PICKLING TIME.

There are some general rules for pick
ling, which if kept in mind save much
trouble in looking up, weighing, etc.,
when one is hurried. The time which a
housekeeper can spend comfortably in
the kitchen is, each day, short. That is
when the cook is not using the stove
which, with dinner at noon, is but two
and half hours, or somewhat less. So
it is well that the receipt be well conned
and all the Ingredients be looked up the
day before; that a. good fire is ready, ,ald
all utensils brought out by the cook
while the family are breakfasting. Good
temper is very important on these occa-
sions, and it is but fair to the cook that
she be informed the days before that
such an inroad is to be made upon her
domain the next morning.
Where brine is used las in almost all
pickles. it should be made by dissolving
salt in water enough to cover the pickles.
until it will bear up an egg, or q small
Irish potato. Unless so strong as this
the cucumbers, or any vegetables used,
are likely to spoil. In speaking of "clar-
flied brine" brine made as above. is
meant, then boiled and strained Cider
vinegar is best, though some like white
wine; either should be bought at a relia-
BILE store, or there is danger of the pick
les spelling. If too acid, that is very
sharp TO the taste, quart of water may
be added to gallon Of vinegar without
its being too weak. An ounce of ground
spices, celery seed, or mustard seed is
about as much as can be taken up on the
ordinary tablespOOn-nOt kitchen spoon

soning for many dishes. A teaspoonful
slightly crushed adds q pleasant flavor to
soup for eight persons.
After the pickles are made they should
be kept in wide-mouthed crooks. or lars
and a cloth first put over them; then 4

NUMBER 35.

write only when he or she is capable OF
expressing thoughts by means of pen and
ink clearly and correctly This includes
the proper use of capitals, spelling,
punctuation, grammar; but that is not
all. 1t inclues the power of collecting
and arranging ideas.
The excuse for the glaring deficiencies
in these respects so often manifested by
the graduates of our grammar schools is
that there is insufficient time TO teach
reading and writing properly and to also
teach all else that is required. Then let
the other things claim less attention, in
order that what is of prime importance
may receive more. President Eliot of
Harvard University declared few years
ago, in substance, that the only thing
essential to a good education is mas
terry of ones own language, spoken and
written. If the word mastery, is taken
in its broadest sense the statement can
not be gainsaid.
The fact is that a mass of stuff is
taught in most of our common schools
that is little better than useless lumber.
In order to secure to the rising genera
ton the inestimable blessings of a gen
uine knowledge of reading and writing
the lumber can very well be cast over
board. The future men and women of
this country can get along very well with
out knowing the names of all the capes
on the west coast of South America
without being able to extract cube roots
without a knowledge of the details of
King Philips war; without being able to
spell pbthisic.
They cannot get along, aud be such
men and women as this Republic needs,
without capacity for and love of that
culture which Matthew Arnold truly calls
''the knowledge of the best that has been
taught and uttered in this world" and
without the ability and inclination to
think for themselves and to utter their
thoughts.-N. Y. Press, An SEPT.

WHAT TO TEACH.

In very few days more the public
schools everywhere will be again In ses-
sion. No other topic can be more time
ly, and few, If any, more important than
that Of the way in which the precious
opportunities that the teachers of the
public schools have are to be improved.
1t would be worse than useless to deny
that a cOnsiderableamountO of widespread
dissatisfaction exists among intelligent
parents with the results achieved in the
average public school. We are not say
ing that teachers are incompetent or un-
faithful. On the contrary, we gladly
bear witness that, in the great majority
of cases, the men and women who pre-
side over public school classes are able
and devoted. Whatever criticisms can
be justly made must be directed, not
against the teachers, but against methods
Of instruction, for which the rcsponsi.
bility Is often far more with Boards OF
Supervisors who cling to outworn tradi.
tons than with the instructors.
The main ground Of complaint is that
pupils are not taut ht to read and write
This seems at first blush like an impos
sible criticism, but whoever is in posi-
ton TO judge will be forced, upon investi
cation, TO acknowledge that it is based
upon too much truth. Reading is moi

NO BOOM OF THAT TOWN

For two straight years the Kicker has
persistenly opposed the idea of boom
to attract attention to our town, We
have watched this boom business in
scores OF other places, and in every In-
stance it has reacted disastrously. Our
course has aroused the ire of certain
spectators, but we shall continue it Just
the same, says the ArizOnd Kicker We
have got 200 acres of cactus pasture
which we should like to dispose of -
some Ohio farmer who wants to better
his condition, and who could be worked
up to part with $1,000 in cash, but we
haven't the cheek. We own half a mile
of side hill, which won't even grow rat
tlesnakes, but we haven't the gall to
boom it for peach orchard A million
years hence we may have SIX railroads
here, but we can't force ourselves to
Hhoop-la! hurrah! over the prospect.
We own about S14, 4,C00, 100000 worth of
wildcat mining stock, every mine being
in the clouds, and but for our honesty
we'd proceed to boom and unload. We
are at the head of company to turn the
Pacific Ocean into the deserts of the
West-preSident of an artesian well com
pany-Secretary of the Great Strawberry
Grove s. A 'ociatiOn, etc, but we were
born honest, and we can't look tender
foot in the eye and lie to him. No, gen
tlemen, this town is what it is and no
more. 1t isn't going to be second Chi
cago. 1t has no Niagara Falls. There
isn't even good fishing within 80 miles
of us. We simply have the great Ariao-
ma Kicker, las saloons, 10 gambling
houses, stores and a population of $500
souls, most of which will take 'theOther
road" when the judgment day arrives.
That's all, and those who don't want to
come can stay away.

CARE OETHE FEET

1t is the part of the wise mother then
to carefully watch the feet of her little
ones during their tender years. ''Koep
| the head cool and the feet warm" is a
faithful admonition, especially adapted
to the children. With many, wooden
stockings should be avoided altogether,
| especially when they cause itching or
sweating of the feet. PerspiratiOn will
be absorbed by the wool, making of the
stocking, a cold, clammy mass, more to
be dreaded than the most tempting
''mud puddle" Equip such children
with firm, substantial cotton hose, pro-
vding wooden anklets or leggings, if
thought best, and their feet will be warm
and dry, except for outward wetting.
When this happens. either in child or
adult, the wet garments should be
PROMPTLY removed, the feet bathed-if
possible, with lukewarm water-and
vigorously rubbed till dry Where this
is promptly done, dry shoes and stock
ings being put on, there is little danger
of serious results. Care in keeping the
feet warm and dry is very much better
than mufiiing the throat and neck. Too
often it happens that thick mutfier is
lad aside, the child steps into draught
of air, the respiration is checked, and
deadly lung or thrOa, troubles follow;
whereas, had the throat been but
lightly covered, the strong circlation of
the blood naturally keeping it abundant
ly warm, with the extra attention de-
voted to the feet and lower limbs, where
the circulation is least vigorous, there
would have been no danger of colds OF
more dangerous maladies.
While the child's foot is immature,
with yielding bones and tender muscles,
It is of the greatest Importance that care
De exercised in all that pertains to the
shoes, if serious trouble in later life
would be avoided. The shoe should fit
properly being neither too large nor too
small, and the child be taught to walk
firmly and squarely upon it; as soon as
there are s'gns of the heel running
over" the ad of a cobbler should be
invoked, or new pair procured. More
is meant by the eft of a shoe than is
often realized. Unless the hollow of
the foot is fitted, there is constant
tendency to break down the arch, making
the foot flat and the owner miserable;
and the graceful contour, once destroyed,
can never be wholly regained. In nature
| life, except in case or disease of debility,
the muscles may be trusted to maintain
.he true proportions.-GO0d House

Co OPERATIONS ADVANCES,

Cooperation has invaded where here
tofore its entrance Sc emed an impossi-
bility, or at least a dream of the far
futdre. To be sure, twas but drop in
the cup, but the example is one that
may lead to larger movements in the
same direction should the present expert
ment prove successful. To ensure har-
mony, and possibly protection for itself,
the Illinois Railroad Company has asked
its emplopes TO become stockholders in
the corporation on easy conditions.
They can subscribe for stock and pay
for it in instalments, paying the market
price at time Of purchase. The railway
officials expect that as their employe,
shall become part owners of the prop
erty they will have special interest Il

Increased efficiency, better dispatch
larger economy in the use of tools

against strikes are what is looked for AZ
a result of the innovation. The appli
cation of the theory of cooperation II
the management and running of great
