Keep Merinque Cold.

I have found in making desserts
with a meringue where it is more
convenient to prepare it the day be-
fore or where there has been enough
made for two days, that the meringue
Will keep soft and as fresh as when
made if placed in an ice box Other
wise it Will be tough, says a writer in
the Chicago Tribune. In case it is
pie the pie may be placed in a hot
oven a few minutes-just long enough
to heat the crust through a few min
utes before serving. This will make
the crust as nice and as crisp as
when first made, and the meringue
will be in good condition.

PROPER CARE or THE RUG.
Preventive Measures Win ProIong Its
Life and Usefulness.

There seems to be a popular impress
sion, according TO Good Housekeep-
ing, that an oriental rug will wear for
ever, no matter what sort of treatment
it receives, but this is one of those
mistakes which are often discovered
too late to be rectised. In the east,
where they are worn smooth by the
gliding of bare feet, their chances for
Immortality are great. but in America
boot-heels are their constant and IN
sidiOus enemies. However, their lives
may be prolonged by skilful attention.
If the oyercasting on the edge is gone
or giving way, a thread Of carpet wool
or yarn will supply new oYercasting
and give new resistance. If a warp or
wett thread on the back is broken, it
should not be left to slip out, taking
the knots with it, but should have a
linen thread tied to it at one end, be
woven over and under as far as the
break extends, and then be tied at
the other. II knots come out they
should be replaced at once with the
aid OF a coarse, Old-fashioned worsted
needle. If the selvage wears crooked,
1t should be raveled out and overcast,
saving the surplus wool for other re-
pairs. All these are valuable pre-

SENATOR FROM IOWA
ALLISON CELEBRATES SEVENTY
NINTH BIRTHDAY.
Colleagues in Congress Unite in Ex-

Once Very Near Republican
Nomination for Presidency.

Senator William Boyd
Allison of Iowa recently celebrated his
seventy-ninth birthday, and his col
league 10th Republicans and Demo
Gratis, united in extending their con-
gratulatiOns, for few members are
more popular than the aged Iowan.
Senator Allison hasabroken all pre-
viOus records for length of service and
attained a maximum degree Of per.
sonal influence and unusual domina-
ton of public affairs. He is the leader
of the senate Of the United States.
with all that this leadership means in
power and ability to create and con-
troll legislation. It is said, and prob
ably with truth, that there is more of
Senator AllisOn's influence and char
acter written into the statute books
to-day than of either President Roose-
welt or Speaker Cannon, both of whom
are considered to have contributed an
unusual share to the lawmaking OF
the present generation.
Senator AllisOn's personal history.
briefly told, is that he was born in
Perry, o., on March 2, 1929, and after
attending Western Reserve college
studied law and practised in Ohio un-
til 1857, when he removed to Iowa.
His entry into national politics came

| congress.
| On occasions Senator Allison has
been very near to the nomination of
| his party for the presidency, some be-
! lieve much nearer than Thomas B.
| Reed. Roscoe Conkling, or even John
| Sherman. He would have undoubtedly
/ made a good president, the equal Of
many and the superior of some, had
| the fortune Of politics turned his way.
During the progress of financial
| legislation in the present congress he
has been often consulted and. as the
ranking member of the senate COM
mittee on finance, has taken a quiet
| and transformations but conservative
and helpful part in the framing Of
legislation which viii relieve the eoun-
try from the conditions which resulted
in the panic of 1907.
Senator Allison is the author Of the
internal revenue law of 1868. the es-
sential features of which are still in
force. Prior to its passage the tax on
distilled spirits was two dollars a gal
IOll anu AliE lEF tH llACl tlIOIlI ABOUT
$14,0000O0. while during the first year
following the passage of the Allison
act the tax. while reduced to IS cents,
amounted through the elimination Of
frauds and its proper collection, to
$36 100000.
He was chairman Of a special COM
mittee which spent the summer of
1874 investigating the government
Of the District OF Columbia The bill
