shnh Noe salad.

Shad will soon be at its very cheap
est, and when a fine one is to be served
for dinner, the most delicious salad
imaginable may be made from the roc.
This salad has the tenderness and firm
ness of spring chicken, with favor
that suggests lobster, yet with more
smack" For those who are obliged
TO deny themselves the latter, this will
be found to possess its good qualities
without fear of Indigestion. To pre-
pare, wash a set Of roes, cover with
boiling water, add a small teaspoon OF
salt and stew gently but surely for 20
minutes. Drain, put in a cold place 20
become firm, make one-half pint Of
mayonnaise and put this aside TO set"
Just before dinner. remove the ska
from the roes, cut with silver knife
in thin slices or in dice rs preferred.
Rub the salad bowl with the heart Of
an onion. arrange the roe in alternate
layers with crisp heart lettuce leaves,
sprinl1led at the last moment with a lit
tie salt; spread the maycnnaise over
III. and IL is ready 20 serve. The cut
up roe may have French dressing (oil.
vinegar, salt and pepper) stirred
through Il just before using, II liked.

cooI.ing PnrsnIpa.

The parsnip is a vegetable which is
very welc&ne when it is dug up out
of its spring bed, having acquired rich
ness and sweetness from its burial be-
meath the SHOWS. The small roots are
usually tender throughout, but in large
roots the wood core should be removed.
This vegetable is frequently over
looked. Simmer slices of tender spring
parsnips about 20 minutes; turn of
the water and cover them with cream
sauce made of the proportion of an even
Tablespoonful CT butter melted and
mixed with a heaping teaspoonful or
-four and two cups Of milk. Let the
parsnips simmer in this sauce very
slowly until of melting tenderness.
Season the sauce with salt and pep
per before putting them in it. lfany
OF the parsnips are left after the first
service, drain them out of the sauce
the next day and dip them into sifted
bread crumbs and fry them in very
hot fat-N. Y. Tribune. 81.

A SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM M'ElNLEY,

Plans Approved by Cabinet.

Washington. July s.-The president
has completed a message he win send
to congress recommending the appoint
ment Of monetary commission. II has
been submitted 10 the cabinet and APP
proved by the cabinet officers.
The message was framed by the pres
ident himself. and like his other special
messages TO congress states the ncces-
sity of the occasion tersely.

has now passed both the house and the
senate and hopes that II will soon be
concurred IN by Soth houses With that

tance. he says. demands immediate at
tention, that Of reform in our currency
The message quotes frQrn the presidents
inaugural address in which he said:
Our financial system needs some revi-
sion. our money is all good now. but its
value must not be further threatened.
1t should all be put on an enduring
basis. not subject TO easy attack, nor
its stability TO doubt or dispute. There

1t also cites the work and recommen-
dations of the Indianapolis currency
| convention and says If the power il
vested in the president it is his purpose
to appoint a commission, nonpartisan
consisting of prominent, well informed
citizens. who VIII command public con
ndence.
The message closed with the hop'
that the congress will enact Legislation
at this session to authorize this com
mission, to be made up of representa-
tives Of both parties. so that the presi
dent may be prepared to report to con
gress when It reassembles in the frs
term of the next regular session. III
president. while believing that congress
win respond to his message, is not over
confident. and there Is some differenc
of opinion among members Of the cab
met as to the fate the recommendatio
would meet at this session.
The majority. however, believed th
opportunity is at least a favorable on
and that 1t is at any rate the duty {
the administration to do what Il can

Mr.. Torkins is fortunate in having
teen able to educate his wife to IN APP
probation of the pleasures which he
enjoys. AS an ardent devotee OF the
camera he has inspired her with the
same artistic enthusiasm which he feels
when he has secured an especially beau
tifSl or artistic picture.
1T is too bad for us to miss all the
skating" he remarked. I'VE are not so
old as TO deny ourselves one of the great
est enioyments that the season affords"
81 don't know how 20 skate" was
the answer. "But don't let that make
any difference to you"
II shouldn't think of leaving you be-
hind" he rejoined gallantly. Its not
a matter of any importance. and wen
not say any more about it."
THAT would make me feel very bad.
Now, we can go to the pond before sun
set. I'll dress myself warmly and go
with you and look on. 1 shall be very
much entertained in watching you"
That's so. Maybe I'll fall down for
you. Thatll be sure to amuse you"
"Besides," she went on, never heed
ing the sarcasm, 81 can take the camera
with me and be on the lookout for some
thing new to photograph"
They set out, and in, a short time he
was lightly sldmming over the ice,
while his wife stood admiring the grace
with which he moved. They had sought
a less frequented part of the pond, and
there was no one to warn him that be
was approaching II spot of danger.
There was a crackle, then a crash, and
in a moment only jagged hole in the
ice gave evidence of Mr.. Torkins' where
| abouts. Some men who had heard hiIa
cry as he went down came hurrying
to the rescue, and it was not long be-
fore he was at home.
"I must say" he remarked, when he
was beginning to feel comfortable
once more, that women haven't much
| presence of mind"
II hope" his wife answered, that
YOU don't intend that remark 70 apply
TO me-"
Il certainly do"
But what ground can you find fol
such an assertion, Charley? This after
noon"
"Yes; this afternoon is what have
reference to. You never thought o
getting a board and showing it out tC
me, or any Of those things that yor
read about as being proper in case o
accident. So far as L can remember
YOU didn't even call for help"
Charley, have always heard tina
men find fault when they are not well
1 suppose L ought to make allowances
but l can't help feeling hurt when yo'
say that lacked presence of mind
If there is anything did have it wa
that. 1 may not have done just wha

OUR PRESENT
They Are Sufficiently Good And We
Should Let Well Enough
Alone.

To the Editor Of the Optic.
EAST LAS VEGAS, N. M, April 9th,
1871 have been an interested and
amused reader at the efforts made by
some one to get up a controversy con-
corning the principal and teachers OF
our public schools. The motives lead
ing to this controversy are so concealed
that the public are led to believe they
are purely selfish. Prof. Wood
is an extremely cultured and highly
educated gentleman, who has lived
lived among us, gaining nothing but
the highest pr aise from the entire COM
munity, and being qualified to occupy
any chair of professorship 10 any
university In the United States. HIS
assistant teachers who have taught 10
these school from two to five years and
have given perfect satisfaction, who
have stood examinations under the
public school superintendent, should
not be compelled to give up their few
weeks of rest and recreation to under
90 this useless ~foolishness, OF
examinations under y special board
Of examiners. Primary teachers, who
make methods their study, are not re-
CURED, anywhere else, to stand exami-
nations for the grammar school or high
school grades. Their methods should
be a sufficient recommendation and
the board of education should visit the
school before it closes and examine
their mode Of teaching. This would
give them a far better idea OF their
competency than any other examina-
ton.
Book learning Of itself is n thing,
but to be a successful teacher, 1t IL
necessary to have a combined knowl-
edge Of handling children, as well as
the book learning.
How many are there in commu-
nifty, who are graduates Of our best in
stltulions, a go into q school room
and conduct properly the exercises for
one dayf Can the agitators Of this
question go before a board Of examin-
CTS udu unsWct CoAkrCtiy tnc 4to3tkouo
propounded to themP Assuming that
they could. are they competent other
wise to conduct a SCHOOL, l think not.
The taxpayers Of this community have
Influence by electing this
board Of education, and it seems that
their judgment in this matter should be
sufficient.
As to taxpayers, l suggest that these
agitators had better turn their atten-
ton and efforts elsewhere, and let our
poor, tired-ou teachers and principal
have a few weeks OF needed rest, that
may be able to battle with the
children whose parents cannot success
fully battle with tor any length OF time.
| believe IL q vote be taken, the entire
community will say: Select the old
OF principal and teachers, as they
are good enough and cannot we'll be
improved ON, and do away with this
silly agitation Of an examination and
hummer school," A CITIZEN.
