Out here in the "Wild and
Woody west'' we no doubt do
some thing which shock the
dignity of our etfete brethren
of the east, but when it comes
to corruption in politics we
are just simply not in it with
the digniiied fasteners. The
conditions which have been
brought to light in Adams
county, Ohio, since the No
vember election, are appalling.
Just think of it, more than
1900 men in that county have
been fined and DISTINGUISHED
for "A period of five years for
selling their votes. Among
that number are several min
listers of the gospel and scores
Of men who were pillars" III
their respective churches, but
they apparently looked upon
the bartering of their votes
as being no more OF a crime
than they would the selling
of any article of produce.

Cookery

Good Sauces.

There is hardly any branch of cook
cry which does the cook more credit
than the preparation Of good sauces.
To obtain the best results she must
study the art both in theory aud IN
practice. A cook who can Nuke good
sauces is never at loss in cases OF
emergency, for delicate sauce is capa-
BILE Of converting plain dish OF either
fish, flesh or fowl into dainty entree
and plainly cooked vegetable into .
high class entremets de legume.
In many households the preparation
Of such simple" sauce as plelted
butter Is left to an ordinary maid, and
the result is often a compound which
more closely resembles underdope
paste than sauce blanche, It Is the
little details OF the kitchen-of which
the sauce in question Is good exaD,-
pie which bring, diseredit or the re-
verse on both mistress and cook. When
properly made melted butter is one Of
the most useful sauces prepared In a
modern kitchen, owing to the variety
Of which 1t is capable. The failure in
making it is usually due to the fact
that an entirely wrong method is
adopted, which admits Of insufficient
cooking Of the -four and a too scanty
supply of butter.

Matted Butter,

To make melted butter sauce put
into q saucepan two ounces Of butter,
and when it has melted. add by de.
grees one ounce of -four 6hd stir with
wooden spoon until smooth paste
il formed, taking care that the roux
acquires no color. Pour in by degrees
half pint Of warm milk or milk and
wafer, working the mixture quickly
all the time with the spoon. Place the
pan Oh II hot part Of the stove. SO that
the sauce may boil UP, and continue
to stir until 1t is thick and creamy;
then add salt and pepper aud let it
simmer for ten minutes. Pour 1t
through fine stralner into II hot
sauce boat and just before serving add
a small piece Of fresh butter, stirring
1t lightly into the sauce. In the event
of the sauce being required for FISH,
fish broth which has been favored
with vegetables and herbs may be
used with advantage In place of the
milk, but In this case a tablespoonful
or two of cream should be added the
last thing.

IoIlandaise Sauce.

There is no sauce which gives more
decided piQuancy to dish than well
made hollandaise. There are several
ways of preparing it. but to make hol

not very easy one. The following Is

the side of the stove. where the heat
Is only very moderate, and poor IN

no portion of the white adheres to
them) and stir with a wooden spoon,
watching the eggs closely. and direct
ly they show signs of thcsening take
the pan at once from the stove and stir
in quickly one ounce Of fresh butter
When 1t has quite melted place the pan
again on the stove, but only for few
seconds. to reheat the mixture, then
take 1t of and add another ounce Of
butter, and when it is worked iu re-
heat as before and continue in the
same way until four ounces Of butter
have been amalgamated with the yo:kS
of the eggs. After adding the secOaG
and third portion of butter pour in a
dessertspoonful of cold water, and
when the last ounce of butter has been
stirred in add another dessertspoonful
Of water, SO doing viii make ,the
sauce less liable to eurdle. When
ready the sauce should be. OF the same
