On the Face of Them Statistics Do Not Give Much Comfort to Abstainer. From the Bos-ton Transcript. We have not the figures at hand, but it w as shown by life insurance statis tics published ill (ireat Hritain a few years ago that total alstainers from intoxicating drinks were shorter-lived than the moderate drinkers among jmlicy-liolders: and now conies the Intel national Medi.nl Association with slalisti.-s in the same direction, but more startling. The Ossociutiou has made careful imiuiry r'' ".:s4 of deaths t f icrons of over .V years of av, and of all callings, which w ere di vid.tl into fivegrouis total ulistainers, moderate drinkers, drinkers who were careful not to drink too much, heavy drinkers and ex-cssive drinkers. The investigation show-d that the age reached in these five classes was al ways the shortest with the total al stainer; that they were shorter-lived even than the cxivssive drinkers. With regard to wine drinkers the re sults were: Moderate drinkers, i3 years; heavier but careful drinkers, 5S years; inteiiiien:te drinkers, ." years; excess ive drinkers, 2 years; alistainers, 50 years. It has Urn said that statistics can le made to prove anything you want to prove; but in this instance, as well as in the insurance figures, they seem to prove what tlmse colh-cting the statis-ti-s had no intention or desire to prove. It docs not lKH-essarily follow, however, that the use of intoxicants even mod erately, is conducive to longevity. The statistics only show that, w ith a g. m m1 constitution at the outset, one may attain to more advanced age than is reached by a jiersoti of feeble phy sique, though the latter lie a total al staincr; for we think it w ill lie found fmm olservation and inquiry that a very large projxirtion of the aljstainer arc abstainers kr.UK1 they saw in ear ly life that they were not physically strong enough to wrestle with King Alcohol, and another large class of non-drinkers are the sons of drinking parents whose sins, as well as their de terring example, have dcsceiidi'd to their children, and so shortened the hitter's lives. The statistics quoted are misleading, inasmuch as they do not show w hat the state of the health was in early life, and especially liecau-v they do not tell anything as to the habits of the parents of the individuals ill the several classes. A man may drink to exocsss, may lie intoxicated regularly every day, and yet live to lie an old man. but it will grenerally lie found that his ofispring are feeble, if not sickly, and of short life, notwithstand ing thev never drink a drop of "mtoxica- tinir liquor from first to last. .c:::titics are jioicnt helps toward the ihnion of jrr.'at social problems but w hen they seem to prove what is again-t common cxTiciice and against com mon sense it isln-st not to trust m them to -oiifi'lingly. The New Editor is Troubled. From tlieClik'ao Pist. The tsiitor of the future IHikel seri ous when the city editor entered in response to a hasty summons. She was walking up and down the room, her hands deep in her trousers pockets and her spectacle on top of her head. 'This strike seems to l leeoming serious,'' she said, as she picked up a citpy of that morning's edition of the paper and glanced at the head lines. "Very si rious," replied the city edi tor. "I understand the hod carriers have g ne out this morning." "Not one woman iu their union re mains at work," said the city editor. "How about the bricklayers?" "The hist woman quit at M oYlm " wh"!i the walking delegate gave the word." The managing editor shook her head. "Had: Very UuW the said. "I'm afraid we are in for a rough time of it. Has there lieen any violence yet'.''' "Well, Lieutenant Mary llrown and a squad of picked women had to charge on liiem at Mrs. Marker's new build ing on the West Side." "To(ih:..i: Too bad: Anyone hurt." "A couple of men and some children were knocked dow n and trampled ujt osi in the rush to get out of the way of the club--, but none of the rioters were hint." "That's always the way," said the managing editor, regretfully. "Why will men and children insist on hang ing around molts? They are always the ones who are hurt, and when the wom en sec tlc-ir husbands and little ones injur.-.! it makes them twice a hard to handle." "Chief of Police Jane Starr says that if it were not for the men there would lie ii trouble controlling the mob," suggested the city editor. "I i-upp so so. Men are always the hardest to handle at such times as these. They seem to lose their heads entirely, and then they can't l? treat ed like women. Tiiey rely on theirsex to protect tueiii, and do all sorts of things thai the women would not dare to d i. They know that no oiMccr would lie unworn inly enough to club them. I suppose they are urging the women on, too." "They are doing everything in their p iwvr to make the women frantic. They arc p.irading the streets with their children in their arms, calling upon the women to stand firm." "Poor, misguided creatures!" said the managing editor pityingly. "They will lie the first to feel the effects of thi folly, when the women have no waxes to bring home and the little larder empty. Il-twever, this is not the lime for sentiment. There is busi ness to lie atteud-il to. Who covered the strike yesterday?" "Miss Smith and Miss Jones." "They did first rate, but they should have help to-day.

"We had an interview with her in the paper this morning." "Have another. Ask her why she d-tcsn't ai-t with more firmness Ask her if she is trying to cater to the working women's vote. Put it to her g.d and strong. Ask her if she real izes that she is losing the confidence of the business women by her dilatori ness." "I will have Miss MctJrath do it. She understands the local political sit uation better than any one else in the office." "I wonder," said the managing edi tor, after the city editor had gone, "if this strike is likely to affect the press. women's union. We'd have a tough 1 time if our press women should walk out without notice." A few minutes later, however, she had dismissed the nubject from her ! mind and was deep on an editorial oa "The Sphere of tlie Advanced Man." A Chicago Vignette. The grave was more than two years old, yet every week throughout the summer the woman had pillowed her head on the grassy mound and had wept her heart out over the three feet of earth that covered the dust of her Uv. The chilling September wind blew down from the open stretch of country to the west and the low-hanging win jtoured out one parting flood of yellow light over the white, silent city as if it were endeavoring to warm into new- life the tired soul and lmd.y of I he wom an w ho alone remained in that corner of the burial ground. Jiy and by another U'lated visitor came over the crest of the hill that j slojied to the eiLst. He paused a nio-; ment when the woman's Mack-robed fiirure came in view, silhouetted . against the rich autumnal sky, then imiiellfd bv some vague, unanalysed chord of sympathy he left the wide driveway and struck into a bypath that led to the solitary mourner. She heard his approaching footsteps but she wanted to be alone, and did J not appear to lie conscious of his intru sion. He stood oetore nor ana iook on his hat reverently, as if in the presence of something sacred. "Ma'am," he said at length, respect fully. His coarse, strong voice was vibrant with a pitying understanding of her grief. It touched a responsive chord in her ow n heart, and she put back her veil and looked at him in silent ex jteotation of some comfort. There was nothing in his exterior to inspire con fidence. His clothes were coarse and much-worn and hung awkwardly on his gaunt, ungainly figure; his face, too, was coarse and rough, and his hands were large and hard; the voice alone, w ith its thrilling undertone, was expressive of" that innate tenderness that unconsciously sheds a halo round the plainest features. She did not speak, and again he took the initiative. "Your liaby, ma'am?" he said, pointing to the tiny grave. Her voice was choked with tears and she nodded an affirmative reply. "Iloy?" he questioned, timidly. She nodded again. "The only one, niaylie?" he hazard ed. "Yes." "Don't take on so, ma'am," he said, pleadingly, as she commenced to weep aloud. "He's liettcr off you know." She thing out her hands passionately. "Oh, don't come to me with such trite expressions of so-called consola tion," she cried. " 'I le's U tter ofi7 I heard that w hen he lay in his colli n and I've heard it ever- day since. Just as if I haven't sense enough to know that for myself.

Have you nothing liotter than that to say to me?" The vehemence of her reply amazed him and he looked at her for a time w ithout answering her last sharp ap )K al. "I'm sorry for you, ma'am," he said ut la-!, simply. "Hut there is jteaco and I ish you could find it." h, you're like all the rest," she cried.

Ori 'in of "Teetotaler." Dispatches recently mentioned the death at Troy, Pa., at the age of 02 of Itev. Joel Jewell, who is said to have originated the word "teetotaler." The story is ha at a public temperance meeting in Hec tor, X. Y., in l2s, he intr.tdueed into the pledge the letters "O. P." for "old pledge," which pledg ed against distilled liquors, and "T.," for "total," including Utth distilled and fermented liquors. When name were lieing taken a young man in the gallery said: "Add my name and a T.f for I am a T-totaler." Mr. Jewell adopted the word in speeches and writings Some four years later an Englishman named Di-k Turner employed tlie word, and its origin has been claimed for him. Mr. Jewell was Imrii in Dunham, Creene ounty, N. Y., February 11, 1SB, and became a revivalist and temperance worker at an early age. For over fifty years he was an active Presbyterian olergyinin, although not ordained until he was 40. Delicate and Proper Methods of Cooking Cabbage. Most people consider cabbage coarse, rank vegetable that it would be an absurdity to serve in a delicate sauce. ICesides its unpleasant odor the cabbage h:w acquired an unsavory roi utation from the fact that, as ordinari ly cooked, it is most indigestible. The beef and cabbage dinner of the New England farmer, as it is generally cook ed, is as unwholesome and is as extrav agant a waste of food values as cau lie instanced. The rich juices of the Itoef, if the moat has been corned, as it gen erally has lave lieen first drawn out in the salt and water and those are still further diminished by Itoiling in fresh water. This literally leaves only the fibres of the meat to lie served and the greater part of its nourishing qual ities are thus thrown away w ith the brine and pot of liquor. The cabbage has lieen cooked in its rank juices, which should have lieen extracted, making it coarse and indigestible, whereas it would have lieen a palatable as well as wholesome vegetable if it had been properly cooked. This rep resents the perversion of cookery. The first effort of the intelligent cook is to retain the juices of meat, while she blanches a great many vegetables in order to free them from these coarse juices and leave a delicate, d igistible pulp. These principles once understood, ihe main secret of the successful cook ing of meats and of vegetables is mas tered. Senile vegetables like corn or green jteas are so delicate in flavor, that they do not require blanching, but would lie injured by it; but others, like spinach, string lieans and notably all tlie eabliage family, must lie blanched. There are few vegetables more deli cious than a cabbage cooked in cream sauce. Take a medium-sized fresh head of white cabbage and cut it in quarters after removing the outer green leaves. Cut out the stem from the head and throw the eabliage into a kettle of Util ing water. Let it cook for ton minutes; thou remove it with a skimmer and put into cold water to cool. After this the unpleasant tdor so noticeable in looking cabbage disapjtcars. When the cabltage is cold chop it tiiie, season it with salt and pepier, and add two large tablespooufuls of butter, -mixed with an even tablespoon of flour and a pint of milk. Ix-t the eabliage sim mer slowly for three-quarters of an hour and then serve. Such a dish of cabbage served with a piece of fresh j lieef, braised with vegetables till it is thoroughly tender, gives a dinner an epicure might enjoy. The meat has had all its juices carefully saved by browning it in a small irtion of stock a process quite similar to roasting. By this iiieth.Kl all the liquor in which the meat is cooked is saved for the gravy. The farmer's jiot roast is simi lar to the French braise, and is a pro cess in every way superior to the ex travagant method of boiling meat, when the liest parts of the beef are soaked out ill the water. Another dainty and excellent way in which to cook a eabliage is to stuff it. Cut out the heart stein, with the root, of a medium sized head of cabbage, and remove the outer green leaves. Plunge the head into an abundance of Uiiling water for ten minutes, and then take it up very carefully so as not to break it. Let it cool. Piepare a forcemeat, using a iMtund of sausage meat with a quar ter of a jKunid of lean veal ground i.nd pounded to a paste. Some cooks use the sausage meat alone; only fresh "country sausage moat" can be used. Stuff the inside tf the eabliage and tie it up carefully, so that the stuffing will not come out. Put the cabluige into a braising a kettle, with a small carrot, a small white onion and a cup of stock, lift the cabbage simmer in the oven or on top of the stove, well covered for one hour, basting it occasionally. Serve it with a rich brown sauce. Xnv York Ti-ittin. Mr. J. K.

Cost of Egg Production Estimates have placed the cost of one dozen eggs at as high a figure as lc. but some experimenters find the cost tic. At the experiment station, where every jiound of food is weighed, and but little waste material can U used, the cost is greater than the average on the farms It has long lieen accepted among poultrynieii that five pocks of corn or wheat, or the equivalent there of, will maintain a laying hen one year. At present prices this would beaUuit (Vtoa year. We .do not lie lieve that the cost is so much when hens are on ranges, as they need little or no food in the summer. The prices of all kind of grain of course regulate the cost of egg, but in our experience the cost of ad-tzen eggs at present prices for feed, provided (and that is the main jxiint ) the hens are good layers, should not exceed Cm-.

The lady was making some remarks almut the kind of clothes some other ladies at church had on, when her hus band remarked : 'The finest garment a woman can wear is the mantle of charily." "Yes," she snapped, "ami it's altout the only one some husbands want their wives to wear." "An ounce of prevention is U'tter than a jMtnnd of cure."

She has a sphere of u.seful- ! ness from which the new woman is i barred. She cannot ride a bicycle ho well possibly, but that is not a particu I larly useful accomplishment, no matter - how much enjoyment there may lie in it. And to offset that the old fnshion- . cd woman has given an illustration of something she can do that is nearly as far beyond the new woman as it it U yoiid man. A boy in New York fell through the ojH'iiing in a fire escape landing at the fifth floor. An old fashioned woman was sitting on the steps below. The child caromed on the coping over the ' doorway and landed in the woman's lap. That saved his life, and beyond a bruise as the result of striking the cop ing he was unharmed. Of course the question immediate ly arises, of what use would a man have been under sueh circumstances? Clearly none. He has no lap. And of what use would a now woman in bloomers have lieen? Just as little and for the same reason. "How 's polities clown here?" 'They're hot and they're gel tin' hot ter, ami they're goin' to lie bilin'." "It's all on account of the money power 1 suppose."

The successful treatment of consump tion and by this is meant making the sufferer bettor able to bear his burden, if not actually lifting it from his shoul ders is largely a question of nursing. If the disease has already gained a foot hold medicine iu lu-t instances is of no avail except in postponing the evil day, and even if it were otherwise a few general rules would be just as essential to insure the comfort of the patient while recovery is going on. Iu the first place, then, we must un derstand exactly the condition of the consumptive, not so much by ascertain ing the location and extent of his disease as by familiarizing ourselves with his temperament, his likes and dislikes, and, above all, with his power of endurance and resistance. If we will bear these things in mind we may be ablo to do all that is possiula fur the sick one uaniely, to enable hiia to withstand the onslaught of the dis ease until nature shall gain the control ling hand. So successful is this method of treatment that it often results in a complete or at least a temporary cure. Consumption is ouo of the most de vitalizing of diseases, lip only does it attack the lungs, but the action of tho nervous system is sooner or later seri ously interfered with, the digestion im paired, and the simplest form of excite ment renders even the circulation of the blixnl dangerous from being overactive. We shall come nearest to strikiug at the root of all these troubles if we direct our energies toward limiting the fre quency and severity of the cough, and in this we have not only to follow the ad vice of the physician, taking care that his directions are exactly carried out, bnt we must givo careful attention to nursing. To prevent the first paroxysm of cough iug, which is usually incited in the morning by the exertion of rising, a warm cup of tea or an eggnog should be takeu before the patient leaves the bed. A glass of something warm, like hot milk or gruel, should also be taken be fore retiring, and plenty of time shoo Id be allowed in preariug for the bed The patient should sleep iu blankets, and a glass of warm drink should be placed within reach in case he should wake through the night. If the presence of food in the stomach causes the reappearance of the cough after mcaLs, some suitable preparation of pepsin should be used to hasten the digestion, and an hour or two's rest should bo taken immediately after the meal Youth's Companion. AN AVENUE OF IDOLS. A Double Row of Japanese Hutldhaa Which Cannot Be Counted. Close to this interesting pool is the avenue cf images, representing tho Ainida, Buddha. The idols vary in size, but ore similar iu design. There are sev eral hundred of them altogether, and they sit facing one another iu two long rows Yv'e asked the little Jap who brought us to the place how many o' them there were. In an awed whLspe. he replied, "Nobody knows" Then b told us how impossible it was to conn them. Each image was uiudo misightl by having numbers of little bits of mp stuek on to it and chewed bits of pap which had been spat at it The object this disfiguration we failed to discover, though our friend Hojo informed us they were imt on by the young priests, a part of whose novitiate it was to attempt to connt tho Budtllias. There is evidently something wrong with these idols, for no oue has ever been ablo to reckon them up the same tw ice over, in spite of sticking a piece of pajier to tick each one off. Of course two uusuiierstitious Englishmen were not to be humbugged by native ttories so M. (my traveling companion) and I, thinking tho whole thing ridiculous, de cided to count the mysterious im-gos. We started on co-ojs rative lines, each taking a side of the avenue. Our efforts, however, were fruitless, for we had net numbered off more than a dozen each, before M. (whose eyes were not so g.xid as they had once been ) shouted across to me: "I say, I saw oue of them on your side moving. I'm certain I did. They're uncanny. Let's give it up. " This inter rupt ion cf course upset all my calcula tious, but we soon came on the moving image, which turned out to be nothing more than oue of the old Frenchmen, eated peacefully among the statuos aud looking in his white clothes for all the world like a jolly, fat, old Buddha. Gentleman's Mug-.tzme 4,000 Mile With a Whrelbarrov. In 1878 Lyman Potter of New York State performed the prodigious task of pushing a common "paddy" wheelbar row across the continent. Ho started from his home on Done street, Albany, on tho morning of April 10, 1S78, and arrived in San Francisco on tho after noon of Oct. 5 of the same year, being almost exactly 178 days (five hours and three minutes Cver) iu performiug the wearisome feat. Potter was a shoe maker, and the trip was the result of a wager made by some friends who be lieved that sueh a trip would occupy at least 200 days. Tlie wager w as $1,000, but Potter made between three aud five times that sum advertising for different parties along the route. The wheelbar row was made specially for the use to which it was pnt and weighed but 75 pounds. The distance traveled by Pot ter was exactly 4,085?4 miles St Louis Republic. The Man lie Wanted.
