How to Serve Salad.
BY MRS. E. G. STEVENS.

It is in the observance of the nicety of little details of cooking that successful results are assured.
 Particularly is this true in the simpler forms of serving foods.
 Lettuce salad for example. as offered at many tables is plate of withered leaves to be dressed with none too good oil and vinegar, or whatever is preferred by each individual.
 It Is no wonder that the salad is de- clined and that through this careless serv. ing healthful element of A samnIe din. ner Is missing
 The right way Is to put the leaves in cold water long enough to crisn and Ireshen them, after which they may he taken out, dried in a wire salad basket or II that Is not at hand, put into 2 cheese cloth bag kept clean and only for @ eiils purpose, and hang in the Ice or in so oooi pace 10 dry out thoroughly without breaking the leaves.

ment clerk now works only six and a half hours.
 The esent eight-hour bill be- fore Congress, which has been so much discussed, grows out of the effort to find a constitutional way of doing what the Tarsney bill at tempted to do, and what was be- lieved by the laboring men of the country was done. When a prop osition was made to eliminate the narrowing words of the Tarsney act "on any of the pubic works of the United States" the point was raised that legislation would be unconstitutional in that form, and the point was doubtless sound. So I conceived that the government, being a sovereign in making its own contracts, could impose any conditions that the contractor would accept, and that by providing for an eight-hour day in the contract itself the consti- tutional question of jurisdiction was eliminated. The lawyers rep resenting the opposition to this movement then disputed this, but now, four years later, they gen erally concede the correctness of the view. So that if the pending eight-hour bill become a law it accomplishcs just what previous legislation sought to accomplish, but failed to do owing to the in- ability to surmount the constitu- tional barrier.
 Outside of the eight-hour law the United States government has accomplished little in the way of direct legislation in behalf of la DOT, except by the general rule of paying better wages to govern ment employees than are paid to private employees. This has proved effective as an example merely, and has doubtless had a tendency to increase the wage scale generally.
 The difficulty in the way of ac- complishing much lies in the linn tied Jurisdiction of the general government. For instance, Con gress has no power to pass an em- ployers' liability act that would take effect in the States. It has no direct power to regulate the condition of labor in the States except as to contract of the gov ernment. A way through these difficulties will open wider and wider as Congress more and more exercises jurisdiction over mat ters of interstate commerce. Somewhere in the future, when Congress has generally regulated interstate affairs, it will assert the power of regulating the con dition of labor engaged in inter- state commerce, and being en- gagged in interstate commerce, will by construction be carried nearer and nearer to the manufacture of things intended to enter into inter- state commerce.
 The disposition of the national Legislature to trespass more and more on what has heretofore been regarded as the exclusive domain of State power is apparent, and emergencies will impel the nation al courts more and more to up- hold this invas- on of State power. This tendency is not free from danger. because the more general legislation the more restlessness there is liable to be in regard to the general government, and Con gress up to this time has been more radical than the States in the subjects legislated upon, and
The age-herald., 1902-05-18

national officials are more tyranni- cal than local authorities in the enforcement of the law. In time the technical and jurisdictional barriers to strong federal legisla- tion in behalf of labor are likely to give way, and by a broad con- struction of the interstate com merce clause of the constitution labor will receive no less foster ing care than the traffic which now moves across interstate lines,

THE PRESS UNANIMOUS.

There are Of course some newspapers

ty caused by the death of his Iamented
