Showers Blessings Right and Left Rs It
 wends Its silent Way.
 The following extract is from a speech delivered at the Minnesota good roads convention:
 Every ono's income is divided into two parts. Ono of these he is compelled to mako use of in supporting existence; the second part is disposed of in the way which his judgment tells him will be best. This leads to the inquiry whether our surplus is judiciously spent. Arc We buying the greatest amount of comfort and permanent good with tho portion loft at our disposal? Would not model roads be of greater benefit than our tobacco, liquor. tea, circus and other show moneys bring! Would they not moro than balance the good times wC have hauling our produce the rough mics lf mud, at such fearful cost. ill extra labor. repairs, horses, oats, in wear and tear of conscience and damages to character?
 It is certain that bad roads mako weak. struggling churches and poor. i'll attended, lifCless schools They neces- sitate a life of seclusion which walls tho path of social progress.
 To sum up. a perfect highway is q thing of beauty and a joy forever. It blessos every home by which it passes. It brings into pleasant communion peo- ple who otherwise would have remained at a perpetual distance. It awakens em- ulatiun, ccmcnts friendships and adds new charm to social life. It makes the region it traverseS moro attractive, the residences moro delightful It stimulates a spirit of general improvement. Fields begin tO look tidicr. shabby fences dis appear, gardens show fewer weeds, lawns aro better kept. the houses seem cozier, trees are planted along its bOr- ders. birds fill the air with music, tho world seems brighter. the atmosphere purer. The country is awake, patriotism revives. philanthropy blossoms as self ishneSs fades and slinks from view.

Giblets are much more often used
abroad than they are in this country. In
fact, 1t is question whether they wanld
not be much despised by the average
housewife and the ordinary family
cook. They are, however, quite worthy
of careful preparation and make hearty
and nourishing dish. The famous Gouffe
has written very good recipe for the
same. Choose a good set of giblets,
scald them two or three minutes, SINCE
and clean them thoroughly, cut the neck
and gizzard each in four, the pinions
and legs each in two pieces, cut into
neat pieces one-half pound Of good
streaky bacon, fry them in an ounce Of
butter till slightly brown, take them out
and put them aside to keep warm. Put
the giblets into the same stewpan in
which the bacon has been Drowned, with
butter, salt and pepper. When they are
brown, dredge some -four over them, add
some water, stir the contents till they
boil, add the bacon, bunch of sweet
herbs turnips- cut round and oblong--
and some onions, which latter should
previously have been Drowned in butter.
Half an hour before serving put in about
dozen potatoes, peeled, put i'll the
liver only about ten minutes before serv-
ing, or it would be overdone and crum-
bled. These materials should boil to-
gether about an hour, then remove the
bouquet, skim off the fat, put the glib
lets in the center of the dish, arrange
the vegetables all around, pour the
gravy over the whole and serve very
hot.

If IT be true that japan will be
forced to surrender Formosa, the
flavor of her victory over China is
dest Dyed. This leaves her only
the indemnity and the independ'
ence Of Corea, which is practically
nothing. The report that Japan is
not to have Formosa should be al
lowed to await confirmation. Bv
all the rules of war she
seemed entitled to this
prize. If Japan is forced tc
abandon Formosa, the home wal
party, which was set into a
frenzy at the suggestion of yielding
Chinese mainland, will be beside
itself with fury. This element, al
ways managed with the extreme
diffiulty, may cause a serious in
ternal disturbance. In that direc.
tlon lies Japan's real danger. Per
haps Ii Hung Chang was the real
diplomat Of the day when he ac'
coded almost without a word to the
peace conditions stipulated by
Count Ito and his colleagues. Per
haps he saw plainly enough that the
treaty could not meet with the APP
proval of other powers and that a
serious controversy would be taken
from his hands and conducted for
hin by better equipped people in
the same business.
Since the above was written the
dispatches arrive telling that Japan
holds Formosa.

have given notice that 40 per cent
of the money supplied from the
outside will be returned, as it is
not required. Under the syndi-
Gates contract its managers were
entitled to use all this. money until
next October, chiefly for the pur-
pose Of controlling the market fol
sterling exchange. That market
has now receded, owing to heavy
sales of bills against securities sold
abroad, to a point that makes II
unnecessary for the syndicate to re-
tain all the capital contributed fol
its operations; hence the return o.
part of the amount.

back aching and annoying job. A bin
with floor sloping to the outlet is
convenient, but takes time and consid-
cradle labor to build.
The cut of a bin to obviate all these
troubles is given by The Rural New
Yorker, which says it is clearly, con
yenient and easily made. 1t is rectangu-
lar and has no small door. Instead the
boarding between two studs is arranged
to open as series of small doors. The
upper one is opened first and the coal
shoveled off into the hod, then the next
door, and so on. When the bottom is
reached, one can enter the bin through
the opening thus made and shovel up
the coal as needed, with no spreading of
tho coal over the floor.

Wash silk waists do not always wash
well because of ignorance of the proper
way of laundering them. Add tea
spoonful of borax to some lukewarm
water and enough nice white soap to
make weak suds. Rub through the
hands carefully. Instead of wringing,
draw the silk through the tightly olasped
hand. If all the dirt has not been taken
out, wash again. Then rinse in several
waters to which have been added a
pinch of borax or half dozen drops Of
ammonia Do not let the silk become
quite dry before ironing. Then use a
moderately hot iron, as very hot one
will scorch the silk.

The Popular but Mistaken Fad Of Fur.
uishIng In Faded Out Tints

The Popular but Mistaken Fad OF Fur.
nishlnE In Faded Out Tints
What with our symphonies in gray
and our "nocturnes in diluted blue" ii
has become a question whether we are
not carrying this fad for subdued color
ing in decoration to point where it has
become ridiculous, to say the least. PEG.
pie who aspire to be in fashion seem to
consider it very vulgar and in decidedly
bad form to use any but faded out tints in
furnishing, according to The Decorator
and Furnisher. The method usually pur
sued in this species of household adorn-
ment is certainly safe one when people
have no knowledge of the laws of color
or taste in their selection The formula
is about as follows: They first select
their carpet of pattern that is usually
described as quiet and unobtrusive. For
the walls they will choose one of the
colors shown in the carpet, for the dra
pories another, for the upholstery anoth
err or perhaps several, and so ON until
we have ono of those milk and water
combinations obtained by tho toning up
process. There are those who practice
this system to such an extent that one
might be tempted to believe it opposed
to all canons Of art to make use of the
primary colors in decorative schemes.
Let us imagine room got up in this
fashion, the prevailing coloring being
pale coral and green, perhaps perfect
dream of soft harmonious tones, and
the lady to preside over it all with
complexion of--well, not the pink and
white of the new blown rose, but some
thing far removed from it. If nature
has been unkind to her in this regard,
can she not see that by selecting for her
| domestic environment such system of
coloring she renders her facial defects
the more conspicuous?
1t is a mistake to suppose that only
| by using the faded scale of coloring can
we secure that "restful feeling" we
! hear so much about nowadays. Some of
the most charming interiors to be seen
are those in which the color scheme
ranges from golden olive to the warm
rich browns, with the primary tints to
emphasize the ornamental portions,
bright bits of color in the shape of pot
terry and water colors in gold frames TO
accentuate and punctuate, as it were
the points Of special interest.
