mixture in baking dish, make de.
pressions in it the size of an egg and
break an egg IN each hollow. Bake a
delicate brown in good oven.
PREPARING RHUBARB.-Rhubarb, a
much despised dish by many. can be
made very delicious if cooked in
this way: Wash it, cut it up in inch
pieces, place in stone crock, cover
we'll with white sugar, using no wat
er whatever, and place it in the oyen
to bake about twenty-five minutes.
In making pies of it use strips across
the top for change. Even change

makes it taste better.
CUsTARD JELLY.-Make boiled
custard of one quart of sweet milk,
three eggs. teacup sugar, two tea
spoons of vanilla; dissolve one.half
box of gelatine in as little water as
will cover it, and when we'll dissolved
add the juice of three lemons. or one
lemon and two glasses of sherry; stir
the custard we'll while pouring in the
mixture; strain through sieve into
mould. Serve with whipped cream
favored with vanilla, or with rich
cream.
VEAL FRICAsEE WITH PEAs.-Cut
two pounds of lean veal in moderate
sized pieces. and stew slowly in
little water till tender. About fif-
teen minutes before dinner add to
the liquor two tablespoonfuls of
flour rubbed smooth in a little
cold water, and enough salt and
pepper to season. Have quart of
peas boiled and sailed, drain them
and add to the veal and broth, and
pour all upon large platter. 1t is
very nice if the veal is cooked slow.
ly enough and the other directions
carefully followed.
Fowl A LA MAYoNNA1sE.-Roast a
young fowl, and when cold cut it up
into joints. Put a layer of tender
lettuce leaves on dish, and on this
layer of the chicken. Over these
slice hard boiled eggs, about two,
two anchovies and a few capers.
Now add another layer of chicken,
some washed water-cress busted with
a little dry mustard powder. Top
the dish with some of the center
leaves of lettuce, the wings and some
small pieces from the breast. Gar.
nish with slices of eggs, and pour q
mayOnnaise over the whole.
ONIONS WITH CHEEsE.-Peel and cut
into half.inch slices some large, good
onions-Spanish ones are the best,
Lay these slices in a we'll creased
baking tin, and put them in a nice
hot oven till they are baked lovely
golden yellow. Then take them out,
and sprinkle them over with salt
and pepper. Cover each slice with
thick coating of grated cheese, or
put on each thin slice of cheese.
Return them to the oven and let
them remain just long enough to
melt the cheese. Remove them from
the baking tin-when done enough

the shape; arrange them neatly on a
hot dish, and serve at once.

TO HUSBANDS.

Always complain of being very tired,
and remember that nobody else ever gets
tired.
Your wife shorld have everything in
readiness for you, but you should do
nothing for her.
When your wife asks you for money
give her nickel ask her what she wants
with II, and when she tells you, ask her
if she can't do without it. Then GO
down town and spend ten times the
mount for cigars, for they are necessity.
Go down town OF an evening, stand
on the street corners and talk politics {;
It's more interesting than to stay at home
with your family.
Clarge your wife not to- gossip, but
you can spin all the yarns you wish.
Have your wife get up and make fires,
hut don't get up yourself till the rest OF
the family are eating breakfast, as you
might catch cold.
Wear old clothes and make yourself
as untidy as possible until your wife's
hesl;h fails; then it would be best fol
YOU to fix up bit, for in all probability
you will want another when she is gone

Joseph McFadden.

The late Joseph McFadden, Sr.,
was born March Y, 1894, IN Wash
ington county, Pa, and died Oct. 4,
1886, OF paralysis. When in early
manhood he was located for a short
time in Harrison county, Ohio, re-
turned thence to Pennsylvania and
settled in East Liberty, Fayette
county, where he was married to
Rachel Newell in 1922. Thomas,
the only son still living, is a resident
of Allegheny county, Pa, was with
him in his last hours. Joseph Nc
Fadden was again married to Mary
Jameson (who survives himl at East
Liberty, Penna. They removed to
Perryopolis,the same county,in 1874,
from thence to McDonough county,
Ills, in 1867, where they remained
till 1874 when they settled in Audu-
bon county, about three miles east
of this place, where he continued to
reside until his decease. To this
couple seven children were born,
three boys and four girls, of whom
but three remain, John and Joseph,
Jr., and Hester, the daughter whose
unremitting attentions comforted his
last years.
Mr.. McFadden was an active
member Of the M. E. church for
more than sixty years, was strong in
his belief and never lost an opportu-
nifty to attend the means OF grace
until age deprived him Of the priv
ilege.

FIGURING Mill Destroyed by Fire.

The populace was awakened from
the sound slumbers enjoyed on the
first cold nights Of the fall at about
1890 yesterday morning by the ring
ing of the fire bells and the horrify-
ing cry of fire. 1t took but glance
to locate the whereabouts of the
destroying blaze for the flames were
breaking out OF the top and sides Of
the steam Touring mill OF Messrs.
Nicholson Bros, located in the ex.
IRENE northwest part OF town. The
fire departments were very soon at
the scene of the conhagration, but
the flames were under such Roadway
that their efforts were Of little avail.
The building burned TO its tounda-
ton without abatement and nothing
was saved from the flames. The
entire structure was of pine and
burned quickly, so that the machinery
was not so badly injured as it might
have been had the heat been more
intense. A local machinist is of the
opinion that the engine can be set
running again in two weeks. Some
water in the engine boiler became
very hot when the fire was at It's
height and the escaping steam
frightened timid bystanders into n
disorganized though quite general
retreat, and when score of cartridges
that had been left in the building
were discharged the loud explosion
had no tendency to restore the con-
fidenc of the tmid ones in the safety
OF the situation. The building was
isolated and as there was no breeze
to direct the flames, other property
was not imperiled.
The loss is $4,000 on building
and machinery besides the large
quantity of grain that was stored
in the numerous bins. They carried
$4,000 on building and machinery
and $1,000 on stock. The milling
enterprise has proven a good invest
ment to its proprietors and it is
expected that they will rebuild,
although this will not be determined
until the nonresident partner, who
lives at Carlisle, shall make known
his wishes. The mill was erected
in 1889 by Getes & Walkup.

New Flour and Feed Store.

VIM. Cloughly has rented the
basement of DR.. J. F. Cloughly's
drug store and will soon be prepared
to supply the demands OF all parties
for -four and feed of all kinds. He
departed today for Minnesota to visit
the different milling points and in
doing so will secure his stock at such
prices that he will be able to furnish
flour and feed at astonishingly low
prices. He will buy very large
stock and will sell in any quantity
that may be desired, from ten
pound sack to car load lot. He
will put up a telephone for COM
munication from his own store to
the feed room, and orders should be
left at his dug store. The new
enterprise will prove an accommo-
dation to farmers and others in want
of feed in large quantities.
