A NEW LUNCHEON DISH.
Recipe From the Orient to Take the PlRc,
of dxyI


m of Sandwiches.
One OF the dainticst OF innovations in
the way Of a luncheon dish comes from
Constantinople. A young woman just
returned from foreign tour including
several months in Turkey, gives the fol-
lowing recipe which is intended to take
the place of the time-honored bread
and sandwich. 1t really forms the most
important dish of the lunch there, and
is one course. This is the way to pro-
pare it:
Trim a loaf of bread of every particle
of crust; cut it into three equal parts.
These three pieces cut IN two parts,
make six pieces of bread about two and
one-half inches by five.
Then with sharp, thin knife, cut the
inner portion OF the bread out in the
shape of an oblong square, leaving only
thin shell or basket, as it is termed
Into this basket put a layer of nicely
prepared chicken or other salad, as pre-
ferred, and then fit carefully back the
cut-out pieces of bread.
Have ready pot of boiling lard, into
which put tenderly one by one these
little baskets; let them brown to q
nicely; lift them out with wire ladle,
and drain over sieve Then tie
daintily with a ribbon. Serve to be
eaten with fork. With the customary
olive, this is the piece de resistance for
swell lunch or five o'clock tea in the
city of the sultan.-N. Y. Herald.

If You happen TO have by you any
old-fashioped real lace wells, you will
find that they ca q be turned to account
admirably in this way: The pleated
frill of the material indicates Il change
in fashion which wise women should do
their best to avert-uane1v: a DISPOSE
ton for cuffs, etc, to fall over the hand
as they used to do in the middle ages
A clever Frenchwoman, who wa show
ing me some sleeves in this style, point
ed out that nobody need object to them,
because there was always the option of
turning them back They are much
worn on tea gowns, which are thus over
long or else end at the elbow, the elbow
sleeves being occasionally supplement-
ed by long pendants one from the
shoulders. -.4
! am going to describe to you one OF
the most beautiful dresses OF the tea-
gown order | have ever seen. 1t was
made Of satin, gold-color shot with
pink, and the only trimming used was
some rich lace, headed by bands of
mother-of-pearl, which seemed to reflect
the different shades in the material.
The sleeves were made high, ending al
the elbow with long pointed lace ruf
hes, and distinct Vatican train came
from the top of the high. bodice and
was almost entirely covered with lace.
If you have by you n store either OF
black or white lace, which so many
women have, you might advisedly
transform some old gown in this way
In furnishing up a halt-worn-out
gown, the fashionable black trimming
will be found to be of great aid.i Black
moire or black satin, or even black vel
vet, can, be used on almost any color
and moire is going to be favorite ma
terial throughout the winter.
For driving in the country, for slip
ping on at tennis parties when the
weather turns chilly, and for the sea-
side, it seems to me that the Russian
jacket. has no rival 1t is generally
made of fine serge or a light cloth. 1t
comes almost to the knee, has belt
round the waist and a. band round the
neck, the sleeves being gathered into
bands also at the wrist and it is gener-
ally trimmed with straight-edgcd
gallon, in which, red, blue, and gold APP
pear A clever tailor has recently in
vented an easy plan by which the
whele-back jackets can be drawn into
the waist at the back. A couple of
loops are placed in the side-seams un-
der the arm, and an easily detachable
belt hooks into these, drawing in the
fullness in the Russian style, but, when
removed, the loops are almost invisible.
One of the newest hat-trimmings for
adults is large bow of stiff, natural
leaf, dyed-somc say it is palm and 9th
ers the leaf of the tobacco plR:t, At
all events it will stand the wear and
tear of weather and is decidedly orns-
mental. .-Cassetts Family Magazine.

we're yet eighteen hour! before the
limit of time should expire, aud we
felt safe. | put tho best riler famoug
our ncighbor boys on our fastest saddle
horse, and started him off to get Par
son Baker, requesting him on no ac-
count to fail to be at our farm by eleven
o'clock the next day.5 The young man
started about six o'clocl1 in the even
ing. in a heavy rain, and made the
preachers about eleven o'clock that
night The preacher told him to re-
main until next morning TO fest his
horse, while Baker saddlcd his own
and was;away by one o'clock in the
morning, simply telling his aged wife
that he was called to his circuit on i'm
portant business.
mot five miles from home the plucky
preacher. found his road barred BY a
washed out bridge. and he was obliged
to make a long detour-eIeven miles
to get back to his road beyond the gap.
From there on he was singularly un,
fortunate. His horse picked up stone
and went lame, and halts at three OF
four farms were made before he got
another. by this time it was eight
O'Clock and he was yet fourteen very
muddy miles from our house, and
rain falling in sheets. Many an old
man OF seventy years would have
given over his pursuit of an uncer-
tainty, for he didn't know what was
the matter. But never stopped to
think what the business was, he said
afterward; i simply knew that was
to get there = the Lord willingly
eleven o'clock AT 1850. the grand ole
fellow was within mile of the house
he had come to what hesthought was
an ovcrfowed bridge across "a little
brook cmptying into the Scioto river
at his left, but he had no idea that the
bridge itself was gone, for he had
crossed several such places on his
road. He urged his horse forward
and plump into twelve feet of water
they went between the abntments.
The horse was game, as well as his
master, and d;swam to the fenced side oi
the road, where he got his footing the
water being there about three feet
deep. The parson threw the bride
over fence rail and left his painting
and exhausted steed, taking across the
fields to the house, and saving mile
thereby. The lawyer saw him coming
and met him in the middle of that
meadow before us. He explained the
business in twenty words.
Have they got the liccnse?' was hi:

Popular Mistake as to screwdrivers,

1t is sometimes supposed by persons
imperfectly informed in mechanics that
long screwdrivcr gives greater clever
age" that short one. This, however,
is incorrect. The action of ascrewdriver
the pressure on which is direct, is not
in any way analogous to that of lever.
The superiority of q long screwdriver
rests simply on two facts: first, you can
generally get better grip of long
screwdriver than of short one and can
bring the whole weight OF the body
and strength of the arms to bear on it;
and second, the torsion OF the iron in a
long screw driver comes in to supple
ment the force employed. The only
way in which leverage can come in is
in connection with the breadth of the
point Of the screwdriver, and even this
counts for nothing beyond the breadth
of the head of the screw.-Brooklyn

Effects Of Heat.
Summer Vacations and Nerve
Tonics Contraseed.

The expense as we'll as the impossi-
bility Of leaving ones business makes
it entirely out of the question for many
people to take vacation however bad
they may need it. In all cases, where
person can afford it. a vacation is
probably preferable to tonics; but for
the tens of thousands who can take no
rest the brain and nerve tonic of mod
ern medical science is an indispensable
safeguard.
Nothing that is known to the medi-
cal profession of today is the equal of
Pe-ru-na in the cure or prevention of
all arrangements due to hot weather.
Pe-ru-na gives new vigor to the tired
brain, strength and quiet to the weak
ened nerves, and AS nearly supplies the
need of a vacation to the overworked
man or woman as it is possible for any
remedy to do. Pe-ru-na is reliable
specific for nervous prostration. nerve
exhaustion, sleeplessness and chronic
malaria.

| suppose there are very few per-
sons who are familiar with the COM
pilations of statistics who have not
reached condition OF very profound
distrust OF the deductions which NAV
be drawn from great averages covering
very wide areas and very different
conditions. even in respect to the same
product, says a writer in the Engi-
neering Magazine. The trained and
permanent employees in a continuous
bureau would qualify the great aver
ages by comparing them year by year
with typical establishments and by
ascertaining the relative conditions of
different parts of the country wherein
the same branch Of industry may be
undertaken. To illustrate, there is
one cotton factory in New England
which has been operated for more
than fifty years upon the same fabric,
working the same grade of cotton,
under the same conditions except so
far as those conditions have been
changed year by year in the progress
OF discovery and invention. That cor
poration has never failed, has rarely,
if ever reduced its product has been
continuously profitable, and may
therefore be taken as typical estab-
lishment working on the standard
grade of goods.
From the books of that concern it
is proved conclusively that in the
course OF fifty years 1t has been neces-
sary to change the entire machinery
of the factory. even though it might
not have worn out two to four times
according to its kind; second. there ia
but part of the outer walls left and
one or two floors of the original build
ing; third the whole motive power
has changed: fourth the average ca
pacity Of each operative in the fac
tory has beer increased in productive
power from 5. 900 yards per year pro-
duced in thirteen to fourteen hours
to 80, 900 yards per year produced in
ten hours per day.
The earnings of those who now
work in that factory ten hours are
nearly twice as much per day as the
earnings of those who worked on the
lesser product thirteen hours each day
under the former conditions. and are
more than double per hour, while the
price Of the cloth on the same cost OF
cotton is very much less to the con-
sumer now than it wasthen. By that
simple typical standard the PROCESS OF
that branch of textile manufacture
may be measured more accurately
than by any possible compilations Of
figures covering the whole country,
however correctly they may be aver.

COMMUNICATED,
Editor COURIEB-DEMOCRAT:

1-N'oi AoSINlEb-
The Ward County Reporter,of Nlinot
N. d., published last week what might
very properly be called a "fake.'' n
paper was issued on a day different
from its regular issue for circulation
among the eastern victims Of E. Ash
ley Mears. designed to counterfeit the
effect Of the articles in the Bottineau
Pioneer during the past year, rejecting
on the methods of the financial system
adopted by Mears and exposing the
practices by which he has enriched
himself at the expense of his deluded
victims everywhere.
An article entitled "Our Banks"
written presumably by the editor but
which bore the evidences of the handi-
work Of E. Ashley Mears, and which,
it would seem, was not intended for
readers Of North Dakota papers, at
tempts to cast doubts upon the state
made by the Pioneer, besides attacking
the status of their author in the COM
munity, aud the motives animating the
editor in their publication. Of these
insinuations, no notice is taken at this
time but Of the statements so charged
to be exaggerated and false, the writer
stands ready at any time to establish
their truthfulness, now reiterating and
reasserting anything ever said by him
concerning E. Ashley Mears and chal-
longing him to the proof thereof, con-
tenting himself in the meantime with
the fact that the person chosen by the
eastern stockholders at their meeting
in Hartford, Conn.,, in May last, to in
vestigate E. Ashley, has reported in a
published circular the result of his i'll
vestigations, which were very thorough,
aed which in very many respects fully
corroberated and confirmed the state
ments referred to as published by the
Bottineau Pioneer.
In the article published in the fake
edition of the Ward County Reporter,
it is to be observed that one of the gen.
tlemen from the east, named as having
made an examination, which showed
'our banks'' as being Tin excellent
shape and their securities of the BEST"
is the very one who in his recent report
to eastern stockholders says that" these
banks do not command the confidence
of the communities in which they are
located" and instances practices and
methods of banking ane money dealing
which in some parts of the country
would merit and their perpetrators
would receive only "a short shift, a
stout rope and grave without coffin
or winding Sheet
Considerable solicitude is manifested
by the writer Of ''Our Banks" article,
concerning the injury done the bank
ing interests Of North Dakota: ard this
too in the face Of the fact that thou
sands of settlers have been driven from
the state by the heartless acts of this
Prince of Shylocks: when too as every
reputable banker in the state as well
as in Minnesota and the East knows Of
his having been denounced both pub
licly and privately. OH account Of his
dishonorable methods and because of
which he was excluded from member
ship in the Natl. Bankers Assn.
There is much more that might be
said about Mears and his crooked fnan-
cial methods but it is perhaps now suf-
fcient to call attention to the means by
