Palmer, 40 Paciac A CRYSTALLIZED, OR GLACE FRUITS. The following article by Mrs. H. D. Mtintelth of Hunts Cruz appears In the Rural C'ullfonilan.

We have munpled some of the glure fruits prepared by her, and find It plentiant to the taste: The art of crystallizing or preserving the fresh fruits In the natural form, flavor and color is yet In its Infancy In this country and therefore offers an extensive and lucrative field of labor, especially suited to ltullus. To make these dainty confections, perfect In their naturalness, requires a dainty touch with a very fine perception of the distinction hetwpen B-onrl hurl indifferent frultH. both In the fresh I and finished state. There has always been air of the most profound mystery and secrecy about crystallizing fruits. Manufacturers have most jealously concealed their nwthuds from the "public.

While on a visit to Angeles a year ago, my attention was drawn to the fine display of crystallized or glace fruits there shown. Kvery one concedes the dellclousness and wholesomeness of crystallized fruits, but hitherto the cost, the time required for their preparation and, perhaps, the "fussiness" of the operation have tended to discourage their use in tne home and larsrely prevented their manufacture upon a commercial scale. These obstacles need no longer stand In the way of a general enjoyment of the manufacture of these delicacies, as they may now be produced equal in quality to the French article and possibly at one-third the cob! of the latter, and In a very greatly lessened time. For all this coast there are less than five crystallizing firms to supply the demand; no wonder the price of the fruit Is hlR-h and In reach of only the moneyed few. I was told the time required to crystallize fruit was from six to eight weeks from the time the fruit was fresh until finished for the trade.

This fact would seem to be a great drawback to many who would like to engnRe in the business, and so It was to me at the time, yet I felt sntlsned It was a pay ing business. After several years of investigation and experimenting, and any number of failures, I claim to have found out nn entirely new pro cess of making the rystnllized or glace rruits without the nld of coloring matter or chemicals of any kind: conse quently all fruit by my process has its natural flavor, form and color. More than that, I have done away with the old-time stickiness, producing a dry, crystallized fruit that may be eaten from the hand with kid gloves without soiling- I can also give you the fruit rendy for the trade in from five to ten days, at a profit of one hundred per cent. All kinds of fruit may be crystallized, also berries, and some vegetables. Farmers and fruit growers may add this business to their fruit drying with but little expense and with a preat deal more profit.

The glace strawberry is a novelty for which you will pay seventy-five cents per pound. This fruit alone would open up a new Industry of great value because of no competition on It. and one that has never yet been on the market. Glace peaches, while not new to the public, are scarce anil expensive, selling from fifty cents to seventy-five cents per pound, and from all report and hearsay, I would claim California the banner State for peach. ob and strawberries.

Time and space will not permit me to go further into the details of this InterestinK and profitable business, but I should be pleased and willing to answer any and all questions referred to me. QUESTION ANSWERED. Yes, August Flower still has the largest sale of any medicine In the civilized world. Your mothers' and grandmothers' never thought of using anything elso for Indigestion or Biliousness. Doctors were scarce, and they seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart failure, etc.

They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fermentation of undigested food, regulate the action of the liver, stimulate the nervous and organic action of the system, and that Is all they took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches. You only need a few doses of Green's August Flower, in liquid form, to make you satisfied there is nothing serious the matter with you. Get Green's Prize Almanac. Trial bot tles free at J. G.

F. mint, was stolen from the cashier's vault The strong room is arranged to hold (6,000,000 In coin packed In sacks, but for the lost three months (26,000,000 has been stored In tbe vault Sacks of gold Were plied high in the room and along one side were three trucks also loaded with coins In sacks. These trucks hod re' malned undisturbed for nearly three months, and they concealed a series of pigeon-holes along the wall where gold was stored. When the trucks were moved, on Saturday, it was found that six of the pigeon-holes that were behind them were empty. Those pigeon-holes had contained the sacks that were stolen.

How long they had been gone none but the thief can tell The coin In tbe vault was supposed to be counted dally, but none of the offi cials Intrusted with that work bad ever the trucks to count the money hidden behind them, taking it for granted the sacks were still there. KEEP EVANS IN OFFICE. Corporal Tanner, ex-Commissioner of Pensions and at present pension attorney and promoter, declares that the fight against Commissioner Evans will be continued until he is retired from the olllce of commissioner. "The old soldiers," continued Corporal Tanner, "have by no means ceased tbelr fight on Mr. Evans, and will not until he retires from the office." The term "old soldiers" is evidently intended to convey the Impression that the vet erans of the War of the Rebellion as a class ore clamoring for the removal of Mr.

Evans. This Is not the case. Perhaps no man in the country has fought more nobly for the old soldier, and that against his own party, than General Sickles, who is a friend of Commissioner Evans, although falsely reported to be the contrary. The fact Is, those who are opposing Evans or hope for his removal are not tbe real veterans, but the doubtful sol dier, bounty Jumper or deserter who either hopes to get a pension under false pretense or an increase of one obtained in like manner. Commissioner Evans is a Union veteran of the Civil War, and has made a superior commissioner.

He has attendod to the department business with the energy and ability with which he pre viously conducted his private busi ness, with the result that applica tions for pensions have been handled with a speed previously quite un precedented. The business of the bureau has not been permitted to accumulate and become burdensome. He has insisted that no pensions be granted without due warrant of law. anl those that have been held Hp and delayed have been so treated for good and euflicieut reasons. It is known also that, in many Instances, where particular cases of especial hardship have been brought to his attention.

the application being legal and prop- he baa expedited tbe work of the department so as to permit the beneficiary to receive his money within forty-eight hours after the papers were filed. He has also, where the pajpers have not been complete and the case seemed proper, taken pains to have the errors eliminated and cor rected, as rapidly as possible, and the claim passed. But the professional pension attorney has had few favors at the hands of Commissioner Evans. Tbe reputable practitioner has no complaint to make, but the pension business has-proved very attractive to certain practitioners whose moth ods were c.ortalnly peculiar. Mr.

Evans has displayed very offensive activity in discovering these clever gentlemen and In getting them dis barred from practice before the Interior Department. Now It Is these bushwocklng attorneys with a trumped-up clientage behind them who want Commissioner Evans removed. "These disgruntled and disbarred attorneys have tried to stir up unfavorable action against Evans in the Grand Army encampments, and In one or two Instances have succeeded. They tried it again at the national encampment In Philadelphia and without success. Mr.

Evans appeared at the encampment, and asked that a committee be ap pointed to visit the Pension Office and see what had been dona, and how and why It had been done, and how public business wub conducted under his direction. The committee reported in the most favorable terms; but the opposition is none the less active. It was said prior to the lout Presidential election that one of the promises that had been mode to win support for President McKinley was that Com missioner Evano would lie removed In the event of his re-election. There bus lieen no official confirmation of this report, but hie enemies are now active with the adiiiinlutratlonv and may accomplish IiIb retirement. The American people, however, can not nf-ford to lose a public servant of his capacity and conscientious devotion duty, at the behest of giaflers and confidence men.

It is a great misfortune. Just as the summer traveling season opens, that some one yells: Small-pox! This yell confines people to their homes, farms and places of business. It does not take much, either fact or fiction, to scare the average man and frighten general woman. And then some foolish newspapers will publish any exciting rumor. By the Marconi system of wlreloaB telegraphy tbe steamer Lake Chnm- plaln telegraphed news of her approach to Cnjpe Ray while still three hundred miles out at sea.

Not many now live who can say as much of the 19th century, but there are a few.

Firecrackers were made in China to scare the devil. They are fired off In Santa Cruz to frighten horses, but they did no serious barm this last Fourth and we are all thankful, We are now in the midst of what Is called the thunderstorm period in the East, and nearly every newspaper brings stories of destruction done by the electric fluid or whatever it may be. A disease, resembling small-pox, has been heard of all over the State, yet no death Is reported aa the result of this disease. There Is a great dlt.t ance between a cold and well defined case of consumption. Tho law against home study went into effect on Monday.

TAX REDUCTION AND THE TREASURY, St, Louie Globe-Democrat On July 1, next Monday, the war taxes will be reduced, as officially estimated, to the extent of $15,000,000 year.

The surplus revenue for the government fiscal year, which closes Juue 30, Is estimated avt 175,000,000. Should revenue and expenditures con-tlutie on the same scale, and present prosperous conditions be malntaiued, there should be for the coming fiscal year, notwithstanding the reduced tax ation, a Burplus of $30,000,000. There is good prospect that the surplus lor next year will be larger than the amount named. Favorable trade conditions are still expanding, and foreign traffic Is growing. The outlook for crops is excellent, and prices are well sustained.

As far as a forecast can be made from the existing situation the coming business year will at least be equal to that which ends within a lew days; and tbe treasury is so strongly fortified that it can not meet with a serious backset during the next twelve months. Several facts point strongly to a larger treasury surplus than for next year. The army Is in course of reduction. Regiments have been coming home steadily from the Philippines. Only a nominal force is required in Porto Rico, and before the end of another year nearly all American troops may be withdrawn from Cuba.

It is estimated that the cost of the army for the fiscal year just ending will be $142,500,000, and 'of the navy $60,500,000, making a total of $203,000,000, or $12,000,000 more than the aggregate of the lout fiscal year. But the Chinese complication more' than accounts for the increase. Our troops have left China. Probably the war department will not expend more than $120,000,000 next year, Including such public Improvements as it Is authorized to continue. Here is a probable saving of $25,000,000.

No material reduction is likely in the cost the navy department, nor do the people ask that the work of naval construction should be halted. To be pre pared on the sea is the wisest economy, and the reorganized regular army Is similarly a prudent provision. A review of all the factors In the cose indicate that there will be a treasury surplus in the next fiscal year from thirty million to sixty million dollars. But If a sudden period of de pression should cut down revenue as much as 10 per cent, the resulting deficit would be a small one and the cash balance Is large enough to meet such a call for a series of years. It is more probable that the secretary the treasury will be taxed to find uses for a surplus, and will go on purchasing unmatured bonds, an opera that adds to the financial strength economies of the nation.

A decreased government expenditure Is likely In tbe new possessions-, aside from the reduction of our military forces there. In a word, the treasury outlook could not be better and never been better.

Inventive skill has not only facilitated the operation of bun band by supplying labor-saving machinery, but It has adajrtod many of the conveniences and com forts of the city to farm life.

But In ventive skill has done very HUle up to date for the farmer's wife. In conse quence, her life Is a round of monoto nous duties of such character that she can seldom leave home for a day Hence her existence Is Isolated, find it Is no wonder statistics show that the largest number of Insane women come from rural homos. It Is true she no longer does the churning and butter making, aa such work has been taken up largely by the modern creamery. Out she has lost In moiu value; as now the profits of the old time country butter-making goes into the husband's pocket instead of Into bis wife's. Tbe custom In the old times was to give the wife the pro'it arising from the cow stable, and hen nery, the duck pond and the turkey range.

The wife still has the cooking washing, ironing, mending, cleaning and dusting to do, and all this with the ancient perquisites or pin money mentioned cut off. On the other hand mail delivery, ami he rides all day long on a sulky plow or on a reaper that cuts the grain and binds It Into sheaves. It Is doubtless only a que tlon of time when machines will husk his corn. But the drudgery of the week's washing and ironing is still with the farmer's wife. While tne lord of tbe fields rides In Indolent comfort In a sulky plow the wife bends over a washtub or wresilts with the hot Iron two days out of every week.

It Is true she has a wash ing muchlue, but it must be run by her own bone and muscle. It bos no sulky seat on It It is not a self-binder, as It were, which throws out sheaves of pure white linen with only the effort of guiding Hnus and on occasional oil ing of the machinery. In view of all this, we are glad to notice a promise of belated relief for the farmer's wife is seen In the propo sition of Representative Frost, of Wisconsin, to establish a steam laundry at every crossroads In the State, to which the farmer's washing and Iron ing may be brought every week. As the State Is dotted all over with creameries and cheese factories. It would be an easy matter to operate steam laundries In cunneetlon with them.

There Is nothing impossible or visionary about Mr. Frost's ilan. It embodies the principle of co-operation which has already been successfully applied to nearly every form of agricultural activity from the old grist and sawmills to the modem creamery. Divest the farmers household of this form of drudgery and then introduce In the kitchen some of the modern labor-saving devices that are used in hotels and the life of the farmer's wife will begin to approach that BUnd- ord of ease and comfort long since ab-j toined by the farmer himself. If Wisconsin, comparatively sparsely settled, can get up a co-operative plan such as mentioned, why can not Santa Cruz county, with Its population of 22.000 and IU taxable wealth of In most Instances the farmer is not able to employ Indoor help, and his wife has a right to At any rate, the Bubjcct is worth thinking about In many cases the farmer's wife has no daughters of sufficient age to help her, and such is the present tendency for girls of the country to try the city that the rural home Is crying for help.

So It can readily be seen the farmer's wife has not a happy lot She must work, Blck or well, week day and Sunday. She has little time for company, visiting or even for church. Perhaps this very fact Induces girls to unwisely rush to the city. They know In our modern days what it la to be a farmer's wife. There has been placed In the hands of young, thoughtless and Inexperienced boys a large number of cheap revolvers for shooting blank cartridges.

This Is too dangerous a weapon to be left In such irresponsible custody. Every prudent parent or guardian should recover possession of this revolver from tbe youth to whom ho gave permission to use It and see that It is laid away not to be disturbed until another Fourth of July. Secretary of the Agricultural De partment Wilson Is reported as saying: In a few months we will produce wltbln our domain everything that goes upon our table or upon our back. We will then be industrially and commercially independent of other na tions of the world. Whenever we a-et ready we con come pretty near starving any other nation." Half the world, Bays an exchange.

Harrison The words of Rip Van Winkle come trippingly to the tongue "How soon we are forgotten when we are gone!" It took a hundred years to erect a monument to Washington in the national capital. Only after extraordinary efforts was money raised to finish the tomb of General Grant.

The Dewey arch in New York could not be built at all, and only shame drove Springfield, or the State of Illinois to repair or rebuild the tomb of Lincoln. General Harrison de serves a monument, for he was a great American. But unfortunately he never touched the emotional sym pannes or tne people; and so while It seems neglectful not to willingly give mm a monument.
