At a recent luncheon the salad, which
was the now extremely popular one OF
apples and celery with mayonnaisc,
was served in bright red apples The
top of the apple was taken off neatly.
the meat scooped out till the walls were
about half an Inch thick, and the shell
filed with the salad. Every apple rested
on a bed of green cress. The apples
want to be prepared as near the time of
serving as possible, to prevent the rust

the course is pretty novelty, though

We have an echo in our house,
An echo three years old,
With dimpled cheeks and wistful eyes,
And hair of sunny gold.
This little echo, soft and sweet,
Repeats what others say,
And trots about on tireless feet,
Upstairs and down all day. =

SHORT VERSE.

The frost-sprite heard, and he laughed
in scorn: I
"J<ing, indeed! Ha, ha we shall see, sir,
Who is the king, on the morrow's mornp
At evening, a garden aglow with blossoms
That swayed and danced in the rosy light;
Tenderly, fondly the sun caressed them.
Bidding each fiower-mald a soft good
night.
At morning desolate waste of blackness.
Where color and beauty and grace had
been;
The dark shapes, dead to the suns hot
kisses,
Could not be wooed back to life again.
"Now who Is king!" said the frost-sprlte,
proudly
Viewing the scene with exultant air
But the sun pursued him with cleaning
And drove him back to his northern lair
Thus have they warred since times be-
ginning,
Thus will they war till time lose breath,
The prince with the weapons of fiery -splen.

Rain Song.
There's mist upon the mountains and mist
upon the plain;
Put can't you hear the music in the rain,
rain, rain?
It's singing of the summers with the roses
red and white
It's dream to you in daytime and lula
by at night!
Rain away,
Rainy day!
Round the hearth the children play;
And I'm dreaming,
Dreaming, dreaming
OF the melodies of May!
The steeples, like sad sentinels that point
the stars in vain,
Are dripping, dripping, dripping with the
silver beads of rain;
But what care we for weather-cocks
a-shiver in the cold,
When the hearth at home is blazing and
the lambs are in the fold?
Rain away,
Rainy day!
Round the hearth the children play:
And I'm dreaming,
o I'm dreaming
OF the melodies of May!

mother and baby brother on the
Tiburon boat last week. Her mo-
ther had confided to her the fact
that the doctor had found her little
brother in the bay wet and cold and
had taken him to his present home
to be thawed out. They had become
so fond of him that they had de-
cided to keep him.
A few moments later she was on
her knees on the bench looking over

king of the seventeenth century
would have ventured without incur
ring the risk of revolution. 1t was
an act which, instead Of being mis-
represented by those who have found
it out and nailed it to the gibbet of
public contempt, has never been
adequately denounced. 1t was an
act which has positively blackened
the honor of the American republic.
1t was an act which, though subse-

FOR your Protection. Catarrh Cures or
Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
a blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits of catarrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay

US. Despite the great importations
of silver in England during the past
two decades there has been no ac-
emulation of silver. Silver bull
lion imported has been re-exported
to India and the east in payment
for wheat and cotton and other pro-
duce, and the amount of bullion
on the London market is small
estimated at between 100000
and 100000 ounces
This bullion sent to our mints,
the product Of our mints being
coined and exports of silver to Eng
land stopped, what must be the re-
suit? Evidently England must
cease to buy in India either wheat
or cotton in excess of what she can
pay for with manufactured goods
on Indian loans owned in England,
unless she bought from US silver
which we would be unwilling to sell
at less than mint price. And this
price she ultimately would pay, for
she would be obliged to come to us
for wheat and cotton before bought
in India or elsewhere with silver
which she obtained from US, and as
result prices of wheat and cotton
would rise in America in response
to the increased demand, and con-
tinue to rise until prices had SO
risen that the Englishmen saw his
advantage in buying our silver at
$1.29 an ounce (instead of 68 cents
at presently and sending it to India
to buy cotton and wheat, rather
than pay the enhanced prices for
wheat and cotton asked in America.
Thus silver would be restored to
parity with gold, and we would
have higher prices and 1O0-cent
silver dollar as we'll as 100-cent
gold dollar, and not 200-cent gold
dollar as at present.
AS prices OF grain and cotton
and other produce rose with silver,
it would take less wheat and cotton
and other produce TO pay the in
terest charges on our foreign debt
payments which we now find it inn
possible to make with merchandise,
could be readily met, and the drain
of gold to meet these charges would
cease. Opening our mints to silver
would not permanently drive out
our gold. On the contrary, only
by so doing can we check on the
drain our gold for export, and pre-
vent national as we'll as private
bankruptcy and the suspension of
gold payments.-P philadelphia Anaer-

Free Coinage Would Neither Drive
Out Gold Nor Make so Cent Dol

He SOlu mOnOmebdlIlSLS DeIlGVo,
or affect to believe, that the result,
the immediate result, of opening
our mints to silver would be to
drive the gold out of the country.
At once, they tell us, as a result of
opening our mints to silver, we
would lose the hundred or so mil
lions of gold in the treasury, in ex-
change for greenbacks, ETC., and
this together with the four or five
hundred millions in the banks, and
estimated to be in the hands of the
people, would be lost to circulation.
At one stroke our currency would
be contracted one third, the basis
for credits restricted, and credits
curtailed proportionately. Conse-
quently there would be a direful
contraction and calamitous fall in
prices.
Such is the picture the gold
monometallists draw with which to
threaten US, and this direful con-
traction through the loss of our
gold which they affect to fear, this
scarcity of money is to give us a
50 cent dollarl Scarcity of money
is to give us a cheap dollar! Our
money, they tell us, would be con-
tracted one third the moment we
opened our mints TO silver and
prices would fall equally or 333
per cent. The purchasing power
of the paper dollar, of the despised
silver dollar, would be increased
so per cent, by the free coinage Of
silver, yet it would give US 80
cent dollar, cheap dollarl Instead
of giving US a so cent dollar, such
contraction would give us $50
cent dollar.
But free coinage would not drive
out gold so as to cause contraction
Of our currency and fall in prices.
There would be no more $50 cent
dollar as a result of opening our
mints to silver than there would be
a SO cent dollar. Grant that on
opening our mints, panic would
sieze the foreign investors and they
would throw securities on our mar
kets and take gold in payment.
The resulting export of gold would
be but momentary. Any such con-
traction as the gold monometallists
affect to believe would result, lead
ing of necessity to lower prices,
would at once check imports and
stimulate exports Foreigners would
not care TO consign goods to Ameri-
ca on falling market, but they
would eagerly buy our commodities
and, as a result they would have to
send back our gold in payment.
Consequently such contraction as
the gold monometallists affect to
fear would be impossible.
Gold could not be driven out
faster than silver was coined to
take its place. The nations Of Eu-
rope could not take our gold and
keep it, unless they could send us
silver in exchange. And they have
little silver that could be sent us.
Nor would they send their silver
money coined at a higher valuation
compared to gold than that given
by our ratio, for they could only do
so at a loss.
Moreover, what gold they took
from us and added to their stock of
money would cause prices to rise
abroad, and we would get higher
prices for the product which we ex-
ported in payment of our debts.
Thus the export of gold would
make the payment of interest
charges on our immense foreign
