Long Cooking.

OF fresh foods the elephants foot
needs cooking the longest time, as it
does not acquire its proper tenderness
and succulence till it has been baked
for about thirty-six hours. Next comes
tripe, which requires from ten to fif-
teen hours Of boiling before it becomes
thoroughly digestible. Next come
hams Of good size, which require from
six to seven hours. OF roast meats, a
haunch of venison takes longer than
any other joint-about three and half
hours. OF puddings, the Christmas
pudding comes easily first, as it is boil
ed over and over again. Sometimes it
is kept for months or years and under
goes several boilings. The average time
is from six to eight hours. The veg
etable which takes the longest time to
cook is the onion.-London Mail.

One of sheridan's Dodsc..

It is related Of Richard Brinsley Sher-
ldan, the dramatist and statesman,
that, always in debt, lie had among
his creditors the brothers Chalie, who
were the partners in Il wine firm in
1775. One day when he was giving
dinner party to some distinguished
people Sheridan sent for one of the
brothers, told him he was now able to
settle his account and invited him to
the dinner party, asking him to come
before the hour for some private con-
versation. Chalie arrived early, and
he was no sooner in the house than
Sheridan sent off a servant with note
to the clerk desiring him, as AIr. Chalie
was favoring him with his company,
to send as soon as possible three dozen
of burgundy, two dozen of claret and
two dozen Of port, with a dozen of old
hook. The unsuspecting clerk sent the
wine, with which the guests were so
pleased that they asked where it came
from. Sheridan, turning toward Chalie
said, II am indebted to my friend here
for all the wine you have tasted and
am always proud to recommend him."
It was not until the following morning
that Chalie realized the double mean
ing in Sheridan's words. The debt was

THE GUARDIAN OF OUR BODY.

The foremost biologist of our day,
M. Metschnikof, has shown the world
of science that there are leucocytes in our
blood that act as scavengers or policemen.
These policemen which are called bhago-
cytes look out for the noxious or poisonous
elements in our blood. Various offending
elements are picked out of the blood and
tissues by these policemen and destroyed.
Therefore our lives are protected by
these blood-cell- policemen, the phagocytes,
and we enjoy immunity from disease so
long as our blood contains plenty of phago-
cytes and red blood corpuscles.
IA new broom sweeps clean and IN
order to put our own house in order we
must get rid of all the poisons in the blood
with a new broom such as an Alternative
extract made from roots and herbs-with-
out the use of alcohol, as DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, specific for
making rich red blood-for eradicating the
poisons from the blood. In some way the
policemen in the blood are increased in
number and strength-so that we are put
in the best possible shape to resist disease
to cure neuralgia, colds, catarrh, and IN
cipient consumption.
"The more study and time is given to the
subject the more we find that the blood is
the center of life says DR.. K. v. Pierce,
the noted specialist of Buffalo, Hthe health
and comfort of the average person depends
entirely on this blood supply-for the heart
must have pure blood or it will not pump
and keep the body supplied regularly like
the beautiful automatic engine it is. The
nerves must be fed on pure blood-or we
suffer the pain of neuralgia, which is the
CIV of the starved nerves for food. Head
aches, cold in the head, catarrh-and many
other things are due to stagnation of the
blood"
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are mild
laxative, No other medicine EQUALS them
for geutleuess and thoroughuess.

The Lonely Library.

At the English universities the libra
ries are SO little used that they have
become famous as places Of unbroken
solitude. One yarn told to illustrate
this Is to the effect that an elderly fel-
low Of Caius college, Cambridge, got
tired Of life and determined to put him
self quietly and unostentatiously out Of
the way, so that the world in general
and Caius college in particular should
know him no more. Being man with
a great love for his university and a
greater love still for his college, he
made up his mind that no scandal
should be caused by his sudden depar-
ture, so he debated in his mind the
ways and means. His decision was an
inspiration. He bought decent length
of rope and hanged himself in the col
lege library. But his hopes were DOOM
ed to disappointment. He was discov-
cred q year and half later.

As regards the history Of coaches in
France, Henry Nv. was assassinated in
1910. Soon after his death some en-.
cravings were published representing
him being murdered in his carriage by
Ravaillac. 1t is from these that we
get fair idea Of the coaches.
They are simply square boxes, meas
uring by scale six feet in length by
three and half feet in width, on four
wheels Of the same diameter, without
any springs or straps and seating six
persons in all-namely, two with their
backs to the horses, two facing them
and two more, one on each side Of the
two "boots' at the side. Each vehicle
had roof, resting on light columns,
and curtains to draw or to let down.
This agrees well with the received
accounts of the incident, according to
one version of which Henry rode in
an open carriage, and according to an.
other that as soon as the fatal blow
was delivered by the assassin the
kings attendant who, rode with him
in the carriage drew tie curtains, and,
hiding the king from public view, as
sured the enraged people that he was
only wounded.-Notes and Queries.

The Charm of Victoria Falls.

How the Victoria falls impress WIS.,
itor is recorded in Miss G. w. Mackin-
tosh's journal of tour In South Africa.
Miss Macintosh says: "We perceived
no hint Of the falls, only seeing before
us a screen Of rocky based, bright green
forest, apparently closing in the river,
Hike lake. Ten minutes walk brought
us to the camp, on a cliff which liter
ally overhung the gorge, and we saw
the cataract laundering down into the
boiling pot at our feet. The walls OF
the chasm, 400 feet high, were spanned
by rainbow. The charm Of these falls
lies not in the one overwhelming crash
as at Niagara, but in the cumulative ef-
feet of various glimpses, the matchless
beauty of the surroundings and the
strangeness of the whole setting, but
chiefly in the columns Of spray, called
the "thundering smoke" and in the
ever changing rainbows. The mile wide
river suddenly drops into yawning
crack in the ground, stretching right
across the stream at right angles to
the banks, foaming trough, quite
narrow, of which the walls rose 400
feet above the surface Of the water"

Cuban Women.

The Cuban women-and the men as
welfare intensely affectionate. They
say much in words, often more than
their hearts feel. But they are very
warm hearted. Every letter that l get
from girl friends of six months ac-
quaintance is love letter, full of pas
sionate expressions Of endearment. The
Cuban women mature quickly, and q
girl Of fourteen in Cuba is as mature
as girl Of seventeen here. Early mar
riages are the rule. The Cuban women
are dainty, pretty and very like the
French women, with many Of the
french ways and ideals. They care
little for forming themselves into clubs
for literary culture, and woman suf-
frage doesn't agitate them. They are
vastly more interested in being clever
needlewomen, good musicians, good
housekeepers, charming sweethearts,
than in running the government.-Cor.

WORSE AT WARSAW
STRIKE CONDITIONS IN THAT
CITY SAID TO BE GROWING
MORE SERIOUS.

et. Petersburg, Jan. 31.-Whtle there
seems to have been a complete res.
toration of order In st. Petersburg
and Moscow conditions at Warsaw
continue to go from bad to worse.
Estimates of the killed and wound
ed in consequence of collisions
between mobs and soldiers place the
number at 100. The bakers being on
strike, bread is at famine prices in
Warsaw and attempts to break into
stores there have caused numerous
collisions with the military. The find
ing of revolvers Of uniform make on
many of the rioters arrested affords
confirmation of recent reports that
revolutionary agitators hive been
smuggling arms in anticipation of an
outbreak. 1t is asserted that the Off.
cial report of the dead through the re.
cent conflict between the strikers and
troops at Riga is far short of the act
uality, many having perished in an at
tempt to cross the river on the Ice
when the soldiers opened fire, the ice
breaking and the water engulfng the
fugitives.

RUSSIAN MOVE FAILS
ATTEMPT TO BREAK THROUGH
THE JAPANESE LEFT WING
is FRUSTRATED.

kuropatkin Defeated In His Effort to
Capture sandepas and His Proposed
Offensive Movement Is Abandoned.
No Official Estimate Of Losses Has
Been Given Out, but Thousands on
Both Sides Were Killed or Wounded.
st. Petersburg, Jan. 31.-General
Kuropatkin's attempt to break through
the Japanese left wing and outflank
Field Marshal Oyama's position on the
Shakhe river. seems to have failed en-
tirely. Few "details, however, are
available beyond the information con-
tanned in the official dispatches. Field
Marshal Oyama, as at the battle of
the Shakhe, river, appears to have an
swered the. Russian advance with
counter offensive movement, but no
great disposition was shown to carry
the war far into the territory held by
the Russians.
At the war office there is an inclina-
tion to lay the chief blame for the fail
ure OF the movement to a sudden
change of the weather to intense cold,
20 degrees below zero with a high
wind. which drifted the snow and rem
dered it hazardous to expose the
troops to camping in the open plain
and also impeded the transportation OF
guns, supplies and the wounded.
Too Hard a Nut to Crack.
The operation entrusted to the Sec
ond army under General Grippenberg
was the capture of Sandepas, which
once in Russian hands would serve as
a pivot for a fanking movement
against Field Marshal Oyama, but
Sandepas proved too hard nut to
crack and the Japanese, taking ad-
vantage of the repulse of the Russians.
hurried up their reinforcements and
assumed the offensive on the Hun
river as we'll as along the railway and
| the Great Mandarin road.
The Russians, however, appear to
have been completely successful on
the defensive, repulsing all the Japa-
nese attacks. Under the circum-
stances General Grippsnberg decided
not to undertake to storm Sandepas,
which is situated in fiat country,
therefore more difficult to take than q
position in a hilly country.
Owing to fiat trajectory and the
enormous penetration of modern pro-
jectiles the capture of the outer lines
of trenches on Thursday entailed
heavy casualties There Is no official
estimate of the losses, but 1t is expect
ed that some thousands on both sides
were killed or wounded.

Three Well Placed Ruble..

The method of introducing forbidden
documents into the cars country is
described by Carl Joubert, author Of
Russia as 1t Really Is." The purvey-
or Of undesirable literature, having ar
rived on the frontier, at point some
distance from the railway, approaches
the rittmaister and arranges matters
with him. The rittmaister sees him
and his cart load Of books safely across
the border and directs him to some
small town near the frontier. Then
the rittmaister raises the alarm and
calls his men to horse, and they start
off in pursuit Of an imaginary SNUG
gler in another direction, firing into
the air to show their zeal in the dis
charge of their duties. "a ruble on
either eye and ruble across the mouth

Shall Obey the Law.

Washington. Jan. 31.-It can be
said with authority that unless the
corporations constituting the alleged
"beef trust" shall heed the Injunction
made permanent by the decision Of
the supreme court of the United States
the government will institute proceed
ings against individual members Of
the corporation to enforce the decision
Of the court The proceedings will be
under the criminal law If such can be
instituted.
The minds of the president and
members Of his cabinet are made up
fully on the question. They have de-

obey the law and now that the highest
court in the land has upheld the hands
of the administration it is said they
will permit no further "dilly-dallying

California, when woman occupying

opened a window. Admiral Farragut
was i'll, and the strong draft Of wind
which blew directly upon him chilled
him. Mrs. Farragut asked the woman
courteously it she would not kindly
close the window, as 1t was annoying
to her husband. The woman snapped
out: "No, won't close the window,
don't care if it does annoy him. am
not going to smother for him." Ad-
miral Farragut thus caught severe
cold, which resulted in his death. A
few days before the end came he said,

When horses were first hitched to
vehicles the driver never thought Of
riding himself, but walked by the side
of the road as he held the lines. So as
to have his right hand always ready
he walked on the left side, and conse-
quently the horse on the left side came
to be known as the near" horse, and
the one on the right side Was called the
"of" horse. In that manner the terms
near horse" and "off horse" became
general and still pertain to horses
