Colonel Pollock, who has had half
century experience III India. asserts that
now it is almost imposs dble to procure
there Il coed curry. Tha sorts CONNER
cially prepared and scild all over tho
world give no idea of tie genuine arti-
Gle. To procure it in pc riection is now
only possible in Madl as, where it is
considered worthless unless it be abso-
lutely fresh-that is, made from newly
plucked cocoanuts. The deterioration of
curry is i'll proportion TO the lack Of this
essential quality. How far commercial
preparations of the powder are inferior
may be easily imagin ed, as they may
remain for years ON the shelves of deal
ers before use. Colonel Pollock speaks
highly Of tho merits Of East Indian
cooks. In the training, however, they
have acquired in the European cuisine
they have lost the art of connecting their
own native dishes. He makes one eXcep-
ton, and that relates to what he calls
Bengal steak, made of old cocks or
ducks, which he declares is better than
the iuiciest rump sb,ak obtainable in
England.

forbidden by taste and prudence. Milk

and soda and ordinary water are filled
with dangerous germs. Soda water is

shocked the Boston Ear.

The horse came tearing madly down
the street. The coachman had jumped
to save his life and the beautiful girl
inside the coupe screamed for help.
Suddenly the man from Boston dart
ed out in front of the wild eyed steed.
1t seemed suicidal, but upon the brave
fellows face was a look Of determina-
ton that would have been the glory of
a knight of old.
Bracing himself up for the shock, he
awaited the opportunity that Provi-
dence seemed to have intended him for,
and the people upon the sidewalks stood
breathless
With a bound the frightened brute
was upon him. He clutched the reins
and swung himself ont Of the way of
the beating hoofs. The coupe swerved
and was almost overturned, but righted
itself, and in a moment the heroic deed
was accomplished. The trembling steed
stood still, the fainting girl was lifted
from her perilous position
"Where is he? Where is he?f' she
/ cried, and her rescuer was pointed out.
Without waiting to be introduced tho
beautiful creature flung herself upon his
breast and cried
"Oh, sir, you done noble. "
A deathly pallor Overspread his face.
He tore away from her, and as he gal
loped madly from the scene muttered:

wealth.

Wealth is a blessing when properly
used, and the mere fact Of any man pos
sessing it can by no possibility be held
against him unless he came by it
through dishonest or fraudulent means.
One might ask with some show of rea-
son, where would the hospitals, the in
firmaries, the charitable institutions,
the halls of learning and the thousand
and one great interests Of this country
be had they not been endowed and as
sisted by people of means. There are
many people in this country today who
owe their education and training large
" TO the benevolence of those who gave
Of their substance to keep up the schools
and colleges.
The American people are gifted with
a fair average of good sense, and while
they may for a time join in the outcry
against the capitalist, as such, they can
scarcely fail TO come back 20 their nor
NAL, rational level and look upon these
outbreaks as sensational, injurious, un-
just and wholly uncalled for New

the United States circuit court
The suit was brought as a test ease
by Meyer d Dickinson, big Importers

the United States government a differ
ence Of 80 per cent in customs duties
The firms contention was that the i'm
portations In question consisted solely
of hat trimmings, on which the duty
under the Mckinley tariff act was only
20 per cent, but the federal officials in
their argument maintained that the
merchandise was used chiefly for dresses
and dress trimmings and that the duty
Of so per cent levied by the government
was proper. Meyer q Dickinson Wee
