- SAVE VOlill COAL.
Ashes Are Said to Answer. Every rummies
In a ',fetter to the Chicago Herald, a
writer gives the following information :
For the interest of the public n genera!,
I kindly request you to publish the follow-
ing,in your valuable 'taper : The majority
of our people, after they have burned coal,
either sift the ashes or throw them away.
Now, I earnestly request them not to do so,
but simply take the ashes and use them
again, the same as coal, under the following
instructions : First, Start the fire as
usual with .wood and. coal ; after it is in
full blaze take the ashes (as they come)
and cover the burning ccatecompletely with
the same. There is no lhnit tor quantity
used, but reinember, 'before using the ashes,
they must. be moistened 'thoroughly, and
the result will be a. great surprise, pro-
vidirig they comply exactly with my in-
structions. • A stove can . be red-hot, if so
-chosen, for about five or six hours, with-
out usipg any further coal. Remember
hard coal only can be used for said pur-
.
pose. .

a flexible stick, not unlike a piece of yellow
Whalebone, twisted into a kind of true
lovers' knot. You light one end of it .and
as it smoulders slowly away a scent of
vanilla, not aggressively strong, flo-ate
through the air. This is one of the "good
ideas" of the street hawkers, especially as
vanilla is _ one of the .perfumes which are
popular almost with everybody. A few
faddists have it _that vanilla used as a
*flavoring is intoxicating, but those are only
the people whom apiece of underdone steak
makes - tipsy, and whom green vegetables
give all kinds of complaints .
On some parts of the European -continent
a finial piece of. vanilla is put into the tee
-.pat together with the tea. The flavors are
said to b end well, just as in Russia you
take yourtumbler of tea with a slice of
lemon instead Of milk, and as in'France and
Germany you add a teaspoonful of arrackor
rum in your thimbleful of after-dinner
coffee. .
.13ut-there is yet a dantier way ef taking.
your vanilla flavor with your tea.. And
this ruffine manner is British and not con-
tinental. When the tea or coffee eervice is
being made vanilla flavor is added to • the
china when it is in the potter's hands, and
thus ibis baked into every artic4 of the
set. Whenever afterward .the tei things
get'hot as ,they are being used, they exhale
a faint aroma of vanilla, Which, to the feeti-
diem?, may be perferable to the actual in -
'fusion into beverages of the piece of square

,
An Instance ott e Wonderful Intelligence
-
ofthe S tchahepherd Dog.
Few people who have not witnessed the
achievements of a Scottish ehepherd dog are
aware of . what can be done by, this intelli-
gent animal. Some years ago I was in the.
Sciattish Highlands, at a very little country
village in Aberdeenshire, when during es
long, Wet evening the conversation turned
onthe dog and What he could doby help of •
training. Several wonderful stories weretold
by membere of the Party, each apparently ,
striving' to excel - the others in the mar-
vellousnessof his narrative, 'one of the
party being an old _shepherd, . who during
the story -telling had said not a word, but
sat Iiiitening, smoking and taking frequent
sips of his whiskey and water. BY and by,
after an unusually heroic effort to outdo the
tett had been made, he roused up, .and in A
broad Scotch brogue announced that his •
dig could actually perform feats more won-
derful* than anything that had been told.
General interest was awakened, and some-
one asked hiM„witakhis*dpg could do. He
replied that if the gentlemen present would
make it worth the triteible he would send
his dog a mile and have him find a shilling
which any one of the eViiipany and himself
Would go and hide. .
. Asmall Puree of six or eight shillings Was :
at once made up, lipid the ab.epherd took -a`
shilling from his pocket and asked some one
to mark it. It *as scratched with a knife,
and with two of the company the shepherd •
started oat, leav* g his plaid and telling the
dog Sandy tostayand watch the garment.
Sandy looked lo g and anxiously after his
mister, ' when,- the latter departed, . but
stayed witli the plaid. It was It.illin, aff
in the Scottish -highlands and nowhere
else it can rain, in bucketfuls at 'a time, :
but the., shepherd - and the committee
trudged off - -With a. lantern- by •• an -
unfrequented pali up the mountain side
about a mile, 1 or until the committee
declared themselves 'satisfied, then raised a
flat stone a few, 'yards from the path,
scooped out a few. handfuls of earth and
hid. the shilling, replacing the earth and the
stone. They came back to the inn and re-
ported what they had done. The shepherd • -
celled Sandy and told ,hini, "Go, Sandy,
and -find." By this time eVerybody In the
party was anxious to see the thing done, but
it was raining so hard that nobody cared to
venture out. - So Sandy started tiff by him-
self in the ram,
while his master and the
committee satdown to dry ihemielves be-
fore the fire. Tikne pasied and no Sandy.
.and jokes began to be levelled' at the
shepherd, -who : s id little ,save to etprese
his utmost confidence in Sandy, "it will.
take him longer ii the rain," he said once, ‘
.end relapsed into silence. In about an
hour and a half there was a scratch at the
door. It was iiMnediately opened, and in -.
walked. Sandy, as I wet as a goose in May. .
He went straight :to his master, who held
out his.hand, whop- Sandy laid the Marked
shillingein his palm. Of coarse Sandi and
his master were the heroes of the evening
after that, and vilihn they left for home an
hour later, sandy had been stuffed with
delicacies until he could hardlywalk, and
his master was " roartia". fou."—Vancouver
