How to Deal With the Butcher.

1t is quite as true that wisdom is
money as that time is money, and
never so true as when dealing with
the butcher. To know how to buy a
piece of beef that will cost only
twenty cents but when cooked Alright
will be as delicious and as nourishing
as one which cost forty cents means
money to the housewife. Many house
wives, however, do not even know one
cut of beef from another except as the
butcher labels it. Along these lines
a series of articles in the New IDEA
WoMAN's MAGAZINE is giving in
formation. Miss Elizabeth w. Nor
rison, the well-known writer on food
topics, talks of "The Hind Quarter
OF Beef in the February number,
showing by diagrams where each cut
lies and following the general treat
ment of the subject by a number Of
good recipes, such as pot roast and
beefsteak rolls. The future numbers
will take up veal and lamb in the
same way.

YOUR OWN FACE.
Would You Recognize II If You Saw
Ii on Another!

How curious it is" said the philos-
opher, that the person for whom you
care most on earth, the one you see
Oftenest and who receives your most
constant attention, Is the one whose
countenance is least familiar to you"
who is that?" asked the visitor.
Yourself" said the philosopher. at
is fact that If people could be dupli-
Gated and could meet themselves in the
street very few would recognize them
selves. We look at ourselves many
times during the 3G5 days of the year.
We say our eyes are blue or brown or
whatever other color they may be, our
hair black, our chin peaked, our fore
head high. We know every lineament
Of our face from constant study and
attention, yet when we turn away
from the mirror we cannot conjure up
n picture Of ourselves.
I'VE know just how our friends and
even acquaintances look. In fancy we
| can see them sitting SO or standing so,
and their varying expressions under
different circumstances are clear to us
even though we may not have seen
them for years, but when 1t comes to
ourselves we cannot fill in even the
outlines of the picture. We may laugh,
we may cry, we may frown, but we do
not know how we look while we are
doing it. Photographs do not help us.
We have never seen ourselves in the
flesh. Mirrors and pictures are poor
aids when we sit down and try to see
ourselves with the minds eye.
THAT Is why people are so deeply
interested in anybody who is said to
resemble them. Just say to man,
I know somebody who Is the dead i'm
age of you and he will never rest till
he sees that person. Then if the like
ness is really true he will own that
up " that time he had had no concep.
tion of how he really looked"
The visitor smiled wanly.
81 wish you wouldn't talk like that"
she said. ut makes me feel positively
uncanny."-New York Press.

"In Paris only one-ffth of the voteri
go to the polls and cast their ballots"
said an American who has lived In
Paris as n business man for several
years past This is not because they
cannot vote, but because they do not
care to. Everybody IN the city Is in.
terested in politics, but when the time
to vote comes few care to go to the
polls. The man who wins is most
often the man who promises every
thing, For instance, in my district
last time mar was elected who
promised to put new shed on the
market. I know of another deputy
who was kept In office fifteen years be-
cause he promised to add an extra sar.

the Legislature would make no

MAKING WAMPUM.
A Process That Requires Both Pa
tienCe and Skill.

thence and Skill.
With certain tribes wampum is still
highly priZed and necklaces are worn
by men, women and children when
they are the fortunate possessors OF
them. To make wampum various kinds
of shells are used, white and those
having a lavender hue being most
liked.
The thin shells are broken into little
as nearly round as possible. When
each piece is drilled in the center, the
old time fire kindling style of drill be-
ing used, the shells are then strung and
rolled with the hand on a fiat stone,
which grinds them until they are
smooth and even.
Comparatively few Indians among
those who prize wampum beads most
highly have the skill or patience to
make them, even though they had the
materials. The fact is there are but
few wampum bead makers in the coun-
try, and 1t often happens that long pill
grimages must be made to secure the
requisites for really fine beads, and, as
with the white mans trinkets, that
which is "far fetched and dear bought"
is most sought after for ornamentatlon

were already on their knees ready to

that he was pretty safe in complying
with the request. "Then." continued
Schoenenburg, "if | walk to the sec

pardon them also?" The judge replied
that If such a miraculous feat could
be performed he would obtain pardons
for the other three also The bandit
was now satisfied, and, bending his
head, he received the fatal blow. In

If we may take Professor Morse

If we may take Professor Morse,
of Johns Hopkins University, at his
word and belief, perhaps our coal sup
ply will last few hundred years
longer than is now believed. A short
time ago he invented a new type of
electric furnace, and recently he 81
improved it that it can now be easily
used for cooking. Its great value
consists in the fact that the heat can
be increased or diminished one degree
in a moment, and maintained at any
given temperature for an indefinite
period. DR.. Morse is now engaged in
experimenting with the values of var
ious food stufis, and the temperatures
at which they must be prepared in
order to produce the best results. 1t
is not difficult to see the great value
ofthis invention if the predictions of
the discoverer shall be realized.

AN IMPERIAL POLICY.

The keynote of the German Emperor's exposf-

again peace Yet of all the rulers Of the world,

pre-eminently known as the War Lord. 1t is
now nearly twenty years since William II sue
ceeded to the thrones OF Prussia and Germany.
He had then the reputation of restless ambi-
tious aggressive even belicose, prince 1t had
long been a common remark even among those
who considered themselves well informed that
he would very soon involve the empire and the
continent in war. Yet nineteen and half years
have passed without fulfment of those FORE
bodings. On the contrary. in all that time Ger
many has been one of the most peaceful prob
ably the most peaceful. Of all the considerable
powers of Europe. Great Britain has had vari-
Gus little wars and one big one, and the same
NAV be said of Russia. France and Italy have
had wars In foreign parts. Spain. Greece and
Turkey have had serious wars. austria. Hun
gary. Rumanis, Sweden and Norway have all
been on the brink of war. and have probably
worried more over the prospect and the fear of
war than has Germany. But Germany has
manned at s5solute peace in Europe. and has
