E0 COJRTSHIP H JERUSALEM. Matchmaking in Palestine is Robbed
 Of Its Sentimental Features.

Of courtahip as it is known in
 America or England there is none
 whatever in Jerusalem, writes Ed
 win $. Wallace, United States
 Consul at Jerusalem, in November
 Ladjes' Uoaa6 Journal. A young
 Mohammedan never sees the face
 of the girl who is to become his
 wife until after marriage. His
 mother and sisters may see her
 and report their impressions, but
 Ii 1t Is a case where the union is
 by them considered a desirable
 one they are likely to accredit her
 with charms she does not possess.
 Among Jews and Christians there IS greater latitude in this respect though the young people are never permitted to see each other with out the presence of third party. In every case the services of an in- termediary are necessary. Brides at fourteen are not uncommon and at twelve occasion little remark. I have known of one bride ten years of age. She was q Moslem.
 Of social life the girls of Jerusa- k2nw nothing-absolutely nothing, they occasionally meet, a few to- gether, and appear to enjoy each others company a little. They talk about thelr household work which is really everything they know-and indulge in some light gosslpy chat about friends, though their gossip is never of harmful kind. In conversation they show some little animation and spirit, but, being ignorant and illiterate, they have no.idea of grammatical form of expression. Occasionally cards, dominoes and checkers are played, but the native girls have little inclination for any pastime involving mental effort. Such things as dances, fetes and fairs are unknown to the girls of Jerusa. lem; occasionally they are taken on a family picnic to some olive orchard near their homes where they pass part of the day. From these and all similar gatherings. men are barred. There is absolute ly no commingling of the sexes. For girl to appear at any assem- blaze where there are men would be regarded as audacious and shock ing. No Jerusalem girl would do such thing; she would not dream 0f committing so fatal breach in the unwritten, though well-defned, law governing the conduct of her sex. So strict is this law, or of exclusion that under no circumstances would a girl attend the wedding of her brother to which were bidden guests outside the inn mediate families.

He has an excellent war record. and his
life as a civilian has been such as to
command the respect and esteem of the
entire community in which he lives.
His friends claim that he is admirably
fitted for the post of commander in
chief, and they are anxious to pay him
the compliment of very large If not
practically unanimous vote.
But the comrades west of the Mis-
souri, river do not concede that Col.
Walker will have a walk-over in the
convention. They have a candidate OF
their own out there in the person of 7.
s. Garrison, of Lincoln, Neb., and they
promise that he will develop no little
strength when the voting begins. In
fact, they claim to have very strong
hopes of his election, based upon q can
vass which convinces them that ne will
receive not only the united support of
the posts in the far west but that Of
many delegates from states east of the
Mississippi. Comrade Garrison is prom
inent in grand army affairs in Nebras-
ka, and is known throughout the order
as a man of more than average intel
lectual breadth and force of character.
One hears only good report of him,
even from those who contend that he
has no chance of being elected COM
mander in chief this year.
There are number of candidates for
the offices of senior vice commander
and junior vice commander. It is GUS
tomary to select for senior vice COM
mander a man residing in the city or
state in which the encampment is held,
and as there are several Kentucky as
pirants for the honor it may be re-
garded as a foregone conclusion that a
Kentucky man will be elected. Prom
inent among the candidates for the
Office of junior vice commander are
John c. Shots, of Albany, n. ". and
c. II. Shute, of New Orleans. and there
is no doubt that candidates from other
states will bob up as soon as the en-
campment convenes.

and the week following there will be

ABOUT CAKE-MAKING.
Some Hints Which Housewives Would Dc
Well to Remember

Some Hints which Housewives Would Do
Wei 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 as complete a
failure as heavy one. 1t may be per-
fectly risen, yeti hard or dry and
feathery, like so many bakers cakes,
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 cake tough
by overbeating at 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 yolks of the eggs added. The
milk must now be put in by degrees. II
it is poured in too rapidly the cake will
surely curdle, and it is impossible to
make a cake of fine grain from 9
curdled mixture. When the cake has
reached this stage the whites of the
eggs must be beaten to a stiff froth,
but not to too tough froth or the cake
will have a leathery constituency.
A large majority of cakes are
spoiled at this stage by toughening the
white. 1t is unsafe to use any of the
patented heaters, because with such a
beaten il is an easy matter to beat the
egg too much. The old-fashioned
whisll, 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 whisl<.
Add them TO the cake after the -four,
folding them in with a slender wooden
spoon, which is used by all the best
cal1emakers to stir cake. When the
whites of the eggs have been put in tho
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.

BADGES OF MATRIMoNY.


Worn by Women Everywhcre. Except in
the United states.
Americans are the only women in the
world who do not exhibit some sign of
matrimony. OF course those who fol-
low in the wake of European etiquette
would not appear with their daughters
wearing hat without strings, but the
universal American woman buys what
she likes, regardless of whether it be
matronly or not and, what is worse.
her daughters will select articles of
dress only suitable to married women.
In no other country is this the case.
Among the Germans the badge of q
married woman consists Of little cap
or hood of which she is very proud, and
looming the cap" is the feature of the
wedding day among the peasants Of
certain localities.
The married women in Little Russia
are always seen, even in the hottest
weather, with a thick cloth of dark
hue twisted about their heads. In New
Guinea a young woman lets her hair
hang about her shoulders, but when
she is married this is cut short. In
Wadai the yaives color their lips by
tattooing them with iron filings; in
parts of Africa, the married women
perforate the outer. edges of their ears
aud their lips and stick rows of grass
stalks in them; and among a certain
Mongolian tribe of people, the Manthes,
the women wear suspended from one
ear little basket full of cotton, to
which spindle is attached. Thus in
every country, savage and civilized, but
our own, there is "a sign or symbol of
some kind that distinguishes the matron
from the spiniste-.-St. Louis Republic.

Special Chicago Letter.

army encampment held south of the
Ohio river. The people of Louisville,
represented by a powerful citizens
committee, are sparing no effort to
make the occasion conspicuous in the
history of the order for genuine enjoy
ment and unstinted hospitality. To
this end they have secured concessions
from railroads and hotels, and have
even arranged for free sleeping quar-
ters in schoolhorses and other build
ings, with the additional provision of
tents and barracks if necessary.
Col. Albert Scott is chairman of the
committee on accommodations, and this
in itself is regarded as ample assurance
that the visitors will be well taken care
of during their stay in Louisville. Col.
Fl. s. Cohn, as chairman of the commit
tee on parade and review, will see to it
that suitable horses and equipment are
provided for department commanders,
members of stats and others who will
require them in the parade. Capt.
Michael Minton is chairman of the COM
mittee which will have charge of all re-
unions of companies, batteries, regi-
ments, brigades and corps that may be
held during the encampment, and of
these there will doubtless be the usual
number.
1t is the intention of the citizens
committee to present an official badge
to each of the delegates of the various
national organizations. These badges
are made from the blended metal Of
cannon given to the citizens commit
tee by an act of the United States con-
gress February IS, 1895. Both cannon

the other by the confederate forces

To make Europe the workshop OF
America is the tendency, if not the
theory, of the free-trade policy. When
ever IN the past we have adopted or
approached this economic plan, the eff
feet has been to increase vastly our
imports of manufactures, of course to
the loss of American industries and
American labor. The increased i'm
ports have been largely paid with
agricultural products. This appears
to be the ideal arrangement from the
free traders point of view-to let the
foreign manufacturer, who has cheap
labor at command, send his wares over
here and receive in return the prod
ucts of the soil The theory is ex-
actly that each country ought to de-
vote itself to the production of such
articles as it can produce at the least
cost, and then exchange.
The farmers of the new tariff law
proceeded on this plan. Considered
with the reference to the object in
view, the law must be accounted
great success. Foreign goods are
