For the Hous ekeeper to Know.

Wisconsin Agrc ulturist: Here is a
list which will be found invaluable by
the housewife who pastes it on card
and hangs it up in her pantry. The
list does away with the necessity for
numbering up the place with weights
>aud measures:
Four even teaspoonfuls of LIQUID
equal one even tablespoonful.
Three even teaspoonfuls dry material
equal one even tablespoonful.
Sixteen tablespoonfuls liquid equal
one cupful.
Twelve tablespoonfuls dry material
equal one cupful.
Two cupfuls equal one pint.
Four cupfuls equal one quart.
Four cupfuls flour equal one quart or
one pound.
Two cupfuls solid butter equal one
pound
Two cupfuls granulated sugar equal
one pound.
Two and onehalf cupfuls powdered
sugar equal one pound.
One pint of milk or water equals one
pound.
One dozen eggs should weigh one
and one-half pounds.
Skim milk is heavier than whole
milk and cream is lighter than either
while pure milk is 6 per cent heavier
than water.
The following table of proportion is
also valuable: Use
One teaspoonful of soda to one cupfu]

One teaspoonful of soda to one pin,

He Deserved the Medal.

The Mayor of New York lately
awarded a medal to William III. Behlpr.
a fireman OF that city. for his bravery
in rescuing IL oma from a burning
house. From the recount of the affair
given by the New York Herald. the
medal was we'll deserved.
The fire was in Il tenement house
occupied by Italian families. and was
well under way when the tiremen ar
rived. Italians were rushing out. and.
presently the cry Went up that a WON.
an and child had been left in one of the
rooms. A minute more. and the woman
appeared ut a window with the baby In
her rms
The Italians in the street dropped on
their knees to pray. No ladder was Mt
hand, and every instant was precious.
Behler meantime had entered the next
house, and nov made his appearance
at a four-story window on a level with
that at which the woman was standing.
She by this time was shricking and
making ready to jump. The crowd
shouted to her to hold on. and then fell
to cheering Behler. as it was seen that
lie meant to attempt a rescue.
With another nal holding his legs,
he swung himself far out of the VIM
dow, took the child from its mother,
and passed it to his companion. Now
came q work much more difficult and
perilous. The woman was heavy, but
Behler's did not fail him. Put
ting himself into the best position posi-
BILE, he ordered her to swing toward
him. This she did. and he caught her
and so drew her into the window. II
he had overbalanced himself the result
would have been death for both Of
them.

days when enormous siX-pocket pla-

CHAPTER NIL

l.awrcnrc's departure annoyed Mrs
Dumnrcsu exceedingly. She had counted
with great confidence upon his proposing
10 Anne: and she thought that Anne
would lvlvc given him IL favorable answer.
She tried t" discover whether any such
proposal had been made. but could extract
nothing from Anne herself. Anne could
not give amy reason for MIR. I.awrcncc's
sudden determination to visit Cairo. She
had always heard that hr intended doing
so sooner or later. But she said nothing
about I.awrence's further plans. Even
he had not mentioned India To Mrs. On
marcSu.
Anne looked palcr than usual. but not
detected. Rather she WAS scrupulously
cheerful and easy to please. Mrs. Du-
maresq WAS rcassurcd concerning her.
She WAS struck sometimes by Il pathetic
shadow under Anne's eyes. a saddcned
dreop of the corners of her lips when she
was silent. But then Anne would look
up and smile with all her accustomed
sweetness. or say something particularly
pleasant and gentle. and the previous look
of sadness vanished like IL dream.
\ large skctching party had been or
sanizcd for IL Saturday in March. 1t
was Il beautiful day: there were few
clouds in the sky. the sun WAS bright and
the air fresh: moreover. there were no
signs of a khamsccn. or hot wind. past,
present or to ONE Each member of the
party was mounted on Il donkey and at

they saw II soft-eycd buffalo bathing itself

They all snt down; but as they did not
all wish to draw exactly the same thing.
some of them presently strolled away to
other points: and after Il time, Mrs. Her
on and Anne, who remained to sketch the
date palms, We're left together. Then
Mrs. Heron went to find her own particu-
lar Arab. who had concealed her India
rubber somewhere about his person, and
forgotten to give it to her again, and Anne
was for a time alone. She put down her
pencil. looked dreamily at the scene before
her and fell into a rcverie from which she
WAS only awakened by the sound of a foot.
step and the appearance of Mr.. Enstlnke.
Mrs. Heron sent me to look for YOU,
Miss Cartcrct." he said. '.Tley are going
to light Il fire. boil some water and make
tea: but she says you need not come just
yet if are not ready"
"Thank you." said Anne: II want to
put one of those b~lue-and-red figures into
my sketch: l will do it first"
He took Mrs. Heron's chair. and occu.
pied himself in sketching little palm trees
and pyramids upon n scrap of blotting
paper. Anne worked industriously ut her
sketch. thought of her fairgrounds and
her middle distances, and forgot all about
him.
He spoke at last in a low tone, but in
a we!l-considered way. and not as if upon
the impulse of the moment

No wonder that DIR. Hughes found him
exhausted and l~istlcss next morning. Anne
came to read to him i'll the afternoon,
when he was comfortably established in
the drawing room. Her eyes We're bright;
her Il and voice serene. lie looked ut
her with Il curious miXturc of rcmorSc and
longing.
Three or four days passed bv. The doe
tor declared him well enough to travel. ii
it were necessary that he should do so:
but his decision was not announced in
public. Lawrence had made it Al special
request that nothing should be said about
his departure until he himself had spok-
on to Mrs. Dumarcsq. And every day he
said that he would speak TO her. and ev-
cry day he put off the decisive word until
the morrow.
1t was one evening i'm February that
Lawrence iiluut.tlccu HIS unul TpSDlutlpl.
He had taken his first walk outside the
garden. in company with Mr.. Dumaresq.
Harold and Anne. The fact that he and
Anne were great friends was universally
conceded. and neither Mr.. Dumarcsq nor
Harold made much apology for starting
off to Interfere in Il dispute between some
Arab wagoncrs. whose carts were terri
bly, overladcn. and whose horses were al
most sinking in the deep sand of the road.
Lawrence sat down to rest on Il great
| square stone.
"How beautiful it is" said Anne. "Antl
vet there is not much beauty in the coun-
try itself; it is the color that is so lovely"
Lawrence stopped and picked up a blue
flower that was growing ut his feet. 'How
like this is to the forgct-me-not." he said.
Then lie occupied himself in pulling it to
pieces and dropping it on the sand. II
won't ask you to take il as Il reminder of
mo; it is not the true forget-me-not," he
said. Then. as she answered nothing. he
continued. in "a lower tone: 81 do not want
you 20 remember me-" -
Not want mc-to remember youY"
NO" His voice w:ls very uncertain,
and lie made long pallscs as he spoke. II
think of going to Cairo the day after to-
morrow-and l shall probably return by
way of Port Said and Ismalia-tlicn l
shall go To India"
Lawrence dared not look al her. What
must she think of him now: He went
on with nervous tlucnc.y.% supporting his
head between his hands: II have not told
Mrs. Dumarcsq yet. But Dir. Hughes
says I may GO"
He v%cnturcl to look nj her. She was
still gazing nj the sunset. and Ills glow
WAS bright upon her face. Her hands
were claspca before her. and her attitude
was quiet and composed. Only. when the
sun sank and the crimson light had died
away. le saw that it had left her face as
! pnlc as death.

Miss Alice de Rothschild, who is

possessing the finest collection of old
lace of any private individual. 1t
will bear comparison with the posses
sons of royalty, for it is certainly
one of the most perfect existing at

exemplfied by the fact that as soon

she always receives the lace dealers,
from whose stores her great wealth
naturally enables her to make con-
siderable purchases.
