EXPLOSIVE PILLS.
Nitroglycerin for Seasickness-COr-
dite for Insomnia.

Violent explosives as nitro
glycerin and cordite-are now recon-
mended to be swallowed like pills
of Turkish rhubarb for their medicin-
al value!
Il must have a sedative,' We shall
shortly hear in the clubs. And a
man may be seen calmly chewing A
piece of cordite-a sufficient guam
tity to blow a hole in two-foot wall!
DR.. Burnwinkel, famous profes-
sor of Nauheim, is responsible for
these startling ideas. He bodily rec
ommends nitroglycerin as cure for
seasickness.
The German professor advises
that the explosive be taken in soup
twenty drops of the stick nitro
glycerin in a quarter of pint of
thick soup or water.
At what particular times the ex-
plosive mixture is to be taken is not
known.
Some further interesting details
of the sc of explosives as medicines
were given to the London Daily Mir
ror by we'll known scientific expert.
"Nitroglycerin is quite colorless
jelly with a sweet aromatic taste.
1T is given in small doses as
heart stimulant. DR.. Burwinkel has
no doubt discovered that it is an eX-
cellent cure for seascikness, too.
"Cordite, the fibrous, cotton-like
explosive largely used in modern
warfare and in blasting, is, I have
been informed, splendid remedy for
insomnia.
British soldiers are said to have
discovered the strong sedative effect
of cordite. 1t is claimed that an En-
glish Tommy suffering from sleep
lessness tore off a piece of cord!te,
and chewed and swallowed the fiber.
I'm few minutes he was asleep
just as if he had taken opium.
"Cordite is undoubtedly a good
sedative, either simply swallowed IN
it's raw. state or mixed with some
food. Butt don't recommend the
general public to try the experiment
without the consent of doctor.
"One would also be ill-advised to
try DR.. Burwinkel's recipe for sea-
sickness without the advice of doc
| tor.
"The explosiveness of nitroglyce.
rim may be tested by placing thin
layer of the substance on hard sur
face and striking it with hammer.
A tremendous explosion will ensue
"At the present time the public
/ would have great difficulty in buying
these explosives.
I'm the future, however, if their
| medicinal value is found to be eX'
CSQtlOudllS Sooo, ~ AA@y w PoSS~
to obtain doses of the explosives in
the form of cachous or pills.
"A patient suffering from seaslck'
ness would after a weeks diet OF
nitroglycerin have sufficient explos-
ives in him to blow up modern slz-
ed house.
But l think that once mixed with
water the nitroglycerin inside the
| body would be as harmless as treacle
so far as explosives are concerned.
The only danger would be in safe
" consuming the substance. Act
ing as a violent irritant poison to the
stomach, the nitroglycerin, as Dr.
Burwinkel has found, would proba-
bly, counteract the pains of seaslck-
ness

FARMERS HAVE SPOKEN.

With the tarif as the big issue of the fall campaign the democrats are going to make a stronger effort than ever for free trade and their standard bearer is noted free trader The democratic platform refers to the farmer as the great sufferer from the tarin. The votes of the farmers are needed but it is hardly probable that any such bid will make good. The Springfield Union figures it out that the democrats will experience con siderable difficulty in convincing the farmer that he is injured by protection. If free trade is such good thing for him. how does it happen that our agri- cultural interests were almost unit in opposing reciprocity with Canada? The prospect of the free admission of farm products in some cases and the lowering of duties in others caused mighty protest from our agriculturists a protest that was voiced by represen- ratives and senators. regardless of party, from all the great farming Rtates. They said that the farmers were getting little enough as 1t was. and that any reduction in duties. any dimlnution in the protection they re- ceived. would be attended with disas- trous consequences. Yet our farmers would have had 10 meet only the com petition of Canada. What do you think of having to meet the competi- ton of the entire world, as the demo- crats propose?"
 The farmers are not going to be mis- led by any such free trade bidding as the democrats are making They will stand for a proper downward revision of the tsriff. but their attitude on Canadian reciprocity has been too clearly demonstrated to say nothing of wide open door.

MINISTER'S VACATIONS.

The action taken by the Springfield Ministers Association in adopting a schedule of dates when they expect to be al home during the months of July and August indicates that in that city as well as many others difficulty has been experienced in securing the serv- ices of clergymen during the vacation period. The statement from the assO- citation says a list has been prepared
 showing when certain of the city clergy expect to be at home in July and August with the assurance that they will promptly respond to any call that may be made upon them for their services It is often that at funerals or other pastoral services their pres snce is necessary. but 1t has been lound that all were out of town not Tor the summer but just at the time when wanted
 The ministers are entitled to their vacation and when there are no as- sistant pastors many congregations are without the services of their clergy men. By the arrangement of the Springfield association this situation is overcome and 1t Is possible to know in advance who can be depended upon. Arrangements are made for the Sun day and midweek services by the se- curing of supplies in case of vacations Norwich has many clergymen without charges, so that it is less liable to occur here, but even then there is un- certainty and nothing serVae like an arrangement whereby those who want he services of the ministers can reach them.

ALLEGIANCE TO PARTY.

That is a perfectly frank and sen sible statement made by Senator Cum mins of Iowa, one of the progressive candidates for presidential honors at the hands of the republicans in na- tional convention, when he said, in de- claring his allegiance to the republican party that Bosses cannot be escaped by the organization of new parties. There always have been and there all ways will be bosses In every political party whether they are wanted or not, and Senator Cummins recognizes that the proposed third party, If organized, will start off well supplied with bosses and directed by the king of them.
 It is within the organization of the republican party that Senator Cum mins and others progressively inclined. to a greater degree than the rank and file can do their best work. The party is given to progress and has always been. It is represented by President Taft in that capacity, but the con tention is that there is a wide differ ehce between progressiveism and radi- calism. A review of the measures put through by the president Is only needed to show that he is a wise and sane progressive, to say nothing about those for which he stands in the ad- ministratlon of the country.
 The attitude of Senator Cummlns is felt by many others in the republican party who desired Rooseveit's nomi- nation. They are, however, fiocking to the support of the president, who will retain the full confidence of the majority of the voters of the country.

DAINTY RUFFs.

No one feels perfectly dressed with out having a ruff or boa of some kind. Feathers are the favorite material and ostrich feathers the favorite sort. Smartest of all is the little round ruff which merely encircles the front tostie at the left side with few ends of vel vet or satin ribbon.
 It gives finish that might otherwise be lacking to a simple costume.
 It is very pretty when the feathers of this ruff match those in the hat, but when the temperature is very high it Is impossible for some to wear any thing so warm as feathers around the throat, and the chilly ones are regard ed with envy by those who boil on the slightest pretext.
 Some of the turned down collars are very deep this season and take more the form of fichus. The collarette is quite the craze of the moment. It is in feather, sewn at either side of a folded stock. It fRstens at the side with ends short or long, according to fancy, falling over the left shoulder.

RESTORE EARLY c. V. TRAIN.

Every community realizes the im- portance of it's business interests when it comes to deal with the many com ptex questions necessarily encountered in its makeup. This is the situation which now confronts the towns along the line of the Central Vermont road in this state. The company has with drawn it's firsst train in the morning after having been run for fifty years. IL is upon this train that the business houses and factories rely for despatch ing their goods and sending their sales men into territory not otherwise reached. No train takes the place of the one withdrawn and the business which would be done thereby must wait anywhere from four to twenty four hours. Expresses which cater to through travel to Canada have been put on at the expense of local service.
 In appearing before the public util- tiles commission a Hartford tomorrow in protest against the removal, many manufacturing and business centers along the line will be represented. The value to many thousand people in mail service not only of the cities and bor- 0ughs but Of the rural delivery routes, he loss in business to dealers and the failure 10 give the accommodation to Inc travelling public within the borders of this state should be impressed upon he commission and doubtless will be 1y the many affected interests which will be represented. The train may not be the best paying one that the road operates, but the company has lost more money by failure to better it's passenger accommodations than it has nv this early train.

IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN

We are apt to call narrow, ignorant outburst of conscience good. Speaking of some religious crank, or some little soul that has been swept away by the mob-rush to some new fad, or some vicious perverted life that fourishes one little moral excellence, we say that such a one is good. The grafter who is kind to the poor. the boodler who keeps his promises, the burglar who does not use tobacco, the hard-hearted, pig headed. close-flsted old sknfiint who never indulges in profane language, We think they ought to have a good mark.
 There is nothing more deceptive than a little fragment of morality which an otherwise immoral soul borrows like d peacock feather 10 strut with.
 Real goodness that which is of any mortal account to ones self or to others, k the product of the sum total of all one Is, does. says and thinks. It Is the flavor of the man, his entire per sonaiity. Goodness Is the fruit of life, not something to be picked up and worn on the coal.
 Great moral energy says Herbart '1s the result of broad views, and of whole unbroken masses of thought"

LEssENINe THE ICE BILL.

So many housewives are denied the comfort, or. more properly, the luxury, of ice that a few simple methods for keeping the butter and milk cool are gratefully received. Many times ice is a luxury for economical reasons. Again, it is a comfort because, though the pocketbook would cover the ex- penses of a refrigerator, the housewife is so far from the base of supplies that she Is unable to obtain reliable deliv- cry.
 One of the most successful of the i'm provised cooling compartments is a large flower pot of the ordinary clay variety. Seal the holes in the bottom of the pot with plaster of paris. Have the sealed pot large enough to contain the milk bottle and a small crock of butter Cover 1t with a crockery top that fits well into the top. Fill it with water to a depth such as will just es- cape reaching the top of the butter cock or the milk bottle Place 1t in the open air where the sun will not strike it, but where 1t will be in the way of a breeze.
 The evaporation on the outside of the porous pot keeps the contents firm and sweet much longer than they would be otherwise. The stronger the breeze the cooler will be the effect, owing to accelerated evaporation.
 A clever housewife has devised a basement cellarette of which she Is pardonably proud. En a cool corner of her cellar she had a trench three feet long. 20 inches wide and 10 inches deep. This trench is lined with ce- ment composed of one part cement and five parts sand, the wall being an inch thick on both sides and bottom Over this was fitted a wooden lid which allowed no warm air to penetrate into the cellarette. The idea Is one worthy of adoption by those who cannot af- ford or are unable to obtain ice

MEXICO FEDERALs GAINING.

With the trouble subsidlng in Cuba, the national conventions over and lit- tie interest in the August convention which is being advertised, the MeKi- can Federals are making such progress that there is promise of the rebels be- ing so badly beaten as to crush the rebellion Much encouragement can naturally be felt by the government forces by their steady advance against the forces of Oroczo The retaking of the city of Chihuahua and other points held by the rebels marks the steady progress of the federal troops. The rebel forces are in desperate straits but powerlesss against the larger army under better generals It will mean some hard fighting yet be- fore the revolutionists are forced to surrender. Orozco is prepared for any thing to obstruct and hinder the gov ernment forces, but 1t is very much doubted if he will attempt to come across the Texan border however des- perate his situation.
 All talk of intervention has passed. Mexico is demonstrating that she is able to take care of her own trouble and recent successes point to an early end to the trouble. While this coun- try never seriously considered inter vention, there are some who would have had the president jump across the border with the troops. When this country demanded the protection of the American citizens by both sides 1t spoke plainly and 1t was needed. President Taft acted wisely.

PERFUME IN WAX.

For pertaining lingerie, gloves. dresses and all the other dainty be- longings of woman a new sachet has been devised which contains the i'm prisoned fragrance of thousands of blossoms. This novel sachet is made of wax tinted the color of the flower whose perfume it emits. and the cake lasts indefinitely. The perfume is de- licious and delicate, and if at any time 1t becomes too faint the wax exterior can be scraped off ever so lightly, when the sachet will grow stronger. The sachets are sold in these different odors: Red rose, violet, heliotrope lilac carnation, corylopsis, lavender and san dalwood. Each cake is wrapped in a satin cover and placed in an orna- mental box.

CUTS OF BEEF.

The price of meat depends on the cut; forequarter is cheaper than hind quarter on the average The most de- sira6le cuts are porterhouse and sirloin steaks and loin roasts. The flesh of these cuts is tender and of fine flavor. The trump furnishes a good roast: the brisket is good for roasting if baking is carefully done; if pot roasted it is not a cheap cut, if the per cent. of waste is considered. Round is probably the cheapest cut if one considers actual food value; it Is used for pot roasts, praised beef and hamburger steak. If chopped and properly brotled it makes a very desirable substitute for the hieh priced steaks.

LIQUID CLEANER.

The following Is a simple, lnexpen- sive liquid which can be used for cleaning colored silk shirtwaists, blouses and delicate scarfs without in turing them in the least: Crate two good sized raw potatoes into a pan of water Strain the mixture through a sieve into another vessel holding the same amount sf water. Let the second liquid stand until it has settled. Pour off the clearer part of the liquid and rub or sponge your garment-the lat ter is preferable. Then wash the ar ticle in water, dry and iron it. The thick sediment left after the settling can be kept and used to sponge heavier fabrics.

For cleansing kid gloves. leaving them soft and odorless, shave half a bar of some pure white laundry soap into pint of soft water and set on the range to melt (not to boiD. When thoroughly dissolved strain the liquid soap through fine sieve or muslin cloth into jar or jars, and let stand until cold. When strained it should not be thicker than thin cream. Then put the glove on the hand. dip a clean cloth in the soap jelly and rub the glove with 1t. Continue doing this as long as the cloth shows soil, and the glove will be clean, uninjured, flexible and odorless, and can be used at once. Try this next time instead of gasoline.
