SOME KITCHEN HINTS
woRTH BEING po3TEo WHERE
THEY CAN BE SEEN.
Some Objections That are Household
Wore, and Seine That Set Forth
icc-s Thst ere New and
Valuable.

Here are a few rules that It would
be well TO cut on: and paste Up in your
kitchen. They are hints about affairs
Of that very important region OF the
home
l. Wash a saucepan in plenty OF
hot water; but never wash cake tins
or frying pans Wine them well with
q pi-c. oil paIer, which is afterward
burned and polish them with a cry
cloth
2. Stand saucepan. FISH kettles, ETC.,
in front OF he Ere for few minutes
after washing them so that they may
be thoroughly dried inside. This
makes them last longer and helps to
keep them in good condition.
3. Pudding cloths. jelly bags and so
on should be well washed, scalded and
hung up to dry. 1t is not necessary
to iron them, but they should be
smoothed and folded before they are
replaced in the drawer
4. Add a little soda to the water in
which you wash plates and dishes.
The soda loosens the grease on them
and gives the china good shiny sur
face.
8. Never add soda to the water in
which you wash sitter Use a wooden
tub, with plenty of hot water and soap.
and dry the articles with a soft cloth.
If silver is carefully washed and dried,
once a week will be found often
enough to clean it with powder and a
leather. Silver should be kept in a
baize lined drawer or basket, for If it
is laid on hardwood it is apt to be
scratched
6. Never put the handles of knives
into hot water or they will split. If a
knife has been used for cutting onions
or any other strong-scented vegetable
dig the blade of it once or twice into
garden mold to remove the smell be-
fore it is washed
7. If pan is burned or blackened
rub the inside of it with hard crust
of bread dipped in salt and afterward
wash it with hot soda and water
s. Be very careful to keep the lids
of saucepans clean, for the flavor of
one dish may cling to a lid which has
not been washed and spoil a second
dish which is prepared in the same
pan.
8. After washing up wipe out the
dish tub and allow it to stand by the
fire till it is dry. The dishtub should
be scrubbed with boiling water and
soap at least once & week.

GOVERNOR ON
 MILEAGE CASE
Says AttOrney-Generafs 0pin-
 ion Will Shorten Sessions.
THE RATE IS FIXED BY LAW
Legality of Railroads Bill for Balance Claimed for Members of General Assembly Was Doubted
 and Held Up.

Special Hartford Correspondenee)
 Hartford-Gov. Simeon E. Baldwin was asked why he had asked Attorney General Light for an opinion as to the constitutionality of the law authoriz- ing and directing the state controller to furnish the members Of the leglsla- ture with mileage tickets. He replied as follows:
 "A bill for several hundred dollars was presented to the board of control by the New Haven road for balance due as claimed by it on contract made with the controller. This con tract was to furnish mileage books to each member of the general assem- ply in exchange for an assignment of mileage at the rate fixed by the con stitution. l had grave doubts whether the statute authorizing the contract was not contrary to the constitution and before passing upon he bill in the board l asked the attorney to give his official opinion as to whether the con tract was authorized The opinion of the attorney general is accepted as law in regard to any matter of statutory construction by the executive officers of the state.
 When asked what effect this would have on an extra session. Gov. Bald win said;
 The constitution provides speeifi- cally for that The members of the general assembly shall receive one mileage each way for the regular ses- sion, at the rate of twenty-five cents 8 mile and also one other mileage at the same rate for attending any extra session called by the governor As matter of fact under the statute now declared unconstitutional. he has been receiving a good deal more. 1 think the result of the opinion Of the attor- ney general will be to make future ses- sions shorter than some have been in late years and that l think, was the intention of the constitutional amend ment adopted in 1884, which governs the question"

 And ten seconds later she was lost in the crowd, and the angel-doctor and Miss Hilda Fitch stood face to face. They were penned in. They had to lean against a showcase and hold their own. They had to talk and say things, and by and by the angel-doctor had to help select the presents for the Sunday school chil- dren and to help Miss Hilda through the jam to taxi, and-and-

Eqqs Still Dear.

The grangers are fighting manfully to keep up the price of eggs of the fine quality, but it is wearing on them Despite all they can do, the same sort of eggs are being offered in one store for fifty-two cents, and the dealer says, that if there is no change in the weather he will make it fifty cents a dozen.
 q may make it forty-eight," he says. "as l always like the unit schedule and four cents apiece seems enough if you can squeeze through at all" There was suspicion that tho cold weather might keep the high price on eggs sixty cents, at least, un- til Dec 28, as there is rarely any drop fin eggs during the last two weeks of December.
