CAREFUL OF HIS OLD DRUM
Head of instrument Was Made From
the Skin of SlckIy Lamb Given
to Him by His Father.

A G. A. R. man who drummed
through the Civil war made the drum
he carried, and has it still. The head
of the drum was made from the skin
Of a sheep which was given to him
by his father when it was a sickly
lamb. He cured the skin himself,
stretching it on pegs, and while 1t was
drying, he went into the woods, cut
down a rock maple of the proper size,
and from the trunk cut the hoops, which
he carefully seasoned and adjusted.
The drumsticks were made of hickory,
polished to a satin smoothness by
means of sandpaper and oil. No an
cient violin maker ever fashioned his
beloved instrument with greater care
ard pride than the backwoods boy did
his drum.
But before he was ready to go to
the front he found that the deadly
"borer" had attacked the hoops and
honeycombed them, and his work had
to be done all over again. This time
he selected sound hickory with better
luck. and the rattle Of the homemade
drum was heard in many Of the big
battles, and is still heard when the
aged drummer boy turns out with his
few remaining comrades. ..

BertilIonized Art.

IF the Pierpont Morgan collection
are put on the MARKET" said an art
dealer of Fifth Avenue, ut is safe to
say that lot of fakes will be exposed.
There is no business so riddled
with taking as the art business, espe-
cially the oil painting branch of it..
Hence a new movement in Paris, the
worlds art center, is of interest. This
is the Bertillonizing of all future paint
ings. The artist not merely signs his
paintings, but, if he adopts this new
movement, he thumbprints them as
well. He makes an impression Of his
thumb in the wet paint below his sig
nature.
The thumb print is the only really
satisfactory Identification mark for hui
man beings, and it promises to be the
only satisfactory guarantee of paint
ings in the future A number of French
artists have recently taken to Bertil-
lonizing their work. 1t is probable
that the excellent idea will spread
from Paris all over the world"

Apropos of the opening Of the battle
Of Gettysburg, the National Tribune

sander Cutler:

Corps, Nov. Is, 1863.
To the Governor Of Pennsylvania:
In noticing in the papers today an
account of the proposition fer ma

men that fell there in July last, am
reminded that have neglected duty
which owe to one o. your regiments.
the Fifty-sixth, and its brave COM
mander, Col. J. William Hofmann. That
regiment is in the Second brigade of
this division, and was at that time
under my command. 1t was my for
tune to be in the advance on the morn
Ing Of July l. When we came upon
the ground in front of the enemy Col
onel Hofmann's regiment (being the
second in the column) got into posi-
tion a moment sooner than the others,
the enemy advancing in line Of battle
within easy musket range. The at
mosphere being little thick, l took
out my glass to examine the enemy,
being few PAGES in rear Of Colonel
Hofmann. He turned to me and in
quired, rs that the enemy?" My re-
ply was, Yes" Turning to his men
he commanded: Ready! Right
oblique! Aim-flre!" and the battle of
Gettysburg was opened. The fire was
followed by other regiments instantly.
Still, that battle On the soil Of Penn
sylvania was opened by her own sons,
and it is just that 1t should become a
matter of history. When Colonel Hof-
mann gave the command "Aim!" |
doubted whether the enemy was near
enough to have the fire effective, and
asked him If he was within range. Not
bearing my question, he fired, and l
received my reply in shower Of rebel
bullets, by which many of the colonePs
men were killed and wounded. My
own horse and those of two of my
staff were wounded at the same time.
81 desire to say to your excellency
that the Fifty-sixth Is one Of the very
best regiments in the service, and that
Colonel Hofmann is, without qualitica-
ton, one of the best officers, brave,
faithful and prompt, and most excel
lent disciplinarian. l most earnestly
hope that his faithful services may be
suitably rewarded.
hope, also, that you will cause
proper measures to be taken to give
that regiment the credit, which is their
due, of having opened that memorable
battle. Very respectfully, your obedi-
ent servant--L. Cutler, Brigadier Gen
eral.

THINGS WORTH REMEMBERING.

When cooking vegetables, nice
change from the regular methods is
to bake them. Baked turnips are
really quite an appetizing dish when
large and of good juicy variety. When
serving, peel back the outer skin from
the top and serve as baked potato.
Baked beets are change from the
usual way of boiling them. Wash
and prepare them as for boiling, then
put into a hot oven and bake until
tender. They are SO much sweeter
and better favored and may be served
then chopped with butter and lemon
Juice for seasoning, or sliced for
pickles.
Celery boiled in milk makes a pleas
ing variety for the table. Season we'll
with butter, salt and bit of red pep
per or paprika. and add white sauce
or not, just as one desires.
Onions are delicious baked, either
stuffed with sausage or bread crumbs
and nuts. Baste, while baking, with
butter and water or any good favored
soup stock.
Nasturtium seeds make a very nice
relish to serve with meats. When
the seed pods are young, pick them
and put to soak in a strong brine for
"a hours; drain we'll and cover with
good vinegar. Add little red pep
per or any condiments and spices to
taste. A little mace and ginger root
is we'll liked. This makes an excel
lent relish for boiled mutton or lamb.
When eggs are high or scarce, frost
the cakes with fondant. It may be
kept for an indefinite period and used
at any time by warming over hot wa
ter. To make the fondant, boil to-
gether two cups of sugar, a half cup
of water and tablespoonful of glu-

Of considerable interest as it passed
IN the way northward from Nebraska
a short time ago through the towns
n Nebraska, South and North Dakota
After some weeks of strenuous travel
ng in this way, Mr.. J. F. Jensen made
the overland trip from Jameson, Ne
oraska, and with his little family made
the regular customs entry at North
Portal, in the province of Saskatche-
wan. Their destination was Willow
Bunch, a district that Mr.. Jensen
had selected as one in which it was
possible for him to work out his for
tune. He located on good half Sec
ton of land, and intended putting on
1t some cattle that would fatten on
The wild prairie grass that grows so
luxuriously in that district. In addi-
tion to this his purpose was to cult
vate portion of it and raise wheat,
oats, barley or fax. In short, life
devoted to mixed farming was what
he had in view and 1t is easy to un-
derstand that he will make success
Of it, and in year or SO will attach
some more land holdings.
Although his beginning may be
small, it may safely be said that Mr..
Jensen, like thousands of others who
have begun life in western Canada on

will prosper. He will not be far from a

Extraordinary Legal Decision,

An extraordinary situation has been
created in Nice by the decision Of the
local tribunal in case brought against
one of the finest and newest hotels in
the town by a hairdresser and wig
maker carrying on business in street
at the side of the hotel The hair
dresser, says the Standard, sued the
proprietor Of the hotel on the ground
that his light had been spoilt by the
height of the building that had been
put up SO near him, that his wig-mak-
ing required strong light. and was in
reality a work of art of great value.
He merely asked that the hotel should
be pulled down. The extraordinary
thing is that judgment has been given
in the hairdresser's favor, and the ho-
tel proprietor has been ordered to take
down a building representing vast
sum Of money.

SUGGESTIONS AND HELPFUL
HINTS.

When using early potatoes, they
may be quickly p epared by using a
rough piece of sacking to rub off the
peel and with much less labor and
time than scraping.
A fine milk bottle opener is a large
horse shoe nail, placed in a convenient
place. 1t is also a good nutpick, and
has the advantage of being cheap and
easy to get.
When putting up lunch in which
sauce is used, crumb a few crackers
in the cupful of sauce. They will soak
up the surplus juice and take the
place Of pastry.
When baking cookies or drop cakes,
a whole recipe may be baked in the
oven at one time if a pair of baking
sheets are a part Of the kitchen uten-
sils. They are sheet iron made to
fit the oven, and an edge to handle
them by may be turned up and rein
forced by wire.
When there is kindling to carry. a
fine help is piece of strong carpet or
tent cloth, As by 27 inches, bound. and
with strong leather handles.
Water drained from cooked rice
makes a fine starch for laces or fine
fabrics.
A granite spoon or a granite dish
may be a great source Of danger.
Never use a granite spoon for any
thing except stirring up chicken feed.
The hens thrive on broken bits Of
glass, but our stomachs do not need
such aids to digestion.
When using granite dish, care
should be taken never to strike the
edge with spoon to dislodge the con-
tents while stirring. A wooden spoon
is the ideal one for all kinds of cook
ing, as they are less apt to injure the
surface of any enameled dish. and
are easy in the hand when doing much
stirring.
