Notes on Foods.

in selecting our supplies Of food. it is
very proper to consider which will give
a~ the most nutrimeut for the money.
The lumoermen Who 20 into the forest,

a long and severe winter, do not consult
the books that show the composition of
food Experience has shown them that.

Pork AND BEANS. No chemical anal
%sls could lead to better combination.
In the beans the flesh formers are in
large proportion to the heat producers,
and as an abundance of both are needed,
the fat Of pork is added as a heat produc-
en-. We have not the data from which to

burned to Goals, the pot is set in, and the

This is done III the evening, and the pot

the lumbermen are the sturdy fellows
that they are.
PEA-SoUP. a pound of peas will make
a gallon Of soup. The peas should be
washed and soaked in cold water over
night then be cooked in five pints of
water, with gentle simmering. A pound
OF beef or ham bone may be boiled with
the peas: for seasoning, add an onion with
few cloves stuck in it, salt to taste, and
about forty whole grains Of pepper. An
ounce or two Of sugar will add greatly to
the richness of this as it does to almost
all soups. At the end of three hours
simmering, pass the soup through wire
sieve or colander, with the aid of pota-

made in similar manner. American

of one hundred and eleven delegates We're
present. The following nominations We're
made Senator, D. n. Mortland of ROckand:

Reuben Pilsbury, of Rockland; Register of

were adopted affirming the platform of the
Republican State Convention ut Portland and
cOndemning GOV. Plaistcd for not renominat-
ing Judge Libby and pledging support TO the
nominees of the convention. The proceedings
We're very harmonious.
mo AUTHORITY BACK OF HIM"
The absolutely disgraceful character of Mr..
Ladd's recent attempt to Justify his public slam
dering of Mr.. Frye, by quoting utterly irrele-
want and inconsequcnta gossip of a Boston
Herald correspondent, is rendered the more
conspicuous by the following paragraph of Il
recent letter i'll which the very CORRESPONDENT
cited, declares that Ladd had ''no authority
back of him..
Mr.. Ladd also made Il mistake in recent
speech, i'll attributng to Senator Frye remark
about the contemplated use of money which
he did not make. The inference that Il certain
thing was to be done may have been natural
enough from the statements he cites in his
long-delayed explanation. but it was Il great
blunder to say what he did with no authority
back Of him.

Painting Houses.

Mr.. f. Z. ReXford presents some i'm
portant facts on painting Houses" in the
American Agricuturist, from which we
select the following:
For country houses | would advise for
open, exposed places, a pale gray, or drab
There are complaints made frequently
that drab looks cold. 1t can not look
colder than white does, and there is no
reason why it should look cold at all, if
proper care is taken to have the trim

Warm-t toned brown cornce and blinds.
with plenty of vines clambering up it to
break the mOnotOny of the surface be
tween the windows, and it is one of the
WaTmeSt-loOking houses | know of. In
the summer it is refreshing to look at it,
1t does not pam the eyes with its glare
1t does not assert itself the moment YOU
reach the top of the nill and come within
sight OF it. \ white house would draw
your attention at once and no matter
how You might try to look ut something
else, the white blotch on the landscape
would leave its impression in Your eye,

gray house seems part Of the landscape.
Its colors blend well with the green about
it. There are no large trees around it,
but there are vines, and the general
effect IN summer is cool and subdued, and
in winter it gives a sense Of warmth and
comfort Why it gives a sensation of
warmth at one season and of coolncss at
another, is explained by the fact that
Summer is a season Of high bright coors,
and the Grab is in lower tone of color
than those prevailing in the landscape.
Winter is a season OF bat little color, and
then drdh. in contrast with the SNOW
covered earth. becomes cheerful. and the
deep toned trimmings, which should be
seen on every house painted in drabs or
grayS, give sense OF warmth which they
would not have III summer when all
about it is in high, decided tones.

hackers as favor the election of Gov. Plasted.
When the delegates meet they nominate tickets
made up of pretended Greenbackers and square
Democrats, or they nominate part of the ticket
and leave the rest of the places for the Demo-
Gratis to fill. That is what GOV. Plaisted means

A Point For Farmers.

The pttstield, Mass, Eagle says: "The
case of Sylvester French of Peru, acGuit-
ted yesterday in he district court of
selling cider Illegally, brought our a
peculiar legal point and matter of es-
pecia interest to farmers The statute
prohibiting the sale of liquor, chap 100,
sec. ], provides that the law shall "not
apply to sales Of cider and native wines
by the makers of them, not to be drunk
on the premises The maker then has a
right to sell. Senator Rockwell argued
for the defence that the farmer who
carries bis apples to the mill is the maker
and not the miller who runs the mill
The miller, according to Mr. Rockwell is
simply the farmers agent, and the cider
is manufactured product of the farm
He argued that if this was not the inter
probation of the law intended, it would
never have passed legislature of farm
ers, the courts having held that cider
IS an intoxicating drink The question
whether the farmer or the cider mill man
is the maker Of the cider, may be regarded
hy a legislature of farmers as easily
settled in favor of the farmers, but the
supreme court would be likely to look at
it differently. Is the man who sells the
corn or the brewer the maker of the
Whiskey I?

Maine Politics.

Belfast correspondent of the Lewiston
journal writes follows: | can say now
that the prospect in Waldo county is very
promising. The Republicans are united and
Ill earnest, while Fusion is full of troubles.
The manner in which Rust and his friends
We're treated by NIurch and his friends at the
Fusion congressional convention at Rockland
has a cooling effect upon the achievements of
those gentlemen in this county. Murch's asking
for Il third term is not in keeping with the doe
tllne of rotation in office, which Rust has al
ways preached, and which was one of The car
dlnal principles of the GreenbackerS. Then
Murch has done nothing for his constituency.
He has paid little or no attention to those who
elected him: has not attended to their business
at Washington, and hardly answered their let
tels; and not one in ten of them but will say.
'Re is MT tt toj. The uIace he occ1Dies." When he
was first elected there was a craze to break the
old Republican slate, no matter with whom,
and cry for a 'Working-man" for candidate.
But now the GreenbackcrS find that the Fusion
slate Is made at every election by few manip-
ulators. with as supreme contempt for the pco-
pies wishes as any party ever known in history
ever exhibited, and they begin to see that the
''Workng-man' candidate is the man who will
do some work in Congress when he gets there.
and not one who is about at labor meetings and
other gatherings. who stays but thirty days out
or hundred in the seat which he has been

STAR DREAM
There was night when you and

And into all our dreaming drew

That only angels hear
And many hue OF many = gem

To bind about your hair,
