Some Old Recipes.

Some Old Recipes.
A New England gentlewoman early
in the century wrote the following
quaint recipes in her notebook, in a
beautifully clear, even hand:
A friend to the ladies would take
this opportunity to advise them to sup
ply their toilets with the following
valuable articles, viz:
First - Self-knOwledge, mirror
showing the form in the most perfect
light.
Second-Innocence, white paint,
beautiful, but easily soiled, and reQuir-
ing continual care to preserve its lus-
ter.
Third-Modesty, rouge giving de-
lightful bloom to the cheeks.
Fourth-Contentment, an infallible
smoother of wrinkles.
Fifth-Truth, salve rendering the
lips soft and delicious.
Sixth-Gentleness, cordial impart-
ing sweetness to the voice.
Seventh-Good humor, a universal
beautifier.
A lady who possesses all these toilet
articles must certainly be well equip
ped. They are probably as efficac;ous
now as they were nearly a hundred
years ago. Doubtless they were COM
posed and presented to the lady in
question by some gallant beau-an OBJ
server of. as we'll as "a friend to-" the
ladies.

The Household Problem.

Now and then il is Il good thing for
the student Of economics to study the
household columns of newspaper, es-
pecially those in which a lively CORE
spondence is carried on between ladies
who do their own work. As Mrs. Stowe
remarked A generation ago, il is one of
the peculiarities of life in America that
We have women. as delicate and true in
all their instincts, as gently bred and
carefully educated. a. the richer gentle
woman, who do their own housework.
and do il well. The grades Of our So
ciaI life, like those Of our Industrial and
political life, are infinite in number,
and il viii be some centuries, in all
probability, before we cIystallize into
definite castles. Therefore the student
Of society as it exists at present must
consider problems more involved than
those Of the Old World.
a paragraph appeared in one of these
household columns not long ago which
might cause the eyes of Englishwomen
TO open in amazement. Some extremely
strict housekeeper had evidently been
giving her views on the proper care of
a house, and had reused the ire of an
other correspondent, who proceeded to
ask the following questions:
Above all. i your health always in good con-
ditiou? Do you dress two early-risne children,
and get breakfast before Gl5? DO YOU then get
one ready for school, while the other little one
has 10 be taken up hall dozen times during the

Clothes cut over stockings for the children and
make all your own clothes: DO you trim your
own hats? DO you make your husbands shirts

clothes and press them? DO you take care Of an
cight-room cottage. and do YOU burn gas or use
lamps? Dc you get hot suppers? DO YOU put up
about seyonty-five cans Of fruit every year? Do
you ever lend a hand To a sick neighbor? How
long do you think you could do this? How could
any one plan this work?
Hundreds OF women will recognize
this list of duties as something like
those of their daily life Some do less
and some, it may be, do more than this,
but it is not at all an unusual task for
the lady VINO does her own work" in

PRESENTS A pAcnIsE PROTEST.
Hock-Rthhcd Republicans Dissatis-
fled With Several Gentlemen Sc
lectcd for Office.

New York, Dec 39.z-Col. Roosevelt is
suffering torments' because of the multi
tudes of men, rock-ribbed Republicans,
mugwumps, and independents, who
want office and desire TO personally ad-
wise the governor-elect of that fact. He
has felt himself forced to issue an iron-
clad order that from now on he will not
consent to see anyone on this particu-
lar topic unless an appointment has been
made.
The Rough Rider is already disappont-
ing the machine element of his party. He
has made up a slate for several impor-
tant positions on which are names that
have the utter adherence of Senator
Platt and Lemuel +. Quigg. Notably in
this pick of men is that Of Joseph DAILY
for supreme court justice. DAILY is a
Democrat but Col. Roosevelt seems de-
termined TO appoint him to office IN pref
erence to William \. Cohen, whom Mr.
Platt had slated for the place COS
Roosevelt proposes Avery d. Andre $

also a Democrat. for adjutant gene al

would like anyone almost no matter

The opposition TO these two gentlemen.
DAILY and Andrews concentrated yester-
day in a formal protest in the name Of
the local machine, which was presented to
Col. Roosevelt hy Mr.. Quisg The Con-
gresham argued earnestly against such
appointments He said ii would be an
insult 10 the Republican party 10 presume
that it could not furnish men capable Of
filling those places. Roosevelt simply
shook his head when asked to reconsider
his views. and answered Nay" Quige
retired the personifcation Of disgust.
Among others on the slate partially pre-
pared by the incoming governor are Fran
els Hendricks of Onondaga. for superin-
tendcnt of public works Joseph Murray.

This is very acceptable to Mr. Platt as
Doty received his appointment by Gov
Morton originally upon the recommenja-
ton of the Senator.
To some of these selections Mr.. Platt
is favorable As to others he IS inclined
to feel il almost i personal insult that
they should have tine least consideration

Miss Gould.

lFrom the Philadelphia Ledger)
II j. said that certain Congressman are op-
posed to passing the resolution of Gen. Wheeler
10 give gold medal and a vote OF thanks TO Miss
Helen Gould for her patriotism and vast serv-
ices to the country during the war with Spain.
The vote of thanks carries with it the privilege
Of the floor of Congress. and the objecting men,
bers seem TO fear that this will be establishing
4 dangerous precedent. because no woman has
yet had that privilege given her. This is a
puerile reason. In a case of this kind and with
a woman like Miss Gould, the sooner 4 prece-
dent i established the better. Il can do no harm
10 the members to admit the lady to The privi.
leges of tho floor; the contrary if she should
choose to take advantage of il. the chances are
that the members would be greatly benefited by
her presence. Gen Wheeler's resolution should
be passed as promptly it ftly was presented
Miss Goulds great and unsclfish services call for
the most generous recognition, even 10 the ex-
tent of the establishment of precedent
