t his is seen very clearly in the matter of
the tariff. This firm came to the United
States and asked f s a favor, that the peo
pie of the United btates should give it a
bounty upon all the goo3s that it make?.
I want this bounty said the nrm, 'io
enable u3 to pay higher wages to the men
we employ.' 'Very well,' replied the
people of the United States, 'if that is
what vou want it for. we will acree to
give you the bouuty,' and the people of
the United fctites accordingly did Duraen
themselves with the payment of the
bounty asked for. They did it in the
8hape of a protective tanlt on the pro
due s of the firm. Therefore, now, if
after the firm gets its bounty, and while
it continuously is in receipt 01 its ooumy,
it, instead of advancing wages, cuts them
down, and locks out toe workmen be
cause they refuse to accept the reduction,
the people of the United S atcs have a
perftct right to step in and compel, not
only the reinstatement 01 tne woiKraen,
but also to enforce such a distribution of
the receipts of the firm for its products
between the nrm and its worKinen as

A PELICIOTJS PIE.
'There was to be company to dinner,"
says a writer in the Housekeeper's
Weekly. "I was making pies and
wanted something better than or a little
different from the ordinary rhubard pie3
of which we had had so many. Acting
on the impulse I lined a deep plate with
rich paste (it must be rich for all acid
pies, as it toughens in cooking), I rubbed
the crust with flour and put a layer of
dates, stoned and cut in pieces, ten or
twelve to an ordinarv sized pie. I then
filled the plate with pulled and sliced
rhubarb, adding a trifle of salt and three
heaninor tablesooonf uls . of sugar mixed
with one spoonful of flour. A top crust
Mil added and the pie looked as usual.
Tt. iws nimnlv delicious and the flavor
was so unique. Every one praised it
and inquired a3 to the filling."

the same quantity of lemon juice, half a
teaspoonful of salt, a grain of cayenne,

it in a quart of salted water." Drain the
marrow thoroughly and mix it with the

pint allow half a pint of new milk, one
teaspoonful of butter, one of chopped
parsley, two of flour, one teaspoonful of

DOW TO COOK FISH.
Judsre of the freshness of fish by the
brightness of the eyes, rednessof the
gills, stiffness of the tins and firmness ot
the flesh.
Have on hand a fish-turner. It is one
of the most useful of kitchen utensils,
as it is exceedingly difficult to turn a fish
without mutilatincr it.
Use olive oil. cottolene, lard or pork
scraps for fried fish. Some cooks use a
dredging of flour, others beaten eggs and
crackers or bread crumbs. Season with
salt and oeoper and fry a delicate brown.
In boiling a large fish wrap in a cloth
which has been well flour jd to prevent
sticking, tie with string and yver with
three inche3 of cold water well salted.
Time, five to ten minutes per pound.
When done drain on a sieve.
If broiled, cleanse and dry; split the
fish open so that the bacabone will be
flat in the middle; when seasoned, but
ter gridiron and brown fish with the
inside towards the coals. Butter lavish
ly and serve on hot platter, Garnish
with parsley.
The fish to be baked must be thor
oughly washed aud wiped dry;' when
stuffed sew together, seajon with salt
and pepper and snfucient water to baste
with. Many housekeepers fill in the
space about the sides of the pan with
raw potatoes. One hour is sufficient for
a large fib.
