Put one pound Of granulated sugar
and one-half pint Of water in sauce
pan over the fire. Stir until the sugar
is all dissolved, then let the syrup
come to boil. Drop in gently one
quart of white cherries. pitted, and let
simmer fifteen minutes. Strain care
fully, and when the syrup Is cold add
one quart OF sweet cream and freeze.
When 1t gets rather thick remove the
dasher, beat we'll with wooden pad
die, and stir in the fruit. Pack and let
stand three or four hours to ripen.
Another very nice way to serve cherry
ice cream is to stone and crush the
cherries, and add sugar to make them
sweet. Chill on ice. and put a spoon
full of the crushed fruit in small glass
es, and heap over vanilla ice cream.
Raspberry, peach. apricot and banana
ice creams can be maded and served
with the same directions as straw
berry Or cherry ice creams.

Wood alcohol is a rank poison, and
the strong movement against its use,i
even for legitimate purposes. is worthy
Of encouragement. 1t Is we'll known
that the fumes Of wood alcohol Or
methylated spirits are dangerous in ex-
ternal contact with the eye. A distin-
guished man of science, who has done
much work in the interests of the blind,
has given repeated warnings against
its use in spirit lamps, especially I'M
small crowded rooms where there are,
children. The spirit lamp is especial
~ popular in fats that have no kitch-
ems. Recently painter In Lynn, Mass,
was stricken with blindness, which oc-
ulists attributed to the use of shellacs
and stains cut with wood alcohol. A
local painters union passed resolu-
ton not to use materials which con-
tanned the poison. Shellac cut with
grain alcohol is better than that which
contains methyl, but the internal rev.
enue law encourages the use Of the In
ferior article, for wood alcohol is not
taxed. whereas grain alcohol Is taxed
heavily, even that which has been de-
naturallzed and made impossible to
drink.

At last the problem of graft has
been solved. All that Is needed Is
music. Shakespeare knew that the
unmusical man was not to be trusted.
but more recent teacher has dis
covered that love for music may be
soil and that the result will be the
elimination OF graft and all material
evils. If such results have not al
ready been attained it is because music
has not been properly taught. If
steel manufacturers are not rendered
more spiritual by the melodies that
burst from the lips Of shapely chorus
girls, 1t Is because the music is bad,
or else because their souls have not
been trained to feel the regenerating
and severe serenity Of gypsies and
other musical races is proof Of the
inner evolution of the higher life
which always accompanies n love for
music. The enthusiastic music teach
er does not give the details Of the ap-
plicatiOn Of his theory. The impOr-
lance of the matter demands imme-
diate action from Congress or the legis-
lature. A commission should be ap-
pointed to draw up project Of law.
The commission should have the
power to compel the attendance Of
witnesses, and first OF all should Sc
cure from the professor list Of the
tunes which he considers most con-
ducive to the higher life. Then from
the confessions of eminent men and
inmates Of the jalls additions can be
made to the list and at the same time
a new list prepared Of tunes which
have power for evil. No man shall
be eligible to public office unless he
gives unmistakable signs Of being af-
fected by the strains Of the approved
airs, and 1t shall be considered i'm
pOrtant evidence In criminal trial
whether the defendant is fond Of music
or not. A convicted CRATER shall be
sentenced to take music lessons and
all his accomplices shall be compelled
to listen to his practicing. The I'M
seltshness and freedom from jealousy
which is characteristic of musical ar
lists Is now accounted for. All that
Is needed is SO to diffuse musical cul-
ture that the golden age will return
spontaneously. The composer who
sighed for the privilege of making his
country's songs erred In leaving to
others the power of making her laws.
He should have said: Let me teach
the children music, and there will be
no need of laws"

A clever smuggling trick has been
played OH a customs officer on the
Russo German frontier. An innocent
looking peasant reported to the officer
plot for getting large number Of
pigs across the frontiey. The method,
he said. would be to drive across at
intervals Of half an hour three, six,
twelve and two hundred pigs, the
smugglers arguing that If the first
three lots could be sent over there
would be no trouble with the two hun
dred.
The officer was naturally on the
alert. In accordance with the peas
ants statement, three pigs were driven
over, then six, followed by twelve.
All were allowed to pass, and prepara-
lions were made to receive the two
hundred. But no more pigs appeared.
and the twenty-one animals admitted
had in the meantime been lodged In
safety.

The Baptist Theological Faculties

The Baptist Theological Faculties
Union Is wrestling with the fact that.
there is great falling Off in the num-
Der Of theological students in the Bap-l
fist seminaries. just as there is in the
others. The members express the opln-
ion that it is because young men can.
make more money in secular pursuits,
and they recommend that extra induce.
ments be offered to them in order tol
attract them to the ministry. This
makes bad impression. TO worldly
man it would seem that the ministry
was to be congratulated on the loss of
such material. We sincerely hope that
the students who still remain in the
seminaries are not actuated by the
same motive.

airy elements, both Christi ans and

lcctual regeneration Of a large portion
Of the Turkish people, who caught the
reform idea half a century ago and
never dropped it. For an organized

time for education and time to as

That the time has now come this pa
triotic Turk argues as follows:

Pancaldi, the marine school Of Haiku. the
agricultural school of Halkali, the med

ideas. Under the influence of all these
