Dad.” ed the GUILTY OF TWO EXCESSES Women Too Often Drift Inte Ac- guaintanceship Thoughtlessly— Select Friends Unwisely. Women are guilty of two excesses | ‘a iriendship—or in acquaintance— making, to be strictly accurate. First of all they drift into what might be called a iriendship or at ‘east an intimate acquaintance, with whomever they come into contact. vithout regard to congeniality They make (friends any trouble about the just drift into intimacy with some chance acquaintance in a ho- tel or boarding house or in travel- ing, and neglect golden opportuni: ties in the hurry they are in, to confide in somebody. Another fault with so itlendships among women is they select people for intimates ure. taking and that who we too much like themselves, who accentuate faults or failings or weaknesses, instead of helping to eradicate the shortcomings. This is loubtless because women are given £0 much to talking things over with ach other. A brilliant man once said that wo:ien are happy only when they are in twos, and there 's a good deal of truth in what he said. Introspection 10 a certain point, but beyond ‘he person who indulges in it ndes morbid, and ft better to iwell hopefully on objective things than to be too subjective or too viel given to self-analyzing. What is needed in i: not a sameness, though this does Sot mean that your friends must be neongenial, but a difference of some Lind, somathing that stimulates us is cod in a fiiendship if we are dull and crpecfally need a mental or spiritual onie, of if we are too energetic or im- :ulsive, it might be wise to look about or the slower and more cautious ‘viend. it is GIVES ENGLAND HIS MONEY i'r Ernest Cassel Is One of the Big- gest Philanthropists in Great Britain, The world of finance contains no ore thrilling romance than that in «ich the central figure is Sir Ernest ‘.zsel, whose recent gift of a park to “ewmarket in memory of King Ed card, whose friendship he enjoyed for ny years, is but one of many splen- hud acts of munificence.

Extraordinary things are coming out at rhe trial in Paris of seven revolu- ivuists on the charge of having threatened and sequestrated three of their comrades whom they suspected of betraying them, the one for the space of 52 hours, another for 48 hours, and the third for 12, with the result that their captives signed con- Tessions. The story of two of these affairs having been related in some of the newspapers, the judicial authori- ties instituted an inquiry, with the result that warran.s were issued for the arrest of nine men. Three only could be captured, as the rest had fed, but four of the latter surrendered. Meanwhile, it had been ascertained that a third revolutionist had been drawn into a trap and also seques- | trated, his papers being even seized at his dwelling. When questioned he and his fellow-prisoners assumed full responsibility for what they had done, end zoon {he presiding judge re- marked: “You have, like us, a detective de- partment, thenks to which you have heen able to intercept correspondence, to shadow people, and to lay traps for them. You have employed the classic methods of the police, and you have also gendarmes, the jeunes-gardes revolutionnaires. You have, too, your magistrates, but there is this differ- ence, that the accessed are not assist. cd by counsel.” The person to whom this was ad- dressed coclly replied that they left Did the man who had undergone the lungest sequestration complain? “No, | poor fellow: he was only too glad to It might perhaps hove been different with the republi- | cans of former days, who did not hesi- | tate to use daggers and revolvers when they got rid of spies.”—Paris | Correspondence London Telegraph. many | is very well, up | be- | our friendships | An Inventor.

Never attempt to polish a kitchen range until all the grease and dirt has been removed from it. Dip a rag in some soot and with this remove all grease stains. Take off varnish marks with tissue paper, moistened with vinegar. When the ironwork of the stove is discolored through the heat it should by well rubbed with a soapy ! flannel and then thickly coated with | black lead. To obtain an absolutely | black surface mix a little ammonia with the black lead. Coal oil will soften the old paint brushes used last year. Place them in a can of the oil and wash them well in warm soap suds. Rugs have a tiresome way of curl ing at the corners, which spoils their appearance and in the end the corners carve torn away. To insure against this, directly a rug is bought bind it on the under side with stout Hoiland webbing. To wash soiled dress shields lay | them on a board or table, soiled side up, and give a thorough scrubbing with a stiff brush and any good laun- dry soap, with plenty of lukewarm water. Hold under a faucet until com- pletely rinsed. Do not squeeze, but i hang each dripping piece on the line | until dry. : The life of old linoleum may be lengthened somewhat by giving it a | coat of varnish.

Cut up in slices half a pound of | calf’s liver and the same quantity of | fat bacon; put first a layer of bacon | at the bottom of a pie dish, then one of liver; sprinkle with salt and pep- per; add a medium sized onion and | one apple, both cut up; cover down . and let it stew gently in the oven for | about an hour and a quarter. No | water is required. Carrot Salad. i Wash and scrape tender rich colored carrots; throw them into fast boiling | water and boil until soft; cut them | into very thin slices; put them into a | glass bowl and sprinkle with sifted | loaf sugar; add the juice of a large lemon and a.wineglassful of olive oil; garnish the dish with very thin slices of lemon and any kind of green salad leaves. Pineapple Tapioca. To make this, take one quart of water, one cup of instantaneous tapio- ca, one cup of sugar and whites of four eggs.

CEDE ALL DINNERS, Freshest Meat Should Be Used and With a Reasonable Amount of Care the Result Will Be Satisfying. Soup is the prelude of the dinner. It is light, healthy, stimulating food that gently prepares the diner for heavier food to come, The earliest mention of soup that occurs to me is the dish of pottaze for which Esau sold his birthright, There can be little doubt that Re- becca was a fine cook, for we know how she made the tempting dish for which he gave his inheritance. Ten- der picces of fresh-killed kid were seethed in milk and seasoned with herbs and thickened with meal. This makes a most excellent stew that even these enlightened days have not im- proved upon. Indeed, there are but two kinds of soup, thick and thin, or if it please The thick, bisques, cream The thin soups, or “soup maigres,” as the French designate them, are consomms or bouillon and clarified broths. When making scup use the freshest meat obtainable. Split the bones and cut the meat in small pieces. Put to cook in cold, salted water. This permits the albumen to dissolve be- fore the water commences to hoil. This albumen and gelatin rises to the top of the soup kettie, but should not | be skimmed off, as much of it will be | assimilated in the process of cooking and it contains the richest juices of After the contents of the soup ketile have commenced boiling briskly, scason and add the vegetables i and herds. Keep it boiling slowly and | continuously. Thirty minutes to each pound of meat is the usual time al- lowed, but longer cooking is some- times necessary. Bisques are the richest and most satisfying of all soups. They originated in 1700 and 1750, and these ancient ones differed greatly from the -moderg style, which is only a vegetable soup enriched with cream and well thickened. The origi nal bisques well deserve to be resur rected.—Henrietta D. Grauel. if you take Hood's Sarsaparilla and receive ose of own R. 1 nervous ractica wel.

Sometimes a woman is compelled to move heavy trunks or boxes because her husband or the boys are not at home. An oid broom placed under one end or corner, wiil be a great help in sliding it over the floor. If the woman has strength enough to lift the box up so the broom can be put under the center, she can then manage to drag the trunk across the floor. Fried Apples and Onions. Take one large Spanish onion to six good sized cooking apples. Slice apnles without paring them and slice onion thin. Fry together in butter, keeping the pan covered to hold the steam and prevent burning. Sprinkle lightly with sugar while cooking to add to the flavor ef the dish, but do not add the sugar until the apples and onions are nearly done, as sugar burns easily. Ginger Cookies. One egg, one cup molasses, one cup sugar, one cup butter and lard mixed, one-half cup of boiling water, one level tablespoon soda dissolved in the water, one tablespoon ginger, one | tablespoon of mixed spices; flour | nough to roll nicely.
