Bogus Pictures.

A leading critic has this to say regard
ing bogus pictures; The counterfeiting Of
pictures is SO serious an evil, and SO
dangerous fraud, extensively practiced
as 1t is by dealers and clever masters of
the technical detail of art, that the peo-
pie are likely to grow so suspicious that
they will doubt the genuineness of all
paintings unless they have actually seen
them on the easels Of the artists. The
most distinguished names are those often
est counterfeited, and the fraud is most
commonly practiced when the men are
dead, as in the case of Corot and Diaz.
If those two famous painters produced q
fraction Of all the pictures which have
been sold as theirs within the last five or
ten years, besides those known to be
authentic, they must have welded the
brush with both fingers and toes, and
worked twenty-four hours day without
ceasing. The majority of our picture
buyers, who buy most and pay the high
est prices, are governed in making their
purchases by names MISUNDERSTANDING

Diabetes Bread.

In dietetic treatment of diabetes one OF
the greatest difficulties experienced is to
provide for the patient suitable bread.
That in common use is, of course, for
hidden, for if eaten, even in moderation.
it is scarcely possible to effect cure
Much Of the diabetic bread on the mar
ket is very little, if any, better for the
purpose than ordinary bakers bread.
Many ways Of making diabetic bread
have been advised. A recent contribu-
ton by DR.. O'Donnell is as follows: Six
eggs are thoroughly beaten, and then
q teaspoonful of baking powder, or it's
chemical equivalent, and quarter Of q
teaspoonful of salt are added, and again
thee eggs arebeaten. This mixture, poured
into hot waffle irons smeared with but
ter, is baked in a very hot oven. Fol-
variety, and to make these biscuits seem
more like coarse bread, pulverized nuts
of those permitted may be added. They
may be eaten hot with butter and cheese,
but will remain good for long time and
nobody would suspect that they were des-
titute of flour.-Boston Herald.

fury. The rolls of the horses illustrate
the custom of recording the description
and value of every horse employed in a
campaign in order that, if it was killed,
the owner might claim its price. The
horses entered in the rolls are described
either as chargers, or hackneys, or as
being of Welsh breed, or else are dis
tinguished simply by color. The highest
price at which charger is assessed seems
to be 70 marks, which, considering the
purchasing power of money with respect
to other articles, was certainly a large
sum. William de Ferrers. who followed
Lord Hugh lie Dispenser, had a black
charger, assessed at that price: but the
average value of a good charger seems
to have been about go marks. Some
hackneys were valued as low as marks
though 10 and 10 marks were the more
usual prices; in few cases, however, "a

The burly squire had hitherto remained

thing which glittered in the sunlight;
there was a click, and the young man
with the cigarette was securely hand

"You will pick up your cigarette aHA

Squire who proved to be detective

The cigarette was clumsily picked up
with both hands and dropped out of the
