Very few farmers wives have any way to catch the bits of butter that come through the hole in the churn when draining off the buttermilk Makes good buttermilk, but think of the loss in the course of single sea, son!

OCEAN MUSIC.
A New Rage in the Music World.

A New Rage In the Music World.
From information furnished by the
Tolbert r. Ingram Music Company of
Denver, Colorado, the indications are
that the music buying public is getting
the Ocean Music" craze. 1t all origi-
mated with the publication by this firm
of the little ocean characteristic,
"Nymphs o. the Mist" and the next
few years will, no doubt, see the issu-
ance of many new pieces along this
special line. The music publishers
generally try to supply what the pub
lie calls for and now the desire seems
to be for Ocean Music" "Nymphs o.
the Mist" possesses that weird charm
that the ocean characterizes. 1t is nos
a complicated number, but at the same
time 1t Is well written and appeals
alike to the best musical taste as we'll
as TO the popular fancy. From present
indications, the sale of this number
will far exceed the publishers most
sanguine expectations.
This incident is only another exam
pie of the unexpectedness of public APP
proval. AS a music dealer remarked
the other day. You can never tell
what will make a hit with the public;
but after all is said, you will find that
pieces that sell the best possess some
peculiar charm either in melody,
rhythm or sentiment that is not a
part of the many pieces that are fail
ures, and as a court of last resort, the
public can generally be depended upon
TO render a fair decision. think the
whole secret of success is originality.

The Police Population.

Today a uniformed, organized and
disciplined police force for a systemat-
ic patrol of the streets exists not only
in all large cities of the world, but
also in every considerable town in
Europe and America. The London
force of $4,000 constitutes by far the
largest body, while other large cities
follow in the order of their population
New York, 10000; Paris, 1900; Der
lin, 1900; Vienna, s,40O. These are
not only the largest in total number of
men. but in each case they represent
the largest number of policemen in

OBJECTED TO LONG NAMES.
English Clergyman Had His Own Way
at christenings.

An English clergyman, DR.. Freder
iclI Lee had a prejudice against a
long string of Christian names, and
held that If such names were pro
posed the clergyman should alter
them at baptism, whether the parents
were willing or not. 1t was said oil
him that he christened all the boys
Frederick after himself and all the
girls Mary after the Virgin. The au
thor of "The Life of Walter Pater'
gives DR.. Lees method of christening
as follows:
name this child" he would say in
his authoritative voice.
Archibald Cholmondeley Constan
tine Ferdinand" perhaps the mother
would whisper.
Frederick" she would hear, to her
amazement, and then would follow the
formula of baptism.
In the vestry, of course, there would
be objection.
This child" DR.. Lee would reply,
will have to get his living in the
world, and what do you want to handi
cap him with Archibald Campbell
Cholmondeley and all the rest of them
for? Anyhow, it's done, and can't be
altered"

1t makes use of the principle that the
tension of a saturated vapor depends
solely on the temperature, and is in

the liquor from which it is produced

apparatus consists simply of a reser-
voir to contain the vapor, connected
with a copper tube of any required

WHAT THE LAWYERS GOT.
The Usual Thing When Two Fools
Go to Law About Nothing.

Under the headline, "An expensive
Gooseberry Bush" an American paper
prints this story: ION the boundary
line of two farms near r. there is
a large gooseberry bush, from which
the two farmers have for years
gathered the product What grows
on my side is mine, and you may have
the rest was the agreement. Three
years ago the neighbors had mis-
understanding, and this came to
climax when the gooseberries became
ripe. A lawsuit followed, and appeals
were made to higher judicial bodies.
The final decision has just been re-
corded. This gives both parties the
right to pick the berries which grow
on their side of the line-just as it
was originally--and denies the right
to destroy the bush to both contest
ants. The costs were charged half
to each litigant. Each farmer had
to pay 225 kronen. The yearly yield
of the bush will bring about II krone

ers: With good luck, it will take you

coins are similar to Chinese money,
