Dangers of the Revenue Service.

Dangers of the Revenue Service
The officers of the internal revenue
service make little fuss over their ac-
complishments. The world scarcely
hears of them unless they have had
desperate hand to hand fight with
mountain desperadoes which has re-
suited in the death of several of their
number. But day after day and night
after night they go about their work
calmly, quietly, In constant danger of
death from a shot from some ambush
ed moonshiner or blockader. Yet these
men are an absolute necessity for the
safeguarding of the country's interests,
and they deserve much credit for their
hard task, scarcely appreciated by the
great mass of the people.-David A,

Some Ways of Using Carrots.

The value of the carrot in the winter
as food is not always appreciated. 1t
is nutritious and health-giving vegeta'
BILE, and said to be very improving to the
complexion.
The woman who mistook her physi.
clans advice about her daughters health
and fed her carrots, instead of claret, did
not blunder 80 much as the story would
make us believe. The girl regained hei
health, although the mothers ingenuity
in devising appetizing ways of serving
the vegetable was taxed to the utmost
If more pains were taken in preparing
the carrot for the table, it might become
more popular. In the majority of homes
it appears only as garnish for boiled
dinner or in the soup.
The following ways of cooking the
carrot are all good, for have tested
them in the good old-fashioned method
of "the proof of the pudding is in the
eating of it,"
When a pot-roast of beef is about hall
done, place carrots, cut in half length
wise, in the kettle and let simmer anC
brown.
Carrots part !y boiled and then roasted
with leg of mutton are delicious.
Carrots boiled and picked in the same
way as beets make good relish.
Cold-boiled carrots can be fried in but
ter the same as potatoes.
To cream carrots. scrape and slice
thin, boil until tender, drain and add
small lump of butter rubbed in flour
cream or milk to cover, pepper and salt
and let come to boil. Serve as sid'
dish.
For carrot pudding use one pound
each of -four, suet, grated carrots, brown
sugar, raisins and currants, and fou'
ounces of lemon peel. Mix with milk
tie in pudding-bag, boil three hours ano
serve with hard sauce.

"happy Months"


Happy months" is the name applied
to the little mince pies made at Christ
mas time throughout England, and serv-
ed to any guests who may call at the
house during the holidays.
The saying is, that, for every one of
these tiny pies one eats, happy month
will come during the year,-only the
pies must be given to the one who eats
them.
When one calls at q house, the little
pies are brought forth with cup OF
tea, and, however we'll satisfied one may
already be, as regards ones appetite, OF
how many of these "happy month" pies
he has already eaten, it is considered
marked breach of etiquette to refuse the
little pie,-although one is allowed to
take it home and eat it later. This,
however, is not very often done; for who
would refuse to insure the coming OF
happy month by refusing to overtax the
stomach for just one more little piep
In some parts of England, these little
pies are literally made by the dozen, Sc

French Sponge Cakes.

These little cakes differ from the
ordinary sponge cake in being twice
baked, and are therefore much more
easily digested. They are delicious
when served with afternoon tea. They
are made az follows: Three eggs, the
grated rind of one lemon, one half cup
of granulated sugar, three-fifths cup of
pastry -four, one-eighth teaspoon OF salt.
Beat the egg yolks until light, adding
gradually the sugar. Stir briskly for
five minutes. Add the grated lemon
rind. and the -four which has been mixsd
with the salt and sifted three times.
Carefully fold in the egg whites, beaten
very stiff. Pour the dough into an
oblong fat tin, and bake it in an oven
hot enough to burn a piece of white pa
paper brown in five minutes. Bake the
cake for twenty-five minutes. When
qni,e cold, cut the cake into narrow
strips with sharp knife. Arrange the
strips in fiat tins. Sprinkle each piece
with powdered sugar and brown in a
quick oven, turning the strips from time
to time until the four sides are golden
brown

Coloring Electric Lamp Globes.

Very often users of electricity desire
co'ored globes for one reason or another
usually for decorative purposes. If thu
use is to be permanent, the globes can
of course, be bought in almost any de
sired shade; but, If intended for more Oh
less temporary use, as for christina
decorations, they may be obtained witt
but little trouble and less expense.
Take little white shellac and thin il
down with alcohol-very thin, so that il
will run evenly. Now dip into it al
ordinary glass globe, which should ther
be hung up by string to dry. Thi.
gives an almost perfect imitation Of
frosted glass, and beautiful white light
much better for the eyes than an ordi
nary clear-glass globe.
If colOred light is desired-green
red or blue-get package of egg dye o.
the desired color. This dye should bt
dissolved in wood alcohol and mixed
with the shellac Any desired tint car
be secured if it is remembered that the
more dye and the less shellac used the
deeper will be the tone.
These colors, when so applied, are
practically permanent; but in case it il
desired to have the globes clear, or tt
change the color, the dye and shellat
may be readily removed with wood
alcohol.

enforcement of the Law

A few years ago there was loud com.
plant that the law could not be in
voked against wealthy offenders. There
is no such complaint now. The course
of the department Of justice during the
last few years has been such as to make
ii evident that no man stands above
the law, that 10 corporation Is so veal
thy that it cannot be held to account.
But the laws themselves need strength
eninc. They should be made more def
mite. so that no honest man can be led
to break them and so that
the real wrOngdOer can be readily pun
lshed. Moreover, there must be the
public opinion back Of the laws or the
laws themselves will be Of no avail.
The two great evils in the execution Of
our criminal laws today are senti-
and technicality.
Regarding Injunctions
Instances of abuse in the granting
Of injunctIons in labor disputes con-
tinue to occur. and the resentment in
the minds Of those who feel that their
rights are being invaded and their lib
erty of action and speech unwar-
restrained continues likewise
to grow. l earnestly commend to the
attention Of the congress this matter,
so that some way may be devised
which will limit the abuse of injunc-
tons and protect those rights which
from time to time it unwarrantably in
vades.
The president urges the passage Of
model employers liability act for the
District Of Columbia and the territories
to encourage corporations to treat in
|ured wageworkers better. He en-
endorses the eight-h0ur day
ind urges the states to fight the child
Ind woman labor evil.

hall not contribute to presidential or
rational campaigns and, furthermore,
o provide for the publication Of both

md legitimate expenses Of each of the

ion ample enough to meet the neces-

I.nsuaee ana the Press.

One Of the most interesting and i'm
portant things said by Ambassador
Whitelaw Reid at dinner OF the News
paper Press Fund in London related to
the part newspapers play In debasiDg
language and what they might do to
maintain 1t in Its purity. He had al
ready alluded to the favor with which
American slang has been received In
England, and went on to say:
PERHAPS, without being accused OF
American boastfulness, may say some
American ideas of newspapers seem
travelling across the Atlantic. In view
of that, all am going to do is to depre-
cate English support for the constant,
almost incredible, corruption Of the
English language which is going on In
our colleges as in our streets, and which
some newspapers are raking the country
for, to pour out every morning over the
whole helpless land. This degradation
of our common language would be less
hreatening-would tend less to limit the
vocabulary of our young people to only
few hundred words and many OF them
not words at all-if only you in England
had little cordial admiration for Ameri-
can slang. We are all the while talking
of cooperation in generous efforts by
men OF good will on either side to pro.
mote purposes which all English speak,
ing people should have at heart. Why
might we not form an international al.
lance for the preservation of tho Eng.
lish language?
That suggestion of the vocabulary OF
many young people being limited to a
few hundred words, land many OF them
not words at ALL" is very little exaggerat.
ed. 1t describes the actual practice, II
not the extent of knowledge, Of a large
part of the community. And the com
mon use of this bastard language tends
to loose thinking and diminiShes the
power of clear statement in any serious
matter. 1t is a meagre and worthless
foreign tongue, acquired easily only
because there is 30 little of it, having nc
merit except that it expresses a few
things pungently-for those who know
the dialect.
All this applies of course only to the
use of slang as an habitual vehicle o.
conversation. It is equally true that the
slang which is some day to become 8
part of the language or has in itsel
something distinctly humorous is prop
erly to be used by any one who can grasE
its spirit and can be trusted to step out
side the conventional way at the right
time. There are not too many of them
but in their hands it is an effective too
to accomplish some results. 1t is thu
artificial slang and the habit of ignoring
English in favor of jargon that cause
mischief. The mere habitual user o
slang gradually forgets the value o
English, and that is too fine tool to b
thrown away or be neglected until par
of such skill as had been acquired in
has been lost.-HartfOrd Times.
