Vest Point Cadet Nichols of Alaska Gets

NEW YORK, N. Y, Sept 25.-It has
just leaked out at the department that
Cadet Nichols of Alaska, a member of the
second class at the military academy at
West Point, was tried by court martial
several weeks ago, and the findings of the
court were forwarded to Washington for
the action of the Secretary of War.
Cadet Nichols had been on furlough
with the other members of his class, and,
it is alleged, reported to the adjutant on
his return in an intoxicated condition. II
is said Nichols pleaded guilty, but gave a
plausible excuse.
The Judgment of the court is severe, as
can be surmised from the fact that the
papers were forwarded to Washington
Nothing short of suspension or dismissal
ever goes to the War Department for ap'
provai Nichols stood high in his class.

Pianos That Catch Cold.

Halls the pianos in this country
catch winter colds exactly as we do.
They get hoarse or have cough Oh
a stiff note, or some similar com.
plant which cannot be cured by
home remedies, but which requires
tedious and expensive doctoring.
Iu order to prevent these avoid,
able ailments a piano should be
kept in a moderately warm room,
where the temperature is even, say
go or 10 degrees, the year round
not cold one day and hot the next.
The instrument should not, how
ever, be too near the source of heat.
1t should be kept closed and covered
with a felt cloth when not in use,
particularly in frosty weather.
Always place the piano against
an inside wall and little out from
it.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
StimulantS.

Alcohol does not give force.
Taken into the body, it liberates
more heat (force) than it gives.
Every healthy human body con-
tains a store OF latent energy. Any
one of the stimulants taken into the
body liberates some of that energy
either as work done or as heat
sensible to the body:
Stimulants are vegetable, animal,
alcoholic. Vegetable stimulants
are tea and coffee, and the animal
stimulant is beef tea.
Beef tea, ordinary tea and coffee
and cocoa all have for their active
principles substances which are
very nearly alike in chemical
formula.
When we take cup of tea we
take 1t to get out at the body certain
force from reserve that otherwise
we would not draw on. We are
tending to bankrupt the system,
and the stimulant adds nothing to
our capital.
The use of @ stimulapt at any
time should be followed by the
prompt ingestion of easily digested
food sufficient to replace the amount
of force that the stimulant released.
Our hospitals abound in tea
drnnkards and coffee drunkards,
just as much, perhaps, as alcoholic
drunkards.
A woman nervous over household
cares, too busy to get meal, takes
a cup of tea and feels better momen-
tarily. The tea braces her up,
liberating some of the force that
has been stored up. Shortly she
breaks down again and takes an
other cup of tea. This proceeds a
few hours for days. Ultimately
she gets into the doctors hands.
Before she can recover she must
give back to the body the force that
has been robbed from it.
To get the strength out of the
meat one must consume its proteid
matter as well as the other eonsti-
tuents.
Beef tea is in itself a stimulant,
but not food.
tn administering beef tea give
the patient nourishing food at the
same time or shortly after.
A perfectly well person needs no
stimulant.
Never take stimulant before a
task.
After the task is done and the
need of something bracing is felt a
stimulant may be advisable, as a
lcup of tea, coffee or cocoa.

Useful Recipes.

PANIED RABBIT.-Cut large,
fat rabbit in halves; place in
baking pan; spread with bits of
butter; dust with salt and pepper,
and set in a quick oven to bake for
one hour. When done take up;
add a tablespoonful of flour to the
fat in the pan; mix well; pour in
half pint of hot water; let come
to a boil; season with salt and
pepper and pour around the rabbit.
Serve with currant jelly.
OYSTER SHoRTcAKE.-Make a
dough as for soda biscuit, divide
into two parts, roll out one half one
inch thick, score and butter it and
lay on a CREASED baking tin. Roll
out the rest, score, and place it upon
it. Bake Is minutes in a quick
oven, pull apart, and spread with
minced oysters scalded in thin
liquor, seasoned, land thickened
with sufficient white roux to give
them the consistency of cream.
VELVET SPONGE CAKE.-Two
cups of sugar, two cups of flour,
four eggs, two teaspoonfuls of
baking powder, three-quarters of
cup of hot water, grated rind of
lemon. Stir together until creamy
the sugar and the yolks of the eggs;
add the flour and baking powder.
Then add the hot water; stir we'll
beaten whites. Do not have them
curdled, but stiff. Flavor. The
batter may seem too thin, but will
prove all right, and you may bake
it as you would any other sponge
cake.
BRUNSWICK STEw.-Cut four
pound chicken into pieces, as for
a fricassee. Put it in a large covered
saucepan with small onion, sliced,
and quarter of a pound of bacon,
in one piece Ga ham bone is better
than the bacon). Cover with boil

one pint Lima beans, one pint of
corn cut from the cob, one table
spoonful of chopped parsley, one
teaspoonful pepper, Cover again
and simmer one hour longer. Re-
move the lump of bacon and serve.
Care must be taken not to scorch
this stew. Keep it over a very
moderate fire, and stir frequently
from the bottom of the saucepan.
TEA CANDY.-The tea candy is
made In both China and Japan. 1t
seems to have been experimental
upon since the Fair by some of our
confectioners with result, an
American result, that is not I'M
satisfactory if not so distinctly
Chinese. 1t is a candy something
like our lozengers, yet not so hard
and brittle, and tastes like a lump
of sugar that has become damp and
dried in a lump. The Supply
World gives the following: "The
candy is made by first powdering
half a pound of the best Hyson tea
to very fine powder or dust; then
mix it well with four pounds of
extra fine lozenge sugar, expose in
a damp room, or place it in pans
and spread damp cloths over the
top Of the pans till the sugar is
damp enough to pack we'll together.
Spread large sheet of smooth

Strengthening Stocking Knees.

ChhiillddFen's stockings generally
wear into holes at the knees first.
A good way to prevent this is to
take piece of nuns yelling, put it
iilssii the knee, and herring bone
it round to keep in place. This
will strengthen the stocking and
make the knee last much longer.
