FOR FEMININE READERS
RECEIPT OF THE LAST VALENTINE
AN UNPLEASANT MILESTONE.
To Cultivate an Interest in Current
Affairs the Way to Keep Young
Carpets for Mount Vernon.

Who is there, however old, however de-
cadent that cannot recall the bitterness of
spirit that was hers many Februarys ago
when folk suddenly stopped sending her
valentines? says a. writer in the New York
Evening Sun. No slight or grievance of
after years approached it. With each sue
ceeding February the memory of it comes
back. Before that st. Valentines day was
red-lettered in the calendar. The postmans
ring meant plissives of the most engaging
and mysterious sort, lace paper with high
ly-colored hearts and clasped hands and
cooling doves entering largely into their
composition, while a bit of rhyme that at
any other time might have seemed silly
gave the finishing literary and sentimental
touch. That it was easy to identify the
sender of the valentines didn't lessen their
distinction. Even if you knew for certain
that mother and big sister and small
brother and Cousin Belle and Uncle Jack
and Mary the nurse and your two bosom
friends at school had sent you five, and, in
deed, just which five of the missives, there
was often one or more that neither guess
ing nor coaXing was able to place, and the
mystery of this one or more made up for
the plain-as-daylight identification of all
the rest. The joy of receiving box val
entine," with it's wealth Of paper lace per-
spective and which, monopolizing the CEN
ter of the stationer's window for the past
fortnight, cost, as you were we'll aware full
80 cents-weil, there may be raptures in the
next world to be compared to it, but not in
this. But there came a change. A Feb. IA
rolled round as usual, and you got no valen-
tines. The grown folk, if they mentioned
them at all, did so jokingly, and if you
showed a sign of feeling sighted they said:
What! big girl like you thinking of val
entines? Why. 1 thought you'd outgrown
such nonsense long ago-Im sure l had at
your age The break didn't come all at
once, of course; like everything else in life
the process was gradual. For two or three
FebruaryS there was a distinct shrinkage
IN your valentine supply; before long it
dwindled to one, but sent by the nurse in
whose eyes you have never grown up, or
some bosom friend who knew your weak
ness for the sentimental missive and in pity
as much as anything else so sought to
please you. Then came the day when no
valentine at all arrived, and you at last
realized that it was because you had grown
beyond them. No sign of approaching
years that you have hereafter known is
harder to bear than this 1t is the first
sign, as it is the first step, which costs.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
Il believe" said Mrs. Russell Sage that
the making of crullers as my mother used
to make them is lost art. 1 remember
how delicious they were, so light and crisp
and flaky. How deftly she used to roll out
the dough and cut them first in squares
then with a pastry wheel divide these
squares into sort of futed columns; then
as only women of those days could lift
these dainty things from the pastry board
Win ner myers and drop them into ket-
tie of smoking hot fat. They used to be
done to perfection when they were lifted
out with a skinner, just a light brown;
then they were busted with powdered sugar
and carefully laid on a big platter to COOL
crullers OF the present day [ have the old
recipe by which those crullers were made,
but can't make them the same, and I
don't believe any one can. / think mate
rails must be different. Whatever the rea-
son is, / know that the women in those
days made cake as no one does now. This
is my mothers recipe; try it and see if you
can succeed: Put one teacupfu of butter
two teacupfuls of sugar and a teaspoonful
OF salt in bowl and whip them TO a cream
then add six wel-beaten eggs and stir them
well through the butter and sugar. CRATE
in half a nutmeg and add just little
ground cinnamon: add a teacuD and a. half
of cream and whip it we'll through the other
ingredients: then dissolve a teaspoonful of
soda in a very little hot water and stir it
through: last of ALL stir in enough flour
sifted first, to make a light dough. Flour
the pastry board and rolling pin, roll and
cut out the dough in squares and run pastry
strips and twist them; drop them in hot fat
and fry"
