A big ci- gar manufacturing firm in New York recently called for $10,000 worth of pen- nies, which were delivered a few days 1 8go. There is also an increase in the number of pennies shipped to us to.be cleaned, Many of these are found to be defective, and we 1ssue new coins in their stead.” There is another use to which pennies are being put. Several firms are putting out unique advertising cards with bright, new pennies inserted in them. In one of these cards two Dounjes represent the wheels of a bicy- cle. observer must have noticed two things ia about these trees : first, that they were almost entirely our red and black oaks, and second, that they were more or less rotten at the heart. Closely examined, many of them show along their trunks ‘defective spots which indicate the decay within. But it is often quite a surprise that trees that appear as though they would keep on growing for many years longer should so easily topple over in a storm. The red and black oaks are much more subject to disease, and hence to early failure and destruction than are any others, but, in large measure, the difficulty arises from the fact that, in our valley woodlands es pecially, the oaks are almost all from sprout growth. Very few are from seed. Sprouts are of deceptive value because they grow very rapidly for a You CAN BELIEVE.—The testimon- ials published in behalf of Hood’s Sars- aparilla.

This comes pri- marily from the old stump, and natur- ally is exerted along and up the centre of the trunk, slowly destroying the heart wood. Owing to the greater ease and quickness of the early growth of the red and black oaks, and the fre- quent culling out of the white oaks for various purposes, our valley wood- lands are, unconsciously, undergoing a marked change in varieties of trees; the poorer kinds being left in very large proportions. There are many places where, for various reasons, it seems desirable to keep up a bit of woodland.

THE BEST BURNING OIL THAT CAN BE MADE Dr A BATCH OF BISCUITS. FROM PETRGLEUM, Sift one quart of flour, two rounding teaspoonfuls of baking powder, and one teaspoonful HEE NEI of salt into a bowl; add three teaspoonfuls of COTTOL.ENE and rub together until thorough- ly mixed; then add suflicient milk to make a soft dough; knead slightly, roll out about half an inch thick, and cut with a small biscuit cutter. Place a little apart in a greased pan, and bake in a quick oven for fifteen minutes. These biscuits should be a delicate brown top and bottom, light on the sides, and snowy white when broken open. , The secret of success in this recipe, as in others, is to use but two-thirds as mu=h Cotto- lene as you used touse of lard. Cottolene will make the biscuit light, delicious, wholesome. { Better than any biscuit you ever made before. Try it. Be sure and get genuine COTTO- LENE.

Fun For Young Folk. A Doll Party is Great Sport and Offers a Wide Field for Ingenuity. Parents too often forget that they were once young and liked amusement. A mother of my acquaintance, with a houseful of young people, is a shining example of one who remembers. She lately gave a unique party which was a most successful affair. The invi- tations were sent by little Chinese and Japanese dolls, of the kind sold on the street at two for five cents, which are already dressed in gay Oriental gar- ments of paper. In the sash a tiny en- velope was thrust, addressed to the per- son to whom the doll was sent and con- taining an invitation to a doil party, the receiver being requested to come in a costume personating a doll of some sort. One of the most amusing features of the evening was a row of paper dolls, dressed in white and leaning against the wall, with hands joined. To do this well one must contrive to drive every bit of expression from the face and by theaid of powder to assume a ghastly complexion. = An ingenious costume of gray under- wear, drawn over the shoes and. stock- ings and sleeves, with short skirt and waist of gray silesia, made a very good rubber doll, but the belle of the evening was a turbaned black Dinah. Of course, in most cases masks are worn, but these can be dispensed with early in the eve- ing. A prizeis given to theone who can guess the identity of the greatest number. There is a field here for any amount of ingenuity. As this was in a suburban town theinvitation dolls were delivered by a messenger. ~~—The pugilist may get himself arrested, but it’s a hard matter to shut him up.
