WHEN A MAN r
Kew 1t Feels to Go without Food
For Seven Days.

How 1t Feels to Go without Food
For Seven Days.
For the first two days through which
Z strong and healthy man is doomed to
exist upon nothing his sufferings are
perhaps more acute than in the remain
ing stages; he feels an inordinate, un-
speakable craving at the stomach night
and day. The mind runs upon beef,
bread and other substances, but still in
q great measure the body retains its
strength. On the third and fourth days,
but especially on the fourth, this inces-
SAINT craving gives place to a sinking
and weakness Of the stomach, coon
panied by nausea
On the fifth day his cheeks appear
hollow and sunken, his body attenu-
ated; his color is ashy pale and his eyes
wild, CLASSY and cannibalistic.
The sixth day brings with it increas-
ed suffering, although the pangs Of
hunger are lost in an overpowering
languor and sickness. The head be-
comes dizzy; the ghosts Of we'll remem-
bered, dinners pass in hideous process
sion through the mind.
The seventh day comes, bringing in
creasing lassitude and further prostra-
ton Of strength. The mind wanders.-

SEEING NOISE.
The Method by which Sound ave
Are Photographed.

The Method by Which Sound Waves
Are Photographed.
Sound can be photographed by TAX
ing advantage of the motion produced
In a tuning fork. Sound travels in
waves, each corresponding with an os-
Citation in the fork, which remains in
q state Of continuous vibration while
the note is sounded.
To photograph these sound waves q
small mirror is attached to the end Of
one Of the prongs. On this a powerful
beam Of light is projected by a lens, SO
as to strike it at an angle of forty-fve
degrees. The light is again reflected
from its surface. but in a new direc-
ton, and a very slight alteration in the
position Of the mirror makes a large
one in the reflected beam.
To take the photograph the light is
turned upon the mirror in a darkened
room, and the tuning fork is set in VI
bration, while a sensitive plate is rap
idly passed in the path Of the reflected
pencil Of light. On development the
plate shows sound waves recorded as
a wavy line. and each note has its
characteristic curves.

There was a tragic little scene imme-
diately preceding the marriage of King
Edward VII. when he was the Prince
Of Wales. With several Of his royal
relatives he was staying at the Prus-
sian embassy in Rome, where his host
was the German ambassador, Baron
Won Kanitz.
The responsibility of entertaining so
many august personages under his
roof was too much for the ambassador.
He appeared at dinner n night in his
dressing gown and slippers and to
half the royalties Of Europe exclaimed:

On account of the demand for print
butter the manufacturers and dealers
In dairy supplies have designed a num-
Der of machines and appliances for eco

forms, says American Cultivator. a
similar arrangement for holding cheese

consin station. The first print cheese
was made during the winter Of 1S0S-99.

Removing the Buttermilk.
When churning small lots of cream
some persons squeeze out the butter
milk by the aid Of a wooden roller or
spoon, but this method requires an ex-
cessive manipulation, which Injuries the
texture Of the butter. 1t Is preferable
to remove the buttermilk by means of
water, and the washing should take
place while the butter is still In the
churn and as soon as the greater part
Of the buttermilk has been drawn off.
Butter that is to be eaten quickly need
not be 10 thoroughly washed as that
which is required to be kept for some
time, as a small quantity of buttermilk
left therein brings out the aroma more
quickly.
Cottonseed Butter.
Southern dairymen should remember
that they cannot make a first class
article Of butter by feeding cotton seed
alone. It spells the flavor. Cotton
seed meal. or well steamed cotton
seeds, fed In limited quantities in con-
nection with other feed will do no
harm.-FaTm Visitors.

The daily papers are filled

Russia. The better posted
readers recognize that as yet
there is no revelation. The
people Of Russia are powerless
as long as the army remains
loysi to the Czar-the people
may offer themselves as q sac
r16ce, and be shot down or
sabered by the well drilled
soldiers OF the emperor, but
ct present their hope of over
turning the government may
be placed with the impossible.
The uprising however, will
possibly awaken Russia to a
sense, Of her degradation as a
civilized people, and pave the
way to reforms that will give
the people of the country some
approach to popular government
and more wholesome economic
