woAKrD FOR FIFTY CENTS A WEEK

ALEXANDRIA, Va. Nov. sc.
c. Carlin. the Democratic NOM
inee to succeed the late Congress-
man John f. Rixey, is confident
of defeating his Republican OPP
ponent in to-day's election and
all Democrats in the district
maintain a similar feeling.
Charles &. Carlin was born in
Alexandria April 8, 1866; his
parents were the. late William II.
and Frances L, CarIin. His
father was Confederate soldier
and died in 1870 from the effects
of exposure in the army of the
Lost Cause" leaving a widow
and four children.
At the early age of ten young
Carlin had to begin to make his
way in life and assist his mother
and sisters. as there was no pen
sion for the soldiers Of ths Con-
feoeracy. He began life as an
err&nd boy in a china store at the
munificent salary of so cents a
week.
While engaged in this work he
entered the public schools, where
he received the major portion Of
his education, afterward attend
ing for a short time the Alex
andria Academy, of which Will
liam H. Greenwich was principal
His usefulness to the telephone
company was such that by the
time he reached sixteen years Of
age, he was taken by Superin-
tendent w. 7. Gentry, with him
to Atlanta. Ga. 1t was through
Mr.. GentrY's agency that he was
first appointed in the telephone
exchange in Alexandria. He was
afterward made manager of the
Rome, Ga. telephone exchange.
He saved sufficient money from
his salary to justify him in re-
turning to Alexandria in 1885,
when he began the study of law at
the National Law University in
Washington, u. c., from which
school he graduated with honors.
While studying law he acted as
Deputy Treasurer of the city of
Alexandria, in the Office of NJ. Is.
Harlow. who was at that time
Treasurer. The late Judge Chas
Z. Stuart apI ointed him Com
missioner of Accounts of the Cor
poratiOn Court.
When IS years old he married
Miss Lillian Broders, daughter Of
the late Joseph Broders. one Of
the most prominent business
men of the city of Alexandra.
In 1892 he was elected a mem
Der Of the Board of Aldermen from
the Third Ward of the city, and
while Serving in that capacity was
appointed by President Cleveland
Posi- master of the city.

TUESDAYS election should be
most gratifying to Democrats gen.
orally. The most notable victory,
p srhaps. was in Cleveland
where Tom Johnson overwhelm-
ingly defeated for Mayor, Con-
.Tessinan~ Theodore Burton, who
ran upon the advice of President
Roosevelt. Hardly less auspic-
ious, however, were the large
gains and distinct victories in New
York, Maryland and Rhode
Island. Old Kentucky was the
Only backsiider.
We hope that these elections
will prove a forerunner Of a
Democratic victory next year and
that Mr.. Bryan will yet thrive
over the enemies of the people
an4 guide for foNr years the des-
any o. the nation. If the Demo-
crats will get together upon a
platform of tariff for revenue
e77Ittys anti Capitalization, anti
.ruSt and street corporate con-
troll, with Mr.. Bryan to lead the
fight, we teel that we will be in
position to make our Republican
friends sit mp and take more than
passing notice.

PREPARATION FOR wIFEHooD.

That the knowledge of cooking and
housekeeping is as necessary In the
preparation for wifehood as is other es-
sential knowledge in the preparation
for business occupations is the opinion
of the Rev. A. II. Harnly, of Chicago,
who in a recent sermon said:
For the temporary occupation SO
MANY take up while awaiting a suita-
BILE opening they prepare Well enough
They take a course in stenography or
whatever they decide upon as tenn

WHY OYSTERS CAUSE TYPHOID

Investigation has shown that oysters
eaten raw frequently cause typhoid.
Not the thin, grayish oysters, fresh
from the briny deep, but those which,
in consequence of the consumers de-
mand that the biyalye be good to his
sight as well as to his perverted taste.
are subjected to a bleaching process
which makes them plump as We'll.
To secure this appearance the salt
water product is placed in fresh water,
frequently in fresh-water streams. This
bleaches them, and owing to the fact
that nowadays few fresh-water streams
are pure, that the oyster absorbs SO
much water that it appears plump
and that its digestive functions are re-
tarded by the unnatural conditions. any
bacilli in the water absorbed rapidly
multiply, thus injecting the oyster.
This infected food, often shipped long
distances, becomes a menace to the
health of whole communities. ThlS
practise of bleaching and fattening the
oyster certainly should be discouraged
by epicureans and consumers In gem

that this dish is not too hot AS 1t
melts he applies plenty of elbow grease
TO the process of stirring, and he is
particular to stir only in one direction
While the cheese is melting the yolk
of one egg is beaten until it is as light
as possible. and to it are added plenty
of red pepper and a goodly pinch or
salt. Then at the right moment, when
the cheese has attained the proper con-
sistence. and with the first person still
stirring persistently, another person
must take the cup holding the egg and
seasoning in one hand and glass of

tents of each receptacle have become

This accomplished, the rabbit is ready
TO serve. for no other condiments are
added until after the melted cheese
mixture has been poured over the
toasted bread, when a combination
sauce composed of English mustard
and Worcestershire may be used IL
desired.
An entirely different process is that
of Charles P. Fleming OF Blossom
Heath fame, and as his method of pro-
cedure is strenuously upheld by many
of New York's incest epicures. 1t would
be a daring critic who would presume
TO question the wisdom of his ways
Thus. instead of first melting ms
cheese. Mr.. Jennings preliminary step
is to heat some stale beer or ale THOR
oughly, and when it has come to
boil he adds, little by little. or no raster
than il can melt, the rich, creamy dairy
cheese which has previously been graf
ed for that purpose. During the time
that the cheese and beer are mlnsiing
he stirs the mixture constantly, ana
when the process of cooking is almost
completed he adds little salt, spoon
full of dry English mustard, lump OF
butter, little Worcestershire ana the
necessary quantity of paprika.

HOW TO DETECT IMPURE MILK.

when milk is skinned or WaIered'
the fluid is of a thin blush color 10
cover this defect, which should at once
reveal its inferior quality. coioring is
resorted to by the unprincipled dairy
man. This may be known by letting
the milk or cream stand in clear
glass, say twelve hours, and then no
ticing the watery and creamy layers.
If the lower layer be of a yellow color.
of the same shade as the cream, arti-
fetal coloring is indicated Cream low.
or deficient in butter fat, may be DE-
tected in a similar way. If an aniline
dye has been employed to give the milk
or cream an apparent richness, little
vinegar added to the heated cream or
milk produces in the curd distinct
orange color. If caramel or annato
have been used, the curd viii have a
brownish color. The curd of pure mix
or cream should be nearly white.
.'Or if the cream or milk be kept III
an open vessel for 4s hours and re-
mains sweet at the end of that time
it is almost sure to contain a pre-
sentative.

Where very late dinner is not the
rule the old fashion of serving cup of
delicious tea to each guest as he or she
descends from the dressing room is still
to be commended. A small room for
the serving of light refreshments
throughout the evening should be
daintily arranged. A small table or
number of them should be covered with
snowy damask, or if the polished ma
hogany is preferred use lace doiifes on
which to stand the dishes. Silver or
crystal dishes of delicious bonbons
with plenty of cold drinks are all that
need be served for an informal occa-
sion such as the menus given above
would be served at, but frozen sweets,
sherbets, frappes. creams, etcetera, are
always a pleasing addition to these
'.in-between'' refreshments.
