The teIegraphers will surely win all
their Just demands. If the Western
Union company has not succumbed to
the inevitable ere this reaches the reader
it is but question of very brief time
when it will. The conduct of the strlk-
ers has been SO gentlemanly and dlgnl-
| fed, yet SO firm, that it has challenged
public esteem, and now the tide of pub
lie opinion is decidedly in their favor.
This strike has awakened a pretty gen.
eral feeling of distrust of all monopolies
and in the due course of events all of
them will be wiped out. It has been the
best conducted strike, taking into con-
|sideration its magnitude, that the pages
of history have ever recorded. The sue
cess of the 5telegraphers' strike will de-
monstrate to the world the feasibility of

The difficulty now existing between
the telegraph companies and the opera
tors has demonstrated the necessity of
placing that service under the control of
the government. The rapid transmits
sion of intelligence has become public
necessity, and the public interest requires
that it should no.longer be left to the
dictation of a private monopoly. We do
not favor the purchasing of the present
lines, but the government should con-
struct new ones from the surplus rev.
enues which are abundant. In, the
hands of the monopolists, the telegraph
is called "the rich mans mail'-the gov
ernment owes 1t to the people to make
it the poor mans mail also 1t is now in
the hands Of a huge monopoly with a
tendency towards a more tyrannlcal op-
preston. 1t has come to represent the
most vital part of the intelligence of the
country, and carries the most important
communications. 1t carries money, buys
and sells commodities, and transacts
business between the furtherest extremes
of the country, as though the parties
were present, and such has become the
importance of it's mission that it is not
only hazardous, but absolutely danger
GUS to trust it longer in the power OF
sharks and spectators, whose only in
terest in its service is the money they
can make out Of the public necessity
which it has created. AS means OF
business and commercial intelligence, it
has superseded the mail service, and as
Eit IS of no less Importance, it should be
placed under the same, safe, reliable and
economical control. Give us the postal

String-halt is a nervous disorder for

akin in its origin to a somewhat similar
but more aggravated disease known as
chorea, or st. Vitus's dance. This is
treated by tonics, such as sulphate Of
iron and cascarilla bark in dram doses
long continued. and it is possible that
this might have a beneficial result in
q string.halt; but experience does not
hold out any hope of it.

Chapter Oh Old Maids.

G. Z. b. writes to New York Tribune;
''The letter from tlat ~non-happy old
Maid that appeared iii the Home Inter
ests column last spring interested me a
great deal; cause why, / stand up in
that class myself and have learned out
how to meet some OF its problems.
Doubtless one reason why it is hard to
be a successful old maid is because there
are so few good examples to form
ones self upon; and secondly, there is
not much literature on the bright side
of tie subject. If we could only have
the inspiration OF q perfectly glorioua
old maid it would tighten up the whole
country for miles around; or il we could
have a first rate noTel in which the he
roine doesn't fall IN love; or some
practical settinS.forth of what
unmarried women have done,
| am sure it would be comforting reading
to a noble army Of old maids. These are
some of the things that | have found
out: All the nice, loyeable women do
not marry, or even have an affair of the
heart" know a good many suck, and
they are among the happiest and most
useful women that | know. All the wo-
men that marry are rot happy, nor do
they get anything out Of the discipline
of witehood and motherhood to elevate
their characters or refine their natures.
Il do not believe one gets airy more out
of marriage than one puts into it, And
lastly, it could not have been designed
that all women should marry. since In
all civilized countries there are more
women than men. just as if high civil
iization positively required old maids;
that is, women free to devote themselves
to the general good! And what a field
there is for such womenl They are the
natural leaders of social reforms.
There are a good many unmarried
women in this country at present
the fragment of that generation that
fell in the war. A million men dead on
the field meant a million Of women left
to fill unusual places. God never made
such a mistake as to leave half a genera
ton with no place In His economies,
and il He needed q million Of deaths to
accomplish q political reform, perhaps
He needs a million Of lives to carry on
some other part OF His work. 1t is go-
ing out OF fashion to sheer ut sp~insters;
It rests with us to make il a title Of hon
cr for what it shall express of cultivated
intellect and educated s~ensibiiities
turned un~stintedly, as only an unmar
ried woman can ever be free and quail
fed to turn, into the fund of common
good. Our 'riend forgets such ~illustri.

HOUSE AND FARM.
For the Cook

A delicious s,a for tea or lunch il
made thus: On a very fine wire grid
iron Cor n made Of wire net used for
screens) place some slices OF salt pork,
cut as thin as possible; on each slice lay
a good sized oyster, or two small ones;
6roil and serve hot. Coffee, crisp toast,
With chopped cabbage makes al almost
ideal lunch.
For chicken %croquette use three cups
OF chopped chicken, one cup of soft
bread crumbs, two eggs, pepper and
salt to taste. Mix well together, and
form into pear shaped balls. A little
chopped parsley may be added. Rel
them in egg, then in cracker, and fry in
lard in wire basket, as dougbnuts.
A very nice cake for tea and one which
may be appreciated on account of its
calling for one egg only, is made thus:
4 little more than half a cup Of batter,
nne cup and a half Of sugar, one emp of
sweet milk, one egg, three cups of -four,
)ne t~easpoonful of soda dissolved In a
very little hot water, and two teaspoon
fnls of cream of tartar, mixed thorough
ly i'll the flour; one cup of raisins
chopped very fine.
To please the children, make some
jam puffs: Roll some pie crust very
thin, cut it In squares, put a spoonful Of
lam on each piece, wet the edges with
the white of an egg and fold them to-
gether, bake for fifteen minutes or just
long enough to cook the crust. Sugar
and milk may be used in place of the
egg.
The New York Post says that home
made crackers are so nice, and it is real
ly so little trouble to make them, that
almost any mother or cook can get time
to try this rule. Wet one pint of fine
oatmeal with one gill of water; after
mixing as we'll as you can take out of
the dish on the kneeding board, on
which you have scattered plenty OF the
dry meal; roll out and cut in squares
with a sharp knife. The crackers should
be rolled very thin; these should be
baked in a slow oven, and after you
are sure they are done leave
the oven door open to allow them to
dry. Salt should not be omitted.

that you built the fence?" Why The same
year that all this happened. or maybea year
before or after. If L could only talk with
my old woman a minute l could got il ex-
act" "How2" why, i was building the
last half of that fence when she was hooked
by a COW, and she'd hunt up the man who
owned the beast and hit the date square in
the head. 1t was decided to let the exact
date remain in seclusion, although the wit
