MeIIne ON French TroubIes.

EPINAL, France, Oct. ION. Jules
Meline, premier of the French ministry
preceding the present government Of M.
Brisson, who presided at banquet of
the Association Of Railway Employees
here Saturday evening, uttered a seri-
Gus warning against the agitation and
unrest in France, class troubles and
strikes. Referring to the divided state
Of society, the violence of polemics and
the sectarian spirit displayed in poll
tics" he said it was impossible to see
France thus torn by factions and de-
voured by political passions, while daily
the principle of authority was under
mined, the army was weakened and the
institutions upon which rested the Sc
curity of the nation were shaken with
out thinking Of that opening in the
Vosges through which an invading army
could pass" or without thinking Of
"some Unforeseen temptation being Of
fered to the foreigner" The adversa-
rles Of France, however. had no need to
declare war, said NJ. Meline. They were
content to await the exhaustion OF
France.

SUMMER SALADS.
A Wholesome and AppetiEinR Diah
About which There Are some
Mistaken Notions.


Tea is a meal that In a great many
country families usurps the place OF
supper as the evening repast. tea 10
a light, unsubstantial meal which is
peculiarly adapted to summer weather.
The old saying that Fruit is goldenin
the morning, silver at midday and
leaden at night" may be applied 60 all
food, and should be well remembered
in summer. 1t is doubly desirable in
sultry weather that the evening meal
should be a light one. The heavier
stews and other substantial dishes
that are so acceptable on the winter
supper table pail upon the taste In hot
weather. A properly seasoned dish Of
meat or fish salad takes the place on
the tea table Of all other meat dishes
at this season. This Is an economical
as well as a wholesome course, In spite
of the nightmares which well-menning
people used to conjure up at the men
tion of n lobster or chicken salad.
The fancy OF our Puritan ancestors
that n French salad was something as
deleterious 70 the digestion as the
typical French morals were 20 the
character is an old one. This Is, no
doubt, the reason why so many con
scientious women of an older genera
tion cling to the coarse meats and
greasy vegetables of the boiled dinner,
ubjured mustard and other condi-
ments, and looked upon a French salad
MS a means by which men were led TO
ruin and intemperance. Men aud
women are led to the use Of stimu-
/ lants not by salads and condiments
but by food which does not supply
sufficient nourishment. Coarse meats.
| indigestible boiled beef and mutton
and boiled vegetables that clog up The
process Of digestion and give the stom-
ach and digestive powers the greatest
amount of labor for the least arlount
Of nourishment bring a natural desire
for stimulants to restore the strength
On the other hand. a properly dressed
salad made OF delicate meats or fish
with mustard and other condiments &c
assist digestion, furnish nourishmeni
with the least amount Of taxation OF
the physical forces at time wher
they are somewhat weakened by heat
With salads, as with all food, Il IS es
sential that they be served at the righ
time. II Is necessary for the woman
who desires her children 10 grow vi
healthy and strong 20 prepare all th'
food for them In the manner that shall
render it most acceptable and mos
nutritious. Centuries ago great poe
from whom we might not expec

when he said: That which Is not GOO
Is not delicious 10 a well-governed nr
petite" Ahealthypersonhasa health

, licious. There Is no reproach In thl
i respect for food. On the contrar,
there Is vast amount Of mere anima
ism in consuming food in indifference
