Carlsbrooke Castle.

AS a memorial to the late Prince
Henry of Battenberg, Governor of the
Castle, Carisbrooke Castle, in the Isle
of Wight, is to be fully repaired. BY
some considered to be of Roman. per-
haps British, origin, the Castle was
captured in $50 by Cedric, who gave it
to his nephews. Stuf and Wightgar. tho
latter Of whom rebuilt it. The fort
was enlarged by William Fitz-Osborne.
the first lord of the island, and in
Doomsday Book it is cited as occupy
ing one virgate of ground. Some Nor
man masonry remains at the north
west angle and in the Mountjoy tower
the main entrance is supposed to have
been built, temp. Edward ", by Lord
Widville, whose arms, between York
roses, are on stone near the top. The
Castle assumed its present aspect in
the reign of Queen Elizabeth; she built
the outworks, with a moat, and re-
paired the principal gate, above which
is "E. R., 159s," employing for engi-
neer the Italian, Ganebella, who had
fortified Antwerp. The keep stands on
an artificial mound assembled by seven
ty steps. One may yet see the ruins of
the apartments occupied for some four
teen months, during Colonel Ham
monds governorship, by Charles l.,
from which he twice attempted to es-
cape. and where his children were i'm
prisoned after his death. The grave
stone of his daughter, Princess Eliza
beth, inscribed "E J." was found in
1893 near the altar of Newport parish
church, wherein the queen erected
a monument to her memory forty
years ago.

Another Evening Game,

Crambo.-Two pieces of paper, un-
like both in size and color, are given to
each person. On one of them a noun
must be written, and on the other a
question. Two gentlemen's hats must
then be called for, into one of which
the nouns must be dropped, and into
the other the questions and all well
shufiied. The hats must then be hand
ed round, until each person is supplied
with question and noun. The thing
now to be done is for each player to
write an answer in rhyme to the ques-
tion he finds written on the one paper,
bringing in the noun written on the
other paper.
Sometimes the questions and the
nouns are so thoroughly inapplicable
to each other that it is impossible to
produce anything like sensible poetry.
The player need not trouble about this
however, for the more nonsensical the
rhyme the greater the fun. Sometimes
players are fortunate enough to draw
from the hats both noun and question
that may be easily linked together. A
question once drawn was: why do
summer roses fade?" The noun drawn
was butterfly" SO that the following
rhyme was easily concocted:
Summer roses fade away,
The reason why | cannot say,
Unless it be because they try
To cheat the pretty butterfly.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS,

Use milk pudding and stewed fruit
for bilious dyspepsia.
After washing, never wiring worsted
dress goods. Shake them.
Bamboo furniture eau be cleaned
with brush dipped in salt water.
Soak black calico in salt and water
before washing, and SO prevent its
fading.
Toilet vinegar, cologne water aud
alcohol are good for oily and moist
hands.
Spirits of turpentine is the thing
with which to cleanse and brighten
patent-leather.
A dress pattern always makes nice
present, and can be bought in box
Tor that purpose.
The dirtiest frying-pa will become
clean if soaked five minutes IN am.
monia and water.
Moderately strong salt and water
taken by the teaspoonful at intervals
is a cure for catarrhal cold.
No receptacle for soiled clothing,
even if handsomely decorated, should
be kept in sleeping apartment.
When baking sponge cakes always
have steady oven, and do not open
the door for the first twenty minutes.
Fresh fish should not be soaked in
water before cooking; this treatment
only ruins the flavor and makes il
soft.
Silver handles for tooth brushes are
arranged 30 that the brushes fit into
them, and can be renewed whenever
necessary.
The addition of a little powdered
Eorax to cold starch tends to give the
linen extra stiffness, and little tur.
pentlne put into the boiled starch adds
luster.
Old feather-beds, if left on grass
plot during summer shower, and
allowed to get thoroughly wet, Will,
when dry and beaten, seem fresh and
new again.
Whiten yellow linen by boiling hall
an hour in one pound of fine soap
melted in one gallon of milk. Then
wash in suds, then in two cold waters,
with a little blueing.
If your window glass is lacking in
brilliancy clean it with liquid paste
made of alcohol and whitening. A
little of this mixture will remove
specks, and impart high luster to the
glass.
Electricity can he utilized for table
decoration in wonderful ways. Nina,
ture icebergs, surrounding an electric
light, produce beautiful effect, and
lights can be arranged among ferns SO
that they resemble cloud of 6rehies.

BAKED BEANS.

No other vegetable has 80 great q
food value, though peas and lentils are
nearly as nutritious. A frequent fail
ing in the preparation of beans is to
allow too little time for cooking. They
should be be cooked long and slowly
to be satisfactory. Clean and wash
we'll one quart of navy or pea beans
and put to soak over night in n gallon
of cold water. In the morning pour
of this watrr and rinse the beans in
cold water, then put them in stew
pan with six quarts of cold water. Ada
n quarter of a teaspoonful of soda and
heat slowly to the boiling point and
simmer quarter of an hour. Then
drain and rinse the beans again in cold
water. Put them in an earthenware
baking-dish and place a pound and q
half of cooked corn beef in the centre
of the pot. Mix tablespoonful of
molasses and quarter OF saltspoon
Of pepper with one quart of boiling
water and pour over the beans. If
the liquid does not wholly cover them,
add enough boiling water to just cover
the beans. Cover the pot and bake
slowly all day, being careful to keep
the beans just covered with water.
They must be moist when done, but
not sloppy. If the whole oven is need
ed at any time, set the beans-pot on
the back of the stove until ready
to replace it. This quantity will
make more than two quarts when
done, and what is left over can be used
as salad for luncheon afterward. For
those who do not like corn beef or
pork, two tablespoonfuls of butter and
heaping teaspoonful of salt can be
used instead. At serving time turn
out on flat dish and place the meat
in the centre. If the beans have been
properly cooked each will be whole,
yet all will be tender and have rich,
reddish color. Tomato catchup is a
harmonious adjunct to baked beans,
and takes the place of pickles.

1t is told that the locomotive whistle
was invented because of the destruc-
ton of a load of eggs. When loco
motives were first built the country
roads were for the most part crossed
at grade and the engine driver had no
way of giving warning of his approach
except by blowing a tin horn. The
horn, it may be imagined, was far from
being sufficient warning. One day in
the year 1888 farmer of Thornton
was crossing the railroad track on one
Of the country roads with a great load
of eggs and butter. Just as he came
out upon the track train approached.
The engine man blew his horn Justify,
but the farmer did not hear it. Eighty
dozen of eggs and fifty pounds of but
ter were smashed into an indis-
tinguishable. unpleasant mass and
mingled with the kindling wood to
which the wagon was reduced. The
railway company had to pay the farm
er the value of his wagon. 1t was con-
sidered a very serious matter and
straightway director of the COM
pany, Ashlen Baxter yynHfne, went to
Alton Grange, where Georges Stephen
son lived, to see If he could not invent
. something that would give warning
more likely to be heard. Stephenson
went to work and the next day had a
contrivance which. when attached to
the engine boiler and the steam turned
on gave out shrill dscordant sound.
The railroad directors. greatly delight

An Invention in Sea Signalling.

An Amsterdam correspondent of the
Westminster Gazette writes: 1t looks
as If we dull Dutchmen are upon the
point of giving to the world priceless
invention, the means by which ships at
sea may be on speaking terms under
all circumstances, or have the power
to communicate with the shore. Some
weeks since people living on the out
skirts of the town, returning home in
the dark hours of the evening were
scared by very peculiar unearthly
sounds, something akin to the deep,
penetrating scream of steamers syren
In the mist, although there was no
water near to speak of. and consequent
ly no possibility of steamer. The rid

ing sound which may

which can be moved about without al
tering the sound-that is, in the same
manner as an electric searchlight.
4 Last, not least, that parts of the
instrument may be differently tuned,
which makes it possible to give con-
slant alternative signals which may be
codified, so that conversation may be
kept up.
1t appears that the inventors some
weeks since made trials in the dark,
and, of course, in lonely, outlying
places in the neighborhood, and so pro-
duced the ghostly noises aforesaid.
Competent persons are of opinion that
the thing really is great success. The
Zealand Company has resolved to give
the invention fair trial, and the
world may soon hear more of it. 1t
is quite clear that If the steamer which
met the Drummond Castle had pos
sessed such an instrument and its sig
mails could have been understood by
the Drummonds officers, the disaster
might not have occurred.

AN HONEST MEAT STEW.

Real honest meat stew is delicious
dish, but this is one of the best ways
to make it. Gut the meat into small
dice with sharp knife and put to
stewing gently in pint of hot water
or sweet, not very salty, beef stock.
Stew till tender, then put in three
tablespoonfuls of diced, cold-boiled
potatoes. Stir in quarter of cup OF
butter, two tablespoonful of flour till
it is smooth, one tablespoonful of beef
extract, teaspoonful OF lemon juice
and teaspoonfnl of chopped parsley.
Stir this evenly into the bubbling
stew and season with salt and pepper
to taste. It's good and you are bound
to think so. Toasted bread is nice to
eat with it. 1t is an excellent "hurry-
up" dish.

A boy from Mecca was seeing Da-
mascus. He was a handsome lad, thir-
teen years old, by the name of Mo-
hammed. He had come from Arabia
with his uncle, who was on business
trip to Damascus and other Syrian
cities. Most assuredly he knew the
story OF Damascus, "the garden of the
Lord" watered by the seven branches
OF the river ALBANIA. founded by the
grandson of Shem. His family sprang
from the distinguished tribe of Kore-
ish, the custodians of the sacred shrine
at Caaba, and the Arabian descendants
of Ishmael were as well informed in
biblical history as their Hebrew kim
folk. 1t was not the antiquity of
Damascus that appealed to Moham-
med's delighted eyes and carried cap
tive his fancy, but scenes, its bright
bazaars, revealing all the life for which
1t stood, its street world far exceeding
in marvels anything he has ever
imagined. The Arabian boy grew to
manhood, possessed of grace Of person
and fascinating qualities of mind. He
was by turns a shepherd, a merchant,
the manager of the estates of a widow
named Cadijah, and afterward her
husband. A few miles from Mecca is
a cave much frequented by Mohammed
Here he is visited by the Angel Gabriel
and hidden to tell his fellow-men
there is but one God, and Mohammed
is his prophet" He is given copy of
the Koran, written since all eternity
on tablets in the heaven, and he is
commanded to take the sword and con-
quer the world for the new faith. And
now the Arabian boy calls himself the
prophet of God, with a multitude Of
Mohammedan followers. The sword
or the Koran is the watchword of his
armies everywhere victorious. In brief
while Damascus pays tribute to her
Arabian conquerors, and the city that
gave him his first vision of the world
is no longer Christian but Moslem.
Such in quick succession is the fate of
Jerusalem, Antioch. and Aleppo.
All this happened more than thirteen
centuries ago. The Koran contains the
doctrines of Mohammed, as he said
they were given him by the angel.
Among other things 1t commands the
practice of prayer. Five times each
day must the believer turn his face
toward Mecca and engage in devotion.
Mecca, the birthplace of the boy Mo-
hammed, and thither every worshipper
of Damascus turns at the muezzin call.
Centuries ago a Tartar people con-
quered the Arabs, but adopted their re-
ligion, and to-day it is the Moslem-
Turk who rules in the East, not the
Moslem-Arab.
The faithful of all nationalities, how
ever, pray to Allah to-day as they did
thirteen hundred years ago, to destroy
the infidels, make their children or
phans, defile their abodes, give them
and their families, and their house.
holds, and their women, and their DOS
sessions, as booty to the Moslems."
Truly, the boy from Mecca was born
under brilliant star, but who will say
1t was good and beneficent?

ENGLISH BREAD CRUST FOR FOWL.

Put cupful of bread crumbs into
half pint of milk, add Glove of gar
lie or small onion left whole, a blade
of mace, lump of butter about the
size of pecan nut, pepper and salt.
Let the mixture boil until it thickens
to the consistency of drawn butter.
The onion and mace are removed when
it is put into the sauce tureen. 1t is
much daintier and more wholesome
than gravy. Gold boiled ham is al
ways served with roast fowl in England,
and those who have 80 eaten it approve
highly OF the combination.
