Following the letter written to Secretary of
War Dickinson by w. r. Michaels. an official Of

There is no difference in the WHIP
ming qualities of gravity and separa-

experienced 1t is due to other factors
and not the method of getting the

tanned with cream containing 20 to
40 per cent butter fat. Pasteurized
cream may be whipped as easily as
unpasteurized If it is thoroughly cooled
and held at 35 to As degrees Fahren-
heit for at least two hours before
whipping. Cream should whip in
from 30 to 60 seconds. When long

END OF PET DEVASTATION.
New Yorker Finally Rid of the Dis
pissed High Hat.

There is a certain man in New York
whose pet detestation is "a high hat.
In his journey through life he has ac-
CURED many dislikes, some rrejudices,
and few hatreds-but his feeling
toward a high hat goes far beyond the
limits implied by the mild word
hatred"
However, family influences were
brought to bear on him when he had
reached the proper milestone in his
life, and these influences were so
strong and insistent that eventually
the man in question purchased a high
hat; what is more, he actually
donned it.
But his hatred abated not jot. In
fact, 1T grew. He used to open his
hatboX and eye the hat viciously, MUIR
derously. But thoughts of what the
family would say if he should adopt
violent measures always deferred him,
and every time he shut the box again,
leaving the thing unframed. and
vented his rage in profanity.
Once he and his family went to
live at a hotel in the country. And
one night, with appalling suddenness.
that hotel caught fire. -.:....' :.
Fortunately, everybody in it was
able to get out In safety. The young
man of the hat, after counting heads,
and seeing that his people were out of
danger, decided to dash into the burn
Ing building once more-there was
still a bit of time-in order to see
whether he might rescue few more
things from his room. In the excite
ment attendant on the discovery Of
the fire the hotel guests had been
obliged to look to their personal safe
ty, without thinking overnuch of that
of their belongings.
Well, the young man, plunging gal
lantly through flame and smoke,
reached his room. There, the first
thing which caught his eye was the
high hat
With look of diabolical glee he re-
garded 1t for few seconds. Then
with an exclamation of delight-he
kicked it into the inmost part of the
room, into cracking flame and eddy
ing smoke, far from all possible
means Of escape.
Then, diabolical glee still illumining
his features, he emerged a happy
man.

An Obnoxious Fishing Bill

Mr., Colgate, OF Essex county, has
introduced in the Assembly a bill which,
is very detrimental to the shad fishermen
of this region. 1t is Assembly bill No.
105.
The objections to it are that it will stop
all fishing for shad and sturgeon after
June !, and from Saturday at noon until
6 o'clock Monday morning, in the Della
ware river between Delaware and New
Jersey. 1t would prohibit the Jerseymen
fishing below the Pennsylvania State line,
while Delawareans and PennsyIvanians
would be permitted to fish.
The bill also requires that all fisher
men be required to take out a-license
from County Clerk, paying SIS for seine
nets. The Slad Fishermen's Association
have made their objections know to
their legislators,
All bills in regards to fishing in the
Delaware river should be concurrent
