Spelling In the Year 14OS.

BY the following, which is an exact
copy of the first paragraph in the will
of Henry ". Of England, written in
January, 140S, it will be seen that even
kings are not always good spoilers:

Artists as Frame Makers.

The frame for the picture is always
a sore question with the average artist,
as any one of them will confess and
any frame maker testify to. Most
painters have definite ideas on how
their canvases should be framed, but
when it comes to ordering and paying
for them, that is another matter. AS
great an artist as Alma-Tadema al
ways designed his own frames, and
not few New YORK; painters design
and make their own. There is one
Boston artist who began by making his
own frames after his own designs, and
his effects were SO artistic that several
of his colleagues in that city begged
him to make frames for them. He
consented to do this in a few cases,
until the fame of his work spread
abroad, and as a result he received so
many orders that he set up a frame
making shop of his own.

POINTS ON CHURNlNG.
Low Cream Temperature Necessary
to Obtain Best Results.


to Obtain Best Results.
Always strain the cream into the
churn through a dipper with a per-
fOrated tin bottom. In winter add lust
sufficient butter color of a reliable
brand to give d nice yellow tint. Do
not depend on pouring it ill., but count
the drops for a small churning, allow
ing three or four drops to the pound OF
butter
No definite temperature for chusning
can be given, but the necessity for the
constant use of a thermometer must be
emphasized.
Many conditions influence the tenn
perature Of the cream for churning,
such as the richness of the cream, the
quantity in the churn, the feed and
breed of the cow, the length of time the
cows have been milking, the temDera-
ture of the room and the speed of the
churn. Aim to make conditions favor
able to a low churning temperature, as
it insures a better butter and a more
exhaustive churning.
Start with the churn about one-third
full, which means not more than five
gallons in No. churn, and regulate
the churning temperature so as to have
butter within from twenty to thirty
minutes. That proper temperature can
only be ascertained by past experience
with similar cream.
| would suggest a range of tempera-
lures for summer from "a to So degrees
and in winter from So to GA degrees.
Cream that contains too much skim
med milk and is too cold will foam
Never add hot water to the cream. It
must be taken from the churn and
heated by placing the can in a pan Of
hot water and stirring until the desired
temperature is reached
Poor cream often breaks, but will
not gather. Try churning slowly If
this does not overcome the difficulty
the only remedy is to draw off part of
the buttermilk to lessen the LIQUID.
Very rich cream is likely to paste or
thicken in the churn so that concus-
sion ceases. Add enough water at the
same temperature as the cream to di-
lutte it SO that it will drop.
When the churning is about complet-
ed add couple of quarts of water sew
eral degrees lower in temperature than
the cream was. In the summer it may
be quite cold. This floats the butter
and allows the buttermilk to run off
more freely. When the butter is the
size of wheat grains it is sufficiently
gathered. Look frequently at the in
side of the churn lid, and when but few
small specks are seen on it the churn-
ing is usually finished. Watch the but
ter1nilk as it runs through the strainer
dipper, and if any butter comes with
the first streams little more churning
is necessary.-Sara Rose, Canadian
Dairy Instructor

The Stone of Destiny.

The historic stone known in Scotland
as the "Stone of Destiny" in Ireland
as the Lila FaiF' and in England as
Jacobs Pillar or the "Scone" is said
to have been brought from Egypt to
Ireland by a beautiful princess, who
placed it in Tara's hall in $50 B. G. At
present this very ancient relic is fas-
tened underneath the coronation chair
in Westminster abbey. The stone is of
dark color, streaked with red, and is
twenty-six inches long, sixteen inches
wide and eleven inches thick It's sur
face is much defaced, and a deep crack
almost divides it into two parts. Ira
dition says that this stone can be trac-
ed back to the plains of Luz, where
Jacob laid his head upon it and dream
ed his ladder dream, and that at the
captivity Jeremiah carried it to Egypt

Eight Millions For Toys.

The real amount of cash money paid
out in the United States alone for toys
that on Christmas morning gladden. the
hearts of American children is con-
servatively estimated at $S,O00,OOO.
This means about 60 cents apiece for
the something like 100000 of five to
twelve year old children. The children
of no other country on the globe have
anything like so lavish an average
amount of money expended for toys
for them, not even the children of Ger

SlLAGE AND THE SILO

The cost of filling silos was estimated
by the Illinois station from records OBJ
tanned from nineteen farms in the vari
Gus parts of the state, and the figures
showed a range Of 40 to 76 cents per
ton, the average being So cents.
Si1O of the Ancients.
The ancients knew of the silo. They
used huge underground cisterns for
preserving in it's fresh and succulent
state the forage for their animals
Americans use the above ground silo
because it is more cheaply constructed
and convenient of access. A 200 ton
silo, eighteen feet in diameter and thir-
ty-six feet high, will contain enough
succulent feed for forty-five head Of
cattle for 200 days-from Oct. 10 to
May 1. By means of the silo farmer
can have the equivalent Of green grass
for his stock the entire year.
Pasturage All the Year.
During the winter farmers expect to
have to feed grain to their stock to off
set the absence of succulent green pas
turage. The silo will permit having
such pasturage throughout the year.
Keep Silage From Freezing.
In the average silo which freezes
seriously it will be found in severe
weather that the top of the silage is
covered with white frost, says Ameri-
can Cultiyator. If one and half or
two inches of this top is taken off and
put in the silage cart, as is the practice
it will be found that the temperature
is close to if not below % degrees.
Put a few frozen Jumps of silage a
foot Or so in diameter in this mass and
at the end, not of two hours, but of
twenty-four hours, they will still be
frozen Jumps. In nine cases out of
ten in silos that freeze badly the 81
lage is fed at a temperature of 30
to 80 degrees. All careful stockmen
warm the drinking water for their
COWS, but it is a much more serious
matter to feed COW forty pounds of
silage at 81 degrees than to give her
twenty to thirty pounds of ice water.
Shut the door and stop freezing. In
nearly all silos the doors at the top that
are taken out when the feeding begins
are never put back until the silo is
again filled. The top doors are open in
zero weather All the warm air is
escaping. The silo is afforded every
opportunity to cool off, This method
of handling the building invites freez-
ing
SilRge Machinery.
One outfit of machinery for filling
silo may be owned in partnership by
six or eight neighboring farmers at a
trifing cost to each and with proper
care will last many years. They can
hire thrashing engine for the motive
power. A 200 ton silo complete can be
built for $780, What would 200 tons

4 Love Test.

This tale is told i'll the orient: A lady
one day found a man following her,
and she asked him why he did so. His
reply was, ''You are very beautiful,
and L am in love with YOU" ooh, you
think me beautiful, do you? There is
my sister over there. You will find her
much more beautiful than 1 am. Go
and make love to her." On hearing
this, the man went to see the sister, but
found she was very ugly, SO he came
back in an angry mood and asked the
lady why she had told him falsehood.
She then answered, ''Why did you tell
me a falsehood?" The man was sur
prised at this accusation and asked
when he had done SO. Her answer
was: "You said you loved me. If that
had been true you would not have gone
to make love to another woman"

Trout.

A trout is a trout from the day it Is
born, but not until it gets into the
ocean is d salmon a salmon. While it
lives in a river it is a parr. On the
western coast August and September
are the months for the principal run
of salmon. Early fall is the season for
eastern trout, followed by the German
brown and Loeb Leven in the late fall.
Winter and early spring are the sea-

February comes the eastern brook

in the corner lay a child, small and

er Some strange mystery haunted
the room. What were these poverty
stricken people trying to conceal? The
clergyman shook off the feeling and
opened his prayer book at the bap-
tismal service.
Having performed his mission, ac-
companied by the two men, he was
passing clump of trees on his way
home when one Of them stopped sud-
denly and, pulling long bladed knife
from his pocket, flashed it before the
young rectOr's face and instantly point

in a frame ON his wall. 'And if there's
any persuasion in John Hares poor

This young rector had come to
SpOttSfield, a rising manufacturing
city, three years before, after serving
as curate in large city parish. He
had transformed his new congregation
from a disgruntled, Quarreling COM
munity composed of q few rich and
many poor to q great family interested
in each other and respecting his Christ
like principles And incidentally his
strict resolution for a busy bachelor
hood had been somewhat disturbed by
a pair of interested, laughing eyes
which belonged to the daughter of
factory owner.
This energetic, but rather shy, young
woman was famed and loved among
the poor and sick of Spottsfield for her
gentle and unpretentious way of help
ing when and where she was needed
Though of different faiths, she and
John Hare met often while Oh eXclr

at her fathers home, where he was
popular as a dinner guest because Of
his appreciation of a good cigar and
his broad, forceful views on Christian

to avoid him when he crossed her path
and was even chary of her converse
ton when he dined at her house.

constantly brought to his mind in the
homes he visited. A forlorn old wom-

President Of Isle Of Pines societ.
Makes Statement Of Conditions.

Pittsburg, Nov 6.-Thoanas J. Keen
an Of this city, president Of the Amer
ican society of the Isle OF Pines, usu-
ally spends his winters at his home
ON that island. In speaking of the re-
volt yesterday he said: As have had
NO recent advices from the Isle OF
Pines, 1 do not care to pass any opin-
ion on the action said to have been
taken.
"If the story is correct have no
doubt whatever that the people have
been goaded to this courss through the
action of the Cuban government There
is absolutely no question that the Isle
OF Pines is American territory largely
peopled by Americans ard the devel-
opments that have been made have
been simply through our capital and
enterprise.
my understanding OF the agreement
entered into between this country and
Cuba was that the latter should ex-.
ercise suzerainty over the island, but
instead Of this the Cubans have been
imposing all kinds of taxes on the peo-
pie there and never expended dollar
on improvements"
