THE CITIZEN
The Land of Contraries.
Nearly all the older writers, especially
Heylin, Goering, Menlin, Mandeville and
the two Herriotts, frequently refer to
China as "the land of contrarities" and
"the land of opposite**.'' These names
seem to have been well applied, for, ac
cording to the Philadelphia Press, it is a
well known fact that the people of the Cel
estial Empire do nearly everything con
trary to the way in which it is done in oth
er parts of the world. Here are a few
striking illustrations.
We shake hands with each other, the
Chinaman shakes hands with himself.
We uncoyer the head as a mark of respect,
the Chinaman not only remains with head
covering in place, but removes his shoes if
he wishes to appear very, very polite. VTe
shave the face, they the head; we cut the
nails of the fingers, they consider it ultra
aristocratic to let them grow several inches
in length. The Chinaman not only wears
his shirt outside of his trousers, but whit,
ens his shoes instead of blackening them.
We bary in the earth, they on the surface;
and white is their badge of mourning. In
"the land of opposites" it is the old men
who tly kites, walk on stilts, play marbles
and shoot fire crackers. With us the right
hand is the place of honor: with them it is
the left. We live, cook and eat on the
ground floor and sleep upstairs; with this
contrary nation the reverse is the general
rule.
In dainty letters we write the year last;
they place it first. We pay our doctors
when we are sick; they pay as long as they
remain well, but as soon as they fall sick
the pay stops. Here men kill their ene
mies; a Chinaman gets revenge by killing
himself. A full hundred things could be
mentioned which they do opposite to the
manner iu which it is done in other parts
of the world; howt-viT, I will close this
"curiosium" by adding that they launch
ships sideways, ring bells from the outside
of the building, and actually turn screws
in a contrary direction.

White Soap.
An excellent soap for washing flannels,
ginghams of dolicate colors or any wash
able material requiring care can be made
at the expense of a few cents and a little
economy on the part of the housekeeper.
Take three pounds of new un slacked lime
and six pounds of washing soda. Pour
over this five gallons of boiling water. —
Stir until the soda is all dissolved. Let it
stand until it becomes perfectly clear,
then pour off the clear liquid. Add to it
six pounds ol clean fat (saved from the
cooking) and one cup of salt. Boil for
three hours. Take a little out in a saucer
and if it hardens pour the mixture into a
wooden tub, and when cold cut into bars.
It will goon cure and be as white and firm
as Castile soap.

A Sympathetic Girl.
It isn't fair to give a Butler girl away,
possibly, but truth will out, even in a
newspaper. Butler has one among its
countless pretty girls who was in the coun
try in May and one day she happened
out towards the cow lot about milking
time and was asking the man several ques"
tions.
"Why don't you milk that cow?" she
asked, pointing to one in an adjoining lot.
"Because she's dry, miss."
"Dryt"
"Yes, miss. She's been dry for two
weeks."
"You cruel wretch," she exclaimed,
"why don't you give her some water?" and
the man turned his face to the cow-house
and shook with emotions he could not sup
press.

—When you visit the big fair at Chicago,
it would be well to remember that the
purveyors of food in that wonderful city on
the lake front have a poor conception of
what is fair and reasonable in the matter
of price. Reports from the exposition are
alarming. One facetious correspondent
informs us that egg shells must be return
ed to the waiter, and that functionary ox
acts fifty cents every time a tired visitor
drops a fork on the floor. If this thing
continues it will be necessary to fill one's
pockets with old fashioned ginger snaps
and other delicasies before starting toward
the windy city. Seriously, however, the
charging of extortionate prices has assum
ed such proportions as to call for action bv
the Council of Administration, which sat
down on the restaurant people yesterday.
The restaurant proprietors will be requir
ed to formulate full scedules of prices im
mediately and submit the same to the Ex
ecutive Committee of the World's Colum
bian Exposition for approval. Hereafter
in every case the person patronizing "any
restaurant shall be furnished with a slip or
bill of fare showing the charges to be paid
l'or the supplies and services rendered.
PURE WHISKEY

a house is that of Max Klein,of Allegheny,

"THE KIND THAT CURES."
Scab.
A recent number of the Rural -Vtv
Yorker contain* an article by 11.
L. Bolle illustrated by photographs,
showing the advantage of soaking
tho seed tubers in corrosive subli
mate solution. The author says it has
been demonstrated that the blackened,
pock-marked condition of potatoes, com
monly spoken of as potato-scab, is due to
the action of a parasitic cause which not
only originates disease on the tubers, but
also affects the roots and bases of the vines.
The disease is propogated in the new crop
from that on the seed tubers, and the auth
or claims that, if the tubers are treated
with the substance nieniioned, the plant*
will be free from the disease.
Photographs are given of potatoes grown
without having the seed tubers treated and
those that were treated. The treated seed
yeilded seed that were clean and free from
disease. The treatment is easy of applica
tion and the yield is increased. The seed
tubers were soaked far one and one-half
hours in a one one thousandth solution ol
eorrosive sublimate. The author claims
that the ordinary method of spraviLg the
vines is simply a waste of energy, as the
inception of the disease is from below.
Sweet vs. Sour Cream for Butter.
The relative merits of sweet cream and
sour cream for makiug butter were tested
last year in a series of elaborate experi
ments at the lowa Agricultural College.
Sweet cream, fresh from the seperator,
was thoroughly mixed and then accurately
divided in two equal parts by weight; one
of these parts was churned immediately at
52 degrees F.,the other was ripened at CO
degrees, and then churned at 59 degrees.
The buttermilk was tested for fat, and the
butter was analyzed. In the nine tests the
yield of butter from sour cream was three
per cent larger than from sweet cream.
The sour cream usually churned quicker
than the sweet, and the butter contained
2-100 of 1 per cent more casein. The loss
es of the fat in churning, washing *i:<i
working were less with sour with
sweet cream, In nine trials the average
difference was nearly half pound per 100
pounds of batter made. After being kept
five months the sweet cream butter ac
quired somewhat of the flavor and aroma
of ripened cream butter, and was in better
condition.

—Why do weeds come up in the spring
and why are the seeds not destroyed in the
winter ? Simply because the farmer un
intentionally preserves them. He turns
them under with the plow in the fall be
neath the reach of frost, and turns them
up again to tho surface in the spring.
Weeds should be destroyed before they
produce seed, and they will soon be cleared
from the land. On the small farms of
China and Japan such a thing as a weed is
almost unknown.

MOHICAJM IKZUfcTO-,
Keeord 2 37J in a race on a half-mile track.

sire of demonstrated race horses, and the hand
somest horse in the world. Thirteen sons and
daughters of this great horse made records bet
ter than J. 3« last season. Including: the (Treat
mare, Ntghtlngale—2.loX made I n the fourth
heat of a race. They are bread winners. They
are the handsomest class ol horses on earth.
"Mohican K lug's dam was sired by a s.m of
Hambletonlan (10) called Mohican, who was the
sire of live great race horses, showing that the
blood lines which go to make up Mohican
King's remarkable pedigree have and will train
on, trot on and win on, besides being famous
for their beauty and line finish.
I started Mohcan Kin* in Ove races last fall
getting a piece of the money every time, and
won the largest purse and best race ho started
ill. which certainly ought to be a credit to ab
hors for the tlrst season. lie is like his sire,
a beautiful dark chestnut, very handsome,
hefvy boned, well muscled, and has grert lung
power. Ills colts are all stamped closely after
himself, speedy and line looking.
This horse will make the season of 1593 lti
Butler, Pa. Terms, t'iS to insure. No account
abllitv for accidents. Will be found lu the
Scott Barn, in the alley north of the Wick
House Livery ISarn.
Will be found at the Fair Grounds. L. Dean,
