This letter was held closely in Anne's

travelling cloak, as the train carried her
over the hills Of Pennsylvania. DR.. En-

gloominess of his surroundings and
fallen asleep upon the opposite seat.
She was free to think uninterruptedly,
her eyes upon the long lines of windows
curtained with mist and irisated with
raindrops, the reaches of land patched
with melting snow, the smoke from in

if affrighted.

not to touch this mud until it has quite

to dry first with the umbrella wide

When an umbrella is dry, always wind

How to Make Pork Pies.

Well dry two pounds of -four, mince
half a pound Of "Albene" suet, and put
both with half a pound of butter and a
little salt into saucepan to heat.
When quite melted, turn these ingredi-
ents out Of the vessel, mix them to a
stiff paste and lay the dough before the
fire, covered with cloth, until requir-
ed for use. Chop up four pounds of the
neck of pork very finely, and season it
with white pepper, salt and one dessert
spoonful Of powdered sage. Divide the
paste into rather small pieces, raise
them in oval shapes, fill each with the
minced meat and bake the pies in a
brisk, quick oven.

Really"
They continued in silence, and then
David looked at her squarely.
81 am thinking what an amazing
gulf lies between you and your great
grandmother. Wouldn't she scold you
if she could come back? Wouldn't she,
thought"
II dare say said Anne placidly,
"but wouldn't approve of my great
grandmother, nor of my grandmother
either"
David threw back his head as boy
does before a shout of laughter, correct
ed himself and looked at her with
weighty seriousness.
"Really, impertinence couldn't go
further. 1"
Anne's smile was both naive and
speculative as she continued:
"My grandmothers had no spirit, no
originality, went in for artistic fainting
and wrote silly love rhymes. They were
as savorless as oatmeal without salt,
those admirable, chimney corner WON
en-. Their husbands thought nothing of
crying 'Tush' at them, and they 'tush-
ed beautifully. Oh, they wouldn't be
at all popular today"
"But you are not new woman?"
said David with some awe.
"No," and the denial was uncompro-
missing II hate the new woman. You
have not classified me correctly. I hope

II never heard Of her before.
"Well, I'll tell you something about
her. Without retaining the womanli-
ness of the clinging heroine of the past
and without feeling to sensible extent
desire for progress she could not ex-
list. She is the result of extremes past
and present."
'Many of her?''
"She's everywhere. Her privileges
are SO many she's busy enjoying them.
There's little said about her, but every
one who thinks knows she is the woman
of today"
Her earnestness made her face
strangely lovely, and the thought
prompted David's next words.
"Does she like to be pretty?"
"She delights in it. She's not only a
good chum with men or plaything or
an intellectual machine; she's wom-
an" she said, and there was music in
the word. "She believes that marrying

Curious italian Cigars.

A curious cigar seen in the Italian
quarter of the city, where it is made
and sold, is about ~ inches in length
and very slender, being not much big
ger around than an all tobacco cigarette,
and almost uniform in size for the
greater part of its length. At the end
that is placed in the mouth this cigar is
made around q piece of straw an inch
and half in length, which projects
about quarter of an inch clear Of the
tobacco. When the cigar is made, a
broom splint long enough to reach al
most to the lighting end Of the cigar is
run through the straw, and the cigar is
made around that. The broom splint is
cut long enough SO that quarter or
half an inch of it projects clear Of the
straw mouthpiece.
When the cigar is to be smoked, the
broom splint is withdrawn. The open
ing through it where the splint was
makes the cigar draw freely. and the
section of straw at the slender end
keeps the cigar open there. These
cigars, made of strong. dark tobacco,
are sold at retail for cent each.

Since then she had been unquiet; the
happiness of knowing David's injury
would not be serious mixed with a curl
GUS Discrimination to see him again and
a sense of defeat. II appeared uncon-
formable that this love should have un-
expectedly awakened within her when
she had thought herself too proud and
strong. 1t seemed as if her senses had
lightly sucoumbed to the potency of en-
vironment, as if passion We're mere
impulse, and the man treading the same
path with her a man to love, not the
man her soul had irresistibly sought
and found.
And yet something within her after
all reasoning insisted on being heard,
1t had an ecstatic voice and gave its
own golden meaning to the dark day.
She seemed drawn to David by warm,
strong hand, and the delight of yield

SORBETS AND ICES.
How to Prepare These Refreshing Dishes
without the Use of Liquor.

Sorbets and GRANTEES are ices that are
properly served in the midst of the din
ner, directly after the roast. They are
an especially refreshing course at a sum
mer dinner, and may be made of fruit
juices without the addition of liquor
Sorbets, like punch, are merely iced,
or only partially frozen. They should
be of a smooth, even, creamlike consist
ency. GRANTEES, on the other hand, are
frozen as firm as an ice cream. but are
of a rough grained consistency. To OBJ
tain this effect they are packed in ice
and salt from three to four hours and
are stirred but little. Pineapple is re-
freshing, cooling fruit and makes de-
licious granite or sorbet.
To make pineapple sorbet peel and
cut up sugar loaf pineapple in small
pieces and let it stand overnight or
for - hours in a cool place, with two
cups Of sugar added to it. Then strain
off the juice and press the pulp to ex-
tract all the juice possible. Add to this
the grated rind of Valencia orange and
pint of water. Mix the ingredients
and let them boil ten minutes. Remove
the mixture from the fire, add the juice
of one lemon and of two Valencia or
anges; freeze for about 10 minutes and
serve it.
If you desire u granite, set tho mix
ture away, packed in ice, and let it re-
main there for from two 20 three hours.
Scrape the frozen part occasionally

whole long enough to mix the ice thor
oughly with the mass, but not enough
to beat it to an even cream. A granite
is always rough. Either of these ices is
properly served in cup made of the
half skin Of an orange, with the pulp
scraped out.
For raspberry sorbet boil together
pint of sugar and pint of water for
ten minutes. Put two quarts of raspber-
ries, well mashed, in pan and pour
the hot strip over them. Let them boil
up once, then remove from the fire and
strain. Add the juice Of two lemons
and freeze for eight or ten minutes. To
make raspberry granite pack and
freeze in the same way in which the
pineapple granite was prepared. Some
of the whole berries may be stirred in
just before it is served.
Orange sorbet is particularly deli
cious. Make strip Of three cups Of
sugar and three cups of water. Add tho
grated peel Of five Valencia oranges and
let it boil quickly for 10 minutes. Add
the strained juice Of dozen Valencia
oranges and the juice Of u lemon. Freeze
Immediately and serve at once. The
sorbet should be rich shade Of yellow.
