Could Not Decide Upon the Manner In
Which tho Presidents Inability to
Perform His Duties Should
BE Declared.

William Window, federal represen-
tative and senator from Minnesota,
one of the early advocates of recipro-
city and the gold standard. and candi-
date for the Republican presidential
nomination in the three national con-
ventions of the party held In the
twelve years beginning with 1880, was
also secretary of the treasury In two
cabinets-Garfield's and Benjamin Har-
rison's.
About a year before Mr.. Window re-
turned to Washington as a member Of
President Harrison's official family.
he spoke at length to me of his recol-
lections of the period when his, first
presidential chief lay desperately Ill.
and his cabinet was In daily doubt
whether the president would survive
the wound, or die.
Many were the incidents connected
with Garfeld's illness that impressed
me greatly" said Senator Window.
"but the one that left with me the
most vivid impressions occurred the
latter part of July. or 1t may have been
about the first week in August.
Ou may hcluchDCl ga
through the presidents illness the
members of his cabinet remained con-
stantly in Washington. We had many
informal discussions as to what our
duty was under the circumstances,
and upon one occasion Mr.. Blaine, the
secretary of state, said to two or three
of us that he was anxious to discuss
with us personally and unofficially
what seemed to him to be very i'm
portant contingency that might arise.
He then went on to say that he had
been reading the clause in the Con-
stitution which defined the office and
responsibilities of the president. and
that he had been trying to discover
some precedent, or at least hint, in
the discussions that took place In the
convention that framed the Constitu-
tion which might serve as guide to
the cabinet should 1t have to face the
contingency that he had in mind.
81 asked Mr.. Blaine IL he had
reference to the clause in the Constr
tuition which declares that in case OF
the death or disability of the president
to perform the business of his office,
the vice-president shall assume Office.
1 remember perfectly Mr.. Blaine's re-
ply, which followed a grave nod of his
head.
1--we have had two cases where this
clause of the Constitution has applied
he said. Each of them. however, was
a case involving the death of a presi-
dent. 1t was the unquestioned right
of the vice-Dresident to succeed, al
though l have learned that at the time
of John Tyler's accession there were
many who thought he should sign him

TO MAKE PEANUT BUTTER
Way by Which Tendency to stick to
Roof Of Mouth May Be
Removed.

Mhny persons have formed dislike
for peanut butter because OF its ten
dency to stick to the roof of the mouth.
This objection may be entirely sur
mounted by spreading ordinary butter
first on the bread and then spreading
on thin layer of peanut butter. pla-
cling another buttered with ordinary
butter) slice of bread on top. This
makes a most delicious as well as nu-
tritious sandwich.
Peanut butter should be stirred often
In order to mix the oil and the peanuts,
so that when the bottom of the jar is
reached all the oil will not have been
used.
1t might be mentioned also that pea
nut butter can now be purchased much
cheaper In bulk and by placing II in
ordinary jelly jars 1t will keep as well
and as long as that purchased in in
dividual sealed jars.

Cut Your Blankets.

Have you ever stopped to think how
unsatisfactory a double blanket is?
The summing and airing which all
woolen fabrics need frequently is
most inconvenient when a blanket is
uncut In washing, the weight causes
undue stretching In wringing and dry
ing. In varying the covering on a
bed, it is much better to be able to
add one thickness at a time. Single
blankets can be more easily stored in
summer In fact, there seems no more
reason why blankets should be kept
in pairs than towels-simply because
they are woven so! Yet so prevalent
is the unsanitary and uneconomical
habit, that a word of reminder from
an experienced housewife seems in
place.-Ladies' World.

One Vote Became a Majority

vote for Garfield with this temptation
before his eyes; that, in the event of
Garfield's election, Mr. Greer would
be appointed to an important position
in the treasury department. That is
to be Greer's reward" was the COM
mon saying; and following Garfield's
triumph at the polls, this opinion SEEM
ed to be justified when 1t was learned
that the new president had offered
Mr.. Greer the post of assistant secre-
tary of the treasury. But instead OF
accepting the offer, as it was common
ly believed he would, Mr.. Greer de-
clined the appointment, and when ask
ed for the reason replied:

pointment l could not afford to give
I'D my business or my association with
my bank"
Then it is not true that you went
to the Chicago convention determined
to support Garfield because you had
an ambition for an Office in the treas
ury?"
General Garfield did not know me;
l had never seen him until the Chi
cago convention was organized" was
the reply. 81 went to the convention
expecting fully to obey the instruc-
tions of my district convention and
vote for General Grant for president.
But VIXEN General Garfield made his
speech placing John Sherman in NOM
nation for president, l was so tre-
mendously impressed by the personal
ity. the magnificent physique. the su-
perb voice and the wonderful rhetoric
and eloquence of Garfield that l said
to myself, This man, In my opinion,
is the man who should be nominated
for president of the United States by
the Republican party backed that
opinion with my vote, even when l
received kilograms and powerful per-
sonal appeals urging me to change my
vote to General Grant; and as l con-
tinued to vote alone 1 grew more and
more convinced that my lone ballot
would eventually point the way to Gar
fields nomination.
IT was right in that belief. l have
never regretted my vote for Garfield.

How Abram s. Hewitt Demonstrated
to Steel Process Inventor That He
Had Divided His Wealth
With the Nations.

Sometimes the statement is made
when a man of great wealth dies, that
while he amassed millions for him
self, he enriched the world to a much
greater extent than he did himself.
And whenever / see this statement
made I always call to mind the anec-
dote that the late Abram S. Hewitt
told me of Sir Henry Bessemer.
Abram s. Hewitt is numbered
among New York's best and most
famous mayors. He was chairman OF
the Democratic national committee
that managed the Tilden presidential
campaign; his efforts as trustee and
secretary gave Cooper Union the
worldwide fame 1t enjoys today as an
educational institution, and for near
ly half a century Mr.. Hewitt was a
power in the iron and steel trade. AS
manufacturer he gained an en-
cyclopedic knowledge of commercial,
industrial and financial statistics not
only of his own time, but of earlier
times as well; and as an authority in

Take as much rice as you wish to

enough cold water to cover the rice;

when 1t begins to boil add just enough

minutes is sufficient. Let stand five
minutes longer and every kernel will
be dry and separate. Salt should
never be added while cooking it. as it
toughens rice. l have taken my les

and have for centuries back, they

which 1t is cooked.

GarfieId's Cabinet Puzzled

self "Vice-president, acting as pres
ident." There has never been case
when the question of the inability of
a president to perform his duties has
been raised. 1t may be easy enough
to determine whether a president is
completely incapable of performing
the duties of his office or not. That
can be established by medical author
ity. But who is to make the announce
ment? Who is to call upon the vice
president?
Then Mr.. Blaine went on to say
that in his opinion-and he presumed
in that of all of us-President Garfield
was totally incapacitated, and would
remain in that condition for some time,
even though ultimately he should get
well. Suppose then some great emer-
gency, like the imperative need OF Is
suing pardon, or warlike complications
should arise-an emergency which
called for the assembling Of congress.
Would 1t be perfectly within the mean
ing of the Constitution If the vice
president were called upon to act as
president? And Mr.. Blaine ended by
insisting that the cabinet should be
prepared for an emergency of that
kind.
THE result of this unofficial taking
of counsel was that the suggestion was
made that there should be informal
and purely personal consultation with
the attorney general. Wayne Mac
Veagh. Mr.. Blaine did broach the
subject to the attorney general, and,

How One Lone Delegate in Republican
Convention of 1880 Finally Brought
About Nomination of James
A. Garfield.

"Mr. Quay, you would put me un-
der a great obligation If you would
give me information respecting the
personality and purpose of that voci-
ferrous delegate from your state who
is casting the solitary vote reported
by the secretary of this convention for
James A. Garfield" said Roscoe Conk-
ling at the Chicago Republican con-
yention of 1880, to Matthew Stanley
Quay. the leader of the Pennsylvania
delegation.
81 can't explain, Senator" Mr.. Quay
replied. HE is delegate from the
Hazleton district, and he is disobey-
ing the instructions of that district,
which commanded him to vote for
the nomination of General Grant.
Why he is voting for Garfield don't
know. But it is only one vote, and
that doesn't mean anything"
Sometimes one vote becomes ma
tority vote" Senator Conkling an
swered, grimly.
And SO, curiously enough. 1t happen
ed in this case. The lone delegate
from the anthracite coal region OF the
keystone state cast his vote with
such unvarying regularity for James
A. Garfield that at last attention De-
came fixed upon the delegate and the
man he was voting for. and by one OF
those curious psychological moods that
often descend upon crowd, the name
of James A. Garfield fired the imagin-
alton of the delegates and the majority
vote Of the convention had been mucn
prolonged in a vain attempt to decide
upon one of the prominent candidates.

who. when he was elected a delegate
to the national convention. was pre-

sentiment of his district, which favor
