Best of Kitchen Bouquets.
A Doted cook glvea the following
aa the best of all kitchen bouquets:
Take one onion, ono celery root,
one carrot, one sweet potato, one
parsnip, one red pepper, one suallot
and from one to four clove gurlics,
according to taste. Remove the
seeds from the pepper, scrape tae
carrot and yarsnlp, peel the onion
and potato, and chop ull the vege
table very small HU with them
large bay-leavea and a fourth of a
teaspoonful of cloves, mace, cinna
mon and allspice; many cooks pre
fer to omit the cinnamon. Mix all
together and season with a teaepoou
ful of salt and ualf a teaspoonful of
white pepper. Put a layer of the
vegetables In the bottom of a sauce
pan, sprinkle well with brown sugar,
then add another layer of vegetables
and another of sugar. Proceed la
this way until all are used. Put In
a quick oven; when they have baked
to a rich brown add half a cupful of
old water, and simner and stir on
to. of the stove until a rich brown
syrup has formed; It will require fif
teen or twenty minutes. Strain off
tho syrup and bottle, corking it
tightly. Keep In a cool place. A
very little of this added to soups,
stews or sauces will give richness
both In color and flavor. Mary Fos

Savlncs Bank Clerks Have Trou'r
with New Women Depositors."
On the first of the year the savins?
brinks are particularly busy with folks
opening new accounts. But just be
cause tbey are new accounts the De
positors are not necessarily young
folks. Perhaps that explains why tho
clerks have difficulty In getting new
women depositors to tell their age.
One bank worker says It Is no joke
to try to get some of the women to
Klve Information about their apes.
They are very apt to hesitate and then
to say they enn't eaxctly recall the
year In which they were born, but that
their age Is about so and so.
"Now. ss a mntler of fact, they
know perfectly well the number of the
r' lit year, but In the ronfuston when
they are trying to conceal It. they
c.-.n't Just make the right subtraction,"
said the hark clerk.
A Car,e Worth Trying.
Mr F. Philander Towersby, a most
excellent citizen, ttiot'uh not noted for
lavish prodigality, received reeently a
conslsnment of very rare Tokayer
Ausbruch. He sent one bottle of the
delicious wine to Justice Fordyce of
the Supreme Court, who happens to
be one of the most eminent connois
seurs In America, end with the bottle
sent a note asking his Honor's opinion
of the vintage.
Mr. Towersby received next day this
reply:
"My dear Sir. I beg to thank you
for the confidence you repose In my
Judgment as shown by asking for my
opinion.
"But Inasmuch aa I am a lawyer,
many years of training and experi
ence make It Impossible for me to
give an opinion on anything but a
case."
Making the Thing Clear.
Tho superintendent of a Sunday
school class In Philadelphia recently
called upon a visitor to "say a few
word's" to the class, tho members of
which are mostly children of tender
age.
The visitor, a speaker well known
for his verbose and circumlocutory
mode of speech, beja.i his address as
follows.
"This morning, children, I purpose
to olTer you an epitome of the life of
St. Paul. It m:.y bo .erhnps that
there are anioug you some too young
to grasp the meaning of the word
epllome.
" 'Epitome.' children. Is In Its signi
fication synonymous with synopsis."
"War of Jenkins' Ear."
While the British parliament was
debating the question of war with
Spain in 1740 a war that was being
hotly urged by the Feople of the south
ern colonies and by the colonial end
English traders, one .lenklns, a sailor,
appeared before parliament and ex
hibited one of his ears that had been
cut off by the Spaniards. This turned
the scale against Walpole's peace pol
icy, and the war became known as
"The War of Jenkins' t.-.r."
WARNING TO THE PUBLIC.
The Appleton Family Adopted the
Fletcher Method of Chewing.
If any member of the Lysander John
Arplcton family invites you to a meal,
here's a pointer: Don't accept The
Appletons are adopting tho Fletcher
method of chewing their food, and in
order not to make any mistakes they
count. as they chew. This Is a sample
of the conversation heard at the Ap
pleton table: "Have you heard," asl;3
Mrs. Appleton, putting a piece o"
bread in her mouth, "that one, two,
three, four, five, six" (counting her
chews) "a widow on North Fourth
street seven, eight, nine, ten is to
be married?" She swallows the bread
and takes a bite of meat "I guess it is
really one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve,
so. Her mother thirteen, fourteen
told me so." The bite goes down
and the visitor takes a long breath.
The guest hears so much counting in
the next hour that he doesn't know if
he is at dinner or in a kindergarten.
Moreover, under Fletcherism tbe Ap
pletons don't set as good a table as
formerly. Their girl refused to wait
two hours at every meal while they
counted their chews, and quit, and
Mrs. Appleton takes so much time in
chewing that sbe has little time left
for cooking
How ths Frog Changes Color.
The chameleon changes his hue
with his environment. A short time
ago who could venture to point out
all the molecular and ethereal vibra
tions whereby the chain of action Is
made complete between external en
vironment and peripheral tissue
change? Yet Sollaud found that the
plgn-.entary changes by virtue ol
which the frog harmonizes Itself more
or less with the color of Its environ
ment are governed by two Bona of
nerves. It results from the action of
two reflexes, both originating In the
retina; and by his Investigations he Is
able to map out the paths from the
brain to the periphery by each of the
reliexes. Now let us picture to our
reives the delicacy of this process.
First, the green foliage, causing vibra
tions In the ether in certain wave
lengths, seta up certain molecular vi
brations in the retina, which, trans
lated to the brain, issue forth at the
periphery In such form that neither,
the skin nor the pigment granules In
it are changed irreversibly, but cer
tain molecular combinations are made
for the time, or certain lntramoleculai
changes of the atomic structure art
set up In the pigment for the time, by
virtue of which a proptective color Is
given to the animal.
Census of ths Bison.
Tue Journal of the New York Zoo
logical Society gives a census of the
American bison, according to which,
in place of all the hundreds of thou
sands of those animals which formerly
roved the plains, only 2.047 were
known to bo In existence on January
1. 1508. Of these. 969 were in capi.lv
Ity in the United States, and 41 lu
Canada. Since that data tlie l'ib:e

HOW TRACK ARB LSVELSD,"
Unique Methods Used to Make Trav
elers Comfortable. "
Curiosity 19 often displayed by trav
elers over the method employed In
making mile after mile of trackage
so level that scarcely an undulation
can be felt as the whizzing train reels
off the lap3. This loveliness Is main
tained by the "whitewash" car.
The "whitewash" err. Is an ordi
nary vehicle fitted out with a sort of
whitewash magazine. As the cars
rim over the rails at a moderate gait,
tho developed sense of tlie division of
ficials notes any Inequalities, and at
each one a valve Is pressed, where nt
a dash of white wash tails on the
tract? at the points where later the
working gangs get busy to make
things even.
This homely "whitewash" car Is giv
ing way rapidly, however, to a movo
modern and scientific arrr.rjfement In
tho way of a handsome coach elegant
ly fitted out with many comforts, and
In which is to be found a delicate In
strument. This latter Is to construct
ed that It registers nil unevemiess In

cated on It the mileage and names of
stations along the way, so that when
a run is completed it wlil he shown
Just where repairing needs to be
done. The Indicating sheet Is sent to
the proper, department heads of the
company, and by them the work of
making the roadbed lovel Is prose
cuted. A Punctual re.islsr.cr.
A gentleman one day noticed a l.un-gry-looking
dog prc-.ling round his
yard, and struck by the ?cor brute's
famished appearance, he fetched a
large bone nnd by no means a bare
o'.io, which he threw to tho four-footed
vagabond. It was oaxctly twelve
o'clock when the bone wus given and
carried off.
The giver thought no more of the
matter, but evidently the dog did, for
on the following day at the same hour
he made his appearance, with an ex
pectant look about him which told
that be hoped for a further contribu
tion. Amused at the effort to establish
himself as an out-pensloner, and de
sirous of finding out wnelher the dog's
arrival at this particular time was a
mere chance, the gentleman gave him
a Becond supply of food.
Punctual to time, the dog presented
himself on the third, looking even
more confident than before. He was
duly fed, and for a great length of
time this self-elected penslouer made
his dally apearance at his patron's
door with notable punctuality.
One Is led to wonder whether the
dog may have regulated his own move
ments by observing those of somo In
dividual In going to and from his
work, and whether when the four
footed animal was a few minutes late
It might be because the bi;:t was un
punctual or his clock slow.
Famous Woman Explorer.
Mrs. Marie Robinson Wright of
Georgia Is believed to hold the record
tor having accomplished more In the
way of penetrating countries hitherto
unknown than any other living wom
an, with the possible exception of Mrs.
Fanny Bullock Workman. She is
called by some "the Columbus of
South America." from tho fact that
alio, undaunted by hardships and per
ils In the countries she has visited,
has opened to the pioneers of trade
and commerce a new paradise that
blooms south of the equator, where
untold wealth awaits development at
the hands of civilized man. Sho es

Sad laie rrom emporia.
A well-fed horse drove Into town
behind a span of ancient men, whoa
knees were sore from falling down
and striving to get up again; their
poor old ribs were bare of meat, and
they had cores Ufon their necks;
there wasn't. on tho village
street, a tougher lacking pair of
wrecks. And sa. tlu-y shambled u;i
the street, a spectre Harnessed with a
ghost; the horse descended from hi.
seat, and left them standing by a pos:.
And there they stood through half
the night, and shook and shivered in
the tugs, the while their master, hi
delight, was shaking dice with other
plugs. And there they died of grlei
and cold no more they'll haul the
heavy plow; tiieir cia t r said, whe"

TUB CONJURER CONPKSIS.
He Is Deliberate In Action Thus Pro.

That "tho hsnd la quicker than the

invented by so:ue one who knew noth.
tug of conjuring or, as is more likely,
by some cunn'ug conjurer who aimed
still furt'ier to hoodwink a gullible
public. Tlie fact Is thnt the best con
jurer seldom makes a rapid motion,
for that attracts attention, even
though It be not understood. Tho
true artist In this line Is deliberate
In every movement, and It Is mainly
by bis actions that he leads his audi

but In an entirely different direction.
Mr. David Devant, who for a number
of consecutive years has entertained
London with bis Ingenious tricks, has
said: "The co-ijuror must be an ac

by his gestures, by the tone of his
voice, In short, by his acting, he must
produce his effects."
Women as Mayors.
America had women as mayor be
fore England, Australia or even New
Zealand. In the four States whero
women bnve full suffrage it Is not
rare for women to be elected as may
ors in small cities and give good ser
vice. A woman was mayor of fiaylor,
Kan., for two terms and declined a
third election. She rlded herself on
the fact that more mlls of sidewalk
were laid In bcr administration thnn
In that of any previous mayor. Her
husband always expressed himself as
pleased that she should hold the offlce,
and even her worst enemies never
said that she neglected her children
or the duties of her household. The
offlce kept her busy about an hour
each day.
Japanese Story Tellers.
The professional story teller Is a
good deal of an ariist In his way. He
knows how to celect or originate
short, popular tales, and how to re
late thera in dramatic fashion. The
lowest class of story tellers you will
find seated on the street-corners with
a crowd of coolies around them. Tho
higher class are formed Into guild-t,
and these are hired to go to private
parties to amuse tho guests. Some
times they will be In demand at two
or three bouaes In one evening, thus
picking up several dollars. Unless he
can earn his living by his recitals, the
teller cannot become a member of the
guild. Translations from English
tales are now extremely popular with
the Japanese,
Kipling His Own Critic.
"I was sitting with Kipling In his
garden at Rottlngdean when a street
organ struck up 'The Absent Minded
Beggar.' Kipling was silent one mo
ment, nnd tuen he said, 'If It was not
suicide I would kill the man who
wrote that' " This Interesting revela
tion was made by the Rev. J. C. Hni
rls, pastor of Kingston Congregational
Church, in a lecture on Kipling. It
was hard to believe, he said, that the
man who could write "The Reces
sional" could descend to the level of
"Pay! Pay! Pay!" No man was more
keenly olive to his own blunders than
Kipling.
Tho French Cohoolboy's Hard Day.
French children are oiten on their
way to school a Utile after 7 o'clock
in the morning. If they have conclud
ed their lesons by 9 o'clock In the
evening It Is only by dint of great ap
plication. Young men studying for the
higher professions have appointments
with their tutors at 5 o'clock in the
morning In summer time; otherwise
they cannot accomplish the mountain
of work that lies before them. In all
branches of art the labor of the tyro
Is Immense. At the Conservatoire the

which provokes the astonishment
even of laborious German students.

Swift-Flying Pigeons.
B. A. Fogg, of Hunt's Mills. Me.
tells of a pair of pigeons with a record
of flying from Minneapolis to Bostoi
in fifty hours without taking a morsel
of food on the trip. For the last

of a fierce snowstorm. He has an
other pair of the same breed sb those

several pairs that can make nearly a

Liquid Shesp.
A business communication In Arabic
recently reached a Manchester tirm,
and when translated by a Syrian in

for the price of coppering "two water

The translator was confident of his
version, but admitted that he did not
knpw what "water sheep" could be.
For the moment even the heads of the
firm were puzzled, until It struck
some one that this was the nearest
synonym in the vocabulary of a pas
