Peculiarly Of American Eyes.

The efforts of the War Department to
secure a iield-glass of greater power
than the one they now use has discov-
cred the fact that the eyes of the aver
age American are closer together than
those of men in foreign countries. The
double glass, known rs the field-glass,
now used, is weaker than that used in
the armies of Europe. 1t is only from
five TO six powers--entirely too weak
for the purpose. The only glass they
can get of sufficient power is n single
spy-glass which is defective in that it
does not take in broad enough field.
This is very serious defect in the
equipment of the American army. but
there seems to be no immediate pros
pect Of its correction. because our eyes
are too close together. Some of the
colored troops may be able to use diff
terent glass, but the white Yankee SOL
dier can not overcome this national
popularity. Tho best military field.
glass in use is that with which the
German army is supplied. An attempt
was made to adopt them by the War
Department, but it was found that the
eyes of the glasses were so far apart
that they could not be used by Amer
leans. The Department is studying
how to overcome this difficulty. -Phil.

sliced peaches. cut up with sugar, pour
over all thin boiled custard.
If the brcastbone Of q fowl will
bend under moderate pressure then
you can consider your subject young
enough to broil. but if not, then by all
means stew it, and save the carver la
Dor and humiliation.
In drilling glass, stick piece OF
stuff clay or putty on the part whero
you wish to make the hole. Make n
hole in the putty the size you wait the
hole, reaching to the glass, of course.
Into this hole pour a little molten lead.
when. unless it is very thick glass, the
piece will Immediately drop out

All fruits are liable TO mold when
exposed to dampness, and those in
glasses should always be covered with
papers wet with white of egg or butter
Press the paper on the fruit or jelly, so
that no air can remain underneath;
then, il there is any mold, il can easily
be removed with the paper. Good

For canning Strawberries the fol-
lowing rule is a good one: Hull and
wash the berries, that is. rinse well. to
remove particles of sand that are quite
liable TO be lodged among them. Place
in porcelain kettle-this taking pre-
cedence Of the old brass-wth water
to cover about one-half the berries,
stew until soft, add sugar and seal.
Honey Cake. One teacup of strain
ed honey q the honey is candied take
two-thirds of a cup and fill up with
boiling water and stir it welD, onc-half
teacup of thick. sour cream, fill up the
cup with sour milk. one and one-half
teaspoonfuls of soda, one tcaspoonful
of salt, two tcacups of siftcd -four and
any spice desired. Bake in a shallow
pan with n moderate fire, and watch
carefully to prevent it burning.
"A good way to use cold veal or
