IMPORTANT FOE MEXICO.

The report that President Diaz
has concluded to push the con-
struction of the MatamorOs and
Monterey railroad is encouraging.
1t seems that the Importance OF
such a road for the transportation
of troops and military supplies
when required for defense, has at
last impressed itself upon the
Mexican government. 1t seems
strange that this had not occurred
to the ruling powers of the repub-
lie long ago. None eau know bet
ter than President Diaz himself
that Mexico's weakest point from
strategic view is this extreme
nOrtheas. corner, with its exposed
and comparatively unprotected
coast line and river front. 1t was
here that the Americans forced
their way into Mexico ia 1916, and
it was here that General DiaZ him
self made his entry to Mexico,
which led shlm on to the Aztec
capital-anS which Brought to
Mexico the industrial development
and phenomenal progress which
she has achieved under him. 1t
cannot be denied that this frontier
of Mexico demands as powerful

any other part Of the republic.

LEMON AMBER CREAM.
A FLIP for n Hot Day Tint In Pretty
30 Look At and Good
to Eat.

Amber cream is nourishing. appetiz-
ing and good to look upon, and favor
lite, even with those who usually de-
spise spoon food. On hot day its cool
ness and tartness are very grateful,
and it may be cooked with the smallest
of kerosene or gas stoves, says the
Washington Star.
Have the water of the outside double
kettle coming to a boil while mixing.
Break the yolks of four eggs into the
porcelain lined inside boiler and the
whites into another dish. First beat
the whites stiff, after adding q pinch
of salt; when stiff add two tablespoon
fuls of powdered sugar; beat well
again. Next add four tabiespoonfuls
of granulated sugar to the yolks and
beat until smooth; now add the juice
and finely grated rind of large lem
on; if small use w; beat well. Lastly,
stir in two tablespoonfuls of positively
boiling water. Put this in the outside
boiler, making sure this is well filed
and boiling. Now stir faithfully over
the fire until the mixture becomes a
thick paste. which it will do quickly.
Remove from the fire, take the inside
boiler by the handle, pop into it the
prepared whites, beat ''like mad" while
contents are hot, which cooks the mer-
ingue just enough to remove the
"eggy" taste.
This cream resembles the very incest
filing for lemon pie and is better for
delicate digestions, as it contains no
butter. Mixed faithfully, as directed,
It puffs up so as to make good show
ing in quart dish. 1t should be rich
amber tint, lovely to eye and palate.

Now, to make this little narrative
dovetail in with the cut-and-dried
dogmas of humorists who have been
doing this sort of thing for n great
many years, all Of these four beau

to dig frantically into their purses.
Each of them should be made to say:

Then they should be represented as
having desperate time of trying
to yank the money out of their pock-
etbooks, and they should be por-
trayed as watching each other craft

putting up sundry and divers kinks
that are known to the prize ring as
sparring for wind, to the end that

The above is all right, and still
goes, even if it was worked when

creatures had finished with their

You see, the one who had dug up
for the chocolate ice creams had been
neatly pushed up to the cashiers desk
when they came in, and she had to
buy the soda checks in advance.
