RAISING Peppermint for oiI.

The cultivation of PEPPERMINT fol
the oil was demonstrated as sue
cessful crop in this section of lows
this year by Robert Ulrath of Han
cock county, who has harvested -four
acres of mint which Melted him 6
profit of s65 per acre, the oil selling
for $3.50 per pound. The season
was wet and cold, which retarded
the crop which was raised on semi
wet land.
The mint is cultivated like corn
being drilled, in rowed one way, har
vested with a mower and horse rake
and hauled in basket racks. Two
watts holding forty or more barrels
fitted with tight covers, are made
to receive the mint which is pressed
down as tightly as possible and the lie
closed. A steam engine forces steam
into the bottom of the vat, pipe
from the top leading to system OF
tin pipes which are cooled with
streams of water constantly poured
over them which condenses the
steam and from carry pipe comes
the distillation water and oil. The
water Is easily drawn OF as the
oil rises. Weeds make no trouble
only add to the bulk in handling

Windows.
"One thing / am apt to forget,
said Mr.. Jawginson, lis that I mus,
look kout for beggars when / stop to
look in a window For you see in
such a situation the beggar has the
advantage of you.
IF when aceosted you are walking
along the sidewalk, as you might say
under way, why, then you are like
ship in motion, you are under con.
troll and you are more likely to have
your wits about you and you can
sheer of or speed up and get away.
But it is different when the beggar
catches you looking in at the window,
as beggars are very apt to do.
Then, you see, you are intent upon
what you are looking at and so you
are off your guard. Yon are taken, as
1t were, while at anchor.
Thus surprised and practically cap.
tured you are not unlikely to give up
something to your captor.
Experience has taught me that
when i halt to look in at a window
| want to keep weather eye out for
piratical craft that come alongside
very silently, never hailing till they
come to close quarters, and so making
i all but impossible for me to escape.

rule, and sometimes / can see 'em

and then, as If ! had been just about
to go, start up easily. with my eyes
still on the things in the window. bat

time, and sail on, and so elude the
pursuer, who is himself perhaps this
time little surprised.
But sometimes / forget and then
l am likely to have to pay. Yester
day, for instance, l stopped to look
at two notices pasted on an Office
door and i quite forgot. Then / heard
a voice unmistakable, though this was
very low voice and l couldn't make
out what it said, and turning l saw
a woman, small, slender woman in
black dress and black shawl, and with
head to one side and hand extended
the attitude of a beggar, though
truly she didn't look like one.
"Of course gave something, not
much, but something, and she said,
Thank you,' in the same low voice,

"MoDEL" MOSQUITOES.
But, Alas! They Are Merely models"

The models of the malarial mos
quito that have just been installed in
the centre of Synoptic Hall, on the
ground floor, are the result of a pro-
digious amount of labor that no one
would dream of. Or. B. E. Danlgren,
under whose direction they were put
together, gave practically a years
time to them, and he had one or two
assistants for the same period. Some
idea of the work involved may be
gathered from the fact that it took

x-Rays.

Before the German Society OF Phys
les, F. Dessauer recently exhibited
an apparatus for the production OF
X-rays of extraordinary penetrating
power, his idea being that such rays
might prove useful in the medicR;
treatment of deepseated diseasesSBy
employing Roentgen tubes In which
the exhaustion of the air is carried
to a very high degree, and through
which. in consequence, the electric
discharge can be sent only by means
of very great tension, he produced
rays so penetrating that they readily
passed through the bones as well as
the flesh, so that Photograph of the
hand made with these rays showed
hardly any image of the bones. With
ordinary rays the nergy at TIE surface
of the body is hundred times more
intense than at a depth of five mill
metres in the tissues. With Dessau
er's rays the penetration is very
much more profound.-Youth's Com

The merchant realized that there

"Here is your dinner" said the
nurse next day, as she gave the glow

that everything else you do must be

CARE OF THE KITCHEN.
Clean Walls Are an Essential to
Sanitary Cooking.

It is not only important to know
how to cook, but it is equally impor'
tant to know where to cook Cook.
ing in a dirty kitchen can never pro-
duce good food The idea is simply
preposterous, yet kitchen walls are
left for months-sometimes for years
without cleansing.
In the first place the kitchen wall
should have a light tint that the mer-
est tleck of dirt can be seen; that the
sheerest oobweb can be brushed
away; that the tiniest water bug can
be discerned. 1t is all folly expecting
clean food in a kitchen with dirty
walls.
Never put a wall coating on
kitchen wall that is mixed with hot
water or that has glue in it, or sour
milk in it if mixed with cold water.
Glue walls made from horses hoofs
colored up with cheap colorngs do
not indicate good housekeeping. The
glue is constantly tlecking off, fall
ing into the food and the idea of food
favored with glue made from horses
hoofs is not appetizing.
Kitchen walls to be thoroughly sat
isfactory Should be alabastined the
same as every other wall in the
house. They should be coated regu-
larly in the spring and fail of each
year with light tint.
The care of the pantry requires
constant attention. The walls should
be brushed over every year, the
dishes removed from the shelves
which should be thoroughly wiped
with hot water. If there are ant
holes or any other insects in the pan
tries I thicl. putty of the wall coat
ing can be II AIDE and all the ant holes,
even small mice holes can be filled
with it which will protect the pantry
from the incursions of disagreeable
insects and mice.
