Some Savory Dishes For the Table Pre-
 pared With Chicken.
 All housewives claim to a knowledge of how chickens should be broiled, boiled and roasted, but there are numberless secrets concerning these everyday pro cesses that greatly affect the results. For instance: In nine cases out of ten, broiled chickens, and indeed brOiled birds, are rendered more acceptable when these have been steamed for few min utes just previous to placing on the broiler. This steaming insures against any tough tendons or rawness next to the bone. Then again a roasted fowl is always moro juicy and rich for having thin slices of bacon pinned or tied around it. Following are some recipes from Good Housekeeping not generally known:
 A chicken pie in favor at the south is prepared by first boiling the fowl tender Then put a layer of seasoned chicken in a dish with plenty of butter. then a lay CT of cold. boiled rice. Repeat till dish is full, with rice on top. Set in oven till very hot, then serve.
 To make a chicken pie with oysters. line a dish with rich crust, put layer of boiled chicken, then raw oysters, sea- soning each, and adding bits of butter, tillup with heated oyster liquor, skinned and mixed with white chicken stock. Cover with crust and bake.
 Here is a French recipe: Tie thin bacon over the breast. Put in pan with small carrot, a small onion stuck with cloves, a sprig of parsley. Half cover with hot water or stock. Cover the pan and simmer 10 minutes. Remove fowl, haste with butter, dredge with flour and brown in tie oven. Serve with sauce made from pot liquor.
 A dish known in some sections as chicken h royale is prepared with a boiled fowl, which is cut up. seasoned. rolled in flour and fried brown in but ter. Serve with sauce of tablespoon fuls of braided flour. 3 cupfuls of chicken stock, half bay leaf, a teaspOonful each of celery salt and chopped parsley. Boil 20 minutes. Strain and add 6 chopped mushrooms. Cook 10 minutes Add the yolks of two raw eggs and the juice of a half of a lemon.

 "The mistake of my life, stranger. Back thar In Iowa l could hear the church bells a-ringin every Sunday mornin fur church, while out here the highest church is 'leven miles away"

Here hev nuthin but prairie land, with skeerce- ly a tree in sight, and cussin don't do me a mite O good. It makes me homesiak every time try it."
 But perhaps things will improve"
 "Mebbe so, but l doul,t it. Back thar every stranger who cum along was willin to peel of his coat and try to lick me, but out here can't git up no row with nobody.

A PHOTOGRAPHERS 0oNTs.

Don't practice expression and so succeed in disguising yourself.
 Don't bring a friend along to pose you. Trust to professional rather than amateur skill.
 Don't, if you are an amateur, try to in. struct an artist of 30 years experience how to make a successful photograph.
 Don't grow angry if you cannot break the business rules of the studio because they do not happen to meet with your ap- proval.
 Don't tell baby that birds and monkeys will jump out of the side of the gallery to amuse him. His disappointment will make him cross.
 Don't bring the entire family along to keep the child in good humor. The artist can do that much more easily, and the baby Is less likely to become nervous
 Don't tell the photographer that you are the worst subject in the world to photo graph, and never had successful picture. It is suited remark resulting from spe- cies of egotism, which simply means that no camera has ever yet succeeded in pro- ducing the beauties that yous in yourself. Philadelphia Times.

when we went over to Big Canyon to get Colonel Davis to renew his subscription to TIE KICKER. It appears that the artist ran across the colonel and received direc- tions, and about three hours later, while the colonel was looking down into Grassy valley from a point on the mountain, he saw queer sight. A big cinnamon bear had come out of ravine, and the artist was calling to him, probably supposing the animal to be a stray dog or some living relic of the lost Aztec race
 Out in this country you don't want to call anything you don't want to chum with. and had we met the artist we should have cautioned him to that effect. He whistled and called and patted his leg, and the bear came. He came on the dead run and fully prepared for business. Colonel Davis thought the artist had a surprised look on his face as the cinnamon got with In about 10 feet of him, but the distance was too great to be sure of it. There was a collision, cloud of dust and brushes, and when the atmosphere cleared away there was bear walking around with q self satisfied air, but no artist. The colonel is willing to bet 10 to that the bear came out on top. If the artist has any friends, We are willing to do all we can in the premises, but are of the opinion that he will never be heard of again. We feel it our duty to state that there are no stray dogs in this territory, and that the man who is looking for living relics of the lost race won't have to look very long before he will be run down by drove of mules or overloaded by something with claws on it's feet.

 AN UNFORTUNATE MISTAKE. - About three weeks ago an artist from the east struck this town and made inquiries of several of our citizens as to where he could find some grand scenery to put on canvas. We didn't happen to be home that day, or we should have asked him a few questions. He was told that he could find waterfalls, precipices and canyons in plenty over at Bill Williams mountains, and he hired mule of Dan Rodgers and ambled off in that direction. The mule returned next day, looking as if he had been out to a Fourth of July celebration. but the artist was not heard of until last Wednesday,
