The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1898-05-08

When Mr.. Buchanan returns to Bue-
nos Ayres as United States minister he
will be instructed to negotiate a par
cel-pOSt treaty with the Argentine re-
public, under which small packages OF
merchandise, Weighing not more than
eleven pounds, may be sent by mail
without going to the expense Of secur-
ing consular invoice, which costs
several dollars. 1t is thought that
there might be a great deal of trade
built up in this way with all South
American countries, as there is with
England, and those who are interested
in promoting commercial relations
have been trying to secure treaties for
several years. The first has already
been negotiated with Venezuela The
Argentine government has siSnffied its
willingness to enter into such a con-
vention, and our ministers to other
countries will be instructed to urge ne
gotiations on this subject
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1898-05-08

German newspapers describe the ig-
norance of some of the army recruits
as so remarkable that out Of a group
OF sixty-six men, twenty-five had new
er heard of Bismarck. Others thought
him the emperor Of the French, or that
he was dead; while one brilliant can
didate for the honor of being shot was
sure the Iron Chancellor was a Hohen-
zollern. The English military journal
which reports this mental poverty re-
marks charitably that analogous igno-
rance is found in other armies. A
German, however, who has no vision
Of the mighty work wrought for Ger
many by Bismarck is clearly pre-emi-
nent in ignorance.

What causes the headaches and other
nervous troubles which plague so
many boys and girls in the schools
and so many students in the colleges? ?
Steady, cheerful and reasonable appli-
cation Of the mind is not bad for any
body; Y conduces to fine health by de-
veloping that vital energy-brain
force-which runs the whole physical
machine. Probably in nine cases out
of ten the mischief is traceable to some
kind Of disorderly living. to nocturnal
excitements, irregular hours, or the
waste OF force in some foolish indulg-
ence. Here, for instance, is the state
ment of an experienced physician to
the effect that 70 per cent of the ner-
vous diseases he has dealt with were
caused by tea and coffee. Professor
Spade holds that they ure positively
injurious to children and young peo-
pie, and many persons past middle life
would be much better off without
them"

Substitute for Potatoes.

These are the days when the old po-
tatoes are least desirable as articles OF
food. The careful housekeeper will re-
place them as often as possible with
substitutes. OF which there are many.
The coarse hominy Is useful In this
way. IL not served too often. The
inner hominy served hot and with a bit
OF butter and pepper and some crisp
bacon, Is a breakfast menu that in
some households is offered about sig
days out OF seven. Boiled rice may
take the place OF the potatoes at any
time. and fried rice. which is not rice
eroquettes. but prepared like fried
mush. Is another way to vary the ser
vice OF this dish. Macaroni and spaK-
hetti take the place OF potatoes agree
ably, as do Lima beans or Boston
baked beans. Even In such house
holds as have deemed Il almost a part
OF their religion to serve potatoes IN
some form at least twice a day, Il will
be found that their absence is easily
made up by various other vegetables.
which are more palatable than old po-
tatoes.

White Tune Evening Gown.

There is a lovely display OF ball
gowns in many OF the large establish
ments just now. A girlish frock OF
white tIlle has four rows OF fine white
guipure insertion on the upper part
of the skirt. The corsage which is
quite simple is also trimmed with the
insertion. Turquoise blue satin rib
bon form straps TO the shoulders
where they are finished with full bows
An original gown is of thin white
stun with an all over pattern done on
1t by means Of double lines of blue
mousselaine de sole ruchings. There
is no belt, the trimming on the cor
sage meeting that on the skirt to give
a princesse eneet. and there are some
pretty touShes OF blue velvet on the
bodice.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1898-05-08

The servant girls of Topeka. Kansas.
have organized and declared that their
visitors shall be allowed to enter the
front door and be entertained by them
in the dining room instead Of the
kitchen. Why not the parlor? And
when the visitors are numerous why
shall not the family occupy the kitchen
and give up the rest of the house to
them? For families live to serve ser
wants. and not servants to serve the
family.

Popularity OF the wheel.

Cycling has gained absolute sway in
Scandinavia. In Norway. Sweden. and
Denmark. the household that has not
one devoted to the pastime OF cycling
is rare. The city OF Copenhagen swarms
with cyclists during all hours OF the
day. An observer Is surprised to see
the general use which the bicycle has
found among the mechanics in that
northern country. II is made to serve
as a valuable tool in furtherance Of
various trades. and masons. brieklay-
ers, carpenters. and such can be seen
speeding along the streets in their
working clothes and with tools slung
across their backs. Even chimney
sweeps. a decided European lnsfi.stion,
ny along the thoroughfares like so
many spectres OF the night.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1898-05-08

Dispatches from Shanghai state that
the Chinese complain bitterly of the
fact that they do not possess a war
port for the five warships which are
being built for them abroad, and which
are due to arrive in Chinese waters this
summer. Unless Wei Hai-Wei. occu-
pied by the Japanese. is evacuated.
which is doubtful, the Chinese have no
place in which to receive their new
warships. Commenting on this situa-
tion the Chicago Chronicle says: "The
man without a country has frequently
been made the subject of more or less
fanciful tales, but a national navy
without hailing polt is something
that has not yet occurred to romano
ers. The Chinese navy. however. fur
nishes an actual illustration of such a
situation. The Pekin government
which placed contracts with English
shipwrights for feet OF Warships. now

found in the catacombs OF the Russian
cathedral at Kiev. Deep down beneath
the magnificent cathedral are miles OF
subterranean corridors lined with cells.
In which $500 ascetics perform their

dreds OF tiny lamps cleaning like
multi-coloured jewels.
