Why the Menu Was CHANGED.

The culinary department. of an East
Indian household. if the story of an
American traveller who has recently re-
turned from Calcutta is to be believed,
is managed far differently from an
American kitchen. Here we employ
an Ethiopian expert at so much 4
week. says the Philadelphia Record.
! There a cook would disdain to place
weekly valuation on his services.
His conditions involve fiat rate of so
many shillings weekly for the furnish
ing and preparation of provisions. This
system of putting the culinary depart
ment out to contract causes Il penuri-
BUSINESS on the part of the chef which
frequently is not for the best health
and welfare of the household Short
ly before last Christmas the above
named American tourist had ordered
his cook to have steak for dinner.
Broiled chicken was served instead.
Pressed for his reasons for disregard
ing the command Of the head of the
household, the cook explained that the
chicken had taken sick and if it had
not been killed and served that day he
was afraid he would have lost it,

First Wheel Clock.

Some say that Archimedes made the;
first wheel clock as early at 200 3. c.
Others give credit to Wallingford. who
lived so late as the beginning of the
fourteenth century But the most per-
feet water clocks were, long before the
latter period. furnished with wheels.
SO that the only improvement was the
substitution of solid body to act as
moving weight instead of water 1t
is not to be wondered at that the APP
plication of a weight to clocks as a
moving power should attract so little
attention, as water and sand were un-
doubtedly thought more convenient by
contemporary writer's The oldest com.
plete clock moved by weights is prob
ably that sent by the sultan of Turkey
to Frederick II. in 1882. In the thir-
teenth century many of the church
steepleS in Italy were furnished with
clocks moved by weights. which struck
the hours. Hele of Nuremberg is sup
posed to have constructed the first
watch in 1900, and to him must also
be given the credit of the spring clock
The fusee was probably invented in
England about the end of the six
teenth century. But it was not until
the middle of the seventeenth century
that the pendulum was first applied TO
clocks by Huyghens.

day asked a friend which of all the
inventions of their day had doGe the
most for the people as a whole. His
friend guessed this and that. but the
answer was:
Beyond doubt. sixpenny photo

A reply involving quite as great an
absurdity as that was made by Cecil
Rhodes in answer to Il lady who,
seeking to draw him out suggested
that he owed his phenomenal rise to
the impetus of noble sentiments.
Madam returned Mr. ,~:hodes. Il

cold mutton"
"Cold muttonr' gasped the lady.
"Oh. Mr. Rhodes. what do you mean?.
When was young" continued the
South African millionaire, Il was so
dosed with cold mutton and | hated it
SO cordially that resolved TO grow
rich in order to put it on one side for
the rest of my life. Yes, madam. cold
mutton was at the root of my success.
Noble sentiments had nothing TO do
with it."

Farm and Home Comments.

The manufacturing of oleomargarine
seems to be on the increase. The re-
port is given by Hoard's Dairyman of
July 16 says that on May l, 1905, the
amount for the year was 60, 988, $50 lbs.
and year later 70, 107, 270 lbs, making
a gain of nearly 26,000,000 lbs. in the
three years. If all of this is used for
the same purposes as butter then OF
course it displaces just that much OF
the latter and proves that enough peo-
pie prefer to use it, not because it is as
good, but simply because butter is so
high in price, and at present feed prices
butter must remain high.
In general prices for farm produce
have never been so high as just now.
Not an article produced on the farm
today but what brings a good price.
Whether it is grain, milk, fruit, honey,
meat or forage, or even the smaller by
products of the farm, the price offered
is good. We all rejoice in the farmers
prosperity, for we all live Close to the
soil and there is fellow feeling-a
rugged sympathy. And yet there are
some who would leave the country and
the country towns for the great cities,
where the struggle for existence is
keen and merciless, where competition
for jobs is so sharp as to keep wages
down and where the cost of living is
high. No class of people have so
healthful, care-free and independent an
existence today as those who live in
the country. Not but what we have
our troubles, trials and tribulations, to
be sure, but they are not to be COM
pared with the fierce, never-ending
strain of the battle for a living that is
always being waged in the crowded
centers of population.

What an Inch Of Rainfall Means.

An acre is 6,272,640 square inches.
An inch of water on an acre is, there
fore, 6,272,640 cubic inches. That
amount, at 277 cubic inches to the gal
lon, equals $4,000 gallons, or 23O, 900
pounds, or 100 tons. An inch of rain
is, in other words, rain falling at the
rate of 100 tons to the acre.
