MUST FURNISH PASSES.
Railroads in France Issue Annual
Tickets to Senators and
Deputies.

With the pass-bribery nuisance
France deals in summary fashion,
Railroads have no chance to win the
good will of French deputies and
senators by surreptitious favors.
Every French senator and deputy has
by law an annual pass on every rail-
road. This the government compels
the railroads to furnish, says Every
body's Magazine. Then the govern
ment deducts for the pass ten francs
a month from the pay of the senator
or deputy. The railroads get nothing.
That is the extent of that perform
ance. The passes are provided to at
ford the senators and deputies op-
portunity to acquaint themselves with
conditions in the country and every
part of it.
The president of the republic must
be transported on public business at
the expense of the railroads. That is
the law, and the service entails no
kind of obligation on the presidents
part. Even if the companies were to
furnish him with a special train of
beautiful cars that would mean moth
ing, because they are obliged to trans
port him with their best devices any.

CARE OF REFRIGERATOR.
Soon as Anything Is Spilled, Wipe It
Up. Keep Pipes Clear, and
Plenty of Ice.

Essential to the proper care and use
of refrigerator are these three
things: Clearing out the waste pipes,
instant removal of anything spilled,
ana a full supply of ice. If the COM
partments in which the food is kept
be wiped out carefully once a week, no
crumbs, drops of liquid, or particles of
food being left to accumulate mean
while, there will be no need of other
attention.
Once week let the ice supply run
low; then remove the ice, wash the
flour under the rack upon which the
ice rests, take out trap and removable
drain pipe, and, with cloth fastened
to rod or wire, clean out these with.
a strong solution of sal soda. Pour the
same down the remainder of the waste
pipe, making sure that the pipe is
cleaned as far down as can be reached
Keep the ice compartment filed
with ice; a large body of ice keeps
better than a small one and insures
better circulation of air Keep the
doors shut. Keep milk in closed bot
ties or in a compartment by itself;
also butter, as they quickly absorb the
flavors of vegetables and other strong
foods.-Chicago Tribune.

English Railway Accidents.

The general report of the London
hoard of trade on railway accidents in
1904, states that the danger of railway
travelling has been reduced to such a
point that in 1904 the chances against
passenger being killed in train
accident in the course of a given Jour
ney were more than 2OO,OOO,OOO to /
The risks incurred by railway serv-
ants. especially those concerned with
the movement of traffic, are of course
much greater. In their case there is
an element of danger which cannot be
dominated though its effect may be
minfmized by the adoption of suitable
appliances and safeguards. The in
cIeasing use of such appliances is hav-
ing an appreciate effect, but it is
claimed that the carelessness engen-
dered by familiarity with dangerous
conditions appears to be responsible
for so many accidents that it is I'M
reasonable to expect any marked re-
duction in the total number of acct
dents to railroad servants.

SPORTS OF CHILDREN.

Skipping rope Is a childish pastime
Of ancient origin. In place of rope,

The childish amusement of riding a

and ancient Rome.
The game of hide and seek Is an
other youthful pastime of ancient
origin. It came from Europe about
the beginning of the seventeenth CEN
fury.
The spinning of tops, a favorite
amusement among children in the

Leap-frog is mentioned in the

SHERBERTS AND ICES.
the Making of Various Frozen
Desserts.

Sherbet is a modern evolution of an
ancient cooling drink common in the
east from the days of the crusaders.
Then, as now, it was iced and made
from fruit juices slightly calculated
with lemon or tamarind juice and
chilled with snow. By and by came
European traders to the land of the
rising sun, who first enjoyed sherbet
au naturel Then, enfeebled by the
climate. they added alcohol to the
original thirst quencher, but still
drank it cold, chilled by SHOWS. Re
turning north, it occurred to some wise
traveller to alter the temperature so
he added boiling water to the mixture
of water, sugar, fruit juices and alco-
hol, producing thereby our modern
punch" The difference between
water ice and sherbet is one of tex
ture or body, the sherbet being thin
ner. Parfaits, biscuits and mousses
are whipped cream with or without
eggs. They are not stirred while freez-
ing In parfaits and biscuits the sugar
and water mixture is cooked until it
spins thread, and if eggs are used
the strip is slowly beaten into the
yolks or whites.
Water ices are fruit juices sweet
ened and frozen. When making an ice
cook the sugar to a strip before add
ing the fruit juice and water. The
quantity of sugar must depend upon
the fruit employed, whether it is sweet
or acid. In making mousse a little
gelatin is often added to give it body
when removed from the mold as it is
frozen without stirring. A table
spoonful of granulated gelatin is used
to a pint of cream. Mousse. parfaits
and biscuits are always nodded, usual
ly in individual forms.
Abroad the term ice is applied to
any frozen dessert, but in this country
it usually means water ices. Ice cream
is divided into two varieties-Phila-
delphia and Neapolitan. The ordinary
(Philadelphia) ice cream is made with
cream, sugar and f1avoring, and the
Neapolitan with custard of different de-
grees of richness. Both are stirred
while freezing. In making Philadel-
phia cream scald half the cream and
whip the remaining half. To freeze
the cream raw gives rough and
granny ice cream. For Neapolitan
cream boiled custard is the founda-
ton. Be careful to scald the milk, and
cook it with the yolks of the eggs first.
then add the whites, beaten stiff, and
cook again. When cool, add the cream.
beaten stiff, and the flavoring. A good
rule for custard is four eggs to one
pint of milk and one pint of cream.

WONDERFUL WESTINGHOUSE
Backed His Belief with Courage and
Fortune and Overceme ALI
Obstacles

George Westinghouse seems to -four
ish on opposition. When everybody
says it is impossible to do a thing, he
does it. They said the brake was i'm
possible, but for nearly 40 years it has
been controlling the movements of
trains in all countries, writes Arthur
Warren, in Success Magazine. They
| said that the alternating current was
impossible to use in commercial prac-
tice. But Westinghouse used it. Then
they said that it was a dangerous thing
TO have in a community, and it would
kill populations. They were the eX-
perts, And they tried to have laws
passed forbidding the use of this death
dealing current. In the files of the
North American Review of about ~
years ago may be found a wellwritter
and forcible article supporting these
ressimistic contentious and warning
the country against the impracticabil-
ity and danger of the alternating cur
rent The article was written by
Thomas A. Edison. Westinghouse
backed his belief with his courage, his
fortune, and his inventiveness; he en-
ployed experts of his own and brought
others from abroad, and before long
the alternating current was every
where in use for the transmission of
electrical power over long distances.
He made it practicable and conquered
the dangers.
How much temperament has to do
with health, or health with tempera
ment, and both with success, we do
not always know, but we can some
times guess. Mr.. Westinghouse is one
CT the most sanguine of men, and has
never had an illness. In that big
frame of his the red blood flows and
the human engines work full-powered
He has been written of as "a hundred
thousand horsepower man." No phrase
could better describe him. The roen
who are near him say that his capacity
for work is greater than that of any
zen of his subordinates, and he has
$4,000 men working in his industries.
