These are a very popular summer dish and not at all difficult to pre pare. The aspic Jelly fa simply meat Jelly, beef, veal or chicken seasoned highly with salt, pepper, celery salt and lemon juice and thickened with gelatine For eggs or chicken, veal or chicken stock are used. For tongue ©r other dark meats, beef stock is required.

Reserved. “THE UPPER TEN” Nathaniel P Wills The expression "The Upper Ten" •eems to have originated with Na thaniel P. WilllB. the American poet and writer on varied subjects. In a contribution on "Necessity for a Promenade Drive" Willis wrote: "At present there is no distinction among the upper ten thousand of the city.” The Idea seems to have Impressed James l'enimore 'oopcr, for in hiH The Ways of the Hour,” published In 1850, he says: “Those families, you know, are our upper crust-—not upper ten thousand." The same Idea is to he found in Thomas <\ Haitburton> "Sam Slick" writings, In which he ridicules the English. He says: "I want you to see Peel. Stanley. Gra ham. Shiel. Ilussell. Mtuauley, Old Joe, and so on. They are all upper trust here." The quoted lines appeared first in "The New York Mirror. " which Wil lis assisted in establishing and in which most of his best work appear ed during the twenty years he was connected with the paper. As a prose writer of ease and elegance, Willis was justly admired. He was an ob serving traveler and knew how to pre sent his adventures in glowing colors. However, his writings were occasion ally marred by frivolous conceits and affected Gallicisms in writing for ef fect by overstated simple truths, and he made merchandise of facts and opinions that he gleaned In private intercourse. These last transgressions eventually led to quarrels and personal encoun ters. Hockhart gave him a severe cas tigation In tilt- "Quarterly Review," ami, with Captain Marryat, then edi tor of the "Metropolitan Magazine," he fought a bloodless duel. Suggestions for Home Canning Corn and Beano. For the beans select them when j young and tender. String, then cut 1 or break into short lengths. Have in readiness some thoroughly sterilized glass jars and new rubbers. A can rubber should never be used a sec ond season. Fill the jars with the beans, pressing tnem in compactly un til the Jar is III led to within an inch from the top. Four cold water to till, first adding a teaspopnful of salt. Fut the rubber ring around the neck of the Jar and place the glass top on loosely. If you use the spring top jar do not press it down. Have ready*! a wash boiler or large bottomed kettle with a wooden or wire rack to pro- j vent the jars touching the bottom. Put In as many Jars as the space will ac- I commodate without permitting them! to touch each other. A coil of rope j or twists of hay can be used to sepa rate the cans. Four in cold water to j cover the cans, to about hall their j depth, adjust the cover of the boiler and set over the rtre. Bring the water ! to a boll and cook steadily for an ; hour or longer. At the end of that time take off the cover of the boiler j to let the steam escape, screw' the tops j of the cans tightly or press down the spring and let stand In the boiler > until the next day. Then raise the spring again or partially unscrew the top, so as to relieve the pressure from the steam about to be generated. Add more water to the boiler If necessary sod cook an hour or two more. Again screw tightly and leave until the third day, when the same process Is to be repeated another hour. Then, when sterilisation Is complete, screw tightly and, when cold, label and put away. In taking the cans from the holler be , areful not to set them In a draught, as a sudden change In temperature Is apt to crack the jur. To Fan Corn. Pluck the corn when the grains are full of milk and before they have commenced to harden. Husk the silk and with a sharp knife rut the grains from the ear. pressing out the Juice from the hulls Pack the jar as full as possible, add a teaspoonful of salt and proceed as with the beans. Another Way of Fanning String W-ans. String the beans, rut In two Inch lengths, cover with boiling salted wa ter and cook until nearly tender enough to eat. Have plenty of wa-1 tar boiling near at hand la tba taa kettle Drain the water from the beans, put In sterilizing glass jar* and pour in fresh boiling water, leaving just spare enough lor two table spoonsful boiling hot vinegar. Seal and set away in the dark. When ready to use. open the ean. turn off the wa ter, rinse and let come to a boil in fresh water to which has been added a piece of soda the size of a pea. Turn off this water, scald again in fresh water, season with suit, pepper, cream and butter, and fancy without much stretching or the imagination that you are eating fresh string beans.

For a brilliant rrirfison jelly use the berries when nearly -full-sized, but While still hard and red. To every three quarts of the berries allow one quart of water and cook gently together for an hour. Then add a second quart of cold wa ter and cook three-quarters of an hour longer, mashing the berries with a wooden masher or spoon. By this time the juice should bo thick and red. Strain and measure. To every pint of the Juice, allow a pound of sugar Heat this in the oven; but do not allow it to color. Add to the juice, let come to a boil, then skim Cool three nr four minutes, tost by pouring a spoonful in a cold saucer, and if It tbt. kens it is ready to pour into sterilized glasses. Set In the sun until ilrm and cold, then cover. Mulberry Wine. Shake the ripe or nearly ripe ber ries from the tree on to a clean piece of shoeing Place In a tub and pound to a pulp with a wooden pestle Strain and to each gallon of Juice al low three pounds of sugar.

First an application of grease ami then a most thorough shampooing aiul massaging are the two agents most beneficial for restoring color anil tex ture to hair that has been injured by salt water. Unfortunately the treat ment is not unlike that given when effort is living made to restore color after bleaching, for In both cases the condition is similar. Natural oils of I the scalp hai e been dried, and it is many weeks before they are brought i hack to normal. When sail water is the cause of in , jury it becomes necessary. before doing anything else, to remove all the stickiness which sea water makes. Its effect upon the hair is very peculiar, being almost ' messy,” so gummy do the locks hecome, and while It ma> seem easy to wash this out, it Is very difficult. Soap cannot be used. It only j makes a ba.l matter worse, so there 1 must be repeated rubbings In fresh. I warm water, changing it frequently I so that the salt may not he worked 1 back to the scalp. Hair which is dean has a creaky feeltng between the lingers when wet. and the test should be made when trying to re ' move all salt. The touch to the fingers Is not unlike that of silk, and when tills is pronounced it Is safe to | think the locks are clean. I Tying should he done both by ex posure to sun and by rubbing with soft towels, when the scalp Is ready for treatment. Particularly well suited to the con dition Is a 'Team made from one and a half ounces of white vaseline, three quarters of an ounce of cold drawn castor oil, seven-eighths of a dram bf gallic acid and fifteen drops of la.co der oil. This Is made into a smooth paste, and the hair is divided on the scalp, rubbing the applicatln > in 'he line left bare. The finger tips are really best for putting it on. Divisions should be made cluse to gether. rubbing well until 'be whole scalp has been anointed, after vhh h ten or fifteen minutes' massage is o be given. This treatment should lie had every night, and If the grease Is put on carefully It will not show through the hair.

Auk 3.—The forty lays allowed the Italian government inder Its treaty with the United Hate*, to make formal demand for he custody of Porter Charlton, held in he Jersey City jail for the murder -f his wife. Mrs. Mary S**ott Castle 'harlton, in Italy, will expire at mid light. No such request has been received by he officials of the state department n Washington and it is believed that tone will be. The Interest of the United States joveremeut in the case die® with the ixpiraibm of the ff*rty flnyft and the *nusual situation confronts the officials *f a confessed murdered being held without legal process. Three courses are open to tfm attor vevs retained by Judge Charlton, fath >r of Porter. The first is simply to ietnand that youth be released, there >eing no legal charge against him. The second is to ask a writ of heabas cor pus to secure his releas**. The third s the institution of insanity proceed ings. Which of these three courses will bo adopted by the attorneys is not known, but it is rumored that Judge 'harlton will either ask that his son he sent to a State Institution for the Insane nr deliv er, d to him for con finement in a private mad-house. The Italian government, it is said, is very well satistlcd with the present aspect of the case. The principals i ti the crime were Americans and the murderer is in America. America cannot try Charlton for a crime com mitted in Italy. It is thought hardly probable that Charlton’s family will make an ef fort to seenr* his unconditional free dom. though there is no legal bar to such proceeding, it is believed, it ^ understood that the alienists wh<« have examined Charlton at his fath er's instance have decided that he is insane.

The decision of the. cabinet will be wired to Montreal, and It is possible that another conference between the company and men will lie held to night. when the matter will be final 1 j settled. President Ha es admitted after the morning's ,-onft rence that it s at pro. liable the questions in dispute wouh i>e submitted t<> arbitration. but agair denied the statement made by a mi n«ir official last night that a settle ment had been reached.

August 3.—The post office department announced to-day that in the arrest of Fred Schenerk, who was captured In the act of es cupln gto France, the government haa obtained the most desired witness in its case against the gigantic cotton firm of Steele, Miller & Co., of Co rinth. Miss. Robert 8. Sharp, chief postofflce in spector, looks upon this case as suit able in importance to take rank alongside the United Wireless expo sure, which recently \v_as conducted by the postal authorities. It Is stated that the Corinth con cern conducted a tremendous busij I ness selling cotton to European firms at a fractional decrease from market price. It Is alleged that the officials of the concern forged Mils of lading and insurance certificates, which they i deposited with sight drafts, in that way obtaining money for mythical shipments of cotton. The postofflce inspectors state that in case the firm was able to buy at a lower price than that of 1he sales the orders were filled later. They asserted that the liabilities of the concern will aggregate from 12, <100.000 to J2.a00.000, with practical ly no assets. Scheneck was captured on board a French steamer in New York harbor yesterday. PATH THAT LEADS TO BLOODY SHAVE Boston League Derides That Ne groes Should (‘arry Guns to Insure Rights.
