2. Place it near the fire for fifteen
minutes. In o'der to hardei the sur
face and keep in the Juice.
3. Baste frequently with plenty of
dripping to prevent the meat from

Insure even cooking.
White meats and young meat re
quire much longer cooking twenty
minutes to tho pound and nn extra
twenty minutes over for the whole
Joint. Pork may even bo given one

process of cooking, continue to grow
in the human body. Before roasting
the fire should bo well backed up.
sufficiently to roast the Joint with
out mending. In using gas stoves
the burners should be very frequently
regulated to keep the fire from being
so Intense as to harden the meat to
the poiut of burning outside before
the heat has penetrated to the center
of the Joint. Should a coal fire need
replenishing, add coal a shovelful at
a time, and leave the drafts on until
it has become well Ignited. Do not
stir the fire before adding the coal or
the ashes will jnlx with the hot em
bers and cause a general collapse.
- The best Joints for roasting are:
In beef, the sirloin, crop, round.
In mutton, the leg, saddle, loin,
shoulder.
In veal, the loin, the thick end of
leg.
In pork, the spare rib, loin, leg.

Melt a tablespoon -of butter In a
saucepan, stir In a teaspoonful of
flour until smooth, add slowly a tea
cupful of stock or milk, stirring rap
idly, and cook five minutes. Season

from a New York dally paper, giving

A well known druggist hero at

at a small cost from any good pre

Electric light is the magnet that draws trade.
The bright store is the "hypnotic eye" of business.
People can no more resist the attraction of a bril
liant, Electrically lighted store than they can resist
the clarion call of a brass band.
Is your competitor with the Electrically illum
inated show windows, bright interior and sparkling
Electric Sign getting an advantage over you?
The moth never flutters around the unlighted
candle! Up-to-date stores nowadays consider shop
window lighting a necessity, whether they remain
open after dark or not, Competition forces modern
methods.
A show window brilliantly illuminated with
Electric light will make many a sale "the night
before." Electric light compels attention, makes
easy the examination of your display, shows goods
in detail and fabrics in their true colors.
And don't neglect the Electric Sign. It is
soliciting "tomorrow's" business every moment it is
lighted burning you name in the public mind. It
is a solicitor that never becomes weary never stops
work costs little.
Baked Banana.
Did you ever bake bananas? If
not, you have missed a great dainty
within the reach of all. Skin the
bananas, lay them side by side on a
baking dish or pan, put them into a
hot oven and bake until a rich brown.
The Juice from the fruit will form a
thick syrup. Serve hot or cold, with
cream and sugar, and you will thank
us for suggesting this cheap but
toothsome dish. Bananas so served
will be found to be easily digested
by those who cannot eat them raw
without Indigestion.
Brown Sauce.
To a tablespoonful of butter, well
browned, add a tablespoonful of
flour; mix and brown, but do not
scorch; add slowly a teacup of stock
or water and cook five minutes. Sea
son with salt and black pepper.
A little caramel is sometimes added
to brown sauce, but It must be used
sparingly, or It will detract from the
flavor. To prepare caramel, put two
teacunfuls of granulated sugar In a
saucepan, add a tablespoonful of
water, heat it over the fire, stirring It
constantly until It takes on a dark
brown color. Is brittle and slightly
bitter. Watch that It does not burn
Now add two teacupfuls of hot water
and stir while it boilts ten minutes.
If it candies when cold, add hot water
and boll again. Keep In a glass can
hermetically sealed.

Will Clean Copper Thoroughly.
Some copper articles are difficult
to clean with powders on account of
their ornamental surface. This diffi
culty Is obviated, says the Scientific
American, by means of acids, which
restore the lustre. Should the object
be greasy, It should be cleaned by
dipping In a hot solution of soda, then
rinsed In clear water. A hath for Im
parting brilliancy Is prepared as fol
lows; Nitric acid, two parts; sal am
moniac, one part; or, sulphuric acid,
one part; nitric acid, one part; water,
one part. The sal ammoniac must be
dissolved in water to saturation. The
articles should not. be immersed more
than two or three seconds. They are
rinsed first in cold water, then in
soapy hot water and dried In warm
sawdust.

New York, Dec. 7. Wall Street and
the railway world are beginning to
realize the true lmMrt and the true
significance of Stuyvesant Fish' at
tack upon the legality of the owner
ship of Illinois Central stock by the
I'nlon Pacific Railroad and by the
Railroad Securities Company and. as
a sresult, there Is grave apprehension.
It has recently developed that power
ful Influences on "the street" are at
work trying to Induce or to force Mr.
Fish to abandon his Injunction suit
entirely, because the railroad world
and the financiers do not wan to seo
at this time any Issue Involving a
question of public policy tried agaliiHt
the railroads. This does not mean an
acknowledgment that the ownership
of IIIlols Central stock by the two
corporations named Is Illegal or Is
contrary to public policy.
The apprehension which Is felt here
will be better understood when It Is
stated that tho Issue In tho Illinois
Central case Is purely one of public
policy and Is not based upon nor Is
It dependent upon any statutory en
actment In the State of Illinois
there Is no statute prohibiting one
corporation from holding stock In
another. It Is asserted by Mr. Fish,
however, that there are Important de
cisions to the effect that for one cor
poration to be permitted to do so Is
clearly contrary to public policy. The
theory regarding this. If It be true,
Is that such stoc kownershlp tends to
create a monoply.
Wall street has been casting up
the accounts upon the hypothesis
that Stuyvesant Fish will win his
suit, and the result Is staggering. It
Is stated that even tho Illinois Central
road would be disrupted, for It has
nearly a score of subsidiary compan
ies In which It owns stock. The al
leged. Inconsistency of Mr. Fish is
said to be shown by the fact that the
Missouri Pacific, of which ho is an
Influential director, owns an enormous
block of stock In tho Wabash Rail
road and Is controlled by tho same
Interest that owns the Wabash.
