cuban sentiment orowIng.

Delaware is not a big State, but
there is no doubt how she stands on
the Cuban question. Wilmington is
glowing with enthusiasm for the in
surgent cause and men of all parties
and creeds have unequivocally voiced
their sentiment against Spanish dom
nation of the ever-faithful isle. The
trend of sentiment in favor of the in
surgents is setting in strongly in this
country. II is one thing, however,
for Americans as individuals to ven
tilate their opinions on this subject,
and another for them to express
themselves as a nation. Uncle Sam
has no call to unnecessarily embroil
himself with Spain or any other for
eign power. With all our friend

ABOUT CAKE-MAKlNG.
Some Hints Which Housewives Would Do
Well to Remember.

Some Hints Which Housewives Would Do
Well to Remember.
There are many people who think
they have fulfilled their duty as cake
bakers if they present light cake
Yet light cake may be rs complete q
failure as heavy one. 1t may be per-
fectly risen, yet hard or dry and
feathery, like SO many balsers~asses,
suggesting nothing but sawdust. A
perfect cake is delicate and moist in
texture, and Of such constituency as to
fulfill the old housewives phrase and
"melt in the mouth" No cakes made
by baking powder are quite as tender
and moist as those risen with cream
tartar and soda or with eggs alone. 1t
is easy enough to make a cake tough
by overbeating ut one stage or under
beating at another. Where butter and
sugar are used, they must be thorough
ly creamed together, and the we'll
beaten yolls Of the eggs added. The
milk must now be put in by degrees. If
It is poured in too rapidly the cake will
surely curdle, ard it is impossible to
make cake Of fine grain from a
curdled mixture. When the cake has
reached this stage the whites Of the
eggs mist be beaten to stiff froth,
but not to too tough froth or the cake
will have lcathery constituency.
A large majority Of cakes are
spoiled at this stage by toughening the
white. 1t is unsafe to use any Of tho
patented heaters, because with such a
heater 1t Is an easy matter to beat the
egg too much. The old-fashioped
whisls, or spoon, Of fine wire, which
costs about five or six cents, is the
safest and best egg-beater. Patented
heaters are invaluable for beating salad
dressing and for many other purposes.
Beat the whites merely long enough
for them to cling to the inverted whisk.
Add them to the cake after the -four,
folding them in with a slender wooden
spoon, which is used by all the best
cakemakers to stir cake. When the
whites of the eggs have been put in the
oven should be ready. There should
be strong body Of fire, but the heat
should be turned off so that the oven is
only moderately hot. Put in the cake
carefully, and take care that it raises In
the pan before it begins to brown.
When it is fully risen, increase the
heat. A loaf of ordinary cake of av-
erage size will bake in forty or fifty
minutes. Loaf cake will take an hour
or an hour and quarter. A pound
cake ought to bake very slowly for two
hours, and fruit cake should be baked
four hours.-N. Y. Tribune.
