A Chatting Dish Lesson For the Men

Miss Farmer and Miss Howard had
a class of more than forty men In the big
demonstration kitchen of the Boston
Cooking school last evening. So general
is the interest in chafing dish cookery
that a demand has been made for spec
ial lessons, and this was the first OF
series. Many a man has marveled that
q cooking lesson should be such an at
traction to women, but they have
chance to try it's fascination now Tor
themselves. The things prepared on the
chafing dish were ragout Of sardines'
deviled almonds, lobster a la Newburg,
chicken and oysters, scrambled eggs
with tomatoes and (of course) welsh
rarebit.-Boston Evening TRANSCRIPT

The city of Marseilles has been II

by q colony Of Greeks when Rome, the

was nothing but tiny village. Rome
Is about 1850 years old. OF all the
cities that were in existence when it

Enormous Amount of Crude Sulphur
Received In This Country.
Alfred s. Malcomson has published
IN interesting statistical table, in
which the worlds consumption Of brim'
tone is shown for seven years. This
commercial commodity is of great i'm
,ortance in many branches of manu-
acture, but the fact is not generally
tnown in business circles that 11S. 1877
ons came to the United States from
Sicily in 1897, and that the year before
he importation was even larger.
This commodity comes exclusively
rom Sicily, and to a great extent from
he port of Palermo. 1t is shipped In
,ulk like coal, and looks. In Its raw
condition, like pieces Of broken stone
ibout the size Of those which are used
IN macadam roads. 1t is a dull gray,
md from that to a bright yellow. ac-
.ording to its quality; the higher the
grade the yellower the stone. 1t Is
handled by the large importers In its
crude form only. and these dispose OF
t to the manufacturers. by whom 1t Is
,ubjected to processes which eliminate
The dross and bring to the surface its
valuable properties. 1t is used by the
manufacturers Of fertilizer materials
md sulphuric acid. and large quaint
les are consumed by the manufactor'
.rs Of wood pulp and paper.
The birthstone goes in great quaint
les, also, to the sulphur refiners, ant
ifter 1t becomes sulphur 1t plays an
important part in the manufacture Of
Sulcanized rubber. The addition Of
Iulphur to plastic rubber, vulcanizing
the mass between two tin sheets as an
experiment, gave to the world the vaiu
ible commodity known as hard rub
Der; and no substitute has yet been
found for the yellow dust In the proc.
ass.
The birthstone statistics show that
he United States receives more OF the
material than any other country. For
he same time that 49, 1877 tons reach
,d the ports of New York, Baltimore.
Philadelphia, Charleston, Boston, VIII
nington and Norfolk, the following ex-
Jorts were made from Sicily to other
ons; Italy, 1862 tons; United King
iom, 24,52O tons: Russia, 1882 tons;
Portugal. 1854 tons; Germany, 1921
ons; Austria, 1888 tons; Greece-Tur-
tey, 1886 tons; Belgium, 9,253 tons;
Sweden, Norway and Denmark, 11.22i
ons; Spain, 4.O39 tons; Holland, 3,5@
ons.
The wine growing districts Of Europ,
lse large quantities of the material to
iestroy the insects which attack the
rines. and although many substitutes
ire employed, the most careful grow
rs never abandon birthstone for that
purpose.
The supply in Sicily ready for trans
,ortation is larger than 1t has ever beef.

Ons in storage.

Death came out Of the black nights deep
And steered for battleship's side:
But never q man Of the sailor clan
Looked ON the Deathman's ride.
The Kanean lad and the Hampshire boy
And the boy from Tennessee,
With never a fear that death was near,
Swung into eternity.
Nor flag, nor shot, nor battle cry,
Nor strain Of the nations air,
Broke into the gloom of the sailors doom
Nor yet a priestly prayer.
There looks a face from far-away home
With eye bent on the sea,
Eor the Hampshire Jack who'll ne er como
back,
Or the lad from Tennessee.
Not theirs was the glory Of battle.
No victory crowned the day,
But a nation weeps that the dark sea
keeps
Her dead beneath the bay.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

Store pulverized sugar in wooden kegs.
For a burn take sweet oil and lime
water (equal parts), mix, and keep the
burn we'll covered with it.
If sweet oil is applied to the skin i'm
mediately after q blow or bruise it will
not turn black and blue.
While travelling, a good way to carry
bottles to prevent their being broken is
to carry them in the shoes in the trunk
A mucilage that proves satisfactory is
made Of equal parts Of gum arabic and
gum tragacanth dissolved in sufficient
water to make q thick paste.
Fat vii! not burn if 1t has something to
do, SO If 1t has to be left idle for few
minutes put a crust Of bread or Q slice of
raw potato into the kettle.
The cleanest way to drive water bugs or
reaches from bureau drawers or closet
shelves Is to sprinkle powdered bora X
over and around the shelves, and cover
with clean paper.
For a stiff neck, pains in the chest:

A group of Congressman were tell

awyer, told this experience:
In the town where l first began the
,ractice of the law there was an Irish
nan, Patrick Mcdonald, whom every
me called Pat. Now, Pat was a good
iearted fellow, but he didn't get along
rery well with his Reighbors.
There was an easy-goinS fellow In
he same town by the name of Wheel
ek. He was born in 1910 and his par
.nts named him Harrison. In country
owns the people are familiar with one
mother to the extent that names arc
abbreviated or paraphrased. Every
me knew this man as Hat WheelOck.
We'll, Wheelock and Pat had some
cords over a horse trade. The Ian
,uage used was more expressive than
elegant. According to Pats version OF
he affair Hat threatened to break his
lace. Any way, Pat went before a
Justice Of the peace and made affidavi7
hat he was afraid that Hat would dc
iim bodily injury.
HAT, Of course, was arrested. He got
me to defend him. When the case was
called Pat took the stand and related
the story Of how Hat had threatened to
tn1ure him. When he was turned over

That's all, your honor, said 30 the
Justice, and he dismissed the case

Girls in SioilY.

In some parts Of Sicily the birth Of a
girl is looked upon as such misfortune
that a black flag is hung out Of the
window to proclaim the sad event.
Having to be supported by the family
as long as they are unmarried, and be-
ing obliged to dover the bridegroom,
girls are looked upon as expensive
luxuries. Boys, on the other hand, are
very soon self-supporting, and when
the time comes for marrying increase
the family wealth by bringing home a
bride and her dot. The girls live in
seclusion. are most kindly treated, and
at the age Of fourteen or sixteen they
are disposed Of in marriage on purely
financial basis.
