CUNNING OF THE LEFT HAND.
ao of the AdTs Pmm or

'Ambidextrous men and women, or
theme who can me either right or left
hand with equal facility, are not near
ly ao frequently met with aa might at
firat be supposed; in fact, they are
quite rare. This double faculty is, how
ever, much more frequently met with
among butchers and sailors than in any
other walks of life. Lef trhanded butch
ers are numerc to, as a walk through
any of our large market houses will
quickly demonstrate, but it is a very
interesting study to watch any of them
who will cut, chop, saw and handle his
meats withoa;nce changing it from one
side to the other on the block or chang
ing his own position.
In view of the many advantages de
rived from the ability to use both hands
equally well, many people have often
expressed surprise at the action of ed
ucational authorities in insisting on the
use of only the right hand, instead of
trying to develop an equal skill in the
other. They all stick to the rightrhand
od idea, however, and an old resident of
Frankford, noted for his ambidextrous
ness, is still mourning the loss of a prize
at school through the use of his left
hand in writing, although he was equal
ly skillful as a penman with his right.
The benefits derived from the use
of both hands were excellently illus
trated in the experience of two car
penters who lived In Frankford some
years ago. Their names were Cross and
Walton, and the former was right-handed,
the latter left-handed. As one was
also very tall and the other very short,
they made a curious couple, but they
always worked together laying floors
and putting up joiners' work in build
ings. They could take jobs of this character
cheaper than any other, because they
could work from either end toward
each other so handily. Cross would
square a floor board at one end and
Walton would "scribe" and cut it off
to fit at the other end and then nail
down, working together from opposite
ends.
Left-handed machinists are always
at a disadvantage, as machinery is in
variably adapted to people who work
right-handed, but the ambidextrous
man or woman is always at home in
whatever work is undertaken. -Philadelphia

WOMEN ON FARMS.
Exteat of tho Help Which New (
u land Wires Give.
F The women are true helpmeets. Not
only do they do their own work, but
they are able and willing to milk the
cows and assist with the hay-getting
and in other ways lend a hand out of
doors in emergencies. Some of them
even eke out the family income by little
ventures of their own, such as raising
hens and bees and gathering and mar
keting spruce gum, beechnuts and blue
berries. There is no servant-girl prob
lem, because there are no servants.
When sickness or some other real disa
bility necessitates female help in the
household a neighbor's daughter is
called in. She is, of course, regarded,
and in every minutest particular treat
ed, as a member of the family; it could
not be otherwise. The children are
trained to bear their share of the family
burden, so far as it can be done with
out interfering with their schooling,
and the very school terms are arranged
with a view to conflicting as little as
possible with farm work. When the
children grow up many of them go
out into the world to seek their for
. tunes (that, within reasonable limits,
is a law of nature), but there is nothing
like an exodus of the rising generation,
no approach to a depletion. Plenty of
ambitious, vigorous young men stny
behind to arrange themselves in life
ns their fathers did before them, chop
ping in the woods winters and tilliug
the few acres they have been able to
purchnfie with their winters' savings
summers. Furthermore, there nre
plenty of dcxirable young women happy
and proud to cast their lot in with the
young men and do their share of the
drudgery necessary to establishing a
home. Thus new farms are cleared
out of the woodland and the old farms
are kept up. Atlantic.

ONE ON HIM.
Am Order That He Had Neglected to
Obey.
"I had a queer experience with a
gripman on a Mount Auburn calble car
this morning," said a Fifth street eigar
dealer to a Cincinnati Tribune man.
"You know there is a sign in the car
which reads: 'Don't put your feet on
the seats,' or something to that effect.
Probably they were afraid that you
would scratch your shoes on the rough
seats. Anyhow, the sign's there.
"On the car there wus but one other
passenger, evidently a friend of the
gripman. He was sitting in the seat
next to the ofliciial, and the two enjoyed
a long and unlinated discussion con
cerning the system of transfers soon to
go into operation over the nsw exten
sion of the Oak street line. In a careless
way 1 had placed my foot upon the seat,
or rather my toe was against the edge,
but in no dun per of harming the wood
work. The gripman reached' over and
in an authoritative tone said:
'"YnusinuMttake yer feet off the seat.
See the sign? Them's our orders from
headquarters, and we must obey them.'
" 'Is that eo?1 said I. 'Do you obey
all the orders that are given out?'
" 'Sure,' said he.
" 'Whst's that order up there 7" said I.
"'Which r said be.
" 'That one that says: "Don't talk
to the gripman." You have been talk
ing to your friend for 15 minutes and
never once told him to stop talking to
you.'
"He looked dated for half a minute,
and then said:
" That's one on m, partner. Let'
saw wood, and say nothinv
"Theu I rested my feet in peace."

SOME SALADS.
Direction for Making a Few Which
Are Good.
The making of salads is a fine art,
and one in which the artist can find the
widest field for his fancy.
In large establishments the making of
salads does not devolve upon the cook,
but it should form e pert of the reper
toire of every good one, and is a neces
sary part of the culinary education of
every housekeeper.
The range of materials from which
salads can be made is great, as they are
made from fruite, vegetables, meats and
fish. ,
As the soup is intended to stimulate
the appetite at the commencement of a
dinner, so is a salad intended to spur it
on while the dinner is in progress and
the appetite flagging after the hard at
tack which has just been made upon
the roast or other loading dish.
Salads are of two generul kinds, the
hot and the cold, but the former have
almost gone out of vogue, as they do
not perform their intended fuiictionsas
perfectly as do cold salads.
The base of all salads is the dressing,
whioh. can be used on any of the many
salad fillers. The most popular and sci
entific is the mayonnaise, but it resem
bles the olive, in that one has to acquire
a taste for it, it properly made; but once
acquired, one will eat no other.
It takes two persons to make a good
mayonnaise, and the one who is to do
the stirring should have a strong ami.
Put the yolk of two large eggs in a
bowl, put three half-pints of best Span
ish olive oil in a filtering hopper, with
the tube corked to let the oil escupe
drop by drop into the dish. Begin to
stir with a hard wooden spoon as soon
as the oil begins to drop into the dish,
and never stop until the oil is all incor
porated with the egg. The second per
son should put iu at intervals, drop by
drop, tarragon vinegar to tasite. but use
the vinegar sparingly; also a little salt,
pepper and mustard, but these latter
must be used in the proper quantities
to suit the taste of the party you are to
serve.
If the above operation has been care
fully done you will have a good salad
dressing. It can be used as it is, or to
give flavor to a.ny of the many home
made dressings that many people pre
fer. The "French dressing," whioh is
much used in summer to dress fresh
vegetable salads, is a good, one, and
easily made, being mnde as used. Sim
ply combine salad oil, vinegar, mustard,
pepper, salt and a little celeiry powder
to suit your taste, or that of the party
served.
For spring and summer the green and
vegetable salads should be used. A
good, well blanched lettuce makes the
most relishable of all for a warm day.
When the lettuce comeB, pick apart, sav
ing the green leaves. Throw all in ice
water until brittle. Take out, drain and
wipe perfectly dry on soft towels. Put
on ice until wanted.
When ready to serve, line the salad
dish with 'the nicest of the green leaves.
The mayonnaise being ice cold should
be poured in a shallow dish. Dip each
blanched leaf in the dressing, and heop
in the center of the dish, pouring over
all what dressing remains. Cut thinly
sliced red beets into inch size stars, and
lay a row around on top, one inch from
edge. In the center put finely chopped
hard boiled egs, and serve.
The most dainty salad for a hidiea'
luncheon, or a ten, is made from aspara
gus tips. Rit.lu r fresh or canned aspar
agus ran le used. Cook un.til tender,
but do not l't. it get mushy. Drain, and
when cold put on the ice to pet hard.
Melt oiip tablesfioonful of butter to oil,
put in the same Viitnvtity of tanrngon
and cider vineg-nr, half a teaspoonful of
salt, a dash of white pepper, and n table
spoonful of French made mustard
Heat until quite thin.
The n-'-parnRus tips from the ice
should be dipped into this, Innd al
lowed to drain. Lot an inch at the butt
end of eiu'li tip remain free from dress
ing. When the dressing hardens on the
tis, put ugnin on the ice until wanted,
When ready to serve, cut inch strips of
white jmper, pud with flour pante cover
the but.t-ends with them, so they can be
handled without soiling a glove.
Serve the tips criss-cross fashion,
piled on a square plate. Should the
dressing not lmrdrn properly on a trial
tip, increase the quantity of butteir.

An amusing incident occurred in a
lunch room in this city a few days ago
The proprietor was out for a few min-
utes, leaving the lunch counterincharge
of a boy. Several customers were eat

strangers entered. They evidently mis
took the nature of the place us badly as
the boy appealed to mistake their
meaning. After glancing over the ar
ray of food and drink (the last being cof

asked:
"Say, boy, got any hard staff "neve?"

STORY OF A COLOR FAD.
How the Crase for Lilac Had Its Blrta
In Vienna.
Many years ago, in the days of her
radiant beauty, her imperial majesty,
Empress Elizabeth, of Austria, sat for
her portrait to Schrotzberg, a fashion
able Viennese artist. The picture, says
Munseys, was painted at the request of
the empress' royal cousin, Ludvrig II.
of Bavaria, and was destined to grace
the walls of his gallery of beautiful
women in Alunich. The artist recog
nized the importance of his commis
sion, and gave to the canvas all the skill
of his genius, which, in the matter of
color, had no equal in Germany. The
robe of the empress was of imperial
purple, of so marvelous a tint and so
wonderfully painted that it dimmed
even the charm of the sovereign lady's
matchless beauty. Artists tried in
vain to imitate it, pens to describe it,
and in time it came to be known as the
"historical lilac."
In the ballrooms of Vienna a tint
bearing the name of Kaiserilla is in
vogue, which is as near the shade of
purple in which Schrotzberg clothed his
beautiful empress as looms and pig
ments can make it. In this country lilac
has long been considered a color for
the middle-aged women, but now young
girls are taking a great fancy to it, and
the coming summer we are told will see
it a reigning tint. Max Nordeau may
be right in the theory that devotion to
violet is one of the surest signs of de
generacy, but the stylish woman of to
day would much prefer to be called
"degenerate" than "unstylish."
A COUNTRY OF SURPRISES.
Coal, Least, Sliver nd Tl in Sooth
Africa.
While there is little tloubt that with
proper development of i agricultural
awl pastoral resources South Africa
could be made practically self-eupport-ing,
the successful development of these
industries depends nevertheless upon
the creation of local markets through
tlie stimulus given by mining opera
tions, says the North American Koview.
VVit.h tlws exception of nihung of gold,
diamonds and coal there have been no
considerable exploitations of its min
eral resources. ConJ fortunately ex
ists in many purls of the country, ami it
has been estimated that the known coal
fields represent an area of 56,000 square
miles, which is equal in extent to the
state of Iowa. There exist in boiii.j
part of the country large deposits of
iron contiguous to the cool fields. But
as yet the economic conditions have
not favored the development of that in
dustry. Lead, silver, cinnabar, tin and
other metals are also found in many
parts of the country, but have not been
remuneratively worked. Among the
mining countries of South Africa the
Transvaal is facile princeps, and is in
ull probability destined to maintain it
arnmouut position, though, aa is well
nown, South Africa is "a country of
iii-prises," and it is possible, of course,
hough not prolxible, that within its
irreat extent other equally important
iuitricU may lie discovered.

The little Dutch
boy who slopped the
leak in the dike with
his finger saved his
country from over
whelming destruc
tion. You have read
about him in your
school realtors, how
he was walking along
the dike when he
heard a faint sound
of trickling water,
and knew at once that
a leak had sprung in that great embank
ment which saves Holland from the devas
tations of the hungry sea. It was early in
the night, and no one was near at hand.
The leak was small when he found it, but
he knew that the action of the water would
enlarge it long before morning, and wash
sway the entire embankment, inundate the
country and destroy his own and thou
sands of homes. So he bravely put his
finger in the crevasse, and kept it there all
the long night through, until help came and
the opening was properly stopped. He had
baved his country.
Kqually insignificant is the entrance of
disease into the human system. The be
ginnings of the most terrible ailments are
so small they can be easily stopped at the

out and stops the inroads of dangerous and
devastating disease. Whenever it breaks
down, no matter how slightly, there is uu
opening for disease to enter. If the open

THE HAN WITH THE HOE.
Say,
What's all this talk, any way.
About the man ith the hoe?
Don't he know
That the day
Of tbe hoe
Has passed away?
Hut him on a riding cultivator
And show him what greater
Agriculture means!
It seems
Homebody's wasting salt tears
Over the man with the hoe.
Well, you needn't.
Things are coming his way
To stay.
Do you see that cornfield?
Pretty fair yield
It'll makes
Hundred bushels or so an acre.
See those barnes with their sides bursting out?
See those stacks o' hay, about
As thick as you can Bet 'cm?
Yes, .and see the livestock,
H iln't that a nice array?
And, say
See the man,
The man with the hoe himself.
Well, all this
Is he.
You don't see the hoe?
Oh, no,
That's laid on the shelf
Long ago.
You can
Hardly see the man
For his smile.
He's all smile!
Do you know why
He has that twinkle iu his eye!
And why he wears thet grin?
It's because of what's in
His pockets cold, hard
Cash, and long green by the yard,
Ye, sir, and more of It at home.
Of course he unlles.
Yes, sir!
You needn't stir
Up any pathos about that fellow !
He's not seeking sympathy !
If you have tears to shed
Go shed
'Em on the turl where lies
The man who didn't advertise;
Go hunt up the man who knocks
Ag'ln enterprise.
And tries to block
The car of progress. But spare your weeps
Over the man who keeps
The soil laughing
And the world moving.
Go dry your eye
And stop your fuss,
And come back and smile
Awhile with us.
