ADVANTAGES OF AcETYLENE.

Famous Summer Hotel, the Grand Union
of Saratoga, Has Installed This Best
of All Artificial Lights-Means In
creased Comfort and Health.
Saratoga, June 21.-The very name,
Saratoga" brings to every mind
health-giving springs. unsurpassed no.
tells and beautiful drives. 1t has been
for many years the Mecca for all who
admire nature, enjoy good living, and
are searching for health, or are simply
taking vacation.
The Grand Union, the largest sum-
mer hotel In the United States, set
enclosing court with fountains and
flowers, grass and trees. music and
light, is throughout the season thronged
with guests. With the progressive
spirit always shown by its manage
ment, the Grand Union has again add
ed to its attractiveness by introduce
ing acetylene gas to make still more
brilliant the evening hours. The genial
proprietors believe in furnishing their
guests with the best of erything,
and now, after investigating and find
ing that Artificial Sunlight can be had,
they have installed complete acety-
lene gas plant to produce it, and have
connected upwards of six thousand
Acetylene burners in and about the
plant.
Like many discoveries of recent
years, which are coming into popular
favor, acetylene, one OF the most re-
cent, is very simply produced. 1t is
adapted for use wherever artificial
light is needed and the necessary ap-
paratus can be understood and oper-
ated by any one.
The generator in which Acetylene
is produced by the automatic contact
of carbide and water might be termed
gas plant. as it performs all of the
functions of city gas plant. The
acetylene generator can be purchased
for few dollars and in any size, from
one adapted to furnish acetylene to
ten or a dozen burners for cottage,
up to the large but still simple ma
chine such as is now furnishing Acct
ylene for six thousand burners in the
Grand Union.
Outside Of large cities the use Of
Acetylene is quite common. The own
er of the country homo now demands
running water. gas and other convent
ences which few years ago were con-
sidered as luxuries, and acetylene gas
has met his requirements. and gives
him better and cheaper light than is
ordinarily furnished in cities.
1t is well known that rooms lighted
with Acetylene are more comfortable.
because cooler, and more healthful be-
cause the air is not vitiated.

Eyer fried cofree rhi. wav ?

It is well-known fact that even the
best OF housekeepers cannot make really
good coffee without having the proper ma
terials.
They will NEVER make it with coffee of
doubtful origin, adulterated, .queerly
blended, and possibly dirty coffee that has,
perhaps, been mixed up with all kinds OF
other things on the counter.
But let them take package OF LION
CoFFEE-the purest and cleanest-and the
ted States for over twenty-five years. Mill
ions drink it daily, and get the best re-
suits if it is made in the following ways
Try it once and you will never want to
try any other brand of coffee.
HOW TO MAKE GOOD COFFEE.
Use LION COFFEE, because to get best
results you must use the best coffee.
Grind you LION COFFEE rather fine.
Use a tablespoonful to each cup, and one
extra for the pot" First mix it with a
little cold water, enough to make thick
paste, and add white of an egg (if egg is to
be used as a settler), then follow one OF
the following rules: :.
lst i With boiling water = Add boiling
water, and let it boil three minutes only.
Add a little cold water and set aside five
minutes to settle. Serve promptly.
2d-With cold water-Add your cold
water to the paste and bring 1t to boil;
Then set aside, add a little cold water, and
in Ave minutes It's ready to serve.
THREE DoN'Ts.
Don't boil it too long.
Don't let it stand more than ten min
utes before serving.
Don't use water that has been boiled be-
fore.
TWO WAYS TO SETTLE COFFEE.
lst-With eggs-Use part of the white OF
an egg, mixing it with the ground LION
COFFEE before boiling.
2d-With cold water instead of eggs.
After boiling add dash of cold water and
set aside for eight or ten minutes, then
serve through strainer.

Milk Adulteratinn.

While the ordinary methods of milk
adulterations are easily detected by
expert examiners, it is reported that
French chemist, DIR. Quesneville, has
made some experiments that point to
the probability that for some time
there has been practiced form of
deception in milk adulteration which
has escaped the attention of health
officers. In paragraph in the Bir-
mingham Daily Mail it is explained
that the deficiency of fats, whether
due to the poverty of the milk or the
extraction of fats, has been covered
by the addition of foreign greasy mat
ter. DIR. Quesneville found that ben
zine would dissolve foreign fats with
out affecting the natural fats in milk"
and thus by examining samples which
have passed the ordinary test he dis
covered such substances as pork drip
ping and cocoanut butter.

A well established fact in connec-

better use Of its food than does a

has been demonstrated time and again.

Exercise flr Sheen.


Sheep will stand considerable steady
cold, but shiver under wind and are
particularly susceptible to dampness.
The plan Of cooping sheep up in clo~e,
warm quarters with little or no ven
tilation is not a good one. See that
their quarters are comfortable by all
means, have them dry and fairly
warm, but have them well ventilated
without drafts. Then provide a shed,
have it attached to the pens If pos
Sible, open on one end except for what
fencing is necessary to keep them in,
and let them run under this cover
daily. If they are not inclined to take
the exercise make them do it, and see
that they are provided with some clean
roughage to MUNICH while in the shed.
Be careful and not give them so much
that they will spend their time eating
instead Of moving about. Water
should be supplied abundantly.

The smaller the air bubble in the
large end the fresher the egg.
A fat hen is a poor layer, and her
eggs will usually prove ihfertile.
Excessive fat in the male or female
is antagonistic to procreation and fec
undity.
A fresh egg has a somewhat rough
shell, while a stale egg is smooth of
shell.
In feeding grain to young fowls it
is important to give as good a variety
as possible. \
The shells Of eggs are porous, and
pungent filth may penetrate and spoil
the flavor.
Roosts should always be on the same
level, as the birds will crowd to the
highest one.
There is no halfway house in keep
ing fancy poultry" and one must
have the best or none.
To have good layers, breed from
good laying stock and cultivate this
quality as fully as possible.
Eggs Immersed in water a day or
two before the chickens are due will
bo greater benefited.
There Is not much risk in raising
poultry; 1t is not subject to extremes,
and there is little danger of overpro-
duction.
