why, Aunt Filura, isn't that an un-

caller with Il calculating glance at the
stove on her passage across the kitchen.
"If you're just looking at the kittle,
it does seem plumb siZablc," said Aunt

FOrElnlin for Fruits.

Some important experiments on the
preservation Of ripe fruits by means of
fOrmalin have recently been carried out
at the Jodrall laboratory, Kew, says the
London Globe. If the fruit is one which
IS eaten without peeling, as the straw
berry or raspberry, it is, first of all,
immersed for ten minutes in cold wa
ter containing 3 per cent of commercial
fOrmaiin. 1t is then taken out, and
allowed to remain five minutes in cold
water. If the fruit is one of which the
skin or rind is not eaten, the htter
treatment is omitted. 1t was found
that dams0ns thus treated kept nine
days, Victoria plums five days, black
currants five days and red currants
four days longer than fruit not 50
treated.
Pittcd or slightly diseased apples
thus treated were found to keep sev-
eral wees longer. 1t is pointed out
that the spelling Of ripe fruit is often
due to tie various bacteria and fer
mentS occurring on their surfaces. The
development of these is prevented by
the formalin. It is suggested that the
use Of formalin may render it poSsihir
to bring certain pcrshuble ripe fruits
from distant countries.

In touching upon the railroads the
President declared: The national gov
ernment should exercise over them a su-
perviSion and control similar to that
which it now exercises over national
banks. We can do this only by proceed
ing farther along the line marked out by
recent national legislation"
Concerning the matter of national con-
troll as it might conflict with the rights of
the States Mr.. Roosevelt said:
1T seems to me that such questions as
national sovereignty and States rights
need to be treated not empirically or aca-
demically, but from the standpoint of the
interests of the people as whole. Ma
tiOnal sovereignty is to be upheld in so
far as it means the sovereignty of the
people used for the real and ultimate good
of the people; and States rights are to be
upheld in so far as they mean the peoples
rights. Especially is this true in de" ling
with the relations of the people as whole
to the great corporations which are the
distinguishing feature of modern business
conditions"
Mr.. Roosevelt said word concerning
what might be accomplished in time in
the way of making easier the path of Use
full combinations, but he said fatty that
the day could not come before there was
far more thorough control by the national
government. On this matter his words
were:
ultimately, and | hope with reason
able speed, the national government must
supervisory and regulatory power Of the
government, also permit such useful com
binations as are made with absolute open
ness and as the representatives, of the gov
ernment may previously approve. But it
will not be possible to Permit such COM
biRations save as the second stage in a
course of proceedings of which the first
stage must be the exercise Of far more
complete control by the national govern
nent."
