is
not economy at table to spare the but
ter, even to the healthy folk, for any
one afflicted with consumption, butter
cookery, if plenty of fat can be digest
ed, is one Of the best ways of curing
the disease if it is in its early stages,
or of keeping it at bay if advanced.
Butter is not simple fat, composed
of oil merely one sort. 1t is mixture
of no less than seven different sorts of
fat, and no more complex oil can be
taken than this is.

MODERN CARTHAGE.
City the Stalking Camel Now
Draws American Plows.

For the first time in many centuries
something modern has appeared on the
site of the ancient city of Carthage.
Here, where once hourished the arts of
war and peace, is vast, lonely plain.
OF the streets through which the con-
uuering Hannibal marched in triumph
nothing now remains but the shade
less wheat-fields. Popular Mechanics
describes the stalking camel Flooding
along drawing the modern American
pillow or cultivator.
The soil is as rich as it was on the
day when the Phoenicians founded the
city, and the American and his indus
tries have found their way to the his
toric spot where the Romans wrought
such devastation in their eonquests.
Americans, in charge of native work
men, may be seen directing the use OF
the modern farming implements in
harvesting or tilling the soil. These
machines are a source of wonder to the
natives, who for generations employed
only the cTudest of farm implements.
The place is on the northern coast OF
Africa, about ten miles from the pres
ent city of Tunis. Americans find the
market there for their inventions a
lucrative one.

PLAYED CARDS FOR THE LOOT.
RemIniscence of One of the Vene-
zueInn Revolutions Related
by Mr.. Labouchere.

Few men in the world have had as
varied an experience as Henry Labou-
chere, the English publicist and writer,
says the Chicago Chronicle. He has
been in every part of the world and
has passed through many scenes OF ex-
element and adventure. He was in
Venezuela several years ago when one
of the periodic revolutions was in prog
ress, and thus relates an incident that
fell under his notice:
"a battle took place on the plaza
one afternoon" said Mr.. Labouchere,
"and l watched it from a grass han-
mock on the terrace in front OF my
hotel. The government forces were
put to fight and was Joined by my
revolutionary friends keen from the
fight.
Later one of the fallen ministers
visited us and said he could show us
where 100000 silver dollars were hid
den. He was as good as his word, and,
patriotism being sunk by my friends in
obedience to the comforting moral OF
the place, BE kind to ourselves it was
proposed to divide the swag.
81 said: No, don't do that; it might
offend the people. Play for it'll which
was agreed to. The government man
was allowed to come in and we played
and the government man won it all
to the last dollar. So, after all, nc
harm was DONE"

COMPOSITION OF SEA WATER.
Knowledge of 1t May Afford n Means
of Estimating the Ago
of the Earth.

At the Canadian institute in Toronto
recently an interesting address was
delivered by Prof. A. B. Macallum on
the composition of ocean water.
The amount of sodium in the ocean,
said Prof. Macallum, furnished a
means of estimating the period that
had elapsed since the formation of
watery vapor on the earth. The an
nual discharge of sodium into the sea
was calculated to be 155,00o,O0O tons,
and the quantity of that element in the
seas of the earth was estimated by
Joli at 14,151, 900, 600, 900, 900 tons, which,
diviSed by the former, would give o.
100000 years as the age Of the sea wa
ter.
The discharge Of sodium into the
sea had in the past been going on uni
formly, says the Toronto Mail and En-
pire. By reason of the proportions Of
the elements, sodium, potassium, cal
cium and magnesium, in the sea con-
stantly changing at q uniform rate
and owing to the facts that in the
vertebrates, e. g., the dog, and in the
blood of the lobster, etc, a certain
fluid was found which contained these
elements in the same proportion as
when their progenitors had left the
sea and taken up their abode on the
land could be calculated how long
period had elapsed since the verte-
brates had become land animals. That
the proportions Of these elements in
this fluid in these animals had never
changed was due, he thought, to the
influence of heredity.

NEVER VICTIMS OF CUPID.
There Are More Bachelors Than Old
Maids in the Census Emu
meratiOn.

It is estimated that there are now
in the United States 100000 more
single men of manageable age than
there are single women, the official fig
ures being as follows: Unmarried men,
1O,44S, 1853; unmarried girls and women,
7,573,S19. The male population Of the
United States, through the excess of
male immigration and the higher male
birth rate, is more than 100000 in ex-
cess of the female. The span of life is
on the average, longer for woman
than for a man and the manageable
age for women is several years younger
than the average for men. AS a con-
sequence OF this the numberof widows
is very largely in excess of the number
of widowers, the figures being 100000
and 100000 respectively, says the San
Francisco Argonaut.
There are more divorced women who
nave not remarked than there are
divorced men, and for all these reasons
the number of the single men of mar
riageable age is larger than the num-
Der of single women. In New York it
is 100000, in Pennsylvania 100000, in
Ohio 10000, in Illinois 100000, in Cali
fornia 50,000, in Texas 100000 and in
Kansas $4,000. In Massachusetts, the
number of unmarried men exceeds the
number of unmarried women by only
few thousand. In Utah there are 49,
900 unmarried men and $4,000 unmar-
ried women of manageable age. In
Washington, the capital, the number
of single men is $4,000 and of single
women about the same.

ORIGIN OF "GREENHORN."
Term Used by Hunters Many Years
Ago to Designate Deer with
Ailing Antlers.

The democratic cloakroom of the
senate held a congenial company Of
whom Mr.. Vest, of Missouri, was the
center. There were scintillations and
pithy "reminiscences, the conversation
eventually turning to former Senator
Turpie, of Indiana. All agreed that
he was a man of erudition, and some
one ventured that Mr.. Turpie, now re-
siding among his own people in the
Hoosier state, is one of the best in
formed in bellies lettres of any man
who ever came to the senate, says the

demonstrates what a marvel Mr.. Tur-
pie is in his fund of information.
was once in a company where ques-
tion arose as to the origin of the term
'greenhorn.' The question went
around until it reached Mr.. Turpie.
