Tho Champion in Frusality.

Guy, the founder Of Guys hospital
in London, was us parsimonious in
private life as he was munificent in
public. A good story illustrative Of
this Is told of him In connection with
John Hopkins, one Of his contempor-
aries, who was nicknamed vulture
Hopkins on account Of his rapacious
mode Of acquiring his immense wealth.
On one occasion he paid visit to Guy,
who, on Hopkins entering the room,
lighted farthing candle. Hopkins, on
being asked the object Of his visit,
said: II have been told that you, sir.
ure better versed in the prudent and
necessary art Of saving than any man
living, and therefore wait on you for
q lesson in frugality. I have always
regarded myself as an adept in this
matter, but am told you excel me" }"
"Oh," replied Guy, Il: that is all you
came to talk about, we can discuss the
matter in the dark" and thereupon he
blew out the candle. Struck with this
example of economy. Hopkins acknowl-
edged that he had met his superior

Holiday Candies.

Molasses candy may be quickly
made by placing in . granite kettle
one teacupfui of white sugar and II
cups New Orleans molssses. Let it
boil until it makes . moderately hard
candy when tested by dropping bit
from the spoon into cold water. Add
one tablespoonful butter, three teas
poonfuls vinegar, then boil two min
utes longer. Take from the stove AID
stir in veil one-quarter teaspoonfnl
salerstus, pour on well buttared plates.
and before it gets too cold check of
with q buttered knife. This may be
improved by having teacupful OF
hickory or walnut meats spread on the
buttered plates, before pouring over
the hot candy. Popcorn or peanuts
also may be used. A foundation for
many fancy candies is made thus:
Place in granite kettle two cupfuls
granulated sugar, one cupful cold
water and pinch of cream of tartar.
Stir until it dissolves but not after il
boils, or it will grain. Cover the
kettle nd boil about ten minutes.
There are several different stages al
which it may be removed from the
fire, when it is soft and creamy, OF
hard or quite brittle. If one wishes ii
creamy, it must be stirred one way
until it is cold. commencing when II
is a little more than lukewarm. Cocoa
nut, chocolate, almond, fig or nut
candy may be made from this fondant.

Fog and Coal Gas.

According to the statement OF Prof.
Lewes, a London fog deprives coal
gas Of Ill per cent Of its illuminating
power, but this is not so astonishing as
is the fact that, under similar circum-
stances, the searching light Of an In
candescent burner loses as much as
20.S Of its efficacy. The reason given
by Prof. Lewes for this phenomenon
is that the spectrum Of both the incan-
descent and the electric light APP
proaches very nearly that Of the solar
spectrum. being very rich in the violet
and ultraviolet rays. 1t is precisely
these rays which cannot make their
way through a London fog. To this
Is attributed the fact that the sun looks
red on a foggy day. The violet rays
are absorbed by the solid particles
floating in the aqueous vapor Of the
atmosphere. and only the red portions
of the spectrum get through. The In
teresting additional statement Is made
In this connection that the old argand
burner is much more successful in re-
sisting a London fog than any Of its
later rivals.-Science.

laughed.
And just at the gray break Of dawn,
when they could almost hear the
church bells ring through the fog and
darkness, there went Q thrill and
quiver through the Forest Queen from
stem to stern-a sudden pulse, like
the beating Of . heart. Guy Dayrel

The captain rubbed his shaggy
sleeve lightly across his eyes as he
spoke, and then turned away to issue
the necessary orders.
The raddy shine Of sunrise was
tipping thewaves with crests OF car

Is It a compliment or treat to this
country that England is constantly
strengthening her naval forces In
American waters? Every ship on the
North American and West Indian sta
tions whose term Of service expires is
replaced by a more formidable one,
and great sums are being expended in
improving docks and harbor defenses.
Why this display Of strength? Surely
it is not for the protection Of Canada:
the most hopeless pess!mist in the Do
minion cannot fear an attack from the
United States. But there Is scarcely
more reason to fear an attack on the
United States by Great Britain. Prob
ably the true and simple explanation
is that the British Government is build
ing larger vessels now than 1t did form
erly. and, having them on hand, Is
sending them TO foreign stations in the
usual routine.
