cooking with macaroni or rice is made
in the following way; Wash and cut

two large carrots, and two onions of
medium size. Put over slow fire in n
saucepan with small stick of thin Gin
namon, teaspoonful of whole cloves,

cry, cleaned and sliced, using the stalk,
leaves and root, and small teaspoon
full of salt. Cook slowly until the veg
etables are soft, then press through a
sieve with potato masher. Boil the
pulp again until it is as thick as jelly.
Test by cooling little upon plate.
During the second boiling stir frequent

earthen plates about half an inch thick.
Dry thoroughly in place where there
is no dust. Break or cut into pieces
and pack in wooden boxes with clean

"WAS NOT ARRAYED."
What the Choir Said About Solomon In
All His Glory.

All Ills GLORY.
All our readers are familiar with the
old story of the sailor who explained to
his messmate what an anthem was like,
by ringing the changes on the words:
Give me handspike, Bill" This idea
has been more artistically worked up,
as follows: "The following musical in
cident is related by one who recently
attended a fashionable church. The
choir started with reference to the
lilies of the field, and, after ringing the
changes on the word consider until all
idea of its connection was lost they be-
gan to tell the congregation, through
the mouth of the soprano, that Solo
mon in all his glory was not arrayed )
Straightway the soprano was re-en-
forced by the basso, who declared that
Solomon was most decidedly and en-
phatically not arrayed-was not ar
rayed. Then the alto ventured it as her
opinion that Solomon was not arrayed,
when the tenor, without moments
hesitation, sang as if it had been otfici-
ally announced that he was not ar
rayed-
'"Then, when the feelings of the con-
gregation had been narrowed up
sufficiently, and our sympathies all
aroused for poor Solomon, the choir at
| length, in most cool and composed
manner informed us that the idea they
intended to convey was that Solomon
in his glory was not arrayed like one
| of these
"These what? So long a time had
elapsed since they sang of the lilies
that the thread was entirely lost, and
by these one naturally concluded that
the choir was designated. Arrayed like
one of these? We should think not, in
deed! Solomon in a Prince Albert or q
cutaway coat? No, most decidedly no
Solomon in the very zenith of his glory
was not arrayed like one of these

defying cold blasts. The sleeves are
high and full, and there are deep, capa-

ordinary wear. A more elaborate seal
coat is in sack shape, with full sleeves
drawn into deep gauntlet cuff at the
wrist, and with Vatican plait in the
back, so arranged as to be removed, If

BILE and musk will be largely used for
trimmings; Astrachan and Persian lamb
will retain their hold on popular favor.
Sea otter, blue fox and skunk will also
be used. A smart evening cloak is of
turquoise blue cloth with double line
of marten arranged to form trimming
all round the hem of the cloak and
down the front, so as to take the shape
of deep cape round the shoulders.
Lined with blue and silver brocade this
is charming and effective cloak. The

sable, just long enough to go once

with seal is likely to be the exquisite

Cheap Theaters.

The bane of the American drama is
the cheap theater; and if my protest
can be heard, and, being heard, be
deemed rightful protest, all men will
stay away from it, henceforth forever.
1t counts for nothing that you can sit
downstairs for fifty cents. One would
rather eat a delicious dinner in a
kitchen than masticate a vile mixture
in palace. Therefore it is better to
sit upstairs and see an actor attempt
good things than sit downstairs and see
him succeed in doing bad. The success
of the cheap theater means the extinc-
tion of the. gallery patronage. They
are nearly gone now, those faces all
aglow, those shirt-sleeved arms, those
thunderous bursts of rapturous ap.
plause and the familiar, earnest word
of encouragement; who so quick to
recognize the actors finest points, who
SO quick to laugh, so quick to weep, and
who first spread the news of some great
moment in an actors life? They are
gone now, those honest faces; we look
for them in vain. The practical loss
lies in the fact that in these days of
heavy ex ,Jenses the actor manager must
find his house all over full if he is to
earn a proft-Richard Mansfield, in
| North American Review.

"Of course, do not suppose" said
veteran houseEeeper, ''that anyone

health, and their eating is perpetual

her market bills were quite enough to

1T is amazing she said, "what an
amount of food we bring into the
house, and, as q matter of necessity, I
the worst of it is don't see any way to
help it, We are all of us very capricious
feeders; we get ideas in our heads that
we want certain thing and we want
it very badly. Of course we get it,
take two or three tastes out of it, and
that's the end of it. It's impossible to
buy good meats in very small quanti-
ties, and as a consequence we must
either eat inferior qualities, which we
are of course unwilling to do, or waste
about half of the purchase. In a really
first-class steak there is sometimes more
than half which is not available, and
this must be thrown away Our bread
is about the same way, and, really, it's
a problem to know just what to do
"An economical friend of mine buys
half dozen pounds of good meat,
roasts it down in a pot, cuts it into
pieces Of suitable size and cans it just
as we do fruit and vegetables. Her
family seems to relish it; but we have
tried it, and the plan Is failure. try
