Household Recipes.

CHOCOLATE BISCUIT. - Take one
pound of powdered sugar, six and a
half ounces of dry sifted flour, one
dozen eggs, and quarter of pound
of grated chocolate. Separate the yolks
from the whites, and beat the yolks
and sugar to cream. Whsk the
whites to a stiff snow, then mix in the
flour, the yolks and sugar, and the
chocolate. Put the mixture into little
paper cases, dust over with fine pow
dered sugar, place them on baking.
sheets and bake in a moderate oven.
HICKoRY-NUT CooKIEs.-A very
simple recipe for hickory-nut cookies
is to take one pound of sugar, one. half
pound of butter, two eggs, one pint OF
hickory-nut meats chopped fine and
some -four. Cream the butter and
sugar together, add the eggs and hick-
DRY nuts, and then mix in enough flour
TO make the dough stiff enough to roll
out. Sprinkle each cooky with granu.
lated sugar and bake in moderately
quick oven. Hickory nuts can used the
same as cocoanut in icing and filling
for layer-cakes, if the meats be pounded
into paste.

A Cuban Mattress.

A woman who has been travelling in
the far South has a curious tale to tell
of her experiences in Havana. The
best hotel there" she says, =" is very
poor one to an American. When we
arrived we found that the only room
with a mattress on the bed was being
reserved for some member of the Have
meyer family. AS they had not arrived,
however, the proprietor consented that
I should occupy it. The much-vaunted
mattress was a poor one of excelsior,
and one that | would have scoffed at
at home. In Havana one may not be
too particular, as will be seen. My
first night on the mattress was dis
turbed by an occasional move ment
beneath me which l could not under
stand, and which q cursory investiga.
ton did not reveal. In the morning,
however, searched more thoroughly
and found a slit in the mattress, and on
exploring little deeper lively rat

Good Lemonade.

"I learned a new thing" said a
woman recently, "while visiting last
week an English friend who is living
in the country. We had small dance
one evening of my stay, and my hostess
served the most delicious lemonade |
ever drank. l spoke of it the next day,
and she told me that it was made with
freshly boiled water-the secret, she
said, of thoroughly good lemonade"
81 have a regular rule" she further
informed me, which insures success

For quart / take the juice of three
lemons, using the rind of one of them.
l am careful to peel the rind very thin,
getting ju~t the yellow outside; this l
cut into pieces and put with the juice
and powdered sugar, of which use two
ounces to the quart, in jug or jar with
cover. When the water is just at the
tea point, pour it over the lemon and
sugar, cover at once and let it get cold.
Try this way once, and you will never
make it any other way"

Female Borrowers,

In that millennial period when women
have attained their long sought equality
with men will it come about that the
feminine borrower can be dur ned with
out weeping, wailing, crashing of
teeth, and the total collapse or cordial
relations? AT present it is an eX-
tremely unusual woman who can bear
a reminder that she is under financial
obligation to another without feeling
insulted. You pay the car fares and
the luncheon checks for week; you
buy the concert tickets or the soda
checks; you lend the friend of your
bosom the money she needs to buy the
parasol she is afraid "will be gone
before she can come down again,
and then see the look she will bend
upon you when you suggest in your
own tactful way that you need the
money. If you should approach her
in the brutaly direct masculine style
and demand "that five l let you have
last week." probably blood would not
suffice to wipe out the insult. AS
it is, the woman who borrows tolerates
no dunning. You choose between
your friend and your fortune, and &C
about trying to persuade yourself that
she is worth the price you pay. But
she isn't and you know it, and in youl
heart you pray for the time when il
shall be numbered among the rights OF
women to demand the payment of theil
debts.

Senator Stanford and WOmankind.

Senator Stanford attested in two no.
table instances the high regard in which
he held womankird. His respect for
woman in general he recorded by Civ
ing her equal rights With men in Stan
ford University. His regard for her in
particular he showed by his will, in
which the great bulk of his fortune was
left absolutely TO his wife. A great
many people are interested, some of
them vitality, to see whether these two
important actions will work together
for good. Practically, Mr.. Stanford
boqueathed Stanford University to his
wire. II is true he left the university
about two millions and a half, but that
is far from being a large enough sum
to keep the institution running on the
scale on which it is conducted now.
Happily Mrs. Stanford's interest in it
has always been quite as lively as her
hus bands. Yet it has happened before
now that man and wife who have been
one so long as both have lived, have
turned out to be a different one after
the man has died. 1t is a fact, and a
pretty solemn fact TO the university

of its income will be subject to new in

The Burden of Shortsightedness.

ooh, dear, what world OF iucompe-
tents l find! twas the closing sentence
of letter received from woman who
devotes her life to the classes in which
incompetency abounds because of igno-
rance. The appalling thing in our
civilization is that, in spite of almost
unbounded opportunity, in spite of the
efforts of scores of associations and
organizations devoted to changing
ignorance to knowledge, incompeteucy
to equipment, there always remains
this army Of Incompetent men and
women who have no foundation on
which to build, who have failed go con
tinuously that success would be the
abnormal thing TO come into their lives.
The genesis of this is lack Of education,
and it is to be found in every grade OF
our social structure. Poverty reveals
the incompetency; wealth cOnceals it
How many of the men, but more espe
callv the women, of our so-called
wealthy classes could support them
selves if suddenly thrown on their own
resources, without influence or social
backing? Comparatively few. Aud they
are the most difficult incompetents !"
in the world to deal with when found.
| The poor are accustomed to poverty,
and there is the less that is startling,
the less that is suffering, in their eX-
periences to them. Incompetency is
due to the same cause in all cases-lack
of training. And this lack of training
is the result of unappre ciated oppor.
tunities for education that would have
changed the individuals relation to
society. If the opportunities for special
training were used by the people for
whom they exist; if parents and those
who control the destinies of children
would look beyond childhood, and see
: the value of every hour of training to
the future man and woman, the army
of iucompetents " would be reduced
to the iucapables because of physical
or mental disability. The sins of igno-
rance that cause most of the crime and
disease, that make jails, hospitals,
homes for the destitute, aud kindro d
Institutions nCce sary, would no longer
Stay their victims; crime would not be
the result of ignorance, but the result
of ability, and much easier to grapple
with. Every student of sociology, every
physician, knows that innate physical
and moral weakness is much harder to
overcome than the positive acts aud
effects of strength. Training that
recognizes the peculiar abilities of TIE
individual is the safeguard, for the
army of incompetents are misplac' d
individuals in most cases-those made
hewers of wood who should be drawer
of water; or they are the victims OF
ignorance that is so dull or so blind as tC
be unconscit us that there is future
for which the present is training

An AnecdOte of Artemus Ward.

His companions were band of bril-
liant young Bohemians for whose kind
the metropolis now contains no room.
They were the last of their kind, and
most of them lived but brief lives.
They produced much that was brilliant,
but nothing that lasted. Artemus
alone won enduring fame. The others
were writers, actors, and Ministries.
The brothers Dan and Neil Bryant
were eminent members of the clan, to-.
gether with Charles Dawson Shanly,
and shining cluster of young men
about town. One of the latter, who
lived to become staid merchant, used
to relate with glee how, on leaving the
little theater in Twenty-third street late
one evening in company with A,temus,
Shanly, and Neil Bryant, the trio broke
out in joyous carol. The song was
interrupted by one of the then despised
metropolitan policemen, who roughly
ordered them to stop their noise. AT
this interruption Artemus stopped his
song, and, turning, threw himself upon
the bread bosom of the policeman, and
gave way TO gush of passionate tears.
His friends endeavored to calm him,
and the embarrassed officer, half
choked by his warm embra e, begged
him to desist, which he did, with the
declaration that the metropolitan 20.
liceman is the noblest work of Gcd.'
This sentiment secured escape aud a
continuance of the song.-1he Century.

The National Game.

From Maine TO Texas, and from Flor
ida to Oregon, base ball is the game.
Is there a village in this broad land
that does not pin its faith to a ball club
Of some kind? There may be few,
but few indeed they are, if there be a
dozen able.bodied young men in that
village. The cities contain ubs by the
legion. On Saturday afternoon one
cannot enter any of the railroad sta.
tons or ferries without brushing up
against an army of bats and masks or
seeing baseball enthusiasm exhibited in
some of its many forms. The street
cars, too, are carrying baseball clubs
to suburban diamonds of more or less
pretensions. These wielders of the
willow will average from twelve to
thirty years of age-the children and
the men. They are going to play clubs,
possibly from an adjoining sire ct, pos
sibly from miles away. Wherever there
is contest there is rivalry, excitement,
antagonism. These qualities are more
fully seen when neighboring and rival
towns oppose each other on the dia-
mond. Then it is that portisanship is
given full play and the most intense
excitement prevails.-August Lippin-
