A NIxhtmare1e.. R.rebit.

A bachelor whose skill at getting up dainty supper dishes assures him plen- ty of company in the evenings is re sponsible for a substitute for the Welsh rabbit that is free from nightmare. He covers lightly toasted bread with finely grated cheese and instead of slipping it in the oven places it beneath the flame of the gas broiler until the cheese has been toasted light brown.
 If a good cream cheese is used there is not the slightest suggestion of sog- giness or greasiness, and even those to whom a rabbit means a night of trou- bled dreams may indulge in this with no fear of evil consequences
 The trick lies in the grating of the cheese. Broken into bits, it would melt into a pasty mass. Finely divided, each particle should be individually toasted before it has a chance to melt down, and in that state it is readily assimilat- ed.-New York Press.

Muscles Tn Tension.

The Revue Scientifique has been ask ing what muscles tire soonest, with the conclusion that it is not the muscles in use, but those under tension, although doing no work. The writer urges us to use the arms and legs less and the back and neck more, for on them comes the greatest strain. He has been asking men of all occupations the same ques- tonS:
 When you have worked much. where do you feel tired?
 Before you were trained did fatigue show itself in the same regions?
 All the answers point to the same conclusions. The baker who kneads dough all night complains of fatigue in his legs.
 The blacksmith is tired, not in his arms and shoulders, but in his back and loins.
 The young soldier, after a march, is especially tired in the back of the neck, even if he has carried no knapsack.
 The oarsman who is in perfect train ing after prolonged exercise gets tired in his calves and insteps.
 These facts point to the conclusion that in any continued effort we should try to alter the habit of contraction. That is to say, the body, like the mind, needs change of work.

rurHt.h Altar of Roses.

Turkish altar of roses is mainly pro luced in Bulgaria and is carried on in he fertile valleys on the southern piopes of the Balkans. The rose har- rest in Bulgaria begins about the third week in May and lasts about a month. The second great seat of rose farming m Europe is the space between the Maritime Alps and the Mediterranean, m the extreme southeast of France. This is, in fact. the great scent farming md perfumery making center of Flu rope, the town of sGrasse being the em- porium of the district Of course at tar of roses is also produced in India, Persia and Asiat1c Turkey under the climatic conditions desired, but the Ereat bulk Of the supply is furnished by the European regions already noted. The roses employed for altar making in Europe are: In Bulgaria the red damask rose and in the south of France the Provence rose, hybrid or variety of the hundred leaf rose, to which also be-. longs the we'll known cabbage rose.

The wedding Ring Finger.

The wedding ring was placed on the left hand as nearest the heart and on the fourth finger because that finger was supposed to have its own private wire" Gin the shape of delicate nerve) to the heart That finger, too, was call ed the medicine finger, and the belief was that by virtue of the little nerve it could detect a dangerous poison if simply inseBted in the liquid From that belief the idea that wedding rings the rings worn; on that finger-had special curative qualities had its rise. To this day wedding rings are rubbed over an obstinate sty on an eyelid.

~M.ad.nine Potted Phr..e..-


 We have protested against the fault less even dress of the hurried descrip- live writer, since evening dress is the snly male attire that excludes the possi- bility of error. But a long list could be made of the phrases-tinned and Btale-which all writers use who write ike contemplating and hurried builders, building with ready made doors and window panes. For example, one never reads an account of a railway accident from the lips of the badly shaken" passenger without finding that 'all went we'll untir'-the thing happened. But perhaps the most maddening of these potted phrases is ''the rash act" You will read how MT. Smith or MT. Brown sat down and wrote several long letters to his relatives, how he had with great care arranged his affairs, bow with the utmost deliberation he purchased poison, a revolver, new razor and ball of twine; how be sent Azs lamily, away for a holiday, went to his room and conscientiousiy poisoned. Etrangled, sliced and shot himself. '.No reason,'' runs the. inevitable comment, 'is assigned for the rash act" which was as deliberate as the movement of the Rhone glacier.-London Chronicle

The Choice of . wife.

A German professor selects a woman who can merely stew prunes not be- cause stewing prunes and reading Pro clus make delightful harmony, but because he wants his prunes stewed for him and chooses to read Proclus by himself A fullness of sympathy, a sharing of life one with another, is scarcely ever looked for except in a narrow, conventional sense Men like to come home and find a blazing fire and a smiling face and an hour of re taxation. Their serious thoughts and earnest aims in life they keep on one side. And this is the carrying out of love and marriage almost everywhere in the world, and this the degrading of women by both.-From One of Mrs. Browning's Letters, 1S46.

Freshne.. of Youth.

He was respectable looking man, and, judging from his appearance, he was . butcher by trade. and this be-
 lief was verified a few minutes later. He carried white apron under his armr and &as. he entered a car huge cleaver dropped from the bundle to the floor A youth who had not reached the age of discretion sank out merrily, Say. mister, you dropped your pocket knife" The passengers laughed, but they could not help but think that the youth took a long chance on kidding a man with cleaver.-Albany Journal.

Tn. value of New Ide...

The recognition of the value of a new idea in regard to a business point is leading employers to encourage criti- cisms and suggestions from employees in respect to the details of the busf- ness, thus utilizing their microscopic view rather than depending solely on the birdseye view which is taken by the manager. A friendly feeling re suits from this attitude, and the em- ployee takes deeper interest in his work, developing his own capacity and helping the business. To see his idea carried out by his superfors puts new life into him and adds new enthusiasm to his efforts.-Success.

Aldrich Laying Plans to Have
The Entire Country SWaI-
low the Bill and Say It
Tastes Good.

Washington, July 15.-Mr. Aldrich
Is making well laid plans to have
the country swallow the tariff bill and
say it tastes good. The statement in
defense OF the measure which he is
preparing is intended to open CAM
paign for the purpose of gaining sup
port for the bill the country over.
Senator LaFollette who has had ex-
perts at work comparing the Aldrich
bill with the Dingley law gave out the
following:
According to figures furnished by
the bureau of statistics, the bill as
passed by the senate on the basis of
importations of 1907, leaves unchanged
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1909-07-15

the duties on imports of the value Of
$45O, ,1O6. .O37, or GAGS per cent. Duties
are increased upon imports of, the val
ue. of .$149,716,619, or 21.51 per cent.
The average increase of the entire bill
is 5.65 per cent. .--.-.
"The average increase of duty
amounts to 81 per cent, while the ave-
rage decrease amounts to about % per
cent
Compared With House Bill.
LAS the bill passed the house, ac-
cording to the estimates of Chairman
Payne, the increases upon the basis Of
importations of 1906 affected imports
valued at more than $4,000 600. while
the decreases affected imports valued
at less than $46,OOO,OOO.
Unless the rates are greatly reduced
in conference the bill should be ve-
toed. In it's present form 1t is vio-
lation of the promise made to the
people to generally reduce existing
rates. Even the lowest rates imposed
in the bill as passed by both houses
would be violation of the pledge
Al0OO " LAC PCOPAC oONauSO CNCAy A0lS
is higher than difference in the cost Of
production between this and the COM
peting country.
The contention that the conference
can only act within the limits of the
highest rates of one house and the
lowest rates Of the other is not cor
rect. A point Of order to this effect
during the consideration of the Ding
ley bill was oyerruled. So that the con-
ference is in position to fix the rates
on the items where there is differ
ence between the houses at a point
where it measures the difference in the
cost Of production. The rates should
be fixed at that point. Unless the bill
is made to conform substantially to
the promise made to the people it
should be vetoed
Figures on the Other Side.
Commenting upon the statements
made today by Senator La Toilette
that the senate bill is 5.65 per cent
above the Dingley law, Senator Smoot
