bring with him? Only the old story,
the old plea and the old demagogic
argument of the Republican party.
He said that under the Dingley tariff
law we have had the greatest indus
trial expansion the world has ever
witnessed. He might have added that
under it we have also had unusual
business depression and financial dis

veaetabIe with Old Lineage.

Asparagus is the aristocrat of the
food plants None other has so distil-
guished lineage, for its records reach
back almost to the beginning of au-
thentic history. 1t is mentioned by
the comic poet Cratinus, who died
about 425 B. C.. The Romans hold
asparagus in the highest esteem, the
elder Cato treating at length, in his
de re Rustica," still extant, of the
virtues and correct cultivation of the
plant. Pliny, writing about 60 A. D.,
has a great deal to say of asparagus.
He says: "Of all the products of your
garden your chief care should be as
paragus."

A Word in EulOgium OF Riley
Grammar.

Times.
''It's all joke; it doesn't amount
to anything ~
These were the words with which
Riley Grammar, turf plunger and sport
ing celebrity, yesterday afternoon laid
down the losing hand, smiled, and quit
the game quit the game loser, as we
all must do when Death Is the dealer
and Disease the case-keeper.
The very essence of Mr.. Grannan's
character is summed Up in the WORDS
of greeting with which he recognized
the presence of the grim specter, &C
copied without a murmur its inexora-
bic decree, laughed softly and stepped
forth into the infnity Of space with
the same insousance and outward calm
with which he placed a single bet of
$3.50, 600 on the horse Navarro to win.
Most of US are good winners, but few
of US accept the defeats of life with
out voicing our grievances to the
world. Not so Mr.. Grammar. Ever
the courteous gentleman, retiring but
deDonair, he accepted with equal com
p!aisancy whatever of i'll or good for
tune the day disclosed, nor deemed a
losing hour subject matter with which
/ to bore his friends.
] To men whose blood corpUscles are
rimsoned with virility of life, and who
honor manhood in whatever guise of
/ fustian or broadcloth it cloak itself,
humanity of the Grammar stamp must
ever appeal. Such men are akin with
| the pioneers, the trail blazers, the
prospector of the west. The big-heart-
/ ed, big-souled, big-brained men, who
/ live in the big brathing spaces of
earth and who are inpsired with the
big thoughts inherent to such environ
ment. By such as these the word
defeat is unknown. They rise supreme
over every obstacle, and push aside
with careless hand the barriers nature
or mankind would throw across their
pathway. They read in desert trails
the story of their successes, and in the
serrated uplift of uriferous lodges re-
alize their accomplishment.
Of such stamp was Riley Grammar.
To the pigmies of earth, those ILL.,
puts whose lives are circumscribed by
the vapid inanities of effete social
creeds, or whose vision is narrowed by
the uncompromising horizon of religious
sect, the true-hearted manliness of
Riley Grammar will not appeal. To
their purblind consciousness the brave
spirit of this knight of fortune finds
no recognition; to their self-opinionat-
ed, self-suf1icient natures naught is ap-
parent save the course of his life was
not as theirs, must of necessity be a
life wasted
To such Of us as really live; to such
of us as live each day according to the
best that in us lies to such of US as re-
spond to the demands of friendship,
and who recognize in the heartbeat
of humanity the pulsing blood of a
common brotherhood, it matters not
what those OF moribund sensibilities
may deem most fit. To such as we the
man beneath the outware apparel is
what is worth while; is what is worth
knowing is what is worthy of respect.
Such being the case, we of US who
really live, and who in living prescribe
no course of action for our fellows
save that they live mans life in
this, mans country; to such as US l
say the character of men like Riley
Grammar must ever appeal.
Peace to his ashes.

TARIFF REVISION COMING
Matters Of Note and Comment from
Various Sources that are Of Some
Importance.

Mr.. Taft said Saturday that, IA
elected, he will Immediately upon his
Inauguration or at least as soon as
practicable call a special session OF
congress to revise the tariff. The he
publican platform, of course, pledges
the candidate TO this course, but Mr..
Taft now adds his personal word 10
the platform declaration. IF elected,
shall call the sixty-first congress to-
gether in extraordinary session to re-
wise the tariff at the very earliest mo-
ment | have authority to do so. l con-
slider such action TO be my obligation
under the tariff plank of the RepuDli-
can platform" Mr.. Taft mentioned
the special session pledge after he
had been asked il he intended to de-
liver any speeches in the campaign on
the subject of the tariff. He could not
say definitely as to that, but he de-
clared that his views on the tariff had
not changed one bit since his speech
at Bath, Me-, in September of 1906. He
is revisionist but along the lines OF
a tariff which shall equal the differ
ence between the cost of production
abroad and at home and include a
reasonable profit to the American pro-
Queer.

TO CRATE A LEMON.
Doing This Well 10 More important
Than 10 Generally Understood.

There's right and a wrong way to
thing else. and, according TO a cooking
teacher, not one woman in . hundred
knows the right way.
Most OF the cases OF curdled sauces
and custards favored with lemon are
due to the fact that the lemon isn't
grated properly" she says. "A proper
ly grated lemon would present just the
same appearance, so far as outline il
concerned, there being no deep gouges
into the pith as is generally the case.
THE Oil OF the lemon which IL
wanted for navoring Ia all In the yell
low portion Of the rind. the white pith
underneath being bitter and liable to
cause curdling II used with milk or
cream. This white pith hasn't the
slightest suspicion of the real lemon
flavor, and still the average house
keeper hasn't learned this and keeps
on grating into the bitter pith, and
then wonders why on earth the milk
should curdle!
The habit OF grating lemon cor
rectiy is easily learned when once
ones attention is called to the matter.
The grating should begin at the end
Of the lemon and as small surface
OF the crater should be used as pos
sible. This prevents waste.
THE lemon should be turned in the
same way that one turns an apple
under a knife while peeling. Grating
a lemon properly is pretty little
trick once it's learned, and 1t often
means success where before there has
been failure 4"
