DEAR FRIENDS: AS Superintendent
of Scientific Temperance Instruc-
ton in our State, l am anxious a
Local Superintendent should be
chosen in each Union, and write
asking your prompt attention to
this most important trust. A Su-
perintendent should be selected at
once as she can do great deal to-
wards cultivating public senti-
ment in favor of Temperance In
struction in our schools, particular
ly if she secures the cooperation of
your Press Superintendent in
your Union. Will you at once at
tend to this, and when one has
been chosen, send me her address,
and I will forward or direct where
such helps as she may need, can
be procured. AS The FREEMAN is,
or should be in every Union with
in our borders, I avail myself of its
columns to reach you.
Yours in the work,

| made Dy hltcueu Onluou iDalo,
in such a way that any lady might
be proud to have it in her house,
and that after the child had been
but three months in the Kitchen
Garden. Ladies are often mortified
bv the Ignorance and impoliteness
Of servants in visiting on the door.
Miss Huntington knew this; there
fore we play we are having callers
having polite message sent II we
are at home, or out, or if we must
be excused. In the lesson on din
ner-table setting, table manners
are taught, and how to wait on the
table.
The following is one Of their
songs:
Our dinner is ready, we invite you to din o,
The bell has Just sounded, will you pie Ase
be on time,
For promptness at meals Is the rui a at our
house
We trust you will remember Than asked to
dine out.
With Gods blessi. Al asked on the food we've
prepare
we J" IL now serve three courses with greatr
est of care.
Soup always comes first, warmed plates are
the best,
And a small piece of bread placed before ev-
cry guest,
The first course is finashed. the fruit dish
may stand,
But remove the soiled dishes, plate In each
hand;
With light step and quickly, bring vegeta-
| bles and meat,
And arrange on the table side dishes COM
plete.
We are ready for dessert, but first brush off
crumbs,
For clean knives and forks and plates are to
come.
For third or last course we have pudding or
pie,
The fruit we shall pass around to each bye
and bye.
The last three occupations have
been taken directly from the
kindergarten, viz, stick laying,
paper folding and clay moulding.
With the sticks, we teach all about
making fire, the best kinds of
wood to use etc. With the paper,
we learn something of paper but
more of napkins. Playing the
squares are napkins, we learn how
they should be folded, marked etc.
Was there ever child who did
not like to make mud pies? No
matter how aesthetic you have
grown you must acknowledge that
your children revel in it. This
fondness is turned to account and
they are taught to make bread,
biscuits and pies through the use
of clay.
And yet We have not exhausted
the Kitchen Garden. We have
charts containing the pictures of diff
ferent animals used for food, and the
children are taught the best parts
and how to buy meat. Also, about
vegetables and how to cook them.
The cooking school Is step
further on.
The Kitchen Garden is not
simply to train servants. Its objecs
is three-fold; first, to make the
children better; to save them from
growing up to be shiftless, slothtul
women; second, to make their
homes better, to touch their parents,
and last of all, to make other
homes happier in being able to
procure trained servants.
How do we connect this with
Temperament When these girls
know how to make palatable meals
and attractive homes for their
fathers, brothers and husbands, the
men will not so often seek the
saloon IN preference to the home !;
they will not so often be driven
elsewhere to find comfort and
amusement. Their homes will be
to them as ours to US, the happiest
place on earth.

One of the prettiest refutations of
All oft-repeated free trade lie was CIV
en- in Iowa by Sen. Wilson. Last fall
the farmers of Iowa were making a
careful study of the tariff question.
The Nebraska free-trader, Morton,
told an Iowa audience that they paid
the English price plus the duty for
their blankets. To disprove this Sen.
Wilson took some of the leading farm
ers to n woolon mill which was produc-
ing the best blankets. made from
wool grown on the backs of American
sheep, and worked into blankets by
American labor "Give me your pri-
ces for the best grade of five-pound
and Of eIght-pound Blankets" said
the senator. The manufacturer put
the figures on n piece Of paper, and to
the astonisllment of those present, the
prices IN each case were a. trifle lower
than those Morton had given as the
original British price. The farmers
were not converted to free trade. =

The Edmunda utah am.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-The house
committee on the judiciary today dis
cussed the details Of the Edmunds
Utah bill and will endeavor to finish
its consideration next week. Changes
of great Importance have been made.
Action taken up to the present Is
not final and may be reversed or
materially modified when the commit.
tee come to pass upon the measure as
a whole.
Perhaps the most radical change
made so far is the exclusion Of tie
clauses providing for the appointment
Of trustees to take charge Of
the Mormon church property,
the insertion of clause absolutely re-
pealing the federal charters granted
the church and emigration society.
If a quorum of the committee can
be got together next Tuesday an effort
will be made to agree upon and report
the bill to the house.
This is to get it upon the calendar.
though it is not believed that action
can be had upon it in that body dur
ing the remainder of this session.
