MILLING CHOCOLATE.
some Suggestions Concerning the
Preparation of n Delicious
Beverage.

The process of stirring chocolate
while it is cooking with a mill" does
not produce the heavy froth on it seen
on a cup of chocolate served at fash
ionable restaurants. The froth is a
spoonful of whipped cream added to
the cup of chocolate just after il is
poured out. It is, however, very de-
sirable, says the New York Tribune,
that chocolate be thoroughly stirred
while it is cooking, in order to avoid
Jumps and to prevent the oil separat-
ing from other ingredients and rising
as a scum to the top. Chocolate should
be cooked at a high temperature and
thoroughly stirred. A mill is a con-
trivance much like a cream churn. II
is used in the pot Of boiling chocolate
to stir it thoroughly and prevent all
chance of the oil in the chocolate sep
arating while il is being cooked. Choc-
olate should never he made in double
boiler. because under this slow heat
the oil is almost certain to rise to the
top. A good pot, made of copper or
aluminium, is better to cook chocolate
in than one of any material which is
a poorer conductor of heat, like por-
celain-lined or the granite-ware ket-
ties so often used. 1t is also great
mistake to cover the chocolate kettle.
Keep the cover off and mill" or what
is nearly as good, stir it constantly
while it is boiling. Use long-handled
iron spoon. which is easily obtained
at anv furp;Sh{p0 stora Tho
chocolate mill is rarely seen to-day out
side of the old French kitchen, be-
cause long-handled spoon steadily
and deity handled readily does the
work, and is simpler

Official Paper of Nez Perez Count,
proposed New Party for Bryan.

Mr.. Geo. F. Washburp, presi-
dent of the Bryan club of Massa-
chusetts and treasurer of the ma
tional committee of the people 5
party, has issued all appeal to the
"reform forces to cut loose from
the democratic party altoget her
and refuse to act further with Hill,
Croker and German. Mr.. Wash
burn declares that though unsuc,
cessful at the polls, Bryan Is a
mightier man today than his sue
cessful opponent, the greatest po-
litical crusader the world has ever
seen, and enough of political
genius to become the founder of a
great, new party" In Mr.. Wash
burns opinion, millions of men
would enthusiastically rally around
Bryan and state after state would
swing to his standard. The argu-
ment advanced is that Brya an can
hold two thirds of the democratic
party under a new name and win
voters by an entirely novel comb.
nation.
So Mr.. Washburn is getting
down to definite programe. pro-
poses a conference Of political
leaders in favor Of new Bryan
party, the meeting to be held
somewhere in central state to ef.
feet an immediate ganization.
Mr.. Bryan himself shows signs of
renewed activity. He ran over to
Chicago last week to consult Mr..
.Towne and has announced one set
speech In Lincoln next month He
says that he expects to remain in
politics as long as he lives. Mr..
Bryan was the democratic organi-
cation in the last campaign. He
proved that in the fight over the
platform. But he has met with
second and heavier defeat and may
not befthe democratic party now.
The question remains to be deter
mined. Bryan is only 40 years
old. He can talk as fast as ever
and, in all probability, can draw
crowds. He is democratic ele.
plant Of the largest size and the
menagerie is not one that can be
kept quiet. Bryan, Towne, Allen,
Weaver, George Fred Williams
and Webster Davis are not apos-
ties of silence; and if anything can
console Pettigrew it will be strict.

Trusts Can't do Everything.

Just for the sake of variety after
the professional mourners have
beea talking for months about the
way the trusts are raising prices
and the people are being robbed,
let's take glance at few queer
facts.
A careful comparison Of prices
on December 1, 1899, with those of
December I, 1900, prepared by
Bradstreet's, shows so products
are higher and 81 are lower than a
year ago, while six are unchanged
Among the articles that are
cheaper now than they were a
year ago may ne mentioned silk,
print clothes, pig iron, steel, bill
let's, steel rails, tin plates, pc.
troleum (crude or re6ned), nails,
glass and paper.
What can the trusts be thinking
about?
Among the articles for which
higher prices are demanded than
one year ago are listed wheat, corn,
barley, sheep. hogs, mutton, eggs,
pork, lard, Goldfish, beans, pota
toes, cranberiies, peanuts, hops
and hay.
What can the farmers be think.

and silver cost more than they did
