that no crime committed makes mob

A WORD FOR THE KITCHEN.


Why should kitchens be always built
at the back of the house, where the grass
is trimmed down and slop pals accumu
late? Why have a back of the house,
anyway, instead of two fronts, equally
respected? The writer, says the Cook
ing School Magazine, recalls in Georgia
a long brick house, with three front
doors, one of them the kitchen door.
You could look straight through the
house in pleasant weather, because there
were three other doors facing the ones
that looked over the bay. The rose that
was trained over the drawing room ran
along to the kitchen and peeped in at the
dear old nanny who sang there very
often. To balance things, the peach
tree that was trained, English fashion,
on the sunny wall of the kitchen, eX-
tended it's plant branches to the dining
room grape vines.
Parsley grew in the violet borders, the
cream smelled of roses, and the flavor
of peach leaves that shamed the drug
gists' product fingered in the cake. The
mistress could sit in the drawing-room
and see the children coming home from
school, or guests driving up from either
direction, and, consequently, a fresh
handkerchief and collar were always
ready. Dicey in the kitchen could al
ways see them, too, and cake was on the
plate and Zeke was in his dress coat
when the door knocker raped. And no
one in that house knew the front or the
back thereof. 1t was a kindly and orig
inal old Pennsylvania German who
built a great sunny kitchen where the
company room is generally placed, be-
cause he said, mother" spent nearly all
ner time in the kitchen and she should
have the best. He gained praise in his
country, but no followers.

Ohio has been the mother of sew

others.-N. Y. World.
THE Foraker antitrust bill seems
chiefly notable for the general lack of
trust put in tn. Y. World.
With the republican elephant
standing pat" on Mr.. Roosevelt, we
can see his finish, and its finish, too
st. Louis Republic.
The widening breach between
President Roosevelt and the senate
should prompt some friend of the former
to warn him against the belief that he
is a bigger man than his party.-Chica-
go Chronicle.
Mr.. Roosevelt is encouraging the
idea that his appointees have nothing
to do with the case, and that the people
alone are to be considered in the matter
of nominating the next republican pres
idential candidate; but he told the peo-
pie to go to; and he appointed negroes
to postmasterships for the very obvious
purpose of securing the negro vote In
the convention. For disingenuousness
Mr.. Roosevelt sometimes comes very
near taking the cake. 1t remains to be
seen whether he'll capture the plum.--

VIEW ON THE TARIFF.
The GeneraI Principal That PrOtec-
tiOnisn Is Wrong should Never
BE Forgotten.

The two great parties are fundamsn-
tally divided as jefferson and Hamilton
were. Issues change with changing con-
ditions from year to year, but issues are.
after all, but the application Of funda-
mental principles to conditions, writes
John Sharp Williams, in E~verybody's.
AS to the tariff, the democratic party
stands for the principle that protection
ism is a system of taxation whereby
many are robbed in order that a few
may be hothoused by legislation into
artificial prosperity. The method
whereby protection does this is by de-
tiecting capital and labor from nat
urally profitable pursuits into pursuits
made by legislation profitable. pursuits
which without legislation would have
been less profitable. or perhaps not
profitable at all.
The ultimate goal of democratic striv-
ing is tariff for revenue only" but in
the striving toward this goal common
sense, good judgment and conservatism
will prevail and time will enter as a
factor. Perhaps it might be said that
an ideal democratic tariff for revenue
only" would consist in levying import
duties upon all, or nearly all. imports.
dividing them, however, into three
classes-frst. necessaries of life and
necessaries of industries. second, COM
forts, and third, Injuries,
The general principle that protection
ism is wrong-mCrally Wrong-a prosti-
tuition of government to private ends
should never be forgotten; the goal
ought not to be lost sight of. At the
same time friends Of tariff reform would
not strike down in a revolutionary way
-"overnight," as the Germans say-all
the %scaffolding which the false system
has erected. Even in Great Britain,
where free trade was and is possible,
free trade was not reached in that way.
Duties were reduced amid the dismal
predictions of the advocates of protec-
tionism that destruction and ruin"
starvation a nd poverty would follow.
Destruction, ruin, starvation and pow
erty did not follow after duty was re-
moved. Object lesson after object les
son was thus furnished to the people
of the falsity of the claims of the ad-
vocates of the old system.

ALONE IN THE FIELD.
Mr. Roosevelt Has Selected HjmseIf
as the Republican
Candidate.

Mr.. Roosevelt 10Y informs visitors
at the White House, in that eX-cathed-
raj tone which is at once so impress
sive, and SO dentrificial, that he would
not be surprised to see the democrats
nominate Judge Gray, of Delaware, as
his (my) opponent"
Mr.. Roosevelt, says the Albany ar
gus, takes upon himself, perhaps. toe
much of the burden and heat of the
day. He has selected himself as the
republican candidate, and by untiring
and not too s%crupulous use of the pat
ronage which fell to his hands upon
the death of President Mckinley. he
has rendered his nomination lin our
opinion) inevitable. If he has not vet
Smoked Mark Hanna out" the youth
full supporters surrounding him have,
at least, evolved many pipe-dreams. II
the senator from Cleveland refuses to
fish or cut bait" that may be because
he prefers to row the boat or to carry
home the catch.
If in addition to his arduous duties
in seeing to it that the republican
nomination shall go to the man of his
choice, Mr.. Roosevelt feels d~ivinely
commissioned to adjust the affairs of
the democratic. prohibition, and social
ist-labor participating candidates
for them. with that disinterestedness,
care and ~judiciousness which are so
markedly a part of his makeup and
temperament-the situation devolved
upon Mr.. Roosevelt will be like Mr..
Dooley's Alone in Cuba, only more so.

we're disappointed. Whilst our hus-
bands and brothers are examples of pa

women, we must be patterns of indus
try She did not hesitate to wear a
brown dress and a speckled apron when
receiving fastidious and elegant Wis
lIors at Morristown. 1t was said after
ward that she acquired her inveterate
habit of knitting in her zeal at Valley
Forge to relieve the b%arefooted men
around her. On every fair day she
might be seen walking through the rude
streets of the town of huts with a basket
in her hand. Entering the hut of a SER
geant, she found him dying on a pallet
of straw, his wife beside him in the an
guish of final separation. She minis
tered to his comfort with food prepared
by her own hands. Then, kneeling, she
earnestly prayed with her sweet and
solemn voice for the stricken couple.
All day long she was busy with these err
rands of grace, or in the kitchen at the
stone house, or in urging other women
to lend a helping hand. And when she
passed along the lines of the troops she
would sometimes hear the fervent cry:
God bless Lady Washington or Long
live Lady Washington Well, indeed,
might the men feel that they could fight
to their very last drop of blood with a
commander whose wife, who was for
merly the belle and leader of her set
among the danes and damsels of Vir-
ginia, was not ashamed to be seen darn
ing his and her own stockings!"

ANCIENT EGYPTIAN JEWELS.
Treasure Recently Unenrthed in the
Tomb of King Ter Shows Some
Marvellous Workmanship.

Some of the most remarkable Egyp-
tian jewelry ever discovered has re-
Gently been unearthed. The date as
signed is as remote as 5000 B. c., but
the workmanship in gold and jewels
is marvellous. In exploring the tomb
Of King Ter it was found that the
tomb had been entered for robbery
at some remote period and that the
plunderers had broken off the arm of
the mummy quietly and hidden it in
a crevice in the wall-perhaps on be-
ing discovered or alarmed-and had
never returned to remove it, says the
New York Herald.
On taking off the wrappings Prof.
Petrie found four magnificent brace
let's of gold, with amethyst, turquoise
and lapis lazuli in varied and elegant
adjustments. The gold work was
peculiarly fine and delicate, though
the metal was soft and pure, appar-
emily with nc hardening alloy. The
stones were beautiful and very strik-
ingly and peculiarly arranged.
A number of amethyst beads of the
richest and deepest purple, about a
quarter Of an inch in diameter, are in
the possession Of Mr.. Edward Aver,
Of Chicago. He obtained them from
Dashone, Egypt, they being from the
treasures in the tomb of Princess
Merit, daughter Of Amenhotep H., Of
the twelfth dynasty,

KEEPING WELL IN WINTER.
Plenty of Fresh Air and Caution
Against Exposure to Colds
Are Essential.

Personal cleanliness is the first es-
sential TO good health.
Sleeping apartments that are closely
shut up at night are not conducive to
healthy repose. The sense of languor
and fatigue is always apparent in the
morning. The daily morning bath,
either tepid or the cold plunge. is of
great importance, says American Queen.
Blouses as they are row worn, with
an open network exposing the neck and
chest, are a fruitful source of colds, and
women at all liable to catarrh and chest
troubles should avoid them.
The complete exposure of shoulders,
neck and upper part of back, which re-
suits from modern dinner or ball dress,
is wrong and absurd.
Serious ailments can be constantly
traced to this pernicious habit.
The delicate lung tissue is almost d.
rectly exposed to changes of tempera-
ture, especially in the ballroom. The
woman, probably ~overheated with her
exertions, passes either on to a balcony
u lhtO hOiiO lOObl az q w
temperature, nor does she always take
care to throw some covering upon her
exposed skin.
Too much covering round the throat
in cold weather is inadvisable. 1t has
a tendency to render it delicate and Ii
able to attacks of sore throat.
To keep shut up in overheated rooms,
continually breathing vitiated air, is
harmful.
When walking, keep the mouth shut
and breathe through the nose. By so
doing the air is warmed in it's passage
into the lungs, and the risk of catarrh,
bronchitis and perhaps pneumonia is
minimized.
Food is another commodity which is
necessary for good health. In cold
weather the diet requires to be more
generous than during the summer
months. In winter, especially, we re-
quire food that acts as body fuel, SO as to
keep up the normal heat-such as fats
Clutter, fats of meat, wheat and oat-
meaD, carbohydrates sugars, starches,
etc..
Naturally. much depends upon individ-
ual tastes and digestion. What will
agree with one will by no means suit an
other. The most healthful animal foods
have the most fatty constituents; so also
have grains, -four and meal.
1t does not necessarily follow that the
higher the price of such foods as meats
butter and milk, therefore are they the
most nutritious; for breakfast use the
plain oatmeal or hominy and cook it al
home.
Alcohol in cold weather is unsuitable
especially as a means for what is popu,
larly known as keeping out the cold
Its action is quite the contrary. By fol.
lowing these few simple rules it will be
found possible to go through the cold
est weather and yet keep well.

BROKEN PROMISES.
Tariff Reform by the Republican
Party Not Among the I'M
minent Probabilities.

A good many republican newspapers
are coming TO their senses about the
fallacy of protection. They now say
that it was never intended to perma-
nently adopt the system, but as a mean
to an end. That end, says the st. Paul
Dispatch, was the establishment of our
manufactures upon a basis that would
make them secure against the assaults
of foreign competition. When that was
accomplished, when they should become
able to meet that competition success
fully, then protection had served its end.
fulfilled its mission, and could and
should be discarded"
In spite of this newspaper evidence
have become tired of paying tribute to
trusts and protected monopolies, the re-
publican leaders, including President
Roosevelt, have determined to stand
pat" rather than abate a jot or title of
protection. Thus we have the American
Protective Tariff league, through its or
gan, the American Economist, denOunc-
ing any republican who favors a revi-
sion of the most obnoxious schedule of
the Dingley law, or who even favors
reciprocity to enlarge Jul trade with any
aation who is willing to reciprocate,
The result of this republican league with
monopoly is the great increase in the
cost of living and the decline in wages,
so that nearly everyone is paying trib-
ute to the trusts and even the skilled la
Dor employed in the protected industries
is obliged to accept a smaller income
and pay higher prices for many n%ecessi-
ties. Both those great classes of con-
sumers, the workingman and the farm
ers, are being bled from every port and
are paying a tax to both the govern
ment and the combines, but much the
greater tax to the favored monopolists.
During the last campaign for the cleo
ton of congress the revolt of republican
voters in many districts was only stayed
by promises of reforming the tariff, in
the manner the Dispatch suggests, but
those republican congressman who de-
clared for reform have found 1t impos-
sible to override the decree of their lead
ers to 'let well enough alone" The
emissaries of the protective tariff
league threaten political humiliation
to any republican congressman that
even talks for reform. Most of those
who promised to curb the trusts, by
reducing the tariff duties, did not hon
estly intend to try to do so, relying on
the normal republican majority in theil
district and an ample campaign fund
provided by the trusts, to carry then
through in the coming election.
1t is evident that no relief from trusts
exactions and tariff taxation can be eX
pected from the dominant party. Re.
form may be promised. but they are
welded to their idol and dare not loose1
n stone from the protection wall.
