Real Forbidden Fruit.

In some countries there grows Q
kind Of fruit belonging to the shad
dock family and which Is commonly
called forbidden fruit" 1t is similar
to grape fruit, but IS larger and the in.
side is somewhat coarser than the de-
licious acid delicacy of which we are
80 fond. The name forbidden fruit
was given on account of three dark
brown stains, like finger marks, which
invariably show on this variety of the
shaddcck The stains are close to-
gether on one side and are believed to
be the marks Of Ewes fingers left as
a brand on the apple whose eating
caused so much trouble in the world
Forbidden fruit is much liked by PEG.
Pile who are able to get 1t fresh, but
80 far it has not been shipped abroad
as extensively as it's cousin, the grape
fruit and shaddock.

Delivered the Goods,

The late Senator M. S. Quay, Of
Pennsylvania, kept all the letters his
constituents wrote to him asking for
favors, says the Saturday Evening
Post. He had stacks of them when
his last great fight for the senate came
along Then he sorted out the letters,
eliminating those from people who
were dead and on the back of each
letter wrote; Dear John or Bill:
Do you remember when you wrote me
this letter and do you remember that
I did what you asked? l want your
help now in my fight for the senate
Can l have it," The politicians in
Pennsylvania say those letters mailed
to the original senders with Quays re-
quest on the backs Of them, had as
much as any one thing to do with
4uay's winning his fight.

One Of these is moral obligation and

The other is: Will it pay? and to that

Neither of these questions should be

not sentimental nonsense, and black

COOKING HINTS BY EXPERTS.
Two Famous Cooks give Valuable
Information about Corn Starch
as Cooking Helm
as a Cooking Help.

Comparatively few housewives realize
how great is the virtue of corn starch as
help in cooking and baking. Alice
Cary Waterman and Janet M. Hill, the
famous culinary experts, have made a
special study of this phase of cookery,
with results that are not only interesting
but surprising,
As is we'll known, quality in corn
starch is an all.important consideration,
and the two cooks found Kingsford's
Oswego Corn Starch to be the best for
every purpose. For example, the use of
this corn starch in bread results in a fine
grain aud delicious flavor, with crust
unusually tender The experts found also
that it greatly improves the consistency
of soups, gravies and sauces, gives jel-
lies pleasing firmness for moulding,
makes pastries more delicate, and SO on
through many helpful uses.
With a view to giving housewives
everywhere the full benefit Of this in
vestigation, the National Starch Compa
ny, successors to the old firm of 7. Kings
ford q Son, Oswego, N. Y, have EN-
bodied the results in book form, which
they are now distributing gratuitously
among applicants.
This book is unique in every respect,
containing not only great many
original receipts but carefully arrang'
ed list of helpful cooking hints and
suggestions. There is little wonder that
the demand for the book is enormous,
for every woman interested in good
cooking wants copy.

The reason why there is at present so
much popular feeling against corpora

manage those institutions make use OF
public franchises, which are really MOTH

vert their license to serve into power
to taxa power which none but the
government should possess.

Would Forfeit st. p, M. &
M Railroad Charte-.
FAILED OPAY REQUIRED TAX
iT IS ALLEGED THAT BY REASON
or THE STOCK OWNED BY THE
GREAT NORTHERN IN suBsl-
DIARY COMPANIES 1T HAS BEEN
FLOATING WATERED STOCK.

st. Paul, Jan. 25.--Attorney General
Yoang to-day asked the-supresne @ens4
for a writ Of mandamus to compel the
st. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Rail-
road Co. to show cause why its charter
should not be forfeited. The Great
Northern is joined in the issue which
practically includes all the companies
merged under the name of the Great
Northern Railway Co as owner of the
Manitoba Railway Co. stock.
In 1879 when the Minnesota and Pa
cific Co became bankrupt its stock and
charter passed by purchase to the Man
itoba company. Under this charter the
Manitoba company has been paying
only per cent gross earnings tax,
claiming exemption from the per cent
tax by reason of its territorial charter.
Attorney General Young says that
the Great Northern refuses to pay
per cent because of the alleged rights
conferred by this charter, and claims
that as the Manitoba company does not
now exist its charter should be for
feited.
The attorney general also goes into
the question of the stock owned by the
Great Northern in It's subsidiary COM
panies and claims it is thereby enabled
to float a large quantity of watered
stock which he says the public pays
for.
He wants to know how much of this
stock Is issued which appears to be
fictitious and why the Great Northern
stockholders create subsidiary compan-
les to build extensions and issue stock
without the state supervision.

Rumored That Jamaica's
Governor Has Resigned.
LYSOLUTIONOF DIFFICULTY
lNTIMATED IN GOVERNMENT
OFFICES THAT 1T WOULD BE
IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM TO CON-
TlNUE IN OFFICE BECAUSE OF
THE KINGSTON INCIDENT.

London, Jan. 25.-There is good rea-
son 70 believe that Governor swetten-
ham of Jamaica has forwarded his
resignation to the colonial office. The
officials there say they are not pre-
pared either to confirm or deny the re-
port, but they admit having received
kilograms Of confidential character
from the governor 1t has been fully
expected here that the solution of the
difficulty would be found in Swetten-
hams resignation and the reply to in
quiries received at the colonial office
tended to confirm the report that the
governor had intimated his willing
ness to retire from his post 1t has
been freely stated in the colonial and
other government offices that it was
quite impossible for Swettenham to
continue in office, not only because of
the incident involving the withdrawal
of the American warships from King
ston, but also on account of protests
against his conduct received from the
inhabitants of Kingston.

BODY

20 TEADER DIED WITHOUT
N >tcAL ATTENTION.
e,
Body Of A., 6 ~, Syrian, Found
in Bed in II, Near wiIIiston
BY Neighbors, ~ Missed Him for
Several Days.

Williston, Jan. 25.-The body of AL
bert Berry, a Syrian homesteader, liv-
ing on a claim about thirteen miles
northwest of this city. was found in
his shack on last Tuesday morning in a
frozen condition.
The body was discovered by neigh
Dor who began to miss Berry and who
went to the shack to ascertain what
was wrong.
He found the dead body of his friend
in bed with plenty of clothing on, be-
sides sheep lined overcoat and cap
which was pulled down over his ears.
There was plenty of fuel in the shack
and an abundant supply of provisions
and it is the opinion of those who visit
ed the house that death was not due
to freezing 1t is thought. however
that Berry had become too sick to care
for himself and that he had lain in bed
helpless until the end came.
Berry was last seen on Christmas
day and there is no way OF ascertain
ing how long he has been dead.
Justice Mitchell went out for the
body on Wednesday, owing to the ILL
ness of Coroner Thomas, and 1t was
brought here for examination. No in
quest will be had, however, unless rela-
tives request 1t.
The deceased Is a young man about
rs years of age and had been in this
neighborhood only a few months. Let
ters were found in his clothing from
relatives in Minneapolis who were mo-
titled of his death. They will probably
be here today to take charge of the
body.
