If housewives Understood more fully th processes of broiling, roasting and boiling, there would be less complaint of tough, tasteless meat. The principles underlying all three methods Is Identical; the differ ence lle In the medium employed. In all. the' object to be attained is to first quickly sear the exterior of the meat, thus coagu lating the surface albumen, and effectually sealing the Juice. The cooking then pro ceeds mar felowl'y to a finish, the tlm;te- quired hinging, a a matter of course, upon the sise of the cut, In broil ng and In roast In,' which . are ip reaUty th came, th name depending upon the nature of the piece of meat, .this hardening of th ex terior Is accomplished by exposing the meat to the direct action of the heat, which must be Intense enough to sear the surface at one. When It Is not, the Juices seep out, leaving It tasteless and sacrificing it nutritive qualities. In boiling meat, surface coagulation la attained by Immersing the meat in boiling water and keeping up the temperature for a minute. One of the preliminary rule of boiling, on which should be indelibly impressed upon every cook, la that water, cannot be heated to the proper temperature for boiling (212 de grees) In an open vessel nor in on with an Indifferently fitting cover. Another point, equal In Importance to the first. Is that when water begins to boll, a quicker fire than Is absolutely necessary ti keep it boiling results merely In wasting the water In the form of steam and so harden the -exterior of th meat as to prevent the heat penetrating to the interior.

Mohler, vie ' president nd ' gen eral manager of the Union Pacific, re turned x Friday from Chicago, wher for the last five weeks he has been attending a conference between the railroad man- agers of western railroads and. committees representlng the different trainmen's or ganisations. 1 Mr. Mdhier look hale ' and well, fully recovered from his attack of pneumonia which confined him to his hotel for some tlm. . . Th tendency of roads In the west from thls time on must be to.retrencn, saia Mr. Mohler. "There I no other course left for them to pursue, . "The chairman of th managers' com mittee, I. O. Rawn of the Illinois Central, gave out a Statement of the fact and has said tha managers went even so far as to offer concessions to th men who would be oppressive to some of the roads.' Many of the roads have been making advance In the pay of the men for some time with out making thefact public. I fear some roads will be put In the hand of receivers, which will undoubtedly, mean a panic. A an example, ther is one western road which had 1900,000 increase In the gross oarnlngs for January, whUe the net in crease wa but 1100,000. Th road must retrench. "The conference with th conductors and brakemen waa oonducted In a most con genial manner and the manager offered all th advance ' they thought they could possibly afford In view of th U and IS per cent advance made In 1903. "The manager have offered to submit this question 1. arbitration. With a gen eral Increase In rates of pay, a marked Increase In th coat of material, with legislation, both. s"tt fend Interstate, to reduce revenue, ther can be only one result. No one will believe this statement whan a' desires to believe otherwise or when hi Interests are otherwise; therefore I do not aak anyone to believe; th only request I to remember." Mr. Mohler said be would have the alt for the new headquarter building cleared at one. - Thinking of New Rat Law. Railroads ar busy determining what they will do In th matter of rate when th new law goes Into effect. Th passage of the t-cent bill by th Nebraska legislature with , th emergency clause will make the bill a law within thre daya after th governor sign It. Th railroad claim they cannot possibly fix their tariff so th agent can sell th ticket in less than thirty day, so th passenger' departments and th legal department are busy trying to solve the problem. While th Nebraska law fixe th rate within th state, it Is said that will hav no ffsct on th Interstate buslnes un less (he railroads so desire. For Instsnc. tha rat to Denver 1 about 118, while on a mileage basis under th 1-cent law h rat will be reduced to 112. 75. The rail road ..claim they do not hav to make this reduction because of the cut In the rata within the state of Nebraska. They also say they would not be permitted to make the change of Interstate ratea within thirty day If thy so desired, because of the Interstate law, which compels thirty days' notice before a change of Interstate rate 1 mads. The report ram from Chicago through the Associated Press that the railroad would fight th measure In all state which would pass a t-cent maximum passenger rate bill.

TRIBUTE FOR TRAIN SCHOOL nock ford, Illinois, Woman Impressed with Work Don t'nder -Miss Mason. Train school, Omaha," of which Miss C. B. Maso is .principal, Is held up in th Morning Btar of Rockford, 111., of last Sunday by Mr. James T. Joslln, who re cently mad a visit to It, a a model In many respect. Mrs. joslln I deeply im pressed with the practical Work that 1 done In that Institution, wher the prin cipal and teachers look further than their own! rooms look Into the homes of tholr pupils In their painstaking effort to train and develop and uplift the yoUng en trusted to their care, and keeping. Mr. Joslln contributed this statement to the Btar: I wa very strongly impressed when on a recent visit In Omaha by the work be ing don In one of the public schools. It wa In the Train school, named for a very public-spirited man of earlier day, Oeorge Francis Train. This school Is built In front of one of tha high bluffs which are so characteristic in Omaha. The school has outgrown its original quarters and the fourth and fifth grades ar occupying quarters in' a small building just at th top of the high blurt, at the refer, and overlooks the lowlands beyond the Mis souri river and Council .Blurt In the dis tance. . This school la superintended by Mis Mason, principal, and a corn of teachers, who have worked out a bit of constructive work which 1 within the easy grasp of sny of us and cannot help but old ma terially in upbuilding character, a very essential point Just at the present time. Kuch room take up the study of a cer ' tain animal for One month, the different quulltles, proper food, what good for and : It fie care and treatment this animal should 1-rOeive at all timeai are talked about bv ! the teacher and pupils Ju an exercise' of five minutes' duration saoh ' mornltia. - Kach grade has formed Itself into an or ganisation called "Band of Mercy." These bands' are presided over by children act ing as president and secretary, conduct ing meir meetings in the most business- ; mVnth and 0 . n e1fun Vr. held at cer- tain times each vear. A nroaram la ar. ranged and participated in by the children of all rooms. The programs of the rooms vary only (on the days of the Open meet ing) In -the subject of discussion, different animals being taken up. The president called the meeting to order. the secretary read the minutes of the Dre- ceauig meeting ana announced tne subject for discussion. The songs given by each room are appropriate to the exercises. The only requirement to become mem bers of these Bands pf Mercy is the will ingness to sign th pledge, which Is th same for all room and as la follows: "I win try to b kind to all harmless living creatures and try to protect them from all cruel usage." This pledge Is repeated at all the meetlnga, A wa passed from room to rboni. listen ing to It all and realised th meaning of It all, one could not help but feel that a very good work is being done. These children are banded together In the Interest of living creature who ar so helpless about ua By belonging to th Band of Mercy they become o Ulcers to re port any' case of cruelty which they can not remedy to th officer of the Humane society of Omaha, and much good has been accomplished in thla way. Much more 1 being accomplished In the homes of these children, for, in being taught to be kind to th dumb animals and oaring for them, many have been taught to Improve condi tions In the home by being klr.d to mother and father, sister and brothera The love of the child for the animala makes the love for the parent stronger. . Th child become th teacher In many cases and the factor of Improvement In these homes, where the tired mother be- come weary by her dally toll and tha father comes horn from his day's work, bringing nothing but absolute necessities to them all. . Miss Mason made th statement aa we passed from one room to another that when it was time for election of officer several candidates were nominated and that there was not allowed to be oh word said against a candidate, but all th good points of all- candidates brought out, and that the vbent of feeling-prevailed. The Interest- shown In this work was manifested by the attendance at this open meeting.

Has a world-wide reputation for HiJh Hi . 4 Established 1780 W homettiskere, with a subtitle of food preparers. Who are trying to provide th ;bcst foods for Our families have listened to the well attested stories of th way in which foods wer prepared for th market until w felt th ground dipping beneath our feet and groped with dismay for firm footing. The milk which fed our bable had preservallne In It; It was unclean, with millions of bacteria to th teaapoonful; th cow had tuberculosis; Chicago had an epidemic of disease In consequence; dairies from whence came much Of Omaha' milk supply wer scenes of filth, dangerous and disgusting, sad Omaha had no power to cleans them because East Omaha wa in lows.- Our meat supply, much of It, was prepared tor th market tinder unsanitary conditions, with Inadequate Inspection; th cattle had tuberculosis, were ."downer;" th hog had trichinosis, cholera; th chick ens were " cold-stored, not dressed fend con sequently evolved toxlo germ that mad them unfit for food. Our canned good were "preserved," colored with) aniline dyes; our spices, coffee and teas Wer adulterated with cheaper and sometimes dangerous articles; our candles contained glucoa and whit earth, melodiously In our mother Latin designated terra alba. more dye; chocolate that was mysteri ously doctored, and gelatine that waa as uncleanly as th poorest glue. - Our bread waa made and baked tn unsanitary bake ries; the nutriment Was alt "raised" out of It and It was carted around In unclean wagon and handled by careless employe until we had to cut off fell th best portion, th crust, before w dared et it. and wa were "all llabl to ' appendicitis In conse quence, with th reault of a curtailed and miserable existence after w had been be reft of our appendix vermiform la ' Cona-ress elves Blessed Relief. -1 Just a those reully studying to know what to glv their families wer about re duced to despair and to th conclusion that bo good food wa to be bad unless pro duced direct from th ground by them selves, with no Intermediate "mlddl" man to adulterate, "preserve," color or make a breeding house tor filth bacteria, and they must either retire to a farm or fall a prey to all these scheme Of trad to render their food dangerous and useless, a ray of relief cam to lighten th darkness. Congress was turned Into a sample room. wherein was displayed an array of adul terated, "preserved," dyed and fllth-bae-terla-laden foods for the Inspection of 4ho who must either provide a "pure food law" that should forever do away with all this conglomeration of death-dealing things, or els hereafter know that they would be responsible to the. people for suoh condi tion. For twenty years congress bad been Importuned to do this thing and had re fused, but the people, gradually awakening In this twenty years of slow percolation of facts Into their Inner consciousness to a realisation that they wer being slowly poisoned by those'who prepared their food for them, .and that th lawmaker whom they had sent' to see that they had Justice and fair play . wer permitting It, spoke, fend publlo sentiment finally compelled ao tlon at the end bf the twenty years. - ' And so a national pure food law was passed. The fltst of January It went Into effect. - ' States ' Also Clle In. But then it was found that these slow poison foods cculd still be mad In any slat. If sold only In that stats and th national law could not touch them; .It w only when they wer made In on stst and sold tn another that the law was of any avail. j 80 state food laws must be passedAo make all really safe and sure they were to have the foods they had found wer so hard to get. And to make them thoroughly effective those laws must conform with th national law and each other, so the various sUies either hav such law or they are under consideration. To atttnd strictly to our own food-provld Ing, as all women should, we have learned that Nebraska's lawmakers now In session. are endeavoring to pass such a law and really aeem to be trying to tread , the straight and narrow path that will bring them to a law which none of the Interests concerned will fight, or If they do their fight will be IneSectual. When , there Is a state law a wall aa a national, th people most vitally Interested in It ar th food preparer and horn maker.' th , women. They should know what the law is, how It Is to b carried out, and should so watch and (earn that If It Is- not properly enforeed they c4n and will sound the note of alarm. - , .The investigations of foods that wer re ported last May at the Biennial of the National Federation of Women's clubs, and the request telegraphed congress for a pure food law from that body representing hundred thousand' women, showed that they wer sllv to th necessity and wore already doing. Eatlna- Has Never stopped.,' - In the meantime the food providers must go right on preparing three meals a day even though Nebraska law makers have not cleared away th dangers that beset them So.
