A NOBLE PAIR.

No more gallant rescue than that OF
Walter Booth, OF Staten Island, by the
Bailey brothers from the wreck OF a
catboat off the Coney Island shore

The catboat was swamped by the
heavy sea, and the four men sailing in
her were in terrible peril, cllnglng to

above the water The accident was seen
from the shore and 1t was evident that
the Health Officers steam lighter. the
Two Brothers, which was on hand,
would be unable to approach the wreck
and rescue the nearly exhausted men.
John and Daniel w. Bailey are light
house keepers, They are sturdy young
men and were formerly on John Y. Nc

drowned, But one human life is suf-

Of glory for their noble work.
An effort is being made at Coney
Island to procure a medal for presenta-

been to refrain from any enlargement

we have no concern, and 1t Is not likely

power OF China declines in Asia the bet

MIR Franklin Bartlett concurs in the
opinion expressed by the District-Atlor-

held that "a contract for future delivery
when no actual delivery Is intended Is a
gambling contract"
Either Mr. Fe.Ows is wholly In error
as to the effect Of the amendment. or he
Is neg.cctful OF his duty AS District-At-

vENDER OF POLITICAL CHEsTNuTs

William Mckinley would be a great
statesman If he knew anything about
statesmanship, n great political econ.

liticil economy, "A great politician II he
kr,w anything about politics, and a
great orator II he had anything to say.

principles of statcCraft, economics and
politics. and having nothing to say that
merely a lond-mouthed. commonplace
vender of political chestnuts.
This would not, under some circum-
stances. be a serious matter. There are
lots Of politicians and even statesmen,
so-called, who peddle that sort Of truck,
and still retain the respect OF the com
munity.
But the trouble with Mckinley Ia that
his goods are spoiled. His chestnuts
are worm-eaten. The grub OF fact has
nestei in his antique theories and waXei
fat on their rottenness. The tree OF ro-
ntical wisdom has hudded, blossomed
and borne fruit since McKinley's crop
was gathered.
People know now that the foreigner
does not pay the tax, that cheap coats
do not make cheap men, that raising du-
ties does not raise wages-n short, that
protection does not protect
Mckinley Is trying to work off last
years fruit upon market overstocked

They are waiting for the bari. as the

Health and Ventilation.

One OF the sanitary officers OF the
Board Of Health calls the average house
"a reservoir OF poison" From the Fall
closing to the Spring opening of win
dows and doors the chances of health
are 60 per cent. lower than during the
free and easy life of Summer. 1T is
of vital Importance, this authority
says, that an upper opening be kept in
every living room. kitchen and sleeping
room for the escape of the foul air
emanating from life. labor and decay
Rooms that are not provided with an
upper register or a window ventilator
can be perfectly ventilated by lowering
the window fraction of an inch. This
imperceptlble opening is regular life
insurance. Cold can only be caught by
the mind. If this precaution is needed
all Winter long, day and night. there
will be reduction in lung and throat
diseases. In consumptive cases this
law should be rigidly Tnforced.

Don't daily. Shaving is the only thing q

Don't look down upon a man because he wears

Don't tell sea-serpent yarns anywhere but In
an inland town.
Don't try to be absent minded because II
seems to betoken genius; It isn't profitable.
Don't sleep late; life 10 short
Don't use your employers stationery In writ

Don't neglect to shun a garden In which q

Lung bathing.

Man may live without food several
weeks at stretch and be all the better
for the fasting, but he must have air,
5000 cubic feet Of 1t every hour of his
life for average health. Fresh air is the
most active agent in maintaining life
and preserving health Pure air destroys
impurities, just as pure water cleans
the impure. Foul air is the most active
factor in producing disease and death.
TIE lungs are composed of cells. These
cells strain the blood, and in so doing
fill up with the poison vapors or gases
which are bred in the bodies of all living
animals. Every one of these cells must
be flushed with fresh air and exercised
daily. The cold bath and the morning
exercise Is a good beginning. but aside
from this there must be lung in
the open air

A Work Bnp.

pretty work bag, which is really
set of six bags in one, Is a dainty gift
and a most useful one, as 1t holds tape,
spools, scissors, thimble, and the vari-
Gus furnishings of the work basket in
compact space that makes 1t espe-
cially of value in travelling. The six
little bags are made of ribbon, and are
about four inches wide and five inches
long when finished. Cover a piece of
cardboard Of hexagonal shape with silk
of the same shade as the ribbon. The
sides should each measure three inches.
Overland the bags together, leaving an
inch or more at the top, gather them act
the bottom and sew to the bottom piece
of covered cardboard, a bag on each
side of 1t. Draw up each one with silk
tape of the same shade as the bag. The
little bags may be made of silk, II pre-
ferred though, in that case. they will
need to be lined. Contrasting colors for
this are very effective.

Ounce MarmnIade.

Ounces make a delicious marmalade.
One of the best and most delicious Of
marmalades is prepared from apples and
the core and peeling of ounces left
after preserving. Put the peeling and
core in just water enough to cook them
and let them simmer. When they have
cooked for three-quarters of an hour
and are Thoroughly tender, strain off
the juice and measure it, Add two
pounds of apples, cored and peeled, to
an equal weight of juice, and add three
quarters of a pound of sugar to every
pound of this mixture. Boil 1t down
till 1t is a thick, clear marmalade, stir
ring frequently, so that 1t does not burn.
