KITCHEN CONFERENCES.

We are frequently told that house work is q belated industry. which in Yentors have overlooked in their max iety to give to men labor saving de vices. Recently the inventors seem to be looking our way. Now we can mix bread and cake by simply turning a crank if We have the machine. There are vegetable cutters which perform as many feats as slight of hand man. They v-ill peel, dice. shave. chop or flute potato just as the house keeper determines. There are butter moulds which not only cut the butter in desired portions. but curve it into q fluted roll without even q touching of the hand. There are straw berry hullers and cherry stoncrs. there are knives which. with just one skilful twist. remove the heart from the grapefruit. There are patent bread coasters, new fangled steamers and the tirclCsS cooker which will cook food while we are at the card club or the ladies aid society.

Collect all the pie lures you can of countries in which your particular missionaries are work ing. Any picture representing seen cry. custom, prominent persons or any historical incident will serve. Mount them on cardboard.

They may also be used as a travelling gallery. loaning q picture to q child to take home for week.

Newspaper Changes Hands.

That excellent contemporary, the Fl Paso Times. has changed hands-has Npassed out of the control Of Captain Hart. who has owned it for years and is now the property of a company composed in part. if not largely. of Fl Paso business men. who are rep resented in the management by Thomas O'Keefe.
 The new management announces important changes of policies. though they are not yet defined.
 The Times has kept abreast of the rapid growth of Fl Paso in recent years-no small achievement consid- ering the rapidity of the towns growth. The Times progress has been due in large measure to Mir O'Keefe. who has been connected with it., though not continuously, for d score of years. {.
 In late years Captain Hart has talk en little part in the active manage mcnt of the Times. much of his time having been spent in travelling for his health.

A Texas Conspiracy.

some fear is expressed by Texas democratic papers of plot against the democracy of the Lone Star state. The parties to the conspiracy are all legged to he the prollibitionists and the republicans Just how many prohi- bjtionists there are in Texas we do is considerably spotted by~focai op- ton districts. and that in places still mcnt. But all men who vote for pro- hibiiion by counties or districts could not he counted upon te vote for state wide prohibition.
 We do know. though. about how many republicans there are in Texas, and we further know that unless the prohibitionists can muster a pretty strong force. the democracy of Texas need not immediately begin losing sleep
 Such 2 coalition. if unsuccessful. would undoubtedly be a bad thing Tor nrohibition. What has been secured in that direction has been secured chiefly by democratic votes. just as in strongly republican states of the north prohibition owes what success it has had mainly to republican votes.

Tuberculosis Sunday.

This is Tuberculosis Sunday. sea- son for the enlarging of the campaign Of education against the White Death In every pulpit in the land there will be discussed the doctrine of preven- ton, and many will be impressed who have hitherto not been reached by the waves of literature on the subject of consumption which have swept around them
 Considering the dreadful nature of the plague it is astonishing that so large number of persons have no dread of it and neglect the simplest precautions against its spread
 If the precautions which have been urged by physicians were taken. and most of them are natural and not bur- drusome. the ravagcs of the disease in a few years would be greatly checked.
 Travellers in Oriental countries mar vel at tic want of sanitation and the carclcssness of the inhabitants by which Visitations by plaques are in vitcd, But no plague is so compre- hcnsivc as consumption. There is none chance Of escape. The sweep of cholera. for instance. is more violent. but it's victims are few compared with those of tuberculosis. In every com munity that has been ravaged by cholera, there arc many who recov cred from the disease. How many are there in any community upon whose checks consumption set it's red seal are living today?
 That q cure for this most dreadful "f human scourgcs will sometime be found we may believe but we have nothing to do with finding the cure: even the great body of physicians have nothing to do with it. It is their busi- ness 10 relieve as far as. possible the suffering and to draw. if possible, from the hand of death those upon whom it has not taken the firm grip of the advanced stage.
 II is our business to take such measures as we may to keep the dis case within the narrowest bounds and by such precautions as we learn. to restrict further those bounds.
 one object. the chief object. of the Tuberculosis Sunday is to impress upon us the need of exercising such knowledge as we have in defensive warfare against consumption.

 A majority of the Voters of this country care more for party than they do for prohibition or the liquor traf- fife. Though they support prohibition in local option elections or in cleo tions on statewide prohibition, they would vote for their party if they be- lieved it to be in danger If such a situation as this should who have made many districts dry would turn about and make them wet.
