THE COOKBOOK.

In baking bread it is better to overdo
rather than underdo the work.
To make a good digestible pie crust
use cream instead of lard, and it will
be light and healthful.
If there is not batter enough to fill
the gem pan, put cold water in the
empty space before setting the pan in
the oven.
The rich cheeses, which have the
largest percentage Of fat, are those
which blend we'll with bread in sand
wiches or with macaroni or rice.
For a quick cake beat until thick
four eggs Add four tablespoonful Of
sugar, half a cup Of -four, little Gin
namon and lemon rind. Beat well and
spread on baking pan. Bake in quick
oven and cut at once.
Sweet potatoes are much richer twice
cooked. Baked or boiled merely, this
vegetable is good, but when the bak-
rng or boiling is followed by a subse-
quent cooking in the pan or in the
oven they are far better.
A fine cheese pudding is made by
grating five ounces of bread and three
Of cheese Warm two ounces of butter
in a quarter Of pint of fresh milk and
mix thoroughly. Add two we'll beaten
eggs, salt and bake half an hour.

While the Yankees are stealing our trade

And are boasting Of swapping US out as

It's a comfort to hear
That in one little sphere
Our benighted old country is holding her
By the help of secret to others unknown.
They may capture our markets for iron

They may swallow our ships in Nor

They may show US how rotten
Our lead is in cotton.
May send US their linen, their hemp and
their shoes.
And their writing machines they may
force US to use;
They, may. keep US in maize, and may
flood US with wheat
They, may beat our poor farmers with
fruit or with meat,
For, indeed. it's tremendous
What treasures they send u.s.
And yet we have beaten them clean out
of time ~

The European Plan.

Some queer customers are seen at

Colonel Anderson.
Colonel James Anderson, Allegheny's
first ironmaster, will have a statue
erected in his honor. says a special dis
patch from Pittsburg to the New York
World. 1t was in 1853 that Colonel
Anderson built his mansion in Allie
gheny and placed 400 books in his libra
~. He invited the working boys to
come and borrow books, which he loan
ed out in two weeks stretches. Andrew
Carnegie was among the readers, and so
was Henry C. Phipps, his partner. Mr..
Carnegie recently gave Chester French,
the sculptor, an order to design a monu-
ment to cost $4,000 to Colone! Ander-
son.
This design has been placed in the
Allegheny library, and arrangements
will be made for the erection of the
statue. 1t was this act Of Colonel An
derson, Mr.. Carnegie said, that made
him resolve if he should ever have sur
plus wealth to devote it to the extension
Of free libraries.

ENGLlSHMAN AND TURK.
Row the Former Obtained Some Cash
Owed by the Latter.

How the Former Obtained Some Cash
Owed by the Latter.
An Englishman has just had very
curious experience, says the London
Telegraph. He had lent Turk some
money, but the man was unable to
pay and on his deathbed laid par
ticular charge on his wife and chill
dren to meet the debt. The eldest son
was making arrangements according
ly, but also died, and he, too, begged
his family to pay the money as soon
as they could.
One day the Englishman received a
visit from member of the family,
Who said that there were now four
members of it left, and they were
ready to pay, but one Of the daughters
refused to subscribe her share, declar-
ing that the money was never really
lent The others, however, wished to
settle the matter, and If the English
man would come to the house it would
be arranged. But" the Turk added,
eff you see there is any difficulty just
say that you leave it to be settled in
the next worldv'
Accordingly the Englishman went to
the house at the appointed time and
met the family in the presence Of a
mollah, the ladies being behind
screen. The mollah began by asking
If he had truly lent the money, how
much it was and if he would take any
less. One of the women behind kept
saying it was all fraud. The English
man then declared that he had lent the
money, that he had not asked for it,
that they had told him to come and
get it and if they did not want to pay
it he would leave the matter to be set
tied in the next world.
There was dead silence for few mo-
ments, and then the women called
their brother. and each paid her share
without a word. 1t seems the prospect
Of meeting the father in the other
world without having carried out his
wishes was too serious thing to face.

Death In Their Work.

Gilders, photographers and those who
handle the hydro and potassic cyanides
are liable to suffer from chronic poison
ing by hydrocyanic acid. They have
headache, giddiness, noises in the ear,
difficult respiration, pain over the
heart, loss of appetlte-in short, show
all the evidences of mild poisoning.
Zinc workers, too, suffer. Zinc is used
as a pigment in calico printing, in dis
coloring glass, in polishing optical
glasses and in making artificial meer-
schaum pipes.
So men die in harness in these and
a hundred other occupations, killed by
the very air they breathe, and other
men step into their shoes.-New York

FATHER OF ARBoR DAY.
School Day Stories of the Late Julius
Sterling Morton. >y

School Day Stories Of the Late Julius
Sterling Morton. >y
On the yellow page Of a cherished
album which belonged to little Ster-
ling Morton's mother appears the name
Of the late Julius Sterling Morton
written with fingers tri1e uncertain
in the use Of pen and ink; also julius
Sterling Morton inscribed in quite a
masterful manner by the ten-year-old
boy.
All the young people Of the United
States know about Arbor day and what
a delightful experience it is to have
the holiday, to speak pieces and plant
the schoolhouse, and now I am going
to tell some stories about the youth Of
the originator Of Arbor day, says Lou
Use R. Baker in the Washington News.
julius Sterling Morton was born on
April @, 1882, at Adams, Jefferson
county, N. Y, his father, julius Dewey
Morton, being twenty-four and his
mother, Emeline Sterling Morton, twen-
ty years Of age. Before the baby was
three years old the family removed to
Monroe, and it was in that place the
greater part Of his boyhood was spent.
"He was the best little boy l ever
knew" says his cousin, Aunt Betsy"
her kind face beaming with pleasure
"He obeyed his mother implicitly. Once
for some childish misdemeanor he was
hidden to sit in his little chair until
given permission to leave it. Then the
child's mother went from the room,
and the mischievous young Sterling's
uncles set their wits to work to make
their nephew disobey. They begged,
they coaxed, they offered brides, spoke
enthusiastically Of the wonderful things
to be seen out Of doors and ran to the
window to watch the strange people
passing, but their efforts we're all in
vain, as the dear little fellow, with
faraway look in his eyes and his lips
closed firmly, remained in his chair
and refused to be tempted"
Sterlings uncle, Joe, aged sixteen,
was especially fond Of amusing him
self at bis small nephew's expense.
He entered the room one evening
when the boy was kneeIing by bis
mother repeating his nightly prayers
and, not noticing the devotional atti-
tude, made a teasing remark.
Whereupon Sterling, who was just
saying with great solemnity, II pray
thee" exclaimed, Excuse me, Lord"
and, jumping up, seized the first thing
he could find, which happened to be
cat and threw it forcibly at his uncle.
Then be knelt again and continued his
prayer as devoutly as if there had
been no interruption.
Three-year-old Sterling was always
adding something original to the pray
ers his mother taught him and aston
ished her very much on one occasion
by closing the petition that his father,
absent on a journey, might be brought
home safely with these words, en-
phatically spoken: "And please give
him good coffee while he's gone"

Southern Isolation.

Much has been written and sale
about the cheering and hopeful sig
nifcance of the late congressional
election; and yet. to Southern
man, there can be scarcely any.
thing more disheartening than con-
temptation of the political situation
as it exists today.
Democratic newspapers have
proclaimed gains for the party
here, there and everywhere. One
enthusiastic journal has gone so far
as to say that while the election
was not q Democratic victory, it
wac Republican defeat. This is
"a most ingenious par adox."
The facts in che case are that the
Democrats carried the solid South,
and the Republicans carried all
the rest of the nation. Demo-
cratic gains were made here and
there, it is true but not to an ex-
tent to affect, in an appreciable
degree, the relative strength of
the two parties in the next con-
gress, or to hold forth any reason
able hope that the next presiden-
tial election will be different from
the usual Democratic experience.
1t is not SO much party defeat
that disheartehs the Southerner,
however, as the marked and in
creasing isolation of the South in
the political, business and social |
life OF the nation. Whatever rep
resents southern ideas, wishes and
ambitions is foreordained to excite
The hostility of the rest of the
nation.
For eight years the South in
iustrlously courted the West, !
Daoclaimlng that the two sections
