Good Luck With Beets.

My grandfather has excellent sue

varieties, says writer in Baltimore
American. He usually sows a patch
81 about 10 square rods, which gives
him a y1sld Of Is bushels, or at the
rate Of 1900 bushels to the acre. This
Is his method:
The land Is plowed in the fall, and
in the spring stable dressing at the
rate OF 80 double horse loads to tho
acre is well narrowed in. Commercial
fertilizer at the rate Of 1000 pounds
to the acre is sowed in the rows
which are three feet apart. Tho seed
Of which he uses about one-fourth ol
4 pound Of early kind, is sowed early
in June. Az soon as the plants ar
two or three inches tall he thins then
out some. He keeps the soil loose
around them and keeps them free from
weeds by tho use of a hand hoe.
The crop is usually harvested about
the middle Of October, and disposed o.
in our local markets at about 90 cents
per bushel during the fall and win
ter.

made. After a bath Of such bits as
have been cut out they are placed in a

the needles require only rinsing in

It is part Of the duty Of the Of

the Palais des Beaux Arts. The jurors
are then summoned to examine these

artist can make trouble for the pic

Some years ago Vollon had painted
what he deemed his masterpiece, a
luxurious pumpkin, orange in color
and heroic In size, such as one sees at
an agricultural show. The jurors did

RESTAURANTS.

They Really Had Their Origin In the
First French Revolution.
The restaurant Of the present time
had its origin in the first French revo-
luton, toward the close Of the eight
eenth century. And the reputation Of
the French for good cookery and the
delicacy Of taste in eating as we'll as
in producing toothsome dishes and
morsels dates practically from the
same time.
That revolution meant ruin to many
noble families, and their downfall
meant ruin also for their chefs, so
some Of the latter hit upon the idea
Of opening houses where dainties pre-
pared by their skilled hands could be
obtained. If the experiment succeed
ed the chefs would I've as well of as

when in service. The idea was pleas
ing to the public, the restaurants did
a large business, and the proprietoss
had no reason to regret the revolution
from a monetary point Of view.
Then it occurred to others that the
people might appreciate being educat-
ed up to this fine cookery, and many
books on the culinary art were pub
lished and sold well. One of the most
noted Of these was "The Gourman Al
manack," which appeared in 1888.

CARRIED Off BY A LION.
Thrilling Experience Of Ranger In
tho Transvaal.

: Thrilling Experience Of q Ranger In
tho Transvaal.
Two men at least have given &C.
counts Of their sensations when they
were carried off by lions-the great ex-
plorer Livingstone and man named
Wolhuter, a ranger Of game preserves
in the Transvaal. VOLUNTEERS adven-
ture is not secondary in interest to
Livingstone's experience. His story.
which was attested by the certificate
Of the magistrate of the district, was
substantially as follows:
about an hour after sunset. It had
been a long march. and he had pushed
on ahead Of his companions. His dog
barked at something, and, a moment
later Wolhuter saw lion crouching
close to him on the right hand side.
The ranger turned his horse sharply,
, circumstance that no doubt caused
the lion to miss the spring.
Wolhuter was unseated. At the same
moment he saw another lion coming
from the opposite direction. The
horse rushed off, with the first lion
in pursuit, and the second lion picked
Wolhuter up almost before he touched
the ground and gripped him by the
right shoulder in such a position that
he was face up. with his legs and body
dragging underneath the beast. The
lion trotted down the path, uttering a
loud, growing, purring noise.
VOLUNTEERS sensations were not those
Of Livingstone, who said he was in a
state Of apathy. with entire absence Of
pain during the time the lion had him.
The game ranger suffered terribly.
both mentally and physically, and saw
no possible way Of escape. The lion
took him nearly 200 yards.
Suddenly Wolhuter bethought him Of
his sheath knife, which he carried in
his belt behind his right hip. On reach
ing a large tree with overhanging roots
: the lion stopped, whereupon Wolhuter
stabbed him twice in the side with his
left hand. 1t was ascertained after
ward that the first stab touched the
bottom Of the heart and that the Sec
ond one slit it down for some distance.

bled to his feet, shouting at the top OF
his lungs. He expected the beast to
come at him again, but it did not In

ing, went few PAGES Soon its growls

ceased, and the ranger knew that the
beast was then dead.
Wolhuter got up the tree as fast as
his injured arm would permit, and
hardly was he seated when the first
lion, which had been after the horse,
came back on the trail Of blood. BY
this time the plucky ranger was so
faint that he tied himself to the tree
to prevent himself from falling out

who took hin to place Of safety. The
lion he had killed was an old male, and
the weapon used was an ordinary
sheath knife.-New York Tribune.
