Slip them back of it ana the knobs wnl hold them in place. If milk is heated until luke warm and then quickly chilled, there will be much more cream. Curtains are easily run on brass rods if a thimble is first placed on the end of the rod. When milk has burned pour it at once into a pitcher and stand it in a basin of cold water until it is cool, when it will be found to be quite free from the burned smell and taste. Also when anything has burned in the double boiler, instead of re plenishing the steamer part with hot water, use cold for the same effect. If your soup is found tro salty add a few slices of raw potatoes and cook a little longer. The potato will aosorb the surplus salt. To keop the coffee pot free from a strong odor put a pinch of bicarbonate of soda in it once a week, till it up with water and boil slowly or simmer for a quar ter of an hour. A woman who makes delecta ble lemon pie sometimes adds the pulp of a banana to the cus tard before turning into the paste lined tin. She covers the pie with a meringue when it comes from the oven. After naphtha cleaning gloves, laces, ribbons, etc., at home, they may be placed directly upon a steam radiator, and will be found to be dry in half the time ordinarily required, and the odor will entirely disappear in less than an hour's time. When roasting meat in an open pan wet a clean white muslin cloth and lay over the top of the meat. It will keep from getting hard and does not require basting so often, and the meat is much nicer. A tlat brass button sewed on the corner of a dishcloth will be a great help in washing dishes. It can oe used as a "scratcher," and will not injure the finest china. A Valuable Tip.

A farmer and his wife came to Winnipeg on a visit. factions were united together they would constitute an exceed ingly small proportion of the peo pie when compared with the mil lious of votes the Republicans and Democrats have brought in to the political field. Hence there "No' said he, "I never go to ohurch." And his wife backed up lus'assertion. The visitor was finally persuad ed to go to a local church and was told the pastor was also an Amer ican. After the service he was is little sign of an approach of j introduced to the pastor, and the the hour when either of the two great parties will be melted into a new political organization, as was the history of the Federal ists and the Whigs. Of all those special factions the Socialists have the most siguiti cance. If they have not realized their expectations they have a lit tle more than held their own, and are thus encouraged to renew their efforts. The faction that has fared the worst is the so-called Independence League, which is nothing more than the creation of a man who had not enough po litical or personal significance to gather or retain a considerable body of adherents. His Loague was but a "spite fence" erected to annoy his neighbors, and now the fence is irretrievably broken down. The Populist party, too. following conversation took place: "Well, doctor, "said the visitor, "I enjoyed vour sermon." "I am very pleased to hear that," replied the pastor. "You know," explained the farmer, "I do not go to church very often, but that sermon of yours was the least like a sermon 1 ever heard." Winnipeg Telegram. au- Subscribe tor the Only $100 a year.

Raymond Peck of Gem attend ed church here Sunday evening. A number of our boys went over to the Tannery last Satur day afternoon to see the Pleasant Bidgo and Tannery ball game. We are glad to say everything went satisfactory election day. When and How to Eat. The normal sense of hunger makes the plainest food tasty and delicious, Without hunger, that is, without the call of nature for food, one is not justified in eating, says a celebrated physician. It is under a condition of repletion and surfeiting that artificial hun ger must be created by taking various condiments, spices, rich sauces and savories, and stimulat ing articles. All of these are un wholesome, and none of them should be resorted to except in sickness and disease, when it is often desirable and necessary to make the food as attractive and appetizing as possible to induce the patient to t :ke it. Prat even in such cases it is rarely ceces sary to resort to unwholesome stimulation. A large part of the sickness and disease of this life would disappear if everyone made it a rule to eat. only when really hungry, and then to take no more than the body required. rather formidable aspect, has run to seed. In this election the party has mustered only a few handfuls ot votes, where former ly it cruated them by thousands. So also with the Prohibitionists, who appear to have lost ground since the last electiot. for Presi dent. An explanation of this is in the fact that in States that have adopted Prohibition it has ceased with them to be an issue. Vet although uot one of these factious has elected arepreenta tive in the Sixty first Congress, politicians here and there will not cease to reckon with them as long as they make a sh w of political existence. By skillful combina tions with or against either of thai great political parties the Popu lists or Prohibiti inists in some States may still have strength enough to decide the result of an election. But the Socialists, who believe that the triumph of their doctrines in this country as well as throughout the world is only a question of more or less time, will not deal with any party. They will continue to propagate their plausible but most perm cious doctrines of human regen eration and to recruit increasing numbers of adherents from both the great parties unless they are combated with the same or a greater degree of energy.

It is not times that have changed, but the people amd names have changed When we were young, people who had colds, soaked thou foetln hot water and got well, now they have grip, take quinine and are sick all summer. Then they had sore throat, wrapped a piece of salt pork in an old sock, tied it around their neck at night and went to woi k the next morning; now they have tonsihtus, a surgical opera tion and two weeks in the house. Then they had the belly ache, took castor oil and recovered; now they have appendicitus, a week in the hospital and six feet due east and west and six feet perpendicular. People worked then. Now they labor, in those days they wore under clothes, now they wear lingerie. They went to a restaurant for their dinner, now they g to the cafe. Then they broke a leg, now they fracture a limb, they went crazy then, now they have brain storm. Politicians then paid good hard cash for votes, now they send government garden seeds.

Taft be the twenty-seventh President of the United States or the twenty sixth? As a matter of fact, there have been only twenty five men including the Vice Presi dents who succeeded to the Presidency, who have held the office of President. Mr. Taft will be the twenty sixth man to enjoy the honor and exercise the powers of President of the United States. Why then, should he rank as the twenty seventh Pres ident? On the McKinley peristyle on the State Capitol grounds at Columbus, O , and on the dedicat ed obelisk in Niagara Square, Buffalo, William McKinley is declared to have been the twenty tifth President of the United States. This agrees with the numbering of the almanacs, and if it is true Roosevelt, is the twenty sixth and Taft will be the twenty-seventh President, al though onlv twenty five men will have preceded him in that office. The coufusion arises from call ing Cleveland the tyenty-secoud and the twenty-fourth President of the United States because his two terms were separated by an other incumbent. If the Presi dential terms were numbered this would be correct, and not ouly Cleveland but every eight year President should be credit ed with two terms. It is an anomaly to apply the term meth od of enumeration to Cleveland al-me. This ountrj' has had only twenty five Presidents, and it is impossible for McKinley to be the twenty fifth aud Taft the twenty seventh if individuals are meant. If wo count by Presi denlial terms of four years, the country will have completed thirty of these terms on March 4 next, when Mr. Taft will enter upon the thirty-first Presidential term and be the twenty-sixth President.
