About Ice Desserts.

No desserts are so tempting In the
warm weather as frozen delicacies of
all sorts. although these are not recon-
mended as hyg enic by those who are
conversant with the laws of human d.
gest on. When eaten without other
food and not too fast, ices may be per-
fectly harmless. In France, where they
have most delicious ices and frozen
creams, there is greater variety and
more taste in their preparation. than
with us. They never mix the fruit and
cream, as we ignorantly do. Acid
fruits should never be mixed with
cream, lest the cream should curdle, as
it must do in the nature of things.
Fruit ices should always be water ices.
Whole fru in ices is decidedly object
iona5le as the fruit hardens in the
freezer and only spoils the comfort in
eating without adding anything to inn
prove the ice. Pineapple ice, straw
berry and cherry ice, as well as orange.
lemon and apricot. are made as we
make the lemon and raspberry ices in
this country, while vanilla and brandy,
and sometimes liquors. are used to fla
vcr the frozen cream. One most de-
lic.ous ice is the cafe par fait, 4 great
ia, orite in France and elsewhere where
it is known. As this is not frozen very
hard, it is, perhaps. more allowable
than many other frozen desserts. 1t IS
so simple that ibis well worth trying, il
one has freezer already in the house.
1t requires a quart Of rich cream and
the whites of six eggs, with half cup
OF strong coffee, cup and a half OF
sugar and tea-spoonful OF corn starch.
The cream should be whipped very
ligh. and strong and put in a sieve to
drain. The whites of the eggs also are
whipped into stiff froth. Take the
liquid cream remaining after the whip
is removed and add the coffee and the
tea-spooniul of corn starch to thicken it.
After it has been sufficiently boiled and
is perfectly smooth cool the mixture
and freeze. When frozen line melon
mold with the coffee cream, then mix
the eggs and cream and sugar and fill
the mold to the top. Pack the mold in
ice and salt, and let it stand for ar
hour or more. This quantity ought t.
fill q two quart mold. This is very del
icate to eat with Observation-Disclosures

The Strawberry Man.

He does not have the nose of horse
trader nor the squirt of the man who
goeth about with learned pig, but he
is sharper than either. He can not use
the sophistry of college graduate, nor
the profundity of a statesman. bat his
arguments go right to the heart. His
voice crying On the sunbaked air:
STRAW bu-ries great big straw-bu-
RESI- does not compare with the roar
of a lion or the sweet voice of the maid
en-. but it brings him cash customers.
See how carefully he plans that the
biggest berries shall roll to the top!
See how deity he manipulates the
mashed and understood ones so that no
customer sees them until the measure
has been filled and emptied! The man
who succeeds must put his best foot
foremost. The berry which sells must
show its best side to the woman cram
ING her neck over the hind wheel OF the
strawberry wagon.
The measure may have been inspect
ed. 1t may hold a quart. 1t is for the
jury to give the prisoner the benefit OF
the doubt. Notice him as he fills the
measure. Do you see him shake it?
Not shake! 1t is held with rigid
clatch. the berries are scoOped in swiftly
and poured out at dash. and it is only
after he has turned the corner that you
remember he held his thumb on the in
side of the measure. The statesman may
wink, but the strawberry mans thumb
fills a cash cavity in quart measure.
The orator may bring down the house
with peroration, but the strawberry

Tho Nile Criers.

When the inundation approaches the
Capital-usuaIly at the end of June or
the beginning of July-the Nile criers
(Muna- di-en-NiD begin their WORK.
These criers are men whose business il
is to call out, or rather to recite. before
the houses of those who wish it. how
much the Nile has risen during the past
twenty-four hours. The Oriental does
everything, no matter what it is, grave
w, slowly, with much dignity and YER
bosity, and is never chary of his time OF
breath. Even the form Of his greeting
in the street is complicated ceremony
of words and motions which usually
takes some moments to perform. And
in the same way this announcement of
the river rise, which seems to us such
simple matter, is a most serious af-
fair.
The day before the crier begins his
task he goes through the streets accom-
panied by boy, whose part it is to act
as chorus, and to sing the responses at
the proper moment. The crier Sings:
God has looked graciously upon the fields"
Response: "Oh! day of glad tidings."
"To-lnorrow begins the announcement"
Response: MAY is be followed by SUCCESS" "
Before the crier proceeds to give the
information so much desired, he intones
with the boy lengthy, alternating
chant, in which he praises God, i'm.
plores blessings on the Prophet
and all believers, and on the
master of the house and all his chill.
dren. Not until all this has been care.
fully gone through does he proceed to
say the Nile has risen SO many inches.
This ceremony is carried on until the
month of September, when the river has
reached its eliminating point, and the
crier, as bringer q such good news,
never fails to claim his ''baksheesh' -
sometimes humbly, and sometimes, too,
very imperiously.
The reports of these men, who in all
Egyptian towns are the ambulent ad-
vertisers of the state of Nile, are not
always reliable. This is partly owing
to the fact that, with true Oriental in
difference, they do not take the trouble
to &C luire exact information at the only
reliable sources, and also that the Gov
eminent intentionally spreads false re-
perts in regard to the advance Of the in
undation. AS the land tax can not be
levied on certain large tracts of land
until the rise of the Nile shall have
reached at least sixteen Egyptian yards,
it does not hesitate Ca fact that has
come within my own experience) to
spread false reports, and although the
imposition is patent to all, no one dares
to raise his voice in remonstrance.-

The Escape f;s-eaptursd.

On Tuesday last it Vas whispered
about town that David Francis, the

from Bodie, was watched for time
and finally arrested on suspicion. As,
however. he made no approach to the
requirements of the description fur.

his track where he left the grade,
followed the trail to Luning. This
was on Tuesday, and ON Wednesday
Tovey and Sheriff Robb went south on
the train with view of intercepting
him at Belleville or finding where he
went from there. At Soda Springs
they learned that stranger, answer
ing the description OF the escape, had
been seen there, and lust before the
train left word WAS brought to the
Sheriff that he was tlen in sight.

Francis was unarmed and made no
resistance. He still had on his convict
shirt, but had placed his undershirt on

of pants somewhere and did not show
any prison garb. He said he was try
ing to make his way to Mexico, but
had missed his road and became con
fused when he found himself in Bodie.
As he claims that he had eaten only
three times in eight days, he will
probably find some consolation for the
loM of his liberty and the insultingly
small reward offered for him, in haw.
ing plenty to eat during the remainder
of his term.
