OREGON CITY COLJRIER-HERALD, FRIDAY, JULY. 5, 1901 , ' A Cool Hoimem slil. I A rather eurious method of burglar ; vateblng . was resorted to by an In-vreDlous-mnklservnnt recently lu New i'ork. As The Electrical Review tella the story, while In pursuit of her household duties the maid noticed a She did not scream, neither 'did she - Jump at the door nor shut it with a ibang. Instead she took a broom and began to sweep that corner of the room near the closet. Her approach was gradual, and the sweeping was done so naturally that It would not (have aroused the most suspicious bur- jjlar. At last the broom brushed the door jgently, but bard enough to close It to the fraction of an inch. With Ave or .six more gentle sweeps that closet door was shut and almoBt latehed, i which she at length succeeded n doing y gently pressing her arm against it. , As the telephone in her house .was . would be able to hear her if she called tor assistance, she bethought herself )f another plan. In the back yard :some telephone linemen acre at the time making repairs on a wire that I runs to another house in the block. She went out and spoke to tiicul. They .promptly tapped a wire, attached a testing instrument and called up one of the down town exchanges, which. In turn got the house owner, who in his turn called up police headquarters. From there the call was sent to the .police station nearest the house, and two policemen were sent around and got the man. Novel le For Ills Fodder. "I have heard of some strange and curious expedients that liave been used to clear the tracks In cases of railroad nrvof.lru " c,ll1 n Tv.ill bit, ten rnlWnil fllclal 'recently, "but the methods used I ton a small railroad not far from Bal ttmoie a few years ago to clear the tracks and Incidentally save a fine en gine from serious damage were the most original I ever heard of. 1 "The wreck had been caused by Ice forming on the rail from an overflow ing tank near the trestle. The train had two engines. The first engine and the cars had run out on the trestle and dropped over. The rear engine was left standing half sidewise on the restle, which was 30 feet high.

He offered to sell his big stock of corn fodder. The fclan was lo pile the fodder from the ground underneath the trestle to wlth .m a few feet of the track and then f opplo the engine over. The .plan work ed well, and owing to the elasticity of Jlie fodder the engine was not damaged to the least." Baltimore Sun. Some Cliildlah Ilnninr.

"Did they sing any pretty songs at .Sunday school?" asked 'a mother of her Slttlo 4-year-old daughter upon her re turn home. "Only one," replied the lit tle miss. "It was something about ilreetilmid's lee cream mountains." Tapa-Well, Willie, have you been a good boy today? Small Willie-Did you ask mamma? "Why should I ask lier? Don't you know whether yon liavo been good or not?" "Yes, but mamma's Idea of goodness differs from mine, and I don't want to go back on anything she says." The ll.'ii-at ol the Doubt.

Though Chinese cuisine has been credited with some utterly fahulous dishes, such as white mice served alive, which add piquancy by their Bquoak as they dive down the gullet, curiosities In the edible Hue do form a considerable list. Bird's nest soup, for Instance; a clear soup made from the refined gluten with which n certain species of swallow fasten their nests beneath the rocks; stewed "sen slugs," another nasty sounding dish, but transcending In flavor the alderinanle green turtle fat. There may be, too, on first Intro duction, some prejudice against fried grnssuoipers. But eoursge lu this In stance Is rewarded by a dellciously crisp, brown mouthful, of a delicate nutty flavor. It Is a fallacy to suppose that pork forms a constant article of diet in China. As a matter of fact, It is too expensive and is only eaten on high days and holidays or at restaurants. Neither do milk, beef or game enter much into Chinese cookery, the first two being tabooed on religious grounds. Dog flosh Is eaten In the south but rardy and only by the poorest of the poor.

A limited number of Rhccp should it kept on every arable farm in AmerUa. provided more or less of the land is Inclosed with some kind of fcnchig. says I'rofessor Shaw in Wool Markets and Sheep. I am satisfied that from 10 to 20 can be kept on every hundred acres of land without any cost to the owner for food t sc.pt in the winter. They will sustain themselves very largely at least on what would other wise be lost. They can be utilized In trimming up all byplaces on the farm. They may be made to do the work of scavengers. There are those who ridicule the Idea of keeping sheep as scavengers. Even so, that is Just the work I would have them do on every farm on which a small flock Is kept They will do this work In handsome fashion. The little paddocks around the barn, the lanes leading back Into the farm, the grass rims beside strips of forest and all the corners and cran nies about the wholo farm they will trim up as though they were trying to prepare a lawn If they are only given access to them at the proper season. Of course they must be allowed to graze these places closely. Such a flock of sheep would more than pay their way by the weeds end weed seeds that they would destroy. And while being thus fed they would keep In the pink of condition, since they are being furnished with just the kinds of food suited to their needs. OASTORXA. Bean tho t Kind You Have Always BougM.
