Lincoln Eminently Fair.

Gen. Taylor was triumphantly elect
ed. and it became Lincoln's duty, as
whig member of congress from 1lli-
nois, to recommend certain persons to
fill government Offices in that state,
saws Helen Nicolay in st. Nicholas.
He did this after he returned to
Springfield, for his term in congress
ended on March 4, 1849, the day that
Gen. Taylor became president. The
letters that he sent to Washington
when forwarding the papers and appli'
cations of people who wished appoint
ment were both characteristic and
amusing; for in his desire not to mis-
lead or to do injustice to any man,
they were very apt to say more in
favor of the men he did not wish to
see appointed than in recommends
ton of his own particular candidates.
This absolute and impartial fairness
to friend and foe alike was one Of his
strongest traits, governing every &C.
tion of his life. II 1t had not been for
this, he might possibly have enjoyed
another term in congress, Tor there
aad been talk of reeiecting him. In
spite Of his confession TO Speed that

DAILY HELPS.

A pinch of salt improves cakes, can
dies and almost everything that is
cooked.
Salt on the fingers when cleaning
meat, fowls and fish will prevent the
hands from slipping.
Starch made with soapy water pre-
vents the irons from sticking and
gives better gloss to the linen.
If teaspoonful of vinegar is added
to the water in which fish is to be
washed most delicious flavor will
be impaired to it.
Cold baked potatoes, sliced thin,
then put in q baking dish with salt,
pepper, butter and milk, make better
scallop than raw potatoes.
Food articles that are damp should
never be left in ordinary paper. Paper
is made OF wood pulp, rags, glue, lime.
and similar substances intermixed
with chemicals. When damp, it
should not be allowed to come in
contact with things that are to be
eaten.
The small stone crooks used by
many for holding butter should al
ways be we'll washed and freshened
before being refilled. The best way
to freshen them is, after washing, to
fill them with boiling ammonia or
borax water, allowing teaspoonful
of ammonia to a quart of water. Let
the water remain all day and then
fill the crock with sweet milk and let
1t stand over night.

tnere was a picturesque appearance
ABOUT his figure that redeemed it from
tne commonplace. Honesty, intelli-
