Goat Mutton,

when you get a leg of mutton and
find ON trying to cook 1t that 1t seems
likely never to get done. it's goat"
says a local housekeeper.
THE only way Of distinguishing kid
from lamb or goat from mutton is that
the goat flesh requires longer to cook
and even when thoroughly done has a
reddish appearance as though it were
slightly rare. When properly prepared
goat flesh is just as tender. just as nu-
tritiOus as mutton and has exactly the
same flavor. There Is prejudice
against 1t. which, however. is entirely
III founded, and 1t is likely enough that
this feeling is due more to the comic
artists than to anybody else. In a
comic picture representing the goat the
old Billy is usually shown munching a
tomato can or straw hat or lot OF
clothes stolen from the line, but as a
fact the goat is just as particular
about his food as the sheep. eats about
the same kind and in spite of the comic
artist in about the same quantity. The
animal is just as cleanly as the sheep,
and the only reason why the butchers
do not openly avow their sales Of goat
meat is on account Of the unfounded
prejudice against 1t. 1t is sold under
the name of mutton.

Nero's Golden House,

The golden house Of Nero seems
from all accounts to have been the
most stupendous dwelling place ever
built for a mortal man. Even If we
regard the ancient descriptions as
somewhat exaggerated it remains one
of the largest royal houses ever built,
and the internal decorations seem to
have been incorlparably magnificent.
1t was surrounded by parks, woods
and pools of great size, which appear
to have been entirely within the walls.
The colonnades of the house itself ex-
tended a mile in length and crossed
one of the main thoroughfares of the
city. The cities Of the east were ran
sacked for masterpieces of Greek art
for the interior The walls shone with
gold and pearls, and the roof rested on
marble columns Of enormous size and
beauty.-New York American.

Emersons Memcry.

Emerson was a notable sufferer from
the vagaries of memory. His biogra-
pher relates that he met him one day
In Boston apparently at loss for
something and asked him where he
was going. ''To dinc," said Emerson,
with very old and dear friend. I
know where she lives, but hope she
won't ask me her name." And then he
proceeded to describe her as 'the
mother Of the wife Of the young man
the tall man-who speaks so we'll"
and so on, until his interlccutor guess
ed to whom he was referring. Even
the names Of common objects often
failed him completely. On one occa-
sion when he wanted an umbrella he
said: II can't tell its name. but l can
tell it's history. Strangers take 1t
away" This failing of Emerson led to
a pathetic scene when he attended
I.ongfellow's funeral and remarked as
he gazed at the coffin. "He was a
sweet and beautiful soul, but / have
entirely forgotten his name"

Auto Foand Serviceabie IN Making
Street PassabIe After Shows.
The man who brings together the
best productions in different lines and
obtains results which better his own
production may not be an inventor in
the true sense of the word. but he GER
tainly possesses good common sense.
In Vermont and other New England
states a road roller is used in the VIM
ter to pack down the snow and make
the roads passable. By doing this aft
er each snowstorm really fine winter
road results The method used in up
per New York Is to draw two large
iron kettles, such as are used for the
making Of soft soap. behind team Of
horses or oxen. This is not very per-
feet, as 1t leaves core in the road and
simply pushes the snow to the side II
the road instead of packing 1t down.
After recent snOwstorm In Read
ing, Pa, in which the roads were left
in bad condition, II. L. Hardy, the de
signer at a factory, conceived the idea
Of rolling the roads. He attached an
ordinary land roller to the front Of a
sextuplet and started from the factory
to the home Of Mr.. Sternbergh. Natn-
rally he did not try to break any speed
records, but the trip, about six miles.
was made in one hour.
One OF the road commissioners OF
Berks county accompanied him and
was much surprised to see what an
improvement this roller process was
over the kettle drag. Mr.. Hardy says
he will not patent or copyright this
idea, so any one who desires to roll
snow roads by automobile is free to

sc,.ne. For Il. Own Sake.

A prominent feature in Faraday's
character was his absolute love Of sc'-
ence for its own sake. He freely gave
his discoveries to his world when he
could easily have built up colossal
fortune upon them. He once told his
friend, Professor Tyndall, that at a
certain period Of his career he had
definitely to ask himself whether he
should make wealth or science the OBJ
ject Of his life He could not serve
both masters and was therefore COM
PEELED to choose between them. When
preparing his well known memoir OF
the great master, the professor called
to mind this conversation and asked
leave to examine his accounts. and
this is the conclusion the professor ar
rived at: Taking the duration Of his
life into account, this son Of black
smith and apprentice to bookbinder
had to decide between fortune OF
e150.OOO on the one side and his unen-
dowed science on the other. He chose
the latter and died poor man. But
bis was the glory of holding aloft
among the nations the scientific name
Of England for period OF forty years
