CONCERNING FISH.
Cow 10 Avoid Error In Selection and
Preparation.

In view OF the popular belief IN the
danger TO be feared from eating poison

In fish, the conclusions arrived ut 10y
food specialists under the United
States department OF agriculture be-
come of interest While there are sew
eral species of fish which are actually
poisonous. declare the experts, such
fish are mostly confined TO tropical
waters and are seldom found In the
United States. Fish may contain par
asltes, some Of which are injurious TO
man. These are. however. destroyed
by the thorough cooking to which fish
Is usually subjected. The formation of
ptomaines quite generally accompanies
putrefaction, and therefore great care
should be taken TO eat fish only when il
is in perfectly good condition. Fish
which has been frozen and after thaw-
Ing kept for time before it is cooked
is especially likely to contain injurious
ptomalnes. Canned fish should never

Most Psychologists regard fish as a
particularly desirable food for persons
of sedentary habits, as it usually con
tains less fat than is found in meat

The leaner fish, such as cod, paddock,
perch, pike, bluefish, etc, are more
readily digested than the fatter kinds,
such as trout, salmon, shad and mack

Rrain-Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent autbori
ties. They have dispelled the silly
notion that one kind of food is needed
for brain, another for muscles, and still
another for bones. A correct diet will
not only nourish a particular part o.
the body, but it will sustain every 9th.
er part. Yet, however good your food
may be, its nutriment is destroyed by
indigestion or dyspepsia. You must
prepare for their appearance or pre-
vent their coming by taxing regular
doses of Green's August Flower, the
favorite medicine of the healthy mill
ions. A few doses aids digestion, slim
ulates the liver TO healthy action, puri
fies the blood and makes you feel bou
yant and vigorous. You can get DR.

Fried onions as a garnish to beef
steak are, if liked at all, a favorite
dish. At most tables the onions are
served greasy, blackened mass. often
half raw. altogether unpleasing to
view and by no means digestible. This
Is because most cooks cook onions in
a pan with a little butter, a method
that cannot by any skill produce a
satisfactory result. Try the next time
another way. Slice the onions and
soak the slices in milk for at least ten
minutes. Then dip them in flour and
immense in boiling fat for six or seven
minutes. Have the fat heated to the
point that a bit of bread thrown in viii
brown instantly. The slices will not
remain intact. but will cook through
and will not turn black. Remove
with skinner and drain on brown
paper, placing around the steak.

MIsER WORTH SIS. 900.

Timothy McGrath, a quaint West
Side character, was found dead in his
room on West Thirty eighth street on
Friday afternoon. In a tin box in his
room the police found bankbooks rep
resenting accounts amounting to nearly
s25. COO. They also found deeds for a
house and lot In Fortieth street, near
Fifth avenue; two lots near Greenwood
Cemetery, and a deed of plot in Cal
vary.
For twenty years Timothy McGrath,
who was almost totally blind, has lived
in squaIid apartments, which he occu-
pied at his death. There was at first
a great deal of mystery about the old
man. Every morning he would go out
CARRYING in his arms a hurdy gurdy,
and every night he would return and
go to his room. Brown was the only
man in the house he would permit to
enter his room, and Brown it was. who,
during the last few months of his life,
purchased at a. neighboring grocery the
absolute neeessaries of the old mans
life
McGrath was IS yers old. He was a
welI-known figure on the West Side,
and he would station himself on some
Eighth avenue corner every day and
grind out tunes OF his hurdy gurdy and
gather in the pennies which were free
iy given to the old blind man.-New
York Herald.

Chapter 50 of the Civil Laws or 1897
has not been expressly repealed by the
Organic Act. l know of no reason why
it is not consistent with the Constftu-
ton and laws of the United States and
with the Organic Act itself, except in
so far as it may be qualified by the fol-
lowing portion of section 90: Nor shall
any debt be authorized to be contracted
by or on behalf of the Territory, or any
political or municipal corporation or sub
division thereof, except to pay the in
terest upon the existing indebtedness, to
suppress insurrection. to provide for
the common defense, except that in ad-
Gition to any Indebtedness created for
such purpose the Legislature may au-
thoriZe loans by the Territory or any
such subdivision thereof. for the cree
ton of penal charitable and educational
institutions, and for public buildings,
wharves. roads and harbor and other
public improvements, but the total OF
such Indebtedness incurred in any one
year by the Territory or any subdivision
thereof, the case may be, as shown
by the last general assessment for tax
alton. and the total Indebtedness for the
Territory shall not at any time be ex-
tended Beyond I per centum of such as
sessed value, and the total Indebtedness
of any subdivision shall not at any time
be extended beyond per centum of
such assessed value, but nothing in this
provision shall prevent the refunding of
any existing Indebtedness at any time;
nor shall any such loan be made upon
the credit of the public domain or any
part. thereof, nor shall any bond or other
Instrument of any such Indebtedness be
issued unlegs made redeemable in not
more than tive years and payable In not
more than fifteen years from the date of
the issue thereof; nor shall any such
bond or Indebtedness be incurred until
approved by the President of the United
States
While it is not clear to my mind that
the Treasury notes authorized by Act 70
Of the laws of the Provisional Govern
ment are such instruments of indebted
ness as require Presidential approval un-
der thu section of the Organic Act above
quoted, 1 think 1t would be safer
course 30 ask the approval of the Presi-
dent OF the United States.

meat for them, at the rate of IS per
month. Every day an attendant jour
neys to the market for a lot of meat
trimmings. On his return he descends
to the basement and blows a mail
whistle, when the cats assemble from
all directions for their meal. Owing to
the fact that no civil service examina-
