4 he New Tariff.

Senator Hill at the Saratoga Conventional
The new tariff law largely reduces
taxes upon the D0cessaries OF life,
upon the implements of busbandrv
and wearing apparel Of the citizen
and substituted for such sound taxes
an additional tax upon liquors 10
the amount of $50, 100000 1.-THE
new bill errs at all, it is in the direc
ton of safety and moderation and
not because 1t is too radical, and
while ardent Democrats NAV criticise
its conservatism it does not lie in the
mouths of our adversariea to con-
denim it upon any such grounds.
The bill properly strikes blow at
paternaiism by abrogating the ruin
system of bounties to producers of
sugar provided for in the Mckinley
law. True American doctrine is that
every mans business should stand
alone, unaided 10y governmental
favoritism extended or hounties paid
from d common treasury The elim-
inatiOn of sugar bOunties saves to
the Anne rican people nearly fifteen
millions of dollars annually. II it be
said that the new law in q single re-
spect Is uuduly favorable to ore par
ticular trust, my answer is that the
old law favored q dozen trusts where
more complete and perfect answer to
Republican critics is that the very
tariff duty complained of was reduced
more than one-half from what was
contained in the Mckinley law

In Which ParisiaHs of Both Sexes Sir
Strong Alcohol Upon System.
Absinthe is one Of the special marks of
Paris Whether you be on the Boulevard
or at Belleville, the green drink, at the
"green hour as they call it, is a marked
feature of the landscape, according to the
New York Sun, which gives these details
about it: In general this drink takes all
the place in Paris which Americans give
to whisky, rum, gin and brandy, cock
tails and mixed drinks. In Paris alb
sinthe means strong alcohol. That is the
central truth. It is the strongest form of
alcohol for drinking purposes. Tho lab
sinthe' part of it, the herb, is in co1npar-
ison almost an accessory. The peculiar
feature is the hour or hours of drinking.
Parisians regard the drinking Of their
absinthe out Of certain hours q gross
piece of ignorance and bad taste. Few
people in the smarter sections Of the city
dare to brave the walters elevated eye
brows or their neighbors' looks of curious
amusement which are sure to follow a de-
mand for absinthe after luncheon or after
dinner. Even at night, at midnight, or
at q. m. absinthe may not be drunk.
Absinthe is an aperitif, drink which
people take to give them appetite and
tranquilize the nerves before a meal.
Along with absinthe there are many other
aperitifs-vermouths, amers and proprie-
tary nostrunls, all served with the water

eral, must be diluted with at least three
times their weight in water. You drink
them all from goblets, sitting ON the side

The Cup of Tea Abroad.

There is nothing moro refreshing Mt all
times than good cup of tea, but it is sell
dom found at home or abroad. There is
a tradition that only at Carlsbad can tea
in its perfection be drunk. This lets in
light on the mystery of the problem
the solution is the character of the water
with which the tea is made. Tho best
means of initiating the soft water of Carls-
bad is to add pinch of soda to the water
before it is boiled for brewing tea. A
pretty silver bonbon box filled with bicar-
Donate of soda should be the vassal of the
Kissing urn and have its place with equal
rank by the side of the caddy.
The Russians, so famous for their tea,
put the tea into boiling water, and not the
Eoiling water upon the tea, as, they main
tain, the temperature of the water is low
cred by pouring it into the teapot. 1t is
conceded that tea should come into contact
with boiling water (212 degrees F. and
should remain at that temperature as near
1y as possible for several minutes. Take
an ordinary brown earthenware teapot.
Put into it the required quantity of wa
ter, either cold or hot, and place it over
the fire or gas stove. When the water boils
and blows out of the hole in the lid, which
will be in a few minutes put in the tea,
place the lid upon the teapot and put it on
the table to draw for few minutes and
then pour it into the silver teapot, leaving
the tea leaves in the earthenware pot.
And in Spain, according to writer in
Harper'S Bazaar, Il branch from the luxu-
RANT lemon verbena tree is served with
the tea. A leaf is pinched off and thrown
into the empty cup; then the hot tea is
poured upon 1t, and Immediately the lem
on verbena leaf is withdrawn, giving a
delicate fragrant bouquet to the tea and
imparting, the Spaniards say, q valuable
stomachio quality to the afternoon cup Of

ment. There was seemingly no cXplana-
ton how it could produce thought. But
workers carefully noted its form and soon
named the larger portion cercbrum ard
the smaller cerebCllum. Psychologists
gradually learned by experiments and by
deductions in certain diseases that the Ger
ebrum governs muscular movement and
intelligence, whilc the ccrebcllum is vi
tally connected with breathing and circI-
1ation.
mot satisfied with this, cxperimontcrS
have gone further, so that cerebral locali-
cation has become definite part of tho
study of the brain and its functions. This
can be best studied perhaps when we con-
slider that for every muscular act there
must como from the brain q nervous inn
pulse which stimulates that muscle. 1t
required years of study to prove that tho
same area on the brain always controlled
the same muscles, but when it was once es-
tablished then cerebral locaIization WAS
fixed on a firm basis. At this day not

tongue and lips (aphasia) a certain part Of
the brain at the left and lower side nearly
always was injured or pressed upon by a

keys from which this portion of the brain
was removed resulted in paralysis of the
vocal organs. Psychologists by careful ex-
periments and deductions in time ascer-
tanned the exact parts that control the

body.
The anterior part of the cerebellum was

THE COOKING OF FOOD.

Has Science Stopped Outside the Door of
the Domestic Kitchen?
Professor Edward Atkinson has given
long careful and scientific study to the
art of cooking as now practiced, and his
conclusions on the subject are as follows:
learned that the way to spoil meat was
to boil it; the way to cook an egg was not
to boil it; the way to render the best meat
indigestibfe and to convert the finest fla
yor into bad smells was to subject it to
the barbarous processes commonly prac-
ticed at excessive heat on the iron stove
and range. I learned that slow cooking
at a moderate temperature is the only rule
in 95 cases out Of 100. 1t is the only rule
in respect to meat, fish and bread
An example of improper and proper
cooking is given in the egg: If an egg is
boiled-that is to say, if it is subjected to
heat of 212 degrees T. or over for 10
minutes-the yolk will become mealy, but
the albumen, or white of the egg, be-
| comes hard, horny and indigestible. If
| the egg is subjected to the high boiling
heat for only three minutes, the white re-
mains soft, but the heat will not pene-
trate the yolk to any considerable extent.
In that condition the called soft boiled
egg is palatable, nutritious and whole
some, but the yolk is substantially I'M
! cooked Subject the egg to moderate de-
"
| 100 degrees F., for 10 minutes, or even at
| a less temperature for longer time, and
| then the whole substance of the egg is
| cooked to a soft and jellylike condition
| which is digestible and nutritious.
Again, given a tough piece of meat, to
! boil it is to spoil it. 1t may be boiled to
rags according to the common express
! sion the juices may be extracted, and the
meat may appear to be tender, but it is in
fact stringy. Each fiber is horny and sep
| arately SO tough that it is unfit to eat.
Subject the same tough muscle to heat
| of about 100 degrees for q long period of
time, either in water or in a closed vessel
in it's own juices, subjected to heat out
side, then while the favors and juices are
all retained tho muscle is disintegrated,
and the whole becomes as tender as the
tenderest part of the animal. The beef's
heart which is the toughest muscle, when
dealt with in this way, may be made as
tender as the tenderloin. A tough old
fowl may be converted into q tender roast
| ed chicken somewhat higher in flavor than
true chicken.
If these exceptions to the common prac-
/ tice are sustained it follows of necessity
| that true science of cooking can not be
| established without very great and revo-
lutionary changes. Moreover, it becomes
manifest that if the apparatus in use is bad
the art of cooking must remain crude,
empirical and commonly bad.
Professor Atkinson's theory and prac-
tice of applying heat to food are to box it
up in q nonhcat conducting chamber to
which he can convey heat by measure
and maintain it at any suitable and even
temperature, the heat being supplied by
an oil lamp or gas burner.
