Chop Suey Best of All.

"I have tried them all in their na. tive haunts, and I like them," said tho traveller, according to the Baltimore Sun.
 "rried what?' asked the bystander. "Railroads?'
 "No; national dishes," answered the traveller. ''rhe hot tamale of the Mex ican, the goulash of the Hungarian, the chop suey of the Chink, are all known to me and many others.
 '"The best of them all is chop suey The hot tamale Is too hot and has very little nourishment to 1t, and goulash is too heavy. It tastes pretty good, but 1t is not food to recommend to a man with weak stomach. Chop suey, how ever, is appetizing, easily digested and very nourishing. It is the great contri- button of the orient to the occident in my opinion. It is made of rice, sprout ed beans, celery and chickens blood, all mixed together in the form of soup and nicely seasoned"

NEWSPAPER RECRUITS FOR RE.
 VISION.

Strange phases are those we read in the New York Tribune, which used to see visions of British gold and the ,n sidious hand of the Golden Club in every proposal for the modification of the protectice tariff system. "A tar if must be changed to meet changing conditions 'myopic standpatter, "Dingley rates out of touch with the present national needs, the time is near at hand for overhauling the tar if of 1S97'-in such manner are the most sacred traditions of high protec- tionism ruthlessly brushed aside. And that eminently stand-pat paper, the Springfield Union, long a mainstay of the Protective Tariff League, accord ing to the Washington Herald, now confesses it's belief that the Republi- can party ought to make a sensible readjustmemt of the tariff immediately after the next Presidential election
 The Tribune excuses it's attack on the Dingley tariff by the plea that
 
 the conditions of industry, trade and commerce. The present tariff has been an unqualified success, we are told, but it is out of date. That an unqualified success should ever be- come out of date is an unhappy ad- mission, for it raises the suspicion that there must be something wrong about our tariff system or there would not be so strong a demand for modi- tication of it. Why should anybody de- sire to change an unqualified sue cess,' if it were not that the suppos- ed success is in some very important respects a failure?
 Republican protectonists and their organs would never be found on the side of revision if they had not been compelled to take that side by the pressure of public opinion. They have not been the leaders of the revision movement.

Successful Crusade For Trees.

From a recent number of Forest ant Irrigation we learn how much a coun- ty superintendent of schools who thinks beyond the hackneyed routine of his duties may accomplish. says Col Hers Weekly. Mr. Kern began his crusade of tree planting in Winneba-o county, H., with the idea of making the surroundings of the country school house, which 100 often is bare plot shady and beautiful, as attractive is its associations to the primary pupil as the campus to the college stutle.I.. He has organized and lectured, With innumcrable slides of fine old cInS and oaks and young groves to holl the attention of his hearers. until the pop'l- lar movement which he created ha' spread from the schoolya ard to the roa side and from his own to other cour ties.

A Plant of All Work,

The fields as well as the broad roads of Ecuador are inclosed by adobe walls surmounted by the broad leayed Amer ican aloe. The aloe. sometimes called the century plant. is one of the most useful and important plants in the country. The Indians thatch their huts with its leaves. The leaves when tap ped yield sirup. They can also be used as soap and the spines as pins. The fiber is woven into sacks. and from it are made the coarse sandals worn by the common people. The tall flower stalks are used for beans and ladders. The flowers. boiled and soaked in vine. gar. make an agreeable pickle.-Nation. al Geographic Magazine.

SELF. ENGINEERING.
Perfect engines get hold of the
