Variety Of Useful Things.

From Miss Parlaa's New Cook Book.
The dishes on which meats, fish, jellies
and creams are placed should be large
enough to leave a margin of an inch or so
between the food and the lower edge of the
border of the dish.
It is we'll to pour the sauce for cold pud-
dings around the pudding, especially if
there will be contrast in color.
it is great improve nent to have the
sauce poured atornd he article instead of
over it, and 10 have he border OF the dish
garni- ned with bits of parsley, celery tops
or CAIRO. leaves.
When sauce Is poured around meat or
fish the dish mus be quite hot, or the
sauce will cool quickly.
Small rolls O: sticks o: b ead are served
with soup. Potatoes and b1ead are usually
served with fish, bot many people prefer t.
serve only bread. Butter is not served at
the more elegant dinners. Two vegetables
will be sufficient in any course. Cold dish
es should be very cold, and hot dishes
hot.
1t is a good idea to have dish of sliced
lemons for any kind of fish, and especially
for those broiled OF fried.

Be particular not to override the wo;k of dec
Grating. Even simple garnish ao3s much
10 the appearance Of a dish, but too much
decoration only iniures it. Garnishes
should be so arranged as not to intefere
with serving.
Potato balls and thin fried potatoes make
nice garnish for all kinds of fried and
h1oi1o6 n, 90 re- opH ficb
Thin slices of toast, cut into triangles,
make good garnish for many dishes.
Whipped cream is delicate garnish for
all Bavarian creams, blanc manges, frozen
puddings and ice creams.
Arrange aro,nd je'lies Of creams a bor-
der of any kind o. delicate green, like smi
lax or parsley, or O. rose leaves, and dot it
with bright colors-pinks, geraniums, YER
benas or roses. Remember that the green
should he dark and the flowers small and
bright. A bunch of artificial rose leaves,
for decorating dishes of fruit at evening
parties, lasts for years. Natural leaves are
preferable when they can be obtained.
Wild roses, buttercups and nasturtiums,
if not used too freely, are suitable for garn-
lshing salad.

In order that the line of succession to
the presidency Of the United States nav
always be complete, it is suggested that
each congress be required to organize on
the day in which it begins to exist. This
is practical suggestion. 1t need not entail
any additional cost upon the country. The
47th congress, for instance, began it's ex-
istence on the 4th of last March. Members
elect draw their salaries from that day. The
failure of the senate at the special session
to elect a president pro tempOre, was owing
to the equal division Of that body POLITICAL
ly, and while this may not occur again for
many years, it shows the import nee of
havinga speaker of the House in existence.
because the presidency of the United
States may devolve upon that official The
change suggested would put in new set
of House officials and employees at the be.
ginning OF the term of congress, instead of,
as now, permitting the old set to hold
over until the following December. 1t
would not increase the pay roll at all,
while it would keep in official existence
positions that are in the direct line of sue
cess:on to the presidency.

The First Eccurate Likeness of the Grea Chic

1he face. to any one who has ever seen a oux
chief. is str!kinrly characteristic. The high,
pointed. narrow forehead and the correspondingy
attenuated chin; the prominent cheek bones and
pronounced nose; the intent, wide open eyes, and,
more than all, the Mephistophelian mouth
conveying much of unbelief and
dstrust, all go to make the tout ensemble of the
intelligent, willy, scornfu, suspicious savage whose
harbarlsm has received only lacquer of repression
through attriton with civilized whites. The old
man is poor-that can De seen at a glance. Upon
his head are no waving plumes, save the indispen-
sable coup feather which droops as if in sympathy

age when his eyes "purging thick amber and
plum tree gum, and need the covering the lenses
afford AS before stated, he is swarthy of COM
plexion- remarkably dark in fact-and "age has
the continual troubles crowded into his
fingers" From coup feather to moccasin the
thorough savage has none the less made a m lrk
upon his time which many of greater note through
general chrlstendom have not effected.

The London Economist says that the
news of the assassination of President Gar
field has produced in public men in Europe
"a certain feeling of dependency or de-
spair as if government were confronted
with an insoluble problem, the protection
from the insane and the wicked of the men
engaged in carrying on government. Ex-
tracts from the foreign press show that
what might be called the secondary ina
preston of Guiteau's act have been fmore
vivid abroad than here. The assassination
has been generally treated in this country
as an episode, something not likely to hap
pen again and which worked no changes in
the conditions of public life; except as the
suggestion has been made in some quarters
that the president ought to employ in his
daily life the precaution other rulers have
always used. But abroad, the assault on
the president has led men to feel that a re
public, with burning questions settled and
-Istrife existing only over the management
lof the government or even the policy Of a
l3aTty, may breed assassins as deadly, if not
rs numerous, as the discomfort of des-
i,otism, and this implies that the dread OF
personal danger, which has shaken the
strongest nerves, may come to sway the
i,olicy of presidents as it has the policy

SOME facts showing the abatement of the
tramp evil and nuisance, within yeal or
two, were laid before the conference of
public charities at Boston by Pro fessor
Sanborn. Against an evil so great many
measures were taken, and some severe laws
were passed; but the retuln of prosperity
of the country has practically abolished
the evil and made those laws obsolete. at
least in New England. There has been a
falling away of more than 25 per cent. of
public paupers in Massachusetts and tramp
ing in that state is almost unknown. The
whole number of tramps lodged in the
county poor houses in whole year does
not now exceed the number who were
formerly lodged there in single fortnight
Yet tits to be remembered that within
the three years spoken Of, the populatio
of Massachusetts, has increased not less
than 125, 600, and that immigration has
never been so large as within the past two
years. The same thing has been taking
place, SO far as can be learned, Throughout
the country, until We have in the United
states at this moment, the smallest number
of public paupers everseen among civilized
communities in an equal population of So.
