COOK BOOKS ARE USELESS.
Recipes Are Not Reliable When Cook.
ing Il Done ut Great
Attitudes.

As attempts are being made to
found a domestic science and to in
troduce exactitude into the opera
tions of the kitchen a note in the
Monthly Weather Review recording
the actual experience of a housekeep-
er at Albuquerque, N. NJ, is of inter-
est. 1t appears that cooking recipes
and practices which are trustworthy
not far from sea level are worthless
at Albuquerque, the altitude of which
is 1888 feet. Water boils there at 2G2
degrees Fahrenheit, instead Of 212 de-
grees Fahrenheit; hence articles of
food the cooking of which depends
upon heat applied through the medi-
um of water require longer time for
cooking than is given in the cookery
books
On account of the extreme dryness
of the atmosphere, farinaceous food,
such as beans, corn, etc, lose so much
of their moisture that they have to
be left for long time in water be-
fore cooking in order to be softened,
but the worst difficulty is with cake
making. Ordinary recipes as to num-
Der of eggs and amount of baking
powder break down altogether and
housekeepers have to modify them if
they wish their operate to be sue
cessful. AS the barometric pressure
determines to what extent the olsen
gagged carbon dioxide shall expand
and aerate the dough this may ex-
plain the different action of baking
soda and egg batter. In any case,
the observation is interesting and
chemists may find it worthy of their
attention.

Too Much For the Cab.

One of the wealthiest wine mer-
chants in Paris and also one of its
stoutest citizens was the hero Of an cpl
sode which caused much laughter in
the Rue Princesse.
NJ. r., the corpulent man, hailed Il
cab, which came alongside the cr"u.
He opened the door and, getting a pug
chase on the railing of "cabby's" seat,
tried to hoist himself in.
But his weight was too much for the
vehicle. which careened over and, as
the sidewalk is very narrow, crashed
into window of printing office. NJ.
r. had meanwhile collapsed on the
ground, and "cabby" by a miracle
chung to his uncertain perch.
Then followed n stormy period. The
printer came out and wanted to have
the price of his broken window, the fat
man tried TO get the cabby to drive him
away. and cabby refused to taGe any
such load on board.
Finally all parties adjourned to the
police station, where the difficulty was
Strengthened out. and NJ. Il. set to work
looking for another cab.-Paris Temps.

1T is IMPORTANT.
To Know What You Are Taking When
Using Catarrh Medicines.

Catarrh is the short route to con-
sumption. and the Importance of
early and judicious treatment of ca
tarrh, whether located in the head,
throat or bronchial tubes, cannot be
too strongly emphasized.
The list of catarrh cures IS as long
as the moral law and the forms in
which they are administered, numer-
Gus and confusing, from sprays, in
halers, washes, ointments and salves
to powders, liquids and tablets.
The tablet form is undoubtedly the
most convenient and most effective,
but with nearly all advertised catarrh
remedies it is almost entirely mat
ter of guess work as to what you are
taking into your system, as the pro-
prietors, while making all sorts of
claims as to what their medicines will
do, always keep it a close secret as to
what they are.
The success and popularity of the
new catarrh cure, Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets, is largely because it not only
cures catarrh but because catarrh suf-
ferers who used these tablets know
what they are taking into their sys-
TENS. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets being
composed of eucolyptol, hydrastin,
gua'col and similar valuable and anti
septic ingredients, and are pleasant to
the taste, and being dissolved in the
mouth, they take immediate effect
upon the mucous lining of the throat,
nasal passages and whole respiratory
tract.
The cures that Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets have accomplished in old
chronic cases of catarrh are little
short of remarkable, and the advant-
age of knowing what you are putting
into your stomach is of paramount
Importance when 1T is remem bered
that The cocaine or morphine habit
has been frequently contracted as the
result of using secret catarrh rem
edies.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets meet with
cordial approval from physicians, be-
cause their antiseptic character rem
der them perfectly safe for the gen
eral public to use and their compost
ton makes them a common sense
cure for all forms of catarrhal
troubles.
All druggists sell them at 80 cents
for full sized packages.

GERMANS To RETURN.
Seven Thousand Soldiers To BE Sent Home
IS Soon rs Possible.

Picking, April about seven thou
sand Germans. whose time of service
in the army will shortly expire, are to
be returned home as soon as trans
ports are available. 1t is not expected
that their places will be reflled.
The railroad expects TO be taxed to
the limit during the month of April.
Bishop Favier denies utterly the ac-
counts published in Europe and
America TO the effect that he conduct
ed an immense loot sale. The bishop
says he never looted in his life. After
the siege many presents were made
TO him by rich people and he ordered
them to be sold in behalf of the native
Catholics. Probably some of the
things, at the time of the general loot,
may have been acquired that way 10y

ity that China has asked Russia to
allow her a further extension of time
before deciding the question of sign
ing the Manchurian agreement. Both

Chinese Criticism of Our Alphabet.

Chinese Criticism of Our Alphabet.
The high class Chinaman, speaking
through his interpreter, was giving the
eminent American visitor his impress
sions of the English language.
81 cannot understand he said. chow
anybody ever finds time to learn it.
Take that singularly formed letter in
your alphabet, for instance. the letter
e. What an awkward and ill shaped
character it is! What is the signifi-
canoe Of that little curling projection
at the upper end of it? l have never
seen anybody who could tell me. Then,
again, when the learner has familiar
lied himself with that letter and can
recognize it at sight he learns that it is
only part of a word and that it enters
into the composition of thousands of
words. 1t has different pronunciations
and sometimes is not pronounced at all,
being entirely silent. Now, when you
see one of our Chinese characters you
know at once what it is. 1t is n Won
der to me that your people do not dis
card the cumbersome forms of your
written language and learn our simpler
and more easily understood system"
