summoned Abraham and Ieproacbed
him for his untruth Gin saying that
Sarah was his sister Abraham prayed
for the King, and Allah healed the
King, who now gave Abraham rich
presents, and among others an Egyp-
tian slave named Hagar. She bore him
q son, whom he called Ishmael. But
Sarah became jealous, sinca the
light of Mohammed shone on
IshmaePs forehead. She demanded
of Abraham to put away Hagar and her
sou. He was undecided until COM
manded by Allah to obey Sarah in all
things. Yet he entreated her not to
cast of her bondmaid and her son.

SUGGESTIONS FOR PRACTICAL COOKS

VANILLA CARAMELs.-Boil together
one pound of sugar, one gill OF cream,
one ounce Of honey, quarter OF tea
spoonful of butter, and half gill OF
hot water till, when dropped into cold
water, il crackles, then stir into tea
spoonful of essence of vanilla, and pour
! il out into a butter dish to cool. Just
before it sets. cut il across into little
squares.
CHOCOLATE CARAMELs.- Put into q
pan cuDful each Of mOlasses, brown
sugar and milk, with about two ounces
OF butter. Bring this just to boil,
then add teas poonful Of pure glycer-
inc. and let 1t boil very fast. When
almost cooked stir into cuptul OF
grated chocolate, then test 1t by drop
ping a snail quantity into cold water;
If it "balls" stifiy on touching the cold
water it is done, then pour into butter
ed pans, make it into oblongs or squares
with the back Of the knife while cool
ing, and leave it till set.
SCoILoP OYSTERS. The dish in
which YOU cook them must be well but
tered, then sprinkle layer OF pounded
crackers at the bottom, then layer
OF oysters well seasoned with salt and
pepper, and lay bits of butter about over
the oysters, then another layer OF
cracker crumbs, then oysters, and so
on till the dish Is full. The top layer
should DO OF cracker crumbs. Bake in
the lower part Of your stove until well
Drowned on top. The oysters should
be drained of every particle of liquor,
10 fact, should be wiped dry on clean
towel before putting them in the dish.
A PERsILLADE.-Lean cold roast

She does not make so many rlpples on

is no living without her. She is the

She is not noted for anything in par

Nevada's Native Flax.

Although the fact appears to b.

in appearance as the cultivated va
riety. The wild flax, however, is a
perennial plant, the root sending up
new stocks every spring. whereas the
common fax is an annual and re-
quires the sowing of new seed each
season. The ordinary fax cultivated
in Europe and America is a native of
Egypt and some parts of Asia. 1t
does not seem to be known to our
scientists in the Atlantic States that
the same plant, except that it is a
perennial, is indigenous to the Great
Basin region of the Pacific Coast,

about three feet. Before the whites
came to the country the Indians

in making nets for catching fish and

REPORTERS RIGHTS.

The news from Washington that
the Grand Jury of the District of
Columbia is about to indict the
two newspaper correspondents who
brought on the sugar-trust investiga-
ton, says the Post, will be received
with interest throughout the country.
The making of square issue, which
involves the privileges of journalist
to maintain the confidence of his in
formants, will do much to set at rest
the time honored conflict between
the men Of that profession and those
who seek, in the interest Of public
corruption, to destroy the right. The
two correspondents in question pub
lished certain information concerning
the corrupting influence of the sugar
trust In tariff legislation. When
called on for the names of their in
formants, they refused to give them.
For this the Senate Committee has
asked for their indictment.
The fact that these correspondents
as subsequently ascertained, told the
the truth concerning the machina-
tons of the sugar trust in Washing
ton does not seem to have struck
either the Senate Committee or the
District Grand Jury as a good reason
for disseminating the prosecution
against them. Their duty as public
servants required them, being in pos
session of the information in ques-
ton, to publish it. Had thoy not
done SO they would have betrayed
their employers. But all this seems
to have escaped the observation of
their prosecutors. The object is to
make them divulge the names of
their informants in order that the
Doodle legislators and lobbyists may
wreak summary vengeance upon
them.
