Cotton seed OH for Cooking,
New Orleans Times-Democrat. |


The best known vegetable oils that this
country produces are cotton seed oil and pea
nut oil, both Of which are understood to
have been for years exported to Europe, COM
ing back to US in wicker-covered TASKS as
Italian olive oil. Real olive oil from Cali
fornia is too small a product, as yet, to count
much in the home market. The manufact-
urers OF the new olive butter-which is not
butter at all, but clear greenish oil-have
agreed to give US home product, warranted
pure, without the ocean voyage; though to
conciliate our ridiculous American preiu-
dices, they do not label it cotton seed or pea
nut oil, the former of which it probably is.
Any one who tries it will agree that it
cooks as well as salad oil; and as all vegeta-
bic oils heat at lower temperature than the
solid animal fats, it does not burn away or
waste as rapidly as lard It comes in con-
venient cans, with a mouthpiece like the
kerosene oil cans, so that you can pour of
just the desired quantity for use and, after
cooking. this can be carefully strained and
returned to the can, except if it has been
used for fish, when it must be put into q
separate bottle and kept apart DR. this USE
1t has 4 slightly pungent smell when cook
ing, which is said to be entirely removed by
the use of pinch of salt, but which is no
worse than other frying through the house
The egg plants, oysters, clam or corn frit-
tiers, that are turned out of olive butter by
a good cook, have not particle of greasiness
about them, nor any taste whatever of the
medium in which they are fried

The Practice OF the Law.
New York Mail and Express

The practice OF the law is now very much
like that of any other occupation. Every
thing connected with it is done on business
principles. Large offices have a staff of
clerks, each with his special duties There
viii be bookkeeper and cashier, and the
transaction of the day will be as methodically
entered and charged up as those of wholesale
dry goods or grocery house. Many lawyers
are becoming specialists. Some devote them
selves wholly to the trial of cases, and are
experts in the cross-examination of unwilling
witnesses and appeals to the jury. The
argumentum ad hominem is q favorite de
vice of jury lawyers; but it can be used to
thwart justice. During the excitement
caused by the taking of Mason and Siidell
from the Trent, we heard an action tried
against an English corporation. In summing
up, the plaintiffs counsel had hardly touched
upon the merits OF the case-for they were
few-bUt made what might been called
Fourth Of July speech" He told the Jury
to remember the hatred of the English for
the. north and their sympathy with the south
and not to give the defendants a verdict
The patriotic feelings of the jurors got the
better Of their sense of justice, and they
found for the plaintiff.
There are lawyers who sit in their Office the
day long and give advice to clients in trouble
Many do no business but that connected with
real estate-the examination Of titles and con-
veyancing generally. There are admiralty
lawyers, patent lawyers and divorce lawyers
The last have an unsavory, though profitable
speciality. Criminal law is a separate branch
of practice, and is in the hands of compare
lively few With rare exceptions, no man
who has an average civil practice will take
criminal cases. We speak Of city lawyers,
for to the country lawyer all is fish that
comes to his net He is expected to under
take the defense of horse thief as willingly
as he sues on a promissory note. 1t has be
come custom for prominent LAWYERS to form
partnerships. Two or three men, or even
more, will combine, and, to use common
expression, "pool their profits, " dividing them
in any way which may be agreed upon. Legal
business, or at least the most important and
the most valuable. has q tendency to centre
in a few Well-knoWn firms.

Gen. Sheridan.
Washington Letter. !

One Of the local papers quotes Chicago
tailor as saying that Sheridan has the finest
figure of any man he ever fitted The
Sheridan standard Of figure can hardly
become a fashionable one. Sheridan is
barely Eve feet six inches in height, while he
is nearly as broad as he is long. He has a
round bullet head set down between his
shoulders without the slightest sign OF a
neck His body is long enough for man
six feet in height. This naturally leaves his
legs a trife short. He does not need,
however physical beauty to sustain his
reputation. It was a strange chance that
gave Sheridan his opportunity. A friendless
Ohio boy of Scotch-Irish parentage, he had
no influence and secured an appointment to
West Point through the chance favor of Gen.
Ritchey, member of congress from Ohio. In
the early part Of the war Sheridan was a
mere quarter1naster in Missouri Early in
1862 he was in Wisconsin, buying horses for
the United States. But soon after he got
under range of Grants eye, and he gave him
his opportunity, and opportunity was ali
Sheridan wanted. He did not marry until
some time after the war. His wife is a
daughter OF the recently retired Quartermas-
ter General Rucker.

ill.ttieltJ1 LeUL11sJ
The rapid growth Of this city may be judged
from TIE fact that one man alone, Mr.. VIM.
n. Singerly hos given out contracts for the
erection of S03first-class houses in the twenty
eighth ward These houses are in blocks, the
favorite Philadelphia plan. The first batch
CT seventy eight has Just been completed, and
the contractor has begun the next lot of 100.
These houses are valued at from Sc, $50 to
s., 800 each. Building is active in all parts
of the city, but especially so in the north
western portion, which q rock or o gravel
surface formation and q greater elevation
make more desirable for residences than the
older and the southern portions Of the city.
Builders predict that this boom VIII not last
and that a couple of years more viii see it
checked, but the supply does not seem likely
to outrun the demand for some time, as is
shown by the fact that rents are going up.
But however rents may go up, they will
take some time to equal those of Cincinnati
They are now nearly so per cent. less. Last

Cincinnati rents were too low. They would
find small comfort in this city. A house of
six rooms and bathroom, range in the
kitchen, hot and cold water on both floors
and gas, may be had for ST or SIS month.
Without going into further details, it may
be said that houses may generally be rented
at figures below those of any large western
city, and that all but those of the cheapest
sort are provided with the conveniences
named. Houses which now rent for S14 g
month, and which but two years ago would
only bring s12, are provided with range, bath,
hot and cold water. The better class of
houses are also provided with heaters
which remove the dust and annoyance at
tendant on household fires, except that in the
range, to the cellar. The poorer classes are
here able to command that sanitary luxury
of bathroom, and the housewife who, in
other cities would be content to have four
holed stove, half out Of repair, perhaps, in
her scantny furnished kitchen, is able to COM
mand the use of a range with the boon of q
constant supply of hot water at the sink. !
prefer to speak especially of the cheaper
houses, because it shows to what an extent
ideas of comfort prevail among the poorer
people Of this city. There are many other
points in which this shows, but the theme is
building, and comfort is incidental.
