ALL RELIGIONS IN LONDON.
Faithist Community Latest Addition
 to It's Queer Scots.

The Faithist community which has established a modest footing in Bal ham, and whose comprehensive gospel ranges from the creation of man to the glory and labors of the gods and goddesses of the Etherian heavens" is the latest addition to the long list of London's religious seets, which are now almost as many as the days Of the year. In London the Chinaman burns his incense stick in more than one joss-house in the east end, the Ma hometan has his mosque, the Malayan his temple, near St. Georges street east; the Parsees worship the sun in Bloomsbury the Mormons have mis- sion in Islington, and in many parts of the metropolis the Buddhists and Ancestor Worshipers perform their strange rites. Of Christian sects in London there are at least 300, includ- ing the Cokelers, the disciples of Will liam Sirgood, the WalWorth shoe- maker; the Peculiar People, who pre- fer prayer to physicians; the Sande- manians, the followers of Joanna Southcott, the prophetic serving maid; the Shakers and the Seventh Day Baptists.

THE LOAD OF THE LAZY.
This Man Worked Hard in His Own
 Particular Way.

One of the neighborhood loafers sat comfortably smoking his foul pipe, ac- cording to his daily custom, in the pre- scription room of drug store. He was soliloquizing aloud to the clerk. Here is sample of his sound, con- tented philosophy: 'Ill tell you what! A man is mighty miserable if he ain't got nothin to do, when he ain't work in at somethin'. 1 know tive tried both ways an I find that there ain't nothin' that makes man more miser- able than doin' nothin'. But, you know, there's two kinds of work; one of them is where feller goes to work at six in the mornin' an works with his hands till six at night. The other is where feller sits around an thinks. I ain't never happy unless I'm work in, but I don't believe in that first kind of work. I believe in thinkin' all day long, an that's harder than the other kind, I can tell you-you just try it if you don't believe me; a man is mighty miserable when he ain't WOrkin'" :"

MENU FOR A PICNIC
SIMPLE BUT SATISFYING OUT
 DOOR REPAST.
Clipped Beef with Cream Gravy Cook ed Over Campfire-GriddIe Cakes of Sour Milk Jumbles
 with Fruit.

A good idea for a picnic adjacent to buildings where things did not have to be carried far was recently carried out successfully, says writer in the Philadelphia Ledger. While the menu is not elaborate, everything being fresh and wholesome, the repast was voted a great success.
 Permission was given to build a fire in a grove. A large iron frypan was carried out, in which to make clipped beef with cream gravy. Coffee was made also, and ham was served cold. Good, fresh bread and sweet butter and Saratoga chips went with these, and the repast was completed by fresh berries and baked custards. It was all good farm fare, nothing ex- pensive, and yet every one said it was nice and pleasant little picnic, with out much preparation.
 Good sour milk or cream should be bread Because in the south it is hard to keep milk, servants from that sec tion do not know how to use it as well as the cooks from Ireland and Great Britain, who evolve so many nice breakfast and tea cakes from the oth- erwise waste product of the dairy. The old stone springhouses about Philadelphia are inviting with great pails of cream in the clear, cold water. One recently seen was within the very city, spot soon to be destroyed, and oh, the pity, to see the cool stone springhouse and the great stone house give way to modern, cheap brick rows, without grounds.
 Lemon and rose water together are especially nice for rich jumbles, to eat with fruit. For this purpose a fine plain white cake or lady cake is also suitable It is mistake to serve cho- colate cake and little cakes with chocolate icing, with everything of decided flavor This is right with blanc manages, cornstarch and vanilla ice cream, but out of place with high favored fruits.
 Black raspberries are now in mar ket. Many persons prefer the flavor to that of the red raspberries, but dis like them because the seeds are apt to be coarser. They are nice stewed and served very cold. Although this is not cherry year, provided you can spare some cherries, sour ones, the combination will be found nice. Like all stewed fruits, the juice is the best part. Fruit juice strained off and served on clipped ice is delicious at this or any other season. Use wine

In Praise of the Pie.

Laura Simmons tells in an article why good New Englanders should stick to pie, and calls attention to the fact that Emerson ate it three times by which New England has climbed to it's place of proud eminence. She questions whether any sensible per son was ever known to forage at the midnight hour for predigested cereals CT the innocuous prune. She does not believe that many New England ances- tors died of apoplexy, due to pie, but counsels all to go on pie-eating, despite the fact that the fiat has gone forth that it is vulgar to eat pie.

ilspcurai funner--and while ne IS a train man he has never trained for this particular kind of running. There was nothing to do however, but to cut loose and chaseit.
 A stern chase is usually long one, and the conductor sought to shorten it by whooping like a Choctaw Indian in order to attract the engineers at tention. But the latter official, with one warty hand grasping the throttle and the other clutching the bell cord, was squinting up the line for preda tory COWS, entirely oblivious of the fact that the unhappy faretaker was wheezing maledictions after him 100 rods away.
 And then all at once the sound of that warning yell reached him and he damned down the brakes. He jammed them down so fercely that the train stopped with an unexpectedness that caused the conductor to bang into the rear platform in a highly unpleasant manner.
 Ding blame you," the faretaker roared as he wildly danced about Couldn't you get your old train out of the way before I stepped on it?''
 Incidentally, it should be stated that the Delaware Valley railroad, a Penn sylvania corporation, is 12 miles long and it's management has not threat ened to reduce the speed of it's trains because of the new two-cent passen ger rate

Lemon Suqar.

Place the grated yellow peel from lemons in wide mouthed bottle and cover thickly with granulated sugar. Keep the bottle tightly corked The sugar becomes saturated with the oil from the peel and imparts delicious flavor. Still another way is to rub Jumps of sugar over the lemon rind until the oil cells are broken and the oil absorbed by the sugar. Place the Jumps of sugar in an airtight jar and when ready to use dissolve some of the sugar in whatever it is desired to flavor

Good Hints for "Cuts of Meat"

The so-called inferior cuts of meat are taken from those portions of the animal which are most constantly in motion during life, hence they are tough and stout of fiber. So far as nutrition goes, however, they are to be preferred to the very tender DOT tions (such as beef tenderIoin), which contain small percentage of body making material. It is necessary to give them an entirely different treat ment to make them palatable when served. Long cooking at a somewhat low heat is needed to give tenderness and impart flavor.

Does any sane person be- lieve that the opium in physicians prescription is less potent or less llke- ly to create a drug habit than the opl- um in a proprietary medicine? As q matter of fact, more optnm-dddtcts and cocain-1ends have been made througb the criminal cdrelessness of ionorant physicians than by any other medns.
 Unquestionably, there are a number of proprietary remedies on the market the sales of which should be prohibit ed, and no doubt they will be when the requirements of the Food and Drugs Act are rigidly enforced; many are frauds, pure and simple, and some are decidedly harmful. Of the aver age proprietary remedy, however, 1t may truthfully be said that it is dis tinctly better than the average physl- clans prescription; for not only is it's composition less secret, but it Is pre- pared for the proprietor by reputable manufacturing pharmacists In magnih- gently equipped laboratories and un- der the supervision and advice of able chemists, competent physicians and skillful pharmacists. It should not be considered strange, therefore, that so many physicians prefer to prescribe these ready-prepared proprietary rem edies rather than trust those of their own devising.

ARE PHYSICIANS PRESCRIPTIONS
 NOSTRUMS?

To one not qualified, and few lay men are, to discriminate intelligently between physicians prescriptions, pro- prietary medicines and nostrums, it may seem little short of crime to hint even that physicians prescrip- tions are in any manner related to nostrums; nevertheless, an impartial examination of all the facts in the case leads irresistibly to the conclu- sion that every medicinal preparation compounded and dispensed by physi- clan is, in the strict sense of the word, a nostrum, and that the average, ready-prepared proprietary remedy is superior to the average specially-pre- pared physicians prescription.
 What is a nostrum? According to the Standard Dictionary nostrum is "a medicine the composition of which is kept a secret" Now, when a physi- clan compounds and dispenses with his own hands a remedy for the treat ment of disease-and it is authorita- lively stated that probably 50 per cent. of all physicians prescriptions in this country are so dispensed-the names and quantities of the ingre- dients which constitute the remedy are not made known to the patient. Hence, since it's composition is kept secret by the physician, the remedy or prescription is unquestionably, in the true meaning of the word, Simon pure nostrum. Furthermore, the pre- scription compounded by the average physician is more than likely to be perfect jumble-replete with thera- peutic physiologic and chemical in- compatibilities and bearing all the ear marks of pharmaceutical incompe tency; for it is now generally admitted that unless physician has made a special study of pharmacy and passed some time in drug store for the pur- pose of gaining a practical knowledge of modern pharmaceutical methods, he is not fitted to compound remedies for his patients. Moreover, a physi- elan who compounds his own prescrip- tions not only deprives the pharmacist of his just emoluments, but he endan- gers the lives of patients; for it is only by the detection and elimination of errors in prescriptions by clever, competent prescriptionists that the safety of the public can be effectually shielded from the criminal blunders of ignorant physicians.
 Nor can it be said that the average physician is any more competent to formulate a prescription than he is to compound it. When memorized or di- rectly copied from book of '.favorite prescriptions by famous physicians" or from some textbook or medical journal, the prescription may be all that it should be. It is only when the physician is required to originate formula on the spur of the moment that his incompetency is distinctly evi- dent. Seemingly, however, the physi- clans of the United States are little ,

ana 1udIIldCy, EOluOul Su, idliiChllLS in the Medical Magazine the passing of the prescription and bemoaning the fact that seldom does he find a final man" able to devise a prescription even i'll good contracted Latin"
 And what, it may be asked, is the status of the written prescription-the prescription that is compounded and dispensed by the pharmacist-is it, too, a nostrum? It may be contended that the patient, with the written formula in his possession, may learn the character of the remedy pre- scrbed So, possibly, he might if he understood Latin and were physician or pharmacist but as he usually pos sesses no professional training and cannot read Latin, the prescription is practically dead secret to him. Furthermore, the average prescription is so badly written and so greatly abbreviated that even the pharmacist, skilled as -e usually is in deciphering medical hieroglyphs, is constantly obliged to interview prescribers to 1 find out what actually has been pre- scribed. It may also be contended, that inasmuch as the formula is known to both physician and pharmacist the prescription cannot therefore be se- cret. But with equal truth it might be
 contended that the formula of any so- called nostrum is not secret since it l is known to both proprietor and manu- | facturer; for it must not be forgotten
 that. according to reliable authority,
 95 per cent. of the proprietors of so-
 called patent medicines prepared in
 this country have their remedies made
 for them by large, reputable manufac-
 turing pharmacists. But even should
 a patient be able to recognize the
 names of the ingredients mentioned in
 a formula he would only know half
 the story. It is seldom, for instance,
 that alcohol is specifically, mentioned
 in a prescription, for it is usually
 masked in the form of tinctureS and
 fluid extracts, as are a great man-
 other substances. It is evident, there
 fore, that the ordinary formulated pre-
 scription is, to the average patient, lit
 tie less than a secret remedy or nos
 trum.
 } On the other hand, the formulae of nearly all the proprietary medicines that are exploited exclusively to the medical profession as well as those of large percentage of the proprie. tary remedies that are advertised to the public (the so-called patent medi cines) are published in full. Under the Food and Drugs Act, every medi cinal preparation entering interstate
 commerce is now required to have the
 proportion or quantity of alcohol
 opium, cocain and other habit-form
 ing or harmful ingredients which ii may contain plainly printed on the : label As physicians prescriptions : seldom or never enter interstate com merce they are practically exempt un der the law.
