Narrow Escape.
Mrs. Ellen Crosby bad a very narrow
escape from being burled alive in Craw
ford county. She had been pronounced
dead and prepiarations for the burial
were being made. While this was in
progress her daughter, 19 years old,
worn out by exhaustion, lay down to
rest, but her eyes had scarcely closed
before she sprang up and peremptorily
insisted that her mother's body be re
turned to the bed. She remarked that

The undertaker complied with the

tj'Z Hanna r.nd Hypocrisy. §gf§
The republican party has managed to
do an extensive DUBiness with hypocrisy
as its capital. Why, therefore, should
not Senator Hanna expect to turn the
same quality to his own account?
011,•
If anybody had Intimated five years
ago that Mr. Hanna could have assum
ed tbe role of a friend of labor without
setting the whole republic into a guf
faw he would have been deemed tbe
victim of a violent form of insanity.
Yet we find the Ohio senator taking
that part every week nowadays and" ex
citing no particular surprise on the
part of anybody.
For twenty years the republican par
ty baB had no motive save the enrich
ment of the few at the expense of the
many.
It has had no principle but plunder.
It has stood for nothing but injustice,
privilege and selfishness. At its bead,
making its platforms, nominating its
candidates and reaping the rewards of
its iniquities has Btood Mr. Hanna, the
personifications of greed and inequality.
Since the party itself
haB
managed
while enriching the few to secure popu
lar approval almost beyond precedent
why should not the moBt offensive of
its leaders set up aB a friend of tbe
workingman? If the republican or
ganization, which has been wholly sub
verted to the interests of the few, can
maintain the pretense that it seeks tbe
welfare of all, why should not its chief
corruptionist play with success the role
of a philanthropist
The Cleveland worklngmen who ap
plaud Hanna as a friend of labor are a
disgrace to American citizenship.—Chi
cago Chronicle.
Laboring Men in Congress.
The entrance into politics of the
United Mine-Workers in backing tbe
campaigns of Congressional aspirants
in Iowa and Indiana is by no meanB an
innovation. Indeed, it 1B remarkable
that no man sitB in our Congress today
as the direct representative of laboring
men.
Monarchic England Is in this respect
Of course afar greater proportion of
our Congressmen than of British Par
liamentarians have In the past worked
with their hands for day wages.

Steers as Race Steers.
While everybody is crying about the
Bcarcity of cattle and tbe high price of
meat, anew danger threatens ihe meat
supply. Heretofore it has always been
considered that the steer was constant
ly marching towards tbe slaughter
house and the meat market but now a
new and novel us .• appears to be open
ing up to th$ steer. A man in Indiana
has one which he has trained to pace at
the rate of a mile in 2:21. This fleet
footed bovine went an eighth of ~a mile
in 18 seconds. The steer iB a yearling
and is considered a wonder.
If this steer racing should become
general our fairs will have the 2:20,2:30
and maybe will get down to the 2:10
clasB, and then there would be the Short
horn, Hereford, Angus and Galloway
classes and the free-for-all. Look out
for the coming racing steer.—Farmers'
Tribune.
Milking the Cow.
The farm hand who knows how to
milk properly is more valuable to tbe
careful dairyman than any other help.
To milk a cow requires time and pa
tience. The milk should be drawn BIOW
ly and steadily. Some cows have very
tender teats, and if you want a well
disposed cow, be gentle in your treat
ment toward her. A good cow is natu
rally impatient and does not like rough
handling.
With constant irritation any cow will
fail in quantity of milk.
As the udder becomes filled with milk
she is anxious to be relieved of its con
tents and will seldom offer resistance
without a cause.
When a patient cow becomes frac
tious we can always trace it to tbe milk
er. Make a note of this.
We should not allow them to stand a
longjime waiting to be milked.
Wnen cSws'givb S'lStge qMStyj.-Or
milk it is very painful when tbe udder
hats filled to tbe utmost, therefore caus
ing them to become very nervous and
reBtleBS.
To delay milking at the proper time
will do more to cause a cow to go dry
before her period than anything else.
She should also be milked to the last
drop, if possible, for the last portion of
milk is the richest.
Random Notes.
Whitewash will cover a multiude of
dirt and infection. It iB.a great disin
fectant. It purifies, cleanses and makes
the quarters inviting and should be used
without stint.
Milk contains in easily digested form
the four kinds of nutrients required by
tbe body namely, protein, fats, carbo
hydrates and mineral water. It is one
of the cheapest foods, too.
Even the finest of strainers fail to re
move dirt from milk BB thoroughly aB
it 1B done by a separator and those
dairymen who furnish the purest and
most uniform milk always secure tbe
beBt trade.
Many farmers do not question wheth
er they are keeping profitable cows be
cause they "only milk three or four to
supply tbe family." On many farms
half the cows do not pay their board.
Is it true of your cons, reader?
Careful investigation in several states
places the cost of keeping tbe average
farm cow at-$30 to $35. In this paper
332 is used aB an average cost. The re
turns from a dairy herd vary much ac
cording to tbe skill of the dairyman.
One weakness of human nature is the
fact that many men will allow their
neighbor's way of doing things to lead
them to do the same way when tbey
know it is not tbe best way and often
the means of bringing direct IOBB to
themselves. In no branch of farming IB
this weakness shown more than in
dairying.
Is there any way of getting dissolved
dirt out of milk No strainer we have
ever seen will do it. The only thing left
to do then is to keep tbe dirt from get
ting into the milk. Tbe only way to
have clean milk is to be cleanly about
tbe milking. Insoluble matter may be
very different. Joseph Arch, the farm
labbrer Burt and Abrahams,the miners strained out, but that which has once

dairy type, compared with the beef type,
produced on the average per cow 131
pounds more butter and 2,274 poundB

An Arizona bulletin reports eight
herds of cows that averaged less than
$25 worth of milk per cow per year,
while in other herds were cows that pro
duced $00 to $70 worth per yeBr, and
in two herds each numbering over forty
cows, the average was $19 per cow per
year. What do your cows average, and
what do they pay for the feed consum
ed? Feed is too high to bo giving it to
cows that cannot pay for it.

Its name. But there Is probably justice
In the complaint that too many of our
legislators are lawyers by present pro

It will pay to stick to the cow and not
get excited over the price of beef, It
doesn't cost much more to produce a
pound of butter than a pound of beef,

the other. It coBts money to change

A GIRL'S CAREER.
Some of the most intellectual people
we have known have been among the
most disagreeable. A woman whose
nature is aggressive, who parades her
knowledge before those of inferior edu
cation, is an object to be dreaded. Mere
learning in a woman is never attrac
tive. It is, on the contrary, offensive
unless coupled with feminine graces.
School learning should sink into tho
character and deportment and only ex
hibit itself as the perfume of a tlower
is exhibited—in a subtle, nameless and
unobtrusive manner.
A woman's intellectual acquirements
should simply make her conversation
gracious and agreeable. Mathematics
should render her mind clear and her
judgments true. Ller geographical
studies should teach her that the world
Is too small for falseness to lind a hid
ing place, and history should impress
her that life is too short for unworthy
ambitions.' The time between the
schoolroom and the altar should not bo
a mere harvest time of pleasure, but
a sowing time for all the seeds of kind
ness and self sacrilice for others and
of unselfishness and benevolence which
al'^ne can make her a happy wife and
mother.—New York Weekly.
Critical Inspection Xecemtary.
Naturally the maid upon pleasure
bent desires to look her best on all oc
casions. It is the small niceties of
toilet which make the woman, and
sometimes she errs most lamentably
over these same little things. Neat
ness, cleanliness and order are the
foundation stones of good dressing.
This does not presuppose primness or
spectacled severity, for even a "fluffy"
girl can be orderly and neat.
It seems almost unnecessary to tell a
nice girl what she should do by way
of keeping herself personally attrac
tive, and yet there are many really
nice girls who allow themselves to
drift into careless habits which
would readily perceive and COUJJ^QJ^ Ju

This dainty rack should be hung up

each end of the rolling pin.
DreNKltitr For Photograph.
A woman whese rich coloring is her
greatest beauty should be represented
in tones subservient to her vivid llosh
tints.
A girl with red gold hair is costumed
perhaps in dull brown tints, which do
iiot detract from the brilliancy of her
tresses. Black also is a good costume
for her. In fact, nearly every woman
looks well in black. White accentu
ates defects and is becoming only to
youthful faces.
A .middle aged woman with silvery
gray hair might be represented in a
gown of gray satin, perhaps, or of
black velvet, with a bit of white lace
somewhere about it. Dignity should
be found in every line of her figure.
Tl^ht Gloveu.
Tight gloves jire worse than tight
shoes. The shoes may give a dainty
look to the foot In spite of the tortures
endured, nut light gloves make the
hands fat and red and ugly. The flesh
bulges out and wrinkles form.
Gloves should be worn so easily fit
ting that rings may remain under
them. The red, creased look of the
palm when gloves are too tight is
abominable. The maiden who-wears
the glove is the only one who is de
luded into the belief that her hand
looks well in it.

nnd Clever Method of Changing
Water Into Wine.
Take two drinking goblets of equal
size, which wo will call A and B, and
plunge them into a pail of water, hold
ing one upright, the other upside down.
As soon as both are completely full of
water and not a bubble of air remains
in them put thorn together, brim to
brim now, with their axes vertical, A
below (the right way up) and above
(upside down), remove them carefully
from the water. Having allowed them
first to drip the outside moisture on a
plate and wiping them dry, you will
find remains full of liquid even if
you displace the brim the least bit, so
as to leave visible a little thread of
water, whose function we shall pres
ently perceive.
-On the foot of now place a smaller
glass (C) full of re I wine, and you are
now ready to make the wine in pass
into the glass without a drop of it
entering A.
The operation, wo shall see, is dou
ble first, it is necessary to get the
wine out of the small glass, sec-

Thus tho wine will geutly creep
toward the brims of tbe two larger
glasses and there, strange to say, In
stead of continuing Its descent under
the action of gravity, we shall see it
creeping upward and sideways be

the wine has left glass and gone to
the top of glass B, replacing an equal
quantity of water which has been
forced out and dripped on to the plate.

King of Rats.
Rats proclaim their monarch on ac
count of his gray hairs—he is always
an ancient and wise headed warrior.
He fights his way to the front, but it is
uot only that that gives him the
throne—it is his cunning. The rat
tribe celebrates his coronation in an
almost human way. The whole tribe
of the house or granary gathers, and
the big monarch steps out aud sniffs
at the air. lie grates his teeth wick
edly, daring any rival to come and try
his luck, and If noue offers he is
thenceforth given the lead in all mat
ters. If a house is unsafe or a ship
unfit for sea, the king it is who leads
tho tribe away lu time, and his sub
jects never molest him when he helps
himself to the pick of the food or the
best nesting place, and his family en
joys the same distinction.

Paper bags coiue very handy often,
and yet how often it is impossible to
find one when most wanted. Drive
three nails about eight inches apart in
a row at a convenient height from the
lloor. File the heads off, so the bags
will easily slip on and off. When you
empty a bag, put it on one of these
nails, keeping different sizes on differ

dark.

pint of milk, and stir this into the dry
mixture. Beat well for a moment, pour
into two shallow, buttered pans and
bake in a quick oven.
