s.ndial Maxima.


1t Is quite an Interesting thing to
learn that some OF our best known
proverbs and notices were originally
used In connection with sundials. Be
fore the days Ct watches and clocks,
when dials and sun marks were among
the rude means of reckoning time, 1t
was prevailing custom to inscribe
them.
Among the maXims traceable to this
source are. Make hay While the sun
Shines" "The longest day must end"
and "All things do wax and wane."
Sundials spoke the truth, as may be
inferred from historic one which was
placed on st. Paul's cross, in London,
and which proclaimed, Il number none
but sunny hours" This no one will
doubt who has had occasion to consult
a dial on an overcast day.
A famous dial in Sussex, England,
bore four famous notices applicable to
the flight Of time and the breyity of
life. They were as follows: AFTER
darkness, light" "Alas, how swifty'
Il warn whilst move" and $50 passes
life"
Another old sundtal spoke petulant.

''sirrah, be gone about your business 81

A Sensitive Hor.e.

Harsh treatment, though it stop short
OF inficting physical pain, keeps a
nervous horse in state Of misery. On
the other hand, it is perfectly true, as
besotted but intelligent stable keeper
once observed to me, "a kind word for
boss is as good sometimes as a feed
Of oats"
A single blow may be enough to spoil
a racer. Daniel Lambert founder of
the Lambert branch Of the Morgan
family. was thought as a three-year-old
to be the fastest trotting stallion Of his
day. He was very handsome. stylish.
Intelligent horse. and also extremely
sensitive.
His driver, Dan Mace, though one Of
the best reinsmen in America, once
made the mistake, through i'll temper
or bad Judgment Of giving Daniel
Lambert a severe cut with the whip,
and that single blow put an end to his
ssefulness az a trotter. He became
wild and ungovernable In harness and
s0maiDed % for the rest Of his life.

A Dinner Deferred.


An annusing story is told Of Lady
Barker's first dinner party at simla.

Barker had herself expended much

Of interest occurred outside, and every
servant left the room. quite forgetting

window was big tree on which sat
several monkeys which had watched
the preparations for dinner with much
interest. A half hour later the hostess
appeared, ready to receive her guests.
Just to be sure that everything was
right she gave q glance into the dining
room. There she beheh busy COM

The beaters drove him out and then
fed in panic. Ullmann. describing
what followed, says:
II fired and struck the brute in the
lower jaw. without disabling him.
Maddened by the pain. he came bound
ing toward me and before ! had time
to fire my second shot felled me with a
terrific blow from his paw.
Then he began to tear the fesh of
my back. I tried to protect myself
with my left arm. but the lion seized it
and bit through both flesh and mus
cles. Desperation gave me courage to
continue the struggle. and I drove my
right fist into the lions eyes.
This stopped him for moment. but
he quickly returned to the attack and
bit me on the head. shoulders. arms

Chief Hill of the Philadelphia
fire department lays down these
rules to prevent fires:
Do not put ashes in wooden boxes
or barrels. These wooden recepta-
cles are frequent cause of fire. In
every kitchen and cellar there
should be an ash box of iron or tin.
Keep the cellar clear of heaps of
refuse--of old newspapers, rags and
broken wood.
Cobwebs on cellar beams and
walls should be carefully guarded
against, and every cellar should re-
ceive, at least once Q year, a com
plete coat Of whitswash or of fire.
proof paint.
Line all flues with terra Gotta.

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
The Pantry as an Adjunct to the
Kitchen.


Kitchen.
In planning home too much
care cannot be given to the pantry,
says writer in the Minneapolis
Housekeeper, as here it is many un-
necessary steps may be taken, many
false movements made, if the place
is not convenient in every detail.
In most homes it is here the bak-
ing is prepared, for unless it is pos
sible to prepare many dishes on a
broad shelf in the pantry it means
that all the ingredients used must
be carried from the pantry out into
the kitchen to the table and back
again into the pantry when the
cooking is done.
In most convenient pantry
there is broad shelf, sufficiently
large to hold wide bake board.
This shelf is at right angles with
the shelves on which the supplies
are placed, and it is possible to stand
in one place while preparing bak-
ing and, at the most, take but step
or two to the farthest end of the
shelves.
In front of this shelf is a large
window which gives perfect light
with which to work without strain
ing the eyes.
All up and down the sides of this
window small brass hooks are fas-
tened into the woodwork, and on
each side of these hooks is placed
one utensil used in cookery. When
one is at work it is possible to lift
any one article without disturbing
the rest, and, as each article is al
ways kept on its own screw, it be-
comes almost a mechanical move
ment to reach for any article that
is needed.

 Elloitt is driver and he is employed by smedley. Canary also does odd jobs for the same firm and also for Peck & Bishop. Elliott's version of the affair as related to Sergeant Cook is as follows. Canary met him Saturday night and invited him to his house. When he arrived there he says that Canary made a business offer to him for dollar in which Canary's wife was interested. Elliott refused the offer and says that this was the cause of the trouble. Elliott was locked up on the charge of trespass. and the city court will thrash the matter out this
 morning.
