years he found himself again in Eng
land, 1t appeared as If he had been alb

really the case.
He had been a week in Eng
land, and was still detained
in town by details connected
with the work he had successfully ac-
complished. He was under promise to
his sister to run down to Markerslea
the first day it should be possible, and
time meanwhile hung somewhat heavily
ON his hands. The waters had already
closed over his former place in society
and he did not regret it Still there
were friends whom he was glad to meet
again, and so he not unwillingly accept

BLUE STOCKINGS.

Once upon a time particular kind
of stocking became the badge ur Ger
tain learned clique. 1t was a blue
stocking, and the society that sported
it came into existence in Venice In the
year 400. Nearly two centuries
elapsed before the craze spread, but
then a highly-infammable nation-the
French-took 1t up, and no one with
any pretent;ons to erudition rested
content without the Bas-blue Club dis
tInction. The same space of time
passed by, and the fad spread to Eng
land where blue stockings existed until
1S4o, when in the person of the
Countess OF Cork, the last scion of an
ancient coterie expired. This is how
we get the modern appellation. "Blue
stocking" usually tackled on as term
OF approbrum to some one more learned
than the generality of people, especially

THE HOT WATER FAD.

The hot water cure for dyspepsia,
indigestion and kindred ailments IS by
no means novelty, but the manner in
which it is habitually practiced at the
country home of a wealthy New York
business man is certainly out of the
ordinary. The country home afore-
said is not more than half an hours
ride bv rail from New York, and it is a
very attractive resort for the young
friends of the hospitable owner.
A few weeks ago a mem er of one
of the athletic clubs in this city, a
young giant in statue and second
Gladstone in physical health and vlgor
received a cordial invitation to spend a
few days at the country mansion. He
accepted with alacrity, and presented
himself before his host and hostess at
the appointed time, He had most
agreeable time, but in narrating his
experience to chum a few days after
his return to the city he said: 1t was
jolly visit. Everybody there was as
nice as could be, and Mr.. Ms hos
pitality is simply delicious. But there
was one thing that staggered me at the
/ soutset-that was their CT eof drink

story to give the names of the horses
their ages, weights or the names ol
their riders. All that remains to say
is that the Hon. Tommy Arden had
42oo to nothing on every horse that
started.
Needless to say, only six horses
won. With thirty of his friends
Tommy has conGoled and said
something about "the luck of the
devil" With six Of his friends,
who believe in him as prophet ever
after to be followed blindly, he has
rejoiced-more especially on the
Monday, when they each handed
him check for 4aoo, making in all
kI,2oo, with which he paid off the
broker as he had promised the
agent.
1t is due to his sagacity to say
that the Hon. Tommy Arden only
plays this game three times in each
year, Other men would be more
greedy. Tommy only makes some
$4,000; but he is contented with
this, as he has the love and respect
OF his charming wife, who is one of
prettiest and best dressed women in
town. In each year he also makes
some eighteen fast friends of the
men to whom he has given the
stright tip which has come off. The
others, Tommy consoles himself by
saving himself by saying, have as
good chance as any one else, and
they all have their turn sooner or
later.
There are few who, after two or
three experiences of Tommys straight
tips, have become slightly colder
toward him; but Tommy makes no
fuss. He pays them out by quietly
leaving them out OF the next "good
thing for the simple reason that there
are always other good men coming
on, all of whom he makes it his bus
mess to cultivate.

SAVED BY A BABY.

Just after the last passenger had
got into his berth a baby about a
year old began to cry. Certain peo.
pie always find fault with such things
and it wasn't ten minutes before an
Indignation meeting was being held.
The father of the child was a small,
red headed man, with very serious
look on his face. After a bit he felt
upon to say:
Really, ladies and gentlemen, but
it can't be helped, and l hope you
won't blame US. The child probably
has another presentment.
What do you mean by that? de-
manded the fat, baldheaded man in
lower No. 6.
Six weeks ago we were travelling
in the east. One night baby took
on just this way. Everybody jawed
and kicked, but his crying was the
means OF saving the train and 200
lives.
You don't say! How was it!
He had a presentiment at a
freight train was running on our time,
and that a collision was imminent.
He began bowling and saved the
train.
How did this bowling save it?
Why, the engineer of the ap-
preaching freight train heard him
seven miles off and sidetracked for
us | don't want to alarm ANYBODY,
but l think he's now bowling for an
open switch, a washed out culvert
or coal train, and for heaven sake
don't choke him of!

Things Connected With Its
Successful Making That
Few Know.

Wneaten DreaQ IS g. Drlncl-

jected to a high temperature it is
changed into an easily digested SUBJ
stance called dextrine. In the ordi-
nary cooking OF loaf OF bread Il
starch in the outer layers is change
into dextrine, which helps to give the
crust that peculiar, agreeable flavor.
which we call sweet. Slices of bread
undergo similar change when toast is
made. To make toast successfully one
must endeavor to convert as much as
possible of the starch into dextrine.
To do this, cut the bread one third OF
an inch thick, place the slices IN a
toaster or wire broiler, and dry slowly
either in moderate oven or by hold
ing the broiler some distance from i
fire.
The object is to give the heat tin
to penetrate to the centre of the sli
before the outside has begun to chan,
color, for if sheath be formed over
the outside. at once the moisture will
be shut in and the middle of the slice
will be prevented from becoming
sufficiently heated to change its starch,
for the temperature will not rise much
above 2I2 degrees FarenheIt until the
water IS dried out. Starch is changed
to dextrine at 4o1 degrees Fahrenheit.
Toast that is moist in the middle and
blackened on the outside is less whole
some than untoasted bread. Great care
should, therefore, be taken with the
drying. When this has been accom-
pllshed, lower the broller little nearer
to the Goals and the toast will quickly
turn a golden brown. An ideal pis@-
of toast is crisp and goldep-s-

If one would persevere with slice he
would soon learn to prefer it At all
events, that which is soft inside should
not be given to the sick. 1t is Letter
to make the toast dry d,then moisten
it, if need be, by dipping the slices
into hot water for an Instant, not soak

directly from the toaster. When this

THE DESERTED HOMES.

A well known writer has an inter
esting article in the Cosmopolitan
Magazine for June, entitled "The
Deserted Homes of New England
He says: "For the last forty years
or over, the farm population of New
England has been decreasing. Even
the valley towns IN close proxim ty
to railroads and city markets show a
depletion, and unoccupied houses
can be found along the finest of our
village streets. AS you move back
from the larger places and the rail
roads into the hills, the abandoned
homes are found on every roadway,
and many towns have lost half their
inhabitants"
The writer attributes it to several
causes, but the real cause is the con-
traction of the currency and rob-
berry. We have no patience with the
theory that it is ''because farm life
is not attractive" AS long as farm
ers can get fair prices for their pro-
ducts they will not leave the farms
or emigrate to new sectors to any
great extent.-Prog. Farmer.
Nc business is attractive that does
not pay.-ED. CAUCASIAN.

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN?

The Denver Daily News (Col,) one
of the largest and most reliable pa
pers west of the Mississippi River
says;
1.-THE United States paid off the
troops at Fort Russell, Wyo., yester-
day in gold coin, to the surprise OF
the men, for heretofore they have
been paid in currency"
What does this mean? We thought
the Government was "hard up" fol
gold doing all it could to keep from
issuing more bonds to buy more
gold. This seems to be positive
proof that the Government is into
the scheme with the gold bugs t.
make gold scarce to force an issue O.
bonds.
