From Jack-Knives to Diamonds.

There's man." said the oracle, as he
walked down Broadway with the town
listener, "who deserves great deal Of
credit"
He pointed, not at man, but at a
battered sign on the other side of the
street, which indicated that business Ia
diamonds was carried on within.
That man." continued the oracle,
''begsn life with swapping jack knives.
He used to go around the streets, with Q
little bundle of cutlery under his arm,
and his method was to approach and ask
man II he didn't want 10 exchange his
old penknife for new one Of frst-class
Sheffield make About nine times in ten
the stranger would accept the invitation
Then the peripatetic dealer In blades
would open his bundle and negotiations
would begin. The end OF 1t was general
ly that the stranger received good new
knife in exchange for his own blade and
gave the dealer little something ito
boot" The old knives were cleaned,
polished, aud supplied with new handles,
and swapped over again. The idea was
novel and the originator made good
deal Of money out of it. When he had
amsssed q snug little capital, he set up a
diamond-loan business over there. and he
is worth cold million now. When the
dudes want money they 60 in to see him
and raise the wind on their diamonds.
He won't take any other kind of security.
and he makes money hand over hand"

Toad In the Hole"

TOAD In the hole" is an old English
recipe that may have delighted the heart
Of Sir Roger de Coveriy, and exercised
the talent Of his cook. Take two pounds
Of tender beef steak. cut it into rather
thick pieces about four inches long,
sprinkle over them little pepper and
salt. Pit a piece Of butter in pan
over fire, .d-op them in and brown
without thoroughly cooking them. But
ter pudding dish and place the meat in
1t; put little boiling water in the fry.
ing pan and pour the resulting brown
gravy into the dish, navoring with O
teaspoonful of catsup. Prepare batter
OF one pint Of milk; two eggs well beaten
and six even tablespoonsfull Of -four,
smoothly rubbed up with q little milk.
Pour this gently over the meat and bake
for one hour. This makes a pleasant
change when one is tired of beef-steak
cooked in the ordinary way.-The Con
tinent.
