The Democratic party authorities Of
Missouri have made such open announce
meat Of their devotion to free coinage
by this country alone. at the ratio Of
10 TO /. that people generally have come
10 abandon the Democracy Of Missouri
as lest, for some time 10 come. at least.
But there are evidences that common
sense IS beginning to reassert its sway
in Missouri as well as elsewhere. Colonel
Charles II. Jones. editor of the ST. Louis
Post-Dispatch. has made that paper. for
long time, one of the most prCnounced
advocates in the land of the nonsense
involved in calling upon this Government
10 stamp fifty cents worth of silver as a
dollar, and o compel all men TO whom
q dollar is due TO accept one OF those
spurious dollars. But the directors of the
corporation have notified him that his
course upon this subject is injuring the
business Of the paper and .he value of
the property. and a contest is now going
on between him and them. in which they
are cndeavoring 10 Dust him from the
management of the paper upon this
ground. Directors OF corporation
usually succeed IN contests Of this kind.
80 that Colonel Charles Ii. Jones may
solace himself with the reflection that
he will soon be without job. and when
he applies to people who have means
with which to conduct the enterprises
that supply employment for some
thing TO Go. he viii find how his views
regarding this most important subject
are regarded by those whose interests
are affected by them. He will get no
employment In any business where his
Wild views can by any possibility have
any relation whatever TO the conduct of
the enterprise.
But this controversy is most gratifying
as showing that Missoiri IS waking up
20 the absurdities OF the free-silver
clamor as well as all other parts of the
country. The people who have so far
controlled the machinery OF the Demo
cratic party In Missouri have been able
to commit the party nominally 10 free
silver, but there must be State con-
vention next spring before members OF
the national convention are selected.

Parents and Children.

About the worst thing parents can do is
to discuss the failngssof children before
them. The next worst thing is for ono
parent to attempt to punish the child and
the other parent protest against it. Either
action will damage the respect of the child
for one or the other of its parents, and if
there is one thing more than another that
parents want to preserveit is their dignity
before their children. A child who gets
the idea that one parent is at variance
with the other on the question of disci-
pline will make both unhappy and render
itself decidedly Objectionable by playing
off one parent against the other. If you
want to have any harmony in the family,
get together on the question of disciplin-
ing the children-at least in their presence
and then if you want to quarrel on
methods do it in the privacy Of your own
apartments, where you can have it out
without lowering yourselves in the eyes
OF the children. Star.

Courtship and Marriage.

Marriage has been truly compared to
the unmasking hour of masquerade
ball. my markets made" is the usual
decision, and consequently both allow the
masks to slip from their faces and discover
that they courted myth and married
reality The wife frets over hard work,
if in humble life; worries over servants
and the demands of society, if in more af-
fluent circumstances. The husband finds
his jolly companions at the club far more
agreeable than the wife he married mot
the sweet little creature that was courted
by the model young MANI, and thus the
chasln of Indifference is widening between
them daily, and home has no charm for
either unwilling captive. Let each remom-
Der that courtship is only a mask at BEST
and by striving to penetrate its disguise
be better prepared to meet the revelations
which must be brought to light when the
masks are finally removed, and after it is
too late to retrace their steps. Have no
secrets from each other with which to
weigh down your after life. Be frank and
honest, tell each other of the faults which
will be revealed in time anyway and strive
to overcome them by each assisting the
other Should these faults break the en-
gagement it is far better so than let them
break the heart after marriage.-Philadel

To Cook Chickens.

A hint to housekeepers when chickens
are to be cooked: Do not put them before
the fire without first removing the TEN
dons of the le,:s, or drumsticks. To do this,
cut the skin mt the joint where the feet
unite with the drumstick and twist tho
two pieces little to bring out the white
tcndons. There are few in front and II
large bunch al the back of tho legs incloscd
in thin layer of musclelike membrane
that makes them look like one large mus
Gle. Scrape eff the thick layer and divide
the tendon into its smaller parts, and they
may be drawn out, one by one, by passing
a skewer under them and pulling vigor-
ously. The despised drumstick is now
dainty piece of dark but tender meat,
which may even be Dreaded and cooked by
itself as a specially choice dish in various
ways. Even where it is served with other
cuts, fricassce stew, roast or broil, the
sinews should always be removed.-Phila-
