A " BOOFER" LADY.
iL Dishonest Servant Girl's Ingenious
Story—Celestial Restoration of a stolen
Purse.
A despatch from London .says:—Across
the Channel at Havre, where the Police
Court cases are even more exciting than
those of London,a domestic servant came to
grief under very peculiar circumstances.
She was young and vain, and wanted more
. money then her wages to use for gay rib
bon and flash jewelry. One day her mita
trese lost her purse, containing $3.50.
Every nook and oorner of the house was
eearched in vain for the money. The girl
was questioned, and she advised consulta-
bion with the rector of the parish, volun-
teering to undertake the commission her-
• self. About an hour afterwards she returned
with the puree and the money. Her story
was that the cure sent her into the ohurce
to recite four paters and four ayes. " I
had just begun the forth pater," Raid the
artless servant, "when I heard a rustling
.over my head, The central vault opened,
and a beautiful lady, attired in a long blue
gown, and borne on a cloud of rosy hue,
descended elowly toward me. The beautiful
lady said to me; Itetern to your mistrese,
but before you enter the house plunge yeur
hand into the watertrough in the courtyard.
You will take out the purse and the
money.' You know the rest." Startled
and gratified that a miracle should have been
worked in their behalf, and for the trifling
sum of $3.50, the owner of the purse and her
leusband went at once to the parsonage
and overwhelmed the astoniehed cure with
their thanks. But the girl had not been
near the geoeory, nor had theft been
shy miracle. The story of •the beautiful
lady was pure fiction, the girl havingstolen
the money, and used her vivid imagination
to divert tientpleion from herself. She was
;awarded with a month's imprisonment.

THE FARM.
Locating. the Dairy House.
Whether the dairy MORI shall be under
the same roof as the dwelling,an ndepend.
enb building, or whether a suitable room
shall be fitted up at the barn, is a problem
dairy farmers are called upon to decide,
says a correspondent, Each way of opexe
ating has its own eepecial admirer; and
very likely my ideae upon the subject will
have very iittle bearing; but some reasons
which I have for favoring one plan more
than the others seem to me to be so plainly
labor saving, I will give prospective build-
ers of dairy houses a few hints regarding
them.
A detached dairy house built of stone,
brick or wood, neatly painted, surrounded
by vines and blossoms, looks very pretty.
It may be furnished with all the modern
appliances for comfort and convenience ia
handling milk and butter, and really be a
model building; but my word for it, after
the woman of the house has used its, month
rhe would be willing to put up with a lit-
tle less room and fewer accommodations if
she could be saved the extra steps in goiog
to and fro between the dairy house and
kitchen.
In pleasant summer weather it is bad
enough, when sunshine, or at least day.
light lasts long enough to attend at the
milk ; but in several months of the year
the milk must be taken care of by lamp-
light. Add to this the days of cold or in-
clement weather, and. the eeveral trips to
the dairy house become positively a dread,
and a meuace to the health of the woman
who has it in charge.
Said a woman who has a neat dairy
house four or five rods from her kitchen
door: "1 would give anything if it stood
close up to the house. The many weary
trips I make in a day to get milk, butter,
cream or ice would count up above a dozen
some days. I try to keep milk in the
house,too, but I am sure to get out of
something and have to run out to the dairy
house for it. No, indeed, I do not like it.
If it were possible, without a great deal of
work, bo move it, I would mirteinly have it
done."
As to having a room fitted up at the
barn, thab would be worse yea Where a
separator is used it might be all right for
that, but unleas run by an engine, hot
water must be carried out there to wash it
.with, or else the parts must be brought
into the house to be washed. If the warm
milk is run right from the cows through
the separator, and the milk fed while still
warm, it might be convenient in respeot to
carrying it to tee house and back again;
but if, as is often practised, the separating
is only dene once a day, surely the milk
from the other milking must be strained,
cooled, and warmed again before it can be
put through the machine.
Now, for various reasons 1 very much
prefer a room under the same roof as the
dwelling for my butteranaking and cream -
raising. It saves time and steps, two very
great points in its favor. It need not be
contaminated by any odors; isamol in sum-
mer by reason of being protected on three
sides by other rooms, and in winter no
cold or snowy walk to be traversed before
daylight, to draw off the milk. If anyone
is planning to build a dairy house this
spring I hope they will consider well what
it will necessitate if built at a distance from
the house. Let the ice -house be close to
the house, and in one end of it fit a room
for the milk. Some may think there
would be a disagreeable smell from the
sawdust, but there is none if partitioned
off, as it certainly should be.
One thing about a floor for it. Let it be
of cement by all means, with an incline to
carry off water. If there is any place
where it is needed it is in the dairy room.
The best of board floors will decay from
moisture, The walls and ceiling may be of
matched ceiling if desired, and either oiled
or painted. The proximity of the ice keeps
the room cool in summer and is convenient
also for using, as it has lady to be dug out
of the sawdust and washed, with very
little carrying—a point in high favor with
the men folk;
Eggs in Winter.
Have a comfortable house for your fowls.
It need not be expensive, but it must be
warm, for one cannot expect to get eggs
roin hens with frozen feet and combs.
Clean out the hen house every week and
whitewash, it inside and out frequently.
For breakfast give potatoes, apples, tur-
nips and other vegetables, cooked until ten-
der, salted and peppered as for the table,
thickened with corn meal or middlings, and
feed warm. Give wheat or Ants for dinner,
and corn for supper. If possible, feed sun-
flower seed three or four times a week, as
it ismne of the best egg producing foods
known. Sunflowers are very easily raised,
require very little care, and can be grown
in fence corners and other places difficult
to cultivate. Dry the heads well and the
seed will keep as well as corn. Be careful
not to feed too much at a time, until the
hens are accustomed to it.
Meat scraps °hopped fine, should be
given them two or three times a week. Add
a piece of red or cayenne pepper in the pro-
portion of a teaspoonful to half a gallon of

Heaves in Horses.
The horses most likely to be affected
with heavee are those which are heavy
feeders, greedily swallowing large amounts
of partly masticated food, whether bulky
or concentrated. Whoa molt horses are
kept in close stables andfed dusty hay,they
are very liable to this disease, especially if
worked or driven when the stomach is over-
loaded. When the affected horse breathe
there is a peculiar sinking in of the flanks
emth a short characteristic cough and
gasping, very eimilar to asthma in the
human subject. The horse may breathes
naturally the most of the time, with ecca.
sional paroxyms of heaves, especially on
exertion, as fast driving or pulling a load
up hill shortly after eating. Such horses
are rarely troebled with the heaves when
the stomach is empty and this is the key to
their treatment. Feed good,olean hay and
oats with bran mashes and carrots or green
food, giving the horse gehtle exercise and
good grooming. He should not be exposed
to cold draughts or severe storms. Do not
work him hard, and never on a full stom-
ach.
CASTOR OIL JAGS ARE POSSIBLE.
Paranine, Kerosene and Cod Liver Oils
Also Produce Intoxication.
In the usual acceptation of the term in-
toxication, or drunkenness, or inebrity—
for they all mean practically the • same
hing—is referred to the excessive use of
alcoholio beverages in one form or another.
Norman Kerr, the highest English author-
ity on the subject, has pointed oub, how-
ever, that there are a great many things
besides alcohol which produoe intoxication
and that alcoholic inebriety is nob so dan-
gerous or deleterious in its effect as some
other kinds of intoxication. Dr. Kerr
enumerates among the things that " make
drunk come," as the Indian expreases it,
ether, co caine, eau de cologne, iodine, opium,
hasheesh, paraffine, kerosene, and even
mirth seemingly innocuous substances as
cod-liver oil and castor oil, It would
seem almost incredible that there could be
such & thing as kerosene inebriety or cod-
liver oil intoxication, but the records of
scientific research, as seb forth by Dr.
Kerr, are
NOT TO BE DISPUTED.
The fact seems to be that overindulgence
in any one of the numerous eubstances
known generically as paratriptios begets
a cumulative appetite, and that this is
a ccompanied in time by functional derange-
ment, and worse still, by a elaokening
and weakening of moral fiber. Tea,
coffee and tobacco, while less injurious
to most people than alcohol or opium or
ether, serve to illustrate the familiar
saying that the appetite grows by what it
feeds on. The tobaeco habit, the coffee
habit, the tea habit may gro* on one until
what was once a want becomes an actual
need, and each is as necessary to the com-
fort if not the health of the devotee as food
itself.
In the discuesion of all these questions
science is at e. disadvantage, because, firet,
no two human beings are exactly alike,and
second, no individual is exactly the same
at diffe"rent times. One man may drink
ahnost numberless drinks and evince no
sign of intoxication, while another will be-
come maudlin at the smell of a cork out of
a whiskey bottle. Then, too, the man of
clear head and strong digestion, to whom
usually liquor is
ALMOST AS WATER,
may find himself in a condition where a
single glass of wine will upset him. Science
cannot dei with such contradictory condi-
tions. One thing seeme certain—that the
human race, so long as its records have
been kept, has always found ways and
means to impose upon itself the condition
which we call drunkenness. The theory
and process ot fermentation, and even of
distillation, has certainly been known for
thousands of years, and men, at least since
the days of Noah, have continued to put
into their mouths the enemy that steals
away their brains. Happily the average of
intoxication, at least in all civilized coun-
tries, is decreasing. Drunkennees has gone
out of fashion, and while prohibition has
not won the day, moderation and temper-
ance have achieved a notable victory.
There will be just as many ways of getting
drunk as ever, and modern science may
discover new ones, but there will not be so
many people to intoxicate themselves as
there were in the times to which we refer
as the "good old days," when abstinence
from intoxicants was deemed evidence of
physical and mental weakness or folly.
Caterpillars.
Thirty-six tons of caterpillars and a large
number of cocoons were destroyed in the
effort to drive the pest from the young
plantations of trees on Hong Kong Island.
They appeared on pine trees with which
the Government is trying to reafforeeb the
island, and lasted for two months. Stations
were established where the caterpillar were
received and paid for by weight ; this
method seems 4.ci have been succeseful. It
is estimated that 35,000,000 insects were
killed. ,

"You must think 1 have as many feet

"Nott in your ease," he said pliantly,
and there was such a world of meaning in
his voice that she forgave his awkwardness
on the spot.

ABOUT THE 110USE,
The Canary Dird.
The (emery ia a hardy little creature.
Cleanliness, an even temperature, regular
ood, gonlighb and a de kly bath are all ho
requires. Like all other household Pete,
the cop ry euffers from overfeeding. The
best mile is to find out aa nearly as possible
the exact; amount of seed the bird eats
daily; Yellen this is determined, add a
teitle over the amount required, and re•
gularly feed as nearly that quantity as
posaible. The best thed only should be
purchased, and that ehonid be proonred
from a reliable bird otore and not from a
druggist or grocery. The most popular
bird food is German sinniner rape, or can,
ary and millet in equal proportions. To
these stables should be occasionally
added a bit of apple and a paste made of
equal parts of grated hardboiled eggs and
bread crumbs. _A piece of cuttlebone
should be bung within pecking dietance so
as to whet the appetite of the little song-
ster. The pereh should be twice the cir.
ournference of an ordinary lead pencil, and
the floor of the cage should be sprinkled
with clean sand. Birdie loves his bath,
and daily provisioa must be made for it by
platting the cage over a shallow bowl of
water. A mistake is often made by keep-
ing the bird for hours in the glaring sun-
light. An hour of sunshine a day is
sufficient, and there should be caution
against exposing the cage to the draughts
of the sunniest window.
The canary sings readily, and thrives in
any temperature varying from forty to
seventy-five but he resents a sudden change
and succumbs to the least suspicion of a
draught. The greatest enemies of the
canary are the day and night lioe which
literally annoy it to death. An excellent
German powder for this purpose perfectly
harmlees to the bird, can be bought at any
reliable bird store, and should be dusted
over the bird's body. The ottge,if of brass,
should be refinished, and the perches renew-
ed; if the cage be of wood,it should be thine
oughly washed with warm water and soap;
then its hould be coated with varnish and the
crevices treated with asolution oflbichloride
of mercury. At the first appearance of a fine
white deposit, varnish the epot immediately,
and the term of the tiny pests will be des-
troyed. If the bird has the appearance of
a puff ball, it is suffering from indigestion.
A simple remedy is to let two orthree drops
of castor oil float onealle drinking water,
and then feed the invalid on hemp for two
or three days. If Dickie peraistently re-
fuses to sing, he most probably has been
exposed to draughts and is suffering from
a cold. Add to the drinking water ten
drops of paregoric, a small teaspoonful
ot glycerine and a small piece of rock
candy, and add to his regular allowance of
food grated egg and cayenne pepper. No
bird should be the vietim to sore feet if
the perches are properly cleaned. The
remedy, however, is to soak the feet in
warm water and rub with glycerine. The
glycerine should be applied until healed.

Useful Recipes,
Beauregard Eggs.—Hard boil five eggs.
Separate the yolks from the white and put
each one through a sieve, keeping them
separate. Put a tablespoonful of batter
and one of flour in a sancepan. Mix and
add half pint of milk. Stir constantly un-
til it boils, add half teaspoonful of salt,
quarter teaspoonful of pepper, then the
whites of the eggs. Pour this over nicely
buttered toast, sprinkle the yolks over the
top, dust with salt and pepper, and serve.
Shirred Eggs.—Cover the bottom of
shirred egg cups, or any little china cups,
with orumbed bread, Drop on top of eaoh
a fresh laid egg. Put these cups in a bak-
ing pan of hot water and cook in the oven
about one minute. Dust with salt and
pepper, put a little bit of butter on top of
each and serve in the oups in which they
were cooked.
Fish Pie.—Pick into flakes some cold
boiled fish arid put in a dish. Cover with
cream and put aside to cool, and after sea-
soning with salt,pepper and chopped parsley
cover with an upper crust and bake for
twenty minutes in a quick oven.
Omelet Souffle.—Separate six eggs.
Beab the whites to a very stiff froth. Beat
the yolks of three and pour them over the
whites, add three tablespoonfuls of pow-
dered sugar and a teaspoonful of vanilla.
Mix quickly and lightly and heap into a
baking dish. Dust thickly with powdered
sugar and bake in a quick oven five or six
minutes.
Frothed Eggs.—Separate the desired
quantity of eggs, keeping the yolks in the
shell and pefectly whole. Beat the whites
to a stiff froth and arrange them neatly in
the form of a nest in little ahirred egg cups.
Drop a yolk in the center of each; stand in
a pan of boiling water ; cook in a quick
oven about one minute. Do not allow
them to brown. Dust with seat and pepper,
add a bit of butter and eerve at once.
French Paste..—Wash half a pound of
butter in ice water, and, when it is elastic,
take off a piece about the size of an egg
and place both pieces in the ice water.
Take a half pound of pastry flour and sift,
put in a platter and make an opening in

Piece of washed butter and half the white
of an egg, half teaspoonful of salt and half
teaspoonful of sugar. Add some ice water
and begin to work the ingredients together
and form a smooth paste. When well
mixed, knead. When elastic, out into
halves and roll each half into a sheet and
put the rest of the butter on one and cover
with the other after dusting the butter
with flour. Now comes the moit important
part of the whole recipe. Roll from you
and fold it, roll once more, fold and stand
away on ice to rest for about fifteen min-
utes. Take on the board again and repeat
this operation six or eight times, each sem
ond time putting it on the ice to chill.
Then put- in a cheese cloth and stand away
all night. Then it is ready to be made up
into all kinds of delicious pastry.

in New York State a fraction under 7 per

that the percentage in Canada would be

port points out the fallacy of the opinion
which has widely obtained that tuberculosis
is confined to the better breeds of the bo-
vine, The report says the disease is no
respecter of breed; and herds of common
animals have been found infeoted to the
flame extent as the more highly bred stook.
The disease is also found to be, under cer.
tain conditions, congenital, but only in a
small proportion, its general diffusion being
due to contagion. Fortunately great advance
has been made in the diagnoeis of the disease,
and tuberculin° is so accurate in indicating
the disease in animals inoculated or dosed
with it that the reaction following its use
is preatically certain,while,on the contrary,
in non-taberculous animals the agent is per-
fectly innocuoun. Thus any competentveter-
inarian should be able to detect the disease,
and skilled dairymen are now beginning to
examine their own cattle. The report
advocates a regular and continuous inspec-
tion of cattle and a supervision of the

and milk supplies of dairy districts sup-
plying cheese factories' crearneries and
condensers, after whichit could be ex-
tended to more remote districts. While
the work would Involve a large expendi-
ture, the conclusion is that the ultimate
gain to the agrioulturists and to the sav-
ing of human life would be beyond estima-
tion. When the experience of the
New York State Commission has found
tuberculosis in cattle wherever examina-
tions have been made, and when it is
considered that tuberculosis causes one in
every eight deaths among human beings in
New York State, the necessity of thorough
and complete remedial measures ie great.
The Dombeion and Provincial Governments
will certainly be warranted in undertak-
ing every means of checking the disease,
and it is to the interests of agriculturists
that they should render every assistance
in their power. Tuberculosis is an un-
pleasant fact which the farmer is called
upon to face at times, and attempts to
avoid inspection will only increase the
danger to his herds and the community.

In one of Boston's euburbs, a few Sundays
ago, the pried of one of the churches
announced that a collection would be taken
up to defray the cost of coal for heating

The Kensington Outrages on Females Trac-
ed to the Daughter of a Peer—Insane
Jealousy.
The London, Eng. , police recently received
conclusive information that the perpetrator
of v. sensational series of oubrages on women
in Kensington last month is a woman of
title* and the daughter of a peerof historical
family. The influence which in many
recent cases has enabled malefactors of
rank to escape justice prevailed with the
authorities in this case also, and she has
been permitted to go to the Continent under
promise of the careful surveillance of the
family. It will be remembered that a small,
slightly -built woman of ladylike appearance
dressed in black, and thickly veiled, stab
bed several women in the fate, having first
accosted them under pretext of requiring a
direction. The outrages extended over a
fortnight, until local vigilance committees
were formed and several arrests were made,
but no one was brought to trial. The
police have dince, however,secured evidence
from the servants of the titled woman re.
ferred to, who resides in Kensington as
well as from others, to prove her the guilty
person. She is young, good-looking, and
has been married only a few years, but she
has lately become a prey to frantic jealousy
ooneerning her husband, which impelled
her to make these savage, indiscriminate
attacks on members of he own sex. There

As before, everyone gave but Tim, who
looked mighty sly, and the priest wondered
thereat. Meeting Tim after the service he
took him to task for his conduct. "Now,
Tim, why didn't you give something, if
only a penny?" "Faith, father, I'm on to
