SHOULD COAL GIVE OUT.
Electrical Energy and Natural
Forces Would supply Plenty
OF Power.

Are we utterly dependent upon coal,
so that the wheels of industry will stop
and the forests be consumed for fuel
when coal gives out? OF course not. It
is an Idle fear. Already we have the be-
ginnings of new method of utilizing
natural energy which will prove enor-
mously more effective than coal ever
has been, and will be practically inex-
haustible 10 whatever extent industry
may expand, says Guaton's Magazine.
Electrical energy, u.sveloned by water
power, will run the woriSh Industries,
furnish its light and heae, ard be the
universal substitute for all forms of
combustion methods. Water power is
practically unlimited, and it will be util-
lied more and more in proportion as the
need for it arises and as it becomes, at
different places and at successive peri
DDS, cheaper than coal. The substitu-
tion will proceed gradually, until, when
the coal supply finally is exhaug~d, no.
body will have anything more than
curious or academic interest in the mat
ter, and probably not ripple will be
produced in the steady onward flow of
the worlds industry. AS the use of wa
ter power to develsp electrical energy
increases to the point of formidable
competition with coal, electrical stu
dents and inventors will doubtless bring
out improvements making it possible to
store the power or conduct ii long dis
tances at small cost, until our factories,
railroads and ships can be operated by
it, our houses lighted and warmed and
food prepared, all at even less expense
than is possible to-day with coal.

MISUSE OF A WORD.
the Idea of Trusteeship and Is
Now Misappropriated.

The name trust, which is popularity
applied to all these large aggregations
of capital, was somewhat accidental in
its origin, writes President Hadley, of
Yale, in Scribner's. 1t has, however, an
appropriateness which few persons
realize. The managers of every con-
solidated enterprise, whether based on
contract, trust agreement or an
actual consolidation, are exercising
powers to benefit or injure the public
which are analogous to those of trus-
tee. It has been said that all property
is, in its wider sense, trust in behalf
of the consumer. But where COMPETE
ton is active, the power Of using your
business methods to impose high prices
is so far limited that the chance for
abuse of this trust is greatly lessened.
1t is only in the case of large COM
binations, with their discretionary pow
er for good or evil, that the character
of the trust reposed by society in the
directors of its business enterprise
makes itself really and truly felt. With
these trusts, as with every other trust
that deserves the name, it is hard to
provide legislative machinery which
will absolutely secure its fulfiilment:s
The ability to handle any trust is the
result of long process of legal and
moral education. We cannot make
law which shall allow the right exer-
else of discretionary power and pro-
hibit its wrong exercise. But it is pos
sible to modify the existing law in a
great many directions, which will
hasten instead of retard the education
al process. Thus far most of our statu-
tory regulations have been in the wrong
direction. We have attempted to pro-
hibit the ines&able and have simply
favored the use of undetermined and
short-sighted methods of doing things
which must be done openly if they are
to be done well.

AN OLD FASHIONED NEW ENGLAND KITCHEN
the house, but with large family of
farmhands or apprentices it cannot be
eaten commonly. Nut cakes are ex-
pected for breakfast and sometimes
pye.
-eSome families like to get up great
: dinner on Sundays and have friends
who drive to meeting from a distance
come in for the morning. There is no
objection to this if everything is pre-
pared the day before The meat should
be plain roast, so that it can be started
and left
"a young child can tend the spit
while the rest of the family is away.
In winter the pyes should be put on the
hearth before meeting. so as to thaw
gradually. If you wish to avoid the
necessity Of keeping any one at home,
get some rice porridge. or brewis and
cold meat. This, with pye, is enough
for any one on a leisure day.
For weekday dinner boiled corn
ed beef and pork, with pudding and
seasonable vegetables, is standard
dish and always relished by working
men. Lay in good supply of turnips,
cabbages, pumpkins and squashes.
'sCalf's head and pluck make a fill
ing meal. You can have fresh meat
frequently. even in warm weather, il,
when you kill a sheep or calf, you pass
it around to the neighbors and they re-
turn the compliment when they kill.
1t is usually safer to wait for cool
weather before killing beef and pork.
Fowls are always TO be had When
the team goes to Boston in the winter
with load TO sell. have 1t bring back
a 90 pound fresh Goldfish and barrel
of oysters. along with the molasses and
sugar supply. The fish will keep frozen
for weeks. A piece can be sawed off
and thawed when needed. II can be
sailed down and is much better than
store Goldfish.
Arrange the cold meat and vege-
tables left from dinner on n large plat
ter for the men folks. Saturday night
they will expect hasty pudding and
milk, or 'samp' when corn Is new.

company.
For boiled dinner, at 8 O'Clock
make good. steady fire that will last
until noon. Place the pot on the crane
and fill half full of cold water; add a
large piece of corned beef or pork, and
at 1890 put in the cabbage. at IL the
carrots and turnips, at 11:30 the par
ships and potatoes. Place quarters Of
squash on the top. The dinner will be
sufficiently cooked by u o'clock"
Simple and choice as these recipes
are, there is as much resemblance be-
tween them and our modern day meth
DDS of cooking as there is difference
between the old fashioned hearth and
our drawing room gas logs. Both sug-
gest the comforts of their day, which
is, after all, enough to keep us in touch
With those good old times.

A KITCHEN OF
LONG AGO.
: How and What the Old New
EnGlanders Cooked.
BY JEANNETTE DEYoE.


A copy Of an ancient cookbook, COM
piled by Several New England La
dies" over century ago and known as
the "Pocumtuck Housewife" recently
attracted my attention. l could not
but wonder as l looked it over what
would a good old housewife of those
days do if she were suddenly put down
in a modern city, surrounded by gas
ranges, electric lights, elevators and
steam heat instead of the old fashioned
hearth with its deep chimney seats and
blackened cranes, and were obliged to
contend with the gastronomic propen-
sity of the average household of today.
Probably she would raise her hands in
horror and wonder if, after all, the ex-
ample of her thrift and industry had
been sown on sterile SOIL
The following directions were consid-
cred especially adapted to the needs of
young housekeepers of the time of Cot
ton Mather and Priscilla Alden:
"It will not be out of place to suggest
to novice what will be expected in
the way of meals in a farmers house
hold with good many hands to feed.
''For Sunday morning in winter fry
the hasty pudding that was left over
from Saturday nights supper. Eat it
with West India molasses or muscova-
do sugar. In summer fried pudding is
too heating. Pancakes, with cider and
sugar, are better. Flapjacks are good
on holidays or when the men folks are
not working hard. Weekday mornings
farmers want some meat that can be
cooked quickly, so as to let them go to
the meadows before the sun is up
Salt mackerel and shad freshened over
night and boiled are good. When the
shad catch comes. buy barrel of them
and salt them yourself.

SPRUCE TIMBER SCARCE.
Pnper-Male-s May BE Driven to the
Use of Some other Wood or
Material.

The forthcoming report of S. w.
Matthews, commissioner of labor for
the state of Maine, will contain a chap
ter devoted to the pulp and paper man
ufacturing of the state. A table will
be published showing the acreage OF
spruce timber lands in Maine. the
amount of that wood used each year for
manufacturing paper and give other
data concerning the industry. The
commissioner will also urge the adop-
ton of some other material, if possible,
from which news paper can be made,
says the New York Times.
Maine people are much agitated over
the fast depletion of the state forests
by paper makers, and it is possible that
bill will be introduced in the next
legislature prohibiting the cutting of
spruce for term of years. 1t is hoped
that by this method the forests will
have chance to gain lost ground in
season to prevent the complete ex-
termination of that valuable tree. The
paper-makers are, therefore, doing
much thinking as to what course to
pursue. and it is likely that before long
they will substitute poplar or birch for
spruce timber.
An experiment now being made in
Missouri with cornstalks for making
paper is being watched with interest
here. 1t is said that thus far fair sue
cess has been made with that material
and good quality of paper has been

alone turns out 240 tons of paper each
