With the Empress Dowaser.

Miss Katharine A. Carl enjoys the
unique distinction of being the first
person from the western world in all
history who has been received into
the intimacy of the Chinese imperial
palaces. Miss Carl painted four por-
traits of the famous Empress Dowa
ger of China, and for nearly year
resided at court, attended all fetes,
and saw the Empress Dowager, on
terms OF pleasant and intimate COM
panionship, almost daily. She has
written the story of her experiences,
the first chapters of which will be
Published in the October Century
together with Miss Carts portrait Of
the Empress Dowager, of which the
is now in the National Mu-
scum at Washington. Portrait
sketches of the young Empress, the
secondary wife of the Emperor, and
other ladies, with drawings made by
Miss Carl illustrating scenes at
court, will accompany the article.

If one has low, marshy meadow
bordering on stream he cannot
find a way to make it more profita-
BILE than by turning flock of good
geese loose to Craze on 1T, says M. f.
Delano In American Agriculture.
The Toulouse is most popular, with
the Embden a close second. The
former is gray, laced with white on
back and breast, solid, gray heads
and necks and white underneath.
1t is a big, low, firm set goose and
an Invaluable variety. Ny choice is
the Embden. Its pure white plum
age, orange bill and legs and clear,
bright blue eyes make a very at
tractive combination of colors.
The African is good goose and, it
Is claimed, VIII lay more eggs team
does the Toulouse or Embden. The
Ctlna varieties, white and brown,
are somNwhat smaller, bat OF good
size for market, and extremely pro-
ductive. They are profitable geese
to keep.

Prosecuting an examination OF fin
ger tips which he has carried on for
20 years and in the course of which
he has satisfied himself that no two
tips are alike, Francis r. Fast,
corporation lawyer of New York,
advertised recently for finger prints
an inch long which were alike and
made by members of the same fam
lily.
Recently an imprint of a finger tip
in place of seal, TO establish indu-
bltably the maker of a will, was tax
en- as evidence by Mr.. Fast in an inn
portant will contest. He Will pre-
sent a bill In the next session of con-
gress and the state legislature to
legalIze finger imprints and give
them the weight a seal now possesses.
Discussing his plan to give legal
status to finger tips, Mr.. Fast said
the seal, which formerly was an in
dubitabie attestation of document,
was fast falling into disuse.
II suggest" he said, "that as
guarantee OF genuineness every per-
son choose one of<his 10 fingers
which shall call my ego fingers
and place an impression of It's tip
after his signature. especially on
documents requiring seal by law.
In that case the impression should
be made after the seal, and in addi-
ton to it.
mot alone are the lines of each Of
every persons 10 fingers different,
but the 10000 finger tips of 1000 per-
sons all vary. Thus, the impression
of mans finger tip would be incon-
vertible evidence that he was pres
Fent when a document was signed.
"Just as every person usually
adopts a. uniform signature to sign
checks, so also should he adopt one
certain finger for an imprint after
his signature, and he should leave &
duplicate of the impression with the
bank for its guidance.
"In drawing wills or other equally
Important papers, ask nay clients
to leave in their safe or in the care
of a confidential person, duplicate
impressions OF their 10 fingers and q
declaration as to which finger was
used for the invariable imprint after
their signatures" y't-.---

The excellence Of the English Co
lonial educational systems is evil
denced by the following interesting
description OF the horse by Bonn
bay student:
1.-THE horse is a very noble quadru-
ped, but when he is angry he will
not do so. He Is ridden on the spin
al cord by the bride and sadly the
driver places his foots on the stir
rup. and divides his lower limbs
across the saddle. and drives hi an
imal TO the meadow. He has a long
mouth, aud his head is attached to
the trunk by a long protuberahce
called the neck. He has four legs !;
two are In the front side and two are
afterwards. These are the weapons
on which he runs, and also defends
himself by extending those In the
rear In parallel direction toward
his foe, bat this he does only when
In vexatious mood. His flooding
is generally grasses and grains. He
Is also useful to take on his back a
man or woman as well as some car
go. He has power TO run as fast rs
he could He has got no sleep at
night time. aud always standing
awaken. Also there are horses Of
short sizes. They do the same as
the others are generally doing,
There is no animal like the horse !;
no sooner they see'their guardian or
master they always crying for food
ing, but 1t Is always at the morning
time. They have got tail, but not so
long as the COW and other such like
similar animals

They Went to jail.

A newspaper in Ohio recently
brought suit against forty. five men
who would not pay their subscrip-
tion and obtained judgment in each
case for the amount of each claim.
OF these, twenty-eight made Aida

Once during second term Cleve-

Fruit Trees Not ornamentals.

All trees are divided naturally
into two groups, the useful and the
ornamental The useful trees are
those that bear fruit. These must
be severely trimmed and pruned to
keep down the volume of wood so
that fruit production may be encour-
aged. 1t is useless to attempt to use
y fruit, tree as an ornamental. with
rare exceptions. The amount Of
pruning required disfigures 1t, and
IL such pruning is neglected, a small
crop of fruit will be the result.
Therefore the practice sometimes
followed Of planting fruit trees on
lawns should not be encouraged.

Ground Lime Rock.

The use of ground lime rock on
lands inclined TO be acidy Is highly
to be recommended. There should
be more mills for the grinding OF
this rock than now exist. Every
county that Is largely underlaid
with lime rock should have at least
one place within it where ground
lime rock can be obtained. This
would greatly simplify the matter of
getting the ground rock TO market,
as the farmers would in many in
stances do the hauling themselves.
