sY-It is perhaps not surprising that
a democratic administration should
break down all round in the more ina
portant functions of government, but
it is rather strange that it cannot even
gum a postage stamp correctly. The
current stamps are the worst of their
kind. They are not up to the standard
in color and won't stick This is what

such an imbecile and at the same time
such hagitious party 1t ought to be

cessful philateic experiments and hung

rHThe administration has tariff
war on its hands, and it hardly knows
what to do with it Had the reciproc-
ity system been continued it would
know precisely how to handle it; but it
threw away the weapon of defense
which it held, and now it is shaking
before the bulldozing undertaking Of
Germany and other countries That it
will submit is quite probable, and that
the continental countries, even If the
differential sugar should be repealed,
will continue their difPerential war is
also quite probable. All this comes OF

Gee of tho Beet and Most PaIatable of
French Desserts.
A well-made apple meringue pie is
one of the best of French desserts, even
better than the favored lemon meringue
pie.
Stew tart, well-havored apples until
they are thoroughly tender, adding
only water enough to prevent its burn
ing. Sweeten them when done and
press them through a fine strainer. To
every pint of apple sauce add a table
spoonful of cornstarch, mixed to thin
paste, the grated rind and juice of one
lemon, and little grated nutmeg.
Let the whole cook over a fire for
three minutes, stirring it constantly.
Then fill pie plates that have been
lined with paste, and let them bake in
a hot oven for half an hour. At the
end of this time remove the pies, and
when they are cooled little make
meringue of two eggs and two heaping
tablespoons of powdered sugar for each
pie, and spread them roughly over the
pies. Dredge the meringue thicllly with
sugar and set the pies again IN the
oven to cook for ten minutes. The oven
should be so slow that at the end of
that time they are delicately brown

so Won need not think me a stranger,
but an old friend eager to serve you"
She caught his hand with her frail
little one and turned her face away
without speaking. He sat by her I'M
til she slept, and he felt, as Oliver had
done, that she was woman child, not
a woman, and doubly dear by that
clinging heiplessness.
A week had Mrs. Minny been sick at
the switchman's house when DR.. John
telegraphed to Oliver to send 4 lawyer
to the station. He also added: IF
Hannah Patten is in Denver, send her
along" He had telegraphed to New
castle and found she was not there.
When by special order the train
stopped at the lonely brown house, DR..
John was on the watch. He went daily
to the track for papers, having estab-
| lished communication with different
conductors. He had received no an
swer to his message sent the day be-
fore, and he surmised that Oliver, with
his usual attention to business, had
sent a lawyer directly the message was
received. The station was only night
and part of days ride from Denver.
To his surprise and dismay, Oliver him
self stepped down from the train,
turned and assisted a tall lady to de-
scend, lady much burdened with par
cells and carrying large basket.
There was no chance to speak until
the train had gone; then Miss Patten
said, calmly:
where is she?"
The doctor pointed to the house. 81

A delicious Table Sauce.

Here is nice store sauce to have in
the house, good with steaks, chops,
ETC., and to flavor gravy: Take a pint
of walnut vinegar what is left at the
bottom of pickle, boil it with four
shallots cut in slices, little more
spice, such as peppercorns, allspice,
mace and cloves, teaspoonful of salt
and one-half teaspoonful celery seed;
one-quarter hour is long enough for
the boiling. When cold it is strained
and bottled Tor use. The juice of green
walnuts may be used instead of walnut
vinegar, or even the green shells, when
the fruit is ripe, can be boiled and the
liquor taken; vinegar must then be
added in about half quantities

BIRTH MONTH BROOCH.

Pleasing Novelty.

Pleasing Novelty.
Have you a birth month brooch? OF
course you have a natal stone ring, but
the birth-month jewelry is different.
There are no stones in it at all, it is
of beautifully wrought gold. The
brooches are made in twelve designs,
introducing the signs of the zodiac,
hieroglyphs and flowers allotted to
each month, so that each tells the
story of the birth month.
January is represented by Aquarius,
the waterman, sprinkling with his urn
a wreath of snowdrops, the symbol of
purity. February's wreath of priIn-
roses surrounds the fishes. The head
of Arias the Ram is framed by circle
of March violets, denoting love. April
is announced by Taurus, the Bull,
looking out from wreath of daisies,
symbolic of innocence. A bower of
hawthorn arches above Mays twins.
Gemini. June's honeysuclSle surrounds
Cancer the Crab. Leo, the rampant
Lion of July, is wrought upon a shield
bordered with water lilies. August is
represented by shell clasped in pop
pies upon which reposes Virgo,
the Virgin. September's balance of
justice, Libra, is crowned with morn
ing glories. October hops surround
Scorpio the Scorpion.
The archer Sagittarius bands his bow
in a bed of November chrysanthemums.
Capricornus the Goat, signifying truth,
vainly tries to reach his December
wreath of holly.
The colors of the flowers introduced
are simulated in enamel, with the rich
" finished gold in the back ground,
making each piece a novelty which will
probably be one of the gifts most high

One June day the doctor came INTO
his friends office in jaunty gray suit
with immaculate creases and general
air of fashion and newness quite daz-

SIT does not seem to me the proper

''Well, they live too shut in, folks do
down there, and they are all opinion

you from Newcastle, at all events"
This DR.. John did after month. The
letter brought a sense of uneasiness to
Oliver. and the conviction that, with
the best intentions in the world, he
had done a great wrong. Mrs. Minny

Mr.. De Restaud had also visited

Spanking as a Profession.

The avenue of woman's work is
broadening with astonishing rapidity.
Up in Maine an energetic. woman is
earning portion of her daily bread by
spanking her neighbors' bad children.
She receives fifty cents for every spank
ing, and appears at a certain number
of houses each Saturday. Being an en-
ergetic woman, she calculates in giving
as many as ten different spankings
every Saturday.

WOMAN AND HOME.
QUEEN OF MADAGASCAR.
The Dusky female Ruler Has Many Little
VanIties

vanIties.
A member of the London Missionary
society, who once gained admittance
to the royal presence, tells me that he
was obliged to go through the entire
routine of native humble piedom on
that memorable occasion. He had to
kneel in the dust, rub his nose into the
mud and hand Ranavalona a five-franc
piece for a new pair of socks. This is
no joke. In other monarchical coun-
tries taxes are levied for the queen
pin money; here, native and foreigner
alike are constantly asked to clothe the
royal legs in other colors than those
provided by nature. The first pair of
stockings worn by a Malayasy SOW
ereign were bought of French sailor.
He paid five francs for them, that is, the
courtier in attendance to the king was
asked to do so. The operation pleased
the royal mind 1--WE know nothing of the
attendants feelings in the matterl, and
as one pair of socks would not suffice,
he forthwith issued a proclamation or
dering all loyal Madagascars to open
intercourse with him or the govern
ment hereafter by first depositing five
francs stocking money" "Hesina," in
the native tongue.

INCONSISTENT DEMOCRATS.
Southern MaIcontsnts and Their BeIIIg-

Southern Malcontsnts and Their BeIllg-
erens Tactics
Fresh examples of democratic incOn-
sistency are founc in the gubernatorial
elections in Alabama and Tennessee.
In the former state the face of the re-
turns gave Mr.. Oates the governorship.
Mr.. Kolb, the populist candidate,
charged fraud and asked for investi-
cation. The request was refused by
the democratic authorities, and Oates
was seated under guard of the state
troops.
In Tennessee he returns gave the
governorship to Mr.. Evans, republican,
and the democratic legislature has de-
termined to constitute itself Judge of
the vote and investigate certain repub-
lican districts. Pending the report
Gov. Turney, who was the democratic
candidate, will hold over, and at last
/ ne will be declared elected
So in Tennessee, the democratic par
ty rejects what it insisted upon in Ala
bama, simply because it hopes to gain
something by following the contrary
course. The best democrats and the
best democratic newspapers in the
state condemn the scheme, but the fac
ton in power appears willing to go any
lengths to prevent the seating OF re-
publican governor. The Tennessee
democrats should remember the dis
aster which came upon the New York
democrats who in 1891 perpetrated
crime in the interest of party domino

John was returning to Denver sudden
1y stopped at place where there was
only the small brown house of a
