to attain full
all unnatural (0
To cure nervousness, lack of self-control, despondency, etc. To
exchange a jaded and worn nature for one of brightness, buoyancy
and power. To cure forever efifects of excesses, overwork, worry,
etc. To give full strength, development and tone to every portion
and organ of the body.
Age no barrier. Failure impossible. Two thousand references.
The book is purely medical and scientific; useless to curiosity
seekers; invaluable to men only who need it.
A desi)airing man, who had applied to us, soon after wrote:
" Well, I tell you that first day is one I'll never forget. I just
bubbled with joy."^ I wanted to hug everybody and tell them my
old self had died yesterday, and my new self was born to-day.
Why didn't you tell me when I first wrote that I would find it
this way?"
And another thus:
"If you dumped a cart-load of gold at my feet it would not
bring such gladness into my life as your method has done."
Write to the ERIE MEDICAL COHPANY, Buffalo, N. Y., and ask
for the little book called "COMPLETE MANHOOD." Refer to The
Philadelphia Record Almanac^ and the Company promises to send
the book, in sealed envelope, without any marks, and entirely free,
until it is well introduced.

of the United vStates, Canada and Mexico for Four Dollars per year,

payable in advance ; or for Three Dollars per year, or Twenty-five
Cents per month, without the Sunday issue.
To subscribers in Philadelphia or its suburbs The Record is deliv-
ered at Eight Cents per week, or without the Sunday paper at Six Cents
per week — payable to the carrier.
After nearly twenty years of continuous publication as a daily penny
journal, and twenty years of increasing popular appreciation, The
Record holds its place in the front of all competition. It gives the
news in readable form, so that the busiest man may find time to keep up
with current events, and besides has special features which commend it
to women and persons of leisure. Always independent in its own views,
it aims to present opposing views with fairness, and always to keep in
sight of truth.
To the advertiser it offers the use of the widest publicity. Its cir-
culation— well established, permanent, and solid in character — is very
largely in excess of all immediate competitors, and affords a guarantee
of advantage to those who have occasion to bring their business, of what-
ever kind, to the public attention. In Philadelphia, and in all the near-
by towns in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland, The
Record has more purchasers than any local newspaper.

PARTY PLATFORMS.
PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES, AND THE PRINCIPLES THEY
STAND FOR.
The year 1896 was unique in the political
history of the United States. There were
splits on the currency issue in the National
Conventions of three parties— the Republi-
can, the Democratic and the Prohibition.
The result was seven distinct Presidential
tickets, representing eight parties (the Silver
Party in convention having adopted the
candidates of the Democratic Free-Silver
Convention). Following are the names on
the respective tickets, Vith copies of the
platform adopted by each convention:
REPUBLICAN PARTY.
For President, William McKinley. of Ohio ; for
Vice-President, Garret A. Hobart,
of New Jersey.
Platform Adopted at St. Louis, June i8.
The Republicans of the United States, as-
sembled by their representatives in National
Convention, appealing for the popular and
historical jiLStification of their claims to the
matchless achievements of the thirty years
of Republican rule, earnestly and' confi-
dently address tliemselves to the awakened
intelligence, experience and conscience of
their countrymen in the following declara-
tion of facts'and principles :
For the first time since the Civil War the
American people have witnessed the calam-
itous consequences of full and tmrestricted
Democratic control of the Government. It
has been a record of unparalleled incapacity,
dishonor and disaster. In administrative
management it has ruthlessly sacrificed in-
dispensable revenue, entailed" an unceasing
deficit, eked out ordinary current expenses
with borrowed money, piled up the public
debt by S262,000,0t}!D in time of peace, forced
an adverse balance of trade, kept a perpet-
ual menace hanging ever the redemption
fund, pawned American credit to alien syn-
dicates, and reversed all the measures and
results of a successful Republican rule.
In the broad effect of its policy it has pre-
cipitated panic, blighted industry and trade
with prolonged depression, closed factories,
reduced work and wages, halted enterprise,
and crippled American production, while
stimulating foreign production for the Ameri-
can market. Every consideration of public
safety and individual interest demands that
the Government shall be rescued from the
hands of those who have shown themselves
incapable to conduct it without disaster at
home and dishonor abroad, and shall be re-
stored to the .party which for thirty years
administered it with unequaled success and
prosperity, and in this connection we heart-
ily indorse the wisdom, jKiiriotism and the
success of the administration of President
Harrison.
TARIFF.
We renew and emphasize our allegiance to
the policy of Protection as the bulwark of
American indiistrial inde]iendence and the
foundation of American develoi)ment and
pro-perity. This true American policy taxes
foreign products and encourages home in-
dustry : it puts the burden of revenue on
foreign goods ; it secures the American mar-
ket for the American producer; it upholds
the American standard of wages for the
American workingman ; it puts the factory
by the side of the farm, and makes the
American farmer less dependent on foreign
demand and price : it diffuses general thrift,
and founds the strength of all on the strength
of each. In its reasonable application it is
just, fair and impartial— equally opposed to
foreign control and domestic rnonopoly, to
sectional discrimination and individual fa-
I voritism.
We denounce the present Democratic tariflF
as sectional, injurious to the public credit,
and destructive to business enterprise. We
! demand such an equitable tariff on foreign
I imports which come into competition with
! American products as will not only furnish
! adequate revenue for the necessary'expenses
I of the Government, but will protect Ameri-
' can labor from degradation to the Avage level
of other lands. We are not pledged to any
particular schedules. The question of rates
is a practical question, to be governed by the
conditions of the time and of production—
! the ruling and uncompromising principle in
f the protection and development of Ameri-
can labor and industry. The country de-
mands a right settlemeiit, and then it wants
I rest.
RKCIPROCITY.
We believe the repeal of the reciprocity
arrangements negotiated by the last Repub-
lican administration was a national calamity,
and we demand their renewal and exten-
sion on such terms as will equalize our trade
with other nations, remove the restrictions
which now obstruct the sale of American
products in the ports of other countries, and
secure enlarged markets for the products of
our farms, forests and factories.
Protection and reciprocity are twin meas-
ures of Republican policy, and go hand in
hand. Democratic rule has recklessly struck
, down both, and both must be re-established.
Protection for what we produce ; free admis-
sion for the necessaries of life which we do
: not produce : reciprocity agreements of mu-
1 tual interests which gain open markets for
; us in return for our open markets to others.
Protection builds up domestic indtistry and
trade, and secures our own market for our-
selves; reciprocity builds up foreign trade
and finds an outlet for our stuplus.
SUGAR.
We condemn the present Administration
for not keeping faith with the .sugar pro-
ducers ©f this country. The Reptiblican
party favors such protection as will lead to
the production on American soil of all the
sugar which the American people use, and
for which thev pav other countries more
, than §100,000,000 aniiually.
WOOL AXD WOOLENS.
To all our products— to those of the mine
and the fields as well as to those of the shop
and the factory— to hemp, to wool, the prod-
uct of the grea"t industry of sheep husbandry,
I as well as to the finished woolens of the
, mills— we promise the most ample pro-
' tection.

MEPXHANT MARINE.
We favor restoring the American policy of
discriminating duties for the upbuilding of
our merchant marine and the protection of
our shipping in the foreign carrying trade,
so that American ships— the product of
American labor, employed in American ship-
yards, sailing under the Stars and Stripes,
and manned, officered and owned by Ameri-
cans—may regain the carrying of our foreign
commerce.
FINANCE.
The Republican Party is unreservedly for
sound money. It caused the enactment of
the law proViding for the resumption of
specie payments in 1879 ; since then every
dollar has' been as good as gold.
We are unalterably opposed to every meas-
use calculated to deba.se our currency or im-
pair the credit of our country. We are
therefore opposed to the free coinage of sil-
ver except by international agreement with
the leading commercial nations of the world,
which we pledge ourselves to promote, and
until such an agreement can be obtained the
existing gold standard must be preserved.
All our silver and paper currency must be
maintained at parity with gold, and we favor
all measures designed to maintain inviolably
the obligations of the United States and all
our money, whether coin or paper, at the
present standard, the standard of the most
enlightened nations of the earth.
PENSIONS.
The veterans of the Union army deserve
and should receive fair treatment'and gen-
erous recognition. Whenever practicable
they should be given the preference in the
matter of employment, and they are en-
titled to the enactment of such laws as are
best calculated to secure the fulfillment of
the pledges made to them in the dark days
of the country's peril. We denounce the
practice in the'Pension Bureau, so recklessly
and unjustly carried on by the present Ad-
ministration, of reducing pensions and ar-
bitrarily dropping names from the rolls as
desers-ihg the severest condemnation of the
American people.
FOREIGN RELATIONS.
Our foreign policy should be at all times
firm, vigorous and dignified, and all our in-
terests in the AVestern Hemisphere carefully
watched aiid guarded. The Hawaiian Islands
should be controlled by the United States,
and no foreign power should be permitted to
interfere with them : the Nicaraguan Canal
should be built, owned and operated by the
United States ; and by the purchase of the
Danish Islands we should secure a proper
and much-needed naval station in the West
Indies.
ARMENIAN MA.SSAfRES.
The massacres in Armenia have aroused
the deep sympathy and just indignation of
the American people, and we believe that
the United States should exercise all the in-
fluence it can properly exert to bring these
atrocities to an end. In Turkey, American
residents have been exposed to the gravest
dangers and American property destroyed.
There and everywhere American citizens
and American property must be absolutely
protected at all hazards and at any cost.
MONROE DOCTRINE.
^Ve reassert the Monroe Doctrine in its full
extent, and we reaffirm the right of the
United States to give the Doctrine effect by
responding to the appeal of any American
State for friendly intervention in case of
European encroachment. We have not in-
terfered and shall not interfere with the ex-
isting possessions of any European power in
this hemisphere, but these possessions must
not on any pretext be extended. We hope-
fully look forward to the eventual witli-
drawal of the European powers from this
hemisphere, and to the ultimate union of all
English-speaking parts of the continent by
the free consent of its inhabitants.
From the hour of achieving their own in-
dependence the people of the United States
have regarded with sympathy the stniggles
of other American people to free themselves
from European domination. We watch witli
deep and abiding interest the heroic battle
of the Cuban patriots against cruelty and op-
pression, and our best hopes go out for the
full success of their determined contest for
liberty.
The" Government of Spain, having lost con-
trol of Cuba, and being unable to protect the
property or lives of resident American citi-
zens, or'to comply with its treaty obligations,
we believe that the Government of the
United States should actively use its influ-
ence and good offices to restore peace and
give independence to the island.
THE NAVY.
The peace and security of the Republic and
the maintenance of it's rightful influence
among the nations of the earth demand a
naval power commensurate with its position
and responsibility. We therefore favor the
continued enlargement of the Navy and a
complete system of harbor and seacoast de-
fenses.
FOREIGN IMMIGRATION.
For the protection of the ciuality of our
American citizenship and of the wages of
our workingmen against the fatal competi-
tion of low-priced labor, we demand that the
immigration laws be thoroughly enforced,
and so extended as to exclude from entrance
to the United States those who can neither
read nor write.
CIVIL SERVICE.
The Civil-Service law was placed on the
statute book by the Republican Party, which
has always sustained it, and we renew our
repeated "declarations that it sliall be thor-
oughly and honestly enforced and extended
wherever praciicable.
FREE BALLOT.
We demand that every citizen of the United
States shall be allowed' to cast one free and
unrestricted ballot, and that such ballot shall
be counted and returned as cast.
LVNCHINGS.
We proclaim our unqualified condemna-
tion of the uncivilized and barbarous prac-
tice well-known as lynching, or killing of
human beings suspected or charged with
crime, without process of law.
NATIONAL ARBITRATION.
We favor the creation of a national board
of arbitration to settle and adjust differences
which may arise between employers and em-
ployees en'gaged in interstate-commerce.

THE PHII/ADEI^PHIA RECORD AI^MANAC.
HOMESTEADS. 1
We believe in an immediate return to the
free-homestead policy of the Republican
Party, and urge the passage by Congress of a
satisfactory free-homestead measure such as
has already passed the House, and is now
pending in the Senate.
TERRITORIES.
We favor the admission of the remaining
Territories at the earliest practical date,
having due regard to the interests of the
people of the Territories and of the United
States. All the Federal officers appointed
for the Territories should be selected from
bona fide residents thereof, and the right of
self-government should be accorded as far
as practicable.
ALASKA.
We believe the citizens of Alaska should
have representation in the Congress of the
United States, to the end that needful legis-
lation may be intelligently enacted.
TEMPERANCE.
W"e svmpathize with all wise and legiti-
mate efforts to lessen and prevent the evils
of intemperance and promote morality.
RIGHTS OF WOMEN.
The Republican Party is mindful of the
rights and interests of women. Protection
of American industries includes equal op-
portunities, equal pay for equal work, and
protection to the home. We favor the ad-
mission of women to wider spheres of useful-
ness, and welcome their co-operation in res-
cuing the country from Democratic and
Populist mismanagement and mi^rule.
Such are the principles and policies of the
Republican Party. By these i)rinciples we
will abide and these policies we will put into
execution. We ask for them the considerate
judgment of the American people. Confident
alike in the history of our great party and in
the justice of our cause, we present our plat-
form and our candidates in the full assurance
that the election will bring victory to the
Republican Party and prosperity to the
people of the United States.
FREE=SILVER DEMOCRATIC.
For President, William J. Bryan, of Nebraska ;
for Vice-President, Arthur Sewall,
of Maine,
Platform Adopted at Chicago, July lo.
We, the Democrats of the United Srates, in
National Convention assembled, do reaffirm
our allegia;nce to those great essential prin-
ciples of justice and liberty upon which our
institutions are founded, and which the
Democratic Party has advocated from Jeffer-
son's time to our own— freedom of speech,
freedom of the pre~s, freedom of conscience,
the preservation of personal rights, the
equalitv of all citizens before the law, and
the faithful observance of constitutional
limitations.
During all these years the Democratic
Partv has resisted the tendency of selfish in-
terests to the centralizf.tion of governmental
DOwer. and steadfastlv maintained the in-
tegritv of the dual scheme of government
established bv the founders of this republic
of republics. * Under its guidings and teach-
ings the great principle of local self-govern-
ment has found its best expression in the
maintenance of the rights of the States and
in its assertion of the necessity of confining
the General Government to the exercise of
the powers granted by the Constitution of
the United States.
The Constitution of the United States
guarantees to everv citizen the rights of civil
and religious liberty. The Democratic Party
has alwavs been the exponent of political
liberty arid religious freedom, and it renews
its obligations and reaffirms its devotion to
these fundamental principles of the Con-
stitution.
THE MONEY PLANK.
Recognizing that the money question is
paramount to all others at this time, we in-
vite attention to the fact that the Federal
Constitution named silver and gold together
as the monev metals of the United States,
and that the first coinage law passed by Con-
gress under the Constitution made the silver
dollar the monetary unit and admitted gold
to free coinage at a ratio based upon the
silver-dollar unit.
We declare that the act of 1873 demonetiz-
ing silver without the knowledge or approval
of the American people has resulted in the
appreciation of gold and a corresponding fall
in the prices of commodities produced by
the people ; a heavy increase in the burden
of taxation and of all debts, public and
private ; the enrichment of the money-lend-
ing class at home and abroad ; the prostra-
tion of industry and impoverishment of the
people.
We are unalterably opposed to monometal-
ism which has locked fast the prosperity
of an industrial people in the paralysis of
hard times. Gold monometalism is a Brit-
ish policv, and its adoption has brought
other nations into financial servitude to
London. It is not only un-American, but
anti-American, and it can be fastened on the
United States only by the stifling of that
spirit and love of liberty which proclaimed
i our political independence in 1776 and won
it in the War of the Revolution.
We demand the free and unlimited coinage
of both silver and gold at the present legal
ratio of 16 to 1 without waiting for the aid or
consent of any other nation. We demand
that the standard silver dollar shall be a full
legal tender, equallv with gold, for all debts,
public and private, and we favor such legis-
lation as will prevent for the future the de-
monetization of any kind of legal-tender
raonev by private contract.
We are opposed to the policy and practice
of surrendering to the holders of the obliga-
tions of the United States the option reserved
by law to the Government of redeeming
such obligations in either silver coin or
gold coin.
INTEREST-BEARING BONDS.
We are opposed to the issuing of interest-
bearing bonds of the United States in time
of peace, and condemn the trafficking with
banking svndicates, which, in exchange for
bonds and at an enormous profit to them-
selves, supply the Federal Treasury with
gold to maintain the policy of gold mono-
metallism.
AGAINST NATION.^L BANKS.
Congress alone has the power to coin and
issue money, and President Jackson de-
clared that this power could not be delegated
to corporations or individuals. We there-
. fore denounce the issuance of notes intended
1 to circulate as money by national banks as
! in derogation of the Constitution, and we

^ A Great Neivspaper
THB PHII,ADBI/PHIA RECORD AI^MANAC.
deniaud that all paper which is made a legal I
tender for public and private debts, or which
is receivable for duties to the United States,
shall be issued by the Government of the
I'nited States and shall be redeemable in
coin.
T.\KIFF DUTIE*<.
We hold that tariff duties should be levied
for purjuises of revenue. >uch duties to be so
adjusted as to operate eiiually throughout the
country and not discriminate between class
orsec'ion, and that taxation should be lim-
ited by the needs of the Government hon-
estly and economically administered.
\Ve denounce as disturbing to business the
Republican threat to restore the McKinley
law, which has twice been condemned by !
the people in national elections, and which,
enacted under the false plea of protection
to home industry, proved a prolitic breeder
of trusts and monopolies, enriched the few
at the expense of the many, restricted trade,
and deprived the i.roducers of the great
American staples of access to their natural
marli^ets.
AN INCOME TAX.
Until the money question is settled we are
opposed to any agitation for further changes
in our tariff laws, except such as are neces-
sary to meet the deficit in revenue caused by
the' adverse decision of the Supreme Court
on the income tax. But for this decision by
tlie Supreme Court there would be no deficit
in tile revenue under the law passed by a
Democratic Congress in strict pursuance of
tile uniform decisions of that Court for nearly
one hundred vears, that Court having in that
decision sustaiueri constitutional objections
to its enactment which had previously been
overruled by :he ablest Judges who have ever
sat on that Bench. We declare that it is the
duty of Congre.-s to use all the constitutional
power v.hich remains alter that decision, or
which may come from its reversal by the
Court as it may hereafter be constituted, so
tiia: the burdens of taxation may be equally
and impartially laid, to the end that wealth
may bear its due proportion of the expenses
ot the Government.
PROTECTION OF LABOR.
We hold that the most efficient way of pro-
tecting American labor is to prevent the im-
portation of foreign pauper labor to compete
with it in the home market, and that the
value of the home market to our American
farmers and artisans is greatly reduced by a
vicious monetary system which depresses the
prices of their products below the cost of
production, and thus deprives them of the
means of purchasing the products of our
home manufactories, and, as labor creates
the wealth of the country, we demand the
passage of such laws as may be necessary to
protect it in all its rights.
We are in favor of the arbitration of dif-
ferences between employers engaged in
inter-State commerce and their employees,
and recommend such legislation as is neces-
sary to carry out this principle.
RESTRICTIONS UPON RAILROADS.
The absorption of wealth by the few, the
consolidation of our leading railroad sys-
tems, and the formation of trusts and pools,
require a stricter control by the Federal
(iovernment of those arteries of commerce.
We demand the enlargement of the powers
of the Inter-State Commerce Commission,
and such restrictions and guarantees in the
control of railroads as will protect the j>eoj>le
from robbery and oppression.
DECLARE FOR ECONOMY.
We denounce the profligate waste of the
money wrung from the people by oi)pressive
taxati'tni and tlie lavisn appropriaiions of
recent Heimblicau Congresses, which have
kept taxes high, while the labor that pays
tliem is Tuiemployed and the products of the
peojjle's tcjil are 'depressed in price till they
uo longer repay the\'Ost of production. We
demand a return to that simplicity and
economy which benefits a democratic Gov-
ernment and a reduction in the number of
useless offices the salaries of v.hich drain
the substance of the people.
FEDERAL INTERFERENCE IN LOCAL AFFAIRS.
We denotmce arbitrary interference by
Federal authorities in local affairs as a vio-
lation of the Constitution of the United
States and a crime against free institutions,
and we especially object to government by
injunction as a new and highly dangerous
form of oppression by ^vhich Federal Judges,
in contempt of the laws of the States and
rights of citizens, become at once legislators,
judges an(l executors ; and we approve the
bill passed at the last session of the United
States Senate, and now pending in the House
of Reijresentatives. relative to contempts in
Federal courts and providing for trials by
jury in certain cases of contempt.
PACIFIC RAILROAD.
No discrimination should be indulged in
by the Government of the United States in
fiivor of any of its debtors. We approve of
the refusal' of the Fifty-third Congress to
pass the Pacific Railroad Funding bill and
denounce the efibrt of the present Rej^ubli-
can Congress to enact a similar measure.
Recognizing the just claims of deserving
Union soldiers, we heartily indorse the rule
of the present Commissioner of Pensions
that no names shall be arbitrarily dropped
from the pension roll ; and the fact of en-
listment and service should be deemed con-
clusive evidence against disease and di^-
ability Ijefore enlistment.
ADMLSSION OF TERRITORIES.
We favor the admission of the Territfjries
of New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma into
the Union as States, and we favor the early
admission of all the Territories having the
necessarv population and resources to entitle
them to'Statehood; and while they remain
Territories we hold that the officials aj)-
pointed to administer the government of any
Territory, together with the District of Co-
lumbia and Alaska, should hebonaflde resi-
dents of the Territory or District in which
their dtuies are to be jierformed. The Demo-
cratic Party believes in home rule, and that
all public lands of tlie United States should
be appropriated to the establishment of free
homes for American citizens.
We reconnnend that the Territory of Alaska
be granted a delegate in Congress, and that
the general land and timber laws of the
United States be extended to .>^aid Territory.
SYMPATHY FOR CUBA.
The Monroe Doctrine, as originally de-
clared, and as interpreted by succeeding
Presidents, is a x)ermaneut part of the for-
eign policy of the United States, and must at
all times be maintained.

THi; I'HII/ADEJI/PHIA Rl^CORD AIvMANAC.
We exteud our sympathy to the people of
Cuba in their heroic struggle for liberty and
independence.
CIVIL-SERVICE LAWS.
We are opposed to life tenure in the public
service, except as ])rovided in the Constitu-
tion. We favor appointments based on
merit, fixed terms of office, and such an ad- .
ministration of the civil-service laws as will '
alford equal opportunities to all citizens of
ascertained fitness.
AGAINST A THIRD TERM.
We declare it to be the unwritten law of
this Republic, established by custom and
usage of one hundred years and sanctioned
by the examples of the greatest and wisest
of those who founded and have maintained
our Government, that no man should be
eligible for a third term of the Presidential
offii-e.
IMPROVEMENT OF WATER WAYS. '
The Federal Government should care for
and improve the Mississippi River and other
great waterways of the Republic, so as to se-
cure for the interior States easy and cheap
transportation to tidewater. When any
waterway of the Republic is of sufficient im-
portance to demand aid of the Government
such aid should be extended upon a definite
plan of continuous work until permanent
improvement is secured.
Confiding in the justice of our caase and
the necessity of its success at the polls, we
submit the 'foregoing declarations of prin-
ciples and purposes to the considerate judg-
ment of the American people. We invite
the support of all citizens who approve them
and wlio desire to have them made effective
through legislation for the relief of the peo-
ple and the restoration of the country's
prosperity.
SOUND=MONEY DEMOCRATIC.
For President. John M. Palmer, of Illinois; for
Vice-President, Simon B. Buckner,
of Kentucky.
Platform Adopted at Indianapolis, Sept. 3.
This convention has assembled to uphold
the jiriufiples upon which depend the honor
and welfare of the American people, in order
that Democrats throughout the Union may
unite tlieir patriotic efforts to avert disaster
from their country and ruin from their party.
The Democratic Party is pledged to equal
and exact justice to all men, of every creed
and condition ; to the largest freedom of the
individual, consistent with good govern-
ment; to the preservation of the Federal
Government in its constitutional vigor, and
to the support of the States in all their just
rights ; to economy in the public expendi-
tures; to the maintenance of the public
faith, and sound money ; and it is opposed to
paternalism and all class legislation.
THE CHICAGO FALLACIES.
The declarations of the Chicago Conven-
tion attack individual freedom, the right of
private contract, the independence of the
judiciary and the authority of the President
to enforce Federal laws. They advocate a
reckless attempt to increase the price of silver
by legislation, to the debasement of our
monetary standard, and threaten unlimited
issues of paper money by the Government.
They abandon for Republican allies the
Democratic cause of tariff reform to court
the favor of Protectionists to their fiscal
heresy.
In view of these and other grave depart-
ures from Democratic principles we cannot
support the candidates of that convention,
nor be bound by its acts. The Democratic
Party has survived many defeats, but could
not survive a victory won in behalf of the
doctrine and policy proclaimed in its name
at Chicago.
THE DEVOTEES OF CLASS LEGISLATION.
The conditions, however, which make
possible such utterances from a national
convention are the direct result of class leg-
islation by the Republican Party. It still
proclaims, as it has for years, the power and
duty of Government to rpise and maintain
prices by law, and it proposes no remedy for
existing" evils, except oppressive and unjust
taxation.
The National Democracy here convened
therefore renews its declaration of faith in
Democratic yjrinciples, especially as applica-
ble to the conditions of the times. Taxation,
tariff', excise or direct, is rightfully imposed
only for public purposes, and not for private
gain. Its amount is justly measured by pub-
lic expenditures, which should be limited by
scrupulous economy.
The sum derived by the Treasury from tariff
and excise levies is affected by the state of
trade and volume of consumption. The
amount required by the Treasury is deter-
mined by the appropriations made by Con-
gress. The demand of the Republican' Party
for an increase in tariff' ta.xalion has its pre-
text in the deficiency of revenue, which has
its causes in the ^tagnation of trade and re-
duced consumption, due entirely to the loss
of confidence that has followed the Populist
threat of free coinage and depreciation of
our money and the Republican practice of
extra vageht appropriations beyond the needs
of good government.
POPULISTS ARRAIGNED.
We arraign and condemn the Populistic
conventions of Chicago and St. Louis for
their co-operation with the Republican Party
in creating these conditions, which are
pleaded in justification of a heavy increase
of the burdens of the people by a further re-
.sort to protection.
We therefore denounce protection, and its
ally, free coinage of silver, as schemes for
the personal profit of a few at the expense
of the masses, and oppose the two parties
which stand for these schemes as hostile to
the people of the Republic, whose food and
shelter, comfort and prosperity, are attacked
by higher taxes and depreciated money. In
fiiie, we reaffirm the historic Democratic
doctrine of tariff' for revenue only.
LIBERAL SHIPPING POLICIES.
We demand that henceforth modern and
liberal policies towards American shipping
shall take the place of our imitation of the
restrictive statutes of the eighteenth century,
which have been abandoned by every mari-
time power but the United States, and which,
to the nation's humiliation, have driven
American capital and enterprise to the use
of alien flags and alien crews, have made
the Stars and Stripes an almost unknown
emblem in foreign ports, and have virtually
extinguished the race of American seamen.
I We oppose the pretense that discriminating
j duties will promote shipping. That scheme
I is an invitation to commercial warfare upon

the United States, un-American in the light

cultural and manufactured products.
RELATIONS OF GOLD AND SILVER.
The experience of mankind has shown
that, by reason of its natural qualities, gold
is the necessary money of the large affairs of
commerce and business, while silver is con-
venientlv adapted to minor transactions, and
the most* beneficial use of both together can
be secured only by the adoption of the for-
mer as a standard 'of monetary measure and
the maintenance of silver at a parity with
gold by its limited coinage under suitable
safeguards of law.
Thus, the largest possible enjoyment of
both metals is gained with a value univer-
sally accepted throughout the world, which
constitutes the only practical bi-metallic cur-
rencv, assuring the most stable standard, and
especially the best and safest money for all
who earn their livelihood by labor or the
products of husbandry. They cannot suffer
when paid in the best money known to man,
but are the peculiar and most defenseless
victims of a debased and tluctuating cur-
rency, which offers continual protits to the
money-changer, at their cost.
THE party's first PRINCIPLES.
Realizing the truths demonstrated by long
and publiclnconvenience and loss, the Demo-
cratic Party, in the interests of the masses,
and of equal justice to all, practically estab-
lished by the legislation of 1834 and 1853 the
gold standard of monetary measurement, and
likewise entirely divorced the Government
from banking and currency issues. To this
long-established Democratic policy we ad-
here, and insist upon the maintenance of the
gold standard, and of the parity therewith of
every dollar issued by the Government, and
are firmly opposed to the free and unlimited
coinage of silver and to the compulsory pur-
chase of silver bullion.
But we denounce also the further main-
tenance of the present costly patchwork
system of national paper currency, as a con-
stant source of injury and peril. We assert
the necessity of such intelligent currency re-
form as will contine the Government to its
legitimate functions, completely separated
from the banking business, and afford to all
sections of our country a uuitbrui, safe and
elastic bank currency' under governmental
supervision, measured in volume by the
needs of business.
THE president's FIDELITY.
The fidelity, patriotism and courage with
which President Cleveland has fulfilled his
great public trust, the high character of his
administration, its wisdom and energy in the
maintenance of civil order and the enforce-
ment of the laws, its equal regard for the
rights of every class and every section, its
firm and dignifying conduct of foreign affairs,
and its sturdy persistence in upholding the
credit and honor of the nation, are fully rec-
ognized by the Democratic Party, and will
secure to him a place in history beside the
fathers of the Republic.
We also commend the Administration for
the great progress made in the reform of the
public service, and we indorse its effort to
extend tlie merit system still further. We
demand that no backward step be taken, but
that the reform be supported and advanced
until the undemocratic spoils system of ap-
pointments shall be eradicated.
ECONOMY, ARBITRATION, PENSIONS.
We demand strict economy in the appro-
priations, and in the administration of the
Government.
We favor arbitration for the settlement of
international disputes.
We favor a liberal policy of pensions to
deserving soldiers and sailors of the United
States.
DEFENDING THE SUPREME COURT.
The Supreme Court of the United States
Avas wisely established by the framers of our
Constitution as one of the three co-ordinate
branches of the Government. Its indepen-
dence and authority to interpret the law of
the land without fear or favor must be main-
tained. We condemn all efforts to degrade
that tribunal, or impair the confidence and
respect with which it has been deservedly
held. The Democratic Party ever has main-
tained and ever will maintain the supremacy
of law, the independence of its judicial ad-
ministration, the inviolability of contract,
and the obligations of all good citizens to re-
sist every illegal trust, combination or at-
tempt against the just rights of property and
the good order of society, in which are bound
up the peace and happiness of our people.
Believing these principles to be essential to
the well-being of the Republic, we submit
them to the consideration of the American
people.
PEOPLE'S PARTY.
For President, William J. Bryan, of Nebraska ;
for Vice-President, Thomas E.
Watson, of Georgia.
Platform Adopted at St. Louis, July 24.
The People's Party, assembled in national
convention, reaffirms its allegiance to the
principles declared by the founders of the
Republic, and also to the fundamental prin-
ciples of just government as enunciated in
the platform of the party in 1892.
We recognize that through the connivance
of the present and preceding Administrations
the country has reached a crisis in its
national life as predicted in our declaration
four years ago, and that prompt and patriotic
action is the supreme duty of the hour. We
realize that while we have political indepen-
dence our financial and industrial indepen-
dence is yet to be attained by restoring to our
country the constitutional control and ex-
ercise of the functions necessary to a people's
government, which functions have been
basely surrendered by our public servants to
co-operate monopolies. The influence of
European money changers has been more
potent in shaping legislation than the voice
(if the American people. Executive power
and patronage have been used to corrupt our
legislatures and defeat the will ot the people,
and Plutocracy has been enthroned upon the
ruins of Democracy. To restore the Govern-
ment intended by the fathers, and for the
welfare and pros'perity of this and future
generations, we demand the establishment of
an economic and financial system which
shall make us masters of our own aflairs,
and independent of European control, by the
adoption of the following Declaration of
Principles :
FINANCE.
1. We demand a national money, safe and
sound, issued by the General Government

Compact For7)i
only, without the intervention of banks of
issue, to be a full legal tender for all debts,
public and private ; a just, equitable and effi-
cient means of distribution direct to the
people and through the lawful disburse-
ments of the Government.
2. We demand the free and unrestricted
coinage of silver and gold at the present legal
ratio of 16 to 1, without waiting for the con-
sent of foreign nations.
0. We demand that the volume of circula-
ting medium be speedily increased to an
amount sufficient to meet the demands of
business and population, and to restore the
just level of prices of labor and production.
4. We denounce the sale of bonds and the
increase of the interest-bearing debt made by
the present Administration as unnecessary
and without authority of law, and demand
that no more bonds be issued except by spe-
cific act of Congress.
5. We demand such legislation as will pre-
vent the demonetization of the lawful money
of the United States by private contract.
6. We demand that the Government, in
payment of its obligations, shall use its op-
tion as to the Isind of lawful money in which
they are to be paid, and we denounce the
present and preceding Administrations for
surrendering thi'^ option to the holders of
Government obligations.
7. We demand a graduated income tax to
the end that aggregated wealth shall bear its
just proportion of taxation, and we regard
the recent decision of the Supreme Court
relative to the income-tax law as a misinter-
pretation of the Constitution and an inva-
sion of the rightt'Til powers of Congress over
the subject of taxation.
8. We demand that postal savings banks be
established by the Government for the safe
deposit of the savings of the people and to
facilitate exchange.
TRANSPORTATION.
1. Transportation being a means of ex-
change and a public necessity, the Govern-
ment should own and operate the railroads
in the interest of the people and on a non-
partisan basis, to the end that all may be ac-
corded the same treatment in transportation,
and that the tyranny and political power now
exercised by the great railroad corporations,
which result in the impairment, if not the
destruction, of the political rights and per-
sonal liberties of the citizen, may be de-
stroyed. Such ownership is to be accom-
plished gradually, in a manner consistent
with sound public policy.
2. The interest of the'United States in the
public highways, built with public moneys,
and the proceeds of extensive grants of land
to the Pacific railroads, should never be alien-
ated, mortgaged or sold, but guarded and
protected for the general welfare as provided
by the laws organizing such railroads. The
foreclosure of existing liens of the United
States on these roads should at once follow
default in tlie payment tliereof by tlie debtor,
the companies, and at tlie foreclosure sales of
said roads the Government shall purchase
the same if it become necessary to protect
its interests therein, or if they can be pur-
chased at a reasonable price, and the Gov-
ernment shall operate said railroads as pub-
lic highways for the benetit of the whole
people, ancl not in the interest of the few,
under suitable provisions for protection of
life and i^roperty, giving to all transportation
interests ecpial privileges and equal rates for
fares and freight.
8. We denounce the present infamous
schemes for refunding these debts, and de-
mand that the laws now applicable thereto
be executed and administered according to
their true intent and spirit.
4. The telegraph, like the post-office sys-
tem, being a neces.sity for the transmission
of news, should be owned and operated by
the Government in the interest of the
people.
LAND.
1. The true policy demands that National
and State legislation shall be such as will
ultimately enable every prudent and in-
dustrious' citizen to secure a home, and
therefore the land should not be monopolized
for speculative purposes. All lands now-
held by railroads and other corporations in
excess of their actual needs should by law-
ful means be reclaimed by the Government
and held for actual settlers only, and subject
to the right of every human being to acquire
a home upon the soil, and private land mo-
nopoly, as well as alien ownership, should
be prohibited.
2. We condemn the frauds by which the
land grant to the Pacific railroad companies
have, through the connivance of the In-
terior Department, robbed multitudes of
actual bona fide settlers of their homes and
miners of their claims, and we demand
legislation by Congress which will t --^rce
the exemption of mineral land from such
grants after as well as before patent.
3. We demand that bona fide settlers on all
public lands be granted free homes as pro-
vided in the National Homestead law, and
that no exception be made in the case of In-
dian reservations when opened for settle-
ment, and that all lands not now patented
come under this demand.
DIRECT LEGISLATION.
We favor a system of direct legislation
through the initiative and referendum under
proper constitutional safeguards.
GENERAL PROPOSITIONS.
1. We demand the election of President,
Vice-President and United States Senators
by a direct vote of the people.
2. We tender to the patriotic people of
Cuba our deepest sympathy in their heroic
struggle for political freedom and iude-
pendence, and we believe the time has come
Avhen the United States, the great republic
of the world, should recognize that Cuba is
and of right ought to be a free and inde-
pendent State.
3. We favor home rule in the Territories
and the District of Columbia, and the early
admission of Territories as States.
4. All public salaries should be made to
correspond to the price of labor and its
products.
5. In times of great industrial depression
idle labor should be employed on public
works as far as practicable.
6. The arbitrary course of the Courts in
assuming to imprison citizens for indirect
contempt, and ruling by injunction, should
be prevented by proper legislation.
7. We favor just pensions for our disabled
Union soldiers.
8. Believing that the elective franchise
and an untrammeled ballot are essential to a
Government of, for, and by the people, the
People's Party condemn the wholesale sys-
tem of disfranchisement adonted in some
^uly, i8$7 ^ t* ^

of the States as unrepublican and undemo-
cratic, and we declare it to be the duty of
the several State Legislatures to take .such
action as will secure a full free, and fair
ballot and an honest count.
9. While the foregoing proposition.s con-
stitute the platform unon which our party
standi, and for the vindication of which its
organization will be maintained, we recog-
nize that the great and pressing issue ot the
pending campaign upon which the present
Presidential election will turn is the finan-
cial question, and upon this great and specific
issue between the parties we cordially invite
the aid and co-operation of all organizations
and citizens agreeing with us upon this vital
question.
SILVER PARTY.
For President, William J. Bryan, of Nebraska ;
for Vice-President, Arthur Sewall,
of Maine.
Platform Adopted at St. Louis, July 10.
The National Silver Party of America, in
convention assembled, hereby adopts the
following Declaration of Principles :
First, the paramount issue at this time in
the United States is indisputably the money
question. It is between the British gold
standard, gold bonds and bank currency on
the one side, and the bimetaUic .standard,
no bonds, Government currency (and an
American policy) on the other.
FREE SILVER.
On this issue we declare ourselves to be in i
favor of a distinctively American financial |
system. We are unalterably opposed to the
single gold standard, and demand the im-
mediate return to the constitutional standard
of gold and silver, by the restoration by this
Government, independently of any foreign
power, of the unrestricted 'coinage of both
gold and .silver into standard coin at the
ratio of 16 to 1, and unon terms of exact
equality as they existed prior to 1873— the
silver coin to be of full legal tender, equally
with gold, for all debts and dues, public and
private ; and we demand such legislation as
will prevent for the future the destruction
of the legal-tender quality of any kind of
money by private contract.
PAPER CURRENCY.
We hold that the power to control and
regulate a paper currency is inseparable
from the power to coin money : and hence
that all currency intended to circulate as
money should be issued, and its volume con-
trolled by the General Government only, and
should be a legal tender.
AG.\INST BONDS.
We are unalterably opposed to the issue by
the United States of interest-bearing bonds
in time of peace, and we denounce as a
blunder worse than a crime the present
Treasury policy concurred in by a Republican
House of i>lunging the country into debt by
hundreds of millions in the vain attempt to
maintain the gold standard by borrowing
gold, and we demand the payment of all
coin obligations of the United States as pro-
vided by existing laws, in either gold or sil-
ver coin, at the option of the Government ,
and not at the option of the creditor.
The demonetization of silver in 1873 I
enormously increased the demand for gold,
enhancing its purchasing power and lower-
ing {ill prices measured by that standard, and
since that unjust and indefensible act the i
prices of American products have fallen
upon an average of nearly fifty per cent.,
carrying down with them proportionately the
money value ot all other forms of propeVty.
Sucii fall of prices has destroyed the profits
of legitimate industry, injuring the producer
for the benefit of the non-producer, increas-
ing the burden of the debtor, swelling the
gains of the creditor, paralyzing the pro-
ductive energies of the American people,
relegating to idleness vast numbers of willing
workers, sending the shadows of despair
into the home of the honest toiler, filling the
land with tramps and paupers, and building
up colossal fortunes at the money centres.
THE BOND ISSUES.
In the effort to maintain the gold standard
the country has within the last two vf.ars, in
a time of profound peace and plenty, been
loaded down with 5^262, 000, OOt) ot additional
interest-bearing debt, under such circum-
stances as to allow a syndicate of native and
foreign bankers to realize a net profit of
millions on a single deal.
It stands confessed that the gold standard
can only be upheld by so depleting our paper
currency as to force the prices of our pro-
ducts below the price of production, or even
below the Asiatic level, to enable us to sell in
foreign markets, thus aggravate ng the very
evils ofwhich our people so bitterly complain",
degrading American labor and striking at
the foundation of our civilizatiijn itself.
The advocates of the gold standard per-
sistently claim that the cause of our distre.ss
is over-production, that we have produced so
much that it made us poor, which implies
that the true remedy is to close the factory,
aljandon the farm and throw a multitude of
people out of employment— a doctrine that
leaves us unnerved "and disheartened and
absolutely without hope for the future.
NO OVERPRODUCTION.
We affirm it to be unquestioned that there
can be no such economic paradox as over-
production and at the same time tens of
thousands of our fellow-citizens remaining
half clothed and half fed, and who are
piteously clamoring for the common necessi-
ties of li'fe.
Over and above all other questions of
policy we are in favor of restoring to the
leople of the United States the time-honored
money of the Constitution— gold and silver,
not oiie, but both — the m( aiey < if Washington
and Hamilton and Jefl'erson and Monroe and
Jackson and Lincoln, to the end that the
American people ma}' receive honest pay for
an honest product ; that the American debtor
may pay his just obligations in an honest
standard, and not in a dishonest and un-
sound standard, appreciated one hundred
per cent, in purchasing power and no appre-
ciation in debt-paying power, and to the
end, further, that silver-standard countries
may be deprived of the unjust advantage
they now enjoy in the diflerence in exchange
between gold and silver, an advantage
which tariff legislation cannot overcome.
We therefore confidently appeal to the
people of the United States to hold in abey-
ance all other questions, however important
and even momentous they may appear; to
sunder, if need be, all foriner party ties and
affiliations, and unite in f)ne supreme effort
to free themselves and their children from
the domination of the money power— a power
more destructive than any which has ever
been fastened upon the civilized men of any

race or in any age. And upon the consum-
mation of our desires and efforts we invoke
the aid of all patriotic American citizens and
the gracious favor of Divine providence.
FOR BKVAN AND SKWAIJ..
Inasmuch as the patriotic majority of the
Chicago Convention embodied in the finan-
cial plank of its i)latform the })rinciples
enunciated in the platform of the National
Silver Partv, promulgated at Washington,
D. ("., Januarv22. IS'.tt;, and herein reiterated,
which is not only the ])aramount but only
real issue in the pending campaign, there-
fore recognizing that their nominees embody
these patriotic principles, we recommend
that this Convention nominate William J.
Hrvan, of Nebraska , for President, and Ar-
tln'ir Sewall, of Maine, for Vice-President.
PROHIBITION PARTY.
For President, Joshua Levering, of Maryland ;
for Vice-President, Hale John-
son, of Illinois.
Platform Adopted at Pittsburg, Pa., May 27
We. the members of the Prohibition Party,
in iiatioiml convention assembled, renew-
ing our declaration of allegiance to Al-
m;ghtv God as the riglitful ruler of the uni-
verse, lay down tlie following as our declara-
tion of itolitical purpose:
The Prohibition Party, in national con-
vention assembled, declares its firm convic-
ti(m that the manufacture, exportation,
importation and sale of alcoholic oeverages
has ])roduced .such .social, commercial, in-
dustrial and jiolitieal wrongs, and is now so
threatening tlie iierpetuity of all our social
and ])olitical institutions, 'that the suppres-
sion of the same by a national party organ-
ized therefor is the greatest object to be
accomplished by the voters of f)ur country,
and is of such importance that it, of right,
ought to control the political actiojis of all
our patriotic citizens until such suppression
is accomplished.
The urgency of this course demands the
union without further delay of all citizens
who desire the prohibition of the liquor
traffic : therefore be it
Rcso'ved, That we favor the legal prohibi-
tion by State and National legislation of the
manufacture, importation and sale of alco-
holic; beverages; tiiat we declare our pur-
pose to organize and unite all the friends of
I'rohibition into one party, and in order to
accomplish this end we deem it right to
leave every Prohibitionist the freedom of his
own convictions upon all other political
questions, and trust our representatives to
take such action upon other political ques-
tions as the changes occasioned by Prohibi-
tion and the welfare of the whole people
shall demand.
Resolved, The riglit of suffrage ought not
to be abridged on accoiuit of sex.
NATIONAL (PROHIBITION) PARTY.
For President, Charles E. Bcntley, of Nebraska ;
for Vice-President, James H. Southgate,
of North Carolina.
Platform Adopted at Pittsburg, Pa., May 28
The National Party, recognizing God as
tiie author of all just "power in government,
presents the following Declaration of Prin-
ciples, which we pledge ourselves to enact
into eflective legislation when given the
power to do so:
1. The suppression of the manufacture and
sale, importation, exportation and transpor-
tation of intoxicating liquors for beverage
purposes. We utterly reject all plans for
regulating or compromising with this traffic,
whether such plans be local option, taxa-
tion, license or public control. The sale of
liquors for medicinal and other legitimate
uses should be controlled by the State, with-
out profit, and with such regulations as will
prevent fraud or evasion.
2. No citizen should be denied the right to
vote on account of sex.
:-). All money should be issued by the Gen-
eral Government only, and without the in-
tervention of any private citizen, corpora-
tion or banking "institution. It should be
based upon the wealth, stability and integ-
rity of the nation. It should be a full legal
tender for all debts, public and private, and
should be of sufficient volume to meet the
demands of the country. And, for the pur-
pose of honestly liquidating our own out-
standing coin obligations, we demand the
full and unlimited coinage of both silver
and gold, at the ratio 16 to 1, without con-
sulting any one other nation.
4. The initiative and referendum, and pro-
portional representation, should be adopted.
5. Free land is the common heritage of
the people, and should be preserved from
monopoly and speculation. All unearned
grants of' lands, subject to forfeiture, should
be retained by the Government, and no por-
tion of the public domain should hereafter
be granted except to actual settlers, con-
tinuous use being essential to tenure.
(i. Railroads, telegraph and other natural
monoi olies should be owned and operated
by the Government, giving to the people the
benefit of service and protecting them from
all cost.
7. The National Constitution should be so
amended as to allow the national revenues
to be raised by equitable adjustment of tax-
ation on the propeities and incomes of the
people, and importation duties should be
levied as a means of securing equitable com-
mercial relations with other nations.
8. The contract convict labor system,
through which speculatorsare enriched at the
expense of the State, should be abolished.
9. All citizens should be protected by law
in their right to one day of rest in seven,
without oppres.sing any who conscientiously
observe any other than the first day of the
week.
10. The American public schools, taught
in the English language, should be main-
tained, and no public fund should be appro-
priated for .sectarian institutions.
11. The President, Vice-President and
United States Senators should be elected by
direct vote of the people.
12. Ex-soldiers and .'railors of the United
States army and navy, their widows and
minor children, should receive liberal pen-
sions, graded on disability and time of ser-
vice, not merely as a debt of gratitude, but
for service rendered in the preservation of
the Union.
13. The immigration laws should be so se-
cure as to exclude paupers and criminals.
None but citizens of the United States should
be allowed to vote in any State, and natur-
alized citizens should not vote until one year
after naturalization papers have been issued.
11. Having herein presented our principles
and purposes, we invite the co-operation
and support of all citizens who are with us
substantially agreed.

THE PHII/ADEI/PHIA RECORD AI^MANAC.
SOCIALIST=LABOR PARTY.
For President, Charles H. Matchett, of New
York ; for Vice-President, Mattliew
Maguire, of New Jersey.
Platform Adopted at New York, July 9.
The Socialist-Labor Paily of the United
States, in convention asse'mbled, reasserts
the inalienable right of all men to life, lib-
erty and the pursuit of happiness.
With the founders of the American repub-
lic we bold that the purpose of government
is to secure every citizen in the enjoyment
of this right : but in the light of our social
conditions we hold, furthermore, that no
such right can be exercised under a system
of economic inequality, essentially destruc-
tive of life, of liberty and of happiness.
With the founders of this Republic we hold
that the true theory of politics is that the
machinery of government must be owned
and controlled by the whole people : but in
the light of our industrial development we
hold, furthermore, that the true theory of eco-
nomics is that the machinery of prodiiction
must also belong to the people in common.
To the obvious fact that our despotic sys-
tem of economics is the direct opposite of
our democratic system of politics can plainly
be traced the existence of a privileged class,
the corruption of government by that class,
the alienation of public property, public
franchises and public functions to that class,
and the abject dependence of the mightiest
of nations upon that class.
Again, through the perversion of dem-
ocracy to the ends of plutocracy, labor is
robbed of the wealth which it alone pro-
duces, is denied the means of self-employ-
ment, and, by compulsory idleness in wage
slavery, is even deprived of the necessaries
of life. Human power and natural forces
are thus wasted that the plutocracy may rule.
Ignorance and misery, with all'their con-
comitant evils, are perpetuated that the
people may be kept in bondage.
Against such a systeri the Socialist-Labor
Party once more enters its protest. Once
more it reiterates its fundamental declara-
tion that private property in the natural
sources of production and in the instruments
of labor is the obvious cause of all economic
servitude and political dependence.
The time is fast coming when, in the
natural course of social evolution, this sys-
tem, through the destructive action of its
failures and crises on the one hand, and the
constructive tendencies of its trusts and other
capitalistic combinations on the other hand,
shall have worked out its own downfall.
We therefore call upon the wage workers
of the United States, and upon all other
honest citizens, to organize under the banner
of the Socialist-Labor Party into a class-con-
scious body, aware of its "rights and deter-
mined to conquer them by taking possession
of the public powers ; so that, held together
by an indomitable .spirit of solidarity under
the most trying conditions of the "present
class struggle, we may put a summary end
to that barbarous struggle by the abolition of
classes, the restoration of the land and of all
the means of production, transjiortation and
distribution to the people as a collective
body, and the substitution of the co-opera-
tive commonwealth for the present state of
planless production, industrial war and social
disorder — a commonwealth in which every
worker shall have the free exercise and ftill
benefit of his faculties, multiplied by all the
modern factors of civilization. With a view
to immediate improvement in the condition
of labor we present the following demands :
I. Reduction of the hours of labor in pro-
ponion to the progress of production.
2.. The United States to obtain possession
of the mines, railroads, canals, telegraphs,
telephones, and all other means of public
transportation and communication : the em-
ployees to operate the same co-operatively
under control of the Federal Government
and to elect their own superior officers, but
no employee shall be discharged for political
reasons.
3. The municipalities to obtain possession
of the local railroads, ferries, water works,
gas works, electric plants, and all industries
requiring municipal franchises ; the em-
ployees to operate the same co-operatively
under control of the municipal administra-
tion and to elect their own superior officers,
but no employee shall be discharged for
political reasons.
4. The public lands to be declared inalien-
able. Revocation of all land grants to cor-
porations or individuals, the conditions of-
which have not been complied with.
5. The United States to have the exclusive
right to issue money.
6. Congressional "legislation providing for
the scientific management of forests and
waterways, and prohibiting the waste of the
natural resources of the country.
7. Inventions to be free to all : the inven-
tors to be remunerated by the nation.
8. Progressive income tax and tax on inher-
itances : the smaller incomes to be exempt.
9. School education of all children under
fourteen years of age to be compulsory,
gratuitou.s'and accessible to all by public a"s-
sLstance in meals, clothing, books, etc..
where necessary.
10. Repeal of all pauper, tramp, conspiracy
and sumptuary laws. Unabridged right of
combination.
II. Prohibition of the employment of
children of school age and the em"ployment
of female labor in occupations detrimental
to health or morality. Abolition of the con-
vict labor contract system.
12. Employment of the unemployed by
the public authorities (county, city, stat'e
and nation).
13. All wages to be paid in lawful money
of the United States. Equalization of wo-
man's wages with tiiose of men where equal
service is performed.
11. Laws for the protection of life and
limb in all occupations, and an efficient em-
ployers' liability law.
lo. The peopl'e to have the right to propose
laws and to vote upon all measures of import-
ance, according to the referendum principle.
16. Abolition of the veto power of the ex-
ecutive (national, state and municipal),
wherever it exists.
17. Abolition of the United States Senate
and all upper legislative chambers.
18. Municipal self-government.
19. Direct vote and seeret ballots in all
elections. Universal and equal right of suf-
frage without regard to color, creed or sex.
Election days to be legal holidays. The
principle of" proportional representation to
be introduced.
20. All public officers to be subject to recall
by their lespective constituencies.
"21. Uniform civil and criminal law
throughout the United States. Administra-
tion of justice to be free of charge. Aboli-
tion of capital punishment.

HOUSEHOLD RECIPES.
Cornmeal Puffs.— Sift together oue and
one-half cupfuls of cornmeal, one and one-
half eupiuls of flour, one teaspoonful of salt,
and one-half of a cupful ot sugar. Beat the
yelks of two eggs, add to them one cupful of
milk or cream, and stir into the dry mixture.
Beat well and add the stiffly beaten whites
of the eggs, hastily stir in two teaspoonfuls
of baking powder^ and bake in gem pans in
a hot oven.
Banana Sandwiches. —Bananasandwiches
are new and very nice. Take bread at least
two days old, cut oft' the crast, and butter
the end of the loaf: shave < ff a slice one-
eighth of an inch in thickness, spread with
plain mayonnaise salad dressing, and add
thin slices of bananas. Cover wich another
slice of bread. Pile on a plate on -which a
doily has been placed.
Marsh mallow Cakes. — When making
cookies roll out some of the dough thin and
cut with a diamond-shape cutter in size about
four inches between its long opposite points.
Place a marshmallow in the center and fold
the two opposite long points over it and press
them together. In leaking, the marshmallow
will swell and round the joined dough, which
will be left like the handle of a tiny fiat
basket w hen the cooling marshmallow" con-
tracts.
Prune Souffle.— Steam eighteen prunes
till soft : remove the stones and chop very
tine. Add to this one cup of pulverized
sugar. Have beaten very stiff the whites of
eight eggs. Add this to the fruit, and flavor
with one tea<poonful of vanilla extract.
Butter a baking dish,^and bake in a very cool
oven for thirty minutes. Serve cold with,
whipped cream.
Cheese Balls.- To one cup of grated stale
cheese add one-third of a teaspoonful of salt,
a dash of red pepper and a pinch of celery
salt. Beat the whites of two eggs stiff; mix
together. Mould with the hands into balls
the size of walnuts. Drop two at a time into
a kettle of boiling lard. With a silver fork
or wire spoon keep the balls constantly in
moti(jn ; if allowed to rest on the bottom of
the kettle they will pull apart and stick. A
moment is sufficient time to brown them if
the lard is boiling. Place on ordinary wrap-
ping payjer for an instant, and then serve
piping hot with coffee.
Apple Bread.— Boil a dozen good sized
apples that have been carefully peeled and
cored, until they are perfectly tender. While
still warm, mash them in double the amount
of flour and add the proper proportion of
yeast. The mass should then be thoroughly
kneeded without water, as the juice of the
apples will make it sufficiently soft. It
should be left to rise for twelve hours, then
formed into loaves, and baked when quite
light. Apple bread was the invention of a
scientitic Frenchman, and it has always been
highly commended for its healthfulness.
Anchovy Sandwiches. — Anchovy sand-
wiches are among the easiest of chaflng-
dish achievements, responding graciously to
the advances of the merest tyro in the art.
Put a tablespoonful of butter in the cutlet
dish, and when very hot lay in thin slices of
stale bread, cut even. 1)6 not crowd. As
soon as one side is brown, turn. When both
sides are a delicate brown spread lightly
with anchuvy paste.
Lalah Rookh.— Beat the whites of four
eggs till perfectly stitt". Beat the yellows till
creamy, and slowly add one-half cup of
powdered sugar. Add one-half cup of fruit
juice, and the juice from one lemon. Add
one-half pint of cream, whipped ; cut in the
beaten wiiites of the four eggs, place in a
freezer, pack with salt and ice, and let it
stand for tv.o hours before using it.
Glazed Sweet Potatoes.— Select potatoes
of uniform size, pare and cut into long oval
shape. Cook in boiling salted water until
nearly tender. Mix one-fourth cupful of
sugar with one-fourth cupful of butter, and
melt in one-half cujjful of hot water. Ar-
range the pijtatoes in a granite-ware pan.
]Moisten with the sugar mixture. Set them
into the oven and baste often with this syrup.
Cook until they are covered with a" rich
brown glaze, Ijut do not let them burn.
California Cookies.— One cupjful of molas-
ses, one-half cupful of milk, one egg, one-
half cupftil of butter, one-half cupful of sti-
gar, one cupful of chopped raisins, oiie-half
teaspoonful each of ground cloves, cinnamon
and nutmeg, one teasyjoonftil of soda. Mix
in flour like soft gingerbread, and drop in
spoonfuls on buttered tins. Bake quickly.
Celery Salad.— Six heads of celery, one egg
yelk, one tea>poonful of mustard, a" little salt
and pepper, juice of one lemon, three table-
spoonfuls of melted butter ; chop the celery
flne and put in salad bowl ; mix the egg
yelk, mustard, salt, pepper, lemim juice and
two tablespoonftils of hot water : beat all
together ; add butter slowly, beating all the
while : then add a tablespoonfiil of hot
water ; turn over celery.
White Flour Gems.- One egg beaten light-
ly, one cup of milk, one tablespoonful of
butter, one tablespoonful of sugar : sift oue
teaspocnful of cream-of-tartar, one-half tea-
spoonful of soda with one and a half cups of
flour ; a little salt ; beat thoroughly and drop
into hot gem pans.
Rye Breakfast Cakes.— Two cups of rye
meal, one-half cup of molasses, speck of salt,
one and a half cups of sweet milk to mix it
very soft, and one teaspoonful of saleratus ;
bake at once in a gem pan or muffin rings.
Fish Turbans.— Take thin strips of had-
dock or halibut, roll, skewer with wooden
toothpicks, season with salt, pepper and mel-
ted butter, and lay a slice of onion on each
ttirban. Remove 'the onion before baking,
place the fish in a shallow pan and bake for
fifteen to twenty minutes. Serve with
Tomato Sauce. — One tablespoonful of but-
ter, one tablespoonful of flour, one-half tea-
spoonful of salt, one-half saltspoonful of
white pepper, one cupful of strained tomato.
Make like cream sauce and pour over the
turbans.
Codfish Pie.— Put a laver of fish in a pie
tin, dot liberally with bits of butter, add a
very little salt and a pinch of cayenne, and
cover with mashed potato, well seasoned.
Bake twenty minutes. 'Tis a virtue in this
pie to be "done brown."
Pie=Crust is always better f.)r being rolled
up a day before it is baked. Keep it in the
ie-e-chest or in a verv cold place. The short-
ening seems to diffuse itself better for stand-
ing over a day, and it is more flaky when
again rolled out.

Garnitures and Mavonnaises.— Maiiv gar-
nitures are a matter" of taste and kiiack.
After some experience anv disli tliat goes well
with cheese can begarnislied with little trou-
ble in slightly A-aried ways, without going in
for elaborate recipes. For instance, small
.squares or diamonds of verv crisplv-fried
bread, covered with a paste made of pomad-
ed cheese rather hotly .-easoned. and stirred
with a few drops of cream, make a most de-
licious and favorite garniture. Or line some
])atty jians with a little ]ia<try. sprinkle<l with
grated Parmesan cheese, and over this jiut a
tiny piece of butter ; beat up two eggs, add a
little cream, season to taste with a ]jlentiful
supply of pepper, and a tablesjjoonful or so
of grated Parmesan ; i^ress this mixture
through a sieve, and with it fill the patties :
bake on a buttered tin in a fairlv hot oven
for about half an hour, and arrange them
around the dish as desired. Or, make a pate
a chou, with a little water, some flour, enough
butter to produce a good mixture (without a
sign of richness), a pinch of salt and a little
sugar. Let the paste stand to drv a bit, then
add a couple of eggi<. one after the other,
and work it up with a small handful of grat-
ed cheese- and finally, with some ham or
bacon, cut in dice. l)ivide the paste into
small Imiips, roll them on the board- with the
hand, put them into boiling water over the
fire, let the water boil up twice, then draw
the saucepan aside, cover it and let it stand
for ten minutes. Drain off the water, arrange
the quenelles in a gratin dish, sprmkle them
well with grated chee-e, moisten with some
good bechamel, previously reduced, and
gratinez for a quarter of an hour in a moder-
ate oven. Or, fry some bread cut in fancv
shaj^es, strain off the fat, cover them with a
layer of grated Cheshire cheese, sprinkle
with cayenne or paprica, put these into a
gratin dish with some of the butter in which
the crusts have fried, and set them in the
oven. As soon as the chee-e is creamy, serve.
All these garnitures make excellent savor-
ies. The following are some of Urban Dubois'
dilferent varieties of mayonnaise s^iuces.
Th(jugh the main points do not differ greatlv,
they certainly ring pleasant changes : Put
into a bowl the necessary amount of yelks of
eggs, with salt, pepper and mustard ; beat
this up thoroughly with a small whisk, and,
whilst still beating, add alternately oil and
tan-agon vinegar : when the sauce is smooth
and of the proper thickness, add some chop-
])ed tarragon leaves. .4 la tartare : Make a
mayonnaise with four hard-boiled yelks
] tressed through a sieve, mix with three* raw-
yelks, mustard, oil, and vinegar; when
ready, add finely-chopped tarragon leaves,
chervil, chives and parsley, and season thor-
ougiily. .4 V arroicroot : Dissolve m cold
w ater, in a small saucepan, a tablespoonful
of arrowroot or fecula, being verv careful
not to leave any lumps : heat this over a slack
fire till a smooth and fairlv firm paste Ls ob-
tained. Put it into a basin, stir it a while to I
cool it a little, add salt, i;>ep]ier, mustard pow-
der, and three or four raw velks as desired ;
l-eat it up well whilst adding the necessarv
quantity of oil, alternating with sprinklings
of vinegar. Finish this with chopped herbs
as above, and vary them according to taste.
This method of starting the sauce with ar-
rowroot always insures perfect success, and
prevents the sauce from turning. A good
mayonnaise can always be made qtiite stitf
by the addition of cold liquid meat jellv ;
this can be whipped in with the oil and
vinegar, and the basin should stand on ice.
Noques.— Noques are made from a light
sort of pastry, rather after the fashion of
dumplings ; they are somewhat extravagant
where eggs are scarce, as they require a great
number. In Germany thev are made both
salt and sweet, to be served with game, dif-
ferent kinds of soups, etc., or with cream, or
custards for the pudding course. The noques
to be eaten with meat, etc., are le.ss extrava-
gant than the sweet ones. To be eaten with
game, etc. : Grate the crust of some white
rolls, and cut them into small dice to the
weight of about six ounces ; have the same
weight in good beef marrow, and cut it up
in the same way ; stir imo this four whole
eggs. Let it stand for a quarter of an horn,
and work into the mixture a little more than
one ounce of flour ; let this stand for half an
hour. Form the paste into small balls, boil
them slowly for fifteen minutes in some stock :
take them out and strain them, cover them
with hot butter, sprinkle them with grated
bread-raspings, and serve them around the
meat. With Custard: Put into a shallow
saucei an about two ounces sugar with the
grated zest of one lemon ; over this pour a
I int and a half of milk, and let it boil once.
Beat to a I'roth the white of six eggs with just
I over two ounces ];owdered sugar; when the
milk is boiling, drop a tablespoonftil of the
Avhite-of-egg mixture into the liquid, form-
ing balls nearly as large as an egg, but do not
let them adhere to one another. After two
minutes take them out with a strainer ; put
them into a hot dish ; pour off any superflu-
ous milk, retaining only as much 'as will be
needed for the number of persons at table ;
Avith this milk, and about six yelks of eggs
make a thick custard, flavored as desired, and
serve it over the noques. De Bade: Beat
about six ounces butter to a cream ; into this
stir ten eggs, one by one : and after the first,
third, fifth, seventh and ninth, a hea> ed
tal lespoonful of good dry flour, so as to 'use
five of the latter : when the eggs are well in-
corporated with the butter and'flour, add the
whL'jked whites of six eggs. Put into a shal-
low baking dish some boiling milk; into
this drop large tablespoon fuls of the mixture
to form separate noques; cover the dish,
stand it over hot embers, cover the lid with
the same, and let. them braise till the milk
has been absorbed and the noques are slightlv
colored all over. Take them out carefuHv
and serve them with any kind of rich custard.

Cocoanut and Almond Cake.— Two and
one-half cups powdered sugar ; one cup but-
ter ; four full cups prepared flour ; Mhites of
seven eggs, whisked stitf; one small cup of
milk, with a mere pinch of soda ; one grated
cocoanut ; one-half teaspoonful nutmeg ;
juice and half the grated peel of one lemon ;
cream, butter and sugar; stir in lemon and
nutmeg ; mix well : add the milk and whites
and flour alternately. Lastly, stir in the
grated cocoanut swiftly and lightly. Bake in
four jelly-cake tins. Filling— One pound sweet
almonds ; whites of four eggs, whisked stift';
one heaiiing cup powdered sugar; two tea-
spt)onfuls rose-water. Blanch the almonds.
Let them get cold and dry : then pound in a
wedge-wood mortar, adding rose-water as
you go on. Save about two dozen to shred
for the top. Stir the paste into the icing^fter
it is made ; spread between the cooled cakes ;
make that for the top a trifle thicker and lav
it on heavily. When it has stifiencd some-
what, stick the shred almonds closely over it.
Set in the oven to harden, but do not let it
scorch.

Bavarian Strudel.— There are diflferent
kinds of strudel ; the best known is perhaps
the Bavarian. Make a pa«te with one pound
of flour, not quite one-half pound butter,
four whole egg^, the white of one egg. a pinch
of salt and half a tumblerful of water. The
latter should be lukewarm, and the butter
must be melted in the same, so that the
pastry may be ligrht and elastic. Let it stand
when well kneaded for about ten minutes in \
a warm place. Spread a clean cloth over i
the pastry board, cover it with flour, and on
thLs pull out the paste till it forms an oblong
as thin as x>ossible. This is done by tising ;
the two ends of the cloth, and should be ac-
compli'jhed with great rapidity. Have ready
some good apples, peeled, cored, and cut in i
.«mall dice, put them into a basin, cover them
with sugar, and let them stand for twenty '■
minute"*, stirring them frequently during that ,
time. Strain otf the moisture ; ' add the ap- j
pies, a few tablespoonfuls of well-washed
currants (thoroughly dried), and a pinch of j
powdered cinnamon, also some chopped al- |
monds. Spread this mixture lengthwise over {
about two-thirds of the pa-stry only ; sprinkle
it with sugar, fold over the rest of the pastry,
moistening it as you do so with some melted
butter. The strudel must have the appear- j
ance of a thick sausage ; put into a well-but- j
tered baking dish, curling it round in snail- j
like fashion. Brush it with yelk of egg, and
bake it in a fairly hot oven for fony-tive i
minutes. On taking it out sprinkle it with i
sugar, and cut it into thick slices. Another
kind of strudel is made with pastry prepared
as above, and tilled in the same way with a
different mixture, consisting of frangipane
custard, flavored with vanilla and thickened
with chopped almonds, currants, and can-
died peel cut small. Spread it on the pastrj-,
and finish as before.— Lotidoti Queen.
Orleans Cake.— One liberal pound best
flour, dried and sifted ; one pound powdered
sugar ; three-fourths pound butter, rubbed to
a cream with the fugar; six eggs, beaten
light, and the yelks strained ; one cup cream ;
one glass best brandy ; one teaspoonful mix-
ed mace and cinnamon ; one teaspoonful
soda, dissolved in hot water ; two teasy)oon- ■
fuLs cream tartar, sifted with flour. Add the
strained yelks to the creamed butter and i
sugar ; to this, the cream and soda ; then, in I
alternate supplies, the whites and flour; 1
finally, spice and brandy. Beat up hard for
three "minutes, and bakein two square loaves.
The oven should not be too quick, but steady.
Cover with paper if the cake shows signs of
cnistiness on tne top before it has risen to the
proper height. It should bake one hour.
Cover with lemon frosting when it is cool.
It is a good cake, and keeps well.
Punch Souffle a la Francaise.— Pour a
pint of perfectly boiling water on two ounces
of good tea, and let it infuse for five minutes ;
then strain it off" and let it get cool. Whip \
four raw yelks of eggs for five minutes with '
three ounces of sugar, the strained juice ot
one large or two small lemons, and a spoon-
ful or so of arrack or good rum, and to this j
add the cold tea, gradually whipping it all i
the time ; then stram it, add to it half a pint j
of very thick and stiffly whipped cream, put I
it into a ready-i>aperea souffle mould, and !
freeze in the charged ice cave for two or three
hours. The great point to oljserve in making
this punch is to have the tea good, and to be
particular as to the water, which mast be
freshly boiled and just boiling when poured
on the tea leaves.
Sultana Cake.— Four cups flour ; one cup
butter ; three cups powdered sugar ; eight
eggs, beaten light ; strain the yelks ; one cup
cream or rich milk ; one pound sultana
(seedless) raisins dredged thickly; one tea-
spoonful soda dissolved in hot water; two
smaller teaspoonfuls of cream tartar; one-half
grated nutmeg and one-half teaspoonful cin-
namon ; cream the butter and sugar ; sift the
cream tartar with the flour. Dredge the
raisins with flour when you have picked
them over with great care, washed and dried
them. Mix the beaten yelks with the cream-
ed butter and sugar, then the spice and
brandy. Beat three minutes and stir in the
cream" or milk lightly with the soda-water.
Put in first a handlul of one and then a spoon-
ful of the other, the flour and whipped
whites, at last beat in the fruit. Bake m four
smaU loaves. They are safer in baking and
can be cut more 'economically, especially
where the family Is not large. It is better to
cut up the whole of a small cake for one
meal than to halve or quarter a large one,
since the outer slices must be drj- at the next
cutting and are wasted, to say nothing of the
etfect of the air upon the whole of the ex-
posed interior. The sultana must be baked
slowly and carefully, and like all fruit-cakes,
longer than a plain one. Ice thickly. It will
keep very well.
Coffee Cake.— Five cups flour dried and
sifted ; one -cup butter ; two cups sugar ; one
cup molasses ; one cup made black coffee,
the best quality ; one-half pound raisins,
seeded and minced : one-half pound cur-
rants, washed and dried ; one-fourth pound
citron, chopped fine ; three eggs, beaten very
light ; one-half teaspoonful cinnamon ; one-
half teaspoonful mace ; one-fourth teaspoon-
ful cloves; one teaspoonful— a full one — of
saleratus ; cream the butter and sugar, warm
the molasses slightly, and beat these with the
spices hard for five minutes until the mix-
ture is very light. Next, put in the yelks,
the coffee, and when these are well mixed,
the flour in turn with the whipped whites.
Next, the .saleratus dissolved in hot water,
and the fruit all mixed together, and dredge
well with flour. Beat up very thoroughly
and bake in two loaves, or in small round
tins. The flavor of this cake is pecuUar, but
to most palates very pleasant. Wrap in a
thick cloth as soon 'as it is cold enough to
put away without danger of " sweating," and
shut within your cake box, as it soon loses
the aroma of the cotfee if exposed to the air.
Scotch Marmalade. — To every potind of
Seville oranges put one lemon and two quarts
of water, and boil them for two hours ; then
change the water and boil until quite soft ;
cut them in half, take out the pulp carefully,
and remove the seeds ; cut the peel into verj^
thin slices, and return it to the pulp. To
every pound of fruit allow two pounds of
sugar ; put a pint of the water the oranges
were first boiled in to the sugar, mix the
Avhole together, and boil twenty minutes, or
until the marmalade is clear.
Buttermilk Creams. — Ta'je a quart or two,
according to quantity required, of freshly
churned buttermilk ; tie it iip In a cloth, and
hang it over a basin for three or four days
till the whey has all run from it, and onlv the
curd remains in the cloth. Beat the curd
with a w^hisk, with either raspberry jam or
fresh raspberries. If the latter, a g'ood deal
of white poimded sugar should be added ;
if the former, a little sugar will do. Send to
table heaped m jelly glasses.

Children flust Have Sleep.— " A healthy
inl'ant sleeps most of the time during the first
few weeks, "says the Nov York State Medical
Journal, "and in the early years people are
disposed to let children sleep as they will.
But from six or seven years old, when school
begins, this sensible policy comes to an end,
and sleep is put off persistently through all
the years up to manhood and womanhood.
At the age of ten or eleven the child is al-
lowed to sleep only eight or nine hours,
when its parents should insist on its having
what it absolutely needs, which is ten or
eleven at least. Up to twenty a youth needs
nine hours sleep, and an adult should have
eight. Insufficient sleep is one of the crying
evils of the day. The \rant of proper rest
and normal conditions of the nervous sys-
tem, and especially the brain, produces a
lamentable condition, deterioration in both
body and mind, and exhaustion, excitability
and intellectual disorders are gradually tak-
ing the place of the love of work, general
well being, and the spirit of initiative."
Singing for Health.— Singing is highly
recommended as a nerve tonic, and justly.
It is noticeable that birds are silent when
they are sad, and unless they can be coaxed
to sing they pine away. Human will and
reason can rise superior to inclination, and
force from the very talons of distress that
with which to con(|uer it. When the world
looks bleak and affairs go wrong sing "The
Star-Spaugled Banner" at the full compass
of your voice. If you sing it e very morning
the neighbors wiirbeeome used to' it. Plain-
tive songs are not to be encouraged unless one
has surplus vitality to get rid of; but no mat-
ter how much or how little voice you have,
let it out in a ballad or carol now'and then,
or join the church choral society to improve
your spirits, both by the vocal exercise and
the social intercourse with healthy and ac-
tive persons. All social gatherings where
early hours are kept are beneficial. If, as a
great psychologist declares, "happiness is
health," we need to go where enjoyment is
and catch some of it when we feel "like im-
muring ourselves in solitude and nursing our
misery.— .47/i€rica7i.
The Evils Resulting from Drinking Al=
coholic Preparations.— A writef in France
says that the manufacture and consumption
of alcohol in that country is degrading the
people mentally, morally and physically, re-
filling the hospitals, asylums aiul prisons.
These physical wrecks bring into the world
miserable offspring which inherit a weak
body and soon show the tastes of their
paren ts.—The Health Magazine.
Benefits of a Heat Diet.— In older coun-
tries the lower orders, as a rule, have but a
low vitality. It may be truer to say that the
vital volition is weak. Let the learned settle
the definition. The fact is easily accounted
for. During generations up<m generations
the majority of European agricultural popu-
lations lived upon vegetable food, like the
majority of Eastern Asiatics, and with the
same result. Hard labor produces hard mus-
cles, but vegetable food yields a low vital
tension, so to say. Soldiers know it well
enough. The pale-faced city clerk who eats
meat twice a day will outfight and outla.st
and outstarve the burly laborer whose big
thews and sinews are mostly compounded
of potatoes, corn and water.— The Century.
Pineapple a Remedy in Diphtheria.— A
physician of our acquaintance was recently
tre'atingacaseof diphtherir inaboy of eleven
years, using the ordinary treatnient, with
gargles, etc., the case recovering in about the
usual time, when a younger child, aged two
years, contracted the disease. The child re-
belled against the administration of all rem-
edies. No medicines were given, excepting
occasionally when the child called for a
drink a small amount of the solution of
aconite and Phytolacca that had been pre-
pared was added to the water. The throat
revealed the ashen-gray exudation, and very
soon all the typical sym'ptoms were manifest.
Sliced pineapple was given the patient, and
was continued from day to day in consider-
able quantity, a keen relish for the same
being marked. The recovery was unevent-
ful, no medicine having been adnr.nistered.
— Eclectic Medical Journal.
Where the pineapple cannot be had the
pure juice may be used instead, as this is
now preserved by the sterilizing process and
may be purchased either in the syrup or the
pure juice.
riusic as a Hedicine. — Much attention has
been given lately to the power of music as a
curative agent. " One experimenter has dis-
covered that music affects the heart, stimu-
lating the action of the blood and causing it
to coincide with changes in breathing. An-
other says that the functional acti(jn of the
skin is increased by music. A Vienna doctor
has used music as a medicine when patients
were in trances, and proved that a man with-
out music in his soul does not exist. One
man, aged forty, normally insensiblt to music,
was hypnotized and had a ^Yagner selection
played in his hearing. His pulse and respira-
tion increased, and when aroused he stated
that he had not heard the music as sound,
but only as a general sensation, a feeling like
rushing through space.
Baths : their Temperature.— A bath must
never be earlier than two hours after eating.
A hot bath varies from 98° to 110° F. A warm
bath varies from 85° to 98° F. A tepid bath
varies from 70° to 85° F. In giving a cold
bath wrap the patient in a sheet or blanket
and put him into the bath with the water at
70° F., then gradually lower the temperature
of the water by adding ice or cold water.
When taken out of the bath the wet blanket
should be replaced by a dry one, the patient
carried to bed and Avi'ped dry. Have at hand
some hot drink — whisky and hot water,
brandy, gin, coffee, tea— to be given in case
the patient feels chilly. Take the tempera-
ture and pulse before and after the bath.
The length of time to keep the patient in a
cold bath is from five to twenty minutes.
Flaxseed Poultice.— Take a clean dish or
bowl, pour in boiling water, stir the flaxseed
meal slowly into the water (use a large
spoon) so as to prevent the formation of
lumps; when it is stiff" enough not to run
freely, spread between two layers of old mus-
lin, folding the edges over so as to avoid
soiling the skin or clothing.
Accidents from Fire. — If the clothing
catches fire throw the person down and roll
him in a strip of rag carpet, shawl, coat or
blanket. If one be compelled to pa.ss through
sulphur fumes or smoke, a wet cloth or hand-
kerchief should be held over the mouth.

Fomentations or Stupes.— Get some coarse
white flannel or old (white) blanket (the
dyes of colored flannels, etc., are apt to poison
the skin). Place the flannel in the mid-
dle of a towel, both should be dipped in a
basin of boiling water for a few minutes;
twist the ends of the towel in opposite direc-
tions until all the water is wrung out, then
carry the fomentation to the bedside, un-
twist the towel, shake out the flannel thor-
oughly before applying it to the skin, cover
the fomentation (wet flannel) witli dry flan-
nel or towels and a piece of rubber cloth (oil-
cloth, such as used on kitchen tables, if one
be unable to procure rubber cloth), both flan-
nel and rubber cloth should be larger than
the fomentation ; apply a bandage to keep in
position. In renewing the fomentation have
the fresh oxe ready before removing the cool
one. Laudanum "and turpentine stupes are
prepared in the same way as the preceding ;
when the flannel has been wrung out of the
water sprinkle the laudanum (15 to 20 drop.s)
over it. For the turpentine stupe sprinkle
30 drops on the flannel. When stupes are
discontinued the part must be dried and cov-
ered with flannel or a towel for a time, and
afterward bathed with alcohol or whisky,
which will be a preventive against cold.
Sulfonal for Vomiting and Sea Sickness.
—Dr. S. E. Burroughs writes enthusiastically
of its ability to relieve the most obstinate
forms of vomiting. He says : " Sulfonal will
itop vomiting of almost any character the
quickest, safest and surest of any remedy in
the category of medicine." In 10 to 15-gfain
doses, dissolved in boiling water, and given
as hot as the patient can bear it, he has never
failed to relieve the vomiting of pregnancy
and hiccough. Dr. Shaw Mackenzie, of Lou-
don, advises the use of sulfonal in 5 to 15-
grain doses in cases of so-called train sick-
ness, or the sickness from which people of
delicate constitutions often sufl'er. He also
urges a trial of this remedy just before em-
barking for an ocean voyage, and later on,
as the occasion may demand.

A Sure Relief for Choking.— Immediately
reverse the upright position of the body, sup-
ported by the hands and fret elevated,'when
instant relief will be obtained and the ob-
struction will fall from the mouth. A child
can be seized by the legs and head turned
down, and relief will be instantaneous.
Several lives have been saved in this com-
munity by this treatment, and several grate-
ful letters have been received from other
States advising f)f its success when death
seemed inevitable.— ira.'-'/i/?;^7^)7( ]'of<t.
To Remove Dirt or Qrime from the Skin.
—Rub the skin (using white flannel or a soft
rag) thoroughly with cold cream or a fresh
preparation of cocoa butter, after which wash
with hot water and soap.
Apples Give Health and Beauty.— The re-
medial use of apples is worthy of notice.
Chemically the apple is composed of vege-
table fibre, albumen, sugar, gum, chlorophyl-
malic acid, gallic acid, lime and much water.
Furthermore, the German analysts say that
the apple contains a larger percentage of
phosphorous than any other iruit or vegeta-
ble. The phosphorous is admirably adapted
for renewing the essential nervous matter-
lecithin — of the brain and spinal cord. It is
perhaps for the same reason, rudely under-
stood, that old Scandanavian traditions
represent the apple as the food of the gods,
who, when they felt themselves to be grow-
ing feeble and infirm, resorted to this fruit,
renewing their powers of mind and body.
Also the acids of the apple are of singular
use for men of sedentary habits, whose liv-
ers are sluggish in action, those acids serving
to eliminate from the body noxious matters,
which, if retained, would make the brain
heavy and dull, or bring about jaundice or
skin eruptions and other allied troubles.
Some such experience must have led to the
custom of taking apple-sauce with roast pork,
rich goose and other like dishes. The malic
acid of ripe apples, either raw or cooked, will
neutralize any excess of chalky matter en-
gendered by eating too much meat. It is
also the fact that such ripe fruits as the
apple, the pear and the plum, when taken
ripe and without sugar, diminish acidity in
the stomach, rather than provoke it. Their
vegetable sauces and juices are converted
into alkali carbonates, by the chemical action
of stomach juices, which tend to counteract
acidity.— .LVo/'/Zi American Practitioner.
Sulphur a Remedy for Diphtheria.— Sul-
phur is highly praised as a specific in diph-
theria by Dr. Fugate in the Medical Summary.
He savs that in 1854, after all means for the
relief of a child moribund with the disease
had been tried he placed about a teaspoonful
of pulverized sulphur in a small plate and
water in another, then with a small swab
swabbed the fauces until a large portion of
the sulphur had been taken up. The child,
after several efforts, swallowed and continued
to do so for about ten minutes. He then gave
about three grains of sulphur and a spoonful
of strong toddy ; the child screamed ; it was
then placed to its mother's breast and imme-
diately commenced nursing, and in ten min-
utes more was asleep breathing easily and
naturally. Ten cases more were treated the
same way and in the same manner, only that
the toddy was omitted, except in bad cases.
Since then he has used it in over six hun-
dred cases and never lost a patient.
Blooming Plants and Perfumes Healthful
in Dwelling=Houses.— Dr. Andres {Canad.
I^-ac.) claims the discovery that blooming
plants supply ozone to the atmosphere, and
are hence healthful in dwelling-houses. Other
experiments state that flower odors destroy
many microbes. Cloves will kill certain
germs in twenty-five minutes, cinnamon in
twelve, and thyme in thirty-five. Thejcom-
mon wild verbena destroys the same germs
in forty-five minutes, the geranium in fifty
minutes. The typhoid fever bacillus is de-
stroyed by cinnamon essence in twelve min-
utes'. This is the most effective of all odors.
Treatment for Colic— Apply warm flan-
nel to the abdomen and warmth to the lieet ;
rub the abdomen twice daily with warm
sweet oil ; give ten drops of gin or brandy in
a teaspoonful of warm sweetened water— or
give a small teaspoonful of hot soda-mint.

The Benefit of Resting a Day in Bed.— We
are naturally given to condemn and despise
the idea of remaining in bed when our health
is good and all our vital forces are in fair
working order. Apart from the matter of our
nightly rest, we rarely think of "a day in
bed " either as preservative of health or con-
ducive to longevity. Yet we are convinced
there is much to be said in favor of "a day
in bed" now and then, as an aid to health
in the middle age and as a measure tending
to prolong life in the old. In bed the whole
muscular system is at ease and the wear and
tear of the'body is reduced to a minimum.
The processes of getting rid of waste matters
are in abeyance ; there is less waste to get
rid of, and lungs, skin and kidneys have a
measure of comparative repose. The ner-
vous system, above all, is soothed and com-
forted "by " the day in bed." Anxieties and
worries disappear after the rest, and the in-
dividual returns to the workaday world re-
freshed and renovated, physically and men-
tally, in a degree such as the actions of no
medicines could have accomplished. In a
word, the person who enjoys " a day in bed "
is in the position of an engine whose fires are
banked down and whose energies are recruit-
ing for the reuewal of the work of to-mor-
row.— Health Bulletin.
Summer Diarrhoea of Young Children.—
Have the druggist prepare a mixture of sub-
nitrate of bismuth thirty grains, salol three
grains and cinnamon water four ounces —
give a teaspoonful every half hour until four
doses are taken, then once even,- hour or two.
Give no food except boiled milk or boiled
water, half and half of each. For the thirst
give slippery-elm tea, made as follows : place
two ounces" of slippery-elm bark (broken)
into a pint of cola water, let simmer and
boil for two minutes, strain and cool. If the
milk disagree discontinue, and give the slip-
pery-elm tea, a tablespoonful, with five drops
of brandy every hour or so.
Treatment for Croup.— A sponge moist-
ened with hot water may be applied to the
throat, or the child may" be placed in a hot
bath. If these measures"fail, give a teaspoon-
ful each (mix together) of powdered alum
and the syrup of ipecac. If needed, repeat
the dose in half an hour.
To Cure Toothache.— Twist absorbent cot-
ton on the end of a wooden toothpick or
matchstick, then dip the cotton end of the
stick into tincture of iodine, and paint the
gum surrounding the aching tooth. Do not
smear the mouth or tongue with the iodine
as it is apt to produce a blister.
A Remedy for Black Eye.— There is noth-
ing to compare with the tincture or strong
infusi<m of capsicum annum mixed with an
equal bulk of mucilage or gum-arabic with
the addition of a few drops of glycerine.
This should be painted over the bruised sur-
face with a camel's-hair pencil and allowed
to dry on, a second or third coating being
applied as soon as the first is drv. If this is
done as soon as the injury is inflicted it will
invariably prevent blackening of the bruised
tissue. The same remedy has no equal in
rlu'umatic sore or stiff neck.— Medical Pro-
gress.
To Keep Horses from Balling.— Many per-
sons, compelled at this season to drive over
snowy roads, will )je ghid to learn that when
flyce"rine is applied to the soles of the horses'
oofs, "balling" is efl'ectually prevented. —

I Feather Beds Injurious to Health.— " The
i use of feather beds is very common in this
country-, especially in th"e rural districts,"
says Dr. Lafayette Byon, of hospital reform
fame, " yet there can be no doubt that they
are injurious to health. To the invalid and
j to young persons who are disposed to distor-
tio"n of the spine and shoulders they are par-
ticularly hurtful. Such as consider them a
necessa"ry luxury in winter should invariably
exchang"e them' for a mattress in the spring
\ and summer. The injury resulting from
feather beds is occasioned principally by
their accumulating too much heat about the
' body, and in this manner causing a profuse
\ and"debilitating perspiration, and impairing
i the physiological power of resistance to
slight changes of temperature. By yielding
unequally to "the pressure of the" body the
latter is thrown into a distorted position,
liable to cause permanent deformities in the
young and the weak. If your means will
hot permit the purchase of hair mattresses,
those of straw or Spanish moss will be found
an excellent substitute. The use of bed
curtains should be avoided ; they do much
mischief by preventing the free "circulation
of the air."
I Glycerine for Sore Throat and Coughing.
—A foreign medical journal is authority for
the statement that a tablespoonful of giyce-
I rine in hot milk or cream will at once" re-
lieve the most violent attack of coughing.
This is a simple, easily obtained and harm-
less remedy, and if it keeps good its promise
I will prove to be of great value. Equally
simple and quite as effective is the use o'f
glycerine spray through an atomizer. This
is applied directly to the infiamed or irritated
surfaces, and giv'es almost instant relief. In
: attacks of influenza, cold in the head, sore
throat and like trouWes, glycerine mixed
with three times ifs bulk of water, boiled
and cooled, is an invaluable remedy.
To Relieve Insomnia.— Victims of insom-
nia should avail themselves of the circum-
stances that repletion causes somnolence,
and postpone the [>rincipal meal— call it din-
ner or supper— to the end of the day. From
; eighty to one hundred million men, in an
I age far surpassing the present era for health
] worship and sanitary insight, followed that
I plan for more than a thousand years. From
i 800 B. C. to the third century of our chrono-
logical era the one-meal system prevailed all
over Euroi e and the Helenized portions of
Western Asia, and that one meal was eaten
at the end of the working dav, and after the
baths and outdoor sports that assembled
Eleasure-seekers in the cool of the evening,
ike the dinners of Frederick the Great
these symposia were something more than
mass-meeting lunches. The guests took their
time, spiced their food with anecdotes and
masticated at leisure, sometimes— too often ■
in the luxurious era of the Roman Empire-
yielded to the temptation of dietetic ex-
cesses ; but on rising from the banquet went
straight to their dormitories, and could sleep
as only men sleep who have dismissed the
cares of the day.—H'alth Culture.
For Faintn.ess, Weakness or Heart Fail=
j ure.— First of all, lie fiat on the back ; take
I twenty drops of aromatic spirits of ammonia
in a tablesiioonful of cold water everv fifteen
minutes until the lips regain their "natural
color. Every half hour take half a teaspoon-
ful of Hoffman's anodyne in a little cold
water.

SICK=ROOM DIETARY.
Hints for the Sick=Room.— One of the first
concerns of a nurse should be to see that the
patient's mouth is kept clean and sweet. This
can be done by having the mouth rinsed with
pure water or diluted listerine— two tea-
spoonfuls to a tumbler of water— after each
taking of food. If the patient is unable to do
this for himself the attendant should do it
for him. with a swab of fresh absorbent cot-
ton, moistened with the raouth-wash, and
fastened to a small, flexible stick. A foul
or .«our mouth frequently so interferes with
the appetite and the seri>e of taste that the
patient refuses food which otherwise he
might gladly take. Milk especially lingers
in the mouth, and fermenting there destroys
the sense of taste and develojis germs which
interfere with digestion. It is much easier
to keep the mouth clean than to disinfect it
after it has been neglected. In case the pa-
tient's lips are dry or parched they should
be moistened with cold cream or vaseline.
Glycerine should never be used for this pur-
pose. When it is necessary to raise the pa-
tient's head, in order to give him nourish-
ment or medicine, the attendant's hand
should be placed beneath the pillow, so as
gently to raise the head and pillow together.
In this way a better support is obtained, the
operation is more comfortable for the patient,
and the head is less likely to be bent so far
forward as to interfere with swallowing.
Serious coughing may often be prevented
by making sure that each each mouthful is
swallowed before another is given. A small
tumbler should be used and never should be
more than two-thirds tilled. A thirsty patient
derives far more satisfaction from draining a
small glass than from sipping from a large
one which he is not permitted to empty.
When the patient is being fed with fluids,
wholly difljerent receptacles should be u.sed
for holding his medicines, or the association
of ideas may be strong enough to destrov the
appetite, or even produce nausea. This dan-
ger of unpleasant association should never
be lost sight of by the nurse. Nourishment
should never be offered at inopportune times,
and if anything has occurred which might
have soiled the attendant's hands he should
not only wash them, but allow the patient to
see that he has done so.
In serious cases only need the patient be
aroused from sleep to take nourishment or
medicine.
During the night food of some sort should
always be at hand to be given to the patient
in case he should need it.— Yout/is Companion.
Temperature of the Sick-Room.— For lung
troubles the temperature should be kept at
seventy degrees Fahrenheit night and dav ;
for fevers a lower temperature is desirable,
about sixty-five degrees Fahrenheit. Dry air,
which is irritating, can be made moist by
keeping a kettle (jf boiling water in the room.
Air the Sick=Room.— Cover the head and
body of the patient with a fold of blanket or
other woolen material ; open the windows
top or bottom, for a few minutes night and
morning, to purify the atmosphere of the
room. Do not rem(A'e the covering until the
temperature of the room has reached seventy
degrees.
Toast Water.— Twa.'^t three slices ot stale
bread to dark brown, but do not burn. Put
into pitcher; puur over them a quart of boil-
ing water : cover closely and let stand on ice
until cold ; strain. May add wine and sugar.
Rice Water.— Pick over and wash two
tablespoons rice ; put into granite saucepan
with quart of boiling water ; simmer two
hours, when rice should be softened and par-
tially dissolved ; strain, add saltspoon of salt ;
serve warm or cold. May add sherry or port,
two tablespoonfuls.
Gutn=Arabic Water.— Dissolve one ounce
of gum-arabic in jAnt of boiling water ; add
two tablespoons of sugar, wineglass of sherry
and juice of large lemon ; cool, add ice.
Barley Water.— Wash two ounces fwine-
glassful) pearl barley with cold water: boil
five minutes in fresh water ; throw both
waters away; pour on two quarts boiling
water; boil down to a quart; flavor with
thinly-cut lemon-rind ; add sugar to taste ;
do not strain unless at the patient's request.
Egg Water.— Stir whites of two eggs into
half a pint of ice water without beating ; add
enough salt or sugar to make palatable.
Flaxseed Tea. — Flaxseed, whole, one
ounce; white sugar, one ounce (heaping
tablespoon); liquorice-root, half ounce (two
small sticks); lemon juice, four tablespoons.
Pour on these materials two pints boiling
water; let stand in hot place four hours;
strain otf the liquor.
Sterilized Milk.- Put the required amount
of milk in clean bottles. (If for infants,
each bottle holding.enoughforone feeding.)
Plug mouths lightly with rubber stoppers ;
immerse to shoulders in kettle of cold water ;
boil twenty minutes ; or better, steam thirty
minutes in ordinary steamer ; push stoppers
in firmly, cool bottles rapidly and keep in re-
frigerator. Warm each bottle before using.
Peptonized Milk: Cold Process.— In a
clean quart bottle put one peptonizing pow-
der (extract of pancreas five grains, bicar-
bonate of soda fifteen grains) or the contents
of one peptonizing tube (Fairchild); add one
teacup cold water, shake ; add pint of fresh,
cold milk, shake the mixture again. Place
on ice ; use when required without subject-
ing to heat. Warm Process.— Mix pepton-
izing powder with water and milk as de-
scribed above ; place bottle in w ater so hot
that the whole hand can be held in it for a
minute without discomfort ; keep the bottle
there ten minutes; then put on ice to check
further digestion. Do not heat long enough
to render milk bitter.
Milk and Egg.— Beat milk with salt to
taste ; beat white-of-egg till stiff; add egg to
milk and stir.
Peptonized Milk Toast.— Over two slices
of toast pour gill of peptonized milk (cold
process); let stand on the hob for thirtv min-
utes. Serve warm, or strain and serve fluid
portion alone. Plain, light sponge cake may
be similarly digested.
Baked Flour Porridge.— Take one pint
flour and pack tightly in small muslin bag ;
throw into boiling water and boil five or six
hours ; cut off the outer sodden portion, grate
the hard core fine; blend thoroughlv with a
little milk, and stir into boiling mll'k to the
desired thickness.
Rum Punch.— White sugar, two teaspoons ;
one egg, stirred and beaten up; warm milk,
large v» iueglass ; Jamaica rum, two to four
teasfwons ; nutmeg.
Lime Water.— Pour two quarts of boiling
water over fresh unslaked lime the size of a
walnut ; stir until slaked ; let stand until
clear, after which bottle.

Meat Cure.— Procure slice of steak from
top of round — fresh meat without fat : cut
meat into strips, removing all fat, gristle, etc.,
with knife. I\it meat through mincer at
least twice. The pulp must then be well
beaten up in roomy saucepan with cold water
or skimmed beef tea to consistency of cream.
The right proportion is one teaspoon of liquid
to eight of pulp : add black pepper and salt
to taste ; stir mince briskly with wooden
spoon the whole time it is cooking, over slow
fire or on cool part of covered range, till hot
through and through and the red color dis-
appears. This requires about one-half hour.
When done it should be a soft, smooth, stitf
pur*Je of the consistencv of a thick paste.
Serve hot. Add for first few meals the softly-
poached white-of-an-egg.
Cream Soup.— Take one quart of good stock
(mutton or veal), cut one onion into quarters
slice three potatoes very thin, and put them
into the stock with a small piece of mace ;
boil gently for an hour; then strain out
the onion'and mace: the potatoes should,
bv this time, have dissolved in the stock.
Add one pint of milk, mixed with a ven,-
little corn flour to make it about as thick
as cream. A little butter improves it. This
soup may be made with milk instead of stock,
if a little cream is used.
Apple Soup.— Two cups of apple ; two cups
of water : two teaspoons of corn-starch : one
and ene-half tablespoons of sugar ; one salt-
spoon of cinnamon and a bit of salt. Stew
the apple in the water until it is very soft,
then mix together into a smooth paste the
corn -starch, sugar, salt and cinnamon with a
little cold water; pour this into the apple
and boil for five minutes ; strain it and keep
hot until ready to serve. May serve ^^ ith hot
buttered sippets.
Clam Broth.— Wash thoroughly six large
clams in shell ; put in kettle with one cup
cold water ; bring to boil and keep there one
minute ; the shells open, the water takes up
the proper quantity of juice, and the broth is
ready to pour off and serve hot.
Beef Tea with Acid. — One and a half
p)ounds beef (round) cut in small pieces:
same quantity of ice, broken small. Let stand
in deep vessel twelve hours. Strain thor-
oughlv and forcibly through coarse towel.
Boil quickly ten miiiutes in porcelain vessel.
Let cool. Add half tea=;poonful of acid (or
acid phosphate) to the pint.
Mutton Broth.— Lean loin of mutton, one
and one-half pounds, including bone: water,
three pints. Boil gently till tender, throwing
in a little salt and onion according to ta.«te.
Pour out broth into basin : when cold, skim
off fat. Warm up as wanted.
Chicken Broth.— Skin, and chop up small,
a little chicken or half a large fowl ; boil it,
bones and all, with a blade of mace, a sprig
of parsley, one tablespoon of rice, and a crust
of bread", in a quart of water, for an hour,
skimming it from time to time. Strain
through coarse colander.
Beef Juice. — Cut a thin, juicy steak into
pieces one and one-half inches square : brown
separately one and one-half minutes on each
side before a hot fire ; squeeze in a hot lemon-
squeezer ; flavor with salt and pepper. May
add to milk or pour on toast.
Raw Meat Diet.— Scrape pulp from a good
steak, season to taste, smear on thin slices of
bread ; sear bread slightly and serve as sand-
wich.
Peptonized Oysters.— Mince six large or
twelve small oysters ; add to them, in their
own liquor, five grains of extract of pancreas
with fifteen grains of bicarbonate of soda (or
one Fairchild peptonizing tube). The mix-
ture IS then brought to blood heat, and main-
tained, with occasional stirring, at that tem-
perature thirty minutes, when one pint of milk
is added and 'the temperature kept up ten to
twenty minutes. Finally the mass is brought
to boiling point, strained and served. Gela-
tin may be added, and the mixture served
cold as a jelly. Cooked tomato, onion, celery
or other flavoring suited to individual taste
may be added at beginning of the artificial
digestion.
Beef Tea.— Free a pound of lean beef from
fat, tendon, cartilage, bone and vessels ; chop
up fine, put into a pint of cold water to digest
two hours. Simmer on range or stove three
hours, but do not hoV. Make up for water
lost by adding cold water, so that a pint of
beef tea represents one pound of beef. Press
beef carefully and strain.
Nutritious Coffee.— Dissolve a little isin-
glass or gelatin (Knox) in water; put half an
ounce freshly-ground coftee into saucepan
j with one pint of new milk, which should be
nearlv boiling before the cofiee is added ;
boil both together for three minutes : clear it
by pouring some of it into a cup and dashing
it"back again ; add the isinglass, and leave it
to settle on the hob for a few minutes. Beat
up an e^g in a breakfast cup. and pour the
coffee upon it; if preferred, drink without
the egg.
Koumiss.— Take ordinar^' beer bottle with
shifting cork : put in it one pint milk, one-
sixth cake of Fleischman's yeast, or one
tablespoon of fresh lager beer yeast (brew-
er's), one-half tablespoon white sugar reduced
to syrup ; shake well and allow to stand in
refrigerator two to three days, when it may
be used. It will keep there indefinitely if
laid on its side. Much waste can be saved by
preparing the bottles with ordinan,- corks
wired in position and drawing off the kou-
miss with a champagne tap.
Wine Whey.— Put two pints new milk in
saucepan, and stir over clear fire until nearly
boiling ; than add gill (two wineglassfuls) of
sherry, and simmer a quarter of an hour,
skimming off curd as it rises. Add a table-
spoon more sherry, and skim again for a few
minutes ; strain through coarse muslin. May
use two tablespoons of lemon juice instead
of wine.
Junket. — Take half a pint fresh milk,
heated lukewarm : add one teaspoon essence
of pepsin and stir just enou§:h to mix. Pour
into custard cups, let stand till firmly curded ;
serve plain or with sugar and grated nutmeg.
May add sherry.
Egg Lemonade.— Beat one egg with one
! tablespoon sugar until very light ; stir in
i three tablespoons cold water and juice of
I small lemon : fill glass with pounded ice and
I drink through straw.
j Egg Nog.— Scald some new milk by putting
I it, contained in a jug, into a saucepan of boil-
ing water, hut do not aUoic it to boil. When
cold, beat up fresh egg with fork in a tumbler
, with some sugar ; beat to a froth, add a des-
i sertspoon of brandy, and fill up tumbler with
scalded milk.
Champagne Whey.— Boil half-pint milk :
strain through cheese-cloth ; add wineglass of
I champagne.

HE LAUREL HILL CEMETERY is the oldest suburban
Cemetery in the United States with the exception of
Mt. Auburn, in Boston. Founded in 1835, it has long been
famous among the places of interest in Philadelphia for
^^ the natural beauty of its site and scenery (embellished
^^ by much skill and labor), the magnificence and variety of its mon-
^L uments, and the names of the distinguished dead who lie buried
within its walls. Occupying one of the most exquisite situations
in the neighborhood of Philadelphia, on the high and wooded bank
of the Schuylkill River (adjoining East and opposite West Fair-
^ mount Park), it is easily reached on foot as well as by steamboat,
^ trolley car and carriage {via drives in the East Park), and steam
^ cars {via Pennsylvania Railroad from Broad and Market Streets, to
Ridge Avenue Station, a few squares from the Cemetery, and via
Reading Railroad from depots Twelfth and Market Streets and
^^ Twenty-third and Chestnut Streets to station on the Cemetery
^^ ground). It is peculiarly and perfectly protected from encroach-
^ ments by its surroundings, having Ridge Avenue on the east, the
^ river on the west, and the Park on the remaining sides.
^ The prices of lots range from 58^^ cents to 13.00 per square foot, ^
^ according to location ; and the sizes from eight feet by ten feet, to ^
♦ any size desired, so that lots can be purchased from about ^55.00 to Y
almost any sum. ^r

The management wish to call the attention of visitors and lot-
holders to the fact that in the grounds of the Cemetery they have a
^ large and well-stocked greenhouse, in the charge of an experienced
^ gardener, who can furnish Plants, Cut Flowers, Crosses, Wreaths, ^^
^L etc., at short notice and at reasonable prices, and who can arrange ^^
^ to take the care of lots and do desired decoration at a reasonable J
J yearly charge. Lo^s can be obtained at the Cemetery or at Com- J

PHILADELPHIA COnnERCIAL MUSEUH.
The Philadelphia Commercial Museum is
a dei artmeut of the Philadelphia Mu.-eum,
established by ordinance of Councils in
June, 1894. The purpose of the Miaseum is
to bring the resources of the world before
American manufacturers and business men,
and to guide them properly towards the ex-
tension of foreign markets for their products.
The Dei)artm'ent of Raw Products in the
Museum comprises collections of natural
products from all countries of the world, such
as have already entered our markets or may
be made available for them. The collections
of woods, wools, fibres, dye-stuffs, tan-barks,
resin^, oils, etc., are the most complete in
the United States.
The Department of Foreign :Manufaetures
consists of samples of goods and products
manufactured abroad for markets in which
American goods should compete. With each
sample is found full information concerning
the details of manufacture and the market's
where sold.
The Bureau of Information studies and in-
vestigates all foreign markets, and makes
detailed and specific reports concerning the
introduction therein of American manufac-
tures.
The Museum is governed by a Board of
Trustees comprising the Governor of Penn-
sylvania, the Mayor of Philadelphia, several
State and city officials, and a body of private
citizens representing the best interests of
Philadelphia. It is also under the general
supervision of a National Advisory Board,
made up of delegates appointed from the
principal commercial organizations of the
I'nited States and many foreign countries.
The Museum is located at No. 233 South
Fourth street; and is op)en every week-day.

Baseball Championship.
Baseball was played without much regard
to rule previous to 1857. From that year to
the close of the season of 1875 the laws of the
National Association governed. In 1871 the
first regular championship schedule was
played. In 1876 the National League was
organized, and in 1881 a rival was born in
the American Association. The Union Asso-
ciation was organized in 1884, ostensibly in
opposition to the working of the reserve rule
in the National League and American Asso-
ciation. It lasted but one season, the St. Louis
Club winning the pennant.
In the fall of 1889 the Players' National
League was organized as the outcome of the
Brotherhood of Baseball Players. It proved
a financial failure. The Boston Club won the
pennant with a percentage of .628. Brooklyn
was second, and then followed New York,
Chicago, Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Cleveland
and Buffalo in the order named. The gate
receipts did not pay salaries, and the capi-
talists were obliged to go deep down into
their pockets to satisfy the players. A joint
meeting between repre.sentatives of the Na-
tional League, Players' League and American
Association, at the close of the season of 1890,
resulted in a compromise. It was plain that
New York, Brooklyn, Pittsburg and Cleve-
land would not support two clubs, and the
Players' League clubs of those cities were
consolidated with the National League
clubs by means of deals or purchases, while
the Chicago Players' club was bought out.
The Boston and Philadelphia Players' clubs
joined the American Association. A new
national agreement between the clubs of
the National League, American Association
and Western Association was drawn up and
signed, only to be broken a few days later bv
the American Association because of the
action of the National Board in awarding
the services of star Association players to
League clubs. The Association went through
the season of 1891 on an independent basis.
This resulted in increasing salaries of ball
players, there being sharp competition for
the services of the stars.
A twelve-club organization, styled the
National League and American Association
of Baseball Clubs, was organized at Indian-
apolis, Dec. 15, 1891, It included the best
baseball cities of the country, and virtually
marked the burial of the American Associa-
tion, which had been in existence since 1882.

Squadron, of Cowes, for competitioii, open to
yachts of all nations, in 1851. It was won,
over a course around the Isle of Wight, by
the keel schooner America, August 22, 1851.
The race was without time allowance, Amer-
ica sailing against a fleet of fourteen yachts,
four of which were of greater tonnage, and
one, the three-masted schooner Brilliant, of
392 tons, against her 170. The American
schooner won by eight minuteg, the forty-
seven-ton cutter Aurora being second, and
the fleet far behind.
Twenty-one races have been sailed in Unit-
ed States waters in defense of the cup, which
was offered on July 8, 1857, as a perpetual
challenge trophy, to be raced for under
the auspices of the New York Yacht Club.
The deed of gift has twice been changed
since the original draft was made by the
owners of the old schooner, J. C. Stevens, E.
A. Stevens, Hamilton Wilkes, J. Beekman
Finley and George L. Schuyler. All of the
donors are now dead. On only one occasion
has a challenger won a single race, viz. :
October 19, 1871, Columbia having been dis-
abled.

i't No. 4. — Parties that are tree in giving points to buy, often are
% interested and sometimes want to help the market so that they
% can sell.
% No. 5. — Parties who are free to give points to sell generally
^ want to keep the market down for their own ends.
xf/ No. 6. — Brokers should be slow in giving positive opinions of
^t^ the market, because an eighth commission is too small to warrant
jlj it; better for the broker to make it all by trading for himself.
jljl No. 7. — Do not overtrade.
jj^ No. 8. — Make large deposits on purchases of stock. A broker
v»/ can then do more justice to his clients, and a customer has more
vf> security, because: —
\ No. 9. — If a broker takes small deposits, the weak ones may
% swamp the large ones, and also the broker, in a panic.
jj^ No. 10. — Trade on your own money and on your own brains,
vj/ and you can find fault with no one but yourself.
vj/ No. II. — Do not watch the ticker: it takes your time from your ^

^ movements. Once or twice a year the market is in condition to J
vjjl buy or sell. j
^( No. 1 2. — Thirty years' experience has convinced us that the j
\f/ oracles of the stock market do not get rich, and that stock panics, <

(Bems of ^bougbt.
The purpose of an injury is to vex and
trouble one. No\y, nothing can do that to
him that is truly valiant.— Jb/iwsore.
In a vain man the smallest spark may
kindle into the greatest flame, because the
materials are always prepared for it— Hume.
The earth was made so various that the
mind of desultory man, studious of change
and pleased with novelty, might be indulged.
—Cowper.
Some men will believe nothing but what
they can comprehend; and there are but few
things that such are able to comprehend. —
Evremond.
The good opinion of honest men, friends to
freedom and well-wishers to mankind, is the
only reputation a wise man would ever desire.
— Washington.
There are two freedoms— the false, where
one is free to do what he likes, and the true,
where he is free to do what he ought. —
Charles Kingsley.
I hate ingratitude more in man than lying,
vainness, babbling, drunkenness or any taint
of vice w^hose strong corruption inhabits our
frail blood. — Shakspeare.
Persons extremely reserved and diffident
are like the old enariieled watches, which had
painted covers that hindered you from seeiag
what time it w^as. — Walpole.
Though reason is progressive, instinct is
stationary. Five thousand years have added
no improvement to the hive of the bee or the
house of the beaver.— Co^to??..
Hope nothing from luck, and the proba-
bility is that you will be so prepared, fore-
warned and forearmed, that all shallow ob-
servers will call you lucky. — Bulwer.
Great honors are great burdens; but on
whom they are cast with envy, he doth bear
two loads : his cares must still be double to
his joys in any dignity.— ^e«. Jonson.
By what strange law of mind is it that an
idea long overlooked, and trodden under foot
as a useless stone, suddenly sparkles out in
new light as a discovered diamond.— i/rs.
Stowe.
Not to return one good oflBce for another is
inhuman ; but to return evil for good is dia-
bolical. There are too many even of this
sort : the more they owe, the more they hate.
—Seneca.
Notwithstanding the sight of all the mise-
ries which wring us and threaten our destruc-
tion, we have still an instinct that we cannot
repress which elevates us above our sorrows.
—Paschal.
Pride dries the tears of anger and vexation;
humility, those of grief The one is indignant
that we should suffer ; the other calms us by
the reminder that we deserve nothing. — Mme.
Swetchine.
'Tls a cowardly and servile humor to hide
and disguise a man's self under a visor, and
not to dare to show himself what he is. By
that our followers are trained up to treachery.
—Montaigne.
Hung on the showier that fronts the golden
west, the rainbow bursts, Uke magic, on mine
eyes, in hues of ancient promise there im-
prest, frail in its date, eternal in its meaning.
— G T. Turner.
\^Tiat gunpowder did for war, the printing
press has done for the mind ; the statesman
is no longer clad in the steel of special edu-
cation, but every reading man is his judge.—
Wendell Phillips.
Mediocrity is now, as formerly, dangerous,
commonly fatal, to the poet ; but among even
the succes-sful writers of prose, those who rise
sensibly above it are the very rarest excep-
tions.— Gladstone.
Education commences at the mother's
knee, and everj' word spoken in the hearing
of little children tends toward the formation
of character. Let parents always bear this In
mind.— il. Ballou.
You would think that if our lips were made
of horn, and stuck out a foot or two from our
faces, kisses, at any rate, would be done for.
Not so. No creatures kiss each other so often
as birds. — Buxton.
Heaven-born, the soul a heavenward course
miist hold. The wise man, I affirm, can find
no rest in that which perishes; nor will he
lend his heart to aught which doth on time
deYjend. — Wordsworth.
No money is better spent than that which
is laid out for domestic satisfaction. A man
is pleased that his wife is dressed as well as
other people, and the wife Is pleased that she
is so dressed.— Jo/i«. son.
The mother's yearning, that completest
type of the life in another life which is the
essence of real human love, feels the presence
of the cherished child even in the base, de-
graded man. — George Eliot.
Proverbs are somewhat analogous to those
medical formulas which, being in frequent
use, are kept ready made up in the chemists'
shops, and which' often save the framing of
a dlstmct prescription.— IFAa^e/?/.
Pity, forbearance, long-suflFerance, fair inter-
pretation, excusing our brother, and taking
m the best sense, and passing the gentlest
sentence, are certainly our duty ; and he
that doth not so is an unjust person.- Jeremy
Taylor.
We map our future like some unknown
coast, and say here is a harbor, there a rock;
the one we will attain, the other shun, and
do neither; a chance gale springs up and
bears us far o'er some unfathomed sea.—
L. E. London.
Failure is, in a sense, the highway to suc-
cess, inasmuch as every discovery of what Is
false leads us to seek earnestly after what is
true, and every fresh experience points out
some form of error which we shall afterward
carefully avoid. — Keats.
Gambling is a kind of tacit confession that
those engaged therein do, in general, exceed
the bounds of their respective fortunes ; and,
therefore, they cast lots to determine on
whom shall the ruin at present fall, that the
rest may be saved a little longer.-Blackstojie.
Even in conversation about simple matters,
statements clearly made are often miscon-
ceived from impatience of attention. Con-
tinually it turns out that from the beginning
of a sentence, in course of utterance, they
have inferred an entire meaning; and, ignor-
ing the qualifying clauses w^hich follow, quite
misapprehend the idea conveyed.— Herbert
Spencer.

Are You a Catholic?
If so, voii say the Rosaiy ; consequently you will be interested in our new book>
Cbe Roly Rosary Tllustratea
which has been highly recommended by the leading Prelates of the Church.
It is a beautiful work' of 116 pages, large Cjuarto, substantially bound in silk
cloth, stamped in gold, printed on heavy enameled paper, with gilt edges. It
consists of two Parts bound in one. The First Part is composed of the Prayei-s
by St. Alphonsus Liguori, illustrated by fifteen exquisite full-page reproductions
of the most famous paintintrs, of subjects appropriate to each mystery, by such
artists as Rubens, Carl Muller, ^Nleyer, Bougereau, and others. These pictures
show with all the power of inspired art. as words could never show, the beauti-
ful lessons of the Rosary, which should be so deeply impressed on every Catholic
mind. Each picture and prayer is enclosed in a dainty liorder expressly designed
for it. and printed in appropriate colors (purple on the Sorrowful Mysteries, etc.).
Part Second contains the most complete history of the Rosary ever written,
its origin and propagation, by Rev. C. H. McKenna, O. P., who is probably the
greatest living authority on the Rosary. It also has a complete list of all in-
dulgences attached to the recitation of the Rosary, taken from the summary
drawn up by the Holy Congregation of Indulgences at Rome ancl confirmed l)y
Pope Innocent XL on July 31, 1679. Directions are also given as to how to
become a member of the Confraternity of the Rosary and obtain all these in-
dulgences.
Also the Rosary for Children, telling in simple, touching language, adapted
to the understanding of the young, the story of himianity's fall and their re-
demption by Christ. It is of inestimable value in fixing these tniths in the
mind at an age when impressions are so easily made, but never forgotten.
IT IS THE ARTISTIC BOOK PAR EXCELLLENCE OF THE AGE.
