ance question being considered as q
purely religious question to be handled
only by the churches assisted by the
w. c. T. U. and other temperance or
CARNATIONS.

ideas as being a practical solution Of
the question:
First-'rhe enforcement Of the liquor
laws by the Government official who
has 1t in his power.
Second-Voting for men to go to the
Legislature who are known to be
against liquor
misunderstanding the number OF
saloons for each locality on every Isl
and and the buying by temperance peo
pie of all those licenses and privileges

How Time ls Made Uniform and Cor.
rected.
Strange as It may SEEM Uncle Sam
does not make use Of the sun for rec.
koning time, but turns his attention to
some Of the regular steady going stars,
or fixed stars, as they are called.
Every clear night an astronomer with
a big telescope looks at certain Of these
stars and makes his calculations. from
which he can tell just when the sun
would cross the seventy-fifth meridian.
One Of the great clocks in the observa-
tory is called the transmitter, because
II transmits or sends out the signal
that keeps standard time This clock
is set and regulated by the star-time,
and then every day at three minutes
and fifteen seconds before twelve a
switch is turned on and the beats of the
pendulum Of this clock are sent by
electricity over the wires to the tele-
graph offices in Washington and New
York When the telegraph operators
hear this sound on their instruments
they know that the noon signal is
about to be sent out. and they at once
begin to connect the telegraph wires
with other towns and cities. until IN a
minute or two the tick. tick of the
clock at Washington is heard in hun
dreds of telegraph Offices.
The beats stop at ten seconds before
- as a notice that the next "tick" viii
be the noon signal and so as to give
the operators time to connect their
wires with the standard time balls and
clocks. There are time balls in great
many eities--usually on top of some
prominent building, where they can
easily be seen The cne at Washington
is on the roof Of the State War and
Navy Department Building, at the top
of a high pole, ready to drop the In
stant the signal comes over the wire.
In the government offices at Washing
ton and in many places in other cities
there are large clocks connected with
the observatory by electricity. These
are so arranged that when the IL
o'clock signal is flashed over the wires
the hands of each one OF these clocks
spring to -, no matter what time the
clock may show in this way hundreds
Of clocks are set to the correct time
each day.
Well. the moment the sun is sup.
posed to cross the seyenty-hfth merl
dian the telegraph instruments give q
single tick, the time balls drop, the
clocks begin to strike, and everybody
in the district knows it is twelve
o'clock.-St. Nicholas.

Genuine BAKED seann.

Wash a quart of small white beans
and put them into a kettle Of cold wa
ter; the water should cover the beans.
Put in a heaping teaspoonful of salt
to keep the beans from "mushing.r
Bring the water somewhat slowly to
a boil but do not boil them over five
minutes. Then pour the water off and
put the beans into an earthen or iron
pot. Put in half or three-quarters of
g pound of fresh fat pork--no lean;
salt fat pork if there is no suspicion
of taint is just as good. If fresh
fat pork is used salt must be added
to the taste Fill the pot with water
to the top OF the beans and pork, and
add, if faneied, a half-teaspoonful each
of soda and mustard, and teaspoon
full Of molasses. Bake slowly from six
to twelve hours; a brick oven is pre-
ferred.
