There is no better illustra tion of this old saying than the numerous schools now-a-days devoted to practical kitchen processes. These schools have been acrt to find a reasonable substitute for lard, the use of which i s so generally-condemned. This want has been fully met by 1 the new vegetable Lard. When science strikes the kitchen, it strikes home and everybody gets the benefit. Cottolene is a clean, deli cate and economical substi tute for Lard cleaner than . the hog, delicate as the fin est vegetable oil, economi cal from its low price and small quantity required to be used.

A Camp of Soldiers Saved by a Gypsy's Knowledce of Mature. People who spend much of their lives out of doors, particularly in the coun try, . sometimes develop powers of ob servation and deduction that seem lit tle short of marvelous to men of indoor habits.. During the Austro-Prussian war of 1806, when Archduke Joseph of Austria and his corps were, retreating before the advance of the! Prussians, they encamped one day near a Bohe mian town, and the archduke was lodged in a cottage. At about twelve o'clock at night the archduke's adjutant reported that a gypsy soldier wished to see him on a matter of importance. On being admitted to the archduke's presence, the gypsy announced that the enemy was approaching, and when asked how he knew, he took the arch duke to the door, and pointing to sev eral birds flying over a wood at some distance, he said: 4 'Birds sleep as well as people, and these birds would not be flying about at this time of night if they had not been disturbed. The enemy is march ing through, the woods, and has fright ened them." ' Relying on the gypsy soldier's knowl edge, the archduke commanded that an alarm be given at once. An hour later the outposts were fighting with the Prussian soldiers. The camp was saved, thanks to the quick observation of the gypsy. Domestic Dialect. There are many ' wonderful dialects in existence, as readers of modern lit erature, says Harper's Magazine, have doubtless by this time discovered. One of these, which has not been touched upon, to any - considerable extent, is what might be called the suburban do mestic dialect that used by servants in rural communities in the daily rou tine of housework. Several instances of the inspiring qualities of this have. come to hand. A suburbanite was greeted one winter's morning as ho en tered his dining room with this choice specimen: "Mr. J , the colt has frizz the pipes. They've bust and the cellar s all afloat. The same domestic, while cleaning np in a hallway adjoining tho library in which her employer was engaged in writing, thinking that he might prefer not to witness the operation of polish ing up the floor, entered the room and said: "Mr. J , do you want the ;door cluz or the curtains drew?" : ;A' horse kicked H. S. Shafer, of the Freemyre House, Middleburg, K. Y. on the knee, which laid him up in bed and caused the knee joint to become stiff, a triena recommended lnm to use Chamberlain's Pain Balm, which he did, and in two days was able to be around.
