Hard Times lor Htoiekeeper*.
After mentioning a proposition made
by one of tbe speaker* at the great
convention of Woman’s Clubs at Mil¬
waukee for the training of young worn-
“ ,-en for domestic service, tho Evening
Post says:
Auother speaker amnaed the andl-
enee with the remark, Immediately fol¬
lowing this statement, “First catch
your hare. It Is all very well to talk
about educating girls for service, but
my experience Is that there are no
more girls left to be educated.”
The speaker went on to explain that
she came from a large city In central
Ohio, and that the aupply of glria In
that town wag wholly disproportionate
to the demand. Housekeepers were
left often two nnd three months nt a
time without any sort of helpers,
though both love aud money were free-
ly offered.
Other speakers eorrolinted this state¬
ment with n rapidity and earnestness
thnt bespoke bitter personal expert- !
cnee. “In the little village where I
live,” said one, “nine families In one
street are taking their meals at a tenth
house, where a widow and two daugh¬
ters, forced to earn their owu living,
do the household work. A few of. us
still hnve old servnnts. but when they
die, as they must, In course of time,
we shail Join the profession of ‘meal¬
ers.’ ”

"A man who wishes to sell your Ma¬

Chamberlain in a loud voice.
King Midas started from his soft,
Oriental couch.
“Has the man a large black mous¬
tache, and does he wear a silk hat with
a very broad brim?” he eagerly asked.
“Yes, your Majesty,” the Chamber¬
lain replied, bowing low.
“Admit him!” commanded the King.
Then, turning to his courtiers with a
smile, the first they had seen upon his
visage In years, he snld:

SASAT1ES AND KLUITJES.
Queer Diskea that the Boer* Are Food ol
Eailsf.
The Instinct of good feeling Is Inher¬
ent In the Boor character. In a great
muny eases it Is Impossible for him to
indulge bis predilection because of bis
poverty, bis isolation from markets
und the scarcity of provisions.
But If he has the opportunity he
feeds well and often; certainly far bet¬
ter than a man In a like position In
England. This must not be taken,
however, ns typical of the average
country Boer, but rather of the domes¬
tic arrangements of the better class,
ediicstod Pretoria officials and the Use.
They are very fond of sweetmeats In
every shape nnd form, and are exceed¬
ingly clever at home-made preserves.
Tangerines or naartjes are a very com¬
mon fruit, and a preserve called
“naartje comfyt” Is quite excellent.
The fruit is preserved whole with su-
gnr nnd syrup, and hns nn exquisite
aroma peculiarly Its own. There Is nn
excellent kind of rake called "moss
belletjes," made of grapes or raisins
and "moss,” which Is (he Juice of the
grape In Its first stages of fermenta¬
tion. During the wlne-mnkfng season,
In parts of tin* Cape Colony, this Is
commonly used Instead of yeast by the
country folks for buns and such like.
An old Dutch sweetmeat Is called
“koeslsters," and Is made of flour, su¬
gar, spices, eggs, butter aud yeast.
They Their are dipped In syrup nnd dried.
particular excellence lies In the
fact that If they are properly made
they will keep for months. “Honing
koek" Is Just honey cake, and I* very
sweet nnd rich; It Is flavored with
brandy, and Is not unlike the French
pain d’eplces. “Mebos" Is n very com¬
mon and universally appreciated prep¬
aration of dried and salted apricots.
They arc dried In the hot sun, then
flattened out nnd the stone extracted,
crystallized sugar and salt are sprink¬
led over them, amt they are then stored
for winter use. Many people deelnro
that “mebos” is nn efficacious remedy
for seasickness. “Ilys klultjes" are
simple rl(>c dumplings, which are usu¬
ally eaten with curry or with boiled
corned beef, and they form cel-
lent accompaniment to sweet po^hjcn,
Which are ft luxury In themselves.
A very excellent form of ehicken pft
Is called “ouderwotze pastel.” It Is an
elaborate sort of dish, with spices, on¬
ions, wine, lemon, eggs and bam. It
Is, however, exceedingly toothsome,
and might with advantage be added to
an English bill of fare. A typical Boer
dlsli Is called “snsatles," or “kabobs,"
and Is probably derived from a Malay
origin. This consists of a leg of mut¬
ton cut up Into little squares, fried,
curried nnd then grilled on skewers.
It may, perhaps, somewhat suggest the
homely eat's-meat, but it Is very good,
Indeed, nnd there Is a great deal of lo¬
cal color about this most appetizing
dish.
“Swnrtzulr” Is made of ribs of mut¬
ton with spices and tamarinds. Some
old recipes recommend tbe use of tho
blood of a duck instead of tamarinds.
A favorite sweet Is “tnmelettjes,”
which Is principally sugar flavored
with almouds and tangerine peel.
"Zoete koekles” are tea biscuits, rather
sweet and rich. A pecullnr Ingredient
In their composition, according to our
Mens, is sheep-tall fnt.
In South Africa there Is a peculiar
breed of sheep with broad, fat tails,
which make excellent soup, and which
are also used for other delicacies, ns
lu the above-mentioned “cookies.”
Blntjnng is a hot condiment mndo
with chillies, and Is an extremely
agreenlile adjunct to cold ment. "Bo-
botee" Is a species of Indian curry,
nnd “brood klultjes” are bread dump¬
lings, which are served with soup or
stewed chickens.
“BoontJ«s bredee” Is a dry bean
•tew. A "bredee” Is a sort of stew In
which anything may be put with nd-
vnntnge; quinces, for Instnnec, or to-
mntoes. Iu some parts of South
Africa It Is enllcd “brady,” but “bre¬
dee" Is tho correct Dutch spelling.
“Gesmoorde hoender" sounds rather
appalling, but it Is nothing more than
chicken fried with onions, spice and
chillies. “YVcntel JeoftJee” nre a sort
of pancake, but crisper and more fla¬
vorsome. "Wafels" are wafers, such
ns one gets In Switzerland aud some
parts of France.
The most typically Boer food of all
Is purposely left until the last. This is
“biltong,’’ the provender of the Boer
on the veldt, nnd the most sustaining
form of dried meat ever Invented. The
beef or venison must be cut from out
the hind leg of the animal, from the
thigh bone down to the knee joint. It
Is salted, saltpetred, pressed and dried
In the sun and the wind. It will keep
any length of time, and for eating It Is
shredded with a pocket knife.
It would seem the very irony of fate
for a man to reach the age of 100 years
nnd then die by accident. Just such
a sad occurrence took place In Minne¬
apolis n few days since.

A LAST CALL
UPON CHINESE
This Government Sends An “Ur*
gent” Message to Emperor.
IS PRACTICALLY A DEMAND
rf
It Urge* That Attacks On Leg**
gations Cease and That Impe¬
rial Government Assist In
Their Protection.
A dispatch has boon sent to the Chi¬
nese government through Minister
Wu insisting that ttie firing on the
legations cease, and that the imperial
government, if it desires to show its
friendliness, shall co-operate with the
relieving column. In this matter tho
government has proceeded on the as¬
sumption Hint the impcriul government
is willing to do all it can to aid in re¬
lieving the ministers.
The dispatch is signed by Assistant
Secretary Adce and is as follows:
‘‘We are nvailiDg ourselves of the
opportunity offered by tho imperial
edict of tho 5th of August allowing to
tho foreign ministers free communica¬
tion with their respective governments
in cipher, and have sent a communica¬
tion to Minister Conger to which we
awuit an answer. We nre already ad¬
vised by him, in a brief dispatch re¬
ceived August 7th, that imperial
troops are firing daily upon the min¬
isters in Pekin. We demand the im¬
mediate cessation of hostile attacks by
imperial troops upon the legations,
and urge the exercise of every power
and energy of the imperial govern¬
ment for the protection of the lega-
tiouers and all foreigners therein.
“Wo aro advised by the same dis¬
patch from Minister Conger that in
his opinion for tho foreign ministers
to leave Pekin as proposed in the edict
of August 2d, would be certain death.
In view of the fact that the imperial
troops nre now firing on the legations,
nnd in view of the doubt expressed by
the imperial government in its edict of
August 2d ns to its power to restore
order and secure absolute safety in
Pekin, it is evident that this appre¬
hension is well founded, for if your
government cannot protect our minis¬
ter in Pokin it will presumptively bo
uunble to protect him upon u journey
from Pekin to the coast.
“We therefore nrge upon the impe¬
rial government that i^shall adopt the
course suggested in tho third clause of
the letter of the president to his majes¬
ty, the emperor of China, of July 23,
1000, and enter into communication
with the relief expedition so that co¬
operation may be secured between
them for the liberation of tho lega¬
tions, the protection of foreigners and
the restoration of order. Such an ao-
tion on the part of tho imperial gov¬
ernment would be a satisfactory dem¬
onstration of its friendship and desire
to attain the onds.
(Signed.) Alvf.y A. Adee,
Tho state department made public
the text of the note Thursday. Its
contents were accurately forecasted in
the Associated Press dispatches sent
on Wednesday night. It practically
is a demand for complete compliance
with tho terms of the letter of the
president to the emperor of China,
sent July 23. of
It acknowledges the receipt the
edict allowing free communication
with the mombers an’d virtually serves
a notice on the imperial authorities
that their good faith in issuing it is to
be tested by a cipher despatch which
has been sent to MinisterCouger. The
strangest part of the note is embraced
in the demand for the immediate and
complete cessation of the attacking
imperial troops upon the legationers.
The note is not at all bellicose in
tone, and its temper is generally com¬
mended ns the best method of tisiug
the professed friendship of the impe¬
rial authorities to save the legationers.
The demand for the immediate ces¬
sation of the attack on legations is
stern and emphatic but the word “de¬
mand" gives way to “nrge” when the
imperial government is requested to
plaoe itself in friendly communication
with the advancing allies.

Cuinea Pifr Farm Ruh By a Woman.
Milk la the only liquid that guinea
pigs drink. Till* Is the testimony of
a Philadelphia woman who has a farm i
of alx hundred guinea pigs in that city.
The proprietor of this unique establish-;
ment supplies the pigs for inoculative
and scientific experiments to the Hoard
of Health, universities, colleges, hospi¬
tals nnd physlelnn*.
“The little anfmnls are peculiar In
their habits, and need constant care
and attention," says this woman.
"They are extremely nervous, a«(l a
sudden Jnr or unexpected noise Is lia¬
ble to kill them. A single thunder
shower will sometimes injure great
numbers, and perhaps kill eight or
_
ten of them. As I raise them strictly
for the use of their blood, which must
| lie absolutely pure, I feed them only
such vegetables as are conducive to
Hint result. Beets, carrots, apples,
green peas, oats, hay and grass consti¬
tute their chief diet, with now and
then a little cabbage for a relish. They
are extremely susceptible to heat and
cold, nnd during these hot days it takes
moRt of my time to regulate the tem¬
perature of their cages. Although
they are so tiny their average weight
Is from five to seven pounds. Con¬
sidering their size they require a good
deal of food. The average age of the
little fellows Is two years. After that
they become sickly.”

Gentility in Laundry Work.
“There is one tiling,” said the board¬
inghouse keeper, "that these people
who are getting up the Working Wom¬
en’s Hotel will be pretty sure to over¬
look, and that is a laundry where the
boarders may do their own washing.
When a woman has to practice econo¬
my—and you may be sure most of
them do who work for their living-
the first thing she seems to think about
Is cutting down her washerwoman’s
bill.
“I lost one of the best-dressed board¬
ers I ever had by telling her, when I
went Into her roonj one day and saw a
stout twine stretched across It, cover¬
ed with clothe* that had been hung
up to dry, that that wouldn't do; if 1
was going to put up with such as that
I might as well nlove down to Avenue
B at once, And there was another
boarder I had, one who sported a seal¬
skin jacket on the street, and was ah
ways telling me I ought to keep mote
servants; well, when I came across her
one day washing out a lot of things in
the bathroom, I said to her: ‘I never
expected to find you doing your own
washing.’ ‘I ain’t washing these
things,’ said she, ‘I am only bathing
them.' Maybe she could see the dlf-
ference, but I couldn t.
“Washing hard work? Not n bit of
lt if anybody has got the strength to
go at It the right way, and it's recre-
ation for those who don’t go out much
In the evening, and don’t care for read-
lng. You may not believe It, but
therc’s lots of women taking In wash-
ing here In New York City who have
worn silk and sealskin In their day.
When a man dies without making any
provision for his family, and his widow
don't know enough to run a boarding-
house, sewing mao.iine, ,
or even a
there don’t seem to be anything left
for her to do but to take in washing
in order to keep home for her chll- ...
a
dren. Of course, though, while there
Is oue laundress of this kind, there are
dozens and hundreds who are seeing
their best days right now.
"One of this sort was washing
blankets for me yesterday, and she
grumbled like anything because I
wouldn’t send out for beer for her.
She had a good place at one Of the
uptown hotels, where she was getting
$12 a month and three meals a day,
with all the tea nnd coffee she could
drink, ’ and nothing to do but plain
washing; but she left ,,, , because they ,.
wouldn't furnish her with beer. She
isn’t doing any regular work just now,
having left her last place because her
hands were badly chapped through
not taking proper care of them. They
are well again now, and she is looking
out for another situation.”—New York

TALLEST OF LIV1N0 MEN.
Eeroptso Scientist* Are Interested In t
Resident of Minnesota.
The biggest living man is Lewis Wil¬
kins, who Is now arousing great inter¬
est in the scientific circles of Europe.
Wilkins was born on a farm near St.
Paul, Minn., in 1874. When he was
but ten years of age he measured six
feet In height and now has grown
to the tremendous height of 107 1-4
inches—Just three-quarters of an Inch
less than nine feet—and weighs 304
pounds.
There have been other toll men and
women before Wilkins - and BClent ‘ sts
have striven In vain to account for
thege freakg of nHture . omy lately
a plausible story has been put for-
ward by a French physician, Hr.
Marie, who says that giantism Is noth-
lng more or less than a disease. This
disease generally occurs In patients be¬
tween the age of eighteen and thirty-
five and is first called “acromegaly”
(from two Greek words meaning “en-
largement of the extremities”). If the
patient Is not attacked until after he
<* eighteen the ends of the bones in
the arms and legs are enlarged and
prolonged ^ slightly, but If this disease
tttaoked a cWM at or soon after
(, lrth g| gan tlsm is the result. The
ij 0neg are prolonged all along their
length, grow unnaturally and the re-
suit is a giant.
When you see a big man it Is there-
fore a question whether he is unusually
gtrong or whether he Is a sufferer from
acrom( ,gf,.|y. All giants have not been
acromegalic, according to Dr. Marie.
He mentions two giants in the French
army who did not belong to this class.
One was Charles Freut, a cavalry sol¬
dier, who was six feet eleven inches,
and another was Marnat, a drum ma¬
jor lu the Nineteenth Regiment of In¬
fantry, who measured six feet nine
Inches.
Perhaps the greatest giant who ever
lived before Wilkins was Charles
Byrne, an Irishman. Ho measured nine
feet two inches. His skeleton is still
preserved, proving beyond question his
enormous size. He was probably ac-
romegalic.
Other giants are Constantine, born
at Zurich, In Switzerland, eight feet
one Inch; Herold, born at Lelpsic, sev¬
en feet five Inches, and Lady Emma,
eight feet one inch.—Golden Penny.
French Daintiness.
A Frenchwoman makes her toilet at
night as carefully as If she were going
to a reception instead of to bed. Wheth¬
er she be old or young, a well-bred
daughter of France brushes and ar¬
ranges her hair, cleans her teeth, rinses
her mouth with some pleasant antisep¬
tic wash, dons a beribboned and lace-
frllled nightdress and prepares herself
for sleep with the care and deliberation
of a girl attiring herself for her first
hall.

She Was Hired on the Spot.
A young woman recently answered
an advertisement for a dining room
girl, and the lady of the house Reem-
ecj pleased with her. But before en¬
gaging her there were some questions
to ask.
“Suppose,” said~tne lady—“now, only
suppose, understand-that you were
carrrying a piece of steak from the
kitchen, and by accident should let it
slip from the plate to the.floor, what
would do do in such a case?”
The girl looked the lady square in
the eyes for a moment before asking,
“Is it a private family, or are there
boarders?”
“Boarders,” answered the lady.
“Pick it up and put it back on the
plate,” firmly replied the girl.
She was engaged.
Beeswax From the Qulf s Bottom.
Mr. P. J. McNeel, of High Island,
made an unusual find on the beach at
that point a few days ago which made
him a richer man by several dollars.
The beach for several yards was
strewn with beeswax, aggregating
about five hundred pounds In weight.
It seems that about forty-six years ago
a Spanish vessel, bound from some
Mexican port to New York,sank in the
Gulf about one hundred miles off High
Island coast. Part of her cargo was
beeswax and, after remaining at the
bottom of the ocean for nearly half a
century. It finally drifted ashore. The
wax was in fine condition, and Mr. Mc¬
Neel found little difficulty In dosposing
of it at a good figure.
