Of Richard Swayne.
So Frank, finding none to help him,
helped himself In the best way he
could, fighting when there was fighting
to do, and giving a helping hand to the
ambulance squads whenever occasion
demanded his services.
Thus in FIVE days he found himself In
Springfield, where the very first person
he met was James Lawson driving a
light supply wagon.
"Hullol' that worthy cried, almost
dislocating the mules jaw in his eager

Frank was puzzled.
"Well, here Il Is, Jim" he said, hand

Of the way
Lawson watched his retreating figure
with curious expression on his face,
muttering TO himself the while
That's the best thing you've done for
yourfh this many day, Frank Besant,
thon& you don't know it."
They were all glad tosee Frank back,
especially the Colonel, who had many
kind words for the young man, whose
story he listened to with intense inter
est, while Major Hopkins called him to
his own tent and made him relate his
adventures over again, paying him sew
eral handsome compliments But the
best news Of all was that his name had
been forwarded to the Governor OF
| Ohiofor commission, and these gentle
men thought that their strong recon-
mendations would be favorably re-
! ceived.
J From Springfield the regiment went
I into winter camp at Sedalia, then the
terminus OF the Union Pacific railroad.
What the men endured during that
/ severe winter under canvas no pen
could describe. The weather was ex-
ceptionally inclement, and many gal

blow for the Union, was either invalided
home with a broken constitution or died
outright Of exposure. It was indeed a
case Of the survival Of the fittest-
those who were hardy enough to strug-
| gle through it all gave Uncle Sam sufi-
cient assurance that his bounty money
had been well laid out.
In the midst of this discomfort they
were turned out several times TO take
part in slight engagements, while they
celebrated Christmas by capturing Q
gigantic supply train on its way tc
Price, together with five hundred pris
oners, and, what was Of more conse
quence to many Of them, '.lots Of loot.

OLD-TIME PUMPKIN PIE.
The Proper Way to Make the Genuine Ar
ticle.

ticle.
1t is rarity to find a pumplsin-pie
nowadays properly made and baked as
1t used to be before people were too
much in hurry to do things as they
should be done. 1t is difficult to find
any semblance between the flavorless
or over-spiced pies now prepared from
pumpkin and the delicious old-time pie.
The trouble begins with preparing the
pumpkin, which is usually boiled up
quickly in abundance of water in such
manner as to take all flavor from it,
There is but one way to cook pumpkin
properly. Cnt it into long strips, re-
move the seeds and inside pulp and pare
these strips. Put them into a porce-
lain-lined iron saucepan, if you have
one, or any thick saucepan, in about
two inches depth of boiling water A
four-quart saucepan filed with sliced
pumpkin will require less than quart
of water Cover the saucepan, and the
moment the water begins to boil set it
back where its contents will merely
simmer, being careful that it is covered
all the time and that the water does not
boil away fast enough to require that
more should be added. After the pump
kin has slowly cooked in this steam for
six hours, it will be soft and tender; all
the water will be absorbed and it will
be an entirely different vegetable from
the same thing boiled half an hour or
so in abundance of water.
A well-made pumpkin pie is much
better than squash pie, frequen
makeshift for it even in New England.
After cooking pumpkin properly it is
not necessary to wiring it in a cloth,
thus extracting all its flavor and leav-
ing dry pulp behind. 1t should be
simply mashed and strained through
the colander. Measure out two cups of
this strained pumpkin, add four cups of
sweet milk, half teaspoonful of salt,
two teaspoonfuls of ginger, one of
mace, an even teaspoonful of cinnamon
and little nutmeg. Beat up five eggs
with about three-quarters of cup of
sugar and beat them into the other III
gradients. Add, last of all, cup of
cream and taste the custard to see if it
is sweet enough, Line rather deep
earthern pie plates with plain paste,
brushing it over with the white of an
egg. Put around each pie rim of puff
paste, if you wish, and fill it with the
prepared pumpkin. Bake the pies
rather slowly till solid in the center in
an oven well heated at the bottom

ease of bone fellon on the thumb con-

operation was a pronounced success and
perfect cure was soon effected-N. Y.
