Lrrd Harecastle hastened to the library, where he found the Earl ly- ing back in his chair unconscious. His face was of a deathly pallor, PASTEURILI. THE WHEY. Pasteurization (1 whey at cheese factories, by injecting into it steam from the boiler, utilizing the ex- haust steam in this way for the sake of economy, is a practice that has Leen rather extensively tried throughout Western Ontari., this past season with excellent results, sc far as we have learned, in every case. The cost is not great, depend- ing somewhat upon the facilities, especially the size of the boiler, but in a reasonably large, well-equip- ped factory it need not exceed 50 cents per ton of cheese. The advantages of pasteurization aro that it keeps the whey sweet, and the whey tanks in touch more cleanly and sanitary condition. The cans are more easily washed, there I•eing less grease adhering to there, while they are less affected by the smaller percentage of acid in the whey, and consequently last long- er. The pasteurization of the whey inhibits the growth and develop- ment of the yeasts which cause bit- ter, yeasty or guosy flavor, pre- venting their from spreading from (ne patron to another through the milk cans in which the whey is re- turned. In this respect, pasteuriz- ation of whey has proven a great blessing to not a few factories. The feeding vallis of the whey is improved in two ways: by checking the development of acid (soaring), it makes the whey more wholesome for young pigs and calves. It is frill -id, also, t hat while ordinarily the fat in the whey rises and floats on the surface of the tank. so that the ordinary canful pumped up con - fits for catarrh in the head and r tains very little fat, while the last he is satisfied I am content.

"STORY OF TUE GUIDES" Quelling a Native Rebellion in India. No Body of British Troops Have Done Better Work Than "The Guides." It is exac'.ly fifty years ago since peace and order acro restored in India after the great Mutiny, and in the thrilling story of how the revolt of 100,000 native troops was erushed by some 40,000 European soldiers under Lawrence and Camp- bell, the name of "The Guides" looms large. The latter were a corps formed in 1i -1G by Sir Henry Lawrence, who, at a time when Sot(IieTM fought, marched, and lived in tight scarlet tunics, high stocks, trousers tightly strapped over Wel- lington boots, and shakos which would now be looked upon as al- most certain death, decided to raise a troop of comfortably and suitably clad soldiers—trustworthy men who could at a moment's no- tice, act as guides in the field, col- lect intelligence, and, in addition, give and take hard blows. Martinets of the old school grav- survivors within, perhaps a dozen or so, he said: 'The sahibs gave us this duty to ierform, to defend this Residency to the last.

" AND TIIEY MARCHED OUT TO D1 E. "The annals of no array and no regiment can shoo a brighter rec- ord of devoted bravery than has been achieved by this small band of Guides." So reads the inscription on the memorial at Mardan, which the British .•overnment raised in memory of Kabul. There has always been a keen competition for enrelmc tit in "The Guides," and in the early days, when Lumsden was in command, there were sometimes as many as thirty men rc(eiving no pay and maintaining tilt m.elves and their horses while awaiting a vacancy. ".inn great indeed tins the excite- ment y. hen Lumsden, in his bluff, breezy wny, would say : 'Well, here's a vaenney, and I don't for the life r f me know which of you to give it to.
