A kitchen utensil that is not often includ-
ed among the necessities with a young
housekeeper is hot water pan, or balm
marie, they are called. The pan has places
in which several saucepans may be set in
the water to keep the food hot and in good
condition until needed. For cream soups,
sauces, and gravies it is especially useful.

bad speller-or is careless in his alphabet.
Children, especially, note the funny
appearance of the word and great

they explain the mistake and incidental

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Will Street Review

New York, Aug. 29.-Stocks were more
active today and prices We're higher than
on any previous day for the week. The
change in sentiment was due to the gen.
eral IMPRESSION that money will work easi-
er next week on account of the steady in
fluX of gold from Europe. Additional en-
gagements of Sl,25U,OO0 gold in London for
shipment to New York were reported. The
engagements now foot up between thir-
teen and fourteen millions, and, according
to foreign bankers, the twenty million
mark will be reached early next week.
Speculation closed strong, with an ad-
vancing tendency. Net changes show
gains of isaS per cent. Total sales were

GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE.

The San Jose Herald in an able analysis
OF the hydraulic mining problem, while
recognizing the principle of restraining
dams as feasible engineering achieve
ment, takes the ground that Government
assistance in their construction would not
be good policy, and that arguments in sup
port OF such assistance IGNORE CO nstitu-
tional limitations and sound pol itical
science" For instance, it asserts that while
the output froma a years crop OF hen s. eggs
IS twice as great as that from hydraulic
mining this furnishes no reason for the
construction OF chicken-coops by the Gov
ernment.
We had supposed that a very important
junction OF Government is a reasona bl e
encouragement of important industries af-
fectlng the welfare of the whole country.
provided such encouragementl Is necessary.
1t is upon that principle that the Republi-
can idea of protective tariff is founded.
Hydraulic mining and hens eggs are
hardly parallel cases, for mining by the
hydraulic process has been actually pro-
hlbited by legislation, except under very
burdensome conditions = conditions so
burdensome as practically to make the
prosecution of the industry impossible in
the absence of Government assistance.
That is not t he case with hens eggs.
Even though, as our contemporary de-
.clares. rehabilitation OF hydraulic min
ing by means OF Government assistance
