The oil left from sardines is an ex.
cellent substitute for butter in fish,
balls.
Clothes turned right side out, care
fully folded add sprinkled, are half
ironed.
To prevent mould in ink infuse a
piece of salt the size of hazelnut in

Onions are great absorbents. They
should not be left cut for any length
OF time and then used.
In frying croquettes, roll in bread
crumbs; but in baked croquettes, roll
the last time in well-buttered crumbs.
All beans and leguminous vegetables
should be cooked with the cover half
off the stew pan in order to be digest
ible.
A double chopping knife is one of
the labor-saving utensils that should
find place in every kitchen where
time and strength are valued.
When the taste OF the cook has be-
come vitiated by the tasting of many
dishes swallow OF milk will restore
the delicacy to the palate, 50 says an
old authority on cuisine.
A very good way to test whether
sheets are damp or not is to place an
ordinary tumbler between the sheets
for a little while, and if the bed is
damp traces of moisture will appear on
the inside of the glass.
Clotheslines should always be taken
down after the weekly wash, if pos.

until next time IT the line is pulley
or wire line, and up to stay, wipe off
carefully with damp cloth each time
before using.
Clothespins need washing occasion

good plan is to drop them in the
boiler after the clothes have been

The difference in the nomenclature
Of mutton or lamb chops is often the
source of bewllderment to the novice
in marketing. The following, how
ever. are the points of difference: A
rolled loin chop makes an English
chop. A rolled rib chop, scraped. |
makes French chop. A rolled rib |
'hop makes German chop.

Tempting Luncheon Receives.

A relishing dish for luncheon or tea
is made of crackers by preparing them
In the way just given, then for every
cracker mix one tablespoonful of
grated cheese, one-half saltspoonful
of salt and one-fourth of a saltspoon.
full OF white pepper. Spread the hot
crackers with this mixture of cheese
and seasoning, return to the oven and
warm until the cheese is melted. You
may also make a brewis for tea by
preparing the crackers and cheese in
this way, putting them into buttered
shallow earthen dish, adding one
fourth of cupful of milk for each
cracker, and baking until it is brown,
or until the milk is absorbed. This
is all easy, and Iassure you it is very
nice as well as inexpensive. -Sallie

How to Meet the Conditions Caused
by Great Cotton Crops.
Sev Orleans Picayune.

New orleans fhtayune
Many of the southern people are
disposed to think that great cotton
crou in these states is an unmixed
evil.
IL il true that the larger the crop
the lower the price of the staple, and
many argue from this that the great
est blessing that could happen would
be succession of small crops, which
would put the price up to the figures
that were once the rule-say ten and
twelve cents a pound for middling cot
ton.
Ten-cent cotton, like dollar wheat,
will only be rea lied when, by some
calamitous concurrence of events,
there shall be general failure of the
crops The tendency in all industries
today is tovards reducing the costs of
production and cheapening prices.
This has been done in the United
States to a large extent by the use of
improved processes and mechanical
appliances, and, therefore, without any
general or considerable reduction Of
wages.
But at any rate, whether wages be
reduced or not, the urgent exigencies
of universal competition demanded in
creased economies in all production,
and the result is that nobody can sell
81 prices higher than those which rule
in the lowest markets for any particu-
lar article. We live in an age OF low

The new foreign policy of the admin
istration, as outlined iu our dispatches
of yesterday, will commend itself to
everyone regardless of party. Col.
Hay, while ambassador to Great Brit
ain, made for himself a most excellent
record, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that when he assumes the port
folio OF state he will continue his
good work on broader scale.
Secretary Day brought to his work
sound sense and experience in affairs
that stood him in good stead during all
the difficult negotiations in connection
with the Spanish difficulty. Secretary
Day retires from the Office without one
error on his record. 1t is the
more remarkable on account
OF the fact that 1.-THE incumbent of the
the most important Office in the repub-
lie after the president was a young
man with no training in set diplomacy.
II he had remained in Office, there is
no doubt that he would have complet-
ed q record of which he and the repub-
licau party may be justly proud. But
we believe that Col. Hay will
show himself to be fully
equal to the requirements of the high
ONCE. The policy as mapped out for
the next half year Is sn' interesting
one. First, the object lessons to be
given to the various South American
nations will doubtless tend to draw
those countries closer to us in trade
and diplomatic relations, and to draw
them away in large degree
from the countries of the
old world. AS it is now, Germany,
Great Britain, and France have the
lions share of the trade and the pro-
dominating influence in the countrie :
OF South America, and many of THESE
countries are, or seem to be, actually
hostile to US, at least TO the point Of
be to the benefit of them
selves as we'll as US 10 the nations of
the western world are brought closer
together and mutual interests pooled.
The second move in the game will be
to force the porte to pay up for the
damage to life aud property OF
Americans in Armenia caused
by the Turkish massacres. It is
disgraceful that these just claims
have not been enforced long ago, but
il remains for a republican admins
tration to see that right and justice
prevail in our dealings with foreign
nations, aud that vigor and energy
back up our just demands. The third
move will be to call Germany to &C
count in the Samoan case and also for
her hostile demonstrations in the Phil
ippines. The last, particularly, will
cause every American to rejoice. Ger
many has acted in such q way as to
suggest only one explanation-that
she was trying to override our rights
and bluff US out of the game. Presi-
dent Mckinley and Secretary Hay,
backed up by Admiral Dewey, will see
to 1t that Terrible Willie's bluff is
called

returned to Washington after stay at
Montauk. While some. in fact many,
of the men were sick when the
regiment returned, and were unable to
march in the parade, it is notable that
in all the period of arduous service
only fourteen out Of o full regiment
have died from disease. A striking
fact TO bring out in connection with
this is that other. equally significant,
10 at during all the months since the
regiment was called to arms only ten
men have been in the hands of the pro-
vost guard. The record is one that
might have been that of any regiment
in the service if the line and regimen
tai staff officers had been appointed
with reference to their fitness instead
of a. reward for political service.
The state governors have many sins TO
answer for.
