Length Of the Mississippi.

Mark Twain mourns over the dimin-
ished length of the Mississippi in this
strain: Therefore, the Mississippi, be-
tween Cairo aud New Orleans.
was 1.2l5 miles long 176 years
ago. 1t was 1,1SO after the
cutoff of 1922. It was 1,O40 after
the American bend cutoff, some years
ago. 1t has lost 81 miles since. Con-
sequeptly. its length is only 97S miles
at present. Now. If I wanted to be
one of those ponderous scientific peo-
pie, and to prove what had occurred in
the long past BY what had occurred in a
given time in the recent past, or what
will occur in the far future by what has
occurred in late years, what an oppor-
tunity is here! Geology never had such
chance, nor such exact data to argue
from! Nor development o. species,
either. Glacial epochs are great things.
but they are va2ue--vague. Please oo-
serve. In the space OF 176 years the
lower Mississippi has shortened itself
242 miles. That is an average of a
triile over ono mile and a third per
year. Therefore. any calm person.
who is not blind or idiotic, can see in
the old Oolitic Silurian period. just
1000. 600 years ago. next November.
the lower Mississippi River was upward
OF ], 800, 900 miles long, and stuck out over
the Gulf of Mexico like fishing rvd.
And, by the same token, any person
can see that 742 years from now the
Mississippi will be only n mile and a
quarter long. and Cairo and New Or
leans will have joined their streets to-
gether. and be plodding comfo tably
along under single Mayor and q mu-
tual Board of Aldermen. There is
something fascinating about science.
One gets such wholesale returns of con
lecture out of such a triiiing investment

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.

Fried Bread. -Slicss Of toasted
bread dipped in milk and fried In honey
are excellent. Then instead Of calling
them "fried bread" thew are torejaS,
an excellent Spanish delicacy. Melt
the honey into q pan, and when 1t is
very hot put in the bread, which Is
served hot, also. after becoming nicely
Drowned.
Delicious croquettes of rice are
made thus: Take one quart of boiled
rice (if possible boil the rice the day be-
fore you wish to make the croquettes),
three eggs and little salt. If the rice
is very moist put in rolled crackers; add
q very little sugar. Put some flour on
the kneading board. and drop a spoon
full of the rice on the board. roll it in a
long roll and drop into hot lard and fry
q Ia fried cakes.
Apple Float-Six large apples,
two spoonfuls white sugar, juice of one
lemon, whites of three eggs. Stew the
apples very soft and lay them on a
sieve to drain and cool. Remove the
skins and cores before cooking. When
cool put them on a fiat dish, add the
sugar, lemon and egg, and beat with an
egg-beater to q stiff froth. Fill your
bowl or custard-cups with soft custarl
and pile the froth on it as high as it will
stand.
1T is safe to have q rule for making
the simple things in cooking, and SO he
sure of satisfactory and uniform re-
suits Here is an excellent rule for
preparing mustard for the table: Take
two tablespoonfuls of mustard. one ta-
blespoonful Of flour, mix them we'll
while dry. then take half q cupful of
strong vinegar. fill the cup with water.
stir the mustard and flour with this, cook
it as you would boiled custard; when
it is thick enough take from the fire and
add one teaspoonful of sugar.
Where the soil is naturally deep
and mellow unusually deep plowiny is
not necessary for onions or any other
crop Deep blowing is required for the
purpose of making deep soil. and
when this exists naturally there is no
necessity for the plowing. The longer
better they succeed, adequate manur-
ing of course being given; and q good
method of culture is to plow the soil
deeply as soon as the crop is gathered
in the fall or late summer, and then 10
plow it again in the spring not SO deep
ly: this in time produces q deep rich
soil and very productive one, but it
requires the same Infringement to keep
it in good condition.
Corn Starch Pudding, with Eggs
One pint of rich milk; two tab espoons-
full of corn starch; one scant half cupful
o. sugar; three or four eggs-the
whites; little salt and flavoring. Beat
the eggs to a stiff froth; dissolve in a
little of the milk; stir the sugar into the
remainder, which place on the fire.
When it begins to boil, add the dis
solved corn starch. Stir constantly for
q few minutes; now stir in the beaten
whites. and let it remain only q moment
or two longer. Flavor with vanilla
CRATE half of q cocoanut, or with
chopped pine apple, strawberries, o r
dried cherries swollen in water, or dis
solve one half q bar OF chocolate in a
little milk and mix it with one third OF
the pudding and put into the mold in
layers, first white. then brown. then
white. Serve with boiled custard sauce
or whipped cream.
