Here is the regular New England way of
cooking baked beans: The best bean to
use is the pea bean, which is the smallest
white bean that is grown-although many
use the comma white bean, and some use
the yellow eyed bean; but the pea bean
is more delicate in flavor and makes the
most attractive dish. A quart Of the beans
should be carefully picked over the night
before they are to be used and all the
speckled ones removed. If the beans are
over a year old they may be soaked over
night in cold water, the water being turn
ed off early in the morning and renewed
with fresh water. If the beans are not a
year old they nave not to be soaked over
night, as they would grow too soft, and
would break and become mushy when
cooked, a result that is to be avoided. In
the morning put them over the fire in cold
water, and parboil them very slightly.

MI. Gallup didn't hear. In the fourth

as she tried to wipe away her tears with
the glass stopper of the bottle, "but if

MRS. GALLUP'S LAMENTS.

Mr.. Gallup How to Run the Fun

AS Mr.. Gallup lighted his tin lantern
after supper and started out to buy
half a pound of Rio coffee for break
fast and call at the postofice Mrs. CAL
lup was in excellent spirits and had
most of the dishes ready for washing.
He was absent 80 minutes, and when
he arrived home he found her huddled
up in the big rocking chair, with a pill
low behind her head and the camphor
bottle in her hand. She took three long
shifts at the bottle, and gave three long
drawn signs as he entered, but it was
labor thrown away. Mr.. Gallup blew
out his lantern and hung it up behind
the cellar door, and, having deposited
the coffee on a shelf in the pantry, he
removed and hung up his coat and hat,
sat down and took off his shoes and
then, taking a circular from his pock-
ct and putting on his glasses with
great deliberation, began to read. 1t
was a circular regarding a new discov-
cry in the cure of consumption, and he
had not yet finished with the first tes-
timonial when Mrs. Gallup sobbed four
times in succession and family asked:
Samuel Gallup, do you know that
your dyin wife is present in the room?"
He made no reply. That testimonial
from n who had been cured after
his coffin had been purchased made him
hold his breath as he read.
Eyes, she is present." dolefully con-
tinued Mrs. Gallup after several shifts
at the bottle, and she wants to hev a

Mr.. Gallup wasn't. He was devour-
ing the second testimonial, which gave
the case of a woman had been given up
by over fifty doctors and yet two bot
ties furnished her with a new pair of
lungs.
When that dishcloth fell l knew that
my time had come. That's the way
Mrs. Grover and Mrs. Taylor went.
Their dishcloths fell, and in twenty
four hours they was in heaven. I shall
be up there by to-morrer night, Samuel,

Mr.. Gallup was listening to a noise
outside. He heard something to re-
mind him of a hen trying to crow, and
he wondered If it could be that so long
after dark.
If you want it a day sooner, you
can hev it," continued Mrs. Gallup
after sobs and gasps and sniffs at the
bottle, s'but you mustn't look out or the

The Blades Chinese Policy.

American citizens in China are
certainly entitled to the protection Of
their government. But If war is nec-
essary to defend them Congress alone
has power to declare it. To order
considerable military and naval force
to China, in ignorance of the actual
facts, and to act In conjunction with
those land-grahbing empires, Great
Britain and Russia, is stretch Of the
executive power that would have
startled the country few years ago.
Has familiarity with imperialistic acts
really deadened the sensibility Of the
American people to invasions Of the
constitution and the usurpation Of au-
thority by the President?-Blade.
We suppose from the tone Of the
above, our good Democratic contem-
porary would have Presid ent McKin-
ley sit idly waiting till special session
of congress could be called and war
declared on China. 1t would not be
necessary by that time. The murd-
erous Boxers would have all the
American citizens in the empire
tortured to death before congress
could assemble. And all the armies
of the universe could not gather up
their mutilated and dismembered
bodies and restore life.
You forget, brother Demo-pop, how
you criticised Mckinley for not act
Ing more promptly in the case of the
Spanish-American war. You will re-
call what a Democratic-populistic
howl went up because the President
did not at once declare war and dis
patch our little handful of soldiers
over to Cuba without supplies or
equipments. After events showed what
blasted idiots you made of yourselves
and how little you knew of the situa'
tion and that Mckinley was remark.
ably levelheaded and firm enough not
to be rushed into so important ar
event without the necessary prepar
ations.
There is no doubt but after events
will prove that Mckinley and the au
thorities Of other civilized countries
are PERFECTLY justified in rushing
troops into China to defend the lives
of their subjects against these muir
derers cutthroats. And their is no
doubt whatever about the proposition.
that had Mckinley not acted prompt
ly ia the matter, the whole Democrat.
ic push would have gone wild with
censure. In that case we think it
would have been proper. 1t won't be
long now till we will hear of Demo
cratic bodies passing resolutions of
sympathy for the poor Boxers in China
and deploring the imperialistic policy
of our government in forcing them to
respect the property and lives of
American citizens.

"Fresh" Campaign Material.

1t is to be expected that in the cur
rent Presidential campaign the Popo-
crat combine will resist to the utter.
most the Republican claim that Pres.
ident Mckinley should be reelected
because he has proved to be promot-
er of the greatest prosperity the coun-
try has ever known This contention,
being the strongest one that can be
urged in support of the Republican
Presidential ticket, will naturally be
disputed with great vigor by the fol-
lowers of Mr.. Bryan. For them to
concede the truth of such a PROPOSE
tlon would be equivalent to giving up
the contest and allow the election to
90 against them by default.

tude on the question Of cause and eff

with the change from bad times to
good times that so quickly came about.
That sort of talk is an old story and
not very convincing one.
Now comes something new along
the same line of argument; something
extremely 'fresh." Here is how the
Gazette" of York, Pa, puts 1T:
The Republican organs always con.
veniently forget that the crash Of IS.
SO came under the Mckinley tariff of
1890. The Republicans are hurting
their case, not helping it, by claiming
too much,
The "Dispatch" of Norfolk, Va, is
more specific:
1t is an undeniable fact that the
crash Of 1893 came on under the tariff
of 1S90-the Mckinley tariff; and that

dustrtes set in and made good progress

cratic tariff of 1894-the tariff into
which Mr.. German and small band
of his Democratic associates in the
Senate injected thousand or more
Protective amendments. Our great
increase in exports of manufactures
began under that act.

and feeble minded persons of mature
years might possibly be swaYed in
their judgement by statements of
this character; certainly no one else
could be. 1t is very young child

upon free~trade platform in 1892, to-

it is only Bryanite Populists and Dem
ocrats who deny that complete rev.
olution was wrought in the financial
| industrial and commercial situation
by the fact of the election of Repub-
lican president and the restoration to
Republican control of both Houses of
Congress in November, 1896. 1t is a
