PRICE THREE CENTS.
DOMESTIC SCIENCE LENDS A HAND,

| There is another new and importan
factor in cooking, Many articles
need crisp touch, or something tC
make the other ingredients more har'
monious, and it is not every cook who
can use butter of the best quality fol
all cooking. 1t is right here that the
danger lies. The housekeeper thinks
she cannot afford the best grade Of
an article, and yet fancies she must
have that article at all hazards.
Lard and pork have been standbys
so long, and there are so many places
where they seem TO be necessary. that
their quality is important. Still un-
der the very best possible conditions
the grease is unhealthy, and its faults
cannot be overlooked in fact people
who are at all sensitive cannot eat
food containing these ingredients.
Cottolene Is a preparation which
comes into the market to meet Just
this need. The product is made of
cotton seed oil and beef suct, is the
same consistency as lard. and looks
like it except in color, which is
creamy.
Cottoleme is delicate in preparation,
is used in place of lard or butter in
cooking. For frying il is unsurpass-
ed, as rich brown color is easily Sc
cured, There is not tie least sugges-
ton Of extra fat, but crisp fiue fin
ish, very pleasing in fish, cakes, fried
cereals, oysters, or clans.
A peculiarly of this preparation is
that while food seems rich there is no
fatty taste to disturb the digestion,
and for this reason it has been very
popular wherever used. The popu.
arltv of Cotlolene is due to the skill
full handling and presentation of
new element in kitchen economy, by
firm of large resources, which offers
only the purest and best for home
consumption. This firm is delermin-
ID to maintain high standard in the |
interest of their customers, and the |
'ure food laws of which they are firm

The decent private in the United
States army is a good deal more of a
gentleman than the drinking, gambling,
|tyrannical officer who endeavors to fix
great social gulf between them. One
of these officers in public address late
ly went so far out of his way as an off,
Ger and a gentleman as to slander the pri-
vate soldier as always coarse, low fel-
low. The fact is that vicious and criminal
characters are not recruited in the Unit
ed States army. Very often, in a fit Of
pique, well educated young men, be-
longing to families of at least as good So
cial standing as those of the persons
who strut over them, enlist in the regu-
lar ranks. This slandering of the grand
little army of the United States will not
elevate in public opinion the SO called
gentlemen who indulge in it. A mans
gentlemanhood never shines so brightly
as when he recognizes the gentleman
hood in another.

How the London journals did scof
loftily when it was cabled from this side
of the Atlantic that Great Britain would
take part in bimetallic conference with
the United States and other nations.
They said it was not SO; that England
had no use for silver, and would not
condescend to meet the United States in
silver conference. They only proved
anew that the individuals who know
least about public matters are those that
think they know the most. When the
silver conference that Mr.. Goschen has
assured MS England will accept our invi-
tation to share in actually takes place,
these great newspapers will have some
more opinions, but they will be modified.

Col. Fuller's poetry really seems
to worry some of his newspaper sup
porters and all manner of attempts
are made by way of apology. The
Burlington Clipper, late convert to
the Fuller cause, says it was written
by some of the militia boys. Aha |!
Can it be possible that Levi gets his
poetry as be does his patents, through
the brain work of others, as is alleged
by Brattleboro people ? Now the
naked facts about "The Battle of
Keyes' Farm" are that it was written
by Fuller, read at banquet by him
and then given to the Reformer for
publication. And that he thought
that he was doing big thing nobody
who knows him doubts in the least.
1t is noticeable that the Brattleboro
Phoenix, that knows all about it, and
has every means of getting all the
data for whitewash has never said
one word about it. Strange, is it !?
No, not bit The Phoenix, and
everybody else in Brattleboro for that
matter, know the man and know that
this doggerel is just his size.

There is a growing independence
in the press of Vermont that is truly
gratifying. In the year of grace,
1892, the SITTER is not alone in call
ing "a spade a spade" Of course
the old foggy and the purchased cry
out "abuse' but the good work goes
on. "De world do move" There
is no "abuse" in a newspaper, which
has exceptional advantages In obtains
ing facts, telling the people plain, un-
vanished truths about candidates, es-
pecially those who put themselves
forward. When all newspapers cease
to be influenced by fat printing jobs,
or by cold cash, or by the hope of OBJ
tanning some "pull," and tell the peo-
pie the truth about the self-seekers,
then will the Levi Fullers go to the
rear and stay there. So let us all
pray.

The gubernatorial canvas goes on
apace. On the part of the Fuller
boomers it is simply matter of brag
and bluster coupled with the free use
OF money. BY these means alone
they hope to put the author of the
great and noted battle hymn in the
governors chair. They have the
shouters-all the little fellows-al-
most every town has them-who are
son the make" Look your town
over and see if the SITTER is not
right. Are not your leading support
ers Of Fuller men who have had some
thing and are under obligations to the
county bosses therefor, or men who
are everlastingly wanting, expecting
or hoping for something? Nine times
oul Of ten this is true, 60 anywhere
YOU may in the state. Further, the
SITTER is sorry to say it, but it is
true all the same, these are the men
who usually run the caucus, They
are always in attendance. These are
the hope and main stay of the promo
ters of the Fuller boom. If thev
are permitted to run the June caucus
es there is but little doubt but Col.
Fuller will be the next governor,
though by majority SO small as to
make every good Republican hang
his head in shame. Shall thev do it !?
This is question for The people.
They alone can determine it. If
they turn out and take the matter of
governor-makiug in their own hands,
where it belongs, these little fellows,
and Levi, too, will go to the rear
where they should be. The SITTER
has an abiding faith that this latter
will be the result.

RAIDED A WAREHOUSE
Two Men Arrested for a Theft n
OraugeYale.

Two Men Arrested for Theft at
Oraugevale.
Charles and James Scribner have been
arrested on complaint of Jacob Heintz.
who charges them with the theft of 500
grain-sacks, nine sacks of wheat, buggy
robe, and whip.
Heintz claims the property was taken
from his warehouse at Orangevale, and
he traced the wagon in which it was
hauled away to barn in the allev be-
tween G and d, Sixteenth and Seven
teenth streets.
He then informed the Sheriff and the
Chief OF Police, and later the missing
property was discovered in the barn,
Charles Scribner showing the officers
where 1t was concealed under some hav.
Scrlbner had been employed by Heintz.
and, together with his brother James. he
was locked up at the City Jail
The stolen property was taken to the
county jan, where two prisoners were
put TO work to carry it from the wagon
to the jail, one of them being w. Glen
non, who Is serving six months for petty
larceny.
After carrying in sack or two of the
grain, Glennon attempted to escape and
ran several blocks.
He was overtaken by Deputy Sheriff
AAto4, altGI IiNGIy chase, during Which
he fired two shots in the air. The furi-
tive finally stumbled and fell, and was
recaptured.
Deputy Alter visited the place again
yesterday, and found full set of lar-
ness, which he says is also stolen prop
erty.
Yesterday a new set of harness for
draft horses was found in the hav. where
the things stolen from Heintz We're found.
but it is not known to whom the harness
belongs.
Shortly after the grain was taken from
Heintz's barn his son discovered its loss
and followed the wagon-tracks for most
OF the day on Saturday, finally tracing it
to Scribner's barn and then notifying the
officers.
Chief Rodgers, Deputy Sheriff Alter
and officers Gibson, Maley and Special
Greer aided in making the arrests.
1t is not thought that James Scribner
was implicated in the theft, but he was
arrested owing to the property having
been found in his barn. He promptly
secured bondsmen and was released.
