vichs Helen?"-a picture then on view in
London, much favored by lovers because of
the darkness of the room in which it was ex-
hibited.
'Not yet; have you?"
'I? How could I? I have no one to take
me. My husband is away all day. and even
if he wasn't he has no taste for art.
MAY take you?"
IF you do not think-perhaps it wouldn't
be quite proper"
''Oh, we might take Miss Bell, suggested
Fred, considerably. 1T would be worth
dozen painting lessons to her..
''What! To see 'Helen?' The subject is
hardly one to explain to young girl, Mrs.
Vernon answered, severely.
Fred, though knowing that this silly little
soul had no notion of HeleniZing with HIM
self or any other Menelaus, could hardly re-
strain a smile at the Lucrecian severity of her
tone. Suddenly a really brilliant idea struck
him.
Il tell you what" he cried, with excited
eagerness, ''you might lunch with me at the
Epicurean restaurant-not a stones throw
from the gallery and we could see the picture
together aiterward."
'But-but-wouldn'ti it look odd?" faitered
Mrs. Vernon, longing and dreading to snatch
this fearful Joy.
'Odd? No. Why? It's almost more la
dies restaurant than gentlemen's.n
Oh! here's Mr. Vermont she cried, with ap-
propriate agitation.

There was but one glass in which Mrs. Yer

could see herself growing old-her daughter.
Bell would grow up, an unnlial forwardness
which her mother resented bitterly, and she
would grow up pretty, an objectionable ag-
grayaiion Of her ofense. For, In the first
place. she was 100 winsome to remain long
unmarried. and her marriage meant to Mrs.
NerEcn only her own superannuation. To be
made at her age a mother-in-law and pres
emily a grandmother!
The thought was insupportable. But, in
tie second place. Bells exceeding beauty al

Vernon considered her exclusive due. Where

But the TrifIes are Important 10 the Care
full Housewife.
Here are few OF the added touches that
make the difference between commonplace
and ideal housekeeping:
When you have strained your plain boiled
potatoes take them at once to the open door
or window and give them a vigorous shaking
in the draught. They will become white and
mealy. Try it once and you will do it always,
so great is the Improvement.
Every good housekeeper browns and rolls
or CRATES her stale bread. thus having it in
readiness for scallops or frying meats, fish,
croquettes. If, after being rolled, it is put
through the -four sieve the additional fine
ness will amply repay the trouble.
I sat one morning in the bright, clean
kitchen of lumber camp watching the cook
make bread. After kneading the bread he
took enough for a loaf and drew it out again
and again, rolling it up each time as he
would puff paste. Then he set it aside to
rise, repeating the process before putting it
in the pans. This, he said, was the secret of
white and faky bread.

Guilty Of Forgery,
A RECOMMENDATION TO MERCY.

The Jury stood Seven for Conviction on

nous Verdict Reached in Two Hours.
NEW YORK, June 16.-Erastus Wiman,
who for years has been prominently be
fore the public both in the United States
and Canada as a promoter OF mammoth
enterprises, lecturer and writer, was
last evening found guilty by jury Of his
peers of the crime of forgery. Despite the
eloquent efforts of his counsel, ex-Secre-
tary of the Navy Tracy, the evidence OF
his guilt was, in the opinion of the jury,
too convincing to admit of an acquittal
though they lightened their verdict by a
recommendation to mercy.
At precisely 4:30 o'clock, after being out
one hour and fifty minutes, the jury re-
entered the court room. Mr.. Wiman, who
had been conversing with friends, in
