Lo, and behold there was, indeed,
the gray mare with her head poked
out of the window, gazing down
with her great eyes on her master

very much her exalted situation, and

French method, in it's manner of

will see at certain hours in the Paris
streets salads placed in wired baskets,
to which gentle centrifugal motion
is impaired by some careful
me'eagere. Another way is to use a
napkin, and after shaking out the
salad carefully, to dry it leaf by leaf.
But both these processes require

the salad should be pulled leaf by

however, the center. First, in a
wooden spoon, mix salt and pepper,
which scatter over the salad. The I

turning over of the salad, and lastly
comes the vinegar. There is philo.

effects of the acetic acid. A first

the dressing, it is only the outside

as completely as he had done.
1t was only short time ago that
two OF Mr. Thompson's vestrymen-
both low churchmen of the lowest
type, called on their rector and found
him so earnestly engaged in game
OF euchre that he requested them to
sit down a moment until he should
have finished the game. Those two
men. both of whom had amassed
much sinful learning in their youth,
were struck with horror at the ma
ture OF the clergyman's position.
They heard him with their own ears
remark, Il make it next and play it
alone" AMI saw him play both bow
ers, the ace and king, and end the
game with march"
Master Charles then hastily gath
cred up the cards, and pleading an
errand down town, fled overwhelmed
with terror at his inevitable detec-
tion. We can family imagine the
surprise and remorse of Mr.. Thomp-
son when he learned that for months
he had been in the habit OF playing
at home the game that he denounced
in the pulpit Nothing could con-
vince the vestrymen that the clergy
man was innocent. They lost no
time in calling meeting OF the
church, and after recital of Mr..
Thompson's wickedness and hypoc-
risy they obtained an almost unani,
mously-signed request for the rectors
resignation. Mr.. Thompson is now
without charge, and the Jealous
vestrymen are currently believed to
be about to carry the church over to
the Reformed Episcopalians.
AS for the depraved Master

great hopes are entertained by the

Clinton that he has goue TO fight the
