Great LONDON Thorouahfare.

Cheapside, the central, east-and-
west thoroughfare Of the city Of Lon
don, was originally large open com
mon in the, course Of Waiting street,
where the markets and public assem-
bles were held. Different kinds OF
ware were sold separately, and the
names were perpetuated in the streets
which were built up where the old
booths had stood. III the Middle Ages
Chepe was the great street of the re-
tail trade. It was built with the finest
houses in the city, and well supplied
with churches, the principal one being
st. Mary lie Bow, SO called from its
great vault or bow, on the south side.
On the south side also was the stone
gallery from which royalty reviewed
the tournaments which were held here.
There were two crosses in Chepe, the
principal one erected by Edward I to
mark the resting place of his queen,
Eleanor of CASTLE. The highway ran
through the more southern portion of
the marketplace, and became known
as Cheapside. Before the fire in 1860
It was twice as wide as the present
street, and was ined with houses five
stories high, each story projecting over
the one below, and with high gables.
Cheapside is SO feet above tide-water.

Penalty o. Disuse.

Nature has q way of insisting that
her gifts must be priced. "When she
finds that we really do not care to
use q thing, she usually takes it away
from u.s." says a scientific writer. The
unused muscular strength dwindles !;
the skill acquired by the fingers de-
parts with disuse; singer who sought
to save her voice by refusing to sing
except upon very rare and notable &C.
casions, found to her surprise that
through lack of exercise 1t was losing
it's power and sweetness.
This law of nature holds good In
the world of the spirit. The generosity
we put aside as too costly. the faith
fitness and goodness we are going to
mt into life some other day, when we
are not so busy, fade away. The faith
and reverence that we fondly dream
viii flower into beauty sometime, are
shrivelling into nothingness while we
wait. --

not be practicable for every farmer to
butcher and cure his own meat, but in

could do this and make good profits.
Farmers who sell country.cured meats

accomplish this one must understand

losing flesh. A reasonable amount Of
fat gives juiclness and flavor to the
meat, but large amounts Of fat are not
essential. .."
The breeding of animals plays IN
important part in producing a carcass
Of high quality. Selection, long con-
tinued care and Intelligent feeding will
produce meat of desirable quality. The
smooth, even and deeply feshed hogs
will yield the nicely marbled meat. -
The meat from very young hogs
lacks flavor and is watery. Old meat
is generally very tough. The meat of
old hogs can be improved, however, II
they are properly fattened before
slaughter. Hogs can be killed for
meat any time after eight weeks, but
the most profitable age at which to
slaughter is eight to twelve months.
Hogs intended for slaughter should
remain unfed for at least "a hours, or
better, 80 hours. Give them all the
clean, fresh water they will drink.
This will help to clear the system Of
food and will facilitate bleeding. Do
not excite or whip hog before killing.
An excited hog never makes good
carcass, and whipping causes bruised
hams, which are not At to cure. An in
jured hog may be used for food pro-
vided it is bled Immediately.
It is essential to have the proper
equipment for rapid and skillful work
at killing time. An eight-inch straight
sticking knife, q cutting knife, a II
inch steel, q hog hook, a bell-slaped
stick scraper, a gamhrel and a meat
saw. More than one of each Of these
tools may be necessary II many hogs
are to be slaughtered and handled to
best advantage. A barrel is a very
convenient receptacle in which to scald
hogs. The barrel should be placed at
an angle of about As degrees at the end
Of q table or platform OF proper
height. The table and barrel should
be securely fastened to prevent acch
dent to the workmen due to slipping.
A block and tackle will reduce labor.
All the tools and apparatus should b
IN readiness before beginning.

Pett1coats Are Narrow.

In tailored suits the narrowness OF
the skirt has rung the knell Of the pet
ticoat, but for thin frocks this most
feminine of garments necessarily holds
it's own. The petticoat must be of the
snme length as the frock under which
1t is worn, and it may be made OF
batiste, fine nainsools, moussellne de
sole. tussor or white crepe de chine.
They are forcedly narrow, for fashion
has decreed the skimpiness Of skirts.
It is, however. quite permissible to full
them slightly. especially If the dress
that covers them is slit at the hem to
make walking easier. With conserva-
tive women delicate hand embroidery
will always be the favorite trimming.
Imitation lace and fine picot tulle give
an effect of greater hufflness and are
much less costly.
