this IN choosing a hat for summer wear
Choose darker shade or else get pure

than an ostrich feather out Of curl. and
that Is the way It gets almost imme-

10 her affections and the unsubdued will
OF her children. These errors. are often
productive Of great injury 10 the in
uuised and pampered Daring of ma
ternai care; but there is stiII left in
the heart OF the child a feeling of ten
derness. which. as he goes out into the
world, instinctively turns him back to
the fountain of his mothers love. and
these thoughts OF home and mother
keep fresh and bright the thoughts of a
sinless. happy childhood. To these
thoughts the man Is glad to turn for

sorrows Of life press heavily upon him
Ihere are, however, a Few instances

be good and thorough education pro-

Eggs for the Invalid

a raw egg is an excellent tonic and
is very strengthening. If prepared in
the following way 1t IS really delicious
drink. Put the yoke of an egg into a
dish with a teaspoonful of orange. OF
lemon Juice. and beat lightly together
with fork. Put the white on a plate
and add a pinch Of salt; then. with a
broad-bladed knife, beat it to a stifr
froth.
Now. as lightly as possible, mix all
together IN the dish, then as lightly
transfer il TO a clean tumbler. which il

must not stand In warm place. as II
soon becomes LIQUID and loses its snowy
look. Any fruit juice may be used in
place of orange or lemon.
Another very acceptable way to pre-
pare raw egg nourishment Is similar 10
the above, with the addition OF cream
or rich milk. Use an egg two or three
days old. separate and beat the white
very stiff. adding a teaspoOnful Of sugar
and pinch Of salt; beat the yOlk until
light and foamy, add little sugar, four
tablcspOOnfuls Of cream or rich milk
and any hayOring best liked 0y the pa
uent. Put the piled up white into a
dainty dish, and pour the raw cUstard
over It having first put enough Of the
white into the yolk TO give Il a foamy
look. Many inValids to whom eggs are
not pleasant have taken them prepared
In this way with little objection.
a very delicate baked egg is prepared
this way: Separate, being careful not
TO break the yolk. add a pinch of salt TO
the white. and beat IL very stiff. Pile IL

here in the United States is nearly
equal to the average monthly pay Of
the Indian laborer, while our freight
rates are much lower here than in

free traders tell us that our American
railroads have to pay $28 a ton for

the railroad magnates were between

With the near approach Of the con-
ventions and the question Of the NOM
nations becoming more or less set
tied, attention is now directed to the
subject of the platform declarations
for this years great campaign. AS
usual, there is plenty of evidence of
attempts at temporizing by those who
have no settled convictions on the
great issues of the day, and who are
ready always to sacrifice principles 10
the hope of catering to the uneasy
element that is always very noisy in
the beginning Of a campaign. Evil
dences OF this are found in both par
ties. Sturdy advocates of the doctrine
Of protection are confronted by an ele-
ment in the party that is ready to
make concessions to "revisionlsts" and
to reciprocity" advocates. The DEM
ocrats are troubled by the noisy cla-
mors of the old-time silver shouters,
who cannot be convinced that the
money question is settled and that
free silver is as dead as Organism.
A determined effort is being made by
the really courageous leaders Of the
Democratic party to line up the party
in favor Of an assault all along the
line upon the principles of protection.
They desire to make the emphatic de-
mand that protection shall 60 and
that tariff shall be revised by the
Democratic party without reference to
protection to the industries Of the
United States.
