"One dollar is the legal fee, sir."
"Will you take your fee in bees

"Well, go ahead and tie the knot
and I'll fetch in the wax."
"No," said the squire, seeing a
chance of amusins; himself, "bring in
the beeswax first, and then I'll marry
you."
Belnctantly the youth returned to
tbe yard where was hitched the horse
upon which, Darby and Joan fashion,
the couple had ridden, and brought in
the sack of wax. On being weighed,
its value was found to be about fifty
cents.
"WaJ," said the groom, "tie the knot
and I'll fetch in more wax next week."
"No sir, I don't trust; that's against
the rules of this office."
Slowly the disappointed youth turned
to depart, saying, "Come Jane, let's
go."
"I say, mister," suggested Jane,
moved by woman's wit, "can't you
marry us as far as the wax will go?"

squire, laughing; and he did.

rich tne quality of milk, make the
oily globules multiply without a rela
tive expansion of water bulk, and that
in a lesser way the oaseine solids
could be caused to likewise Increase.
Then again, experiments proved
that peculiarities of vegetable flavor,
like the odor imparted to milk from
roots, ensilage, etc, could be averted
by feeding such food to stock directly
after milking. Grasses and milk-flavored
herbage when turned to milk pro
duce that aromatic and delicate butter
flavor, always sought after by the con

ter is sixty-eight parts palmltlne and
thirty parts olelne, there romalns two
parts which if affected debases the
value of the whole. This insignificant
proportion of 2-100ths of the bulk
consists of peculiar odoriferous and

maker against U9lng anything but the
very best commercial color, because if
base ingredients are used in eliminat

the hue given to the dairy product
will be of an inferior cast.
It must be remembered that zho but
ter globules or "oil drops" are not
quite fluid, but have a pasty consist

palmitine which they contain, in pro

(Train," and tbe grain of butter
should not be broken till It is spread
by the table knife of the consumer.
The writer here presents the most
salient points of the new and intelli
gent method of dealing with this
oleaginous commodity:
1. Cream ripening evenly in one
oatch, not several messes in different
stages of maturity mixed together prior
to churning.
2. Churning at a uniform tempera
tare, of whioh an average of 60" can
be regarded as standard.
8. A firm granulation of the butter,
which the proper temperature la the
cream will assure.
- The washing of the butt with
cold water, when it is in a granulated
state. Washing should be accom
plished by a gentle revolution of the
dash till the water runs off clear.
6. Working salt into the butter with
gentleness, exercising extreme caution
not to overwork. As soon as the salt,
whioh should be of the finest and
purest grade, ia incorporated In the
butter structure, you should cease
manipulate it with the ladle.
6. Paoking product in immaculate
OHSes. A correct process of manufact
ure will oome to naught if the butter
be packed loosely, or in unclean ves
sels. Few realize with what pertinac
ity spores and bacteria will cling to
the smooth surface of tubs and jars.
Only prolonged heat will kill the mi
croscopic spores, which, if not elimi
nated from the sides of the firkin, will
by their spreading into the butler
