How to Make Salt Run.
From the New York Press.

"Oh, the weather! This salt won't rum
Certainly not. Perhaps it is real salt and
no real salt will run in damp weather from
shaker. In the first place, there is not a
salt-shaker in the market that is properly
constructed. with the exception of the
broad-gauge affair used in kitchens. The
old-fashioned cooks protest even against
that. preferring the original way of pinch
Ing salt out of box or crock with their
fingers. There Is not salt in the mar
ket that will not grow moist In humid
days Then the cellar should go back on
the table, substituted for the shaker now
SO generally used-and abused. We have
had all sorts of kiln-dried salt, warranted
not to cake; sterilized salt, guaranteed
never to become moist; vacuum process
salt, with prizes offered If it does not run,
etc. All are imposiions. There is only
one way l know of to make salt run in
damp weather. learned it from a res
taurateur who has five gross of cheap
glass shakers for table use When the
wet days come along, with general precipi-
tation along the coast and general humid
little corn starch The proportion is
about thirty parts of corn starch to seven
ty of salt, using. of course, a good quality
of sifted or ground dairy salt which is
the best for table use. There is said to
be nothing deleterious in corn starch,
which has become almost a staple article
in the household therefore a little in
ones salt may be taken Cheerfully. Try
this plan. Nothing like it.

The Intelligencer Of January Is says:

the several fire companies met Monday last
in the hall of the Franklin engine house. to
adopt rules and regulations for firemen's
association. John D. Barclay of the Union
served as president. and ]. H. Smooth of

change of views the subject was referred to
a committee of one member OF each COM
pany.
French S. Evans resigned the presidency
of the Union on February Is, and Mr.. Han

street and Pennsylvania avenue), and at
Babel Buckingham's shop on between
9th and 10th streets, pending the erection
of their engine house at intersection of Sth
street and Pennsylvania avenue. They ap-
piled for the old engine of the Union, which
had been given charge of apparatus for the
protection of the War and Navy Depart
ments and had a committee out soliciting
aid for the purchase of apparatus. The
councils appropriated 81 900 in April to pur-
chase fire apparatus for the third ward,
which, during the pleasure of the mayor,
was to be in charge Of the Perseverance.
The councils also made an appropriation
of $25 per annum for each of the fire COM
panies whose apparatus was valued at $500
or over.
Those present were much interested some
being able to recall the fires mentioned, and
not few had heard from their parents and
others of the long runs sometimes made,
and as stated runs were made to and from
Alexandria.

A Veterans story.

Bath. n. Y, April 1.-THE first con
sideraton of the Commandant and
Officers in the conduct of the Soldier
and Sailors Home here is the health
Of the veterans. Kidney Troubles are
the most common cause of ailmenJ,
very few of the old men escaping these
in some form or other.
OF course the comrades do as much
as possible for themselves and one Of
the most popular and useful remedies
employed is Dodd's Kidney Pills which
seem to be almost infallible in eases
of Kidney arrangements. Indeed,
there are among the veterans several
VINO claim to owe their lives to Dodd'
Kidney Pills.
For instance, a. Il. Ayers, who came
to the home from Minneapolis, Mimi,
was given up by four doctors in that
city He had Bright's disease and new
er expected to live through it, but his
life was saved and his health restored
by Dodd's Kidney Pills.
His experience has made the remedy
very popular among the men, and no
one who has used Dodd's Kidney Pills
for any Kidney Trouble has been dis.
appointed.

The assertion of DR.. Shrady concern
ing the low birth rate among Ameri-
cans of American ancestry are partly
Endorsed by official deductions which
appear in the reports of the last census
Volume III part III on population pre-
sents tables which indicate that the
rate is considerably higher among per-
sons of foreign parentage than it Is
among those of native parentage and
declares that "the changes In the age
the population are caused principally
by decrease in the fecundity of ma.
tive-born women of native extraction"
These changes show n decline in the
proportion of children reported for the
first years of life, and the report adds
that while the loss may be due in a
measure to omissions and misstate-
ments, to slight decrease in the mum.
Der of marriages for American women
and to the postponement of marriage
to later period in life, all these causes
are of inferior importance to the one
first named. A summary is then given
which shows that from 1890 to 1900
there was an aggregate increase in the
native white population of 10,615, 9SS
or Dbl per cent; but after excluding
the children less than 10 years of age
both of whose parents were Of foreign
birth, the numerical increase is re-
duced to, approximately, 1870, 1872 and
the percentage Of increase to 49," The
effect of the exclusion Is particularly

Is from 200 to 9.5. In other parts of
the country this change is South AT.
lantic, 20.5 to 1876; North Central, 81 /
to 1913; South Central 900 to PSI
Western, 41.5 to 325. We quote the
following on the subject from an arti
Gle in the Nineteenth Century: "As late
as 1910 the increase in the population
by reproduction was 2S.01, by immigra
ton 4.66. BY 1890 the first had dwin
died to 14.40 and the second had in
creased to 1916" During the latter
part of the decade 1S90-19OO there wa,
a decline Of immigration, and as re
suit the census returns on population
showed "a relatively smaller increase
than the figures of any previous decad,
since the Declaration of Independence.
Thus the fact of low birth rate seem!
to be pretty well established. WHY
there is an aversion for large famllie.
Is another story.
