FOUR DAILY BREAD
Ualuable Suggestions for the
Kitchen and Dining.Roon,.
By KATHERINE KURTZ
swEET sYRUPs USED In CoOK1N
BY KATHERINE KURTz

SWEET SYRUPS USED IN COOKING
OF the class of sweets extracted from plant
or flower, that in most common use is gener-
ally designated as molasses. 1t is the I'M
crystallizable juice of the sugar cane or other
sources of sugar, which is left after the crys-
tallized sugar has been separated.
1t is not SO pure as the crystal!ized sugar,
as it contains matters which have been ex-
PEELED in crystallization. But the remarkable
sweetening properties 1t possesses make it as
useful as sugar for many cooking purposes,
when the flavor or color are not objected to-.
Treacle, MoIasses and Golden Syrup.
Treacle or molasses. as it is ordinarily un-
derstood, is produced when sugar is being ex-
tracted from the juice of sugar cane. while
golden syrup is the same kind of product
when the moist sugar is being refined. The
latter is much lighter in color and clearer
than the former, and is higher In price. but
it's sweetening properties are very inferior to
those of the former. The syrup is seldom
used for cooking purposes. but is used as a
table delicacy. Old-fashioned. thick, sweet
treacle was considered a sufficient laxative
for children and was served them on we'll
buttered bread.
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1902-02-19
Maple Syrup.

Treacle or nlolasses Is obtained from maple
sugar and is known as maple honey in the
Lower Canadas This honey is eaten in
preference to fish on fast days. The crystal
lized sugar of the maple sap has about the
same sweetening powers as cane sugar, but
has other favors peculiar to the sugar which
prevents its being adopted for the same gen.
eral uses as cane sugar; therefore, maple
sugar is rarely purified or discolorized.

UNNECESSARY
To Create Office Of Engineer, Is
Decision of Council.
Especial Correspondence


Barberton, May 21--At the meeting
Of the Council, last week, Engineer
Harry Alcorn was put on the CARPET
and severely criticized by Councilman
McCarty. The office of City Engineer
has never been created in Barberton.
and the Engineer is hired by the Coun.
ell.
1t was suggested that the office of
City Engineer be created. and the En-
gineer be required to give bond for the
faithful performance of his duties. The
matter was referred to the
Ordinance committee, which
presented such an ordinance
to the Council, Monday even
ing. The matter was discussed and
the Council decided 1t was unneces-
sary to create such an Office and the
ordinance was not passed.
motion was then made to require
the engineer to give bond. Mr.. Morton
said that the old Council had implicit
confidence in Mr.. Alcorn, and had new
er required him to give bond and he
thought 1t was unnecessary TO do so
now, and in fact believed 1t would he
impossible to compel Mr.. Alcorn to
give bond, since the city had made it's
contract with him.

the city is afterwnrd to be reimburs-

But 1t Was Only a Tempest In a
Teapot.

Barberton May 21-At the meeting
of the Council a week ago, Mr. Nc
Carly brought up the question as to
what had become of the certified
checks that the contractors, Paul &
Henry and Wildes & Son had been re-
quired to deposit with the city accord
ing to the contracts. Upon investiga-
ton it was found that the checks had
been returned to the contractors after
the contracts were made and bonds
furnished. The matter was brought
up at the meeting of the Council Mon
day evening. and Mr.. VIM. Wilmer,
the village clerk, was present and said
that acting under instructions of the
Council he had returned the checks to
the contractors, there being a general
understanding. on the part Of both
the Council and the contractors that
the checks were to be returned, though
by some error the contracts were
made to read that the checks were to
be retained until the completion of the
work.
At the meeting Monday evening,
Messrs. Paul & Henry voluntarily ap-
peared before the Council and deposit
ed a certified check for $500 for each
Of the five contracts they have with
the city. Mr.. McCarty had
also questioned whether the
bond given by Paul & Henry was
good as Ii contained hut ono napoo
Messrs. Paul & Henry presented new
bond to the Council Monday evening,
which was endorsed by a string of
names several feet in length.
In view of the fact that the origin

contractors, and that Messrs. Wildes
Il Son refused to replace their checks.
1t was unanimously decided to return
those of Paul u Henry. which was
done, and the tempest in a teapot died

New York, May 21.--Presidents of the

Herald, to break the strike of the
miners in Pennsylvania. Every rail
road operating in the anthracite fields
was represented.

mine operators. When the meeting
adjourned it was said the railroads
were prepared for a protracted strug-
gle in which every resource would be
brought to bear upon the strikers. Ar
bitration has been abandoned and the
mine owners intend now to force the
fighting.
One of the railroad presidents who
attended said
.Such a thing as settlement of
the coal strike was never mentioned or
even suggested. We are now prepared
for and expect to fight to a finish.
The situation was discussed at the con-
ference on that basis. What our

There can be no happiness without
health. The general health of woman
is dependent on the local health of the
delicate womanly organs. When there
are debilitating drains, or inflammation,
liberation or female weakness, happiness
in marriage is practically impossible. A
host of happy wives testify that the
secret of happiness in marriage is found
in the use Of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription. 1t dries the drains, heals ul.
ceration and Inflammation and cures fe-
