"had jutt come off guard duty and
had sat down on the edge of his

Badly Burned.
Mrs. Fredrick Klomus mot with a
serious and painful accident last
Friday noon, while boiling potatoes
for dinner. She put her potatoes in
a pail to boil and the cover went
down in the pail making it air tight.
When Mrs. Klomus thought the po
tatoes were thoroughly cooked she
went to remove the cover, finding it
«o light that it was necessary for
lier to take a knife to pry it off. As
•die did this the pail exploded, burn
ing Mrs. Inn us badly about the
'ace nnd head. It was reported first
that her eyesight was destroyed, but
a doctor was immediately called and
it was found that her sight was not
injured, but her face was badly
homed, the steam making it more
painful. Her friends hope this will
not prove serious.

The Bacon Bog.
Much is now being said about
breeding hogs of the bacon type in
the corn belt. An interesting arti
cle on this question appears in the
Homestead of the 19th inst from
the pen of J. J. Ferguson, superin
tendent of the stock food depart
ment of Swift & Co. Mr. Fergu
son has grown bacon hogs in Can
ada, followed the packing business
for several years and was a judge of
bacon typo hogs at the World's Fair
it St. Louis, hence his opinion that,
owing to tho scarcity of feeds which
produce lean meat, after all, the
lard hog is most profitable for the
corn belt farmer is interesting and
entitled to consideration. Mr. Fer
guson states his reasons clearly and
every farmer in this section should
rend and study what ha says, not
omitting his advice that a Yorkshire
ind Tain worth cross on the average
corn belt hog is desirable. The
Homestead contains so- many such
irticleB that we wish every farmer
in Delaware county was a sub
scriber. We take subscriptions for
this valuable farm journal at the
office of the Manchester Democrat.

Fathers and Sana.
Observers arc struck with the cama

ty which obtains between fathers and
their schoolboy sons, so that their mu

prove a safeguard against many evils
In the future. This Is essentially a
modern development and stands to the
credit of the fathers of the present
day.—London Spectator.

AFFECTION IN JAPAN.
It Is Deep And Uatfng, but, aa
Rule, Kot Outspoken.
Public demonstration of affeetlon Is
most repugnant to the good taste of
the Japanese, and it Is the absence of
this which is so generally mistaken
(or a lack of genuine feeling. I recall
ene man who was so devoted to hla
mother (though I doubt whether he
could ever have been said to have
"talked about" her) that when she died,
while he wns abroad, hla depression
was so profound that my husband
watched him with anxiety lest he
should commit suicide. The stoical
training may render more unsympa
thetic a coarse nature, but repression
to the refined soul brings an exquisite
capacity for pain scarcely conceivable
by those who are free to give utter
ance to every emotion.
Another man said to me, "I rarely
speak of my mother, for a foreigner
does not understand that a Japanese
mother may be Just as dear to her son
aa his to blm and by the Japanese It
Is not expected that one should utter
one's deepest feeling." That same
son fainted with grief when his moth
er died nnd when consciousness re
turned rose to make light of a "little
dlnlness," without reference to Its
cause. To this day. whenever he goes
from home, he cnrrlcs with him his
mother's letters, iqounted on a beauti
ful roll of Ivory and brocade, and on
the anniversary of her pnssing beyond
his mortal ken quietly devotes a por
tion of the day to meditation and spe
cial thought of her. Even to his wife,
despite the closest bond of love, he
says not, "This is tho dny of my moth
er's death."—Outlook.
CRUSTY CARLYLE
An Anecdote Which Illniitrates Hln
DlKlffrccnlile Dljipontdon.
Carlyle suffered from dyspepsia and
disappointment. lie was therefore nei
ther ovcrsyinpnthetie in intercourse
with his friends nor fair In his esti
mates of other writers.
Though lie personally liked Tenny
son, he spoko with Impatience of his
"cobbling his odes," dismissed Jane
Austen's novels as "dish, washings,"
Hallam, the historian, as "dry as dust"
and Goldsmith as an "Irish black
guard."
Even the writers of editorials in the
press were Baluted with this hard say
ing: "What are these fellows doing?

Men's Overcoats and Ulsters, worth from $10 to $12,

ftiR
They only serve te cancel one anoth
er." A characteristic anecdote Ulna
trates Ills cruel disposition, which pre
voked blm to InSlct pain even en a
friend.
An artist who frequented Carlyle'e
house pnlnted a plctnre of him In hla
dressing gown smoking a pipe by the
fireside and Mrs. Oarlyle tn an arm
chair sitting opposite him. The ple
tnre was hung at one of the Royal
academy's exhibitions nnd. though not
a striking work of art, was purchases
by Ijord Asliburton, Cariyle's friend,
tor fSOO.
The delighted artist hurried oft te
the Carlyles. expecting congratulations
on tlie sale and some manifestation of
pleasure on their part at having such
a value set on a plctnre of themselves
and their domestic interior. He deliv
ered his glad tidings, but all the re
sponse he received from Carlyle was:
"Well, In my opinion, £500 was Just
£405 too much."
When to Exercise.
When to exercise Is an Important
consideration. If the morning only Is
available the exercise should be ngkt.
Particularly is this the ease If ene to
engaged tn any work. The snpply ef
energy must net be drawn frem at the
beginning ef the day. The afternoon
la perhaps the best time for exercise,
when one has gained strength frem
the absorption of the morning and
noon meals. Thoee who exercise vigor
ously at night should eat a midday
dinner. Exercise should always pre
cede bathtng and not, as a rule, follow
It In this respect the anclrat Greeks
showed great wisdom. Exercise and
bathing they called the two pillars of
strength. Exercise was Hereules and
bathing Apollo. Both were regarded
with eqnal Importance, and neither
was complete without the other.
No Longer on the Map.
"What makes you so late?" asked
Tim's father, who In the boy's ab
sence had had to see to the evening
chores himself.
"Teacher kept me In." ri's?"
"What for?"
'Cause I couldn't find Moseow' on
the map."
"Couldn't find Moseow? And I'd
like to know who could, then! Why,
I remember hearing tell of Moseow be
ing burned when I was a boy! It's an
outrage to put such nonsensical ques-'
tlons to children what's there to learn
eomethlng useful. I'll look Into that
and let yer teacher know I ain't been
elected on the school board for noth-.
Ing!"—London Globe.

"Jimmy," nald the teacher after read
Ing the youngster's "note from his fa*
ther" exensing Jimmy's absence from
school the day before, "it seems to me
your father's writing Is very much

Apple Adds,
The acids of the apple are of singu
lar nse for men of sedentary habita,
whose livers are sluggish In aettoq,
those acids serving to eliminate from
the body noxious matters which if re
tained would make the brain heavy
and dull or bring about jaundice or
skin eruptions nnd other allied trou
bles. Some such experience must have
led to the custom of taking apple
sauce with roast pork, rich goose and
other like! dishes. The malic add of
ripe npples, either raw or cooked, win
neutralise any excess of ehalky mat
ter engendered by eating too muck
meat. It is also the fact that sueli
frnlts as the apple, the pear and the
plum, when taken ripe and without
sugar, diminish acidity in the stomach
rather than provoke It. Their vege
table sauces and juices are converted
Into alkaline carbonates by the chem
ical action of the stomaeh juices, which
tend to counteract acidity.
JUonfceyi In Captivity.
"To see monkeys kept In a cage is to
me a pitiful and saddening exhibition,"
says an English writer. The ltttle
caricatures ef humanity in my pos
session are let out of their houses tn
the morning and allowed to play anS
gambol about the grounds during the
dayttms to their hearts' content The**
who hsve seen monkeys only tn cage*
can form but a faint Idea of the l«r
ousness of the happy little creatures a*
they bound from tree to tree tn the
enjoyment of their freedom. At even
ing time they all return to their house
without giving any trouble.
"Monkeys, like most wild animals,
are very shy before strangers, and tf a
visitor happens to arrive who Is un
known to them they keep perfectly stin
and hide themselves so well among the
foliage that the stranger could not
realise that he wns being watched by
several pairs of the sharpest little eyse
