The use of mustard powdered in its resent form, for making into a paste, riginated in Durham, about the year 1720, where It was prepared on a all scale by an old lady named Mrs. Clements, who kept the secret f its manufacture to herself-grind ing the seed in a mill, and sifting it -for several years. She used to travel twice a year to London and the principal towns In England to e orders, and from this arose the e and fame sof "Durham Mus rd," but the best and finest quali w made are the genuine Im and D.

The result is, that the best makes f English mustard are popular all e world over, and that more Eng made mustard is now exported a single year than there is of for ,eign maufactured mustards imported (in twenty years. But although a mustard may be pmade from ground white seed prin V cipally, and even kept good for a fair )length of time, also be sold at low .-price, yet such mustard is necessarily r ery deficient in true piquant flavor, )ecause It is the brown or black seed nly which possesses the volatile my onlc oil, yielding this esteemed fla kor. . Ground mustard made from dark :/seed with this oil left in will not keep good long, owing to variations in temperature and exposure to air.

Hence also, by reason of manufac turers mixing the two kinds of seed, ~or although the white seed pos esses very little pungency, yet it has ithin it the peculiar ferment which ~evelops the pungent flavor of the lack, and therefore the art of pro :ucing the best mustards seems to ,epend on the judicious .mixture of -he proper proportions. Most of the dnglish makers now sell two classes ~of mustards, one comprising mustards pf different qualities, but all pure, .pnd the other classes a set of mix 7tures, called mustard compounds of various strengths. The best mixed 'mustards now preferred by the con sumers are really stronger than many gades of the pure mustards, and are ostly made of brown seed, and in which the oil is neutralized or ab sorbed by the other ingredients our, etc.--which has -in face been virtually done in the government ard at Deptford, where rice, flour, epper and capsicums have been al is used.

For the information of those wh< have never been in battle, let me say without seeming didactic, that the commanding general or his corp: commanders are rarely where the art ists have depicted them, on rearing horses leading or directing amid a sheet of fire. There are t!mes, how ever, when the artist Is true to life as when Sheridan seeing Ayres and his regulars recoiling for a momeni under terrific fire at Five Forks dashed in, and there and then witi those flashing eyes he might have been painted; Warren that same day seized the colors on another part o: the field, and led on. But, as a rule the corps commander chooses a po sition where he can see all the field and his troops as they engage. The test of his genius Is In choosing the ,ritical moment when he will joi them. Suppose McClellan had showi himself and ridden his lines a Gaines' Mill, or. Bragg at Chicka mauga, the outcome might have been different. Owing to the character of the Wilderness, Grant had few chances to seize opportunities of thai kind. At Spottsylvania, the nigh1 Upton was making his assault and breaking their lines temporarily, he was close up, and I sat my horse noi far from him. He was mounted on Egypt, there were two or three lines of battle within thirty or forty paces of each other and of him. The fire that reached us was considerable; ar orderly carrying the headquarter standard was killed and a solid sho1 struck an oak five or six inches through squarely, not thirty feel from us, shivering it into broom sliv ers; but through it all Grant wore the same iniperturbable but somewha1 pleading face.-Atlantic. Railroad Expenses. The cost of many important article! of supply used by the railways has increased more than 100 per cent Fuel for locomotives constitute about eleven per cent. of the cost of railway operation. Owing to the increased price of coal during the last ten years, which in some States has amounted to a! uch as fifty-six per cent., it is as erted that for $1 spent for locomo ive fuel in 1897 for each $17.25 ol ross receipts the ratio has declinec n 1907 to $1 for locomo~tive fuel foi ach $12.93 of gross receipts.. The expense of taxation is shown tc ave increased from $235.36 a milE f line in 1897 to $353.09 a mile o1 ine in 1907, over fifty per cent. The ost of regulation, both State and lational, which is classified akin tc axation, has also added greatly to thE xpense of .the carriers. A conservative computation dis. loses that the costs due to increases n expenses or reductions in reveuw mposed by statutes or by commis sions acting under Federal and StatE regulatory laws cost the railways oj he United States approximatell $100,000,000 per annum.-Freight.

AND DISEASE. f Mankind, Each Pre tain Maladies. bles and apoplexy. The regimen bes adapted to ward off these maladies i| a restricted diet, especially as regard: lesh food, avoidance of alcoholic bev rages, and the drinking of plenty o pure water to wash away waste ma terials. Persons of the bilious tempera ment are prone to diseases of thi liver, gall-stones, intestinal indiges tion and constipation. They are largi consumers of food, but derive littli enjoyment from eating. They ar4 often much benefited by a course o dieting and consumption of minera w~atrs, after the plan developed to high degree by the German waterini place physicians. The strumous-.type is l'ess distinctl: a tempe'rment than an actual ten dency t.o disease.

In every high school there should hi be a vocation-teacher, whose duties gi might be briefly outlined as follows: Before the opening of school every new pupil must have a private inter view with the vocation-teacher on the d< subject of his ideas for..the future. so Some have a pretty definite idea of . what they want to do. If their tal ents agree with their desires, the vo cation-teacher gives them permission to elect the courses that will put them on the right track. If as is so often 11 the case, the new pupil has no idea I of his wants or capabilities, the vo cation-teacher tries, by questtioning and experiment, to assist 1.he pupil in.-t coming to some decision and. getting c upon the right track. If for any rea-: t son a decision is temporarily impos sible, the pupil is given a selection of courses designed to be of some prac tical value in any line he may after wards take up. When the g.ctual school work is Iunder way, the vocation-teacher keeps j in close touch with every pupil by means of continued personal inter views, in which the pupil's increasing ~ interest or growing distaste, as the case may be, are discovered. Be- y sides this, written reports of progress t4 and expressions of opinion are due at regular intervals from the pupil. When the pupil is losing interest, the vocation-teacher may order a new choice of courses; he may even advise 'o the pupil's transfer to an entirely dif- d ferent kind of school.' This super- 'a 4vision is to follow' the Nupil closely through the whole course.-The At- u 1.antic.a Tensile Strength of Hair. A human hair of average thickness aan support a load of six and one- n quarter ounces, and the average num iber of hairs on the head is about 30,- i! 000. A woman's long hair has a total Ii ftensile strength of more than five s5 tons, and this strength can be in [creased one-third by twisting the hair. a The ancients made practical use of a the strength of the human hair.

Ainesiean women have the repmta tin ef b g reetlese gadabbets, not perbp5 without having given grounds for the accusation; but there's one American woman who is a home stayer a( the most chronic tye. -Mrs. Kate Walker has lived in the lighthouse on Robbins reef for twen ty-three years, and the number doesn't have any mystic significance imply ing an impending departure either. .For fourteen of those years, ever since her husband's death, she her self has been keeper of the light. Robbins reef is a ledge a cile or so north of Staten Island on the port sede as you sail up the bay. You reach Mrs. Walker's home by scram bling up an iron lader after you bave reached the spot-that is all it Is, a spot-by boat. As that is the only means of reaching Mrs. Walker's establishmont it is easy to understand that it isn't a rush of visitors that keeps her at home. She not only has the light to main tain-and she has never once falled in that--but there are also a siren -run by an engine and a tog beRl, both of which must be kept going in thick weather. Mrs. Walker takes a long nap in the aiternoon so as to keep on the alert at night. The machinery regulating the light, which is a re Yolving one, has to be wound every fire hours. She says that the light is never of her mind at night, and that even when she sleeps she wakes up every hour.

A discovery of great interest was made not long since at Pompeii, where the excavation work Is being steadily carried on. Under the ash deposits, says The Scientific American, there was found, an extensive villa of a handsome construction and ornament ed. with very fine frescoes. The villa contains statues and other .works of sculpture both Greek and Roman, be sides very rich furniture which is well ornamented and alsof any vases of different kinds. There were also found coffers filled with gold and sil ver money. In the basement are great amphorae whkch 'were used for storage purposes. an(. in the triclhl lum the tables were prepared for a banquet of thirty persons. An abund ance of silverw'are is one of the fea tures of the discovery, and it is said to be equal ih weight and artistic character to the silverware discover ed in the villa; of Bosicoreale and now possessed by the Louvre.
