PRESERVING MEAT BY STEAM.
An Australian Method Which is EN-
ployed on Steamships.

From the st. Louis Globe Democrat
Keeping meats sweet and pure in a re-
frigerator by means OF steam sounds a bit
queer doesn't it?' 1 was asked by George
L. Cameron. superintendent of meat
packing establishment, who continued in
explanation without awaiting my answer.
Yet that is method now in vogue on the
big steamers which carry meats from this
country and from Austria to Europe. Meat
placed in refrlgerators where the atmos-
phere is kept continually at an average
temperature Of from sc to 40 degrees will
remain free, but not entirely untainted for
an indefinite period.
II think Australians solved the problem
first. They worried over the matter for
long. long time. and adopted expedent aft
er expedient. tried experiment after expert
ment. but all without avail, until someone
thought of using steam to volatilize the
gases which caused these annoying condi-
tons and draw them off. steam pipe was
placed in wooden duet at the bottom of
refrigerator chamber stored with meat: the
gases of this kind are low-lying and the
duct led directly to the brine tanks This
experiment occurred at Sydney, and for
eighty-nine days the refrigerator compart-
ment was kept closed at the end of which
time ii was opened. the meat drawn forth

REAL SENTIMENT.
Is 1t Right to Call Deep Emotion
"Sheer SentimentalityP'

From the London Queen.
Some years ago I should have been
tempted to declare that the exact female
thema be upon him--did not exist. Today
/ dare not go so far in assertion. For to-
day there be women-to me they seem sex
less as hockey sticks or golf clubs-who
take very much the same line. They speak
as if passion might be doused like the burg
lars glim. by diet; as if alteration could be
killed by hearty regimen of grape-nuts, a
broken heart be meEded with platinum. One
such charmer recently said to tortured
sister, whose life had been laid in ruins by
man: My dear, take up typewritingp'
The remark would appeal to the practical
fool.
1t is often assumed nowadays that any
real deep emotion is "sheer sentimental
ity." But sentiment Is not sentimentality,
whatever the practical one may below with
machine-made eloquence. There are peo-
pie and often they are the very finest the
mcst sincere the most delicate the most
truly human. who. having once given their
hearts can never take them back. They do
love once. and once for all.
Matthew Arnold-no fool, / fancy-wrote
the Twin Soul that halves ones own
hear the practical mans guffaw. The very
word soul always sets him Off Never
theless. roar his ribs out as he may 1t is
a fact that thousands. millions Of people,
both men and women, go through life con-
sciously. or unconsciously. seeking that
twin soul. The seeking is hope. The find
ing Is joy, as perfect as exists in this un-
certain world.

HOW SALMON RUN.
Big and Little Streams Literally
Choked with Fish.


Tnag gine yourself on the scashore in
Alaska. in the month of September, ram
bling on for the pleasure of it. and picking
up curious shell now and then. You see
ahead a fresh water stream which is in your
path AS you approach you surprised to
find the whole stream filed, crowded, with
struggling salmon. If you follow the
stream back from the shore a mile or so.
you will find it literally packed with sal
mon all the way although the water is so
shallow that no fish is more than half COW
cred. Your surprise is increased when you
approach near enough to touch them with
your foot and find that they pay not the
slightest attention to you. They struggle
fiercely on up the stream. the females to
deposit their eggs, the males to protect the
females. All are intent upon that mad,
suicidal rush up the stream. 1t Is suicidal
because not a single salmon out of those
hundreds before you ever comes back alive.
From the outset they neither eat nor rest,
and as you follow them up stream yeu soon
see the effects of their battle. Their flesh
is knocked off against the stones; here you
see one striving desperately against his fell
lows, with nothing left of his once powerful
tail but the bones, and many of them are
broken; the flesh may be falling from his
back or torn from his belly. still he fights
on until death. If it is female you may
see the eggs dragging from an ugly cash in
her side. one fin is torn off, two more are
useless, every effort to propel herself leaves
a trail of blood, but she swims on with the
rest
You are sickened by such a sight, and
conclude that the shallowness of the stream
will account for the condition of the fish.
So you go to a larger stream, thirty feet IN
width and eight feet in depth; here you find
thousands of salmon lashing the water into
foam in their efforts to distance one an
other. They are swimming packed layer on
layer. like sardines. Here the conditions or
the smaller stream are repeated on a larger
scale. The fish are not only torn to pieces
by rocks, but destroy one another. II you
pick up one that appears whole he Will fau
to pieceS of his own weight.

A Dukes Treasures.
From the London Chronicle.

In Illustration of the lavishness with
which Chatsworth House is endowed with
art treasures and of the distrait element
which Is supposed to be a feature of the
Duke of Devonshire's mind an amusing
story went the round of the French press
at the time of the last Paris exhibition
The duke, it was said, was strolling
through the loan section of the English
exhibits with a friend and stopped to
look with admiration at a porphyry table
of matchless beauty. He examined It long
with the eye of connoisseur and at last
exclaimed: 81 wonder who is the owner
of such beautiful specimen of work

him." His companion, who had consulted
the catalogue. handed 1t to him with a
smile. 1t contained the information that
the table came from Chatsworth House
and was lent by the Duke of Devonshire,

How Nerve Energy is Wasted.


So many people needlessly and recklessly
waste their nerve energy. They drum the
chair or the desk with their fingers or tap
the floor with their toes. They hold their
hands. They sit in a rocking chair and
rock for very dear life. If they go upstairs
they make the whole body do the work that
was intended only for the legs If they
write or sew they get down to it with a
vengeance and contract their brows and
wrinkle their foreheads and grind their
teeth.
If they have an unusual task to do they
screw and contract and contortion every
muscle of the body. making themselves
tense and rigid all over, when the work
perhaps required but one set of muscles or
perhaps the mind only. as the case may be-
Wasting nerve energy. Frittering it away.
Little things to be sure. But little things
have way of adding themselves up into
