nounced, nor is it possible to detect the
molasses. When the beans are in the
pot, half or three-quarters of a pound
of salt pork well streaked with lean
should be placed on top, and then
enough warm water poured into the pot
to just cover the beans.
Beans should be baked in an oven Of
even temperature for either day or a
night, or, in other words, about twelve
hours. 1t is better to bake them in the
daytime, for then they can receive
more attention. AS the water gradually
evaporates more should be added from
time to time, but care should be taken
to keep the beans covered. This must
be done until the beans are nearly
ready to be taken out, when no more
water should be added, so that they will
not be so moist as to become mashed or
broken.
The pot can remain in the oven.
where it will simply keep hot for an in
definite time without injury. Beans
should be served in covered dish.
Beans that have been left over are de-
licious warmed up in stewpan with
little water added, and many bean cpl
cures think the more times beans are
warmed over the better they are.
In number of New England towns
the local baker bakes beans for half the
town. Saturday nights the pots are
taken to the bake shops, where the
baker marks each one with the initials
of the owner and places them in his big
oven. Next morning the owners call
for their beans and pay the charge of
ten cents, and invest ten more in
brown bread. 1t is an amusing sight
on Sunday morning to see a line of cit
liens going from the bake-shop to their
homes, each with bean pot on one
arm and loaf of brown bread on the
other.
Good old fashioned brown bread is
the proper accompaniment for baked
beans, and it is as difficult to get the
genuine article in New York as it is to
find good baked beans. Here is a
famous recipe for Boston brown bread
OF the proper kind: One cup rye or
graham flour, | cup of white flour, 2
cups Indian meal, cup molasses
tscant), 2 teaspoonfuls soda, 4 tea
spoonful salt, cup sour milk and ~
or "a cups water.
Steam for three hours and then dry
in the oven for half an hour. The
brown bread should be eaten warm ana
what is left over can be either steamed
again or toasted.--N. V. World

Spring Gowns.

New spring tailor-gowns show cloth,
velvet and shepherd's-check silk made
in two ways: First is skirt of ladies'
cloth in golden brown; this in mod
erately faring circle shape, and accom-
panying it fancy waist made of cream
and golden brown checked taffeta, with
full sleeves of the silk and folded col
lar and belt of chestnut-brown velvet.
Another model shows gored skirt of
green and white shepherds check, very
full in the back and silk-lined through
out, with a very narrow interlining
near the hem of fiber chamois To be
worn with the skirt is the nattiest of
jacket-bodices made of green velvet.
The lower portion reaches about eight
inches below the waist line, and this Is
cut into oblong tabs that are lined
with the checked silk. Those towards
the front, and in the Immediate back,
are turned back upon the velvet por-
ton of the tab and fastened with a
tiny button. The jacket is cut away in
the neck, showing a portion OF. the
fitted silk vest, and the lower part of
the sleeve is slashed and turned back
with facing of the taffeta.-N. Y.

last, they should be shaded simply with
faint touches of green.
A band of velvety pansies across a
card makes, also, very attractive de-
sign. The coloring of these dear little
flowers is so endlessly varied, and the
fancy for special color is so different,
too, that it is hardly necessary to tell
how to paint them. Always, except in
some few OF the very darkest purple
pansies, there is at least tiny spot Of
white in the center Of each blossom,
and the dark shadows on the three
lower petals should be black. This card
will be most effective if the colors of
the flowers are chosen with some va
riety, perhaps two purple and yellow,
one very dark purple and one all yell
low and white. dark shadow, made
Of mixture of black and green paint,
behind the blossoms will improve them.
The line each side of the band of pam
sizes may be painted in gold, as also the
little fine decoration beyond, and the
lettering looks well with slight shad-
ing of green or purple.
The white narcissus, which Is essen
TALLY an Easter flower, is dainty and
very easy to paint. The shadows on
the petals should be pale transparent
gray-green, darker where the edges
turn over, and the center deep orange
yellow. A narrow gold outline to the
flowers is pretty, and delicate, feathery
gold grasses make an artistic finish.
A bit Of verse is often the most at
tractive part of an Easter card. One OF
Emerson's stanzas is quite apropos:
Hearts are dust; hearts loves re-
main; hearts loves shall meet thee
again"
On a card where Easter lilies are
growing upon their tall stalks among
Ginning bells are these words:
I'VE deep-toned bells,
Do We with voice sublime
Announce the solem dawn
OF Easter day."
Another verse which seems to suit
the mood of the season Is this:

A BAND OF PANSIES.

Indian red in the shadows, and for the
thorns; the leaves will be prettier II
rather pale. For the large letters for
the word Easter, good effect will be
made by leaving them white, or paint
ing them pale green with an outline Of
gold, and gray shadow to bring them
out more sharply. 1t is a good plan,
by the way, in this kind of work, to
use these greenish or brownish gray
shadows as much as possible, for they
give a much more real effect to ones
work, and add very much to its
beauty, The same design is charming,
too. when treated in yellow and silver,
making the flowers the pretty, uncom-
mon bright yellow of Cherokee roses.
With the crescent of silver, and the out
lining Of the letters, and perhaps mar
row, irregular edge of Silver, the card
would be quite original.
Ascension lilies are, of course, used a
great deal oftener than any other
flower in the designs for Easter cards,
and, therefore, variety in their treat
ment is especially difficult of attain
ment. A novel idea is shown in the
illustration. The card should be quite
large one, perhaps six inches by four.
The lilies and the large letters of the
word Easter lin the shape Of cross
should be carefully drawn first in PEN
Gil, and then the clouds may be washed
In with large brush. These clouds
may be colored to suit the taste of the
artist A good contrast with the white
OF the Lilies is deep yellow and browns,
fading into pale yellow and touches of
PINK The flowers and Letters should be
lett white and the brush carried care
fully around the pencil outlines. When
the painting of the clouds has been al
lowed to dry thoroughly, the lilies may

Great Wheel at Earps Court run away,
and revolving upon its axle with such
frightful rapidity that the various cars
become blurred, producing the optical il
lusions that they are all fixed together and
form one continuous car. The rage for
wealth here has produced very similar
effect to that. Glass is muddled with class,
principles and prejudces, religious obstac-

and wrong, are so hopelessly run into
each other that it is no longer possible to
determine which is which, Gold, gold,
gold, give us gold, more gold, and still
more gold at any cost! Take it for Cos

the down grade is the most dangerous and

PLUTOCRACY AND SUFFERING.

Big crops mean low prices and short
crops mean high prices. This is what the
farmer hears on all Sides He is told
that the Almighty and the abnormally
big crop are wholly responsible for the
low prices. The manufacturer and all
producers are told that overproduction
has brought starvation prices. How silly
how monstrous, how devilish are such as
sertions. Currency contraction has
wrought the worlds ruin. The worlds
bondhOlders, money owners, creditors
know this fact. 1t is they who profit by
low prices. 1t is they who demonetized
to retire our legal tender greenbacks. 1t
traction and approve every form of in
fation. 1t is they who have ruined the
country, brought bankruptcy every
where, carried distress to every humble
home and charged the sufferings Of their
victims to the Almighty, to mans thrift
and to OverprOduction. They say the
money question, the reconciliation Of
silver is a dead issue. They fear the
peoples investigation. These questions
are indeed life to them and death to the
producers. What more important ques-
tons could engage the thought of a ma
ton than questions of life and death to
it's citizens?
The money question underlies; it lies
deeper than all these questions of big
crops, bountiful harvests, the graciousness
of the Almighty and mans overproduc-
ton. Learn the relation of big crops
and abundant production to dear and
scarce and cornered money and charge
the woes of the human race to the in
EQUITIES OF man and the greed of heart
less plutocracy. E. A. T.
