WHAT THEY SAY Extracts From Various Sources, Indi cating Democratic Opinion Regard ing Questions of the Day. Shame on those narrow-minded indi viduals who are so hopelessly ignorant as to argue that freedom of speech breeds anarchy. It is just the oppo site. As a rule, anarchists are not sons of America; they are sons of tyr anny. We don't just want to accuse any certain country in particular; but all enlightened men know that an archy is bred and born in these coun tries where freedom of speech, and all other freedoms are extremely limited. —lndiana Moderator. The significance of the Babcock iron and steel bill is not affected by the fact that there is little chance for its becoming a law at this session of con gress. The bill, coming as it does from a protectionist, is the entering wedge of free trade. It marks the beginning of the end of the high tariff system. Mr. McKinley recognized the drift of public opinion in his last speech in Buffalo the day before his assassination. The Babcock bill is in line with the policy suggested in that address. Protection is stabbed in the house of its friends.—Kansas City Star. Well Bred Children. The hallmark of good breeding is self possession, and that should be learned early in life. It can be taught to very young children, but not by giv ing them a free rein. A child is natu ■ rally composed. Circumstances and surroundings make him awkward and seif conscious. There are homes with out number where the children are well bred and happy on an income that is pitiably small. They have no luxuries, but that does not mean that they may not have them in the future, and surely 110 access of worldly wealth would ever place them at a disadvantage. The sim ple home life is as refined as you could possibly wish it, and the children are being flitted for any station the future may have in store for them. I do not suppose that the parents expect to see a son in the presidential chair or a daughter occupying the position of first lady in the land, but they do expect honorable positions are awaiting them if they choose to work for them. How Donlik-nk Women Should IlrfHs. The subject of dress is a question difficult indeed to the woman in busi ness, who of course has the feminine tastes and foibles peculiar to other women, yet who must study carefully the economy of the question, for lief Clot lies must unswer many demands. Always first comes the tailor made costume, which seems to answer so well the many requirements of modern life, and particularly the needs of the business woman. It is certainly the most useful and economical costume that she can have, for new changes in the way of little accessories are possi ble with a suit of this sort. With a few blouses a tailor made suit means almost a "wardrobe" to tho woman of slender means. With it and a flannel or cliallie blouse for working hours, 11 silk one for evening and church and one of chiffon or lace for the theater or any small informal affair she may always appear well dressed. Mrs. Ralston in Ladies' nome Journal. The Tnil Grain of Yncnlan. The sisal grass of Yucatan is one of the most remarkable vegetable prod ucts known. It grows in long blades, sometimes to the length of four or five feet, and when dry the blade curls up from side to side, making a cord which is stronger than any cotton string of equal size that has ever been manu factured. It is in great demand among florists and among manufacturers "f various kinds of grass goods, but .• s foon as its valuable properties become known it will have a thousand uses which are now undreamed of. Ropes, cords, lines of any description and any i.ze may be manufactured of it, and a A hip's cable of sisal grass is one of the possibilities of the future. It is almost impervious o the action of salt water and is not readily decayed or disinte grated by moisture and heat and will in time prove one of the most valuable productions of Central America. CASTOH.TA. Eoara the Ihe Kind You Have Always Bought *7" MAKING BONELESS HAMS. Ilonnokooporn May Do It nn Well an a Professional Batcher. Little though one may think, the process 01 making a boneless ham is quite a fine art and one that requires 110 small degree of skill in the under taking. In fact, it is not every one who can "bone" a ham successfully. In the event a housekeeper unfamiliar with the art of removing the bone from hams were to undertake the job she would be almost certain to begin operations by first of all splitting the ham open and endeavoring to carve out the bone by cutting around it. The re sult would be failure and vexation of the worst sort, to say nothing of a ruin ed liam. The proper way to remove the bone would never suggest itself to the average housekeeper. The operator stands the liani on end against a supporting block and pro ceeds to carve around the bone from one end as deep as it is possible for him to run his hand and knife down into the flesh and around the bone. Having reached the extreme limit (as far. in fact, as it is possible to extend the knife), he reverses the ham and begins cutting around the bone from the other end, cutting downward until he reaches the point that he attained in cutting from the end 011 which he began, the entire operation being sci entifically correct and on the principle of skinning an animal. The bone then slips out clear and smooth, free from any adhering flesh. As soon as this is done stout twine is wrapped around the ham and drawn taut, completely closing the aperture left by the removal of the bone. The twine is thus made fast and the liam laid away for a day or two, at the end of which time the hole has closed so neatly that, in slicing the ham, it is difficult to determine the exact spot from which the bone was removed. This is the proper mode of making boneless ham, and with a little prac tice any housekeeper can learn to do the work as well as a professional butcher. They will observe that first of all the bone is surrounded by a tis sue, and by starting the operation from the ends they will be surprised with what facility this tissue, dividing the bone from the flesh, peels loose from the former. A CURE AND A FEE. Peculiar Experience of H Doctor With u 11 IIKIIIOSM Man. In conversation one day about the peculiar views that commercial men sometimes entertain about professional services Dr. S. Weir Mitchell told tue following story: "A very wealthy man from the west came to consult me about an attack of vertigo. He said that he had just re turned from a trip to Europe, where lie had consulted eminent specialists, but that they had failed to afford liim any permanent relief. 'A physician in London,* he said, 'asked me why I did not make an attempt to be cured near er home. 1 thought 011 my way out west I would stop over to see you.' "'Has any physician you have visit ed looked iuto your ears?' I asked. " 'No,' was his reply. "I made an examination of his ears, removed some wax and u substance that appeared to be hardened reinnants of cotton wool. I sent him away then and told him to come again in a day or two. lie did so. " 'Well,' he exclaimed, 'I am cured. llo\t much do 1 owe you?' " 'About sso,' I replied. "As he drew a check he asked, 'Did you know when you first examined my ears that you could cure me?' "When I told him that 1 had a very fair conviction that I could, he said: 'Well, you are a blanked fool. You should have said to me: "I think 1 can cure you, and I will do so for J? 10,000. No cure, no pay." You would have got your money without a murmur.' " 'Oil,' I said, 'if you feel that way about It there are several little chari ties in which I am interested, and'— " 'Xo, 110,' he interrupted, 'that is not business. I have my cure, and you have the price you asked. The fraiis actiou is closed.'" Brnna In Eniclnnd I" Chnacer'a Time. A metal resembling brass, but said to have been superior in quality, was known in England as "uiaslin" us early as the time of Chaucer, and in the reign of Henry VIII, an act of parlia ment was passed prohibiting the ex port of brass out of England. Whether the earlier monumental brasses still to be found in our churches were made originally in England is not absolutely certain, the probability, according to some antiquaries, being that they were of French or Belgian workmanship.— Chambers' Journal. An I'rßont Cnne. When the doctor's telephone rang late one night, he went to the instru ment himself and received an urgent appeal from two fellow practitioners to come down to the club for a quiet game. "Emily, dear," he said, turning to his wife, "I am called out again, and it ap pears to be a very serious case, for there are two doctors already in at tendance."—New York Times. I.eft the lloiiMe. "Leave the house," cried little Links, making a brave bluff of strength to the burglar. "I intend to. my small friend," re plied the burglar courteously. "I am merely after the contents.

Almost distracted by its constant crying, and worn out with weary, anxious care and watching, she tries everything possible to obtain even relief for the little sufferer. With what comfort aud delight she sees her little one drop off into a deep peaceful health-giving slumber, after ite little clogged bowels are cleared of their poisonous burden by a single dose of JLaxakola, the great tonic laxative and mother's remedy. Laxakola is a pure, gentle and painless liquid laxative, and contains valuable tonic properties which not only act upon the bowels, but tone up the entire system and purify the blood. A few drojw can be given with safety to very young babies, which will often relieve colic by expelling the wind and gas that cause it. Great relief Ts ex perienced when administered to young children suffering from diarrhoea, accompanied with white or green evacuations, as it neutralizes the acidity of the bowels and carries out the cause of the fermentation. LAXAKOLA will aid digestion, relieve restlessness, assist nature, and induce sleep. For constipation, simple fevers, coated tongue, or any infantile troubles arising from a disordered condition of the stomach it is invaluable. Laxakola, the R reat tonic laxative. Is not only the most efficient of family remedies, hut the most economical, Iwcause it combines two medicines, viz.: laxative and tonic, and at one price. No other remedy gives so much for the money.

Tho secret of the marvelous success of M. (le Blowitz as Paris correspond ent of the London Times is said to have been due to the absolute and com plete confidence witlf which he inspir ed the statesmen, the politicians and the diplomats with whom he was brought in contact and which he never betrayed. Tliey all felt that tliey could depend absolutely on bis discretion, no matter how great the temptation from a journalistic point of view to do other wise. When the Duke Decazes while play ing billiards at the Quai d'Orsay after dinner one evening suddenly received the news of the purchase by the Brit ish government of the kbedive's stock in the Suez Canal company and. wild with rage, broke forth into frantic threats against the English govern ment, charging M. de Blowitz to make known his indignation and the fact that he was bent on retaliation, the correspondent of The Times, who had been one of the party present, although he saw the value of the news, made no use of it. The next day lie met the duke, who had recovered ills senses and who, grasping him by both hands, exclaim ed: "I shall never forget what you have done for us. You have sacrificed journalistic success to your sense of duty and to the cause of peace." A nomcHtlc Blend. A resourceful young matron had a small dinner party. Covers were laid for six, and the dinner was charming. The red wine was not too cold, the white wine not too warm and tho black coffee a masterpiece. At the begin ning of the end of the dinner a cordial was served. It happened to lie Crome Yvotto, and when the husband tasted It he put down ids glass with a look of anguish and was about to speak. His wife's eye silenced him. Nobody took more than the first sip of the liq ueur. After the last guest had depart ed the husband braved ids wife's eye and spoke. "My dear," said he, "what in tlie name of all unspeakable tilings was the matter with that liqueur?" IHs young wife smiled triumphantly. "Why," said she, "when 1 came to look at the bottle, just before dinner, I found there wasn't enough left to go round. It was too late to get any more, so I just added to it a bottle of violet toilet water. It was the same color, and it had the same smell, and I knew nobody would notice the dif ference. Wasn't it good?" Washin gton Fost. Tho Jewlnh Tornli. Of the objects used in the Jewish synagogue one of the most Interesting is the Torah scroll. The Delineator de scribes this as parchment scroll in Hebrew, mounted on wooden rollers, wrapped in a cloth of green velvet, em broidered in silk, which is held by a J Ivor worked belt and covered with a mantle of black velvet embroidered In gold. The upper handles of the rollers are of carved wood and the lower of Ivory, with silver bells on the rollers. The Jewish Torah, or the law, is con sidered by the people of this race the most important and sacred portion of the Scriptures. In order that it may be kept alive in the minds of the peo ple it is divided into as many "perl copes" as there are Sabbaths In the year, so that within a twelvemonth the entire book will have been read through. A manuscript copy is used, having been prepared by a professional scribe on parchment made of the skin of a clean animal—that is, one the flesh of which may be eaten. Oriental llornonlioe*. The type of horseshoe common in the orient is a plate fitted so us to cover the entire bottom of the hoof, with a perforation in the center. The weight of the average horseshoe Is three fourths of a pound. The native smiths usually cut these plates from sheets of wrought iron and rudely shape them for the purpose iu view. Four Murder Cases. Four murder cases are to come before the grand jury which meets next Mon day, the largest number for any grand jury in this county in many years. Victor Zarambo and Peter Lenoskl are charged with killing Anthony Sennick in the Exeter mine. Each man has made a confession implicating the other. John Connor, charged with the mur der of Neil Hanlon, was found sleeping near Ilunlon's body several hours after the crime. They wore tramps, and it is charged that they quarreled over a woman. Thomas Evans, of Duryea, is charged with killing Michael Melvin. He de clares that Melvin was a burglar, and was shot while trying tq break into his house. Evans has been out on bail. Samuel Kollar must answer for the murder of James Larkin, who was found dead in his cabin at Harvey's Lake last Sunday. Kollar was asleep in the cabin and was also wounded. His story is that a strange man attacked fheni. OASTORIA. Boars the _/} Th Kind Vou Have Always Bought OASTORIA.
