WAYS or THE CARABA0.
A Few Sober and Instructive Hss
marks Upon the Native OK of ,
the PHILIPPINES.

The carabao is a noble animal OF
about 400 tons displacement, and occu-
pies twelve-thrteenths of the avail
able breathing space Of the Island OF
Luzon, writes o. Ii. Fernbeck, in Over
land Monthly.
He is neat, but not gaudy, and in his
general. appearance somewhat resem-
bes that delightful creature, the Prum,
so-called because il is not fish. He
consists principally of pair of horns
and martyrized expression of coun-
tenance, and is considered by scien-
fists to be cross between the mill
lenium and full army rations.
He lives simple and frugal life, and
spends all of it in making up his mind
to execute sudden move. Then he
dies. At this sudden interruption OF
his projects he is generally about So
years of age.
When not in use as a means Of fur
thering the interests of interurban
transportation the carabao is kept
submerged in water. This is done in
order to preserve his unrutfled temper,
and also TO furnish Il novel sport un-
heard of in other parts of the globe.
Cardiac fishing is pleasant recrea-
ton for the natives in the small hours
of the morning.
| As above intimated, the carabao of
the Philippines is principally used as a
dray horse, and in this capacity pre-
sents many advantages over his equine
cousin. He does not shy at cable cars,
does not interfere. and never in the his
tory of the islands has he been known
to run away. He is gentle and kind in
all harness, and can De handled with
equal success by children or adults;
he needs neither.
There is a prescribed and unvarying
method to be followed in driving
carabao.
After having been hitched to the cart
with due ceremony the carabao will i'm
mediately lie down in the street, more
to enable you to perfect yourself in tho
proper pronunciation Of the many epi-
thets in the Spanish vocabulary than
out of any spirit of meanness.
AS soon as you have sufficiently aired
your profanity, kick him twice on the
left side, and with club or any other
available means of persuasion plant
powerful blow on his head. He will
then get up, unless you have fractured
his skull, in which case 1t will be neces.
sary for you to obtain another carabao
and begin all over gain.
AS soon as he is on his feet you must
place your tongue firmly against the
roof of the mouth, stiffen the muscles
of the throat, and give vent to series
of sounds such as usually accompany
the payment OF a tribute to Neptune
when about "a hours out of port. AS he
hears these the carabao will move slow.
ly forward.
Now prod him necessarily with your
club, and keep up uttering the above.
described exhortation, and the chances
are that he will move ahead at least
five yards before stopping again. Re.
peat the same operation as before, and
by dint of patience and perseverance
you will arrive at your destination.

ter replied to Secretary Evarts, say
ing: "China must submit to your de-
cision as to her citizens who have
been outraged by mob in Denver;
but / venture the expression of opin-
ion that if the cases were reversed the
United States would be disposed to
belligerently demand indemnity"
The reverse side of the situation has
come; and there stands tae precedent
established by this country. Citizens
of China have suffered losses and have
been deprived of their lives, and the
Chinese government can readily reply
to any demand for indemnity or ret
ribution: "Your own government has
established the precedent that pre-
vents you from making any demand
upon China. We have the identical
letter of your Secretary Evarts on this
question, and you are estopped from
requiring Of China what you declined
to admit when our citizens were out
ragged and killed in your country"
That will undoubtedly be the unan-
swerable position to be taken.

wife.

A lemon pie that is absolutely re.
ready the pastry shell. Dissolve one
tablespoonful of cornstarch in II lit
tie cold water. Pour over it tea
cupful of boiling water, stirring all
the time until clear and free from
humps. Add one tablespoonful of but
ter and a small curful of sugar and
cook few moments longer. Set on
back of range and add the beaten
yolks of two eggs, and the juice and
grated yellow rind of one lemon. Stir
until well blended and pour in crust.
Set in the oven few moments with
the door left open, while preparing
the meringue made from the whites
of the eggs beaten stiff and two scant
tablespoonfuls sugar. Spread evenly
over the pie and set on the CRATE of
the oven to rise slowly and brown,
says the Washington Star.
A Colorado housewife, possessed of
knack of cooking and a large fam
lily of small boys with famous ap.
petites, has improvised a new meat
pie, which the family call delicious.
When the big tin pan is filled with
the meat, cut in squares, with its ac-
companying rich gravy, a layer of
chopped watercress is added just be-
fore putting on the top crust. The
pie is then baked until a rich brown,
the cress adding greatly to its savory
qualities.
In making meringue it must al
ways be borne in mind that the
slower it is cooked or really dried the
better. The reason so many house
keepers fail in making thick, ten
der meringue is because they make
a mistake in the temperature of the
oven. If the oven is too hot leave
the door open. For all meringue al
low a tablespoonful of powdered sugar
to each egg.
Summer draperies were never dain-
tier or prettier. Many of the mus

ric in soft coloring is linen taffeta.
And again: Place the butter in an
earthen crock: set in pan of wa
ter and cover pan and crock with a
heavy cloth wrung out of water. BY
seeing that the cloth is kept wet the
butter can be kept firm and sweet
for days.
Plain boiled rice, served hot, with

THE HOME DOCTOR.
Peculiar to Old and
Young.

Warm applications for the spine
and stomach and between the shoul-
ders are valuable, and aid digestion.
Chloroform rubbed on mosquito
bite will cause the pain and itching
to disappear like magic, while the
swelling will rapidly decrease.
When baby's skin is chafed, put
pinch of boracic powder into a lit
tie warm water and sponge the chafed
skin after her bath; dry gently, apply
little cold cream and dust with baby
powder.
When one goes home at night after
fatiguing day, nothing is more rest

of the neck with towel wrung out

soothes the nerves and rests the body
and brain. The same treatment re-
lieves a nervous headache as nothing
else does. When one is overheated
and shere is a rush of blood to the
head, hot towel applied to the faco
and head is great relief.
Various sanitariums and private
hospitals are using the salt rub" and
it is becoming so popular that some
Turkish bath establishments are adj
vertising it as special attraction.
1t is just as good for well people as
for sick ones, is the most refreshing
of all the baths and rubs ever in
vented, only excepting dip in the
sea itself, is very strengthening and
can be taken at home easily.
Put few pounds of coarse salt
the coarsest you can get, sea salt, by
preference-in an earthen jar, and
pour enough water on it to produce
sort of slush, but not enough to
dissolve the salt. This should then
be taken up in handfuls and rubbed
briskly over the entire person.
1t is better to have it rubbed on
by another person, but anyone in or
binary health can do 1t for herself or
himself very satisfactorily. This be-
ing done, the next thing is thorough
douching Of clear water, preferably
cold, and brisk rubbing with dry
towel. The effect of elation, fresh
ness and renewed life is felt imme-
diately, and the satiny texture Of the
skin and increased clearness and
brightness Of the complexion, swell
the testimony in favor of the salt rub.
For young children 1t is best to
drain off the salt, and add two table
spoonfuls Of pure bay rum to basin
full of this salt water. Apply with a
soft flannel, and dry with soft Turk
ish towel Care should be taken that
there is not too much salt in the wa
ter, as it may irritate the tender
skins Of some children.

uals. When our government declined
to mete out justice to China, and to
her outraged citizens, nobody could
foresee the massacre of missionaries,
their wives, children and the native
converts. Nevertheless, the sense Of
justice and equity which is born in all
men must have lived in the mind and
heart of the great statesman who set
aside justice and pleaded as Cain
pleaded: Am my brothers
keeper"
But Secretary Evarts was not tho
first statesman to set up this plea of
non-responsbility So great man as
Daniel Webster, when he was secre-
tary of state, wrote letter to the
Spanish minister on November 10,
1857, saying: private individuals,
subjects of her Catholic majesty, COM
ing to reside voluntarily in the United
States, have certainly no cause OF
complaint If they are protected by the
same law and the same administra-
ton of law as native born citizens Of
this country"
Secretary Blaine, in his letter to the
Spanish minister. in reference to the
New Orleans riot of 1891, said: "The
United States did not by treaty with
Italy,, become the insurer of the lives
and property of Italian subjects resid-
ing within our territory. For
eign residents are not a favored class"
That is the doctrine of American
diplomacy, and it reads well from our
standpoint. But when we are burning
with Indignation because of the out
RACES inflicted upon our own people in
China it does not sound so well. The
letter of Secretary Evarts to the Chi
nese minister, in 1880, applies directly
to the present situation, and clearly
demonstrates the difference between
the selfishness of diplomacy and the
justice of international procedure.
Selfishness and self-seeking in nations
ultimately prove to be as unfortunate

ing in individuals. 1t is particularly un'
fortunate that so-called Christian ma
tons, living under the higher law, the
law of love, should so place themselves.
Public men in the legislative and
executive branches of our government
regard 1t as matter of deep regret
that the federal government has no
power to punish violators of interna-
tional law and of treaty stipulations.
State law, in all such cases, is in the
way of federal law and procedure.
Here are a few examples OF riots in our
own country, in which the federal gov
eminent was unable to punish the
criminals:
The riot in New Orleans in 1851. occa'
stoned by the arrest and execution OF some
American flibusters In Cuba. when cit
liens of New Orleans inflicted injury upon
the persons and property of Spanish sub
jects.
The riot in Denver. 1850. when two China
men were beaten to death and number
seriously maltreated.
The riot at Rock Springs, Wyo.. Septem.
Der, 1885, when 764 Cinnamon were killed and
wounded.
The riot at New Orleans. in 1891. when II
prisoners were taken from jail and put
to death by a mob.
There are other incidents, but these
will suffice. In each instance 1t was
found impossible, on account of local
sentiment, TO successfully prosecute
the perpetrators of these outrages in
the local courts. and, in most instances,
it was impossible even to institute a
prosecution. In each case the foreign
country interested insisted and de-
handed that the United States govern
ment should assert its authority and
bring the offenders TO justice, and
seemed incapable Of understanding
why the United States government
should be powerless to act in The prem
Uses.
Speaking of this condition in the SEN
ate, and urging that congress should
enact legislation to enable the federal
government to act in such cases, Sena-
tor Davis Of Minnesota, one of our
greatest constitutional and interna-
tional lawyers, said: "This government
has been adopting state legislation and
state procedure from the beginning
The rules Of practice and proceeding
are settled by state laws by As differ
ent codes, by As different rules of right
and property in as many different
states"
This is an epitomized statement OF
the condition of the United States, in
constitutional and international law
in the emergency which confronts us
when we consider the advisability OF
necessity of demanding indemnity OF
reti ibution for the outrages which
have been committed in China
Manifestly our condition, position
and precedents are not favorable
and it is not to be wondered tha'
our state department officials are will
ing to privately admit that we cannot
expect any consideration from China
other or better than we have extended
to that country and to other countries
under similar conditions.
When the millennium comes, il not
sooner, statesmen will see that it is a.
wise to serve the nations as it is wis.
to serve individuals under the mora
law, which is higher and better thar
national or international law, OF
diplomacy, SMITH D. FRY.
