HOT MILK AS A TONIC.

If any one doubts the nourishing prop
critics of milk let a test be made of the
following preparation of it. When very
weary or weak from exhaustion heat
some milk to a scalding point, until q
shin skin begins to wrinkle upon the sur
race, and then drink it as hot as posi-
BILE. 1t refreshes almost instantly and
restores the exhausted vitality to a sur

is more nutritious than any of the best
beef teas made from meat extracts, or
that made from fresh beef which is
carefully strained, as many of the re-
cipes direct that it shall be.

Some think that the power of one man
over another is contrary to nature; for
they maintain that it is only human
law that makes one man a slave and an
other a free man. But in nature there
is no such distinction; wherefore it is
an unjust arrangement, for it is the re-
suit of force and compulsion

No household life can ever be made
truly ideal by all having their own way.
But many persons who are tied up in
family life forget this. They expect to
live as regardless of others as if they
were living alone. They consider no
ones comfort, peace or pleasure but their
own. They let their own impulses have
full and free expression. They make no
effort to repress any elements or dis
positions in themselves which tend to
give pain to others. They demand all
their rights, not remembering that the
other members of the family have rights,
too, and that home happiness can be
secured only by the mutual surrender of
rights, each III honor preferring the
others, each seeking not to be ministered
unto, but to minister.

The Chief Objection.

The chief objection to free trade with
Porto Rico Is the Democratic intention
to use it as a precedent and an enter
ing wedge to influence p like policy for
the Philippines. We know of no profit
that can arise from such a policy that
will offset the degradation of American
wage earners. The Republican party
should take immediate warning. 1t
should refuse to swerve a hairs
breadth from the policy that has caused
its return to power after the reyerses
of 1895 and 1892.
Above all. it should refuse to accept
the advice or follow the policy of an
enemy that Is willing that Republican,
ism and the welfare of American labor
shall be whelmed in common ruin for
the sake of making Mr.. Bryan Presi-
dent, and turning the country over to
Tillman and Altgeld. All Republicans,
no matter what their views on expan-
