Regularly once a week certain state papers publish what purports to be private press dispatches from Washing- \Vhether these are sent out by by a ton... some penny-a-liner 01' Whether regular: correspondent does not appear, but each time they contain some slight- int: allusion to the Secretaiy to the President, Mr. John Addison Porter. Tflheiiiegular appearance would in- dicate that there was a purpose behind them, either torepay some fancied in- jury or else, .they are sent in the in- terest of certain aspiring politicians. .ike the high-toned gentleman that l» 1 is, Mr. Porter has. allowed these as- .-- -ults to go unnoticed, but, it is time no press of the state calls a halt and refuses to allow their columns to be used. to stab a man in the back in this manner. ; Porter is a candidate I of the grand old state of Connecticut, and he has the same right to aspire to that :Ihonorable Olfice as any other citizen of the commouwealth, and that, too, with- ‘out being assailed by these slanderous ghouls whose methods,to say the least, are despicable. WA'tWOH— Feminine Chat. Women" Both forgive and forget. 'Men forgive, but they never forget. Cl Manya woman’s beautyis temporarily spoiled when her lips break out, but that is nothing" to the trouble that en- sues when her tongue breaks out and she says things she is sorry for but can- not'get back. A woman 1'.. scolding more. oft-en makes a man do as he shouldn’t than ashe should. ' Blatonic love is generally the intro- duction to the real thing. Outdoor exercises in place of five- linger exercises are the rule for the up- Lo-date girl, who considers golfplaying immensely more correct than piano playing. .

Lamb and veal contain but a small propor- tion of nutriment as compared with beef or mutton, and pork still less. The most advantageous methods 0! Meat which is cooked before a. clear fire shrinks less, and is better both in flav- or and appearance than if baked in an oven. It is a common error to sup- pose that boiled meat is more, easily. digested than roasted; provided it is scientifically cooked so that the good- ness is retained, meat roasted is both nourishing and digestible, but if boiled in cold water the juices of the meat are drawn out and the .fibre alone re- mains. Stewing is a very economical way of cooking, for by this means meat which might otherwise be tough and unpalatable is rendered tender and very nutritious. HOW TO FIND 0|". Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order ‘ WHAT 1‘0 D0. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in lelieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the m inary passages. It cor1ects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef— fects following use of liquor, wine or beer. and' overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urin- ate. The mild and the extraordinary etl'ect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful tunes of the most distressing cases. If yen need .1 medicine you should hav. the best.
