Water that has stood long in the tea-kettle either before or after boiling should not be used for tea Put in the tea-kettle just sufficient quantity of fresh, hard water, bring it quickly to a vigorous boil, scald the teapot for moment, put in the tea (either all black or mixed) and pour the boiling water upon it inn mediately.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 17, 1903.

Antitrust and tariff agitation are not favorable to the stock market, says Banker Henry Clews. Recent events connected with the coal crisis are also calculated to create political disturb ances. These are influences on which the investor, and especially the specu- lator, must keep close watch. It must be confessed, also, that many stocks seem excessively high and not very attractive investments while money continues at its present level. If money remains dear these high-priced stocks will have to yield, unless better divi- dends are in sight. On the other hand there are plenty of stocks which have not had an advance corresponding to their improved condition. By careful discrimination such stocks can be picked up at profit, for we are likely to have an irregular market offering good opportunities for quick turns.

"De 1nncey,s Ancient Pine."

e,here is an interesting pine tree in Bronx Park, close to the entrance of the Geological gardens, that is worthy of greater honor than is usually accord ed it. To few old-timers who remem- Der the locality before it ever became a part of New York this old tree goes by the name of De Lancey's pine. A poem has been written about it, set- ting forth the virtues of 'De Lancey's ancient pine" The tree is by far the talIest for miles around and although it's lower branches have been badly treated, a towering mass of green boughs surmounts the majestic sur vivor of the days when the old De Lam cey family owned a large portion of the estate now in the Bronx park do- main. The old De Lancey house, that was the scene of many gay parties in pre-revolutionary days, was burned down about 30 years ago The tall pine is supposed to be close to 15Oyears old at the least, and it's present condi- tion is favorable for at least another century of life.-N. r.

HOW SHE PASTED IT.
A Young Housewife's Terrible Time PrepGriRg Her First Chicken
 for the Oven.

Said a woman who knows how to cook nearly everything, relates the New York Herald: T was very young and unworldly when was first married, and had lot of things to learn about the simplest affairs of housekeeping. It was shocking, l know, not to know how long to cook an egg, for instance. I left the first cooked stay on 20 minutes, be- ieve. Walter was aVfully consider, ate, and hated to hurt my feelings. When the first batch of bread made could not be sliced concluded that I had better get cook book and learn in earnest.
 ''The first thing wanted to do, of sourse, was something wildly amhi- tious. I had no mother to go to for advice, and as Walter and I were miles away from his family, it wasn't much better that way.
 CT am going to have 8 chicken told my husband.
 "'Don't you want me to select it?' my husband asked.
 "But I said no, and stubbornly started out to get it.
 "It was round and plump-looking creature, and I fancied the surprise I would have in it for Wally.
 "T'hen I took the book and gave it a thorough examination for how-to- cool-a-chicken recipes. There seemed to be numberless confusing ways, and I had difficulty in selecting one that looked simple.
 'I had sca1ded the hen, and in talk ing off the feathers had torn the skin somewhat. Twas wondering what to do with it, when saw those never | to-be-forgiven words: sBaste well.' Certainly I would baste well. Had I not seen, in my grandmother's kitchen once. the very needle and 1 thread they evidently meant? She had used it, I found out later, for 1 sewing up the stufing in a turkey. But, never pausing to consider what reason she might have had, I leaped ! to the first conclusion that entered my mind.
 "I would baste we'll.
 ''I obtained large darning needle and a stout thread, and carefully sewed and darned the wrinkled skin of that fowl. It was sight for gods when I got through-so knit and lznotted that Wallys knife and cary ing fork caught in the charred stitches when I had it cooked after -four hours.
 "What's the mattec?" asked my husband, looking up at my tear stained face, as he probed and sawed and got tangled up in the basting. #
 "I'm sure I don't know I said, and broke down completely. T pasted it we'll I managed to bfurt | out between sobs.
 "'Basted it!' said my husband "Well, I should say you did, and when I quieted down he told me what 'basting' meant. laughed, too, but it was horrible, nevertheless"

OUR eoY.

 change
 That we never have noticed before. His shoes are quite carefully shined And the bow of his necktie is neat. He has purchased cane, and it looks rath-

Apropos of the use of the word "scab" which is heard so frequently of late, an article in Gunton's Maga- zine for January is of more than ordi- nary interest Professor Gunton in his article has undertaken to differ entiate the ''scab" from the non-union Workingman. Not all non-union men are ''scabs," but all ''scabs' are non- union men. Professor Gunton finds that the non-union man is simply laborer or mechanic who does not join the union. Usually he is indifferent to the benefits of cooperation. Some times he objects to the payment of dues. Occasionally he is on unfriend- Iy terms with the officers of the union. But these non-union men are generally in sympathy with the spirit of union ism, and in the event of strike they walk out with the unionists, stay out with the unionists and return to work with the unionists under the agreement reached between the representatives of the employer The "scab," how ever, is man who takes the place of the striking unionist. He is usually "a loose. irregular, disreputable, quasi tramp laborer," to use the language of Professor Gunton. He seldom works regularly and is almost never good workman He is a camp-folIoWer ot labor disturbance. He is attracted by the exceptional inducements held out by the employer to the strike breaker
 Sometimes his wages is 50 per cent higher than the strikers asked, and often he receives board and lodging in addition. He generally spells as much as he accomplishes; but the employer tolerates him to weaken the spirit o1
 the strikers. Professor Gunton IS o1
 the opinion that there is little of the
 hero in the ''scab;" that he makes the iob worse for himself, and for every
 body else; that his attitude is that o1

Witness at Glenn Trial Tells
 of an Americans Fate.
BODY WAS THROWN TO THE HOGS.
Horrible Deed of Samar Insurgents Narrated by an Eyewitness. Am Inspector Attacked
 by BOIomen.

MANILA, Jan. 17.-At the continual tion of the trial of Major Edwin F. Glenn of the Fifth infantry, who is charged with unlawfully killing seven prisoners of war in Samar, Spaniard who was at one time held prisoner by the insurgents testified that while he was confined at the headquarters of General Lukban in Samar in May of 1900 he saw an American prisoner roasted to death. The Spaniard said sticks were driven into the mans body, and he was slowly turned over the fire until dead. The body was then left to be devoured by hogs. He did not know the mans name, but thought he was an officer. Several American officers and men were captured or reported missing in Samar in 1900, and the vic tim is believed to have been one of these.
 Other witnesses reviewed the Balan- giga, Gandara and Catubig massacres The defense produced letter written by the insurgent leader Guevarra, in which he admitted that the Balangiga massacre was contrary to the laws of war.
 Captain Abraham F. Burlington of the First infantry testified that Briga- dier General Jacob H. Smith frequent Iy offered protection to the natives and urged them to come inside the Ameri- can lines. Lieutenant Pratt testified that General Smith in his orders had directed that the war be waged. against ablebodied men, not against women and children.
 Constabulary Inspector Fletcher while travelling alone in the province of AIbay, Luzon, last Wednesday was attacked by thirty bolomen. Fletcher killed five of his opponents, but was himself wounded. He escaped, how ever, and formed party which pur- sued the bolomen, overlook them and killed six more.
 Death sentence has been imposed upon one of the natives who murdered five American soldiers in the cemetery at Binangonan, Luzon, on Decoration day of last year.
