ICE CREAM FROM SOUR MILK.

Some half dozen years ago there
was young. college educated Dane
living in Sioux City, Ia. who had a
mania for experimenting with sour
milk drinks. While in college he be-
came acquainted with the famous
theory of Metchnikoff that the pro-
longation of life depends largely on
the introduction into the system Of
plenty of the bacilli found in sour
milk.
Pampercd on sweets, however. the
young American has prejudice
against the sweets which have
spoiled" and so hurried pellmell into
a grave which might have been bar
ricaded behind a sour milk can.
This young, inventive Dane was not
slow in discovering another national
tendency. The American will par
take of things with a relish if he
does not know for sure what they
are. So he set about To doctor up
his sour milk drinks with fruit juices
and flaVoring extracts, working all
the time toward beverage which
should contain the healthful bacteria
without the-to the American-un-
palatable flavor.
II was not long until the little
workshop of the Dane was the Mecca
of men who knew a good thing when
they tasted it, Railroad and travel
ing men had habit Of looking for
ward To spending Sunday in Sioux
City and dropping in To see the
Dane. and, incidentally. to quaff some
Of his pleasing beverages. They new

SPONGE SEASON OPENS.

From October until July the spOnging
season i'm the Behames is in fun swing.
There are several thousand men and
boys engaged in the fishery. each
schooner carrying a crew from five t.
seven. The sponges are found all over
the banks. which vary in depth from
two To- four fathoms.
Arriving on the ground. the small
boats. of which each schooner carries
two or three. put off manned each by
two men. one Of whom SOULS while tho
other. armed with a 30-foot pole. bear

bottom through a sponge glass or
bucket with a glass bottom. LAYING
this upon the surface. ne sees every
thing below as clearly as if II water

The sponge when found are hooked
up and as soon as the schooncr's deck
is filled she sails away To a rancho"
where she deposits her evil smelling
load in a crawl or inclosure of wat
ties in shallow water, where it re-
mains for a couple of weeks, during
which the crew are fishing for fresh
cargo.
on their return all hands enter the
crawl and beat out the now rotted
flsshy parts of the sponges which
when first gathered present the APP

When the fleshy part has been thor

skeleton washed. the heap is laid on
