Rural Echoes

| These words, borne from far Montpelier
| Echo lightly among our hills,
There is not enough cash in State Golfers
| 70 meet all of Our incoming bills"
The farmers who hear this mulmur.
Have lately their taxes paid;
| And these words would be more welcome
"All expense will be fully betrayed"
They are proud of their State and its
mount aims,
And had hoped ere all funds should sink
TO see trails mid it's health-giving forests
Made smooth as a skatng-rink'
That its fores be tree from the hedgehog,
That animal fierce and wild,
Ere it frightened the summer boarder,
Or harmed tue tourists Guild.
They would fain see bronze or marble
Marking each historical spot,
And impossible streams have bridges
Which decay and crumble not.
Thev would have ouly "re5istered' trout
fry
InhaUlt their mountain streams;
They would Danish the buzz ny mosquito,
That disturber of summer dreams.
They hail the glad tidingS that stable
floors
soon must St6llIlZeu De eaCn morn,
Aud Old brindle be given IA foamy bath
When needful, from hoof o horn.
And that saucy aud meddlesome microbes
Mustlno longer farm premises haunt;
Sanitation is now the watchwOrd
In the rural homes of Vermont.
They would have in each town aiakelet,
Where no sewage" could ever float,
And moored by each cottage along its
shore
A beautious painted boat.
IT'S grevous that lack of money
A staunch legislature should daunt,
When all are so ready and eager
For the New and Greater Vermont"
Oh, farmers sometimes you are weary,
And oftimes your garments are old;
Perchance the prospect seems dreary
And your purse lightly weighted with
gold,
Yet you smile with the utmost patience
While the law makers legislate;
And cheerfuHy pay, when abs over,
Your share of the freight"
You honor YOUR absent statesmen
Toiling long mid the capitoPs hum
And will welcome their final homecoming
With Joyous and thankful "Well Done!'

Alma Tadena's House,

According to the London Globe the
efforts to acquire Alma Tadema' s
house as a national possession were
never very energetically supported,
doubtless owing to the non-success
that attended previous attempts in
the case of other artists of note.
1t is, therefore, not surprising to
hear that they have failed, and that
the house will shortly be offered for
sale by public auction. 1t is much to be
hoped, says The Globe, that this may
not lead to it's dismantling, but that
it's purchaser may be one who will be
able to afford to retain in stu the dec
orations which were so redolent of
the artist, including those in the little
auto-chamber gallery Of pictures by
all the best of his contemporaries-ex
changes for works from his own brush.

TIPS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.

| When boiling caulifloWer, place it in
the boiling water head down; it will
come out much winter than if exposed
to the air.
In giving an alcohol bath to pa
tient, an old toilet water bottle is
useful to hold the alcohol as the shak'
err cork allows only few drops to fall
at time, and the other hand is free
to massage.
A nice salad dressing and one easy
to prepare is this: Mix a tablespoon
full of sugar with two of milk or
cream; add two tablespoonfuls of vim
egar a pinch of salt and pepper. A
little celery salt is an addition when
used with cabbage.
The care of pillow cases, towels,
napkins and sheets.-When putting
away the freshly-ironed ones, put
them at the bottom of the pile, and in
this way, as they are used from the
top, they will get equal wear.
When washing unbleached muslin,
do not rinse in bluing water, as 1t
will make it dark,
Cook prunes, peaches, apricots and
all dried fruits in bean pot with
sugar and water while baking. The
long, slow cooking develops flavor.
The skins of dried peaches are cas-
lily removed after they are soft.
Sandwich bread is so much nicer If
baked in pound baking powder cans.
There is no crust and they need no
shaping.
Nicely Drowned rolls followed out
make good receptacles to hold any
cream chicken, oysters or vegetables.
Baking powder can covers are often
obstinate about coming off. Roll the
can under the hands to loosen the
cover.
A plate or application can be made
hot quickly with a wire broiler held
over a lamp.
Rubbers will be given a longer life
IL the heel is lined with a heavy
piece of broad cloth glued in, or a
piece from the side of an old rubber
may be used.
The flaps of unsealed envelopes
make handy markers for different

Food Specialist
MoNoDlET AND DIGESTION.

Professor GoodfeIIow, the
weii-known English authority on
bread, says that when milk is
eaten with bread, the digestion
of the bread is 10 per cent. less
complete. This would naturally
follow from the principles of
the monodiet already explained.
There are few better combina-
tons than bread and milk, but
no combination is perfect. Or.
Porter and others who have had
much experience with the milk
diet insist that for the best re-
suits nothing must be taken
with the milk. Those foods
should be combined which are
most compatible.

q. S. AID FOR POST ROADS
President Finley of Southern Railroad
Advocates Appropriation.

Washington.-The first meeting of tn.
JOINT congressional committee on fed.

was held here. Senator BoVrne of Ore

tion with the proposition were, w. w.
FINLEY, president of the Soutt1tn Rail-
way; Alfred Noble, "A civil edgr.eer Of
New York, and G. W. Cooley, stat, en-.
gneer of Minnesota.
President Finley expressed the belief
that an appropriation of $4,000, 900
would be enough to initiate the policy
OF federal aid. He thought the govern
ment should furnish half of the expense
OF builting roads, and that the federal
aid should be extended only upon roads
where there is large amount of traffic.
Mr.. Noble said that much of that
money now expended in highway con-
struction is wasted through LEX of COM
petent supervision.
Mr.. Cooley contended that no federal
aid should be given any state until il
has organized state highway commis-
sion.
