\
Preparations are now being made
for the fight at our own doors. As
yet we can discover no trace OF
partizan bitterness, and the decision
will be calmly made on the merits OF
the candidates. Everything has
been done for US in the nation and
the state that we could ask; 1t only
remains that ourselves shall act mp
10 the requirements of the platforms
given us at Pensacola and Chicago.
While the names of Cleveland and
Perry will help US wonderfully, we
are only more fully obligated to
make ourselves worthy of such lead
ers. He who falters in 4 good cause
Is false to his own manhood; he who
faltors in the campaign of 1881 for
trivial reason or want Of hardihooG
is false to his country as well. AT
the ballot-box in this year of oar
Lord we make decision on questions
never before submitted to us:
through its citizens our country
chooses between the new needs Of
governmental policy now necessary
to our prosperity, and the old Grim
son-hued, hato-infected, corrupt ten
denotes left us 3 legacy from the
fiercest civil war of history.
More than at any other time, the
question Of individual record will
influence the voter now. Blaine be-
gins the campaign strictly on the
defensive, and Pope makes expIana-
tions rather than attack the solid
defence-a new StonewaI-of Per
rvs record. Blaine's aggressive
campaign" has kept him busy deny
ing charges taken from public docu-
ments; Pope is a political guerilla
VINO nights the law and order of
both parties while hidden in the
misty Explanations" Of his past
Life.
The democrats in Florida have a
candidate whose life demands the
respect of all men, even where his
foes can withhold their admiration;
his opponent asks that we allow him
to execute our laws while he ack-
nowledges that the brand Of Cain
IS on his brow; he denounces the
whole past of the republican party
while he claims their support, and
calls himself independent while he
seeks by all means possible to pu;
himself under obligations to al par

PaLATkA PUBLIC SCHOOL.

Our citizens have been Inundated
in spirit and tainted in public for
the present condition of the public
school house. The board of county
commissioners decided they could
only furnish a sum of money to the
county board of public instruction
to be used as the latter board
thought best. The board of public
instruction decided they could not
use a sum left in their hands for
public uses in building a school
house for any particular district.
The trustees Of our public school in
this city, finding themselves caught
between these two horns of a diem
ma, concluded to raise the necessary
sum by subscription. One of them,
Mr.. Alderman, with bit of paper
and pencil in a few hours received
assurances that fifteen hundred dol

The Philadelphia Times.
1854.

THE PHILADELPHIA TIMES, 1884,
TIE TIMES VIII enter upon the new year
stronger and more prosperous than ever be-
lore III It's history-more widely read aEi
quoted, more heartily commended, and more
hercely criticized, with & more complete or
qaniZation. and an able ssOff Of contribution
and with the same independence and fearless
ness that has made it successful and powerful
in the past.
THE TIMES has no party to follow, no candi-
dates to advance, but will meet every issue, a.
il has ever done, with consistent devotion to
the right, to honest government and the put
lie welfare. And. while maintaining its posi-
ton as the leading journal OF Philadelphia, it
will aim to be continually in the advance in all
that can add value to q newspaper.
The value of newspaper If not In its size or
display. but in the intelligence and care, the
cOnciseness ana freshness with which 1t ia
edited. THE TIMES spends lavishly for news
from all parts Of the world but all its dis
patches are carefully edited and condensed in
order to give the complete news Of the day in
the most concise and attractive shape, and with
il q large variety of entertaining and instruc-
tive reading. Tho best writers at home and
abroad are employed TO enrich its columns
and to make il a journal adapted both to the.
busy man ard to the leisure of the horne cir
Gle Il welcome visitor to intelligent and honest
citizens of every political, religious and social
taste.
The WEEKLY TIMES is altogether different
from the weekly newspapers Of twenty years
ago. The day OF those papers have gone by.
The telegraph and better local newspapers
everywhere, especially in the thriving centres
OF rural population, have made the old weekly
metropolitan newspaper unsatisfying These
that cling to their ancient usages have lost
their hold on our forward moving people: they
are but shadows of their former greatness, and
they nave but shadow Of their former power
Those papers have had their usefulness. but il
Is gone: and, with it. they are going, too II
was not the fault Of the papers: 1t was the i'm
prOveInent of the country that brought about
the change. Men and women, wherever they
live, now require freSher news; and they re-
quire more than news.
The WEEKLY TIsaEs gathers OF the types Of

\ ROssfe!t letter in the Baltimore Sun
says: The Germans here and every
where I have yet been are evidently very
fond Of Americans. They brighten up
whenever America is mentioned, and at
the interior hotels Of Southern Germany
they say at first to US: " English ?" mo"
we say American" "Ach ia; sehr
gut, America sehr schdn," and they trot
out all the walters CT servants who can
speak little English and they want to
hear all about America. suppose we
could load a vessel with all the different
ones VINO have asked us if we didn't
want some one so willing" to work
for Us in America. The city of Heidel-
burg is so delightful we hated to Ieaveit.
We met an American gentleman there
whose son is q student at the university.
He said he had known eighteen Ameri-
can girls who had married German Ba-
rous or Counts, and all were now di-
vorced or separated but three.
Where we are now. at Rossfelt. the
people have seldom. many of them never,
seen an American. While we We're on
the Burgeberg Mountain. at the house of
the jaeger master. some of the foresters
came in and stared at us with great in
. terest. One of them said it was so
strange to see a real born American.
They sang q song for us and drank our
healths and the health of America; and
I one who was quite good looking asked
3eave 10 shake hands, it would be such
honor" The honor was graciously ac-
/ corded. We soIemnIy shook hands. and

added twenty-five parts of sugar and
cooked the fruit. A second portion of
the same berries was cooked without
sugar, and after the fruit was partially
cooked the twenty-five parts of sugar
added, and when..t this sugar had dissolved
both samples of cooked fruit were an-
alyzed when one-half of the sugar in
the first batch was converted into glu-
cose and only one-tenth of the cane sugar
in the second batch was thus changed. If
the gooseberries had been green the re-
suits would have been more striking.
If very acid fruits like currants and
cranberries are rapidly cracked by boil
ing and then set to cool for few min
utes and then the sugar added, u fine
jelly-like mass will be found when the
sauce is cold, very different from the
waterv mess so often seen. In making
preserves" the same principles hold
good for the most part, though pre-
serves are more apt to work or ferment
if they are not cooked with the fruit. In
this case it is better to steam the fruit
till it is so tender that a straw may
penetrate it, then put the fruit into
cans, add the sugar and seal up at
once. Three pounds of sugar to four
pounds of fruit will be ample-Dr. r..

At Dinner.

At dinner, it is hardly necessary to
, say, we obtain a due proportion of the
fats and oils in very varied forms It is
true we do not emulate the nutritive ex-
istcnce of the Esquimaux, whose diet
airy of the blubber and fats constitutes
the summum bonum of life spent
amid perpetual snow. But the guam
tity of fatty matters we daily contrive
to INCEST in ore form or another is very
considerable. From animal foods the
fats are readily obtainable, and from
vegetables oils of various kinds are also
elaborated. The necessity for fat as an
article of diet is seen when we learn
from physiology that it not merely con-
serves heat-a function seen in whales
and fat persons generally-bu supplies
material when it passes into the blood
which affords our bodily fuel. Fats and
oils are cheat producers" and it is
when the fat of the blood and the
oxygen inhaled into that fluid from the
air come into chemical combination,
that heat is produced. 1t is needless to
add that this process is being contin-
ually carried on in the human BODY,
and to a greater and less degree in that
of all other animals. The ''starches
and sugars" form the final materials
into which we resolve our dinner. A
large variety of substances figure in the
lists of chemists under the above desig-
nation. Common observation demon
strates that we daily consume large
quantities of the starches and sugars in
our food. A potato. for instance, may
legitimately enough be described as
mass of starch and water; rice, and
allied substances are three-fourths
starch; from bread we obtain a large
quantity of starchy MATERIAL vegeta-
bles, in fact, contain starch in consider
able proportions. Of the various
sugars" chemically so-called, the lat
ter remarks practically holds good.
Even milk-nature's typical food-con-
tains proportion of sugar in the form
of sugar of milk, or lactine; and in the
muscles of animals another peculiar
sugar is found. There can be little
doubt that from sugars and starches we
obtain matters, in the economy of the
body, are really converted into it

Engraving on Steel.

Engraving On steel is an American
process, the honor of the invention be-
longing to Boston man. The plates
to be engraved are about one-auarter of
an inch IN thickness and tempered soft.
The engraving is done by hand and by
etching as with copper plate. The
great advantage is the fact that if
many forms are desired on one plate
the original plate can be hardened in
the usual method of tempering steel,
and then, by placing it under a soft
cylinder and great pressure being ad-
ded while the cylinder is rolled back
ward and forward over the engraved
plate. it is transferred to tho cylinder.
which is in turn hardened and capable
OF transferring by the same method of
pressure an engraving similar to the
original as many times on one or moro
plates g is desired. In this way the
vignettes on bank checks, drafts and
other commercial papers do not have
to be engraved for every plate, but. be-
ing once engraved and transferred to a
small cylinder or die, can be ..rolled''
into the plate desired, as is also the
border: dates, lines and 90 forth.-C2;-
