poses is us ually hard and in cooking
beans, peas and other leguminous vegeta-

A little soda of an amount about the
size of a pea to quart Of water should
be added, and when the vegetables are
tender they should be salted enough to
make them paiatable. Must root veeeta-

WATER DRINKING

When IL Is considered that the body /,
made up very largely of water It can
readily be understood how important &c
health is a constant supply of this fluid.
Many people have a notion that the drink
ing Of water In any amount beyond that
actually necessary to quench thirst Is In
furious and acting on this belief, they en-
deavor to drink as little as possible The
notion, however. Is wide Of the truth.
Drinking freely of pure water Is most
fiicacious means, not only OF preserving
health, but often OF restoring 1T when
| ailing.
Ali the tissues of the body need water
| and water in abundance Is necessary also
| for the proper performance of every vital
| fu notion. Cleanliness of the tissues
within the body is as neces sary to health
and comfort as cleanliness of the skin and
water tends to insure the one as truly as
| ID does the other. 1t dissolves the waste
| material which would otherwise collect
| in the body ard removes 1t in the various
excretions
| These waste materials are often actual
poisons, and many headache, many
| rhematic pains and aches, many sleepless
nio hts and listless days. and many at
tacks OF the "blues" are due solely TO Il Q
circulation in the blood or deposit In the
tissues of those waste materials whi h
cannot he got rid of because of an insuili-
cient supply of water.
Water is accused of making fat, and
people with u tendency to corpulen nos
avoid it for that reason. But this is not
strictly true 1t does undoubtedly oft n
In crease the weight. but 1t does so because
il improves the digestion, and therefore
more of the food eaten is utilized and
tuinod into fat and flesh. But excessive
fat, what we call corpulence. is not u
sign of health, but of faulty digestion and
assimilation, and systematic water drink
ing is often employed as means of re-
ducing the supsrfiuous fat. which it some
times does with astonishing rapidly

Fruit for Royal Tables.

Most of the fruit consumed in
Queen Victoria's household is grown
in the royal gardens at Windsor.
Some statistics published not long
since show that the gardens supply
in one year no fewer than 10000 des-
sert apples, besides 400 bushels of
eating apples of commoner kind.
The grapes produced in one season
weigh two tons and half, the straw
berries a ton and a quarter, and red
and white currants a ton, and the
cherries half ton.

check, it was found, had been cashsd
by Will Spencer, for Kirk, it having
then the endorsement of Malloy and
Kirk.
Kinks story was that Malloy had
gwen him S., quart of whisky, and
the check; that they had disputed
about their going to work; that Malloy
bad got cranky and wanted to fight.
and that he. Kirk, had left Malloy;
drove over to Great Bend, and tried to

Good Salaries for Good Men

Employers are always looking for
good men. If you are working on q
salary, why not get good salary?
There is a man in New York who
gets a hundred thousand dollars q
year. He probably does not work
any harder than the farmland who
receives $12 a month and board. If
you are a valuable man employers
viii hear about you and want you;
never fear as to that. If there is no
demand for you and you are barely
able to hold your job it is sign that
you are the same old thing.-Atchi-

The simple truth OF the matter is
that the Democratic dinner at Shellpot
Park lis to he given for two purposes.
One lis to raise fund to enable the
Democratic Legion of Brandywine hum
dred to buy or build a clubhouse. The
other is to give impetus to a design
Of certain men to organize the Demo-
cratic party in the several hundreds
and districts along certain lines which
they have planned, but which do not
affect present administrative features.
No one win criucise the legion for
wishing to build a clubhouse The eff
fort is pralseworthy in every respect,
and we wish it SUCCESS. But n IL came
to recognizing the party by ignoring
the party rules, and with utter dlsre-
gard Of proper representation, il would
be anothe matter, and we do not be-
leve that the legion contemp,ates such
an attempt. If the legion desires to
make its dinner a success it must climb
nate from It's PROCEEDINGS all matter
which would give Revolutionary as
pect to the function for il would not
be tolerated by the Democrats OF this
state; neither would they be bound by
any such action.
NJ the Democracy Of the state Is to Be
roorganized, il must be dome at state
convention, regularly called by the duly
delegated officials CT the party. II such
reorganization is only to apply TO New

vclved, there is such a thing as a cllv

lions due regard is paid to the funda-
mental principe Of representation from

declarations OF those assembled stand
for nothing. But for any such action

We feel sure that the members OF the

inspires us to say in their behalf that
there is no intention to attempt to d s.
