Acres OF Pie.


The Grand Army boys without doubt
were feted to their hearts content, and
a New England feast is incomplete
without pie.
Two hundred Thousand visitors swoop-
ed down upon us and all ate pie-no,
not all, but let us say 1901 900 tested its
dainty merits. That means at the least
estimate 100000 pies day, for while
some revel in their delights at every
meal more rest content with a tooth
some triangle at but one gastronomic
round. The bakers of the city were
alive to their opportunity. They felt
that the credit of the city and their own
future well being were at stake. Two
centuries and half of an unbroken line
of pie eaters looked down upon them.
The figures are amazing. -Four apples
make pie. About pound of other in
gradients, as -four, sugar, lard, spices
and elbow grease, complete the struct-
ure. A good 70 per cent. of all the pies
consumed were apple pies, and right on
them rests the goodly spectacle in its
full sublimity. For $4,000 pies day.

apples were required.
All the boys in Boston could hardly
steal the apples in one day, even if the
old man was away at camp meeting and
the dog was dead. A barrel of flour
furnishes crust enough for 300 pies. OF
flour alone 1900 barrels were required.
A days product of one of our largest re-
fneries was used to sweeten the vast ag-
gregation. This on the apple pies alone.
There is another way to look at it. Pies
are about foot in diameter. Every one
knows that this is little less than three
quarters of square foot. The next OBJ
vious step in the figuring leads to $685.
$50 square feet. Nearly 600 feet square,
or about one-third again as large as
either of the ball grounds-all carpeted
, with pie.-Boston Record.

A Refreshing Bath.

A warm salt bath is very refreshing to
any one suffering from exhaustion Of
travel or of long shopping expedition,
which is as trying to mind and body as
anything which can be undertaken by a
woman. Away from the seashore a very
simple substitute for sea water is cup
of rock salt dissolved in warm water and
added to the bath. When the salt is irri-
tating to the skin, take warm bath and
sponge off with mixture of violet or
lavender water and alcohol, about half
and half, and rub briskly with the warm
friction towel. Such method prevents
the exhaustion and danger of cold which
follows warm bath.-Herald of Health

Another Divided Skirt.

A novel and most ingenious skirt,
made without any foundation, has been
introduced for the benefit of ladies who
ride bicycles, shoot, go yachting, climb
ing or touring. The bottom of the skirt
is closed, the feet passing through two
holes, and the garment drawn on leaves
the ankles and limbs incased i'll a pair of
tight fitting CATERS. This contrivance
is intended to be buttoned to an ordinary
dress. The material used is waterproof,
and the wearer is shut in from all ex-
posure to cold or dampness. 1t can be
worn with any short of shoes, but it is
clumsy and ugly, two very good reasons
why it will not be favorably received

Two Ways of Riding.

The Princess of Wales is responsible
for the right and left positions in
the saddle now obligatory to every
equestrienne. Owing to chronic lame
ness in her right limb she is forced
to use o left side saddle. To make
the fact less conspicuous the princesses
have been trained to ride in both
right and left saddle seats. A few
horsewomen in New York while abroad
caught the idea and have since intro
duced the fashion of two saddles. There
is in consequence great rejoicing among
the saddlers and riding teachers.-New
York Letter.

that Miss Mcintosh, who has great
talent for mechanics, has just perfected
another invention more remarkable than
her first, but its nature is as yet a secret

BALTIMORE, Dec. 22.-Considerablc con
Germ is felt here for the steamship Thane-
more of the Johnston Line, which sailed
on November 70 from this port for Lon
don, her cargo comprising 1870 head of
cattle, IL, li3 bushels OF corn, l,i50 bales
of cotton and other merchandise. valued
at Sl75,52 She has not been sighted or
spoken since she left this side, and the
impression is that she has been wrecked.
TLc Thanemore passed out of the capes
on November q, some hours behind the
Atlantic transport steamship Maryland,
which was caught i'll u terrific hurricane,
lost her captain and two seamen, and was
nearly wrecked. The track of both vessels
was the same, and the Thanemore un-
doubtcdly encountered the same gale. She
was a staunch craft but much older than
the Maryland, and scarcely as strong. 4
report that she had been spoken off the
Lizard has turned out to he inaccurate, as
denial has been cabled by the London
agents. The local agents last week offered
a premium of % per cent. for insurance,
but were refused.
The Thanemore Is commanded by Cap
tain Butcher, who is making his first voy-
age as master He Is an expert seamen of
long experience and highly regarded. She
has first, second and third officer, chief

Besides these there were number of cat
