■AN OLD PAINTER'S IDEAS." The autumn season is coming mor* J and more to be recognized as a most ! suitable time for housepainting. There | Is no frost deep in the wood to make trouble for even the best job of paint- Ing, and the general seasoning of the eummer has put the wood into good condition in every way. The weather, moreover, is more likely to ba settled for the necessary length of tlsn»» t« allow all the coats to thoroughly dry, • very important precaution. An 014 end successful painter said to the writer the other day:"House owners would get more for their money If they would allow their painters to take tnoro time, especially between coats. Instead of allowing barely time for the surface to get dry enough not to be •tacky,' several days (weeks would not be too much) should be allowed so that the coat might set through and through. It is inconvenient, of course, but, if one would suffer this slight inconvenience, it would add two or three years to the life of the paint." All this is assuming, of course, that the paint used is the very best to bo had. The purest of white lead and the purest of linseed oil unmixed with any cheaper of the cheap mixtures, often known as "White Lead," and oil which has been doctored with fish oil, benzine, corn oil or other of the adulterants known to the trade are used, all the precautions of the skilled painter are useless to prevent the cracking and peeling which make houses unsightly In a year or so and ; therefore, make painting bills too fra quent and costly.

World's Cotton Consumption. The consumption of cotton from 1893 to 1898 averaged only 9,000,000 bales annually in the whole world, but from 1898 to 1903 the average was 10.- 684,146 bales annually, and the aver ago price was three cents per pound greater than for the previous period. If the consumption increases at the same ratio during the next flvo year period the average will be nearly 13,- 000,000 bales annually, and the prices will be much higher than in the pre vious period. This indicates a pros perous future for the cotton producer and manufacturer, as well as for the export trade. NOTRE DAME ALWAYS CHARMS Visitors Never Tire of Beauty of Famous Cathedral. Often as I have seen Notre Dame, the marvel of it never grows less. I goto Paris with no thought or time for it, busy about many other things j and then, on my way over one of the bridges across the river, perhaps, I see it again on its island, the beauti ful towers high above the high roofs of houses and palaces, and the view, now so familiar, strikes me afresh ■with all the wonder of my first impres sion. The wonder only seems greater If I turn, as I am always tempted to, and walk down the quays on the left bank, the towers before me and with every step coming more and more completely together, by the Pont Neuf, to the island, and at last to the great square where Notre Dame fronts me in its superb calm. —Elizabeth Robins Pennoll, in The Century. AN OLD TIMER. Has Had Experiences. A woman who haa used Postum Food Coffee since it came upon the market S years ago knows from ex perience the necessity of using Pos tum in place of coffee if one values health and a steady brain. She says: "At the time Postum was first put on the market I was suffer ing from nervous dyspepsia and my physician had repeatedly told me not to use tea or coffee. Finally I de cided to take his advice and try Postum, and got a cample and had it carefully prepared, finding It deli cious to the taste. So I continued its use and very soon its beneficial ef fects convinced me of Its value, for I got well of my nervousness and dys pepsia. "My husband had been drinking cof fee all his life until it had affected his nerves terribly. I persuaded him to shift to Postum and it was easy to get him to make the change for the Postum is delicious. It certainly worked wonders for him. "We soon learned that Postum does not exhilarate or depress and does not stimulate, but steadily and honestly strengthens the nerves and the stom ach. To make a long story short our entire family have now used Postuin for eight years with completely sat isfying results, as shown in our line condition of health and we have no ticed a rather unexpected Improve ment in brain and nerve power."

By Experiments In Cross-Breeding Domestic Cattle and Buffalo He j Has Propagated a New Animal. New York.- When President Roose- j volt made his last visit to the Yel- ] lowstone National park and wrapped himself in one of the new crossbred | buffaln robes—as soft as silk and as large as a parlor rug—he expressed ! delight and astonishment. Years be fore C. T. (Buffalo) Jones, game war- j den of the Yellowstone park, began his experiments in crossing buffalo with domestic breed of cattle, and Mr. Roosevelt said if he could succeed in crossing that old-fashioned buffalo j robe he would accomplish wonders. j So when the president recently saw / C. T. "BUFFALO" JONES. (Game Warden of Yellowstone Park, Who Has Bred a New Animal.) the immense silky robes, dark, curly and resplendent, like Russian sable, he told Mr. Jones he had fame before 1 him. So great has been the success of the experiment that the government has set aside an immense tract of land in Arizona for a ranch and the further development of these cross-bred buf faloes. When Mr. Jones came to New York the other day to receive a cargo of black Galway cattle from Europe, he was asked for an interview. "Well, I answer by giving an ac count of my experience. Leaving Bloomington, 111., my native place, I settled in southwestern Kanss and es tablished a cattle ranch. In 1885, dur ing the terrible winter long to be re membered, I lost so many cattle that there seemed no future iu the busi ness.

Groves, the colored young man who was grad uated from the commercial depart ment of Highland Park college this spring, was educated to sell potatoes. And that will mean no small task. His father, who lives on a farm near Kansas City, Ivan., is known as "The Potato King," because he raises and sells more potatoes than any other man in the world. Resides his own production he buys potatoes and ships them. In Kansas City he maintains a commission office and employs i some ten stenographers and book keepers in his offices. Realizing that such a large business as his has grown to be needed a well trained head, he has been educating his son. The son, Walter, was first graduated | from the Kansas Agricultural college. | Then he came to Des Moines and j took the commercial course so as to be equipped for business. He has returned to his home in Kansas City, Kan., and will take up the manage ment of the business for his father.

They were fat and smooth, and I saw several small herds in what was then No Man'* Land, now Oklahoma. Among the hundreds of thousands of dead cattle not one carcass of buffalo appeared. That set me thinking. I thought long and deep. "Nature has taught buffaloes how to live and keep fat in the wildest weather. They will not only find plenty of grass after the fiercest bliz zard, but if there is a shortage they will luxuriate 011 the roots of any kind of herbage, as well as bushes and the limbs and buds of cottonwood trees. Xo matter how terrible a bliz zard may be, buffaloes turn their faces to tlie storm and will stand for days in a beating norther' that would kill the fattest American cattle or drive them hundreds of miles southward. "With these facts before me I deter mined to experiment, but I soon found that the secrets of nature are not to be had for the asking, and it was years before success seemed near. "The craze for buffalo robes cov ered the plains with hunters, and it was not long before the American bi son was nearly extinct. But for the government interference there would not be a buffalo alive to-day. When I began buffaloes were so wild there was nothing to do but capture the calves. 1 finally got 58 and began to hybridiz® crowing the buffalo bulls with domes tic cowa. Failure followed my first attempt, but 1 was not entirely dis couraged, and at last out of 20 cov, a I managed to raise two calves. "After years of experiment, I was able to save GO per cent, of our calves. Still it was all uncertainty, and it was more by accident and awkward ness than anything else that I stumbled on the secret of successfully propagating the new breed of animals which I have named catalo—not cat tleo, as some people spell the name. 1 now haVe an animal that is one-third larger than either of its ancestors —buffalo or cattle. The meat is delicious and the animals keep fat on any kind of food. "It is a fact that all the hardy qualities of the buffalo are retained in breeding. The buffalo dominates; it is the strongest type, hence we have a bred that will actually live on sticks and straws, and does not care for high feeding or sheds or barns. Our cows keep so fat while running loose on the plains that we have to put them in corrals and cut off their feed dur ing the btxxding season to reduce flesh. Cows weigh a ton each and the steers average from 2,700 to 3,000 pounds. The fur of the catelo when bred with the black Galway stock, is like otter or beaver, and the duster equals the finest Russian sable.

A novel method of preaching the gospel was recently tried in France with striking success. Pastor Delat tre from Roame (Reformed church), in company with Pastor Sainton, of the Baptist church, in Paris, visited with an automobile the departments of Loire, Rhone, Alier, Saone et Loire, within a radius of about 90 miles. Pastor Delattre writes: "During near ly two months, from our automobile, we have been able to preach the gospel on market places, from fair to fair, distributing thousands of tracts and selling no less than 2,600 copies of the New Testament."
