Some Old Recipes.

A New England gentlewoman early
in the century wrote the following
quaint recipes in her notebook, in a
beautifully clear, even hand:
A friend to the ladies would take
this opportunity to advise them to sup
ply their toilets with the following
valuable articles, viz:
First - Self-knowledge, mirror
showing the form in the most perfect
light.
Second-Tnnocence a white paint,
beautiful, but easily soiled, and requir-
ing continual care to preserve its lus-
ter.
Third Modesty, a rouge giving a de-
lightful bloom to the cheeks.
Fourth-Contentment, an infallible
smoother of wrinkles.
Fifth-Truth, salve rendering the
lips soft and delicious.
Sixth-Gentleness, a cordial impart-
ing sweetness to the voice.
Seventh-Good humor, a universal
beautifier.
A lady who possesses all these toilet
articles must certainly be well equip
ped. They are probably as efficacious
now as they were nearly a hundred
years ago. Doubtless they were COM
posed and presented to the lady in
question by some gallant beau-an OBJ
server of, as we'll as "a friend to-" the
ladies.

It was one of those big English es-
tates which was to make a great many
people rich if all the links in the long
chain of ancestry could be found, says
the New York Times. The legstees
in this country had twenty-one years
in which to prove their claim before
the property would revert to the crown.
Everything possible had been done and
one link was still missing. This was
an old family Bible containing certain
necessary records. 1t was supposed TO
have been burned at the time OF the
Deerfield massacre, but, notwithstand
ing every effort had been made to find
it If by any possibility it was i'll ex-
istence; but without success and the
time expired. Two years later one of
the legatees, a New York woman,
CHANGED to see in a paper the adver-
tisement of woman who wanted work.
The advertiser had signed her name
and it was a family name of the wo-
man who was one of the claimants
for the English estate. It was perhaps
the persistent fascination which the
earnest searcher into genealogical rec
ords never loses, and the force of habit
formed in many years search for pre-
cious documents, which interested her
at once. She answered the advertise
ment in person, found that the woman
had been the wife of a member of her
family. who had died, leaving her in
financial straits which had forced her
to advertise for something to do to
support herself. But the strange and
romantic part of the story was that
among old books and papers which
had been cherished as having belonged
to her husband, the woman had the
old Bible. with its register of births and
deaths. the only link that had been
needed to obtain the big estate, and
now that it was too late it was found
where 1t had been treasured simply as
a souvenir.

In the winter time, when it is i'm
possible to get road dust for the hens,
sifted coal ashes may take their place.
We say nothing about the barrel Of
road dust that may have been pro-
vided from last fall, for we are morally
certain that such barrels are empty and
most of them have always been in that
condition. Give the fowls something
to wash themselves in, for the hen
uses dust in the place of water. She

Gomez has asked this government
to feed his army which has moved
back in the interior of Santiago
province. He represents that his
army is starving and that unless
they are fed they must resort to
their arms in procuring supplies.
The United States government
have given the right kind of answer
which is, Lay down your arms
and we will feed you and see that
you are protected in your rights to
work and earn a livlihood Just the
same as other citizens Of the Island.
We feel that the insurgets are
more to be dreaded since we have
control of the Island than the
Spauiards, and it would be worse
than folly to feed them and have to
fight them in the long run.

OH the Mulhatton yarns spun
about the Klondike region. The la
test one is to the effect that a mi
uer after gold stood in water waist
deep, while at work, for several
months, and becoming stiff and un-
able to work, supposedly from rheu-
matism, relatives returned him to
this country for treatment. Shortly
after his arrival, his mind became
unbalanced, and a specialist deci-
ded it was from gold which had en-
tered his body through the pores of
the skin, so he administered mer-
curial treatment, winding up with
a severe Turkish bath, when $27O
worth of gold dust -four oozed from
the pores of his skin and was sayed
and the miner became sound and
well, mentally as well as physically.

and gave them what they ask for,
now they have not lain down their
arms and gone to work as they
should, but hold on to them and
have raised another battle cry for

suppose the next thing they will
do is to ask the government to
