ing with printing and binding plant.
Mr.. Rossiter will edeavor to find out
why, roughly speaking it has cost the
government $50 to ts,-n job which
commercial houses would do for SIS.
The committee may inquire into
such reports as these that As cents a
pound has been paid for quantities of
ink worth less than twenty cents a
pound; that the store rooms of the
government printing Office contains at
the present time more paper stock
than under other administrations was
used up in half dozen years; that
so great was the pomp with which
Public Printer Stillings surrounded
himself, that persons having business
with him were frequently required to
make appointments day ahead, and
never could gain his presence without
running the file of uniformed lackeys
and threading a maze Of scarlet tape.
Chairman Lands will announce the
time of the next meeting of the inves
tigation committee.

SHOCKING CORN.

Two men should work together, and
the shocks should be started on a JACK,
which is made by putting two legs, well
braced together, near one end of a ten
foot scantling, and having an auger hole
near the upper end for broom handle.
AS soon as four armfuls are set I'D
against the jack the shock should be
loosely tied with stalk and the Jack
removed. In commencing, each cutter
should take two rows, and all the shocks
should be started that the cutters expect
to cut during the day, so that when they
again start the shock has w:lted and
cured out all that is possible They
should now take only one row each and
cut from shock to shock, making each
armful go half way around the shock,
in order to allow it to wilt and cure out
After they have cut clear through, they
should again go back to the beginning
and cut another row each, continuing
this until the shock row is complete
always having in mind the perfect cur.

THE MILK PAIL.

Many people who have the care OF
COWS and milk do not realize how much
Of their trouble with milk souring too
soon, with bad favors in cream or but
er, is due to the milk pail. Wooden or
paper pals should never be used for milk
as they can NOT be so perfectly cleansed
as tin. The white iron pail is preferable
as it has no seams to serve as germ
catchers, but tin pail can be kept per-
fectly clean if whisk broom or small
brush is used in washing it. A suds OF
warm water and soap should be used for
washing the pail after the milk has been
rinsed out with a dash of cold water.
This will remove all impurities and with
scalding in boiling water will insure
good milk and butter, provided the other
vessels are as carefully cleansed as the
pail. The strainer also is often at fault
as regards the keeping qualities of the
milk. If cloth strainer is used it
should be we'll rinsed in cold water to
remove the milk before being scalded in
soap suds and rinsed for drying. A
wire strainer sometimes becomes cloggsd
by pouring hot water into it before the
milk has been rinsed out thus cooking
a cheeselike substance into the meshes.
This can be removed by securing with
salt and a brush, then wash well with
soap and warm water. and be more care
full next time.

Minority Currency Bill.

Washington.-What will be known
as "the minority currency bill" was
introduced by Representative John
Sharp Williams of Mississippi, the
Democrat leader of the house, who
drew the measure as a result of a
conference of Democrats held behind
closed doors. Those besides Mr.. Will
liams who participated in the confer
ence were Representative Lewis of
Georgia, Pujo Of Louisiana, Glass of
Virginia, Gillespie of Texas, Ollie
James of Kentucky, Crawford of
North Carolina, and McHenry of
Pennsylvania, all members of the
committee on banking and currency.
Entire harmony is said to have mark
ed the meeting.
1t is understood that the bill as
drawn by Mr.. Williams may be sub
jected to slight amendment by its
supporters, but it will come before
the house in the shape of minority
report from the banking and curren-
ey committee in its present form.

round pasteboard box can be used as
a foundation for this. 1t is covered
with white crepe paper and big red
heart pasted in the centre. 1t adds
to the appearance IL the edges Of the
box are touched up with line of gold
paint, as shown in our illustration.
For serving refreshments at val
entine party there is nothing more
effective than heart and arrow ice
cream or charlotte russo boxes, and
the best thing about ITEM is that they
can be so easily and quickly made.
Buy some rather thin bright-red
pasteboard at stationery store, and
also sheet of white pasteboard.
Then get some of the ordinary pleated
paper cases that are used for char
lotte russo, BISCUIT glace, etc. An
arrow is cut out of the white PASTE
board, painted gold or covered with
gilt paper and pasted across the large
heart that has just been cut from the
red pasteboard. A circle Is then cut
out of the heart, through arrow and
all, the ice cream box inserted in the
opening and held in place with little
paste.
The paper baskets can be even
more quickly made, the foundation
being the same sort of pleated paper
case. In making the red paper basket,
this is given a handle formed of
wire, with red crepe paper twisted
around it and a heart and arrow
pasted at the top. The paper itself
is simply covered with frill of red
paper, held in place by just a touch

The board reported that the soldiers
had not destroyed or carried away
any of the church furniture, but the
Republicans insisted on making the
appropriation. Chairman Cooper of
the committee voted against this IN
crease in the appropriation.
The Southern members fought the
bill on the ground that while the dam
ages should be paid. Congress should
also make appropriation for the
churches damaged or destroyed in the
Southern states by union soldiers dur
ing and after the war, and that they
would not vote for this new bill until
all the churches at home had been
paid for. The committee also divided

red hearts and gold arrows, and the
top and bottom of the shade are fin

up with gold paint.
st. Valentines Day was originally
the day dedicated to the incoming Of
spring. The Romans kept 1t in honor
of Pan and Juno, and the festival,
which lasted several days, was called
"Lupercalia. The early Christian
church, desiring to effect a change in
this much-abused feast, very adroitly
reconstructed the old practice of the
lottery of lovers names. In place of
the names of real youths and maid

slips of paper, were drawn by the
