Sauces and Condiments.

Pepper is simply a general stimulant for
the digestive tract. 1t braces the stomach,
gives a sense of warmth and causes flow
of the digestive fluids of the stomach.
Mustard has somewhat similar action,
while salt and vinegcr serve the double
purpose of supplying the needs so far as
saline matters are concerned and rendering
oleaginous matters fit for speedy absorb
ton.
other sauces have many merits, especially
when one partakes Of fish or salads. A
dressing is absolutely necessary for a boiled
or baked fish. and no salad outside of the
watercress or celery is fit to be taken into
the stomach without the stimulus to di-
gestion which the dressing furnishes.-Jen-
ness Miller MAGAZINE.

JOSIAH QUINCY.

Members Of SIX Generations Have Borne
the Name
An intelligent. but yet perplexed.
correspondent asks the Boston Her
aid to enlighten him as to the num-
Der of Josiah Quincys who have come
down in direct line in Massachusetts,
We will try to do this.
The first Josiah Quincy was the
father of the pre-revolutionary pat
riot, and survived him. living con-
siderably into the lifetime of his
grandson, the Josiah Quincy who was
president of Harvard college and the
great mayor of Boston.
The second Josiah Quincy, his son.
was one of the most promising young
men of Boston in the days immc di-
ately preceding the revolutionary
war. He died before 1t commenced,
and was esteemed a great loss to The
patriots
The third Josiah Quincy was u rep
resentative in congress from Massa
chusetts, the mayor of Boston. in
whose administration the Quincy
market was built. and president of
Harvard college
The fourth of the name was also
mayor of Boston, president of the
Massachusetts senate, and later har-
Dor commissioner. His Oldest son,
who is still living. was named Josiah
Philips Quincy. He had no taste
for public life. but has done very
creditable wock in literature. His
son is the present Josiah Quincy. the
sixth to bear the name, though his
father has it not in the exact form of
his early ancestry.
The Quincys were anti-slavery
men by conviction and tradition. Ed
mund Quincy, the brother of the
third Josiah. was the well-remem-
bered associate of Garrison. The
third Josiah Quincy lived to great
age He bought the property at the
foot of State street on which the
long row of granite stores is erected,
and projected that great improve
ment after he was 80 years old, and
also wrote a life of John Quincy
Adams at the same time. Besides
being distinguished in public life, he
was man of remarkable business
foresight and sagacity and Of rare adj
ministrative talent.

Delerate Thomas Generally Criticized
For killing Delegate Edwards Bill
S0sci1! Z5lsgramt0 fas Register.
CHARLESTON, w. VA, February p
Delegate Thomas, OF Putnam, has been
sharply criticized both on and off the
focr Of the House for killing Mr.. Ed
wards's bill requiring monthly payment
OF wages, as stated in the REGISTERS
report of the legislative pro-
ceedings. The patron of the bill him
self declined to vote for it with the
amendment. Mr.. Thomas, who was
elected GS representative or
the miners, argued that the
Dill was unconstitutional in that 1t pro-
posed class legislation. II specified
that corporations alone must pay wages
every two weeks, while a decision or
Supreme Court On a similar law passed
in 1883 makes it a violation OF the State
constitution. The decision referred TO
saws: ut is not competent for the
Legislature 70 single out owners and
operators OF mines and manufac-
turers OF every kind and provide
that they shall bear burdens not i'm
posed on other owners of property or
employers of labor" Another decision
states that Il is not lawful to grant such
corporations any special privileges.
Mr.. Thomas favors bill to enforce
payment OF wages every two weeks, and
regards Mr.. Edwards course as an at
tempt to make party capital by passing
laws purDorting to be favorable to
labor's interests, which must afterward
be annuiled by q Democratic Court.

There seems to be a diversity Of opn-
ion regarding the feasibility OF placing
an arc light permanently in the Pres5y-
terian Church in kirkwOod. The ladies
all seem 10 think that the incandescent
lights far excel the arc light. They
claim all they want is TO have the power
of the incandescent light Increased in
order to give the congregation a chance
to see, while the gentlemen think that
one arc light would prove as satisf0c-
tory as the other lights, and think 4
great deal could be economical by using
it. Now, which snail it be?
