APPLE JELLIES.
Extracts From I'pr licnct nt the Main
Pomolilcnl Society.
Comparatively few people are aware
of the great value of apples for Jelly
making, and this is more especially
true of large raisers of apples.
Tne greatest factor that has brought
out the Jelly making qualities of apples
has teen the Maine State FomoloKlcal
Society, which has so generally offered
from year to year liberal premiums for
tb beat collection of apple Jellies made
from llslinct and named varieties of
nlea. u has aroused an Interest la
the subject and excited Inquiries which
have reached groat practical value. At
the State Fair last September the ex
hibition of apple Jellies was so exten
sive and of such a high standard that
It was of great Interest to the visitors.
Few, If any, varieties of apples aro
unsuitable for Jelly, the possible ex
ceptions being sweet apples, yet I
tare been successful In obtaining a
vry good Jelly from Tolman Sweets,
and the sweet Baldwin, but as a rule
they are not adapted to Jelly making.
The variety In color that may be pro
duced ranges from the almost white
Jelly of the Yellow Transparent apple,
to the deep crimson of the Red Astra
Chan ,and the flavor from the delicate
flavor of the Porter to the sharp acid
of the Quince apple.
To etate a definite rule by which to
make apple Jellies would be difficult
and perhaps Impossible.
It does not require the first grade of
Wles, the second quality of fruit being
Just as good, but It Is very necessary
that the apple has attained Its full
irrowth, Is of good color, and as near
ripe as possible.
A general rule Is as follows: Quar
ter the apples, using peeling and all, as
the peel Is In a great measure respon
sible for the color of the Jelly. Place
the apples in a large porcelain kettle,
using to every four quarts of apples,
two quarts of water for fall apples,
and three quarts of water to four
Quarts of apples for winter fruit. Place
the kettle upon the stove and allow the
apples to cook until they become Just
oft, but be careful that they do not
cook until mealy, pour into large flan
nel bag and allow the Juice to drip
ttrough into a dish; It may be well to
squeeze the pulp a very little to get
the full richness of the apple, being
careful not to get any of the pulp into
the Juice, as it spoils the clearness of
the-Jelly. Now place the Juice in the
kettle, having it spread over as large
a surface as possible, as it bolls down
much more quickly; let it boil rapidly
for ten minutes, all the time skimming
off whatever scum arises to the top.
While the Juice is boiling the first
time, have the sugar in the oven heat
ing, allowing one pound of sugar to a
quart of Juice. When the Juice has
boiled for ten minutes, stir in the sugar
rapidly and allow It to all dissolve,
then strain it again to take out what
ever impurities there may be in the
sugar. Now allow the Juice to boil in
heavy drops from the spoon; this will
require, on an average, about ten min
utes. Now the Jelly is ready to pour
into tumblers. Allow It to cool until
thoroughly hard, and place a piece of
wax paper over the top; be sure the
covers to your tumblers fit tight, thea
place in a cool, dry place.
.1 la the making of all these Jellies one
must necessarily depend some upon
Judgment, for some apples will Jelly
tuicker than others, some will require
a little more sugar, and some a little
more water for boiling. It makes a
great difference In the time of year
when the apple la used; the nearer to
the time when the apple is taken from
the tree the better.
After trying over forty different va
rieties, the best returns came from the
Porter, Astraohan, Yellow Transpar
2Bt, King Tompkins. Duchess of Olden
burg, Billhamhin and Alexander for
the fall apples, and the Bellflower, Ben
Davis, Greening, and Baldwins for win
ter apples.
The Porter and Bellflower stand at
the head, the Porter being replaced in
the winter1 by the Bellflower, and that
much abused apple, the Ben Davis, is
one of the very beet apples for Jelly.
Crimson Clover.
Crimson clover was Introduced In
this country several years ago by the
late Dr. Harzadine, a florist of Dela
ware; being a great lover of flowers
he was attracted to this plant by its
beauty. The rich deep green foliage
which may be seen all through tbe
winter when not entirely covered with
mow, grows deeped and brighter as
spring advances, until early in May
when the flowers appear and the Hold
changes from a deep green to a brll-
llant crimson, making a sight to be
hold and to remember. At first the
value as a forage plant was not under
stood, and as a soil restorer was un
known. Every one admired lta beauty
and numerous plots were grown for or
namental purposes, but years elapsed
before farmers awoke to Its value as a
regular rotation crop. Crimson Clover
la now successfully grown in almost ev
ery 8tate In the union. It will yield
two to three tons of hay to the acre;
or eight to ten bushels of seed; it
makes a good fall and winter pasture,
and 1b alBo a good honey plant, the
honey being of light color and excellent
flavor. Crimson Clover as a fertilizer
has no equal; it sends its deep-feeding
roots far into the subsoil to gather and
bring to the surface elements of fer
Crlmson Clover is an annual and must
tlllty that would bo otherwise lost.
It should be sown in its proper season,
this extends from the first of July until
the last of September. About one peck
of seed is required to sow an acre.

Milk fur Fowls.
Those who have abundant milk for
use in the poultry yard are favored,
Indeed. It Is moat excellent for both
chicks and fowls, and may supply in
large measure the pluco of meat. The
gre ut point to be observed is, that it is
not to be allowed to become sour and
111-sir.elllng. Sweet, it may be used
either as a drink or for mixing with
soft feed. Sour, it is better curded by
heat, when both the thick and the thin
portions are perfectly safe to use. But
U Is well, when using much of the curd
ta be sure that the fowls receive, also,
some food of a slightly laxative na
ture. Of these, bran Is a familiar ex

THE OCEAN'S BOTTOM.
Ingenious Invention of an Italian Known
as A Diving Cabin.
We have all read of visiting the bot
tom of the sea by means of a diving
bell, but it has been left to an Italian
resident of Franco to Invent a cabin
tor the same purpose. The inventor's
name Is M. Plnttl del Pozzo. He calls
bis apparatus a submarine worker ,and
it seems a remarkable affair of Its kind.
It has Just bern successfully tried, the
bed of the Seine belug used as the field
of operations.
It consists of an enormous bowl or
globe, steel plated and capable of re
sisting the strongest pressure. It la
nine feet nine inches in diameter,
weighs ten tons and Is moved by three
screws and a helm worked by electric
ity. In the apparatus are two boxes,
or tanks, filled with ballast, which,
when turned over, enable the invention
to rise from the bottom to the sur
face of tho water. There are also coni
cal tubes, furnished with powerful
lenses, which permit the exterior ob
jects and ground to be clearly seen.
Entrance is affected by a manhole,
and the apparatus is kept in communi
cation with a boat or with the shore
by means of a cable. The cabin is
reached by a ludder and is lighted by
pkctriclty. From this cabin every
thing outside the machine, such as
Bhovels, picks and grappling Irons, can
be manipulated by means of levers or
hand-spikes.
The cabin contained sufficient air for
the four person who went down in it
recently to last them forty-eight hours.
The Inventor states that half a dozen
people could comfortably remain in the
interior and breathe without fear of
rarefectlon of the air for the space of
half a day. M. Pozzo also affirms that
there Is no danger likely to be incur
red by his big apparatus. Persons in
the interior can communicate with the
boat or the land by telephone, and
even if the solid suspending cable were
to give away, the ballast could be over
turned by touching a lever, and the
globe would ascend to the top of the
water.
The descent to the Seine's bed was
effected under the railway bridge at
Cholsyle-Roi, outside the fortifications,
and everything went off successfully.
The submarine worker Is to be tested
In deep sea depths at Havre and Brest,
Great things in fact are expected from
the machine by its inventor, who has
certainly gone a considerably way to
ward making realities of some of the
efTects of the Imagination of that dis
tinguished story-splnnor and fllctionlst
of the marvelous Jule Verne.
Who knows what the submarine
worker is destined to accomplish? It
may discover the exact whereabouts of
the Ill-fated Drummond Castle, and of
other big wrecks. It will be of im
mense use in the pearl, coral and
sponge fisheries, and In laying or re
pairing cables. Al 1th Is will depend
however, on the sea tests. For the
present it is sufficient to know it has
been successfully tried in Paris.
If Impracticable at sea it will provide
another amusement and recreation for
visitors and residents of Paris, who,
when they have exhausted the curi
osities of the catacombs and been in
boats through the big drains, can then
descend comfortably into the bed of the
Seine and inspect tbe homes of the
gudegon, for which Parisian Waltons
so energetically fish throughout sever
al months In the year.
Many persons may be inclined to re
gard this as a Joke of some clever in
ventor, but it is nothing of the sort.
It is, in fact, say the French scientists,
one of the most clever ideas of the year
and there is no reason to doubt its en
tire practicability. If It reaches in
France the measure of success which
It is believed will attend it, the invent
or, M. Pozzo, declares he will himself
come to the United States with it, and
demonstrate in New York harbor the
truthfulness of his claims. Philadel

Lucky Stones.
A pushing young business man who
nas succeeded in forming a partnership
in which his experience and knowledge
are put in at the same value as the
other fellow's money, finds an unex
pected amount of amusement thrown
in with the arrangement. "That part
ner of mine," he says, "keeps me in a
good humor, no matter how hot tbe
weather or how dull business may be.
So far as an outsider could Judge of
him be simply hangs about the place,
kicks the office boy occasionally as an
evidence of authority, puts his feet on
bis desk and smokes good cigars. But
when I And him whittling on a piece
of pine or trying to draw pictures on tin
back of a blotter, I know that he is
evolving some scheme that is liable
to keep our profits up to the safety
mark.
" 'Jim,' ho said the other morning
while he was making the shavings fly
like a planing mill, 'I made a funny
sort of sale this mornlu'. When Johnnie
an' me were fish in', he gathered up
about a peck of the smooth white peb
bles, some of them streaked with red.
The kid forgot to take them homo end
left them In tbut bag there at the end
f the cigar case. When a flashy lookln'
chaD comes In his morntn' to get a
smoke, he asks me what the pebbles
was. It Just popped in my way to tell
b!m that they were lucky stones. Not
to be warn as charms, but curried in
the pocket, not to bo seen or handled
by any one else.' Ho took three at
25 cents apiece, for I told him the duty
was going to be Increased and tbe price
would be doubled. Ho's a horse race
fellow, and It he happens to win to
Jay look out for a run.'
"Sure enough, they came thick and
fast men, boys and women, for it
doesn't take such a thing long to get
noised about. I didn't quite approve,
but my partner took charge of the
lucky stone department aud would per
mit no Interference.- He has cleared
up over 1200 and the run Is still on.
He tells me be has a better thing than
iat hatching."

THE POWDER HABIT.
An Inlet-mtlng Story nf How n
rowder
I'ufT Kept ) I.aily Cool.
She boarded an Indiana avenue car
and carefully selected a front seat. The
heat was almost unbearable, yet she
eerned cool and comfortable. Her com
panion, whose skin was somewhat
more swarthy, looked offensively but.
She cast furtive side glances at her
friend and drew mental comparisons.
It was not that they were dressed dif
ferentlyboth wore shirt waists, light
skirts and sailor hats. Finally, exas
perated beyond endurance, unable to
solve the myBtery, she put the ques
tion frankly: "How is It that you
manage to keep cool when other peo
ple look as though they were made of
soft soap?"
The other, disposed to be good na
tured and unable to withstand so iu
genuous an appeal, let her into the se
cret: '
"Why, it's very simple," oho said,
"and If you promise not to tell my
dearest foil I'll let you know. You
see, this purse I have isn't' a purso at
all."
"This purse you have isn't a purse
at all?" the hot girl repeated, more
uystlfieil than ever.
"See here, goosie" then they crowd
ed so close together that it was hard to
get a'gllmpse between their shoulders
at a tiny case made in the form of an
ordinary leather purse, lined on both
ildes with looking glass. In the centre
a us an oil-silk pouch, inclosing a good
ly bit of powder and a little fluffy
iwan's down puff with a loop of baby
ribbon for a handle. A small tortoise
ihell comb completed the outfit.
"Now, you know." she went on, "why
I always take the front seat never
anybody facing me here then I "
The rest was done In pantomine. With
tho purse open at the proper angle to
:atch the charming reflection, she be
gan, softly touching the puff to her
forehead, nose and chin. The other
flrl followed the example with wonder
ful success. All the greasy look dls
jppeared from her face, leaving her
skin as smooth and cool looking as
.ould be desired. With a glance of sat
sfaction at herself and one of profound
idmlratlon at her friend, she said, un
iffectedly: "My dear girl, thanks. You certainly
ire a genius." Then she sat back and
wondered whether the dear girl would
sver have disclosed the secret if she
aad not at that moment been some
.hat in need of the puff herself.
Two-thirds of the women in Chicago
lave the powder habit, aud their skins,
iccuatomed to the refreshing puff, re
fuse to look respectable without it.

Demlly High Collars.
High collars are still in style, but
'ew people realize that the wearing of
horn is fraught with much danger. It
8 essential for general health to leave
;he neck free. Dr. Pirtes of Cairo re
cently reported a case of a gentleman
ho was almost strangled by a high
itandlng collar. It was a difficult
natter to restore him to consciousness
ind life. This is not the only case of
he kind. Not long ago a wealthy
ftencn gentleman was found dead In
;he Compartment of a railroad car on
;he arrival of the train at Paris from
Vice. The inquest and the autopsy
evealed that the traveler had not met
vlth foul play but had been strangled
oy a standing collar. At a point very
lear the Adam's apple there Is a spot
vhlch It 1b very dangerous to compress.
When this is done respiration stops
mddenly and asphyxiation will ensue
i the pressure is long enough. A col
ar which Is taeomtortable when the
rearer Is standing will be more so
when he eitg down, and should he fall
isleop in a sitting position it Is likely
to press upon the very point it will do
;he most harm. It is possible that un
sonsclousness will set in during sleep
!rom the effect of this pressure, and
:he fatal termination in the case Just
mentioned proves the danger of wear
ng high collars. Philadelphia Record.

Trying to Organize tbe 10,000.
United Mine Workers Hot After Anthracite
Men.
A vigorous attempt is being made
by the national officials of the United
Mine Workers of America to organize
the anthracite miners of Eastern
Pennsylvanii during the present gen
eral uprising in that field. National
Secretary Pearce stated Friday night
that every effort will be strained to
push this organization. Locals have
already been formed, five at McAdoo,
one at Beaver Meadow, three at Kel
yars and one at Charleroi, and sup
plies were forwarded to those places
Friday. It is hoped to organize the
miners of Coxe Brothers and the
Lehigh Valley Company.
Now that the entire region is in
great disorder, the miners' officials
believe that the opportunity of a life
time is at hand, and they will grasp
it, notwithstanding the depleted con
dition of the treasury as a result of
the sott coal strike just settled. Mr.
Pearce is confident that 10,000 hard
coal miners will thus be brought in.
MAY BRING OUT 20,000 OTHERS.
The present condition among the
miners of the 'Vyoming region is one
ot unrest, and intlamatory utterances
may make trouble. There are 20,000
miners and laborers in the Wilkes
barre and adjacent workings, and a
strike among them would be moe
serious than that at Ilazleton.
About 100 driver boys struck at
Nanticoke Friday afternoon at the

pany. The difficulty was about the
