Idfe,s surparfiuous Things.

An English writer has been devotins
his attention to the elimination of I'M
necessary things, and has succeeded in
a tentative list of articles
which mankind does not need. Like
many other propagandists Of new
cult he goes to extremes in certain
instances, but, on the whole, makes out
pretty good case. He holds, TO be-
gin with, that the resident Of a city
does not require a watch He goes
so far as to say that an umbrella Is
not Indispensable, and cited Lord Bea-
consfeld. who never carried am am
brella. as an ilustrious example When
It rained he took refuge under the um-
brella Of the prettiest woman he could
see."

Canning Hints.
A~~N~ONN-O~N%

Equal parts of currant juice ana SUI
gar gives a delicious flavor to canned
black raspberries.
The gummed flaps Of unused en-
velopes furnish handy strips to mark
jelly, jam, etc, plainly.
Don't risk spelling a can OF choice
fruit for the cost of new rubber band
for the top of the fruit jar.
If In canning fruit old rubbers must
be used on the jars, try using two at
time to keep the contents Of the jar
alright.
Should the jelly threaten to boil over
while cooking blow hard on the foam
ing liquid and it will at once subside.
To prevent jam sticking to the kettle
when cooking, pour few drops or
olive Oil in the kettle and rub it over
the bottom with bit Of clean tissue
paper.
In cooking gooseberries a piece OF
baking soda the size of a pea, used
with a quart of the tart fruit, Will
materially reduce the amount of sugar
required to Sweeten.

Mary looked very much astonished at
the idea of such late visit. Mr.. Jona-

the idea of admitting a stranger at such

Wild Crane Marmalade.

Take the wild green grapes, cut open
with a small knife and remove the
seeds. Allow a pound of sugar to each
pound of fruit. Put the grapes in the
preserving kettle with a little water
and boil twenty minutes. Add the SUI
gar and cook until a drop poured in
a cold saucer will hold its shape. Re-
move at once and pour in cups or glass
es. In putting up the winter store Of
jellies it is always a good plan to fill
some small cheese pots or egg cups for

FRIDAY, OCTOBER Is, 1905.

A number Of important deals
are reported to be on the eve OF
contamination here, which is at
present making the town sit up
and take notice, and they are
not all mining deals either. One
is a big hotel deal; another a
store deal. An interest in one of
the prominent mining properties
was bonded last week and
claimed to be a sure go, provid-
ed authority can be secured to
sell the remaining interest which
belongs to an estate. 1t is said
upon pretty good authority that
several other bonds now running
on War Eagle mining properties
will be taken up within a very
short time.

For many years the necessity
for national cabinet depart
ment OF mines and mining has
been urged as a requisite part OF
the executive branch Of the II. S.
government. The objections
against the measure have been
met, and the arguments for so
salutary a step are now unan-
swerable. The only objection
noted Of late is that the super
vision Of the mining industry
can be left to the several states
and that the general government
need not be burdened with such
proposed federal supervision.
Such argument is born of ignor-
ance and has no excuse for ex-
istence. If the mining industry
were solely a state matter; if
here and there throughout the
nation there were only a sparse
and sporadic evidence of it's ex-
istence, then, as in similar cases,
it might we'll be left to state SUI
pervision. But it has become
the great basic industry Of the
nation. Many things the several
state governments can have
justly delegated to them for sole
control: in the case of the mining
industry it is due to it's dignity
and Importance that it be ac-
corded the fullest measure Of fed
eral recognition. In our system
OF government the federal power
is dominant, and when it stamps
the seal OF paramount authority
upon an industry, it lifts it to a
height of industrial Importance
denied to anything controlled by
state measures. To such dignity
would the mining industry be
raised by the creation of a cab
met OF mines and mining.-Min-
ing & Scientific Press.
