A COOKING SCHOOL.

The Curriculum Includes Marketing,
%scrubbing and Eating What is Cooked.
A cooking school that is a cooking school
has just been opened in Gothenburg, Swe-
den. It is an annex of the girls part of
the public school system there, and every
young woman who is graduated must learn
all that the practical cooks in the nne
can teach. The cooking course is a part of
the senior year curriculum, and includes
twenty-four lessons. Twelve of these les
sons are theoretical. The rest are gpracti-
cal. Ten of the practical lessons of two
hours each are devoted to instruction in the
most popular meats and vegetables. The
girls are obliged to peel potatoes, skin on
ions, pluck and stuff chickens, spit roasts,
and the like. They put on the kettles,
feed and regulate the fires, wash the dishes,
and clean up generally after all is done.
Three lessons of two hours each concern ex-
clusively the preparation of bouillon, toast
and rice water, barley soup, and other sim
liar dishes for ill PERSONS.
The young women are instructed in
classes of five, and each group prepares sue
cessively every dish in the course. The
cooking is done mornings, the cooked dishes
are served for the dinners of the pupils and
teachers, and every girl is obliged to eat

without. During the afternoon each
student writes a description of how and
what she cooked, and appends suggestions
Us to epicurean improvements that have
occurred to her mind since she finished the
dish. These reports are read and corrected
by the instructors, and at the end of the
course the girl who cooked best and sug-
gested the most palatable innovation in the
process will bet a gold medal.
The course is unique in two particulars.
All the girls must go to market with the in
structors very early and buy all the stuff to
be used in the kitchen. Every Saturday is
given over to housekeeping. All the girls
must get into their old gowns and gloves,
twist up their hair in tight little knots with
out a friz in front or q fringe behind, and
knuckle down to securing the floor, wash
ing the windows, polishing the brass and
cleansing the walls.
The Gothenburg experiment is new. II it
proves successful, other cooking annexes to
public schools will be opened in other Swe-
dish cities.

Pilfering From Confectioncrs.

From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.
A prominent confectioner says: "The big
confectioners all along broadway lose hundreds
of dollars every season by the candy sneak
thieves That is the term we all use when
speaking of the class Of people who come in the
shop, buy 10 cents worth of dainties of some
description and fitch quarters worth of
candy off the counters. Why don't VIC put
wire screens over the candy? For this reason:
The majority of our customersare wealthy PEG
pie who spend large sums of money for hon
bons. cantlied flowers and coNserves. We are
pleased to have these people help themselves
TO whatever is on the counter. They are resu-
lar customers and we can afford to have them
do 30. Ii we had the wire screens they would
think We were mean and stirgy. No. there is
no help for il. have instructed my clerks to
look displeased and all that sort of thing but it
won't work. There is one lady who comes in
here regularly once week. She invariably
takes 25 cents worth of candies. calculate TO
lose that small amount every week, for assure
you she eats fully that much worth of imported
candies every time she comes in. One of INV
clerks spoke to her one day about it and told
her she must not do it. She took some more
candy and told the clerk not to Joke Talk
about cheek! That woman has enough for
three people. There is no way of getting rid
of the candy sneak thieves that can see."

BRITISH sHIPBUILDING.
Consul Jones Tells Some of the Causes
the Decline in the Industry.

Consul Jones Tells Some of the Causes of
the Decline in the Industry.
Consul Jones Of Cardiff, in report to the
State Department on British shipbuilding
in 1890, says:
although 1890 was year of anxiety and
frequent disappointments to ship owners and
builders, it was one of the greatest shipbuild-
ing years in the history of the industry. show
ing tonnage launched represented by s74 ves-
sells measuring 1875, 1873 tons, coming within
50.0l1 tons of the aggregate launched in 1889 and
showing an advance on the great shipbuilding
year 1883 of &c. 1919 tons. The years 1888 and
1899 indicate the full sweep of the pendulum
The former year showed a tonnage launched
of 1850. 900. Then commenced the downward
swing. and in three years. or by 1886. the total
annual output had declined to less than zoe, 600
tons. or, to be accurate, to 4SO, 799 tons. The
gradual yearly increase set in with nearly 100 900
tons in 1897 1926, 900 tons in 1883 and 425 $50
tons in 1889. when the total output reached the
unprecedented figures of 1,326,240 tons. As
1t was in 1888 so it will prove to have been in
1889. The tonnage launched during the latter
year will marx the furthest point Of prosperity
that the shipbuilding industry shall enjoy for
MANY Years to come. The year just ended already
indicates falling off of 50.0ll tons compared
with 1889. and should the annual decline of
1891 approach 500. 900 tons compared with 1890
l. sH'iii SeEtRjilIN not De sur prlseu luo uONu-
ward course OF the industry will be FASTENED
by the facts. first, that freights have
been for the last twelve months
and continue to be unsatisfactory and unprotit-
able to such an extent that vast amount of
tonnage is already laid up for want of remun-
erative employment; second, that the prices of
coal and shipbuilding material continue as
high as they were at the beginning
of last year; third. that wages all
round are equal to the rates prevailing
in January. 1880. 1 conclude. therefore.
that shipbuilders will not. during the next few
months at all events. be in position to make
tempting offers to ship owners in the way of
low prices. while the ship owners, in view of
the wretched freights prevailing and prospect
i've. will scarcely feel warranted in ordering
new ships without some extraordinary
inducements on the score of terms.
Indeed, everything seems to indicate that the
decline of output during the current year,
compared even with 1890, will prove serious to
shipbuildiug and auxiliary industries, well
as to a large army OF artisans and laborers."

ENGLISH STYLES FOR HAIR.

The Leaning Tower OF Pisa Taken ~ a
Model by Belinda in Dressing Her Locks.
From the Philadelphia Press
If English women are dressing their fair
tresses in any of the styles indicated by the
drawings Of ''smart millinery" in the London
fashion journals the civilized New Zealander a
thousand years hence will regard the FASH
ions in head dress today with about the same
surprise as we look back on the coiffures shown
In ancient Egyptian sculpture. Certainly the
hideous styles at the beginning Of the present
century were artistic by comparison. The de-
sire OF the English woman today would seem
to be TO erect structure at the back of her
head on the model of the leaning tower OF Pisa
and thereby Belinda destroys instead of show
ing to the best advantage her browning glory

The Alliance i'm Po,itics

The Farmers Alliance concluded its session
in Creston, Iowa, on Thursday. President L. L.
Polk said the farmers ought to elect more
farmers to Congress instead OF SO many law
yers. because the petitions of farmers for legis-
lation in their behalf had been disregarded.
The alliance intended to go into politics. but
not partyism. He suggested the possibility of
a new party in the next presidential campaign
and said the principles of the alliance would
triumph as early as 1896 if both old parties had
to be swept away. Gen. James Is. Weaver and
