How to Win a Good Husband.

Make your pie crust rich. slice your
apples thin. put in plenty of them and
use lots of sugar" said Mrs f. w.
Seymour, the 67-year-old bride of Jus
tice of the Peace Seymour. aged rs, of
haywood yesterday when asked for
her receipt for apple pies. Mrs. Sey-
mour is said to have won the heart,
hand and fortune Of her husband by
making him luscious pies. and she
gave q detailed receipt for the benefit
of other widows who might wish to
use the same sort of inducement.
"Sift thoroughly a sieve half full Of
-four. Season with a teaspoonful Of
salt Add a heaping teasponful of lard
and mix we'll together. Add a little
cold water. Pour in gradually so this
mixture will just stay together. Roll
IL out and handle as little as possible.
Flour your tins and roll the paste as
thin as possible. Fit the size of tons,
line generously with thin slices of ap-
pies. add a pinch of cinnamon and a
half cup of sugar. Cut top piece or
cover and fold once. Stab several
tinmes with a fork to let the air out.
Cover with fold after moistening edge
to keep the juice from running out.
Trim off the edge. Take thumb and
forefinger of left hand. pressing down
with forefnger of right hand and out
line the pie so the crusts will be even.
Bake in quick oven till nice and
brown"
Whether this particular recipe is bet
ter than others depends upon ones
ability as a cook, but at any rate Mrs.
Seymour won the justice and they are
happily married. They returned yes
terday from their wedding trip to
Theresa, Wis.
"It wasn't an elopement," said JUS
tice Seymour. I'VE just made up are
minds to marry and didn't explain

IIuuid HeIium,

In his recent experiments with the
liquefaction Of helium. Professor
Onnes .,erformed a labor of the most
exhausting description. Not only"
we are told, was the whole apparatus,
with its subsidiary arrangements, test
ed to its utmost capacity. but the ply
sical energies of the professor and his
assistants were well-nigh exhausted
by the prolonged struggle" This is
likely to give to most readers an en-.
tirely novel idea of the labors Of the
laboratory. When the absolute zero
is approached the obstacles that have
to be overcome in order to lower the
temperature q few degrees are i'm
mense. The boiling-pcint of liquid
helium is four and one-half degrees
Centigrade above absolute zero. BY
great effort the temperature was re-
duced to three degrees, but without
affecting the mobility of the liquid.

represented a young woman coiling

such that the owners other compan-
ions stood open-mouthed in admira-

to Mark Twain for his verdict, what
do you think of it? Grand, isn't it?'
"Yes, it's very pretty" said Mark,
but it's not true to nature!" why
not?" nqiireu every one in surprise

Efforts Of jacksonville Man May Help
Perfume Industry.
In 1892 Frank Mira, OF Jackson
vile, Fla, discovered a twig which
seemed to him ri some use to the per-
fumer. He submitted it to MIR. E. Mou-
lie, of that city, says the Scientific
American, who was engaged in the
business of extracting essences. The
plant Immediately interested Mr.. Mou-
lie, who SIC 1eeded in producing from
it an essential oil. Many attempts on
the part o. Mr.. Moulie and the United
States Department of Agriculture to
ascertain the scientific name Of the
plant finally resulted in its identified.
ton as Mentha citrata, very rare
plant which is popularity called berga-
mon mint. From year to year Mr..
Moulie has increased and developed
the few plants which he has been able
to obtain, and is now engaged in
gratuitously distributing the plant for
general propagation. We believe that
in this manner a very valuable per
fume industry may some day be built
up on the cultivation of this rare
plant.
