The clerk lived alone in a shabby com bined room o ff the em bankm ent. The flower g ir l shared a garret w ith a sister vendor in a court at Stepney. The day was hot. Th e streets threw up clouds o f dust. The g irl saw the clerk m aking his w ay rapidly. Between the m u ltip lic ity o f human shoulders she caught in term itten t glimpses o f a scarlet geranium. A s he passed she noted that some o f the petals w ere missing, and that the green leaf curled at the edges. H e nodded to her. She sm iled at the fading posy. H e looked back as he stepped onto the opposite curb. She was blushing. • • • • • • • I t was s dense fo g; moreover, it was rain ing. Through the m ire and drizzle Jack Fabert trudged along. “ A n y stephanotis today, N ellie?” he asked, suddenly halting. It was only tiie m orning before that he had learned her name. “ Y es,” she answered, peering into her basket. H e watched her baud grope among the flowers. I t was small, but red. H e pitted it. H e dropped the penny among the flowers and went on his way to dot up figures. The rain continued, and the m ire thick ened. U m brellas and mackintoshes streamed by in monotonous succession. N obody wanted nosegays. Everybody wanted to get away from the weather. Some one accosted her a fter midday, “ A nother flower, please.” She looked up at the unexpected cus tomer. It was the clerk. “ W h ere’s the stephanotis?” she asked. “ G ot crushed; withered np somehow.” “ W ill this do?” bolding up a rosebud. “ Yes.

She watched his umbrella u ntil it g ot too mixed w ith others to be recognizable; then she looked fo r the penny. It glittered brigh tly among the moss and fern—very brightly. “ A sh illin g!” she murmured. The girl lanced excitedly round for his umbrella. t was quite lost to sight. “ H e’s made a mistake.

The clerk raised his j eyee instinctively. H e had reached Char j ing Cross corner. i “ Nelli©!” he cried. The flower g irl was standing in the old laoe, a bunch o f red berries in her haud. | he smiled at him —a little wan smile. “ You have been ill? ” he questioned. In ' the gaslight her face was sta rtlin gly white, and her eyes shone brilliantly. “ Yea,” she answered. Th e snowflakes , elung to her hair and to the flim sy shawl on her shoulders. “ I spent the sh illing,” she said slowly. H is heart thumped unevenly. H e looked down at the berrioa. “ Thank you, N ellie .” ! She fum bled in the pocket o f her apron. “ I ’ve earned it back today. W ill you count ’em?” H e gazed stupidly at the heap o f coppers held out to him. “ T-the rosebud was w orth the money,” he cried. “ I t wasn’ t. Y ou were good to me.

For a few moments he beut over her. W hen he raised hi* head, she was softly crying. He stroked the thin little hand — almost white now—and smiled. A warm flush had crept into her face.

A H e a r t f e lt W is h . » to Health, Vigor, H r .n t j and Complexion. Th e m ajority o f people bathe w ith a view to com fort and cleanliness w ithout much thought o f the relations o f regular ablu tions to the preservation o f health and goo$ looks. In olden times there existed the Idea that too frequent bathing o f the face and neck injured the skin. N o w the gen eral belief is that the beauty o f the skin cannot be preserved unless its pores are kept w e ll open. P roo f o f this Is readily seen by observation am ong people who bathe infrequently and insufficiently. A good complexion is almost unknown among them, and although im proper food and im pure a ir do their sham iu m uddying and thickening the skin its unhealthy appear ance ia largoly due to that clo ggin g o f the pore9 which prevents their carrying o ff as they should the waste m atter o f the system. Th e tem perature o f tho bath is a mooted questiou. T o some persons there is nothing more b;acing and invigorating than a cold plunge, w hile others do not recover for hours from the ch ill such a bath gives. Cer tain physicians recommend a very hot bath and assert th at it is as stim ulating in its a fter effects as is the cold plunge and less lik e ly to produce ill effects. N early all unite in declaring immersion in the tepid bath relaxing And thus detrim ental to health. Th e question is one that each bath er must settle fo r herself. W h a t suits one m ay be positively harm ful to another. Cer tain it is th at the hot or w arm bath is more cleansing than cold wAter. Th e sudden ch ill o f tne latter closes the pore* and pre vents the escape o f the effete m atter it is the object o f the bath to remove. The wom an who takes a cold plunge fo r its aft er effects should first sponge herself off in w arm w ater and achieve cleanliness before she indulges herself in her “ bracer,” says a w riter in H arper’s Bazar, who odds: W hoever feels a ch illy sensation a fter a w arm plunge and experiences difficulty in regaining a normal temperature should try the experim ent o f sponging o ff w ith cold w ater when leaving the hot bath and see I f tlfe sligh t shook w ill not tone up the skin and prevent any subsequent chill. The beneficial effect o f a bath is greatly height ened by a hard rubbiilg after leaving it. A rather coarse or rough Turkish tow el should be used, and the friction should not be stopped when the moisture has been re m oved, but continued until the body is in a g lo w from head to foot. This operation w ill only require a few moments, and it is w ell w orth the trouble, f The best tim e for tak ing the bath must, lik e its temperature, be decided by individ ual preferences. Some persons find a bath taken late at night most soothing; to oth ers it is provocative o f insomnia. The early ■morning bath is sometimes fatigu ing to delicate persons, w hile to others It seiwt» as a tonic and is In its stim ulating and re freshing qualities as valuable aa an extra hour’s sleep.

W b s t Makes Danish B a tter ths Boat In t h s W o rld . I found a t Copenhagen tw o pieces o f dairy apparatus which are not generally knewn to our Am erican dairymen, and which I find in every w ell appointed d airy in Denmark. One ia the L a w rence m ilk cooler, and the other la a con trivance fo r heating the m ilk or cream to a temperature w hich kills all o r near ly all bacteria which it may contain. This process is here called “ pasteuriza tion,'’ after the great French scientist, who first called attention to this prac tical method o f k illin g injurious bac teria. The m ilk cooler is a hollow metal plate, w ith corrugated sides. It is about an inch thick and o f any size, though usually about tw o feet square. I t stands on edge, w ith the corrugation running horizontally. A stream o f ice w ater rubs through the inside o f the plate, back and forth in a zigzag course, w hile the cream o r m ilk is poured into a little trongh w ith many fine holes in a ro w along the bottom, which is placed on ths upper edge o f the cooler, and from which it spreads in thin sheets over both sides o f the cooler, as it slowly moves to the bottom. It has the great advantage that it is easily cleaned, since the sides are not covered. There are other forms o f coolers, but in those 1 have so fa r seen the principle is the same. This cooler is in general use when the cream is to be cooled rapidly to any desired temperature. The prin cipleof the "pasteurising” ap paratus is equully simple. Steam is let In between the double w alls o f a small barrel shaped tank or rebervoir, which contains the cream or milk, and it is so arranged that the cream runs into the machine in a constant stream and out again at the same rate after having a t tained the desired temperature. A thermometer in the discharge pipe tells how hot it is, and the heat is regu lated by admitting more or less steam through the valvo on the steam pipe. This, too, is found ia every dairy worthy of the name, and it is considered well nigh indispensable when a fine grade o f butter is aimed at. It is essential when an artificially prepared pure ferm ent is used for the cream, as it then become« necessary to k ill all other bacteria the cream may contain before it is added. And this brings me to that point In their dairy p ra c ti«» which above all oth ers places the Danes ahead o f the rest o f the world, and which is perhaps the leading secret o f the uniform ly good quality o f their butter. Pure cultures o f cream ferments are in common use in all good dairies. I shall not now at tempt to describe in detail what a “ pure culture” is further than to say that it consists of bacteria, which in causing the fermentation o f the cream give the de sired flavor and character to the butter, and which have been isolated and artifi cially cultivated. These ' ‘pure cultures” are offered fo r sale by tw o or three laboratories, and they have met w ith the practical «lairy- man'e approval, who, as stated, makes nae o f them in his dally practice. This pure culture is used as a starter in skim- m ilk at a given temperature, and when fermented this is again used as a starter for the cream. —R eport o f Professor C. C.
