For the Hostess.

If making the coffee at the table
remember there is a right and wrong
way of making and serving coffee.
Have the coffee machine and tea ket-
tie on the table. Both should be placed
on the tray at the foot Of the table be-
fore the hostess, the tea kettle at the
head Of the plate and the coffee pot
at the right of the plate. Fill the un-
der part of the coffee pot with boiling
water, put the necessary amount of
coffee in the glass top and properly
adjust it. Light the alcohol burner be.
meath and the coffee will be prepared
in a few minutes. There are methods
for making this by electricity, though
the above method is more in use.
Serve the coffee black with miniature
pitchers filled with cream topped with
whipped cream.

Another good action TO indulge in
while occupying this position is, with
your two hands strongly clenched,
press upon the abdomen firmly, causing
the subjacent parts to yield to the
pressure. This action may be contin-
ued for several minutes over the
whole region of the abdomen. This
action excites the muscular contrac-
tility of the tube.
Another action having the same eT-
feet as the above is: With the pres
sure of the hands, follow the course OF
the colon, beginning low upon the
right side of tho abdomen, passing
around beneath the stomach, and ter
minating on the side opposite. This
circular stroking may be continued for
several minutes. Follow this move
ment with the pressure exercise under
the short ribs. The ends of the fingers
are applied from below, and strong
pressure made with a tremulous mo-
ton. This exercise excites muscular
and nervous action in the organs
reached.
The second exercise is one taken
while occupying a kneeling position.
The arms are in an angle position
elbow bent, while the upper arm is
near the side parallel with the body.
The knees are wide apart, and the
trunk leaning back from the peTpen-
dicular.
The arms are slowly stretched up
wards until they become parallel with
each other, and in a line with the
body. Retain this position for a short
time-then allow them to slowly re.
turn to the commencing position.
Repeat this action ten or twelve
times, using care that the arms are
stretched so that they are exactly IN
a line with the reclining trunk.
This exercise may be varied, when
the arms are stretched, by permitting
the trunk to lean as far back as posi-
BILE, then sway from side to side
bending only at the waist line.
The effect of this action is far
reaching, noticeably in the arms, the
top of the shoulders, the region be-
meath the shoulder blades, the sides of
the chest, the diaphragm, the abdo-
minal muscles, as well as the visceral
organs which are raised by it and
moderately compressed. - Harriet

GOVERNOR WARNER RIGHT.
State Board Of Canvassers Con Only
Recount, the Ballots Cast.

The Michigan supreme court, the
highest court in the state, has held that
the board Of state canvassers may re-
count the votes cast, but it may not in
vestigate the alleged irregularities in the
enrolment.
In the brief investigation made by the
state canvassing board last week, 1t was
conclusively shown that primary cleo
ton inspectors were lax in their observ-
ance of the requirements of the primary
law, but the powers of the board are
limited by the court to the making OF a
new count of the ballots without draw
ing out ballots cast by illegel enrolled
persons.
This supports the contention advanced
by Gov. Warner at the recount of the
recent primary votes now being conduct
ed by the state board of canvassers.

TAXES APPORTIONED
Cratiot County's Share De-
creased by More Than
$1,000.

The annual apportionment of state
taxes, which has just been forwarded to
the several counties by the auditor,
general shows the total state tax to be
paid in December is a, 1893, 422. OF this
sum 1868, 1877 so goes to the support of
the university, 1878, III for the current
expenses of insane asylums, SIP, 900 for
current expenses of prisons, $500, 900 for
the general purposes of the state govern
ment. $l68, 900 for the military forces
and the balance for educational and
reformatory institutions of the state
highway department, board of health,
library and other purposes.
Gratiot county's total state tax is
$3S, 69l Al. This is about seven thous-
and less than last year. Evidently the
hue and cry raised about increased state
taxes if local option carried is more or
less of boyle.
Only four counties in the staIe pay
above 100000 They are
Wayne county, $3.50, 1888 Houghton,
S33s, $40; Kent, $3.50. 900; Saginaw, SOB,
S03 Calhoun is close with 800, l46,
Lenawee with $94, $40 and Washtenaw
with $94 ,3l0.
Lake county pays the smallest state
tax, 1880, with Crawford a close
second with SO, 500.

FAyORS LOCAL OPTION.
Was It's Most Bitter Opponent
During Campaign Last
Spring

While in the city last week to look
over the fair, Perry +. Powers of Cad
lilac, president of the fair association
there, stated that he was now converted
to local option. Last spring, when Cad
lilac had the campaign on, Mr., Powers
through his paper the Cadillac Express,
fought most valiantly against local OPP
ton, conscientiously believing the law
would prove ineffective and would hurt
the business interests of the city.
Today Mr. Powers is reported as say
ing 81 am completely convinced that it
is good law. The city of Cadillac vot-
ed against the proposition by over POO
majority, but if a vote were taken today
the change in sentiment has been such
that the city would give over 500 major
ity for local option.
Mr.. Powers said that not only he but
most OF the business men in Cadillac
were also converted as he was.
His opposition to the law was based
at the time of the campaign on reports
he had from other counties, like Berrien
where it is said the law was not enforced
and could not be enforced, and. hence it
was bad to have it on the books.
Asked whether he thought Cadillac
would again return to the saloon, Mr..
Powers said that it was his opinion
that not only the present generation,
but also his grandchildren and his
great grandchildren will never see a sal
DON again in Cadillac.
