HINTS TO HoUsEKEEPERs.
How to Treat se8Fehed Lard, Boil
Cabbage and Cook Bacon
Properly.

A southern housekeeper says that
scorched lard is not necessarily spoiled
lard. She advises: Put the lard in p
kettle and add an equal quantity of
water. Let it come TO boil. then cool.
The scorched part will settle to the
bottom In the water. and the lard will
be in cake on top which can be lifted
off. Sausage and fried meat fat can be
purified and whitened in the same way,
says the Detroit Free Press.
Those who do not like boiled cabbage
or who want new way of serving it.
may try this way: Pull off the outer
leaves until you come to those that are
crisp and white. Pull them off and
serve them with q mayonnaise as you
would lettuce.
To cook bacon properly cnt 1t very
thin, lay the slices on the broiler. rest
this on dripping pan and put in II
hot oven. Turn once. You avoid all
smoke and smudge, and your bacon is
pink, crisp and delicious and easily di-
gested Bacon is the best possible
meat for breakfast.
Fresh orange peel thrown into WA
ter before it is to be used imparts n
pleasant fragrance and also softens it,.

DISEASES DUE TO FOOD.
a Plain Talk ON the Vital Relation
Which Health SustainE to
the Diet,

The chief diseases which can be
traced to food as their origin are due
TO bad or diseased food, faulty cook
ing or injudicious dieting TO excess or
insufficiercy.
Putrid food. or that which is under
going decomposition. sometimes
causes vomiting, diarrhoea, collapse
or even death. Such cases are apt to
arise after eating sausages, ham. meat
pies or fish not strictly fresh. Rotten
fruit also induces these sympt oms,
says the American Queen.
Meat derived from diseased animals
is fruitful source of sickness. So
called "measly" pork or beef or that
containing bladder worms. when eaten
;imperfectly cooked, gives rise to tape
worms. Pork may contain minute
muscle worms called trich;nae and if
the meat is eaten without very thor
ough cooking these worms will breed
in the eaters intestines. spread
through his tissues and cause the seri-
Gus disease trichinosis. marked by
fever, diarrhoea, muscular pains and
sometimes death.
Sheli-fsh or watercress taken from
ewage-poliuted water may also con.
vey disease, notably typhoid fever,
when eaten raw.
OF all foods perhaps milk is the most
common vehicle of disease germs.
They gain access either through the
air, from sewer gas or from impure
or dirty water used to adulterate the
milk or to wash the milk cans. The
only way to guard against infected
milk is by regular sterilization of the
entire supply before using.
Faulty dieting. due to either bad
cooking, bad arrangement of meals or
bad proportion of the various food ele-
ments, causes variety of dyspeptic
troubled. The chief trouble with
young children caused by faulty diet
ing is ricketts,, showing that there has
been an excess of fats or other fafina-
ceous food that the young stomach
could not digest. The evidences are en-
largement of the bones near the wrists
and ankles, deformities of the limbs.
enlargement and profuse sweating of
the head.
insufficient food causes gradual loss

TAXATION OF CATS.
Argument i'm Favor of Making own
ers Pay Small Fee for Them as
Well as for the Dog

In every considerable community In
this broad land the owner of dog has
been compelled to pay license tax,
while his, neighbours cat has been al
lowed to expand its tail on the wood
shed roof in taXless liberty. The rank
injustice of this discrimination has
been apparent to every catless dog
owner. In the name of kindness a bill
has been introduced in the Massachu=
sets Legislature which provides for a
license on cats, the tax being so cents
each. 1t authorizes mayors and select
men to Kill all unlicensed felipes. In
order to win the support of the lovers
of the cat it is pretended that there
are many starving and boy-tortured
cats which it would be mercy to put
out of the way. In fact, however, there
is little doubt that it is the ippg-ipdig-
nant dog owners who have devised this
scheme of justice.
Dogs are taxed partly as means of
revenue, but chiefly 70 get rid of stray
ours. 1t is urged that dogs are nui-
sance on many accounts. noisy a t night
and danger in the alleged mad dog
season. In the city they are held to be
entirely useless. If a dog be worth his
bones as a guardian of the home he
will be menace to the legs of the let.
ter carrier and to children. The ami
able dog which wags his tail when the
delivery boy comes will welcome a
tramp or burglar as dear friend.
Cats, however. says the Philadelphia
Record, are not less noisy and dangers
Gus than dogs, but the reverse. Their
midnight imitation of a baby with collie
creates an epidemic of insomnia, and
they are as liable as dogs to rabies.
They are vastly more. dangerous as car
riers of disease germs, They lack the
affection and fidelity of the dog. In
short, every argument in favor of dog
license is fully as strong in favor of
cat license.

QUESTION OF SUGGESTION.
There Is Wide Difference as to
Judgment of Weights by Diff
ferent Persons

The judicial minds of the members
of the judiciary committee had lit
tie wrestle with she question of ''sug-
gestion" on a recent afternoon, which
caused no little merriInent and more
surprise. DR.. Macdonald, says the
Washington Star, an expert Grim
inologist, was being heard, and in
demonstrating one of his experiments
he passed to the members two black
weights, both round, and one several
times larger than the other.
Tell me-" he said, as he handed the
weights to Judge Clayton, of Alabama,
"how many times the small weight is
heavier than the large one" Judge
Clayton hefted the two weights. one in
each hand, as instructed, and as he
passed them to Judge Ray, chairman
of the committee, for his judgment,
he remarked: "The small weight is
twice as heavy as the large one"
Judge Ray sat" on the question for
some minutes. He hefted each weight
with one hand and then the other, and
then with both together. then thought
carefully for some time before deliv-
ering the verdict. which was that the
small weight was three times heavier.
The weight went on down the commit
tee with judgments varying from one
and half to three times until it
reached Repres entative Smith. of Ken
lucky. the last man. Mr.. Smith re-
ceived some jocular jolts from mem
bers of the committee while he was
netting the weights. ard when he pro-
nounced them the same weight he was
greeted with roar of laughter from
his colleagues,
"Mr. Smith has guessed right" said
Mr.. Macdonald, "the weights are the
same weight"
He then had to explain to the thun-
derstruck members that it was most
natural to judge regarding the weight
of two things of the same color and of
different size that the larger one would
be heavier. In tSis case. he said sim
ply because he had suggested that the
small one was heavier. the mind i'm
mediately took the suggestion that it
must be loaded. and the Judgment was
occupied with the question of how
much heavier the smaller one was

IN CASE OF ACCIDENT.
4 Thoughtful Provision That Was
Not Gratefully Received by
Prospective Traveller,

When Miss Abby Frazer made her
preparations for trip to Denver,
Col, to visit her sister she was pleas
antly surprised by the interest her
friends showed in her departure, and
pleased by the numerous gifts pre-
scented to her, relates Youths Com
panion.
One friend assured her that dining
cars were so uncertain that wise pas
sengers did not depend on them for
their daily bread but graciously adj
ded that she intended to put up a
luncheon for Miss Abby herself, and
mentioned pound cake with citrOn in
it, nut cookies and fig sandwiches as
desirable portions of the gift.
Another friend brought her long
desired book, while knit slippers a
| work bag and travellers friend"
containing all sorts of things that
are never used by travellers, added to
Miss Abby's delight in her prospect
i've journey.
On the day before her departure
Mrs. Knight relative called and lay
ing a good-sized package on the Ia
BILE, said:
"Well, Abby, / didn't know whether
l should get in to see you or not, but
l didn't forget you, and | guess be-
fore your journey is over you will
have reason to be glad I didn't
Miss Frazer smiled and murmured
her thanks, wondering what delight
full surprise the good-sized package
contained.
Its always best to be prepared
for an emergency" went on Mrs.
Knight, $50 l did up little roll of
old soft linen, which will be excellent
for bruises, and l put in a little nice
lint, in case of wounds or burns.
Then there are some stouter
pieces of cloth which can be used as
bandages and a good pair of sharp
scissors to cut away clothing with.
~ put in some vaseline, too, and a
small flask of spirits. | suppose you
have bottle of ammonia with you?''
"Yes," fnltered Miss Abby. ''but,
Cousin Knight, you need not have
| taken all that trouble"
| Mrs Knight interrupted her: 81
was willing to take it, Abby. In all
| these terrible railroad accidents it
does seem as far as l can make out,
that nobody is at all prepared. If
the cars catch fire and few are
saved, they never seem to have ban
dage or anything at hand to help
| fellow travellers.
81 do hope your berth isn't in the
rear car If 1t is you try and get
transferred. Those rear cars always
get the worst of it. | wonder that
they are used at all"
BY this time Miss Abby's mind
was so filled with the thought of the
perils before her that she almost for
got to thank her cousin, and as Mrs.
Knight babe her a solemn farewell,
all the delights of the pound cake,
| the travellers friend" and the de-
sired book faded in the presence of
the solid-looidng bundle which Mrs.
Knight left behind her.
After watching her visitor out OF
sight, Miss Abby carefully picked up
| the suggestive bundle and opening II
closet door, pushed it far out of sight
on an upper shelf.
"Just as like as not / shall forget
| it," she said. and then, with n faint
chucl<le, 81 don't believe l shall ever
think of it in the world!'
