Celery For nnilY Use.

Celery is in season from September
until April, and should be in daily
use on the family table. Tt is one Of
the best nervines known, is invaluable
as n salad and is of great Importance
in the kitchen, where it may be used
in many ways as a flavoring, as a veg
etable in soup or as salad. Every
part Of a bunch of celery is available
in some department OF cookery.
For table use select firm, white
stalks, wash them thoroughly, then
scrape them and lay them in water I'M.
til they are crisp and cold. When
ready to serve dry in cloth and split
the stalk down almost to the bottom,
allowing few of the tender white
leaves to remain. Serve in a celery
glass or on q dish, with little salt.
The larger stalks may be used for
salad by cutting into pieces three.
quarters of an inch long. After cut
ting, measure, and to each pint of cell
cry allow half a pint of mayonnaise
dressing. Do not mix the dressing
with the celery until ready to serve.

The State of California, now per-
haps the closest of the larger States Of
the country, has seven Representa-
tives in the Fifty-sixth Congress, bat,
notwithstanding the evenness of the
division between the two parties, six
of these Congressman are Republi-
cans and only one is Democrat. In the
Presidential election of 1896 the con-
Gest between the two parties was SO
close that the electors were divided,
Mckinley receiving eight votes and
Bryan one. In the Presidential cleo
tion of 1892 the Republican plurality
was less than $50 votes, and so close
was the State that Cleveland received
eight of the electors and Harrison one.
California divided its electors in 1880
also, when the Democratic plurality
was only 100 votes.

CurrY Soup.

A curry soup that is wholesome and
delicious is made in this way Put a
tablespoonful of butter in a frying
pan. Add two onions sliced and
stand on the back of the range until
the onions are soft and we'll done.
Add a sliced sour apple, small stalk
of celery cut in dice, sliced carrot
and two quarts of water. Cook slow
ly half an hour, strain through a col
ander and return to the fire. Moisten
one tablespoonful Of curry and add to
the soup, together with teaspoonful
of tumeric. Stir to a thin paste in
cold water two tablespoonfuls of corn
starch, add to the soup and cook ten
minutes. Season with salt and pep
per. Strain, add little butter and
serve with rico OF rice and croutons.

lIlnts For tho nnnsowlrc.

Uniformity in dishes is no longer in
favor.
Hang up q pincushion in the kitch-
en-.
Poultry scissors for clipping wings
and legs are o welcome addition to the
carving set.
A small pinch of carbonate of am
monia in the water prevents the odor
of boiling cabbage.
To prevent kerosene from smelling,
place tablespoonful Of salt in the
reservoir of the lamp.
To clean iron sinks rub we'll with
cloth wet in kerosene oil. After using
the oil wash thoroughly with hot,
soapy water.
A glass Of buttermilk contains as
much nourishment as half q pint Of
oysters or two ounces of bread or
good-sized potato.
IL kerosene is rubbed, with flannel
cloth, on steel knives that have be-
como rusty, and they are put aside for
o day or two, the rust will he loosened
and they may be very easily cleaned.
A bit of economy as well as an i'm
provement in the service of the egg in
which croquettes or fried food is to
be dipped before being rolled in bread
crumbs il to add to it teacup of boil
ing water. Use the whole egg aud
beat lightly to break it up before
pouring in the water.
The cleaning out of tho kitchen
boiler is one Of the things that the
housewife should have attended to
once week, say the plumbers. If
the sediment cocks, with which every
boiler is provided, are frequently left
open for Il quarter OF an hour accumu-
lated sediment would be washed away,
rendering the heating Of the water
quicker operation.
No particle Of cheese, however
small, should be thrown away or
allowed to waste, for it may be used
in twenty different ways. White,
crisp lettuce with a dressing and
little grated cheese scattered over the
whole, is an appetizing salad. A
little cheese grated upon dish OF
stewed potatoes is relished by many,
and cheese aAd rice or cheese aud
hominy are as perfect combination
as cheese and macaroni.

Frowned unon Progress.

"T have called on you to-day" said
the professional humorist, with a glad
smile, as he approached the desk Of
tho great editor and made himself
comfortable in tho precarious office
chair that once had a cane bottom in
it, "to PROFOUND to you a scheme
that seems to me to be up.to-date and
well worthy of consideration"
"Umph" growled the great editor.
Thus encouraged, the humorist pro-
cecded:
For some time past, as you have
doubtless observed, the progress of
the world has developed a peculiar
phase, which may be spoken of as that
OF lesseuing. 1t seems to be the am
bition of all inventors to add the word
less to everything that has been in
vented in the past. We now have
smokeless powder, painless dentistry,
horseless carriages, wireless tele-
graphy, and many other things have
undergone change that may be sim
ilarly described; but L will not trouble
you with complete list. Now it
seems to nc that the time is ripe for
similar stride forward IN the field of
humor, and 1 have come to you to-day
with bundle of specially prepared
pointless jokes"
And in less time than it takes to
write this q hatless and breathless hu-
morist was fleeing wildly down the
cheerless street.-Harpers Bazaar.

The Swiss have no standing army,
but the whole population, from twenty
to fifty, is enrolled in three classes Of
the militia-the first and youngest
for thorough training as recruits; the
next for ordinary military service and
the last ,or use in an extremity. The
service is short, but the drill is thor
ough, and rife practice is encouraged
in all citizens by Government sub
vention of private clubs. There is a
permanent general STAFF and officers
are taught in military schools and ap-
pointed and promoted by severe tests.
The State provides arms and equip
ment in all services, which are ample
for any emergency, and Of the most
modern type.

The TItIo Of Dowager.

The title of "dowager" seems likely
in the near future to become obsolete.
Queen Victoria's eldest daughter was
the first to resent the title of dowager;
aud is now known by virtue Of a royal
decree as Empress Frederick. ."
Queen Wilhelmina of Holland has
been much disturbed by the idea or
her mother being looked upon as
an old lady, and has caused to be
published a decree commanding that
henceforth the former Regent is to be
styled, not "Queen Dowager," but
"Queen Emma of the Netherlands. "
Even the old Empress of China, wish
ing to be in the fashion, has consented
to this reform.

Broad.minded statesmen do not
agree with the general belief that the
British Empire would be weakened by
capitulation to the African republics,
or even by a cession of territory. On
the contrary, it is pointed out the
empire has continued to expand in
spite Of reverses such as were suffered
in the American revolution and in the
South African affairs during late
years. Russia lost 5000 men in
the Crimea, yet it has developed in
every way since 1858. British pres
dge has suffered before now, and prob
ably must suffer again. But this, it
is contended, does not mean imperial
disintegration.

One often hears of queer trades, but
perhaps the queerest is one which is
controlled in this country by one
man. This is the manufacture of
shuttle eyes. These are made Of
porcelain and require to be very care
fully made. The solitary manufac-
turer has acquired his trade wholly by
the care with which his product is
turned out and the perfect uniformity
of his goods, as a result of which
every shuttle eye fits the hole into
which its predecessor was inserted.

The motor car has now been so thor

tions of work that the public is able to
Judge for itself of the comparative
value Of the different forms of compel.

practical automobile are so numerous
and differ so widely, according to the
service to which it is to be put, that it
is at present impossible to pick out
any particular type of motor and say
that it is best for every type of work.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
DelIcIous Luncheon DIsh.

An excellont luncheon dish is made
by chOpping and then mashing to q
pulp some cold chicken, seasoning
we'll and mixing with a cup of cream
the yolks of two eggs and sufficient
dissolved gelatine to set it firmly.
Then press into a mould and put into
the refrigerator till needed. Turn out
on platter and send whole to tho
table to be served in slices. Cold veal
or even lamb may be used in the same
way, but either will need more sea-
soning than the chicken.

An indianapolis newspaper tells us
that Robinson Crusoe" is the favorite
book with the boys of that city. This
announcement is not in the nature Of
a surprise. The same thing might be
said of the boys Of any other city
where the English language prevails
and English literature is known
