AlatrimOny and TOnRues.

A young woman who had graduated
from college and then taken mas
ter's degree returned home after two
years of travel abroad. to find that
during her absence her native village
had fitted her out with an embarras-
sing reputation for learning.
To her mingled annoyance and
amusement, she discovered that peo-
pie were surprised to see that she was
much like other ordinary and agree
able persons, and that perhaps after
all this educating process she was cap
able of sustaining the relations of or
binary life.
Among those who called to see her
soon after her return were two second
cousins, girls in their early teens. Their

NO COLOR IN BRAINS.
Black Baptist Humor Makes IA Hit at
London Congress.


A black man stood on the platform
of Exeter Hall the other day and
about 1900 people sat in front of him,
laughing. says the London Daily FIX
press.
They laughed not at the black man,
but at his jokes. for the black man
was one of the American negro dele
gates to the Baptist world conference,
and the "black Baptists" have provid
cd the lions share of the laughter in
Exeter Hall.
Their laughter could be picked out
when the Baptsts OF dozens of coun-
tries all laughed together for although
they have learned to talk like white
men, the "blnck Baptsts' have not
forgotten the peculiar laugh Of the
plantation.
Some OF the colored men are old
enough to have been slaves in their
childhood. Among these Is the Rev.
A. II. Parrish. who for twenty years
has been leading educatiOnalist
among the negroes of the Southern
States.
Parrish IL one of the blacklist of
black men, and his white tie and col
lar only emphasized the blackness of
his countenance and of his extra long
frock coat His gOld-spectacled black
face was as grave as DR.. Cliffords ns
from San Francisco to Japan. Then n
lovely smile overspread his features
81 suppose" he said. in the purest
English. that | am here to add color
to this occasion" His black face
beamed with delight as the Baptists
cheered and laughed.
Well he added. while the eth
noogists are trying to determine my
origin. and the thcologans my destiny.
| have the ineStimable satisfaction OF
knowing | am here"
The Baptists of all nations laughed
| again and checred rs the black man
smiled upon them from the place OF
honor on the platform. They seemed
as glad as he was to recognize the
| "arrival' OF the black man as an in
tellectual equal and brother.
Forty years ago he was a slave.
| When he was freed he entered mis-
sion school. in which he became a
| teacher Of Greek
With twinkling eyes the ex-slave
preacher suggested that there was mo

ford. who is regarded as the greatest
man of the 1000. the conference was a
triumph for America.

Reform in Milking.

Drovements In the care OF cows and

health laws of the several cities have
forced the shiftleSs man to wake up
or else get out of business. There are
still many opportunities for improve
ment, particularly along the line of
cleanliness of the cows and Of the sta
bles and milking along more scientific
lines. II the dairyman was half as
clean as the milkman there would be
little to complain OF. The milkman
must, of course, keep his milk on ice,
but use an abundance of scalding
water in the washing of bottles and
utensils of tin. and further purify
them in the sun. | go further and
wash the little crates of wood in which
bottles of milk are carried using hot

these. too, a sun bath. See that ice
boxes are scrubbed with hot water
daily. that the milkhousc floor is also
scrubbed, and then thoroughly dried.
