Candy as a Decoration.

Wine, said sarcastic Frenchman,

Just waking up to the idea that even
sugar can be used IN making candy,
aud with sugar at FIVE cents pound,
or thereabouts, or candy at anywhere
from twenty cents to a dollar a
pound, it does not seem as though
the use of sugar as a material for
candy were commercially impractic-
able.
The census indicates that the
manufactures are getting nearly 500,
900, coo a year for the candy they
make and we presume, therefore,
that the consumers pay more than
s2oo, 900, 900 a year to satisfy the
demands of the national sweet tooth.
The subject is of very general inter
est, and if the candy of which there
is so much "in our mldstr be COM
posed In great part of deleterious

clay known commercially as terra
alba, sweetened with saccharine or
glucose, colored to please the eye,
polished with powdered soapstone
and finished off with shellac, it is
because the candy was made for
purposes of decoration. The fancy
patterns keep their shape better when
made of clay than when sugar is
used, and tale, which takes the
shine off womans face, puts it on
candies, and shellac gives the top
layer of bonbons a lustre. that can
be got In no other way.
But as the public is getting into
the habit of eating the candy, 1t
becomes necessary for the manu-
facmres to change the materials and
produce an edible rather than a
merely decorative confectionery.
Therefore many confecuoncrs do
not use white clay; more care
is taken than there was once in the
selection of pigments for colonng
candies; shellac is being omitted,
and candy is being sent out with
what the laundriss would call
rdomestic finish" instead of a high
polish, and few days ago the offic-
ers of the associated confecuoners
sent out circular letter that pow
dered soapstone be discontinued in
giving the candies a fine, hard finish,

DON'T TALK ABOUT YOUR AGE
Man Of Experience Makes a wIse
Suggestion to Old Mon and
Young.

Don't" said a man of experience
tell people your age.
don't mean by that that you want
TO lie about 1t; indeed you want to tell
the truth If It's necessary; but what I
mean Is don't go around blatting about
1t. Keep It to yourself.
You meet men who are proud of
their age. men of mature years but
who are still strong and rugged and
able. that like to tell how old they
really are, and then you meet youthful
men who are getting on in the world
ana doing fine things that like to tell
how young they really are. Mistakes
both.
The mature man may really look
years younger than he is, and II he
does that is to his great advantage
TOT the majority of people don't like
olo men around; they want young
oiood. And as for the young man who
may look older but who boasts of his
youth. that's mistake because people
don't like men too young; they want
men seasoned with at least some age
and experience.
its foolish man, however able
ne may be. who goes around talking
about how old or how young he really
49, This can't do him any good and
It may do him harm. It is wise man.
Whatever his age. that doesn't talk
about his age at all. but let's his work

OPPOSES RECIPROCITY.

National Grange Demands Reduction
on Everything or Nothing.
| New York - The machinery Of the
National Grange, an organization
claiming membership Of 1000, 900
farmers in so states, has been started
to defeat the ratification by congress
Of the Canadian reciprocity treaty.
The legislative committee Of the
grange at 4 special meeting recently
adopted resolution protesting
against the enactment Of the recipro-
city bill, called upon the membership
to exert pressure upon Representatives
from their various districts to vote
against the measure and decided to go
to Washington to map out campaign
there.
The legislative committee IL COM
posed Of x-Governor Nahum ]. Bash
elder, Of Concord, chairman; Aaron
Jones. Of South Bend, Ind, and T. s.
Atkeson, Aorgantown, W. Va. AS
soon As the terms of the proposed
treaty became public they exchanged
kilograms, decided upon New York rs
meeting place, and left their homes
without delay, to head of any possible
campaign that,might be started for the
bills enactment.
1--WE are not opposed to q general
reduction Of the tariff" Mr.. Atkeson
said, "but We are opposed to any ar
rangement which will make fish Of one
industry and flesh Of another. Revise
the tariff-yes, but do it all at once,
and not by reciprocal treaty with
country which exports agricultural
products almost exclusively.
Remove the tariff on steel and iron
and manufactured articles along with
farm products and we won't object.
But we do not think 1t fair to compel
the farmers to compete with foreign
products and allow the manufacturer
to derive the benefit of high protec-
tive tariff
acting along these lines we have
decided to oppose the enactment Of the
bill. The committee issued a state
ment this afternoon which will be sent
to every one Of the 1900 oranges in
the organization.

FIGHTING At JuAREz.
FIrst Encounter Results In Nothing
But Harmless Exhibition.

But Harmless Exhibition.
Ell Paso, Feb. S.-The flrst battle
of Juarez between federal troops
and insurrectionists was exhibited
here today. Exhibited" Is the proper
word, FOR no one was hurt on either
side. and the exhibition" was viewed
by thousand or more Ell Pasoans,
who lined the bank of the Rio
Grande on the American side, about
three piles west OF this city.
The exchange OF missiles occupied
about Is minutes, during which
about 200 shots were fired. Accord
ing to Pascual Orozco, leader OF the
insurrectos, his men fred only so
OF these. He declared that the fed
erals got away so fast that they were
out OF range before more could be
fred at them.
Tonight the federals are behind
the walls of the cathedral of Guade-
loupe, the barracks and the buIlring
OF Juarez, across the river from here.
Orozco remains in possession of
the position which he occupied at
noon and held against the federal ad-
vance. He declared in an interview
with the Associated Press cor
respondent that he firmly intends to
attack Juarez, but that he awaited
the arrival OF General Blanco with
800 men. He said that he looked
for the latter at any moment.
Orozco's present force In the vicin-
lty Of Juarez numbers under 800
men-probably $50. OF these, 800
were with him in the skirmish this
afternoon. The federal force, by
actual count, numbered 1870 foot
soldiers and "a mounted infantry.
They took with them no artillery
and Orozco has none.
OroSco quit the ranch during the
forenoon and by moving through the
deep arroyos which scar the desert
everywhere, reached new position
on the hills along the river across
from the smelter. Here the cor
who had been on his
trail since daybreak discovered him.
He carried rifle, like his men.
He answered questions only after
elaboration and often evasively.
He was of no mind to betray his
plans. He borrowed some ink for
his fountain pen and also a writing
tablet. He expressed a wish to visit
El Paso to get square meal"

Steel Mills Show Activity.

New York-The steel companies are
inclined to make much of the fact that
mill operations have increased from s
to 10 per cent since the low point in
December. The larger new orders and
specifications have increased actively.
The sheet and tin plate mills are oper-
ating slightly under 80 per cent Of the
capacity, the wire mills little over
80 per cent and the tube and bridge
shops about 70 per cent. Much Of the
increase has come from export trade.
