1 ~~ | Bellefonte, Pa., November 24, 1911. The Conscience of Clara. One day when Mrs. Bell was mak- | ing a neighborly call on Mrs. Ellis | the latter, In the presence of ber | caller, discharged her colored maid, | whose obstreperousness could be | borne with no longer. A few weeks later Mrs. Bell again called ou Mrs. Ellis, and to her sur- prise her hostess informed her that Clara was back. The services of the maid were re quired by her mistress, who pressed the button in the drawing room. There was, however, no response. Finally Mrs. Ellis went out and waited on buerself. While she was gone Clara, who was acquainted with Mrs. Bell. having served in her fam- ily also, put her head in at the door and explained: “Mis’ Bell. | heard Mis’ Ellis all the time, but do you recollec’ the as’ time you was here she discharged me an’ sald she'd never have we again? | said I'd never come back too. But here I am, so we bofe tied. That's why I's ashamed to come in. | was ashamed for bofe of us.”—New York Times. Chili Con Carne. From remotest Mexico comes this recipe for chili con carne, which is capable of warming whatever cockles the heart may bave and of diffusing calories to one's works at large: First | comes a fire of logs in the open. Second | comes an olla of generous proportions. Into the olla put a gallon of water and | plenty of the bot chilis, and in that | region of Mexico they ripen so hot that not even the rattlesnake will dare take refuge in their shade. Upon this be- ginning lay as much of a side of beef in ope piece as may be squeezed into the pot. Set the cover on this olla and | lute it dowr with clay. ‘Chen put the pot into the fire and heap the glowing | coals all over it, with particular atten- | tlon to the iid, so that the luting may bake into brick. Keep the fire burning slowly all day long. When night has come scatter the embers, break the | brick seal of the olla, fork out and throw away whatever of the meat re- mains solid. The remainder is the chill con carpe. No sauce is needed. The Love Affairs of Handel. Women :reatly admired Handel, | who was very handsome, but the serenity of the composer scems only to have been ruffled twice by love on his part. [lis first attachment was to a London girl, a member of the aris- | tocracy. lier parents believed him | beneath Ler in social position, but were good enough to say that if he ab- | stained from writing any more music | the question of marriage might be en- tertained. I(t was easier to abstain from their daughter than from his art, and he did so. Years after almost the same thing occurred. Handel and an: other beautiful pupil of his fell in love | with each other, and proud parents | gave him the choice between giving | up his profession or their daughter. | Music, “heavenly maid,” was chosen.— “The Love Affairs of Some Famous Men.” Hitting the Doctor. | As today. in the days gone by the doctors were made the target of the | Jjester's fling. Pausanias, the Spartan general, | when asked by a physician how it was that he was never ill, exuitingly answered, "Because [ never consult you.” i At another time Pausanias said that | the best physician was the one who | dispatched his patients with the least possible suffering. | Pausanians, strongly disapproving of | a certain physician and his methods | and berating him in no mild terms, | was asked by a friend how, as he had aever consulted that particular doctor. he could be so sure of his statements. | Pausanias answered, “Well, had I con- sulted him would | be lving today? os A Summer Without Nights. To the summer visitor In Sweden there is nothing more striking than the almost total absence of night. At Stockholm, the Swedish capital, the sun gues down a few minutes before 10 o'clock and rises again four hours later during a greater part of the month of June. Put the four hours the sun lies hidden in the frozen north are not | hours of darkness. The refraction of | his rays as he passes around the north pole makes midnight as light as a cloudy midday and enables one to read the finest print without artificial light at any time anring the “night.” Put on His Guard. : Little Brother «who bag just been given some candy)—If | were you | shonidn’t take sister yachting this aft. ernoon.

Secret societies are so ancient that their origin is lost in the mists of the past. They existed in Egypt, Persia. India, at the earliest times with which history or iezend gives us any insight. It seems to be natural for men to organize such societies for both good and evil purposes.
