A decided acquisition TO the staff
Of the Cosmopolitan Magazine Is
Mr.. Brander Mathews, President Of
the Nineteenth Century Club, the
woll.known iitterateur, who takes
charge of the department of book
reviews. The keen critical taote Of
Mr., Mathews, and his fine judg lnent
in literary matters, will make his
opinion valued in every household.

Queer Incident In a Welsh Church.

A London paper relates a queer Incl
dent that happened in a Welsh Church
the other Sunday. The rector began to
rebuke his people in severe terms for not
attending Sunday morning service, and
%impartially included his own daughters
in the rebuke. "Whereupon, to his as
constituent, says the story, cup jumped
one of his daughter and told the people
that her father was a man who, when he
first woke, could not rise unless his hot
water was brought and the towel was
placed under his nose. She related how
boots had to be cleaned, fires lighted
and the breakfast prepared, and then
went on to describe how the worthy
clergyman required his book and his coat
and his gloves and his stick and-his
cake and his wine before he was ready
to start to his work. This was all de-
tailed with minuteness and volubility.
The reverend father kept no servant, and
there was the household work to be done,
and, besides, insisted upon a hot dinner
served with punctuality. Under these
circumstances, the lady pleaded, was it
possible for her to get to worship on a
Sunday morning2 The sympathies of
the audience were with the daughter. -

If these cookies are properly made no
other cookie recipe will eyer be used,
says the HouseEeeper's Weekly. Cream
one cup of butter and two cups of sugar.
To this add n t%easpoonful of rose
water and one pinch of salt. Then slit
in sufficient -four to make a very soft
dough, in which one t~easpoonful of bak-
ing powder has been mixed. Be sure
that the dough is not stiff, and use
neither milk o water. Flour the bake
board well, take a piece of dough, and,
after sprinkling the rolling pin with -four,
roll out very quickly as thin as the
blade of a knife. Cut some out round
and some long shape. Grease . baking
pan and fill it with cakes. The oven
must be moderate and the cakes must be
watched closely. They must be taken
from the oven before they are colored.
They will harden as soon as they leave
the pan, and if they are colored the APP
pealsnce will be spoiled.

A Memory Test.

In a Western court, q witness had
been detailing, with great minuteness,
certain conversations which had occurred
several years before. Again and again
the witness testified to names and dates,
and precise words, and it became neces.
sary for his crcss-examlner to break him
up. This was done by a very simple
device. While the witness vas glibly
rafting off his testimony, the cross,
examiner handed him a law-book and
said: "Read aloud a paragraph from
that book "What for2" inquired the
witness. st will tell you after you have
read it" said the lawyer, and the wit
ness accordingly read aloud a paragraph
of most undressing material about
lands, appurtenances, and hereditaments.
Then the lawyer went up and asked him
a few more questions ABOUT his memory,
and the witness was positive that his
memory was very good. Suddenly the
lawyer said: "By the way, will you
please repeat that paragraph you Just
read about lands, appurtenances ano
hereditments2" "Why, of course J
could not do that replied the witness
ssYou must have a queer memory" re-
torted the lawyer, ''since you can repeat
things that. you say occurred years ago,
and you can not repeat what You read .
moment ago." The witness was non
plused. "-Aayonaut.

i Iener Village in Colombia.

IA strange community is that of Aqua
Ill Dios, the leper villagein Colombia, as
described by our Consul at Bogota.
Situated at about fourteen hundred feet
above the sea level, with a dry, sandy
soil, and a temperature of eighty.two to
sIghty-fve degrees Fahrenheit, this spot
Hes been chosen for the lazzaretto by the
government on account of its ancient
reputation for the cure of leprosy. Some
dre hundred and twenty sufferers from
this terrible visitation dwell here, and
form about one-third of the populations
But The most remarkable fact regarding
the settlement is that lepers and healthy
persons are described as living on terms
III perfect intimacy, there being no spes
cihc leper quarter, though every house In
the village stands apart in a garden. Mr.
Wheeler states that there is no case on
record of the disease having been con-
tracted here by contagion. Even where
lepers have married healthy persons, the
husband or wife has never been known to
take it from the other. On the othez
hand. the mournful fact is admitted that
children born of such unions are gems
orally afHicted.-Londop Nesos.

Story of n Whales Pluck.

We have received the following letter
from Adelaide from DIR. Warrington
Caffyn: "I send you an instance of
pluck on the part of a whale. AS far as
I can learn it is the rarest thing for a
whale not to fear a steamer. Captain
Hepworth, British Naval Reserve, of the
steamship Port Adelaide, was taking his
sights one morning when he noticed a
large sperm whale alongside, SO close
that his spouting wetted the deck. The
creature had evidently lost his school
and mistaken us for n of his own
species. He remained with us for four
days and nights and travelled $50 nauti-
cal or 1925 statute miles without a rest,
and, as far as one could gather, without
food. He was never more than seventy
yards away, and for the most part close
against the ship, under her quarter
where the draught made swimming
easier for him. The length of the ami
NAL was about forty-seven feet. The
first day he was very lively, diving FIRE,
quently beneath the ships bottom, on
one occasion scratching himself severely.
After that he kept close alongside like a
tired Newfoundland dog. When he did
come up the children amused themselves
by throwing potatoes into his sblow
holes,' which were elected with great
force. If this monstrous mammal has
AIRY capacity for sorrow it must have been
a pathetic moment with him when at last
after his gallant struggle to stay with US
he had to throw up the sponge and re,
main alone in the center of the Indian
| Ocean."-PH Mall (Enolandl Gazette

4 spLENDID WASHING FLUID.


TO the tired housekeeper who must do
her own washing, every real aid is thing
invaluable. Many washing fluids are
sold that, after repeated using, rot the
clothes and render them useless long be-
fore they should be put aside.
To make a good, reliable fluid take
five pounds of washing soda, one-half
pound of fresh, unslaked lime, n pound
Of borax and four ounces Of liquid
ammonia.
Upon the soda and borax pour one gal
lon of boiling water; when it has thor
oughly dissolved add the ammonia. Stake
the lime in one gallon Of hot water and
LET stand open until entirely settled pouE
the clear liquid carefully off upon the
soda and borax water, and add TO the
mixture eight spoonfuls of this tiuld "a 9
tub of water and soak the clothes ID i

The financial furry came on, and it was
difficult to raise funds necessary for the
completion of the road. Yet large land
grants and heavy subsidies were depend
ent upon reaching of salt water by a
certain date. 1t was the intention to
place the western terminus of the North
ern Pacific far to the north and west OF
the present location, but in spite OF the
untiring efforts of inanciers in the East
and engineers in the West it was seen
That the point selected could never be
reached in time to save the lands and

ordered the engineers to press toward the
nearest point On the sound without re-

TO AERATE L

Unaerated milk is said to be a great
enemy of infants and one special cause Of
cholera infantum. The process of aerat-
ing milk is very simple, and consists in
allowing the milk to flow from one re-
ceptacle to another in fine streams, SO
that it may come in contact with cool,
pure air. If nothing better is at hand let
it u through q nice clean colander two
or three times. A better arrangement is
perforated milk pans, n above the
other, through which the milk may run
in fine streams. It is held that tyrotoxi-
con poison is generated in cream for the
want of proper aeration, and that this
causes cholera infantum. Aerated milk
is better to use than milk cooled upon
ice.-Neso York Voice.
