oIeo Still Sold as Butter.

In spite of the national color law,
oleomargarine is still being sold as
butter in some parts Of the country,
notably in some Missouri cities and
towns. A dealer was recently fined
and sentenced to sixty days in Jail in
st. Louis. He belonged to a gang that
had established regular routes for the
sale of the product as butter. The
practice was to deliver from wagon
and to sell under the name of cream
cry butter. The price was always Just
under the price for first-class butter.
to give the impression that it could
not be sold lower at a profit. The
butterine was put up in the packages
usual with butterine and the govern
ment tag put on. But just before de-
livery the dealer pulled off the tag and
left it in the wagon. An inspector
overhauled one wagon and found hun
dreds of these tags that had been
taken off the bogus product.

A Princess of HaWaii.

THAT the former royal family of
Hawaii had supernatural powers is
still firmly believed by very large
number of the natives of those ISL
ands," says Chief Examiner Serven of
the Civil Service commission. When
Commissioner Rodenberg and myself
visited the city of Hilo, while we were
on the islands recently, we were told
the story of the rescue of that city
from destruction by a volcano by
Princess Emma of the Hawaiian roy
atty. The story was told us by the
Judge Of the city and vouched for by
half a dozen Americans who claimed
to know personally.
THE volcano which was doing the
damage is some 80 miles from the city.
1t began active operations, and the
stream of lava which flowed from it
started straight for the city of Hilo,
covering an area about half mile
wide. rhe flow of lava was slow, as
it gained only small distance each
day. 1t presented a solid wall of red
hot stone six or eight feet high, and
remains to corroborate the story.
"As the lava approached the city the
natives became much alarmed and
were on the verge of panic, when a
message came from Princess Emma.

a fit of arrangement. The same is true
OF Rousseau, Cervantes, Southey and
Swift.
Alexander Pope was hunchback,
with very caustic tongue, which once
resulted in his being as good as told
that he was "a crooked little thing that
asks impudent questions"
Throughout his life Sir Walter Scott
could only walk with limp. AS boy
he was afflicted with paralysis, which
left him permanently lame.
The late James Payn, the novelist,
was extremely deaf, in which respect
he resembled Edison, the world re-
nowned electrician and inventor.
Milton was totally blind when he
produced the masterpiece of his mar
velous genius. From his youth up he
suffered extremely from gout, which
was the primary cause of the loss Of
his eyesight
AS anybody could gather from his
works, Thomas Carlyle was a chronic
dyspeptic. A state Of irritation appears
to have been his normal condition, and
although in the absence of this Pc
culiar ailment he might have been a
far more amiable being, his writings
would certainly have lost some of their
most prominent characteristics.

Confucian maxIms.

The "Analects" of Confucius were
written by his disciples to chronicle
the utterances Of their Most Holy
Ancient Teacher" Confucius lived
from SOL to ATS B. c., and was therefore
contemporary with Daniel and Ezra.
OF the many sayings recorded from his
lips, none is more widely known than
the Golden Rule he impressed upon his
followers. One Of them asked him,
Is there single word which may
serve as a rule for the whole Of ones
life?" rs not shu reciprocity such
a word?" replied the wise man. do

are these: Without virtue, both riches

men, | heard words and gave credit

loves all men. He is not governed by

THE eARRoTE IN MANILA.

High sheriff May be Compelled to Use
IL at An Execution.
High Sheriff Peterson is wondering
how it feels to garrote a man, says
the Manila New American. The sub
ject was suggested to him by the dis
covery that there was murder case
on the docket Of Judge Collins court
and that the mode of punishment pre-
scribed by the Spanish code, under
which the courts are now operated, is
death in the chair.
The murderer is Lorenzo Antiparde,
charged with killing native police
man last September in Tondo. If con-
victed and condemned to death, so the
learned say, there is but one way to
carry out the sentence: Section 101 of
the code reads: THE penalty of death
shall be executed by garrote upon a
scaffold."
The subject seemed to prey upon the
sheriff's mind all day yesterday. He
wore a preoccupled look and at times
was seen to give his hands sharp,
twisting motion, followed by a look
of shock and disgust as in the imag-
ination he heard the neck crack or
listened to the strangled victims dy-
ing struggle for breath.
Opinions differed as to the form of
the machine by which the death PEN
atty was executed in years gone by.
Originally it consisted of a chair with
an upright post for back. To this
was attached an iron collar, which
fitted around the criminals neck.
Through the post passed a screw, the
point of which pressed upon the back
OF the neck of the man in the chair.
One turn of the crossbar handle of
this screw forced the point through
the cervical vertebrae of the con-
demned and killed him instantly.
This was the machine used in Cuba.
Spanish lawyers say that in the Phil
ippines the apparatus differed in that
the pointed screw and collar were abb
sent. The back post had broad
board behind the head, through tmo
holes in which passed ropes. The
ends Of the ropes we're fastened to a
short board narrow enough to pass
under the chin and cover the throat.
The other ends of the rope wound
round a drum, and when this was
turned the throat piece was drawn
back till the victims wind was shut
off and strangulation followed. If
properly worked the shock killed in
stantly or rendered the man uncon-
scious, but if the exeeutioner faltered
slow death by suffocation ensued and
the struggles of the unfortunate were
terrible to witness and listen to.

ger of the destruction of the city by

Dairy School Attendance.

Reports from Wisconsin say that
the dairy school this year is crowded,
there being 1876 students present.
This number is twenty-five more than
the school has facilities for instruct
Ing with ease. When the present
school was built it was felt that the
capacity would be great enough for a
long time to come. The attendance
shows the interest Wisconsin farmers
are taking in scientific matters relat
ing to dairying. Among the students
this year are some Swiss buttermak-
srs from part Of Wisconsin where
cheese of foreign name are being
made. From other parts of the coun-
try come reports of good attendance
n the dairy schools. This is an en-
couraging feature of educational ad-
vance. Probably no phase OF farm
life more needs the help Of science
than the dairy, as it is the part OF
farm work that touches manufacture.
Every state Of the Union should
have dairy school, for in every state
Of the Union dairy products are be-
coming important parts Of the farm
output. Dairy conventions stimulate
interest, but seldom get down to the
foundations of matters in their papers
and discussions, and, if they do, the
people that hear them do not under;
stand what is said. But in the case OF
dairy schools the students begin at
the foundation and acquaint them
selves with the obscure things that
need to be brought out to the light.
Many of our farmers could well af-
ford to send their sons to take a
course in the dairy schools of their
respective states. If the capacities
are not now great enough they could
soon be made so.

exerted an appreciable influence upon
the manufacture of pig iron in this

Steriized Water for Washing Dairy

Dishes.
Dairy utensils should be washed in
water that is sterile as to last ap-
plication. OF course, we do not recon-
mend that hot water be used before the
dishes have had the milk rinsed out
of them. But water that is sterile
has been found absolutely necessary
in the washing of churns and milk
holding utensils, where diseases have
become prevalent or forms of bacte-
rial life that cause taints and stringi-
ness in milk. Recently in maya
zine appeared an article relative to
the sterilization of water by the appli
cation of copper sulphate at the rate
of one part of copper sulphate to one
million parts of water. This, it is
said, will kill germs in water AS
copper sulphate is a deadly poison,
we do not advise our readers to use
it as described. The use of the pro
portion given would not endanger life,
but novices cannot be depended on
to confine themselves to prescribed
rules. The chemists viii doubtless
provide us with full information in
due time. Meanwhile, the boiling OF
water is the surest way of getting
water that is germ proof, and that is
so simple a process that we have no
hesitancy in recommending it. Dishes
thoroughly heated by means of boil
ing water will not carry Tactic acid
ferments from milking to milking and
thus hasten souring of the milk.
