In salting butter I never weight either
the butter or salt, writes lady corre
spondent. For An inexperienced person
it may be well to Know that an ounce ot
salt to the pound of butter is shout the
right proportion to be used, but in prac
tice the ounce of salt may be too much
or too little, according to the stage in
which the salt is applied and the nmount
of buttermilk that is worked out after
wards. I think there is nothing in but-tcr-making
that requires more judgment
than salting it to suit the nverago tnsto
of customers, and for this no fixed rulo
can be given or followed. Success in
this particular must depend wholly on a
discriminating taste in tho buttcr-mitker
herself. Occasionally a person may bo
found who dislikes salt in butter. I have
known cases where such persons would
wash the butter in water before eating
i:. Tint, with the great majority of peo
ple, tastes are not so dissimilar that one
cannot hit it pretty woll by salting to
suit one's own. At least I don't know
any better method. Xae York World.
TO CMC AX CI.OTK GARMENTS.
Slake a strong, warm soapsuds, and
phiuge the garment iuto it, sousing it up
and down for a length of time propor
tionate to the dirtiness of the goods.
Have ready a second tub of suds, also
strong and war.n, and souso it in this for
awhile, liub any and all particularly
greasy places the collar, culls, lapels,
etc., by using a brush and extra soap
suds into which ammonia has been poured
for tho purpose. Rinse it through several
waters, or until it comes out clear and
clean at the last, and, without squeezing
or wringing the garment, hang it up to
drip on the line.
When it is nearly dry take it in and
roll it tip for an hour or two beforo iron
ing. To prcs it properly, lay an old
cotton cloth upon tho garment and press
upon this uutil the wrinkles disappear.
If tho wrinkles prove obstinate nnd re
fuse to "out," wring out a second cotton
cloth in warm water and press the iron
upon that; this will remove the stub
bornest crease.
Great care should be taken to remove
tho iron before the steam ceases to rise
from the goods, cho they will bo shiny
again. If, by any unfortunate tnrdiuess
in removing the iron, some shiny place
should show, treat it as you did tho
wrinkles place a warm, wet cloth over
it, press again with the iron, removing
it quickly to nllow the cloud of steam
that follows in its fiery wako to lift the
flattened nap up with it.
Cloth should always have a suds made
especially for it, as that iu which white
cotton or woolen goods have been washed
is usually full of lint, which will cling
so pertinaciously to black cloth gar
ments that all the cleansing process seems
to have done them no good. Detroit

That Is less than the liquor traffic costs this

est part of it out of the pockets of the labor

the drink. It is the greatest monopoly in the
land. What do the political papers say
alKHit it? Nothing;. Tliey aro silent as the
grave. Iu fact, tliey are silent partners in
this "gigantic crime of crimes of the nine

to turn tho attention of the people from their
Iniquitous course, they make a great hue
and cry about other matters of intlnttely less

rnOTECTIXO THE CiULDREX.
By degrees, Europeans are being con
vinced ot the injurious consequence of wine
drinking upon the young. A certain num
ber children in Berue, Switzerland, were for
bidden the use of alcohol in any shape or
form, during eight months of the year, but
during the remuiniug four months they were
supplied with the usual quantity of wine di
luted with water. The parents carefully
watched tho children throughout the year,
and found that they slept better and longer,
nnd appeuvej decidedly brighter during the
eight months of abstinence than during the
period of wine-drinking. In the recent In
ternational Alcohol Congress, held iu t'hris
tiania, Norway, great prominence was given
to the baneful f fleets of alcoholic liquors upon
children, even the most persistent moderate
drinker udmittiitg that education and legis
lation are necessary on this point. It was
resolved to watch the methods employed in
the United States for teaching children the
scientific effects of alcohol, and, if possible,
to secure the introduction of tho same text
books.
ALCOHOL A3 A. CACHE 07 DISEASE.
, Dr. Lewis D. Mason, of the Inebriate
Asylum, Fort Hamilton, N. Y., discussing
"The Etiology of Dipsomania and the
Heredity ot Alcoholic Inebriety," dotermins
as facts that alcoholism iu progenitors will
produce physical and mental degradation iii
their descendants, with the disorders that
arise from a defective nerve organization;
and all grades of mental weakening, from
slight eufeeblemcnt of intellect to iusanity
and complete idiocy; and that the laws regu
lating these changes ure similar to those that
govern congenital degenerative changes from
othercauses. The offspring of thecontlrmed
drunkard will inherit either the original vice
or "some of its countless Protean transfor
mations." In another paper on Pathologi
cal Changes in Cnronic Alcoholism Dr.
Mason rxnihiui alcohol as modifying the
serum and the anatomical element of tne
blood, besides being an irritant and directly
producing modification and degeueration of
tis.-ue, aud therefore as being most evidently
a disease-producing agent. Contrasting the
little progress that has been made in the
study of thepnthvlogy of chronic alcoholism
and of the diseases incident to alcoholism
with the great advance that has been
achieved in knowledge of microbic diseases,
lie udds: "Alcohol has not any microbe, but
the grand total of iu mortality will exceed
the combined effect ot all the bacteria that
has ever passed the microscopic field or de
veloped iu the culture-tube of the bacteri
ologist." The subject is now, however, be
ginning to receive some of tho attention it
deserves. I'oputar Hvience Monthly.
IBB KAllUM B DK1KK BILL.
Professor Francis G. Peabody.of Harvard,
in a lecture on the temperance question be
fore the Lowell Institution of boston the
other day, said in substance: There are two
aspects of the liquor question, the economic
and the moral . There ure at present in the
liquor tralllo throughout the country some
KJ.OUO persons -163,000 in the retail and the
rest wholesale. T hese figure represent only
the dealers. The numlwr of persons employed
is upward mt 1,000,000. The worst of these
horrible figures is that they mean the with
drawal of just so many persons from the
right kind of employments. In their present
occupations they contribute little or nothing
to the wealth of the country.
As to the amount of liquor consumed in
lHbO, 137,000,000 was spent for spirits, f304,
000,000, for beer, tl,000,OU for imported
wines and fW,OoO,000 for domestio wines a
frightful total of about $700,000,000. This is
one-twelfth of the amount spent for food,
clothing and necessaries of hie.
In the same year there was received as
wages 957,O00,U00, and the liquor bill con
sumed two-thirds of it. Again, it costs (3.M.
000,000 a vear for churches, aud the drink
bill would buy all tho churches in six
luonthB.
behind all this is the great importance of
the moral aspect. That drink is injurious to
WJ cases out of 1000 goes without proof.
The question is: How can it be stopped?
Legalization fails of its aim. The solution
of the problem, though stdl far off, perhaps,
is in each individual recoguiziag that he him
self is an important factor iu his community
as an example, and adopting for himelf the
teaching: "If meat make my brother to
offend I will eat no meat, lest I make my
brother to offend." Commercial Adver

Infhnt Serpent.
A described by Dr. Waltor Bibley, In
bis paper in the British Association on
"The Incubation of Serpents' Eggs," tho
first sign of the process of hatching is a
lit, usually V-shapod, appearing at tho
highest part of tho egg-shell, whether
tho egg is placed on its side or on one
end. Tho snout of tho young reptile
appears at tho crack. After a time the
head is protruded, nnd often remains
out of tho shell for some hours before tho
body and tho tail are hatched. If dis
turbed, the head is agnin withdrawn in
to the shell. Tho author had seen fully
hatched young snakes return to their
shells when alarmed.
Tho young snakes, when first hatched,
aro smooth nnd velvety to tho touch,
with tho yellow ring (of tho common
English snnke) beautifully marked from
the first, nnd the ryes ocn; but often
thero is some opacity about tho cornea,
which disappears in the course of a fow
hours. They are about six inches long
nnd weigh about eighty grains. They
begin to hiss in tho first fow days. Aisw

Funeral of the Czar's Nurse.
There was a remarkable scone in St.

lady was eighty-ono years of ago, and
had been forty-six years in tko service
of tho imperial family. Iu fact, she died
at tho Winter Palace from which the
funeral procession started. Tho weather
was very bad and the streets wcro full of
molting snow and mud, which mado tho
walking particularly disagreeable. Hut
in spite of nil this nnd tho attending dis
comfort, it is worthy of notu that none
of thoso who were expected to bo pres

Whito Czar himself, nnd tho Grand
Dukes Vludmir, Sergius and Paul,
walked sido by side behind the hcaMO
which contained tho old lady's collln,
wading knee deep in the slush to tho

party attended tho funeral service, the
Emperor sitting in the Ambassador's

Disease Lurked In the Trunk.
There isadillerenco of opinion among
medical men as to tho contagious phase

The rath on of FgltneM. I
There Is a small doubt as to how a ma- '
Jority of women of average good looks
would answer the following question:
"Which would you rather be, regnant in
tho world of loiters or art or gifted regally
with a faultless beauty before which nil
men must thrill f It is more than likely ,
that ninety homely women out of any
hundred would in honesty prefer the I
power that goes with personal loveli
ness to that which goes with wealth, with
the accident of lofty birth or with tho j
rarest intellectual distinction. It was a
shrewd observation of the late Dr. Hoi-
land that when we find a man or woman
who is absolutely flawlcs.1 in form and
feature wo usually find a fool. "For a
homely even an ugly man," he saKl,"I
have no pity to spare. I never saw ono
so ugly yet thnt if ho had brains nnd
henrt Ire could not find a beautiful woman
sensible enough to marry him. Hut for
the hopelessly plain and homely sisters
'these tears I'"
Thero Is no pathos in human llfo so
profound nnd universal as this not upon
battlefields, not in the wild, vain strug
gle of a soul adrift, seeking its God. The
ugly woman is in every village in the
world, living out her little tragedy. In
every worthy, womanly quality she may
bo likely to be tho superior of her pretty
sister; she is tender, she is meek, sho is
true. Hut men yield her a smug respect
nnd turn to her sister with eyes of love.
She has heart-hunger, and sometimes
when she either does not possess gifts of
mind or the strength to cultivate thotn
sho Btarves into that stolidity which ap
peals to ono of gentlo feeling as docs tho
look of pain atloat in tho eye of a faith
ful, wounded dog. It is worse still to
seo her slowly brutalized by an ingrato
upon whom he has lavished a lovo that
is next to tho divine. It is love like hers,
indeed, that should bo tho proudest of
the human race so clean it is, so endur
ing, so wonderful in devotion nnd self
sncritice; but it is lovo like hers, instead,
thnt fills tho world with sorrow, fills its

For two years I suffered terribly
with stomach trouble, and waa for
all that time wider treatment by a
physician. He finally, after trying" '.
everything, said stomach was about
worn out, and that I would have to ,
cease eating solid food for r time at
least. I was so weak that I could
not work. Finally on the recom
mendation of a friend who had used
..your preparations
A worn-out with beneficial re
sults, I procured a
Stomach. bottle of August
Flower, and com
menced using it. It seemed to do
me good at once. .1 gained in
strength and flesh rapidly ; my ap
petite became good, and I suffered
no bad effects from what I ate. I
feel now like a new man, and con
sider that August Flower has en
tirely cured me of Dyspepsia in its
worst form. James K. Dbdkrick,
Saugcrties, New York.

writes: I have used your August
Flower for Dyspepsia aud find it an
