Cold sliced potatoes fry and taste bet
ter by sprinkling teaspoOnful of -four

To polish nickel-plated goods after
becoming black and not worn, use
rouge or whiting Oh rag with little

It's not good plan to take off the
cover of the stove to toast or boil any
thing when there is dish in the oven.
Ordinarily no one should stay at a
dinner longer than three hours, and in
taking leave the guest bids farewell
only to the hostess.
Never throw away cold potatoes, as

adventures which he had.
One morning Tommy looked over the

saw an awfully funny little man with a
curious little flag in his hand grinning
at him.
'sWho are you?" Tommy asked, for

Pork should be thoroughly cooked. and

OverdOne.
A cheap and suitable dessert for a
pork dinner is made as follows: Take
a half dozen large, tart apples, peel and
slice fine and place in deep bowl, with
two tablespoonful of sugar, cinnamon,
cloves and mace and cover with thin
paste made out of one cup of flour, a
teaspoonful of lard, the same of butter,
and enough cold water to form dough.
After the paste is placed over the bowl
bake half hour in hot oven. This
may be eaten with lemon or nutmeg
sauce. or with mOlaSSeS and hot water
favored with lemon.
Hard boiled eggs may be utilized into
a nice salad. Remove the shells, cut
into small pieces and mix three eggs
with two cups of cold boiled potatoes.
The latter should be cut into dice
shapes. Add little minced parsley, a
tablespoonful of vinegar, half that
amount of olive oil, one-half a lemon
sliced thin, and serve ice-cOld. This
will be found especially nice for lun-
cheon or to eat with boiled fish.

THE BOY AND THE FISHES.

BY Mary Knauss, Eleven Years
Old, 23O5 North Seventh Street,
Philadelphia.
Once there was little boy. Every day
he would 60 out fishing. Every day he
would bring home lot of fishes for his
mother. The little boy was very glad to
go out fishing. His mother was GLAD to
see him go out fishing. So his mother
did not have to buy any meat to eat.
The little boy thought it would be nice
for him to bring lot of fish home every
day. He thought it would help his
mother a great deal for him to bring a
lot of fishes home every day. That
ended the story.

gracefully, willingly. without any jeal-
ousy or hard feelings, and Acknowledges

and without any evasion or mental
reservation yields the palm to Houston

thority of the Houston Herald, which
says:
"Forty-one members Of the Arkansas
Press association passed through the
city en- route to Austin from Galveston.
The party had intended to stop on at
Houston, and they entered carriages at
the depot to ride to the city. The yehi-
oles, however, became mired in the
mud, and the editors concluded that q
further journey into Houston would i'm
peril their lives. They managed to
reach firm ground, and subsequently
had special coach placed at their dis
posal for their journey to Austin"
San Antonio toted these same editors
and their wives, daughters and sweet
hearts all over the city, and down the
river bank to the missions, and In spite
Of the unprecedentedly heavy rains OF
the night and day before, they found
good roads and had very pleasant
drive.

FRIDAY, MAY, II, 1888.
CAUCUSSING ON TARIFF.

Mills committee have matters ar
ranged, or think they have, to carry the
tariff bill through the house by caucus
tactics. They have submitted the bill
to a democratic caucus, for the purpose
OF eliciting opinions and amendments
which are to be considered in committee
and referred back to caucus for approval
thus endeavoring to secure a united
democracy in support OF the measure.
Mills action in the river and harbor sp-
preparation bill was wisely ordered to
make friends for his tariff measure and
he is quite sanguine of success. II his
tariff bill gets through the house in Its
present form, or anything approaching
thereto, it will be one of the miracles OF
tariff legislation. Among the amend
ments proposed are those reducing tax
on sugar 30 per cent, decreasing the
duty on cotton bagging 335 per cent,
placing on the free list all manufac-
tured products controlled in their home
production by trusts, placing potatoes
on the free list and reducing
duties on cotton goods to twenty-five
per cent. ad valorem. 1t was also pro-
posed to put sheep shears, coal oil sur
gical instruments, and all machinery for
the manufacture Of cotton and wooden
goods and bagging, on tie free list.
These were the principal amendments
proposed and with these the committee
Is now wrestling in order to make their
report to the next caucus. This ia the
situation Of affairs and how it will affect
the vote of some who are known to be
hostile to the bill no one can say. The
republican tariff bill which will be Of
fered by Mckinley, Of Ohio, may draw
off some of the supporters of the Mills
measure and create a diversion In favor
of the substitute. The country is fol-
lowing the course Of the debate with
some interest, wondering whether the
democracy Will be able to turn the con-
gress of these United States into Cob
den, free trade. club.

Work That Lasts for Ages.

Die sinking is carried on to large extent in New York, and the work turned out from the various establishments is already ac- knowledged in the market to be of the very highest order. The material from which the dies are usually made, either brass or steel, is first turned into the desired shape in 8 lathe. Steel has to be submitted to certain process called annealing, by which it becomes soft and pliable The letters or figures, as the case may be, are then traced on the metal, after which the graveur is brought into play. This tool must be highly tempered, or else it will fail to do the work marked out for it on the steel plate. The artist who attempts die sinking must needs be temperate in his habits, as a steady hand and clear eyesight are two necessary requisites, should success be the object to be attained. The cutting of the various letters and designs cannot be rushed as the artist must work slowly to ob- tain accuracy.
 Dies are used for medals, rubber stamps, seal presses, wax and notary seals, ribbon stamps, stencil alphabets and various other necessaries of mercantile use Many of the steel dies cut for medals bring high price, and when any sort of a fine piece of work is turned out the die usually brings as much as $50. The greatest number of dies nowadays are used in the cutting of rubber stamps, and, although bringing @ fair price, not many duplicate orders arc received, as the metal will wear a lifetime should it not meet with a mishap or the style change, which is sometimes the case.-New York Mail and Ex-
