one part of feeding and without diges-

Things to Remember.

Many things that housckecpcr
finds we'll worth remembering are not
always recalled at the moment when
they are most needed A list Of such
items should be hung upon the kitchen
wall, where it can be easily consulted.
The following are some Of the items
that ought to be placed on such list:
If possible, vegetables should be
cooked the same day they are gathered
Poultry should not be eaten until
twelve or fourteen hours after it is
killed.
Mildew spots can be removed if they
are rubbed with mixture of soap and
chalk.
Warm bread and cake can be neatly
cut by using knife which has been
heated in boiling water.
Onions are preventive and often
times cure for malarial fever.
Onions, garlic. lecks, olives and
shallots stimulate the circulation, in
crease the saliva and gastric juice, and
promote digestion.
Peas and beans are the most nutri-
tious Of vegetables, containing as much
carbon as wheat and double the
amount of muscleforming food.
a small pinch of carbonate of soda
in the water preserves the color Of
vegetables and lessons the unpleasant
odor of cabbage and onions when cook
ing.
Celery engonders sleep.
Asparagus purges the blood.
Tomatoes act directly on the liver.
Spinach and dandelion leaves are
excellent for the kidneys.

ARRIVAL OF THE STATE.
Among Other Passengers She Carried a

ful Voyage


The steamer State OF California, on
her arrival yesterday, carried as one o6
her passenger list. a fun-blooded Ffnplno
boy. Although seventeen years old, the
lad bore a much more youthful appear
ance, and seemed intensely interested In
everything pertaining to the management
Pf the vessel. He Is in charge OF Rev.
Dr. Charles A. Owens, waio brings him
TO this country to educate, or, as the
DOCTOR expresses II, TO test his capacity
and ascertain whether the juvenile pro-
duct Of the islands Is capable OF absorb
ing an intellectual training such as the
Unated States will duly impose on It's
newly acquired population. The little fel-
low cannot as yet prattle In English to
any comprehensive extent but he Is
rapidly learning, and within uhe ensuing
three months Is expected 20 have the
American tongue wdi In command.
Captain Parsons stated that the pur.
ser's enrolment covered about l4O first
and second class passengers. There was
also full cargo, 90 tons Of which we're
unIoaded for Astoria merchants. The
State had Clear weather the entire trip,
but was tossed by an ugly swell which
confined the majority Of the voyagers 10
their berths. Dealers in fruit were happy
on the vessels arrival,as the market sup
ply had been almost depleted in the last
two days
Captain Goodall, father Of the States
regular commander, was buried In San
Francisco Monday. The funeral services
were largely attended.
