Swedish Toast.

It is learned from Good Housekeep-
ing that Swedish toast is an excellent
substitute for fried cakes in summer. A
recipe is also given for making it:
Warm q pint Of milk, add q onpful
of sugar, tablespoonful Of lard. one
half teaspoonful Of salt, yeast cake or
one-half Of O cake Of compressed yeast
dissolved in q little warm water, two
we'll beaten eggs and -four enough to
make q rather thin batter. If set at
night, add one-third teaspoonful OF soda
When risen. knead into loaf. adding
-four as for bread. Raise again. Knead
and roll into sheets. Sugar the tops II
desired. Let them rise and bake. When
cold, cut into strips about three-fourths
of an inch thick and toast in q very
slow oven. If toasted to light brown
and thoroughly dried it will keep long
time. but soaks very quickly when
dipped into coffee. Use half the sugar If
too sweet. The recipe can be doubled
aud only two or three eggs used.

The Penny Press, al active and mis-
guided advocate of free coinage and
other things, sticks to that old frlud
about wheat being worth dollar IN
Mexico. Yes, it is "worth" dollar-a
Mexican dollar, and the Mexican dol
lar is worth SO cents, and the man who
harvested the wheat got II cents a
day for his work-12 cents in Mexican
money, remember-and it would take
him twelve days to earn as much as
the American laborer would earn in
one day, and he could buy with his
wages for the twelve days about half
az much clothing as the American la
borer can buy with his wages for one
dav.. Let's all move to Mexico, the

The silver philosophers very wisely
sav that no man will sell silver for less
than q dollar when it will be accepted
for a dollar at the mint. Very. we'll.
Now, who is to get the benefit OF the
difference between the 80 cents that IL
Is worth now and the 81 that 1t Will De
"worth" when the government stamp
ia on It? The laboring man, or the
farmer? No; for they have none of 1t,
and they can't get it for less than what
the mint allows for it. The silver
owner, then, who is the only man who
will have silver to sell is the only man
who will receive direct benefit. Con-
sidering the number Of silver owners,
and comparing them with the number
of laborers and farmers this looks like
fattening a dozen silver men on
million working men.

How to Drink Milk,

One chief reason why milk 80 fire.
quently fails to digest is that it is taken
too rapidly and it enters tho stomach
and becomes one solid mass difficult Of
digestion. If it is slipped it is SO divided
on reaching the stomach that when co.
agulated, as it must be by the gastric
juice while digestion is going on, in
stead Of being in one hard mass it is
more in the form of sponge, and in
and out of the entire hulk the gastric
juice can perform its duties.

WOULD HURT INSTEAD OF HELP.
How Free Coinage Would Inture the
Farmers. E,.r &%S

How Free Coinage Would In;ure the
Farmers. ~, %
The chief strength Of the 16 to agi-
tation lies in the belief that it would
benefit the agricultural classes. This is Q
serious error. The facts Of all human
experience show conclusively that Tree
silver would cause widespread and pro-
longed injury to the farmers of this
country.
The mere threat of free coinage would
greatly injure the farmers by causing
an immediate calling in of all loans
through the natural desire Of lenders to
get back money worth as much as they
lent. Hundreds of thousands Of farmers
would be unable to pay their mort
cages, and their farms would be sold at
q sacrifice. No new loans would be
forthcoming, as the owners Of capital
would not invest so long as there was
any danger that by change in the
money standard the value of loans
would be out in two. AS the chief COM
plant of the farmers now is that inter-
est is too high and capital too scarce,
the effect of policy which would make
capital scarcer and dearer can be figured
out by each farmer for himself.
A second way in which free coinage
would hurt agriculture would be by the
financial panic which would inevitably
follow the overthrow Of our present
sound financial system and the adoption
of the unstable cheap silver standard.
With the millions Of bank depositors
demanding their savings the machinery
of credits, by which so large part Of
the country's business is done, would be
suddenly stopped. Merchants would be
unable to buy goods for lack Of credit;
manufacturing industries would be clos
ed down, as in 1898, and millions Of
workers would be idle. Men out of en-
ployment do not buy as much farm
products as when they are at work, and
the farmers who now complain of the
lack Of markets for their produce would
find Themselves with a large part of
their crr Id. Would not this be .
serious y agriculture?
AnotL,- Ill which free coinage
would bring to American farmers would
be the unsettlement of their trade rela-
ton with the great gold standard COM
mercial nations, which purchase each
year 5000, 600, 900 worth Of our surplus
farm products. The adoption Of the sill
yer standard, with it's constantly fuctu-
ating scale of prices, would prove the
same barrier to commerce between this
and other countries that it has to trade
between gold standard Europe and In
dia, China and Japan. Do the farmers
want to curtail and unsettle our foreign
trade?
These are some of the ways in which
free coinage at 16 to would hurt the
farmers? No advocate Of So cent dollars
has ever been able to show single way
in which it would help them.

To man who has no money there are
several ways to get it-namely:
(a) Beg it. :
9" (b) Steal it.
(c) Borrow it
(d) Secure it by gift.
(e) Trade something for 1t.
If we are to beg for it, we might just
as we'll do the best we can. Therefore a
dollar based on a gold standard is better
than 16 to 1 silver dollar. which today
is worth about So cents intrinsically.
If we are to steal it, we want the best.
A thief who would steal a silver dollar
in preference to a gold dollar would be
acquitted on the ground that he was in
sane.
If we borrow it, we want that kind of
money which will go farthest, for SO we
can get along with q smaller loan.
Therefore gold dollar is better to Dor
row than 10 to silver dollar.
If we are to secure it by gift, certainly
we should not depreciate that which we
are about to receive.
This brings US to e, which is the
way most money is obtained. A peril
nent question for each Of us to ask at
this time is, What have I got to trade
for money which want2 It may be
labor; it may be horse or COW; 1t may
be lumber or shingles; it may be saw
mill. At the present time we can trade
any Of the above and get gold dollar
for every dollars worth Of value, as may
be agreed upon between buyer and SELL
er. We can get q dollar which is worth
dollar anywhere and everywhere
Now, your labor or horse or COW or
lumber or machinery will be worth just
as much, or nearly as much, next year
as it is this, but II we have free coinage
at 10 to will the dollar which you get
in trade be worth as much As the dollar
you can get nowp What will that be
worth2 Gan you tell? It may be worth
IS cents or more or less One day this
one day that, but can any one tell?
These are all pertinent questions, and,
when carefully considered, must guide
us in voting at the next election in No.
vember, and do not lose sight Of the fact
that If all the silver in the world is
coined into money You cannot GET cent
Of it except by a, b, 9, d or e, above re-
ferred to.-Lumber Trade Journal

THE SENATE FOR s1LyEn.

The vote In the United States Senate
yesterday ON the free coinage substitute
for the House bond bill, shows unmis-
taksbly that the majority OF that body
is for free silver. It is not Thought
that the bill as thus amended will pass
the House; but should there be sur
prise In this respect. 1t Is admitted on
all sides that the measure will be vetoed
by the President. Senator German in
opposing the substitute, said legislation
In that line was useless, rs 1t would be
certain to meet with q veto from the
President. but Senator Morgan. very
properly urged that the views OF the
Executive should not influence mem
bers OF Congress to vote in opposition
to their Judgment on public measures.
The Senator from Maryland was 80
impressed with the sound sense and logic
of this view of the subject. that he read
lily admitted that Mr.. Morgan was right.
and added that there had been too
much executive interference with ns-
tional legislation. 1t is not believed
for 8 moment that President Cleveland
will pay any attention to the vote of
Congress-, 80 far as the withholding OF
his veto Is concerned i, but IL Ia taken for
granted that he would, If 1t came be-
fore him, promptly cit down on the bill,
and that for the time at least would be
the end of the matter. The action of
the Senate, however. shows that the
sentiment in favor OF silver Is still
growing in the United States, with q
strong probability that the free coinage
OF that metal will be the leading political
issue in this country before the meeting
of either the Democratic or Republican
national convention. Already some OF
the Presidential sspirants realize this,
and are trimming their sails accord
ingly.
So far as the Democratic party ia
concerned Mr.. Cievelapd's campaign of
education on the currency question
has proven successful only In convince
ing the majority that tho free coinage
of silver on the basis established by
the fathers of the republic Is the one
safe road out of the financial quag-
mire into which the Government and
the people of the United States have
been drawn.
