Mayor Gaynor.

Mayor Gaynor of New York has
been more or less prominently men
toned as one of the available men
for the Democratic nomination for
President. This is because he is re-
garded as man of force and charac-
ter and because he has attracted ma
tional attention as the Mayor of the
greatest city In the country in State
which has the largest electoral vote.
He does not, however, pose as can
didate, although, like any other man
who may be seriously suggested for
the high honor of a Presidential
nomination, he does not reject the
idea. Questioned the other day

''That the bridge, in its present
shape, is a menace to all who use it

In giving space to the letter OF

not vouch for the truth of his state

A judge in Chicago has refused
two divorces because in one instance
there had been an agreement be-

separate and in the other the hus-

costs.
In both cases the judge was right.

grounds as are mentioned In these
cases would make marriage mock.

PIckLiNG TIME.

Do not delay putting down some ten
der little cucumber pickles for winter
use. Here Is a recipe. easy TO pre-
pare. and most successful In results:
Mushroom catsup.-When mush-
rooms are plenty In the cool fall morn
ings. gather basket full. look them
over carefully to see that none are
wormy, and put them In a large
mouthed Jar in layers, with salt be-
tween. Don't be too generous with
the salt. or you will spoil the catsup.
Let them stand In warm place
twenty-four hours covered with tow
ell. The next day mash and strain
them through coarse sieve. To
every quart OF the liquor add an ounce
of pepper corns and cook half hour.
then add one-fourth Of an ounce OF
cloves, half an ounce Of ginger root,
one dozen whole cloves, three blades
OF mace and cook fifteen minutes.
Take from the fire and strain again;
,reheat, fill small bottles and dip the
corks In wax to seal The housewife
who does not feel that she can afford
to have these delicacies when bought
from the grocery, will be able. at lit
tile expense to put them up. have them
for herself and a few bottles for her
friends.
The canned sweet red pepper is
such an addition to so many dishes
and in the fall when they may be had
from your own garden few cans
will be easily put UP. This is tried
recipe of Miss Farmers, and one only
has to use the right proportions 70
