QUALITY AND PURITY IN SPICES.

It is an easy matter TO adulteraVe
anv of the spicee in common use.
The temptation to do this is great
because pure spices are costly, wniie |
their adulterants are usually waste
products of little market value. i
Black pepper is extended by means or
such substances as cocoanut shells,
huckwheat bulls, wheat -four, owe
stones, wheat screenings, bisculF,
corn meal, tumeric, and even sano.
| Sone of these substances, also MID
! dlings, are used to extend white pep
per, and even cayenne may De
sophisticated with corn or tumeric.
Cinnamon is adulterated with cocoa
nut shells and wheat products, cloves
with Glove stems, cocoanut she lis and
dirt, while allspice is doctored up
with the same articles, or with pea
m eal
Yet there are plenty of these spices
on the market that are not adulter-
ated. Indeed the Connecticut station
reports 11S samples pure and 5S
adulterated. If the housewife insists
on pure spices, and pays the price
necessary to obtain them, she can be
, pretty sure to get such seods. But
when she is willing to accept some
thing ''just as good but cheaper" she
is Offering a premium upon adultera-
ton that makes her partly response

THE REAL VALUE.
How All Literature Is Contained In
Few Great Books.


Young people must every now ana
then hear it said or see it written that
all the real value in literature can pe
put upon a small shelf-that is to say
the really important part of all that Is
written is contained in a very few
good books, all the rest being either
unimportant or different ways OF say
ing the same things that have peen
kaid before. The statement, OF course,
Is not true if it beNstaken zllteraily.
There are certainly many hundreds,
perhaps thousands, of books that con-
tain original thoughts or experiences
| that are truly valuable; but, generally
| speaking, the best part of all that mas
been written is to be found in rev
volumes. To understand how this Is
possible we must remember that near
| ly all rules are the same as othef anu
simpler rules In arithmetic, Tor eX-
ample, the whole science consists OF
only four simple ways of treating num-
bers. We can add, subtract, muitlply
and divide, and that is all we can DO
TO numbers. The rest of the book is
only the working out of these Ioul
rules; thus all of the arithmetic could
easily be put into little page ha'
one could carry in the vest pocket.
All behavior, all right living, IS also
set forth in a few simple laws. Ihese
Illustrations will show what is mean
by saving that all literature is contain
ed in a few great books. Inc blpl'
, and the works of a few famous poet
and essayists contain all human WIS
dom. and these are within the reach
every purse.-St. Nicholas.

The Lions Share.

It is really not the male lion, with
his terrific roar and formidable ap-
pearance, that the explorer fears, but
his mate. The male lien is good
looking poser, but when it comes to
business it is his wife who counts, a
la the African native. Game is pulled
down by female lion, and then the
male beats her off until he has Toasted
to repletion, when she may have what
is left; hence "the lions share"

Little CannibaIS.

Every once in a while we hear OF
breeders complaining of the cannibal-
istic habits among growing fowls. espe-
cially among those still in the days of
their early babyhood. This pernicious
habit, when once the young birds be-
come thoroughly addicted to it, is rath-
er difficult to control and suppress.
Usually it finds its chief expression in
flocks confined to close quarters, where
the ground is bare and the feed is
wanting in animal matter. Bird life
under natural conditions finds oppor-
tunity for work and play in the hunt
ing of insects for food and in the care
full selection of such vegetable mat
ter as its system may demand. Young
chicks, when confined, are obviously
deprived of these opportunities for
healthful exercise: the result is that
they become idle, which engenders
vicious habits and a craving for some
thing to do as we'll as for animal food.
When in this condition if a member
of the little flock shows a wound or
effects of blood, the chances are that
one or two will at once commence 10
peck at it, which leads the others on,
and soon the whole flock will be rend-
ing the little one into shreds. devour-
ing it before one has opportunity to re-
lieve its misery or to isolate it from
the flock. The remedy, of course, is
obvious, namely, afford the young
chicks a wider range and be more care
full in your feeding by making it
point to keep them busy by throwing
the food into litter or suspending a
head of lettuce or cabbage where they
can peck at it; also supply in one form
or another animal food. A good way
to do this is to take the underground
chick feeds, which of them
selves are a balanced ration, and scat
ter the same in litter of chopped
straw or hay, about one and one-half
or two inches deep. In fact, anything
that will make litter may be consid-
cred available.

TO fight, and we had fine view. The
Dogs came up 10y two and threes, barking
at him in a ring, till last, Snap, the
little white one rushed up. He wasted
no time barking, but rushed straight at
the VOLTS throat and missed It, yet
seemed to get him by the nose; then the
ten big Dogs closed in, and in two minutes
the wolf was dead. Snap had lived up
to my promises for him.
Now 1t was my turn to crow, and did
not lose the chance. Snap had shown
them how, and at last the Mendoza
pack had killed Gray-wolf without help
There were two things to mar the
victory somewhat; first, it was n young
Wolf, n mere Cub: second, Snap was
wounded-the Wolf had given him bad

New Clothes for Easter

The flowers with which many church
es are ornamented on Easter Day are
most probably emblems of the Resur-
rection. There are people today who
think that unless something new is
worn on Easter Day no good fortune
will come to them during the year.
The Dorsetshire poet, Barnes, gives us
this quaint little verse in regard to
this custom:
"Laste Easter I put on my blue frock
coat, the vust time, very new;
WI yaller buttons aal O. brass
That glittered in the zun like glass;:
Bekaize, 'twer Easter Zunday.

the public press as to which system
was better: the American custom
which ordained the sack suit in busi-
ness and a change of raiment for
laborers after hours; or the English
custom which set the frock coat up
as the emblem of responsibility among
tradesmen, mark distinguishing
them from the laboring classes and
kept the latter in blouse and hob
nailed boots during his hours of rest.
In England they talk lot of what
seems awful rot to this side of the
water, and they take clothes very
seriously. Each class has its gar
ments and each garment its use.
In London the Tuxedo is still a
lounge coat, something to be slipped
on during the early evening and dis
carded for the formal swallow tall
before starting for any entertainment.
But the American has forced 1t into
public life, has ordained a black tie
and gold shirt studs with it, in place
Charlevoix county herald., 1906-05-26
NEW FRENCH MOTOR RAILROAD TRUCK.

Of the white tie and pearl studs that
must be worn with the tailed coat.
The American speaks of his Tuxedo
suit and his dress suit. The English
man talks of his evening clothes, and
would as soon think Of changing his
trousers to match his smoking jacket,
as of changing his studs and tie to
accord with his Tuxedo.
While the vast majority of men buy
their clothes ready" or "semi-ready'
made, most men regard with envy the
one who has time and money to have
his clothes made and fitted. The En-
glishman of means considers it his
duty to have his clothes made by the
very best tailors and to wear them as
badly as possible. AS he can rarely
remain long at time within his own
country, London custom tailors have
stored in their safes measurements of
hundreds of wandering Britons who
usually cable from various parts OF
the world when they need new
clothes. These measurements are a
valuable asset and insurance on them
frequently amounts to several thou
sand pounds sterling.
AS matter of fact, the best dressed
man in the world is neither the New
Yorker nor the Londoner, but the man
who gets his frock coat, cutaway and
evening clothes from the Bond Street
tailors, who have made these styles
of masculine dress for centuries, and
his sack suits and overcoats from
Fifth Avenue, where one might say
they were invented.
