The Market Price of Titles.

A dealer in foreign titles and decor
atiCns, in response to an inquisitive
inquirer, gives the price of the com
modities he offers. The title of count
costs 10000 francs; viscount, $4,000;
baron, $4,000. These are Spanish.
"Chevalier" is naturally much less
expensive, the highest order being for
sale at 5000 francs.
The red. black and white rosette of
the Red Cross, given for aid to the
wounded on land and sea, can actually
be purchased for 1900 francs; nc
further qualification being necessary
than the payment OF this sum. One
month suffices the intermediary to Sc.
cure this decoration to the candidate
who desires it. The higher titles
necessitate a delay of five or six
months.
Half the purchase money has 10 be
sent to the dealer in titles on applica-
ton.

Smart FrockS and Hats,

A very smart frock was made OF
rcse-pink muslin trimmed plentifully
with lace in Paris shade. 1t was worn
with a Leghorn hat: this had high
crown. There were two twists of
soft pink ribbon round it and an i'm
r1ense pink rose with foliage ap-
peared in front. Another charming
hat, worn with a pale blue muslin
dress, was in picture shape made of
wire, and covered with lace, string
coIored. The lace was slightly gagged,
and simulated short, narrow curtain
at the back. The high crown was
trimmed with twisted bands of soft
blue satin ribbon, big chou of the
ribbon being fastened in front little
to the left side. Tusser frocks should
be worn with coarse straw .'ats,
trimmed say. with cabbage roses and
a little foliage. otherwise with bands
of velvet Or ribbon.-Boston Globe.

Latest Demands of Fashion.

Radical changes in late summer
styles for women are few and fa- be-
tween, although the latest creations
in gowns are modelled after those of
the Louis periods. Yet some of the
changes while not in the extreme are
for the better and consist mostly of
softening and toning down.
A smart gown of the lingerie type
is accompanied by one of those three
quarter coats of delicate colored
taffeta and must be of a soft lustrous
quality. There is no lining and in
sertions of dainty lace give to them
a decidedly pretty effect. Some have
no lace trimmings at all but are made
with puffiings and other self trim
mings AS for gowns in general they
arc made with full skirts and the best
effects show the fullness at the bot
tom, which is attained by making the
skirt fiat about the hips and allowing
It to fall out below with killed eff
feet at the feet.

Continue to Paraffine Cheese.

The Canadians are continuing the
paraf1ning of cheese in spite OF the
fact that some of the consumers of
cheese both in Canada and England
are objecting to it. This course is
advised by the Department of Agrf-
culture of the Dominion of Canada.
There are a number of reasons why
paraffining is desirable, one of which
is that the cheese is less easily affect
ed by the conditions through which
it passes as to molds. A cheese that
has not been paraffined may be placed
where it is exposed to mold and in a
short time the mold will affect it so
seriously that it will be unfit for con-
sumption. There are numerous con-
ditions of this kind that have to be
faced; for the cheese are sent to many
parts of the world and into all sorts
of neighbOrhoods. The paraffined
cheeses will go into such places and
be unaffected The molds cannot
pierce the parafhine, for they find no
food in the medium through which
they must go. Molds do not go through
substances except as they grow
through. If the protecting coat be of
a substance that will not furnish food
for the development of molds, those
minute plants cannot live and thrive.
In the United States paraffining has
been adopted at some of our expert
ment stations, but we believe has not
been generally adopted in the fac,
tories where most of our cheese is
made.

A Good Example,

Many OF our milk producers can
well afford to take a hint from the
great bottling establishments as to
the care of their milk. We wish that
when the opportunity comes readers
OF this department would make it a
point to visit some of these places
and see the extraordinary care that Is
used in cleaning bottles that have held
milk. and in keeping clean all things
that are to contain milk. or that are
to come into contact with milk. What
these establishments do on a large
scale the farmer can do on small
scale. If it pays the big establish
ments to keep clean it will pay the
small establishments to do likewise.
Water and heat are used in great
abundance. 1t may not be possible
to have steam in the farm home, but
hot water can always be had in large
quantities. Hot water is destructive
OF germ life if it is left long enough
in contact with the utensils. The
man that has a good deal of milk to
handle will find it to his advantage
to arrange for tanks of hot water IN
places where he can use the water
when it is needed. Frequently the
little kitchen stove and the teakettle
are the only means of heating water,
and when the farmer has a dozen
cows, this way Of heating the water
makes it necessary to be very econ
omical in using it. The gallon of hot
water has to be diluted with cold wa
ter to make it go around, and the tenn
peraturo that results is not too high
for germ life to stand. In the big es-
tablishments the bottles and other
utensils receive soaking in hot wa
ter that will remove any kind Of
germ or put it in condition where
1t cannot develop. 1t is often said that
it is possible to have too much of a
good thing, but this is hardly true Of
hot water and heat in the cleansing
of utensils and vessels used in the
milk room. We believe that the men
that are running the big bottling es-
tablishments are setting an example
that should be followed as far as it is
possible to do so.
