SOMETHING NEW.

Cuban Dish-Peel and slice four
Bermuda onions into cold water. Leave
them there half an hour and dry them
well by laying them in a cloth Have
ready in a deep saucepan dozen ripe
tomatoes sliced thin, heat them slowly
while you fry the onions in butter to
a light brown. When the tomatoes
are soft and thoroughly heated, season
with salt a teaspoon of sugar and a
few dashes of paprika. Add four young
okra pods, canned will do, sliced thin,
bring to the boiling point and add the
fried onions, cook fast for Is minutes

ander and return to the fire In deep

RISE OF THE POPOVER.

There are some places in our coun-
cry made famous by the wonderful
breakfast cakes like muffns and pop
overs. The secret of success in any
line Is painstaking care and she or he
who gains a reputation in any line Is
one who not only does things well, but
does them a little better than anybody
else There is real skill in the making
and baking of a good muffin and pop
over. In the popover we want some
thing entirely different from the tex
ture of the muffin. The inside Of the
popover is hollow or made up Of very
large bubbles, so we must remember
mix them, as the popover uses the
eggs solely for the tightening. In all
cakes in which eggs are used for the
tightening the oven should be slow.
With popovers it is extremely essen
tial for their perfection that the oven
should be slow at first. AS the pop
over batter is thin, if heat is applied
too rapidly at first the mass begins to
expand quickly and the mixture being
SO thin the walls of the air cells burst
and the popover refuses to pop. Have
the oven so slow that the popovers
rise very slowly the first 20 minutes.
Popovers-Take three eggs, a pint
Of milk and a pint Of flour, sifted be-
fore measuring and a teaspoonful of
salt. Grease nine deep cups or muffin
pans; this is another point not usually
followed; shallow gem pan will not
do, the deep granite cups make the
best popovers; they will then rise to
inches high Break the eggs into a
bowl without separating the yolks
from the whites, beat just enough to
mix thems then add the milk. In a
second bowl have the flour and salt
and add the egg mixture slowly, beat
, ing well until smooth. Strain through
a sieve and put into the cups, they
Should be two-thirds full They will
be done in so minutes and should be
as light as feather when lifted. The
interior is always slightly moist and
they should be, served without being
piled on one another.
Cold popovers may be opened like
cream puffs and flied with any desired
| filling, then served as a dessert or for
child's lunch. If filled with a good
custard this is a most desirable des-
sert for children.

Edgar G. Mills, now a candidate for
one of the Judges of the Supreme
Court of the State of Washington,
was born in Wisconsin and has been
in the general practice of law for the
past twenty-eight years. He has never
been an attorney for a railroad or a
combination of any kind
Mr.. Mills, early in life, was elected
to the lower house Of the Wisconsin
legislature and the next year he was
indorsed by his and adjoining counties
for congress, but lost the nomination
by a narrow margin. Four years after
this he was elected to the state SEN
ate, receiving 5000 votes to his op-
ponents 600. He was a member of
the senate when Bob LaFollette was
elected governor and was very active
in securing advanced legislation, max
ing a speciality of labor legislation. 1t
was his bill that resulted in the in
creasing the taxes of railroads several
million dollars and decreasing other
property proportionately.
At the close of Mr.. Mills legislative
experience he was appointed United
States government attorney under the
Roosevelt administration. which posi-
ton he filled for over eight years and
tried many important cases, some of
which involved over $4,000,000, and
covered the broadcast scoop of the
law.
When Mr.. Mills quit his position of
government attorney he came direct

TRUTH EMBEDDED IN LAW.
Labor of Man Is Not Commodity
or an Article Of Commerce.

Labor of a Man Is Not a Commodity
or an Article Of Commerce.
To Senator Cummins of Iowa belongs
the honor of originating this sentence
which by the action of the senate now
introduces section of the new anti
| trust bill:
1.-THE labor of human being is not
a commodity or an article of COM
merce."
The purpose of congress is to protect
labor unions and farmers organizations
from summary condemnation under the
antitrust laws. In their case, as in
that of corporations, there must be
proof of crime before there can be con-
viction, and no injunction shall be is
sued forbidding individual members
from lawfully carrying out the legiti
mate objects Of their organizations.
When section Z, often referred to as
''labors bill of rights" passed the
house it was highly Objectionable for
the reason that it made no distinction
between unions acting lawfully and
unions acting unlawfully. The senate
amendments have safeguarded that
point perfectly but of even greater i'm
portance they have introduced into fed
eral law an idea that fittingly supple
ments the emancipation proclamation
and the thirteenth amendment
Labor was a commodity and an arti-
Gle of commerce when it was bought
and sold under cover of the common
law, as in the case of indentured serv-
ants when it was trafficked in by whole
sale between nations, states and indi-
viduals, as in African slavery; when
shiploads of coolies were brought to
this country in practical bondage; when
peonage was established in various
parts of the United States; when the
children of the republic were exploited
in the mills, and when great employers
imported thousands of workingmen to
take the place of higher priced labor.
These infamies have all been stopped
by law, but it remained for the present
Democratic senate, under the leader
ship of Republican, to put into a few
simple words the rule which has guild
ed us. 1t is more than a rule, more
than a sentiment and even more than
principle. 1t is an invincible truth
as deadly to the mummers of so called
political economy in the books as to in
humanity and greed in action.-New
York World.
