Text Book Issued

The textbook for the congress
ional campaign of 1906, just is
sued by the Republican congress-
ional committee from its head
quarters, 1133 Broadway; New
York city, is a compedium of
authoritative information which
ought to be in the hands of ever
Y voter in the United States.
There is nothing partisan in the
interesting and exhaustive array
of facts and figures save as the
truth favors the Republican side
of public issues before the people.
In the "Foreword" the COM
pliers set forth the Republican
attitude as follows:
1.-The members of progress
i've and healthful political organ
ization representing, as does the
Republican party, a large major
ity of the IS, 900, 900 people and
having in its ranks over 8,OOO,-
900 voters, may have slight diff
ferences of opinion owing to geo.
graphical and industrial condit-
ions. But on the great national
issues of the day the Republican
party is harmonious and united
as never before. All of its rep
resentatives believe in equal
rights and equal opportunity to
all. They believe in upbuilding
the constitution and the statutes.
They believe in protecting our
labor and industries. They are
never concerned about radicalism
or conservatism. They never
theorize or hypothesize. They
are content with practical and
progressive ideas and with ma
turing them into positive per-
formance. The truth is the high
est exemplifcation of Republican
doctrines and policies, and party
record the best plea that can be
made for continuation Of power. p"

THINGS TO BE AVOIDED.
tsmmon Mistakes Made by Inexperl.
enced House FurnIshers-

House furnishing is one OF the
most difficult of arts, especially to the
ambitious housewife, who Is not quite
certain that her taste is all that might
be expected Of her. A few "don'ts"
Will give her little help.
Don't place a bronze figure Of mer-
curry In a window where 1t appears to
be pulling down the drapery with one
hand and crushing down lamp shade
with the other. Place the statue where
1t will seem less destructive.
Don't place a lamp near the lace cur
tain, or in any other part of a room
so that It will keep nervous people
on the point Of starting off for the fire
brigade.
Don't place marble busts or bronze
figures where they look SO insecure
that reading a book near them in COM
fort is an impossibility.
Don't choose pedestals that are so
ornamental that the objects placed on
the pedestals become secondary In
Importance.
Don't buy pedestals any way, II you
can avoid It. If you must have them,
don't place them so near your library
shelves that the books cannot be
taken out without moving all the fur
niture.

Millions of bees, attracted by the

the mines have been shut down until

When cold weather sets in then Is
the time for hot soups. Cream soups
are the rule in summer. Fruit soups,
to introduce midsummer luncheons,
and even dinners, are more and more
used every year In country houses.
Stew fresh cherries, bIackberries or
raspberries In as much water as there
is fruit. Then mash them, press them
through a sieve to extract the seeds,
sweeten. thicken slightly with arrow
root and simmer gently until the soup
is limpid. A little lemon juice OF wine
can be added for zest Or red cur
rants may be used with the fruit.
Fruit soups are served ice cold in
bouillon cups Two or three fresh
cherries or berries are sometimes
ioated in the cups. Grapes may be
used when cherries are out Of season.

For seven years now there has been

Of Commodore Perry when he fought

The fact that the Niagara lies at

by Former Representative s. A. Day-

OF 1893. At that time the question Of
the rehabilitation OF other hiatoric
ships was being widely discussed. and /
II was suggested that among other
famous ships the old Constitution /
should be restored.
Then some one announced that the I
Niagara was still intact in the little
bay near Erie. The knowledge that

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory II the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric Is
hidden behind paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance. but also affects the wear
ing quality Of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fiance Starch. as 1t can be applied
much more thinly because Of its great
er strength than other makes.
