Tho subject of tuberculous meat is
one of tho greatest importance to tho
community at largo iu view of the fact,
which has been scientifically demon
strated, that it is possible for that dis
ease to bo propagated by tho consump
tion of meat so tainted.
Various projects have from time to
time Let n suggi-sted for the treatment
of meat to make it harmless to tho com
munity at larfre. The safest plan is, of
course, the destruction cf such diseased
meat
A famous German scientist has, bow
ever, proposed that tuberculous meat
should be divided into at least two
classes, and only that deeply impreg
nated with tlie germs of disease should
l condemned absolutely and irrevoca
bly to cremation by the sanitary author
ities. Now, however, a proposal has
been made, based on more accurate ob
servation, that the diseased meat should
not bo thrown away at all, but should
bo potted.
This operation is to be performed at a
very high temperature and under steam
pressure, which would have the effect
of completely killing these hardy germs.
In this way much meat which would be
wasted can be rendered lit for human
food, and it may to taken with impu
nity. Sentiment will no dcubt declare
against the use cf diseased meat in spite
cf the assurance cf science, rearson's

And She U'aant ExtraTajrant.
One of the exhibits in a suit for di
vorce tried in Baltimore, in which,
among other things, the wife was charg
ed with reckless extravagance, had these
items as a sample of one week's expen
ditures by the woman in the case: Uat,
(200; notions, f 50; chewing gum and
toKiceo, (24; brushes and paints, f 10;
cologne, $3.75; ice cream, (7.75; oys
ters, 1 10, and cigarettes, (1.75. The
jury decided that this sort of thing was
a trifle too much to ask any man to sub
mit to, and helped, rather more than
anything else, to influence the jury to
give to the man the separation bo asked
fer. Yet the defendant calmly asserted
that there was ugt a purchase made in
that list but was absolutely essential to
her comfort This guileless young wom
an positively prided herself on tlie fact
that extravagance was cue sin of which
she was absolutely guiltless. Detroit

J aat a Little of the Uru.j.
An ex-Confederate soldier of South
Carolina tells this story to a writer in j
the Detroit Journal: "I had a friend 1
w ho was a chaplain in our army a
good man, as such men should be. Scv- j
eral of his own church members were in
the same regiment. lie kept a sharp eye j
on us, and tried to train us in the way
wo should go. And, when we were
rather short fer rations, some of the
rys brought in a Cue young porker. I

"'No, I won't cat it. I'd as soon cat
stolen meat.
"But we divided it up among the
bnys rind proceeded to cook a ham in the
best possible style. The smell of it fairly
made our teeth water, and when it was
cooked we were more than ready for it.
' " 'There's a Cue piece. Cut that off
for the chaplain, said one.
" 'No, I thank you,' said he. I said
I wouldn't eat it, and I won't, but'
passing up his plate 'I'll take a little
of the gravy." "
As Bad a Thjaf
" Who shall persuade coming ages,"
asks a writer in the Chicago Time-Herald,
"that the busiest city in tho world
harbors women who pursue whist as the
chief duty of life; who screw up their
household winces to the tightest possi
ble point iu order to pay an expert (3
an hour for instruction in its sacred
ccxle; who meet over card tables at 9
o'ekx-k in tho morning, hurry up their
Marketing and hush up their children

ried brains to sit silent at dinner, absorb
ed in regrets for leads unretnrned and
signals unanswered, and wind up the
uuregencrato day by lingering over a
whist table until midnight?"

"So you want to marry Fred, do

roblle Indifferent to Kirns Pnt Tp For Its
Conveniences
An enterprising advertiser once bead
ed a leng printed description of his
wares with the line, "Do not read this, "
and the avidity with w liich every line
was read stimulated other advertisers
to rcsott to tho same trick, until it be'
came old and worthless. Signs inpublio
place. aro treat 1 by the majority cf
people just the same ns the catch liiio of
yours ago. Every horse car and every
rar on the elevated system carries a sign
warning passeiigers thnt they must not
stand on the platforms, but in the busy
hours one rarely set's a car which docs
not carry all the people It can hold on
the platform, and no conductor has ever
made any cffci t to enforce the rule. Ev
cry car on tho Madison aveuuo line has
sigus painted cn t ho drcrt which give
orders to keep tho front doer cloned, but
noliody thinks of paying any attention
to the sign, and it seems to those peo
ple who travel on that line that the
front door is used more on the Madison
avenue line than on ;jjy other.
In the waiting rooms cf tho various
railway stations the signs ly which it fs
made known which parts of the place
arc for women might as well be removed
because no oue ti-ims to UiLe the least
notice of thtm, and the benches in the
waiting shed of the Grand Central sta
tion, over w hich a sign is posted, "Bo-
served For Worn n," would bo occupied
by men ccntinuully if the employees
did not call attention to tho sign.
At most places where people buy
tickets, iu banks where there are crowds
of depositors or peetplo who wish to
draw funds from tho institution, there
aro signs showing on which side tho line
foims, and still the re is never a day in
any cf tJJo larger of these places when
somo needle do net make desperate ef
forts to form a lino all by themselves
and work egainst the one which had
been formed before they came. They are1
cf tho same class who refuse to keep to
the right, and w hen they come through
a swing door on tho left side and re
ceive a bump hardlv appre-ciate the ser
moil contained in the few words which
the other man utters: "Serves you right!
Keep to the right!"
But then; is one sign in public places
the disreg;trd for which has aroused
much comment. It is in regard to spit
ting, and the evil that has bee n witmght
by the practice has been so 11 : oughly
discussed by scie ntific men that hundreds
of peeiple have determined tluit they
would help to enforce the rules of tho
health department and make at least
one sign more than a dead lette r. New

Franklin aleaau
One of tho most valuable rnd interest
ing pieces of furniture in Philadelphia is
owned by Dr. Roland G. Curt in and has
a place of honor in his office, at 22 South
Eighteenth street. It is Benjamin
Franklin's desk, the ve-ry ono be use-d
for 20 or more years, and at which ho
did most of his w riting, and in which
he kept most e f his papers.
It is big and broad, with a flat top
ond two tiers cf ample English cat
drawers and two drawers in the middle.
Tht-re are two fronts, making both sides
alike. The wcod is the finest solid ma
hogany, the brasswork is handmade
and the desk was evidently intended to
last for generations. A great stack e:f
letters and eld newspaper clippings toll
the story of the desk.
After the death "of Dr. Franklin it
came into the possession of the well
known Philadelphia exchange brokers.
Oue letter is very curious. It is from
Rev. Edwin Town, to wliose uncle it

HATS IN PARLIAMENT.
They Aro I tr port ant Factors la the Tlrit
kh Lower Uooae.
Of all the customs and traditions that
still cling to tho house of commons,
even in this matter cf fact age, the hat
plays the most impertant part In the
last century cne of tlie speakers permit
ted tho introduction of oranges, and
even nuts, if they were not loudly crack
ed, on the pica that they were not "tan
gible articles of food. " But. some years
after, this decision-was reversed by an
othtT speaker, who, on high medical au
thority, declared that as it would bo
possible to supjiort life on cither of these
two vegetables they must be conniuered
tangible products, and their public con
sumption weiuld, there-fore, not be per
mitted. Out of this decision a custom
arc-so, which, not being checked, slowly
de-e-pe ned into a tradition. The dexterity
which Bobly Lowe exhibited in trans
ferring a packet of sandw iches froin ono
of the side pockets cf the remarkablo
coats he used to effect to the interior of
his bat and the way in which he would
use his headgear to conceal the proce-ss
of mastication were-, it is said, sights to
behold.
Tho cer-upant3 of the ministerial and
front opposition benches are able to
moisten their throats during the delivery
cf a speech with a little liquid, but, al
though the private memU r is not ex
pressly excluded from the participation
in this privilege, no provision is made
for the consumption 'f any lubricant bo
may require. The traditionsof the house
allow him to conceal a sandwich or a
biscuit in bis pocket, but not a bottle.
Any honorable member may have a
glass of water, "but, while the leading
members of the opposition have the great
central table on which to deposit their
glasses e f w ater which is not supposed
to be quulificd by the introduction of
any other liquid, ahem! the private
member is expected to hide his glass in
his hut.
It is really astonishing what an im
portant f eatere the hat plays in the de
liberations cf our legislators. As no pri
vate member can claim by right any
particular seat in the house, except in a
few cases where members are tacitly al
lowe d to appropriate certain points of
vantage, a hut has to bo deposited be
forehand as an intimation that the seat
is secured. Oa ordinary nights a seat
can be retained by a card being inserted
in the slip provided tit the back of each
seat for that purpose, but when a do
bate of more than usual interest is ex
pected the hat is the medium employed.

Mrs. Massiugbcrd, tho president cf
tho Pioneer club, London, died recently
ut Llandudno. She wof the founder cf
tho club anil its lot linuneial friend.
Her loss will bo widely felt, fe r Mrs.
MassingLeid was u woman eif many in

were ever at the disposal of thesc ef her
sex who we re' less f avorahly place d than

in her frieLcis!nis uud uiiselnsh, it is
difficult to imugiue who will take her
place. Mrs. Alassingherd was an earnest
advocate of tc nipt ranee und in favor of
woman tsuffrage. It is, however, as
founder aud president eif the Iionecr
club that her name will be rememberesi.
She e xpended upward of 20,000 in es

which has proved of tlie greatest vulue

Tho Pioneer club is doubtless tho

Dr. Ntwra's Wife,
Of Dr. Kunsen's wife not much infor
mation has found its way into print.
She seems to have a very imperfectly
developed taste for publicity, but what
is kuow n of her is interesting aud indi
cates that she is an uncommon woman,
both in talent and character. It is re
corded by Dr. Nansen's biographers,
Brogger and Kolfsen, that his first nice-ting
with his future wife was in tho
woods about Froguer Seat or, where, cr.o
day, cbseivii!gthesolt.sof two feet stick
ing op cut t f the snow, he approached
them, with natural curiosity, in time to
see the head of Eva Sars emcrgo from a
snowbank. Dr. Nansen was marrieni in
1880, aftir his return from his success
ful cxpediticn across Gns-nlaud. When
he started in the Fram, in 1893, his
wife, left at homo at Lysakcr, near
Christiania, with ono child, turned for
tcupation to the elevelopment and nso
of her gifts as a singer and with notablo
success.
King O.scar cf Sweden is one of her
admirirs, and especially likes her sing
ing, which he has often heard, and since
she has bet n in England the compli
ment lias been paid her of a' king her to
sing be fore the queen. She is a stanch
backer cf her adventurous husband,
whose de parture on his pt rilous errand
cost her anxieties and misgivings as to
which she said little at the time. Since
her husband's return she has sometimes
spoken in conversation of her fears und
has said that careful comparison of Dr.
Nansen's diary with h-r re-cord or rc
nicinbraucc of her own sensations tears
her out in the belief that tlie times when
she was the most concerned about him
were the seasons cf his greate-st periL
That implies a telepathic communica

R0 0LE0 TAX.
Farmers nd Dairymen Opposed to th Bill.
The puro butter people of the Stato aro
much exercised over the prtKisition to
tax oleomargarine. They will liglit it
with all the force they can mass. The
pure butter league in tho Legislature
will lead the tight, and as this is a non
partisan organization, it will enroll un
der its bunnera all the representatives) of
farming constituencies. Professor John
Hamilton, Deputy Secretary of Agricul
ture, made an argument be-foro the
House TViys and Means Committee
against tho measure and insisted that
any proposition of this kind was in the
interest of manufacturers of oleomargar
ine. The proposition involves tho reMl
of the law which prohibits the manufac
ture and sale of oleo and the licensing of
dealers upon the payment of a tax of two
cents per tu ml. It is argued that the
revenue derived by tho Coiimionwoallli
from this source will very materially re
lievo the depleted condition of the State
lluam-ett ant, that no barm e-nn coino
through such a iMS?nse or tav to any in
dustry of tho Stale, Professor Hamilton
thinks it would le wise to Crt make
sure that tho iu'lustry that is to replace
tho protitahlo buller-nmking bran-li of
agriculture shall do m i for tho Com
monwealth in the way t.. stitisttntial and
permanent supisirt than the inixirlai)t
occupation it proposers to supplant. The
late census gives the iiiiiii)s-r of dairy
cattle iu Pennsylvania at K,i'7 and the
amount of bolter manufactured from
tliese dairy esiws in that year at 7sii,,oll
IMMiuda. The amount of cbeewe is given
at tJO.etX) pouiuLs anil the milk product at
3i,t"i,tJ gallons. If the ratio of In
crease has been as great from 1SM to 1J'T
as it was between 17! and l.vc a fair esti
mate of the number of ws at tho pres
ent time is alamt I, liM") and the num
ber of pounds of butter manufactured
annually at alxiut i,(i,i) p.ninds and
tho milk nt t;7,..',l'. gallons. These
trows are distributed among "11.4IJ far
mers' families, consisting eif I, ,'!'' per
sona, orotie- Cfth of tho entire population
of the State.
Professor Hamilton says that during
the present depressed condition of agri
culture, due Ui the low price of farm
produce, the farmers of Pennsylvania
have found it ucetsary to depend for a
large part of their suport upni the pro
duct of the dairy. Within the last seven
)ears this branch of farming has ad
vanced In Pennsylvania beyond that of
any other line of agriculture. AUut ..tie
thousand creameries have been estab
lished throughout the Commonwealth
and a large number of private dairies are
now in Huciressful operation. Many
farms that were once devoted to grain
raising have Ikc ii given up almost exclu
sively to dairying. The income of hotter
alone to the pesiple of Pennyslvania last
year amounted to between f li,i"".',l and
fls.uuti.oiio and the milk product at eight
cents per gallon amounted to J-i',().i.
The oilie-ials eif tho Department eif Agri
culture argue that this vast sum is a new
product each year, adding this much to
the actual wealth of the State and going
to the supsirt of over one million of peo
ple. They also argue that if the produe-t
of these animals were seriously threaten
ed there would be a serious depreciation
in the value of cows aud materials used
to feed them amounting to many mil
lions of dollars. A large iminlier of peo
ple would al.so do thrown out eif employ
ment. The price of butter in Pennsylva
nia is now very low and ranges from ten
to twenty -five cents a pound; the oleo
dealer can sell his product at any prie e
lietween nine and twenty cents. Profes
sor Hamilton argues that the legalizing of
the sale of oleo would result in a loss of
Slate revenue.
He also takes the petition that money
realilized from the sale of dairy products
is distributed among one million of pro
ducers; in case oleomargarine were to
take its place the profits of that industry
would be retained in the hands of but
comparatively few, rendering them in
ordinately rich at the expense of the mil
lion producers whose occupation they
have destroyed. Professor Hamilton
furthfr argues that ol dealers would
evade tho proposed lax by bleating their
establishments just along the Imrdei in a
neighlsiring State and take orders from
consumer, shipping to them direct.
Such packages so shipped .tin not li
liixtd by the SUto unless opened ond
sold aud the manufacturers would there
fore realize the entire profit, while the
State would !V mulcted out of the t.ix.
He also adds that it oleomargarine is
lieueficial and necessary bei-auso of its
cheapuess, making available for use by
the poorer clashes of the StatP, then the
logical and consistent method of proced
ure would he to admit it absolutely free
from tax. Xo State in tho I'uioii exce pt
Colorado and Mississippi has ever at
tempted to levy a lax on ol-niiarg.irine.
Wherever it has lieen admitted it lias
come .Hi Tree an-lwilli no restri'iicns
except those which 'provide that it shal
lie sold for w hat it is.
Dirct Inheritance Taz.
Begisterur.d ncccnier Jmii: s M.Cmtr
has received the ne.-essary blanks aud is
now prepared to collect the direc t inhcri-
tance tax provides! fir by a recent tu-t of
the legislature. The uew law took cITict
May VZ, and provides for a tax of two per
cent on the clear value all the personal
estates in excess of f.'i,t), at tho death of
the possessor. It does not apply to real
estate nor to personal estates valued at
Ie? than f.V. The tax goes to the stato
and is to lie levied through the register's
olllce where all estates are settled. As
soon as letters testamentary or letters of
administration are issued on an estate
the register is to make an investigation
to ascertain whether or not it is suhjea-t to
the inheritance tax. If ho thinks it is.
he is required to appoint an appraiser
who shall make an olllcial investigation
and repoit to the register and recorder.
If the estate is found to I e subject to the
tax, it is assessed and the money ILus
collected is turned over to the state. The
register is requires! to make a report to
the auditor-general on the first Monday
of each mouth of all estates so taxed. The
es tates of persons who died since May 12,
or of those who died before that time and
of whose estate the actual distribution
had not lieen made beforo May VI ar
subject to tax. It is believed this law
will give the state an income from much
property which has been exempt from
taxes, such as bank and other stock
which is not re turned to tho assessors,
and which thoreforo escaped taxation.
It Is dilllcult t conceive how property
can escape this tax, as all estates must !e
accounted for by those who settle them
up, and must tie returned to the register's
cilice. The new law will likely bo a
so'.irc of great revenue to the state as
there are many estates that w ill le tax
a' ile.
