Miller. chairman of the Finance commit
tee of the Board of Aldermen. Now
there's the Tucker building. Over 500
900 has been spent ON it and it's not yet
complete. Yet it's returned for only $780,
600. All other property is returned in
proportions Some much below this. The
result will he that in spite of the inn
mense amount of money that has been
spent here within the past year for build
ings and improvements the valuation
over last year will be only about $3.50
600. And by this county valuation the
city is bound. This is wrong and it
ought to be changed when the next leg

OLD-FASHIONED GAME.
After the Birthday Feast Has
Been Eaten.

After the goodies had been eaten, all
the French crackers pulled with snap,
and the boy and girl guests at birth
day party are growing tired of new
fashioned amusements, here's some
thing to- play-an old-fashioned game
called ''the -four and the ring"
This is the way you do it. Somebody
must mold in a coffee cup mound of
-four. 1t only takes a little practice to
turn the shape out perfectly upon a
plate. When the mound is formed
drop into the center of it some little
gift-a ring, a pretty pin or any small
article boy or girl would fancy.
Whoever starts the game must take
knife and cut through the mound to
the plate. Each one in the circle re-
peats this until the lucky boy or girl
comes across the hidden prize, when he
or she must pick it out with the teeth.
% The floury nose, cheeks and chin of
the prize winner look enough like a
clowns after this last proceeding to
amuse a whole roomful of merry chill

A BREAST OF VEAL.
This Article Tells Exactly How It
Should BE Prepared aud How
to stun and Roast 1t.

In the spring, when lamb and veal
are in season, they are not only The
cheapest but the most wholesome of
flesh food. Heavy beef and mutton,
which are in prime condition for food
in cold weather, when they can be hung
until they are tender, begin to pail
upon the appetite in spring. A lighter
and more easily digested meat is de-
manded. Veal comes first into season
to meet this demand, and young lamb
little later. The acid vegetables, fruits
and sauces for meats which are so ap-
petizing at this season are demanded,
when these easily digested young
meats are served. Thus the convention
al diet of the spring months, and the
one which is the easiest to procure, may
be readily proved to be the most whole
some for the season.
The breast of veal is the cheapest por-
ton of the animal. The large proper
ton of the bones are in semihardened
state, when they can be softened by
cooking. The hard bones of the breast

He Didn't Buy Any Cats.

A farmer from Iowa visiting Chicago
dropped in to see the cat show. He was
very much pleased with the tabbies,
and after making round of the cages
he stopped in front of a fine Angora and
said to an attendant: cts kinder RI
diculous for a farmer to buy cat, be-
cause reckon there's dozen round
the barn, but that's beauty, and be-
lieve I'll get it for my little girl. 10
you suppose it's for sale?" The attend
ant thought it was. about how
much?' asked the farmer, lingering
some loose dimes and nickels. Give
hundred dollars" answered the attend
ant, promptly. "Great Scott" gasped
the visitor, "that's more'n 1 got for
whole car load of hogs!" He didn't buy
any cats at that show.

where Ruth spent all her waking hours
it was very lively and entertaining.
Such a running about and ordering and
packing as there was! Mattresses, pill
lows and blankets were strewn over the
floor; dishes, clothing and provisions
were being packed into bamboo bas-
kets. In the open space before the
house, below the high veranda, four big
elephants leisurely broke up and
chewed long, juicy banana stalks, max
ing great rustling noise as they swept
the broad leaves over the ground. By
and by the hubbub on the veranda
quoted down. The filled baskets were
fastened two by two, one on each end
of short pole; this pole was hoisted
over mans shoulder, and off he trot-
ted with his load.
Down among the elephants was a
great shouting and grooming and
straining. The elephants were made
to kneel down while the heavy how
dahs, or elephant saddles, were put in
place on their backs. Two of the how
dahs were packed with bedding, two
folding chairs, a coop of chickens,
stone water filter, cans of kerosene
whatever could not be put into the bam-
boo baskets. The third elephant was
led up to the first landing of the long
flight of veranda stairs, and Ruth's
mamma stepped upon a chair, then on
the stair railing and then on the ele-
plants head; whence it was easy to
each the seat of the howdah. Papa
made the passage to the howdah more
quickly and with less trepidation. Last
ly, dear DR.. McGilvary, who was speed
ing the expedition, handed the baby
over to papa, and chorus of mai nov
pidoy went upfrom an admiring crowd
assembled below. The procession moved
out of the gate, the brass BELLS at the
elephants necks Ginning melodiously.

"You don't mean it'll"
"Oh, yes do. I got him by the
neck and tail and slammed him around
for five minutes, and that took the
fight out of him. AS he lay on his
back, whining like q puppy, I placed
my foot on him and stood there for q

hero. There was good deal of
cheering, as you may suppose, and I
owned the town when left the cage.

Having accomplished one smart thing
I naturally looked around for another.
In field near by was vicious old bull,
and when somebody suggested that I
should tackle the job of overawing him
I was ready at once. To do the thing
up brown I decked myself out in red,
and carried red flag in either hand.

SECRET or HAPPINESS.
II Consists in the Acceptance Of the
i ss Talent and the Tasks God
-. = Has Appointed. ~~s,@ -

Happiness comes through quiet ac-
ceptance of the talent, temperament
and task that God hath appointed. I'm
able to add one cubit to the stature, or
make one hair white or black, man il
also impotent to alter his birth-gifts,"
writes Rev. Newell Dwight Hills, pas
tor of Plymouth church, Brooklyn, on
1.-THE Secrets of Happy Life" in the
Ladies' Home journal. ''Through
heredity our fathers chose the life work
for US, and try as we may we cannot
alter their choice, though we can break
our hearts. To-day one part of society
is making itself miserable through an
overestimate of great deeds and an ag-
onizing desire to do striking things.
Yet struggling and agonizing never did
anything worth while. The first sign
of a great piece of work is the ease and
swiftness with which it was done by
him appointed for the task. Another
part of society destroys happiness by
Understanding small deeds and du-
of huge chunks of granite, but out of
minute flakes of mica. Size has nothing
to do with the valued work, and man
cannot be happy until he surrenders his
will and cheerfully accepts the one tai
ent, or two, or ten, counting it honor
enough to do his appointed work more
perfectly than any other can possibly
do it. We do not need great and splen-
did things, but that common things
shall be lifted up and Illuminated by q
quiet and beautiful spirit. One of the
secrets of happiness is found in the ha'
bitual emphasis of pleasant things and
the persistent casting aside of all ma
Ign elements"
