In carving a leg of mutton or ham, be.
gin by cutting across the middle of the
bone.

STAGECOACHES.
The First American Line Was Run
Tv~

The First American Line Was Run
In New jersey In 1744.
As public conveyances or the stage
coach had been in vogue In England
since 1910, the establishment Of SIM
liar convenience was demanded In
America many years before the war
for independence. AS early as 1144,
therefore, a stage line started to run
between New Brunswick and Trenton,
N. j., and by 1856 this route had been
extended over from New York to Phil
adelphia. Moreover, as in England, SO
in America, the advent Of the stage
coach necessitated marked improve
ments in the highways, while the build
ing of better roads and turnpikes nat
urally created greater demand for
more coaches, and, what was more to
the purpose, lighter vehicles. In I'LL
there were but thirty-eight convey
ances of every description in the city
of Philadelphia. but by 1904 their num-
Der had increased to S21, more than
two-thirds of which were comparative
" light vehicles, condition which led
one of the local papers to publish a
most deprecatory article concerning the
use Of conveyances, in which it was
stated that the custom Of riding was
then being carried to such extrava-
gance that "even farmers want car
riages." -Metropolitan Magazine.

SACRED ANIMALS.
The Way the Brute World IL Regard
ed by Natives of India.

The Way the Brute World liz Regard
ell by Natives of India.
India's pets are not royal, but celes-
tial. To write of animals in the land
which keeps its Vedic prayers and for
gets the names of its emperors, one
must leave solid ground and ascend to
heaven, must speak in poetry, not prose,
in hyperbole rather than in plain
speech. The question of animals can
not, indeed, be soberly treated. Every
where one sees acts toward them that
can be explained only by their sacred
and legendary Importance. One can
scarcely believe ones senses. This at
titude is not the fantasy Of a moment
nor the bette blanche, so to speak, Of a
single author. 1t is the accumulated
national delrium Of thousands of
years. To detach such animal worship
from Indian life is to tear the rug to
pieces, and we can weave nothing more
beautiful.
The place held by these creatures In
India Is different from that accorded
them in any other country. Every ami
NAL Is looked upon as but the covering
Of a spirit. Is not its mind with God?
Are not its auras and vibrations far
purer than ours? May not even the
soul Of our grandmother look from its
eyes? May not we ourselves return to
lower than its state If we give 1t not
reverence? Such conceptions are not
called from obsolete thought, but from
the vibrant lip and life Of India today.
Once is always in the orient. ut Is
your misfortune that you have to talk
so much of progress" said a sage to
me-''we have progressed."-Edmund
Russell in EverybOdy's.

HUMAN DISSECTION.
Surgery and the AnatOmists In the
Oldeu Dayn.

Surgery and the Anatomists In the
Olden Days.
For a long time Alexandria was the
only medical center Of the world, and
the physician Galen, born about 13O
A. D., had to journey from Rome to
the African city even to see skeleton.
He sent his students to the German
battlefields to dissect the bodies of the
national enemies, while he himself used
apes as most resembling human beings.
Human dissection was revived In Bo-
logna In the fourteenth century. where
Madonna Manzolina later was profess
or Of anatomy, undoubtedly one OF the
first women doctors, II not the very
first. Leonardo da Vinci, painter OF
"The Last Supper" was great anat.
omist, but dissection had fallen into
disuse when Vesalius finally revived
1t about the middle Of the sixteenth
century.
Even in comparatively modern times
.anatomists have been the object of at
tacks by the populace. In 1865 Dr.
John Shipper Of Philadelphia was mob
bed as a grave robber. Doctors riots
in New York occurred twenty-three
years later and were due to the belief
that the medical students robbed
graves continually. 1t was the lack OF
opportunity to obtain subjects regular
ly that led to the practice Of grave rob-
bling and originated what DIR. Keene
calls "a set of the lowest possible VII
lains--the resurrectionists." New York

Take Care of Your Teeth.


Ali decay of the teeth begins from
without. Consequently if the teeth's
surfaces be kept scrupulously clean
they cannot decay. Let the child early
acquire the habit of using small
toothbrush dipped into chalk favored
with some aromatic drug, and let 1t un.
derstand that the places most needing
the brush are those between the teeth.
That is the place where decay almost
invariably appears. Mucous secretions
and secretions of food are always found
between the teeth after meal. They
may be removed with toothpick. II
is almost an art to use toothpick.
One must beware Of injuring the feshy
parts and leaving splinters, which in
some cases may cause the loss Of a
tooth. Metal toothpicks should be al.
together avoided. Those Of dull and
hard wood are best.-London Lancet

A Few Words About Apples.

A Few Words About Apples.
The reason why apples are 80 much
more wholesome and digestible when
they are roasted, boiled or baked 10 be-
cause the heat thus applied breaks down
the cells of the apple, and thus the acid
and the sugar contained in them are
more generally diffused through the ap-
pies, and the moisture il also dispersed.
A French way of cooking apples which
we have seldom come across, excepting
In the homes of those who have lived in
that country, is as follows: Core and pare
your apples and place them in baking
tin, having filled the space left by the
removal of the core with butter and
brown sugar. Sprinkle brown sugar
and bits of butter about between the ap-
pies in the tin, and then bake. These
are most delicious.
An apple and orange salad is also a
very nice and little known wsy of using
apples. Slice the oranges, after remov.
ing skin and scraping off the pulp, into a
bowl, mix with the slices some apples
cut into quarters or eighths. Put plenty
of sugar in between each layer and mix
well. Let this be made about an hour
before you need to use it. 1t is q nice
dish, for the oranges give very delicate
flavor to the apples, and both 60 very
we'll together.
Apples are considered wholesome even
when eaten raw. One taken at breakfast
every morning is supposed to be good
for the complexion, and those who suffer
from liver trouble or govt would do well
to use them. Apples are considered to
be of high value as brain food, owing to
the amount of phosphorus they con-
tain. Dyspeptics are often ordered ap-
Piles, and, curiously enough, they are a
preventive of jaundice.
When a tickling sensation In your
throat warns you of the coming of q
cough, you would find tablespoonful
of the pulp of a roasted apple taken at
night great relief.
Stewed apples placed in the centre of
a rice pudding make variety In that
every day dish. When the rice has been
cooked on the fire pour it into e-dish,
and make a space for the apples in the
middle. Small pieces of butter scatter
ed over the top and some brown sugar
are great Improvement Bake in a
slow Oven.-Ex.
