plan, or rather the bankers plan. It is
good and sAfs--Very good and very safe
for the banker. But how about the
peopleS Not Rs good, nor as safe as the
''most dsmnsDls system the world ever
knew" The plan is good for che COR
poration oanks; it makes them, almost,
free gift OF ons.half OF their capital,
and in case the poor banker Wishes to
initiate, he gets q quarter more OF his
capital, in good new bills, secured by
the government,
Oh, how it will help the dear people!
This is the hello; A bank with 100000
says, "Olms, Uncls SAM" and UaCl9
Sam comes, with (in case OF an emsr-
genCy, and the bank decides OF course,
for an emergency, $4,000 of good
money (Hor Uncle Sam puts his name on
thsm), and humbly puts them in the
bankers safe. The bank kindly gives
back one half OF per cent. OF this
money, that is, OF that amount the bank
loans out during the year. Should the
bank see fit to keep this money az q re.
serve fund, Uncle Sam gets nothing Cor
his trouble. So this supposed good sys-
tenn will make the poor banker able to
loan to the fool people 8l75O00, % soon
as it can get OF its own, 100000.
Let US see how It works, The bank
loans OF its own money 100000 at 10
per cent. { We will leave of the compound
interest), for one year, and gets $4,000;
then Uncle Sans gift (ior it is nothing
less than gifD, and gets $500 more.
After paying UaolO Sam his one half Of

81, ,125 in interest from UnCls Sans gitt,
with it's own $4,000 income, making
817,l25 per year interest, and so on, 90

 highly pleased with the progress Stshas
 made in the short time it has been under
 his care. In fact the, program, which contained a large number of new and diff

As compliment to his class Prof Newell introduced his daughter, Miss Bessie, in several difficult danees.i Her workswasi of a. very high orde;r order and ,was,loudlys appauded sbyathe scholars and the audience which packed the gallery to witness the reception.

CHEESE OMELET.

Maria Parloa, in Good Housekeep-
ing, says: For three or four people
use two ounces of stale bread, free
from crust, two ounces of grated or
finely broken cheese, one gill of boil
ing water, one gill of cold milk, one
level teaspoonful of salt, a grain of
cayenne, one tablespoonful of butter
and two eggs. Have the bread broken
into small pieces and pour the boiling
water over it. When soft, add the
salt, pepper and milk and break up
fine. Beat the yolks and white of the
eggs separately and stir them into the
mixture. Add the cheese. Put the
butter into frying-pan and set over
hot fire. When the butter is so hot
that it begins to turn brown, pour in
the omelet and cook until it begins to
get set, drawing the mixture back a
little as you would plain omelet.
Now fold it and let it brown slightly.
Turn out on hot dish and serve i'm
mediately.

HOW TO PREPARE POULTRY.

In preparing poultry for cooking
here are few rules to follow: Chick
ems, ducks, capons and turkeys should
be killed at least twenty-four hours
before using. When well picked, SINCE

ting some paper in. Pass the bird
over the fame, taking care not to
blscken or burn it. Cut the neck off

5oint with xonr forefneer loosen the
crop and take it out. Cut slip un-
der the rump large enough to run the
hand into the body. Put the hand in
carefully to loosen the contents of the
body and stomach in every direction
so that all may be drawn out in one
mass. Pour warm water through the
bird and wipe out with towel. Cut
the gall from the liver, then throw the
liver into cold water. Scsld and skin
the feet; put gizzard, heart, feet, and
neck in pint or more water, with 8
little onion. Let them stew slowly
until reduced one-half. All poultry
needs just this treatment.-New York

CORN AND COTTON.
Two Staples In Which the United
States Lead the WhsIo World.

Two Staples In Which the C1,itcc
states Lead the WhcIo World.
Cotton and corn are the two srea.
American staples, and the two in which
the United States stand easily at the
head not only Of all countries, but of
all countries combined. The total cot.
ton supply Of the world, figured on the
basis Of bales Of 400 pounds each, Is
about 100000 bales, and Of this
amount the United States produces
about 100000 bales, or two-thirds OF
the whole amount. The crop here at
tanned the highest figures before tha
war in 1860, when it was 1000, ,0o9
bales Of 40 pounds; 1892 was the bes!
year for cotton since, the crop 5ei;i:
100000 bales Of 470 pounds.
The corn Of the United States 70,
1891 Is 65,COO,OO0 acres, and tile tJ4:;;
product 1,2O0,00O,OO0 bushels, OF tha
value Of about $60O,000000. The glcat
corn year was 1889, with crop Of
2,10OOOO,O0O bushels; 1891 followed
with 20O0,G00000 bushels. In 1882
and 1893 the figures were about the
same-1, 900, 100000 bushels. Compared
with the value Of the corn and cotton
crop, the other agricultural prodEc-
tions Of the United States nccuDy a
subordinate position, the valne OF the
wheat crop being S225.000.090. cats
$214, 100000, potatoes S91,G000c0, bar
ley S27,OO0,0OO, rye S13,G20,0%O, anf
buckwheat $7,000,000.
Two surprises because Of the differ
ence in value compared with ordinary
public expectations are hay aud to-
bacco. The hay crop Of the United
States amounted last year to 5 St5S, ,000-
600 in value; the tobacco crop. on the
other hand, amounted to only $Z7.oG0.-
900. The last year preceding 1888
the tobacco crop was so per cent. great
er, and considerably more than Ealf
Of it came from two States, KeitEcHy
and Tennessee. Kentucky stai3;is a;
