LIAM AND THE cHAFIno DISH.


ne Can Cook Better Than his wife, Bs-
cause More confident.
Octave Thanet says that men use
chatting dish better than women. Per-
haps 1t is because there is gaudy tri-
umph abou; chatting dish processes
which there Is not In other cooking ex-
ploits. Men never like to work behind
a screen. They enjoy the tumult and
the crowd and the cheering when they
strike telling blow. A woman Is
nervous to see dozen eyes on her. Her
ears tingle at the good-natured com
ments. She is frightened. she loses
confidence In herself. She looks fur
lively across the table at the man for
whom she cares for more than
all the rest. and he is telling
the lady who gives such charming din
ners that he must send his wife over
TO her for series OF lessons-and 1t is
all over for the poor creature at the
alcohol lamp. II she be wise she will
tip the lamp over and cover her retreat.
A mans self-confidence is OF stouter
fibre. He isn't looking at his wife, he
is looking at his dish: II any ingredient
be missing to call loud and spare not
for that was voice given; naturally he
gets everything, whether he has for
| gotten anything or no, and the entire
service of the meal stops until he has
had his will. A man will have two
maids and large stately butler run
ming about the waiting room on his
preparation of terrapin la Maryland,
or lobster la Newberg; and he will be
no whit embarrassed. A woman is
scared to interrupt the feast by with
drawing one servant. And the man is
| right and the woman is wrong: for peo-
pie can wait for their wine or their
sauces. but an alcohol flame waits on
no man. But the difference between
man and woman as cooks is too near
other burning questions for one to dis.
cuss with the thn--.nrveter at 90.

AN .rhhEGAL ooMRINarIoN.

Another blow at the trust principle has been struck in decision by the United States district court of the east ern district of Pennsylvania. The de- cision was on an application made to the court by the National Harrow com pany. This company is combination among manufacturers of spring tooth harrows, by which each manufacturer assigned to the corporation organized for the purpose the patents under which he is operating. and took back an exclusive license to make and sell the same style of harrows previously made by him, and no other, all the parties to the combination being bound to sell at uniform prices. The decision was based upon an application by the trust for an injunction to restrain one of the parties to the combination from selling harrows upon more favorable in two license contracts held by the de- fendants. Application was also made for a decree for the specific enforce ment of these contracts, and for an &C., counting at the rate of s5 for each harrow sold in violation of the terms of the license contracts.
 The injunction and decree asked for have been denied by the court on the ground that this so-called National Harrow company is merely a scheme devised for the purpose of regulating and enhancing prices for float spring tooth harrows, and controlling the manufacture thereof throughout the whole country, and that the combina- tion, especially by force of the num- bers engaged therein, tends to stif1e all competition in an important branch of business. The court intimates that no such far-reaching combination as is here disclosed has ever been judicially sustained, and that the courts have re- peatedly adjudged combinations be-

ONE OF THE LATEST FRAUDS.

Oleomargarine isn't butter, though some think it is better than butter. But even those who thus think don't want oleomargarine called butter or butter called oleonlargarine. There isn't anything unwholesome about a mixture of wheat flour and cornmeal, but it Is wicked to call it wheat flour and sell 1t for that. It is alleged that, tempted by the extreme cheapness of corn, some millers mix seventy-fiye pounds of cornmeal into each barrel of flour. It is also said that it is next to impossible to detect the fraud. The Baltimore Sun reports that a Baltimore woman, in order to test this latter mixture of two pints of flour and one pint of cornmeal. The bread, she said, was excellent and the presence of the cornmeal could not be detected, though there might be a suspicion that the
 flour was not high grade. At present prices of wheat and corn the saving by such a substitution would be about seventy cents barrel. To the ordi- nary mill turning out a hundred barrels of flour a day the gain would be very large in the course of a year.
 That wheat four is really being adul- terated with cornmeal is indicated by the fact that the Modern Miller has de- terrnined to institute a crusade against the alleged practice, and purposes to publish the names of millers detected in the fraud. It will have samples which have passed through the regular channels of trade analysed in order to detect cheats. The Miller says: There is no excuse for mixing the two Hours and selling them as wheat flour; no plea can be uttered by the guilty to such charge, save and except greed. Honest millers should make it their business to duote their product, and guarantee it when sold as pure wheat flour; and careful buyers, those who have good names to protect and who at all times maintain straightforward business principles, should demand such a guaranty. We have no ,criti- cism to offer against the practice of selling the mixture as a blend, for then both dealer and consumer have
 the option of taking it at its value or | leaving it alone.
 This Is indeed wicked and adulter- ating generation. It will surprise most people to read that even their wheat | flour may not be pure.

4 aREhr oHlNnE.

Only few short months ago the people of this country were scared enough about the gold supply. It kept dWindling and dwindling. Bond issues hadn't kept 1t up. Banks and others who could get gold were hoarding it., Bryan and his aiders and abettors were going around threatening to knock gold entirely out, A powerful syndicate was formed In order to avert a panic. And all who favored the upholding of the gold standard were in state of mind. The gold reserve in the treasury is now about $143 OOo,0 900, and there are no signs of any immediate assault on It.. Those who boarded gold before election are trying to get rid of it now. It is so lplenty and so easily obtainable that nobody wants it. This great change has been wrought by return of con- fidence. It shows what confidence will do. The situation is both pleasing and encouraging, and it will not be long now before the increase of confidence will show itself in business affairs. Then things will hum" again until over-trading, too much confidence, etc., etc., breed another smash-up. But we will not worry much about the next smash-up until it comes. It will be so pleasant to hear business "hum" again that the sweet sound of it's humming will drown the far-off ominous murmur of the next avalanche of disaster.
