ical Discovery sets the wheels going.
It starts the torpid liver into health
full action, purifes and enriches the
blood, cleanses, repairs, and strength
ems the system, and restores health
and vigor. As an appetizing, re-
storative tonic, it sets at work all
the processes of digestion and nu-
triton, and builds up flesh and
strength.
For all scrofulous humors and
blood taints, and even Consump-
ton or Lung scrofula), if taken
in time, it's a positive remedy.
Unlike the sarsaparillas, which
claim to be good for the blood in
March, April, and May, "Golden
Medical Discovery" works equally
well at all seasons.
Unlike other blood-purifers, too,
it's guaranteed to benefit or cure,
in every case, or your money is re-

A Dangerous Strike.

The most marked of the great
economic changes which are taking
place in this wonderful country is the
daily formation of capital and industry
into monopolies. They. and not the
combinations of working men, form the
real danger to the community. What
more dangerous thing has there been
lately than the consolidation OF the coal
interests? l undertake to say that
about ninc tenths of the coal lands east
of the Allegheny mountains are con.
trolled by about half a dozen men.
That half dozen men could starve New
York next winter if they chose. The
military should have been called out
against this coal enterprise and not
against few working men who struck
for an hours pay for an hours work.
They have struck blow at every in.
dustry that makes wealth. By con
trolling the fuel necessary to make
steam they control every thing requir,

are not the strikers most to be feared

Don't forget that the tape worm

Useful Recipes.

SALLY LUNN.-Sift two teaspoon
fuls of baking powder with quart of
-four, then rub thoroughly into it two
tablespoonful of sugar, one tablespoon
full of butter. or butter and lard mixed.
and half teaspoonful of salt. Whip
two eggs separately. the whites until
stiff and the yolks until thick; make
we'll in the middle of the -four and
stir in gradually with a silver fork the
milk and eggs. Do not use the milk
all at once, as -four differs and the
dough for successful Sally Lunn must
be like very light biscuit crust. Stir
with light touch and bake in two
medium sized pans. The interior
should be faky and we'll done and the
exterior brown and crisp. 1t should be
eaten hot with butter and brok en-, not
cut.
APPLE CRUsTs.-Apple crusts are
excellent for breakfast or for simple
dessert Cut the crust from small slices
Of bread of medium thickness, spread
them with butter and sprinkle them
with sugar and little spice Of some
kind. Pare tart apples, cut them in
pieces the size Of the bread squares and
scatter with sugar and trifle of spice
Bake in the oven until the apple is
cooked and serve hot. Other fruits
that are quickly cooked, or preserves,
may be used in the same way, emitting
the spice. If peaches or a fruit jam
are used, a hot sauce, whipped cream
or meringue added to the crusts after
they are taken from the oven, will
change this simple into quite an ele-
CANT sweet dish. The apple crusts are
especially nice for children's desserts.
CRULLERs.-Two ounces of butter
Two eggs. Four heaping tablespoon
fuls of sugar. One-quarter of nut
meg, grated. Sufficient -four to make a
dough. Beat the butter and sugar to a
cream, then add the yolks of the eggs
and nutmeg; beat again until light;
then add the we'll beaten whites and
sufficient flour, gradually, to make a
dough that will roll out on the board.
Roll the dough out into a sheet a
quarter.inch thick, cut into pieces about
two inches square; now make five in-
cisions. cutting to within one-third Of
an inch at either end; take up every
other strip; fold them in the middle
and drop them quickly into boiling fat.
When brown, drain. dust with powdered
