CORNER OF DOLLY IN DRAWN WORK

n. rateness, and the windows of the stores which make feature of fine hand work are filled with most tempting displays of drawn work and lovely embroideries.
 Beautiful as these imported works arc, they are not the only ones we find here, for we have many good workers in this country We would doubtless have more if this drawn work could be more easily and quickly executed. The trouble too often is that the beginner starts out with too elaborate n pattern and without any previous experience. The better plan is to begin with sim pie design and gradually work up to an elaborate and beautiful pattern such as that shown in n dolly recently illus trated by The Art Interchange, which also furnished these simple rules for would be workers:
 It Is best first to decide what we wish our work to adurn, whether carving cloth, bureau scarf or tea table cover For any or all of these articles we should choose a linen of smooth texture, not too fine, and one ill which tho threads will pull easily.
 For doilies select very fine linen or linen cambric lawn. The latter quality of linen generally yields its threads cas- fly and need not bo shrunk. Take q piece of very dry white soap, rub it carefully over the linc of threads you wish to rcmovc, and you will find the labor greatly frightened. Tho most tcdi- ous part of the work is the drawing of the threads.

With one bound he tCds at his hr0dt him, Armitage? Is it as bad as that?''
 "Pick him up, and we'll get him on the bed. He's only stunned. didn't even hit him. Those things tumbled afterward," said Armitage as between them they raised the dead weight of the slender Adonis in their arms and bore him to tho bedroom. Here they bathed the wound with cold water and removed the uniform coat, and presently the lieutenant began to revive and look about him.
 ''Who struck me:' he faintly asked
 Your shotgun fell on your head, but I threw you down, Jerrold- I'm sorry I touched you. but you're lucky it was no worse. This thing is going to raise big bump here. Shall send the doc tor?'
 ''No; I'll come round presently We'll see about this thing afterward. -
 ''Is there any friend you want to see? Shall send word to anybody" asked Chester.
 ''No; don't let anybody come. Tell my striker to bring my breakfast. but want nothing tonight but to be let alone.
 At least you will let me help you undress and get to bed:'' said Chester.
 ''No; wish you'd go-both of you. I want quiet peace-and there's none of it with either of you.
 And so they left him. Later Captain Chester had gone to the quarters and after much parlcying from without had gained admission. Jerrold's head was bound ill bandage wet with arnica and water. He had been solaCing him self with pipe and whisky toddy and was ill n not unnaturally ugly mood. You may consider yourself excused from duty until your face is well again, by which time this matter will be de- cided. I admnnish you to remain here and not leave the post until it is. -
 You can prefer charges and see what you'll make of it, was the vehement reply. Devil a bit will help you out of the thing after this nights work :"

 President Cooley was born in AttiCsl- N. Y. in lS24 II" studied law and was admitted to the bar "f Michigan in ls45. In lS57 he was elected compiler of the state laws and the following wear became rcporter of the suprcnc court He organized the law department of the University of Michigan in 1852 and in 1864 was appointed justice of the su- preme court of Michigan and thrcc yClrs later was made chief justice. In 1885 he sought reelection, but was defeated
 When the interstate commerce com mission was organized, Judge CoOlcyis great reputation as n jurist impellcd President Cleveland to appoint him a member of the commission, and his as sociates elected him chairman III health compelled him to resign in 1891. Judge Cooley is a very unsentimcntal looking man, but he eloped with the girl who became his wife. Young law students who appear backward in their struggles with Blackstone, Kent and Parsons may find a grain of hope in the fact that after young Cooley had been holding down chair in a law office for a year the attorney he was studying with told him solemnly that he would never make lawyer if he studied law 50 years.

Mental Practice.

To pupils who possess great ambition.
 but arc not physically strong enough to practice at the piano the required num- Der of hours, the suggestion is made that time away from the piano might be very profitably utilized, and that too,
 ill the way of practice It most certain ly can be. When you cannot use your fingers, substitute your brains. Now for the way in which to do it. Each day before practicing at the piano take some of the extra time you would prac- tice if you could and go through your entire lesson (exccpting the bare me chanical exerciscs) mentally. Think it through, not only for the correct notes,
 but the time. accenting, lingering, and finally even the phrasing and expression as 1t becomes more and more familiar
 Not only think it all, but feel it. Work very carefully and slowly, especially at first, giving the parts requiring the most practice special and repeated attention.

HOW TO COOK MEATS.
h Plan by Which to Obtain the Best CuIi-
 mary Results.

A Plan by Which to Obtain the Best CuIi- mary Results. Broiling, roasting and boiling are to- day the commonost ways of dressing meats for food.
 The first lesson Is necessarily the care and management of the stove.
 One will boil corned beef in water at 2l2, its maximum temperature, while another whose observation has been cul- tivated to study effects obtains better results at lSO. The former wastes part of the gelatin and albumen, while the latter has learned that as albumen CO., agulatcS at the lower temperature very little waste occurs. and the meat is not toughencd.
 On the same principle of action tho gas stove and the charcoal fire arc so perfectly controlled that the broiling of steaks, chops and sauSagcs may bc ac- l complishcd with tLc least loss of fat and the best results in the work
 The frying pan requires perhaps moro skill than any other utCnsil of the kitch- en, since control of heat is everything For veal outlets, swvCtbrc;.lS, calves liver and any other delicate cooking tho proper degree of heat to cnuk through llle llcSil lilu tO elNc lllc ElSHi llul OI color are of primary importance. No less important is it that heat be mod crate in its action on the egg and bread crumbs coating the outlets, since if tho temperature be too high our savory dressing of the outlet will hc toughcn- ed and indigcstiblc. The stew, hash and meat pie call for quite as much, if not more. judgment and skill than the other methods of cooking.
 Slowing must be conducted slowly and on the same general plan as boiling flashing meat is a fine art. Meat can never bc twice cooked with out injury to the article; hence the proc ess of hashing should bc warming only. Perhaps the best way is strong steaming until it is completely warmed through. This completed, the hash may be best treated with q piquant catchup of mushroom or tomato and then be | quickly served

The mixture on tho fore head will burn, hut will not blister. and in the course of 10 minutes the headache will disappear under the stim- ulatinG effects of this remedy, leaving the patient feeling as if such distressing things as sick headaches were unknown to the human family.

FORMAL INDICTMENT.
SCENE IN THE SENATE FOR A HIS
 roRIc PAINTER.
The Remarks of Senator smith of New ter scy-senator HIII's sarcasIn and Senator Voorhees, usat-Like a Five Act Drama Opinion of the Letter.
lspccial Cnr.e.I.an,lcncr.l

wAsHINGToS, July 3I.-It was a scene for historic painter when the Rr',atest delibcrative body on this earth met to plead to an indictment by the president of tho greatcst nation on earth. The word is not too strong It was used in political pleasantly by Tom Rcctl, but 1t was like many another true wuri-spOken In jest. Every senator realized, and tho popular judgment must soon or late con- firm 1t, that the presidents letter to Chair man Wilson was n formal indictment and that each of the accused must hddrcss himself to 1t or by silence confess guilt. There was no shrinking from the issue The old Roman which is in such men as Vest, Smith. Gray and German, though ordinarily concealed by gentle ways and suavc manners, was thoroughly ruuscd, and they spoke their minds in such clear and explicit language that their speeches will hereafter bc rad as models of Eng fish. The scene was on n par with those, so often described, fin the days of Webster, Clay and Calhoun, of Benton, Wright Marcy and Felix Grundy, nor docs 1t yield in party importance to that in 1888, when seven Republicans stood up in turn and each looked into his open coffin" us he voted mot guiltyl' Unless all signs fail this Friday will be us memorable in party history as any of the memorable days when the senate asserted its dignity and displayed its highest talent.
 Full Galleries.
 The public forcsaw the great scene, and the audience was well suited to 1t. The reporters gallery was packed early. Every one of the l50 or moro journalists in the city was eager for place. Every scat was full, and back of those standing in tho rear, a long file stretched into the tcle-

ARTISTIC DRAWN WORK.
It Is Beautiful. but Requires Much Patience
 and Not n Little SkIII.

A few years ago, when the revival of hand work was still in its infancy, the importations of drawn work designs were few and simple, confined almost en- tircly to narrow borders found on doilies,
 traycloths and bureau covers. these coming mostly from Austria and Ger many. Since then the importations have gradually increased in scope and elabo-

Manilla paper pasted over the backs of pictures will exclude dust perfectly.
 A plaster cast can be made to look like ivory by soaking in melted wax.
 Low, small dishes of decorated china or of cut glass are used for bonbons and longer low dishes for celery.
 Old velvet, if the quality is good, can be made to do lasting service. If it is dampened on the wrong side. an iron set up on end and the back of the velvet drawn quickly across, the pile of the velvet Cor plushl will be raised, and it will look as 'good as new"

 Tho new Sayre election law, a modified from of the Australian ballot system, was put in operation for the first time, and it worked thoroughly. Tho ballot was a secret one. The voto was generally lighter than is 1892.
 The negroes, whose vote cut quite fig ure, either did not voto at all or voted al- most solidly for Oates in southern and middle Alabama. while in northern Ala bama a majority of them were for Kolb.

MORE ABOUT CLARK.
The Dakota Crook Who Gave Bogus
Orders.

Agent Drake, of the American Elk
press company, this morning exhib-
tied to a FREE PRESS reporter more
evidence of the rascality of the man
Clark who was last week convicted at
Milbank of uttering worthless paper
on "The United States Live Stock
Association of Mankato."
Clark was around here for month
about a year ago, and received by eX,
press a bundle of stationery, consist
ing of agents contracts, envelopes,
letter heads and receipts, all bearing
the name of the fake organization
Clark was shrewd enough to get his
printing done outside, knowing well
enough that to have the work done
here meant inquiry and possible ar
rest. The stationery bears evidence
of being issued from some small
country printery, for the pressWork is
poor and not at all in conformity with
typographical rules.
Agent Drake says that Clark paid
the charges, promising to call for the
stationery as it was needed. He called
once or twice. and that was the last
seen of him.

From the Argus:
A meeting was held in Iosco last
week of farmers looking to the or
ganization of a cooperative cream
cry company. The county will be full
of creameries within few years.
Poultry dealers report very little
demand for chickens and turkeys.
The price is only about half what it
was a year or so ago, due, it is said, to
the fact that eastern markets are now
supplied largely by Canadian farmers.
II. o. Thrall has four year old
Jersey COW which is certainly a record
breaker. Cream from it's milk cover
ing a period of only three days made
ST pounds of butter. This stands
ahead of anything we have ever heard
Of. If you have anything that will
beat it dol't be backward about trOt-
ting it out.
