An exchange says that the best and
only thoroughly successful curfew or
dinance is the one passed by the parents
of the boys and girls. Itneeds nothing
but short executive session without
debate to get one passed that will keep
fifteen year old youths and misses from
parading the streets at unseemly hours.
With such an ordinance in force in
every home the danger of increasing
the number of wayward girls and reck-
less boys would be reduced far more
than could be expected from them.

COOKERY BY GAS FIRE
EXHIBIT OF APPLIANCES FOR
CULINARY DEPARTMENT.
Dealers Display a Model of All Utili-
ties-Their Usefulness
illustrated.

II Is related that an old farmer once as
serted that his wife knew how to fry pork
steak, and that she was an artist in other
branches of cookery as well. AS pork
forms the piece de resistance OF many
country menus. no one doubted the far
mer's assertion but a tidy little city wo-
man. She maintained that the wife of
the agricuIturist did not know how to fry
porksteak. Procuring a steak she cooked
it over a gas range and then brought it
steaming hot and fragrant with a most
savory odor to the venerable man. He
partook of it and then exclaimed:
This amt porksteak; it's some of them
new tangled city dishes. Why, it tastes
better nor 'frickaseed' turkey or chicken
salad
But It was porksteak just the same.
only it had been daintily and properly
cooked and was genuine revelation to
the farmer who had been eating the prod
uct of his big fireplace and his good wifes
cookery for many years. When ne re-
turned to his country home he carried
with him recipe headed. How to Cook
Porksteak."
This experience Is similar, no doubt, to
that of many of the housewives and cooks
of this city who attended the exhibit of
the Washington gas appliance demonstra-
ton last night at lab New York avenue
northwest The possibilities of gas and
gas appliances were interestingly Illus
trated by those in charge of the affair.
It was stated that the exhibit was ar
purpose of showing Washingtoniaus and
others living in this section the various
improvements in gas appliances for cook
ing, heating and lighting.

The Illinois Central.
stands

The Illinois Central's petition for ter minal privileges presented to the Board of Aldermen last night will, when granted, practically complete the plans of that company for building into this city. What it asks for seems wholly reasonable, and it is needful, too in the making of a terminal that will accom- modate shippers who may patronize that important system.
 The coming in of the Illinois Central will be among the most far-reaching local events of the new year. The city and all the rest of the district bids this splenold system welcome of the warmest possible sort.
 The Illinois Central once here, will prove itself a strenuous rival in ex- tensions and great improvements of the large lines already in Birmingham. It is built on developing lines, and wherever it has entered district it has invariably improved all opportunl- ties worth improving. That 1t will do so here is not to be doubted.
