DemOc ats Cannot be Protection
n0fa.

Tonight the Democrats of the House
of Representatives at Washington meet
to caucus on the Morrison horizontal
tariff. An exciting time is expected, as
the line will be laid down which Demo-
Gratis are expected to toe, or else the
party will be permitted to shamble along
in its own loose jointed fashion on the
question of tariff. 1t is said that
Speaker Carlisle and Chairman Nor
rson are determined to make the Dem
ocratic party say what it means upon
this question.
The Democrats must either follow
Carlisle and Morrison into the broad
way of free trade or they must confess
themselves too cowardly to face the
question on the eve of Presidential
campaign. They will command more
respect if they will come out openly and
declare themselves straight out in favor
of free trade than by dodging the
Question and postponing action from
time to time in the hope Of whipping in
recalcitrant members. For forty years

trade. 1t has always shown a DISPOSE
ton to strike down protection wherever
it had an opportunity, and if it has any
principle whatever at the present time
it is opposition to protection. 1t must
either accept the responsibility it as
lsumed in organizing the House, and

, declared policy, or it must skulk away
and earn the contempt of the country
by attempting to play a double game

4 Chat With Bayard.

II do not recollect any National can

year. AS usual thing all the issues are
made up by this time and the campaign
is we'll under way in all the States.
Now there are not half dozen States in
which the campaign has become anima.
ted. The fight is warm in Ohio, but it
is owing TO the October election"
"To what do you attribute this unpre.
cedented dullness 2" asked the Post cor
respondent.
"To lack Of sharp divisions between
the two parties" replied the Senator.
"Of course there are issues, but they
lack the intensity which has marked the
issues of the past campaigns. The Re.
pubicans made systematic and deter
mined effort to revive the bloody shirt
issue, but they failed. The Sherman
outrage committee was organized for that
distinct purpose, but the scheme did not
work. The tranquility of the country,
North and South, is so apparent that the
people saw through the thin disguise of
this partisan conspiracy to kindle anew
the flame of sectional animosity." The
issue Of reform, concluded the Senator,
"is the paramount question and it is the
only one that will grow in popular inter-
est till the day of election. The first
great need Of this country is honesty in
the administration of the government"
Senator Bayard in the Houston Post.

the funeral sermon of his aged colleague,
Bishop Hubbard II. Kavanaugh, in
Nashville. To look back now it seemed

mystical love-" for in that sermon he
said: "Time like an ever rolling stream

Three Meals a Day.

An English writer gives some much
needed advice as to the times and fre-
ouency of meals. In his opinion the
present usual practice of three meals q
day has good reason, as we'll as custom,
in it's favor. When work of any kind is
being done, whether mental or bodily,
the intervals between taking food should
not be so long as to entail demands on
the system when its store of material for
the generation of force is exhausted.
An ordinary full meal, in the case Of a
healthy man, is generally considered to
have been completely digested and to
have passed out of the stomach in
four hours. A period of rest should
then be grant ID to the stomach. Assum-
ing that two hours are allowed for this.
the interval between one meal and anoth'
er would be six hours and this accords
with the experience Of most men. Du'
ring rest and sleep there is less waste 60
ing on, and especially during sleep there
is greatly diminished activity of all the
functions of the body. The interval,
therefore, between the last meal of one
day and the irst of the next may be
longer, as it generally is, than between
the several day meals. Assuming that
breakfast be taken between or o'clock,
there should be a midday meal about !
or 2. The character of this must depend
on the nature of the days occupation
and the convenience Of the individual.
With women and children this is gener.
ally their hungry time, aud the mid day
repast, whether called luncheon or din.
ner, is the chief meal. So it is with the
middle and aboring classes, for the most
part. But for the merchants, profession
al men and others, whose occupations
take them from home all the day, this is
inconvenient, and, moreover, it is not
found conducive to health or comfort to
take full meal in the midst of the days
work. There can, however, be no doubt
that much evil arises from attempting to
60 through the day without food, and
then with exhausted powers sitting down
to hearty meal. Something of a light
easy, digestible, but sustaining character
should be taken toward or 2 o'clock.

Inventions of Half a Century.

The number of inventions that have
been made during the past fifty years is
unprecedented in the history of the
world. Inventions of benefit to the hu-
man race have been made in all ages

are crowded into the past fifty than into
any other fifty since recorded in history.

seem to be prefgured, and the propulsion

C0rn.Starch Sugar.

The s,arch-sugar industry in the
United States consumes daily 10000
bushels Of corn and produces grape sugar
and glucose syrup of the yearly value of
$lO,0O0,O0O. There are thirty factories
in the United States, furnishing their
product to brewers and for the manufac-
ture OF table syrup and the adulteration
of cane sugar. 1t is also largely used in
confectionery, in canning fruits, making
fruit jellies, and in cooking. Artificial
honey is made of it, and so, also, is vine-
gar. In France and Germany potato
starch is used instead of corn, the latter
country consuming over 10000 tons Of
starch and making 40,000,00O tons of
starch sugar. The industry is an increas.
ing one, and is another of the many con-
tributiors of chemical technology to the
wealth of nations. In 1911 Kirchhoff
prepared sugar from starch by the pres.
ent process, which consists in brief, of
extracting the pure starch from corn or
potatoes, transforming this into sugar by
treatment with dilute acid, purifying and
then concentrating the product to either
glucose syrup or crystalline grape sugar.
By this process ffty.six pounds of corn
will yield thirty pounds of starch sugar,
the rest being used for cattle food, as it
is rich in nutritive matters.
The corn is stepped in hot water for
several days, ground between burr stones,
the starch separated on silk sieves, cleaned
by alkaline waters and separated from
the waters by deposition. The CONVEX
sion into sugar may be accomplished by
various acids. In practice, one and one
half pounds of sulphuric acid will change
100 pounds of starch into sugar after
short boiling with the dilute acid. The
acid mixture is neutralized with marble
dust, decolorizcd by iiltering through
boneblack, and is ready for the market as
a colorless liquid or as snowwhite crys-
tails. When made into table syrup it is
mixed with cane syrup to give it flavor
and tone, the cane syrup being used
much as butter is to give bovine qualities
to oleomargarine. For brewing it is a
very imperfect substitute for barley malt,
as it is deprived of the nitrogenous
bodies and mineral salts originally con.
tained in the corn. For the adulteration
of brown cane sugars, grape sugar is
added to the extent of twenty or more
per cent. But as the adulterant is per-
fectly harmless nothing is lost except in
taste, as glucose only has two-thirds the
sweetening power OF cane sugar. BY no
commercial process can all the starch be
changed into glucose, about five per cent.
remaining as intermediate products,
mainly maltese and dextrine, which,
thoug b harmless to the human system,
have no sweetening power.-Indianapohs

"Papa is Running the Engine"

One beautiful morning in the spring of
1868, I was on board passenger train on
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, cross.
ing the green glazes from the Alleghanies
westward. At that time this railroad
was held alternately by the Federal and
Confederate armies, and travel was neith-
er safe nor pleasant. On the occasion of
which I write the train was behind its
time, and was running at very high
speed, and as We were whirled around
sharp curves, over fields, and across
bridges, nearly every one on board man.
ifested some anxiety at each jerk and jar
of the train. All eyes were turned to
the windows, and many faces wore look
of uneasiuess. I was thinking of the
probabilities of the train being hurled
over an embankment, and the fearful
scenes that must follow, when observed
bright little girl of four or five sum-
mers approaching me, and, as she extend
ed her little hand and bade me Good
morning" in a sweet, clear voice, 1 eu-
gagged her in conversation, by asking her
if she were not afraid to ride OH the cars.
To which she replied:
Sometimes, but I am not afraid this
morning" why" asked, "are you
not afraid this morning? Everybody
else seems to be afraid; and, besides, we
are running very rapidly" "Oh, there
is no danger at ALL" she replied, "papa is
running the engine"
Her father was the engineer, and she
had such implicit confidence in his abili.
ty to protect her, that she felt perfectly
secure and happy.
I shall never forget the lesson of faith
and trust I learned from that dear child.
When clouds, .and storms, and darkness
surround my pathway, and 1 almost feel
that must perish, remember that it is
my Father in Heaven that watches over
me, and if will only take His proGeied
hand, He will lead me in paths of peace,
beside the still waters. Oh, bless His
name forever!
