Gold Coins In a Beam.

Some time ago two brothers, who were
builders in a small way of business in
Herefordshire, estimated TO pull down and
rebuild some very old premises. Their es-
innate was accepted, and the work com
menced.
While the demolition of the roof was
proceeding they came across a heavy oaken
beam, which ran the length of the build
ing On this being removed it was found
that piece had been cut out in the CEN
ter of the beam and the hole thus made
filed up with old golden coins, che wood
being replaced so as not to be noticed.
Some idea of the value of the coins may
be gathered from the fact that the builders
received about $500 as their share of the
find-London Answers

BOSTON BAKED BEANS.
Best Food on Earth When Prop
erly Prepared.
Impossible to Get the Genuine Article
Outside of the Hub. But Here Is Rec
ipe as Used by Down East
Housewives.

A story is related in connection with
baked beans which, although it has
never been proved to be true, is a
strong testimonial in favor of the dish.
1t is to the effect that BostOnian de-
1ayed for weeks in New York on bust
ness YEARLY sought place after place in
search of his favorite dish. Invariably
he had served up to him the alleged
article, that was to him UNBEATABLE. Fin
ally he found restaurant where he was
personally assured by waiter that he
could have the genuine article. When
the beans came they We're of the stock
New York kind, and the Bostonian, in
a fit of anger, drew a revolver and shot
the waiter in the arm.
He was arraigned before justice who
once lived in Boston, who, after he had
heard the facts in the case, discharged
the prisoner on the ground that he was
fully justified in shooting. No matter
how ignorant the justice was of law, he
at least ''knew beans"
Another story, which also testifes to
the value of beans, is related of some
Gloucester fishermen. The crew of q
coasting vessel spied a fishing schooner
at little distance with the United
States flag flying from the masthead
union down, which is always signal
of distress. The schooner was not ap-
parently disabled and all her rigging
was in ship-shape order. But thinking
something serious had happened or at
least that the fishermen had run out OF
water, the captain of the coaster sent D
boat to the schooner to ascertain the
trouble. When it neared the schooner
one of the men cried out:
Whats the matter; do you need
water?''
mo, we've got plenty of water and
provisions" was the reply, ''but we
have been out of beans two weeks-we
want beams"
The reason why baked beans outside
of New England are so unlike the gen
uine article is that they are not proper
1y cooked, and more especially because
they are not cooked in an old-fashioned
down-east bean pot. There are prob
ably no real bean pots on sale outside
of New England They are all about
the same in appearance. and are made
of potter's clay. which is the material
flower pots are made of.
Anyone can have nice baked beans
if he secures a bean pot and follows
these directions: First get your beans.
The large red kidney variety is largely
used, but the small, white pea bean is
more generally popular.
One quart of beans is sufficient when
cooked for two meals for an average
family. They should be soaked in cold
water for an hour or 50. Then salt and
pepper should be added, together with
half teaspoonful of mustard and half
a teaeuhfu of 1nolasses. The molasses
gives the beans delicious flavor, and,
at the same time, it is not too pro-

THE PARROT GOT EVEN.
He Was Very Tired of Standing by Jones

There is one member of congress whose

mentioned in his presence. On the even
ing of the election she arranged to have
the bird hung in the reception room,
where her husband was going to receive
his friends and also the returns. With
fond expectancy she looked for the news

1t was the parrots cue, and he hadn't
forgotten his careful training
"Hurrah for Jonesl'' shouted the green
imp on his perch, and everybody in the
room stood aghast at the audacity of the
biped.
Mrs. Jones was the first to show a sign
of animation, and it manifested itself in
q volcanic eruption of temper directed
against that cute and Innocent Mexican
parrot, which effectually put quietus on
his exhilaration. The poor bird covered

changed.

THE TOMB OF MAHAL.
Erected in Memory Of a Woman
by an Indian King.
Twenty Thousand Men Worked Two Dec
AIDES to Complete It-Built of Pure
White Marble and Located In
q Charming Garden.

Even in modern tiWes, as well as an
Gent, has it been the pleasure of man
to enshrine in some enduring form the
memory of loved ones gone on before,
and these memorials have taken many
shapes. More than two centuries ago
Shah Jehan, a potentate of India, lost
his beloved wife, Mahal, and erected
for her a tomb, which should tell to the
world his thoughts of her.
For nearly two decades twenty thou
sand men were employed to complete
this structure, whose whiteness should
reflect her purity and virtue, and whose
perfect symmetry indicate her lowell
ness. All that boundless wealth and
richest art and endless love could give
were focused in the superb structure
now known as the ''Taj Mahal," or
tomb of Mahal. 1t stands on broad
plain a little way from the city of Agra,
with It's snowy feet bathed in the
river Jumna. High walls block out the
garden where it lies from the turmoil
of the kings highway, and a noble por-
tai admits one in the haIlOwed pre-
cincts.
My first view of it was by midnight.
Directly before me was long pond,
bordered by stone walks, which were
hemmed In by lofty cypress trees,
throwing their pointed heads far up
in the evening sky and away down at
the end of the vista of shrubbery rose
the famous Tai, matchless, imperial
and almost angelic!
1t is square structure, with four
corner domes and one immense central
dome, all made of the purest white
marble. Its windows are screens of
the same material, and its adornments
consist of mOSaics and a prOfusiOn of
delicate tracery in fair white marble
With measured tread and slow, one
walks down this long avenue and comes
under the very brow of the tomb, and
feels the mighty greatness of Tai, with
it's splendid dome rising like rounded
cloud two hundred and fifty feet in the
Indian heavens. 1t sits on a huge plat
form of marble four hundred feet
square, at either corner of which rises
a long, slender minaret of marble.
One enters reverently, for queen is
here, and gazes up into the dim re-
cesses of the splendid dome of solid
stone unsupported by any arch or pill
lar, and then, indeed, the magic spell
of the Tai comes over you, enchants,
permeates and enfolds you in it's ire
sistible influence.
You abandon yourself to witchery
totally unlike that to be felt in any
other place in the whole world, for here
beauty, life, death and sound with COM
bined forces make you captive.
The echo is marvellous, ''yet it will
not render back i'll noises or rude and
scurrile sound; but if some woman S
lips and gentle breath utter strain, if
some soft bar be played, some verse OF
Indian love lament, the white walls
take the notes and reverberate their
melting ant5phones. Low waves OF
harmony encounter other waves rip
pling on the rounded milky shores, and
fainter and higher the music signing,

Then you try to grasp the beauty OF
the wondrous tracery of this inner
shrine, the work in chalcedony and
jasper and lazulite, made into roses and
lilies and jasmine, and best seen by
day, when the golden sunlight filters
through the marble screens with 50
tender a grace that you almost feel
that here, at least, nature paid obei-
sanee to art.

night and get glimpses of it through

ing whiteness dazzle you, it is still the

to Just cover the beans.

j
Beans should be baked in an oven of
even temperature for either day or a
night, or, in other words, about twelve
hours. 1t is better to bake them in the
daytime, for then they can receive
more attention. AS the water gradually
evaporates more should be added from
time to time, but care should be taken
to keep the beans covered. This must
be done until the beans are nearly
ready to be taken out, when no more
water should be added, so that they will
not be so moist as to become mashed or
broken.
The pot can remain in the oven,
where it will simply keep hot for an in
definite time without injury. Beans
should be served in covered dish
Beans that have been left over are de-
licious warmed up in stewpan with a
little water added, and many bean cpl
cures think the more times beans are
warmed over the better they are.
In number of New England towns
the local baker balxes beans for half the
town. Saturday nights the pots are,
taken to the bake shops, where the
baker marks each one with the initials
of the owner and places them in his big
oven. Next morning the owners call
for their beans and pay the charge of
ten cents, and invest ten more in
brown bread. 1t is an amusing sight
on Sunday morning to see a line of cit
liens going from the bake-shop to their,
homes, each with a bean pot on one
arm and a loaf of brown bread ON the,
other.
Good old-fashioned brown bread is,
the proper accompaniment for baked
beans, and it is as difficult to get the
genuine article in New York as it is to
find good baked beans. Here is a
famous recipe for Boston brown bread
of the proper kind: One cup rye or
graham flour, l cup of white -four, 3
cups Indian meal, 1 cup molasses
(scant), 2 teaspoonfuls soda, u tea
spoonful salt, cup sour milk and 15S
or 81 cups water.
Steam for three hours and then dry
in the oven for half an hour. The
brown bread should be eaten warm and
what is left over can be either steamed
again or toasted.-N. Y. World

An approved way to make black cof-
fee is to put four tablespoonfuls of pure
pzlverized Mocha coffee in a warm,
dry coffee pot, and pour over it gradu-
ally pint of boiling water. Stand the
pot in balm Marie, or in a saucepan of
boiling water, so that, though the cof-

not boil. When this coffee has been
poured through a strainer, it is ready
