Tho Sundown Sun

Editor National Tribune: In The Ma.
tional Tribune Of Jan. Mr. Tripp. OF
Canton, S. d., has given us another
problem of where is the sun at sun
down? 2" a sort of corollary to his fam
Gus sunrise problem. In all questions
! OF logic there must be certain theories
agreed upon as facts" to be used as
premises. I deny his premises. and
hence there remains no argument. In
his diagram illustration he SAYS a man
looking east at sunrise would be looking
west IL hours afterward il he did not
turn around. This is the stumbling
block which trips Mr.. Tripp, and is ut
ter fallacy, better expressed as sheer
nonsense. To space there is no east.
To be governed by mundane laws one
must stick to the earth. When ships
circumnavigate the earth do they
change front" at 1S0 degrees and flop
back again at Greenwich. like an owls
head getting dizzy? Well, not much.
Whether going east or west, that direc-
zion pertains to the earth. and contin-
ued in the same direction would meet
the starting point To the question,
Where is the sun at sundown?" an
swer: 1t is behind the earth, and would
be behind Mr.. Tripp If he did not turn
around' to look at it. The relative DO
s1tions of the sun and earth in space
nave not changed but half a degree in
that IL hours, counted on the earth,s
orbit, and has nothing to do with the
sun rising or setting. It Is the daily
rotation of the earth that causes the
Phenomena, and that part of the earth
dropping the plane of its horizon is al
ways east and conversely west-Joseph

| nutritious, especially for invalids or
those whose digestive apparatus needs
humoring. Used in moderation they
supply the waste of nerve tissue better
than breads or meat. In beating eggs
for custard do not get them too light,
or they will float on top. The incest
way of cooking custard is to bake it in
a pudding dish or individual cups, set
ting them in a pan of hot water and
| covering until nearly done. Twenty
minutes will usually suffice for the pax
| ing. Custard becomes watery with eX-
tended cooking. Test with knife
blade on the edge. If it comes out
clear the custard is done. A plain
| custard requires one quart of new milk,
four eggs (whites and yolks beaten to-
gether). six level tablespoonfuls sugar,
salt spoonful salt and nutmeg or
vanilla to flavor.
Prune gingerbread is much liked by
children.
Soften in the oven one-half cupful
lard and butter mixed. Add three
fourths cup molaSses and one-half cup
full sugar. two well-beaten eggs, tea
spoonful each ginger and salt, and a
teaspoonful soda dissolved in three
quarters of a cup of sour milk. Add
I the grated yellow rind of lemon and
with flour to make rather stiff batter.
Bake in a medium oven.
If you have the digestion to stand it,
fig pudding will please your appetite,
| Mix together one cupful molaSses,
one cupful chopped suet, two cupfuls
| figs cut fine, teaspoonful cinnamon
and a half teaspoonful nutmeg. Add
a .teaspoonful soda, dissolved in a
tablespoonful of hot water, then add-to
cupful milk a pinch of salt and two
eggs beaten light Lastly, add three
and a quarter cupfuls sifted flour and
beat all well together. Turn into a
buttered mold and steam five hours or
boil three hours. Serve hot with
| foamy sauce.
Try this casserole made from cold
boiled lamb. Boil one cup of rice. Chop
! fine one and a half cups of meat, sea-
son with one teaspoon each of parsley.
onion and celery, minced fine, salt and
| pepper to taste. Moisten with gravy
or hot water to pack nicely. Butter a
| mold, line bottom and sides half inch
deep with the rice, pack in the meat,
cover with rice and steam 45 minutes.
Turn out on platter and pour over it
tomato sauce. This is attractive look
ing as well as tasty.
In another recipe to utilize cold lamb
or any other kind of left over meat,
you press the lamb as you do corn beef.
When cold slice in thick slices, dip in
egg, then cover and fry in deep fat.
Serve with or without tomato sauce.
Lamb stock combined with tomato
makes delicious soup. Minced lamb
on toast is nice for breakfast. Lamb
pie or stew is nice. When making a
meat pie have the filling cold as pos
sible, bake at least half an hour. II
crust is thick bake longer than that.
A good sour pudding sauce is made
as follows:
Mix a rounding tablespoonful corn
starch with one cupful sugar and stir
into a cup and a half boiling water.
Cook five minutes. Add a rounding
tablespoonful butter. a tablespoonful
vinegar, pinch of salt and either
lemon extract or nutmeg to flavor.

Soldiers Preference in Michigan.

Editor National Tribune: The State
of Michigan has not forgotten the obli-
CATION she assumed toward her sons
who went to the war in 1S61-65, and
periied their lives in the National de-
fense. One Of those obligations was to
keep the soldier boys in grateful re-
membrance, and to regard them as
holding claim upon her favor some-
what in addition to the claim of other
classes of her citizens. This claim re-
ceived formal definition in a law of the
last Legislature, which directed that
Union soldiers and sailors shall be pre-
ferred in appointments to service in all
public departments of State and NUM-
cipal Governments in Michigan, and
permits the removal or suspension of
any such appointee only upon cause
shown in hearing before the execu-
tive officer OF the State or municipality
and upon the written order of such
executive. This is No. 329, Public Acts
Of 1897, and was passed by a unanimous
vote in each branch Of the Legislature,
and promptly approved by Governor
Warner, who is now elected to third
term.
One Of the Senators who voted fer
the law, Hon. Oramel B. Fuller has
now been elected Auditor-General of
the State, and on Jan. 1 assumed charge
Of department employing $50 clerks,
and while there would naturally be un-
der a new administration a good many
changes in such a body of employees,
Mr.. Fuller has announced that no vet
eran soldier among them shall lose his
place. He says we owe to the boys of
the COS whatever we are as a Nation,
and he desires to give fullest recogni-
ton to that fact. There are eight old
soldiers who have been serving in that
department, all of whom will hold their
desks without other credentials. In
eight other departments of the State
Government there are 20 or more vet
Grams on the rolls, and the emphatic
stand announced by Auditor-General
Fuller will be influential in giving for
them and for comrades in municipal
appointments thruout the State practi-
cal recognition of that sentiment of the
State which was declared in the law.
The legal validity of the law is uues-
TONED by some; but that does not lessen
its moral force as a declaration of the
sentiment and purpose of the State.
which Is now so unreservedly avowed
and given practical effect by Mr.. Full
