Cooked Cucumbers.

Cucumbers are seldom used except
raw. and yet they are both delicious and
digestible when cooked. The peel should
be removed and the cucumbers should
be boiled until tender, then drained and
sliced, and simmered in good brown
gravy. to which a very little Chill vim
egar has been added, for seven or eight
minutes. Radishes, like cucumbers, can
be served hot as well as in salads. They
should be tied In punches and boiled for
eighteen or twenty minutes. then placed
on toast and covered with white sauce.
Peas. French beans. and sprouts are
greatly improved by being tossed for O
few minutes previous to sending to table
In saucepan containing a lump Of fresh
butter, tablespoonful of cream, a pinch
Of castor sugar. and seasoning Of pep
per and salt. A rather more simple. way
of treating French beans Is a la Fran
caise: they are put into a pan with q
piece OF butter. the Juice OF half lemon
and little pepper and salt.

A New strawberry shortcnke.

Adirondack strawberry shortcake
makes tempting supper dish. It re-
quires three pints Of Strawberries, one
cupful of sugar. one quart of sour milk,
one quart Of flour, two eggs, four table,
spoonfuls of melted butter, two table,
spoonfuls OF soda and one teaspoonful
of salt.
In the morning pour the sour milk
on the flour and beat thoroughly. Let
the mixture stand in a warm place un-
til evening, then dissolve the soda in
one tablespoonful of cold water and add
1t to the batter, together with the salt
and the eggs well beaten. Fry this
batter on a griddle like common griddle
cakes, but have each cake the size Of
a tea plate. Butter the cakes as they
come frcm the griddle and spread each
with thin layer of crushed straw
berries. Sprinkle lightly with sugar.
There should be three griddle cakes
and three layers of berries for each
plate, and the shortcake should be
served hot. A dish of whipped cream
Is a pleasant addition.

will tax the advantage which the holding OF such

it was rare thing for woman to

And now Well, they simply walk

them. They are women of refinement
and good breeding; women the world
calls ladies. The cause? The worlds

They visited those places, and what
did they see? At every turn native
women smoking cigarettes, handling

The Novel and Profitable Investment of a
Firm of Bankers.
A well-known firm of bankers in
London have just made profitable in
vestment According to the London
Telegraph some time ago man who
had defrauded them of large sum of
money was taken into custody, convict
ed and sentenced to long term of
penal servitude Prison fare did not
agree with one who had lived on the
fat of the land. The change affected
him in many ways, but he complained
more particularly of the injury the
food caused to his teeth. They were
neither numerous nor in good condi-
tion when he was sentenced, and, as
they rapidly became worse. he applied
to the governor of the prison for new
set. Being told that the government
did not supply prisoners with artificial
teeth, at the first opportunity he wrote
the banking firm in question, offer
ing if they would send him new set
to tell them something to their ad-
vantage. Thereupon the bankers,
thinking the offer might be genuine
one, sent the governor of the prison a
check for five pounds and asked him to
provide the convict with set of arti-
fetal teeth. In due course the convict
kept his promise and sent the bankers
certain information by means of which
they We're enabled to recover no less
than fifteen hundred pounds of which
they had been defrauded.

DIAMOND MoLEcuLgs.

The Gem ts Said to he . Mass Of Very
Lively Atoms.
Sir R. Ball, who is fond of revealing
the marvellous, has been studying the
mysterious action of molecules; and
what he has to say concerning the
movements of the molecules Of a dia-
mond is as truly surprising as anything
he has told MS about the sun and the
planets. Every body is composed of a
multitude of extremely, but not inii-
nitely, small molecules, and it might
be thought, says Sir Robert according
to contributor in the Newcastle Eng
land Chronicle), that in solid, at all
events, the little particles must be clus-
tered together in a compact mass. But
the truth is far more wonderful. Were
the sensibility of our eyes increased so
as to make them few million times
more powerful, it would be seen that
the diamond atoms, which form the
perfect gem when aggregated in suffi-
cient myriads, are each in a condition
of rapid movement of the most COM
plex description.
Each 'molecule would be seen swing
ing to and fro with the utmost violence

quivering from the shocks it receives
from encounters with other molecules,
which occur millions of times in each
second. The hardness and impenetra-
bility so characteristic would at first
sight seem to refute the supposition
that it is no more than a cluster of
rapidly moving PARTICLES; but the we'll
known impenetrability of the gem
arises from the fact that, when attempt
is made to press steel point into the
stone, it fails, because the rapidly NOV
ing molecules of the stone batter the
metal with such extraor dinary vehe-
mence that they refuse to allow it to pen
citrate or even to mark the crystallized
surface. When glass is cut with dia-
mond the edge which seems so hard is
really composed of rapidly moving
atoms. The glass which is cut is also
merely mass of moving molecules and
what seems to happen is that as the
diamond is pressed forward it's several
particles, by their superior vigor, drive
the little particles of glass out of the

The American Way of Eating Them YER
sus the German.
Several of the male members of the
opera company sat at the same table in
the Ste. Claire hotel. Another gentle
man was given a. seat at the same
table. 1t seems that at dinner one day
he ordered Saratoga chip potatoes and
when they were served he began eat
ing them with his fingers. The others
looked on in amazement and soon be-
gan talking in German about the inn
propriety of the action. They applied
number of pet names to him, princi-
cipal among which was the American
hog. One of them thought the thinly
sliced potatoes looked good, SO he or
dered some and when they came pro-
ceeded to- tackle them with his fork.
He made about as good job of it as
he would had he tried to eat his soup
with the same implement, but by this
time the supposedly ill-bred American
had finished, and after watching with
amusement the antics of the other,
who had to do considerable juggling to
land the potato in his mouth, arose and
in leaving said in very good German:
Pardon me, gentlemen, but if you will
eat those potatoes with your fingers, as
the Americans do, you will find it much
easier"
Bowling politely, he departed, leav-
ing the Germans dumfounded.

HOW TO RUN FAR AND FAST.
Keep the Knees Bent, Lean Forward and
Lift the Feet Very Slightly.

Keep the Knees Bent, Lean Forward and
Lift the Feet Very slightly.
Psychologists and lovers of athletics
may be interested in recent expert.
ments and researches of French
artillery captain, M. de Raoul, who,
some fifteen years ago, began to try
and find out the most economical and
least trying way of walking. There
are many manners of walking, says
the Popular Science News. some of
which are much devoid of grace, but
it may be supposed that as far as eff
cheney is concerned one must be better
than the others. M. de Raoul has
come to the conclusion that, as far as
fast walking is concerned, the best
method is that which he calls marche
enfiexion. The principle is to run
without leaping, to raise the body
above ground as little as possible, to
keep the knees bent, the upper part of
the body inclined forward, SO that
practically you are always running
after your center of gravity. The feet
must be raised only very slightly. M.
de Raoul, who has now some years of
experience says that he can now take
any man between twenty and sixty
and teach him to run as long as his
legs can carry him without getting
out of breath. Some men can, on the
very first trial of the method, run seven
or eight miles without stopping, while,
with the ordinary tactics, they could
not have run over one mile. The first
kilometer "a kilometer is tive-eighths
of n mile) is usually covered in seven
minutes and quarter, the second in
six minutes, and the third in five min
utes and fortyfive seconds. An inter-
esting feature of M. de Raoul's re-
searches is that even after long run,
according to his method, stiff walk is
no trouble at all; the muscles which
work in both cases do not belong to
the same set and while one exercise is
performed the muscles which minister
to the other rest
