Cities of Homes.
From the Manchester IN. H. Union.

From the Manchester IN H. Union.
Manchester has often been pointed out as
a city of homes; that is, a city in which a
larger than usual proportion of the. people
own their houses According to census
statistics, there are only twelve cities In the
United States in which over a per, cent Of
the families are owners of the houses which
they occupy as homes, and these cities are
Akron, Ohio; Auburn, D.. Y; Canton Ohio;
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Jackson, Mich; La
Crosse Wis; Racine, ILL.,; Oshkosh, Wis:
Saginaw, Mich; South Bend. Ind; Spring
field H., and Youngstown, Ohio. 1t Ia
pointed out that nearly all of these cities
are In what is known as the middle west,
and are manufacturing towns. That Man.
chester is not in this list may at first appear
surprising until 1t is considered how large
a floating population is credited to this city

Canned Salmon.

A very good substitute for fresh salmon
is that which is put up in cans, which is
really very delicious and may be prepared
in so many delightful and appetizing ways
that we can hardly realize the fact that the
fish is not fresh. AS far as the nutritive
quality of the fish Is concerned, that which
is canned contains really a greater proper
ton, as everything In the nature Of food
value is retained in its preparation. How
ever. the true lover Of salmon would not
hesitate to choose between the two, and as
there is generally no lack of supply of
the fresh fish, except In small country
towns remote from large cities he is free
to indulge himself in this wish If he
chooses. For those who find it difficult to
secure the fresh fish we will give a few
recipes for the canned

Boobies of Fernando Pc.
From the New York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune.
An intrepid explorer Of the queer Island
of Fernando Pc reports that eccentric ma
tives, known as Boobies" wear no clothes
upon their bodies, but cover their heads
with odd straw bonnets. They seem to re-
semble the famous African potentate whose
royal attire on state occasions was limited
to a stovepipe hat and paper collar, relics
of an unfortunate missionary who had been
the chief object Of interest at banquet
given in honor of the cannibal kings birth
day and the anniversary of his accession
to the throne.

1T IS not for me TO point the way TO

AS matters stand. there viii not be
money enough to enable the growers 10

That there are Republicans who real
ize the serious difficulty which he points
out cannot be doubted. The reeommen-
dations Of the President for financial
legislation are beginning TO be very
seriously considered. and much mare
thought and attention is being paid TO
the bin which Representative Fowler,

troduced. The bill is now before the
Committee on Banking and CurreHcy. OF
which Mr. Fowler is the chairman. and
it is receiving Endorsements daily from
the leading chambers of commerce and
