A great many housekeepers do not
seem to know there arc two kinds of
kitchen pepper besides cayenne.
Black pepper, which is generally used
in fiavoring, is quite an inferior arti-
Gle to white pepper. Black pepper
is ground from the entire pepper
corn, including the husk, while white
pepper is ground from the inner por-
tions of the berry after the husk
has been rejected. White pepper is
not only stronger than black pepper,
but it is less liable to be adulterated
with the dried leaves of other plants.
black mustard and various cheaper
articles. The family supply of pep
per for "A year should be purchas sed
at some large trustworthy spice
house, or some Trustworthy place. A
quarter of a pound of peppercorns
ought TO be purchased at the same
time, as they are better for fiavoring
soup stocks and some sauces than
ground pepper.-N. y. Tribune.

INSIDE JAPAN.
Fist Fights Preface Death Struggles
Hut There Is No Wife,
Heating.

In spite of these qualities of easily
aroused antagonism. of pride and
Spartan ideals. the japanese are an
essentially gentle race-morc so
than the Anglo-SaXons. Broils in
which one man hits another are of
rare occurrences; blows are general
ly the preface of n death struggle,
says Anna \. Benjamin, in Ainslee's.
The women may often suffer from
the prevailing ideals of morality,
which are yet much lower than ours,
but there are few wife-beaters, and
the home atmosphere is almost al
ways outwardly peaceful. 1t follows
that a little true politencss on the
part of the foreigner goes Il long
way, and almost invariably meets
with warm recognition; you rare
ly appeal to the Japanese in vain.
They are as quick to respond to an
act of real kindness as they are to
resent an act which has a tinge of
arrogance. Our government allowed
several transports with returning vol
unteers to stop at Yokohama, and so
hundreds of American soldiers visited
that city and Toxic. One of them
hired bicycle and was taking a
ride about the streets of Yokohama
when he ran Gown an elderly Jap
anese man. The soldier rang his bell
several times, but the Japanese ap-
parently paid no attention to it, and
the American found himself prompt
ly arrested and taken to court, where
he was fined ten ''yen" Give dollars).
He protested that he had done every
thing possible to avert the accident
and asked why the man made no at
tempt to get out of the way. The
policeman then told him that the
man was blind. The soldier looked
dazed for a minute, then felt in his
pocket and brought out ten-dollar
bill. Here" he said, its the last
I've got, but he can have it," and
he turned it over to the blind man
The Japanese were deeply touched,
and that same day a delegation OF
policemen hunted up the soldier and
gave him back his fine.

POWERS OF ENDURANCE.
Main Points Considered by Military
Leaders ON the Eve of Great
BATTLES

At the moment of crisis in any
great action, all turns ultimately on
the self-sacrifce of the units en-
gaged-iive minutes more and per-
haps 20 extra casualties in only one
battalion may turn the scale, but
failure may need 5000 men and hours
of fighting before the balance again
inclincs in our favor; it may even
mean defeat and months of slaughter
before the scale is once more brought
level. as after Spion kop, says the Ma
tiOnal Review.
1t was in this particular point that
Napoleon, as battle leader, was pre-
eminent: his extraordinary capacity
for feeling the exact fighting temper
of his men enabled him to fit the task
to each unit of his command. His
reenforcemcnts never arrived too late
and never too soon. The conse-
quence was that. as against anything
approaching numerical equality, he
always retained Il reserve of fresh
troops in hand for the final blow of
the day-Ligny is the best case in
point.
Wellington also cXccllcd in this
quality; witness his SAYING at Water
loo; Hard pounding. gentlemen; we
will see who can stand it the long
est"
In armies trained to fight on these
principles high percentage of cas-
ualties in victorious engagement
formed the highest claim of honor to
such an extent, indeed. that instances
are not wanting in which the returns
have been "regimentally" cooked.
In such troops, to quote from
Mecllel, referring to Fredericli's in
fantry in the seven years war. "the
officers did not spend their winter
evenings in discussing how their
losses in the coming campaign might
be reduced The war experience
had taught them that the question
really settled itself, troops always be-
ing expected to bear what they could.
and their powers of endurance testi-
fled to their fine quality.

SPRING BREAKFASTS.
Various Simple Dishes That Always
Lend n Zest to the Morning
Meal.

IF women who are early riscrs, vet
feel certain weakness and faint
ness early in the morning. will take
glass of hot milk as soon as pos
siblc after they get up, they win feel
the benefit OF il. Instead of doing
this great many women get up in
the morning and do not eat until the
entire family breakfast is ready and
waiting. The worker feels weary
and it is difficult to tempt the appe-
tite even with the most fragrant cof-
fee or the crispcst toast, says the
New York Tribune.
A spring breakfast should always
include crisp. tender salad. Ma
thanicl Hawthorne once described
an ideal spring breakfast fit to set
before a king" as consisting of "hot
cakes of golden meal, nice fried brook
trout, toast, potatoes, fresh boiled
eggs and coffee Few better break
fastS could be ordered. There are
people who have a partiality for a

as Dickens describes such breakfast
meat, and embraced by its rasher of
ham" Delicate slices of calf's liver
served with dash of lemon juice are
always accompanied by the thinnest
slices of bacon tossed few moments
in the pan, until they are crisp and
brown, and accompanied by water
cress salad dressed in vinegar and
salt land pepper. 1t is the only salad
that needs no oil. Swcetbfeads can
hardly be eXcelled as breakfast
meat. They should always be
blanched the day before. Soak them
in salted water for three hours,
changing the water every hour, and
then put them in cold water again
and bring them to the boiling point.
When they are fairly boiling, drain
them and throw them into ice cold
water to cool. They are now ready
to be fried, broiled stewed in cream
sauce, or served in any of the almost
numberless delicious ways IN which
the modern cook serves the sweet
bread, delicacy which our unappre-
ciatiVe ancestors threw to the dogs.

show the hats of some kind of heavy

infancy of being carried off by a

CONSOLS FALL OFF
SPEECH OF SIR MICHAEL HICKS.
BEACH DEPRESSES LONDON
STOCK EXCHANGE
WAR TAXES TO BE INCREASED
Continental Exchange shows Some
Improvement, and Demand for =
Gold in the Open Market
Has Diminished.

LONDON, Nov. 12-The fall in con-
sols, which is partially attributable to
the speech of the chancellor of the eX-
chequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, fore
shadowing increased war taxes, caused
everything to be dull during the early
part of last week; but owing to the brisk
revival in American railway securities,
all the markets closed better Tt seems
to most observers that it would take but
little to start a good upward movement.
With the exception of Americans there
has been but little increase in business,
but the quickness with which prices raj
lied has encouraged a belief that better
markets arc in prospect. The Northern
Pacific settlement is the subject of much
discussion, especially as to whether it is
the beginning of anew boom. If so, the
impression is that this would not re-
ceiye much assistance on the European
side of the Atlantic, because neither the
industrial nor political condition of
Europe would justify confident attitude
on the part of the old-world operators.
Continental exchange has improved
from the London point of view, and
therefore there is no immediate prospect
of gold shipments from London. The
demand for gold in the open market has
also diminished. The price of bar gold
shows a slight decline. The movement
of gold to South America, which began
with the withdrawal of se11S, 900 week be-
fore last, seems likely to be larger than
usual. 1t is recognized here that the
French demand for gold has not been en-
tirely satisfied by New York shipments,
and that it will be necessary to keep up
rates in order to prevent the return of
French capital

WORSE AND WORSE
BERLIN BoERsEt Is GROWING
MORE sTAGNANT EVERY
| WEEK
VALUES ARE MAINTAINED
American Railway Securities Are
Active, With Northern Pacific
Leading the List-Money
Market Is Easy.

BERLIN, Nov. 10.-The boerse has
grown more stagnant, although values
have generally been maintained Some
coal and iron shares improved several
points on the week, but others fell off,
All other industrials We're weaker. Ocean
transportation shares experienced a new
fall, Hamburg American declining 2.59
and North German Lloyd f. The latter
went below par for the first time in
| five years.
The Frankfurter Zeitung explains these
declines by pointing to "the growing con-
viction that the bad Industrial situation
of Europe must eventually affect the lines
very unfavorably.''
The Cologne Gazette argues that the
competition of American anthracite with
German anthracite is not to be feared,
inasmuch as the price of coal delivered
to Rhine boats at Rotterdam Is 90 marks
for the American product, whereas the
German mines offer the same quality at
% marks To this the Berliner TagebIatt
replies that the continued imports OF
American anthracite demonstrate the
ability of the Germans to compete. and
it expresses a hope that American COM
petition will compel the German produc-
erS to reduce prices to a point where i'm
| ports can be easily stopped.
The Franfurter Zeitung reports that
American SPECTATORS are inquiring
whether this is favorable time to in
vest in German coal shares at the pres
ent reduced prices, and that the answer
is generally in the negative
"For this reason says this journal,
''the export of shares to the United
States has nearly ceased, and there is
only very slight prospect of early
resumption"
| American railway securities were act
i've. Interest was confined chiefly to
Northern Pacific, in which, however, real
izations occurred :. toward the end OF
| the week.
The Vossische Zeitung admits that Eu-
ropean boerses now more than ever need
an impulse from Wall street, since the
United States is experiencing the almost
| universal depression to the least extent.
The money market throughout the
week was very easy, the tendency beisg
more and more favorable. Call loans
