All other earthly pleasures are mock
cry-in comparison to the contcntmcnt
of a loving home. Other joys may last
for day and excite our interest for II
time. but they fade away and leave us
unsatisiicd. While they are present
we feel not the emptiness of this excite
ment. but with their vanishing our
hearts hunger for the blessings which
home alone can give. Even they who
have never known what IL is to have
loving hearts welcome them on tho
threshold, and loving hands minister to
their comfort, know that these are life's
most precious gifts, and thirst for
draught from this cup of peace.

"Gray hair is so common now, said a
barber the other day, that one wonders
what II comes from. Young men have
it in profusion, and young women are
very proud when they have coiffure
in which gray has n prominent part.
] attribute the prevalence of gray hair
to frequent cutting and soap. The doc
Z tors speak of Inherent tendencies, and
old women gabble of early piety; but
soap and the barber do more toward
taking color and strength out of hair
than anything else. The singeing Of
hair is done to prevent the oils from
exuding from the ends of clipped hairs,
and singeing is in this regard better.
But ammonia-loaded soaps are the worst
factor. Many people use ammonia
when washing their head, and it enters
into all shampoo mixtures. 1t is also
an ingredient of some soaps. II dries
up the scalp and robs the hair of all its
moisture. That is where most of the
gray hair of to-day comes from.

ON THEIR OWN PETARD.

Since the publication of the industrial,
financial and debt statistics OF the New
England states by the census bureau,
which statatements show the average
farm and per capita indebtedness there
to equal, and frequently surpass, those
Of the west, the New England papers are
giving less attention to the mortgaged
Indebtedness of The west and are defend
ing their own. Here is an excerpt from
the Springfield, Mass, Union, in refer
erence 10 the situation III that state,
where the per capita Indebtedness Is
SIT:
Our manufacturing Industries are IN
full operation. giving profitable employ
meut 10 more people than ever. Some ol
our cities and towns have enjoyed con-
tinuous boom of building improvements
and cur once deserted farms are no longer
giving US any trouble. Massachusetts
has been growing rapidly in population
and there is plenty OF employment for our
capital.
1t is gratifying to be thus assured Of
the thrift and well doing of the east, but
putting the census statistics and the
Unions statement together it Is clear
that the thrift is the result Of, or IN some
way contingent upon, he indebtedness
of the people of tie state, condition
alleged to exist in the west and which
has been magnified and worked to our
discredit in many ways.

OUR MISSOURI RIVER BROTHERS.

The Kansas City Gazette and Leaven-
worth Times would come the smart
Alec on the EAGLE and the Wichita
Board of Trade, touching the closing OF
the Burton Car works. Both these papers
with heft of wisdom that was no
doubt intended to crush all farther
questioning. observe that the reason the
works closed was that they didn't pay.
The reason they didn't pay, If these
papers don't know, was because OF ''the
Missouri river basing line robbery and
steal. The railroads would not lay down
iron for structural work in Wichita
from Pennsylvania and other eastern
markets, for the same rate. that Is, rate
per ton per mile. that those roads would
Law the same iron down at any Missouri
river point. Mark YOU. we did not ask a
Missouri river rate but n through rate,
and this rate was promised when the
works were built. The roads demand an
additional local rate which amount:
TO mora than the entire through rate. II
the abo,e editors know anything about
the meaning of this Missouri river
basing line outrage they know thai
what we above state IS not only ths
truth but that the merchants % theiI
respective towns, by the carload lot, pay
| less freight. in lots, on sugar, coffee
/ fruit. etc. coming from the Gulf
/ THROUGH WICHITA. than Wichita pays
and they lnow-but they won't ao
knowledge is-that this kind Of work
retards, hindefs and largely parallels
all the commercial, industrial and man
ufacturing interests of interior Kansas
/ consequently OF the entire state. Blu
/ what Is the use of talking; we hav,
/ written hundreds OF columns on TN
subject, which no Missouri river edito
could be persuaded to Rad in thous

them. for beans are sold by the pound,
and these things add to the weight
Rinse them carefully through several
waters. then set them To soak in a large
dish. with an abundance of water.
BY morning they will have absorbed
large quantity, and may then be put
into kettle with the water that re-
mains. to which more is added. Put in
a small handful of salt. and allow them
to cook slowly for some hours; the
longer they are boiled the more health
ful and nutritious they are, and the less
liza BILE to cause indigestion. When they
begin to break into pieces, put into the
kettle lump of butter as large as a
hens egg. If a soup is desired, let
them cook some time after this. II
they are to be baked. pour them into
the pan or jar. cover them closely, and
place them in the even.
1t is well to taste them and see that
they have proper amount OF salt and
more butter may be added if desired.
One of the great mistakes in baking
beans is allowing them TO dry up This
should never be. They should be full
of liquid. and under no circumstances
become hard and chippy. Some beans
are about as relishable as cherry pits,
all of the flavor and delicacy having
been baked and dried out of them.
Those who have never tried preparing
beans without pork, may. if they can
rid themselves of the bonds of tradi-
ton. find most easily cooked. health

ruptcy For my part, l am glad to see

Tie Mckinley bill only raised the
tariff on three classes of articles. aud
those were velvets, pushes, iaces, etc.
There was tariff of SO per cent. on all
silk goods before the Mckinley bill was
passed. The Mills bill placed % per cent.
on silk, excepting few articles. The
industry has been protected since the
Morrill, tariff bili of 1862, and it has been
growing rapidly ever since. Protection
should be main aimed until we build up
the industry sufficiently to make all our
own raw, as well rs manufactured silks.
Your correspondent will observe that
| Notwithstanding the production OF 500,
| coo, 900 worth of silk goods III ten years
| by the factories in this country, under a
tariff of 30 per cent. ad ralorem, we
still import, every year, about $35, '66,
i 900 worth of silk goods. If foreign

pay 80 per cent. duties on them, ard
still sell such quantities at profit,
what would become of our silk
| factories. if the duties were taken
| off: They would be ruined,
and no one knows what prices the peo'
pie would pay for silks, when that WAS
done? If these 42j factories now pro
! duce - per cent OF the silk goods n.5G,
twice that number would produce more
than is used, and the $50, .66, 090 now
paid for foreign silks would be kept in
| this country 10 enrich our people. The
! increase of wealth would enable ali the
people to wear silks, as the goods would
| be cheap, and they would have the cash

ried out, the masses will be too poor to
