Hot Water for the Dishes.


How to keep the dishwater hot is a
problem which interests large por.
ton of the women of the land quite
as mach as how to run the govern
ment and some of the other prob
lens which women have taken up
lately. Cold dishwater is and always
has been one of the trials which wom-
an has to bear at frequent intervals.
sometimes because a neighbor comes
to call whom she cannot take into the
kitchen while she is doing her work
and sometimes because the baby
needs attention or something else hap
pens to take up her time. To put the
pan on the stove means scalding hot
water and possibly damaged crockery
and china when she returns, and to
leave 1t in the sink means cold water
and all the grease hardened and
stuck fast to the dishes.
That is to say, this has been the
state of affairs previously, but now
there is a dishpan which seems to
have the faculty of keeping the water
at just about tho proper temperature
when the dishpan happens to be left
full of unwashed dishes for a half
hour or SO. This plan is provided with
a wide fiange around the edge which
elevates the bottom from the hot sur
face of the stove sufficiently to pre-
vent the water from reaching the
boiling point. 1t will also be seen
that there is a double compartment
inside the plan, one space being util-
lied for the rinsing water and the
other for that in which the dishes are
washed. 1t is possible TO draw the
water off from either compartment
without lifting the heavy pan, fau-
Get being provided for this purpose.
1t might also be possible to utilize
this dishpan in conjunction with n

Wears a oneen,s Crown.

When Jay Gould as a young man
was wandering about the country try
ing to sell books the queen Of Spain
was wearing as her crown the valu-
able possession which now often
graces the head of the book canvass
er's daughter. When Queen Isabella
was exiled she carried with her most
of her jewels. One of these was
crown set with some of the finest
diamonds, emoralds, rubies and sap
phires in the world. A few years ago
Spanish grandee, known as the
Prince Drago, came to America. His
sole fortune consisted Of the gorgeous
crown which had belonged to his
grandaunt. The imperial bauble was
offered for sale and was eventually
bought by the Goulds for $125,000. 1t
is now worn by the Countess Castel-
lane.-Ohio State Journal.

good news to many to learn that there
Is a never falling remedy for every
form of Heart Trouble.
Mrs. IL. ID. Hyde of this place, was
troubled for years with pain in her
heart which distressed her a great
deal. She had tried many remedies
but had not succeeded in finding any
thing that would help her until at last
she began a treatment of Dodd's Kid
ney Pills and this very soon relieved
her and she has not had a single pain
or any distress in the region of the
heart since. She says; 81 cannot say
too much praise of Dodd's Kidney
Pills. They are the greatest heart

Military Educ alton Science.

In the course of the discussion
which Is now going on in England
over the place Of science in military
education. one fact has been insisted
upon by. every pleader for more sci
ence, namely. that the defect OF class
ical education as well in military and
naval matters as in the other profess
sions Is as much In the mental habits
1t produces as in the knowledge which
1t fails to impart.
It not only furnishes the student
with an outlook on the world. based
on the science of the year / B. c., but
1t equips him with intellectual tools,
beautifully ornamented, and of great
artistic perfection, but as hopelessly
inadequate to the needs of modern
life as are now the bow and arrow in
warfare. The claims of a quack or
the revolutionary discovery" I'M
earthed by an imaginative reporter,
seem to the classicist as Inherently
probable and far more interesting
than the carefully worded announce
ment of a great scientist. There Is no
difference In probability, so far as he
can see. regarding the truth of the
announcement that a South American
traveller has discovered bush pro.
ducing worms as fruit, and the claim
of an Indian doctor that mosquito
bites cause malaria.
He accepts statements as facts, be.
cause some great man has made

is this attitude Of mind, this confus,

the heaviest indictment against the
classical school,

Of the Philippines.

OF the philippines.
Big grasshoppers, such as grow fat
and buzz loudly in the Orient, are
looked upon as table delicacies in the
Philippines.
There are several methods used by
the natives for catching grasshoppers.
The most effective is the net. This Is
a large butterfly net, arranged with
netting placed over hoop, and to the
latter is fixed long handle.
The hopper is first so thoroughly
dried out in the heat OF the sun or in
the bake oven that there is nothing
left that is really Objectionable. and a
nice crispy article of food results. This
tastes sweet of itself, and something
like ginger biscuits. The natives usu-
ally sweeten the grasshopper more by
using a sprinkling of brown sugar.
Then the confectioners make up grass
hoppers with sugar. chocolate trim.
mings. and colored candies in such a
way that a very nice tasting piece Of
confectionery is obtained. The house
wife of the Philippines takes consider
able delight in placing before you a
nice grasshopper pie or cake. The
grasshopper pie is the most wonder
full dish, as the big hoppers are pre-
pared in such way that they do not
lose their form.

EASTERN USES OF PAPER.

The Japanese use paper at every
moment. The string with which a
deft-handed darling of the gods" does
mp the articles you buy is made of
paper. The handkerchief (thrown
away after use) is paper. the parti-
tons dividing the houses are paper,
and the pane through which an indis-
Greet eye looks at you is paper! The
pane is certainly wanting In transpa-
rency. but there is simple remedy.
One finger is passed through the pa.
per-that is all! Afterward small
piece is stuck on the opening with a
grain of rice.
The mems hats, the cloak OF the
porter who carries his burden, sing.

garment Of the boatman who conducts
you on board, the tobacco pouch. cigar
case-all are paper! Those elegant
flowers ornamenting the beautiful hair
of the Japanese ladies'. and those
robe collars which are taken for Grape
paper!

season had been an exceptionally bad
one for farming, but in church not
far from Arbroath the officials had re-

the annual harvest thanksgiving serv-
ice. It was noticed that on that par.
ticular occasion Mr.. tombstone. q reg.
ular attendant and pillar of the church

POLiCEMEN'S WIDOWS.

Some would be ecOnOmizers Of pub.

II incumbent upon them to bring abour
conditions under which It has been
made possible to deprive II number
of poor widows Of former police officers
of the pension left them by their de-
ceased husbands.
These men served the city ana The
community well, and the idea oil de-
miving their poor unfortunate widows
of the small stipend accorded them
for their support in their old age. Is
opposed to every sentiment of Ordi-
nary humanity. The grounds upon
which these poor creatures support Is
denied them Is that the act amend

This Is II very poor ana II very narrow
technical excuse for the great city of
Chicago to so upon considering all
the circumstances. The ruling has
been made upon an opinion rendered
by Corporation Counsel Tolman, who
we believe unwittingly made great
mistake and worked grave hardship
In this case.
We hope Mayor Harrison will find
some means Of avoiding 1t. by doing
so he would greatly enhance his popu-
