salad, a handful of parsley, a. small
piece of stale bread a slice of onion, all
chopped together with plenty of black
pepper. Deep gashes are then made in
the ham with sharp carving knife,
about an inch apart, from the hook
down the whole length of the ham, and
these gashes are tightly stuffed to the
very bone with the greens. After that
the ham is baked until we'll done-an
hour will probably be enough, unless
the ham is unusually large. Before put
ting in the oven, sprinkle with a thick
layer of cornmeal and brown sugar
Then pour about half pint of water
into the drip-pan and set in a. close
oven. There is no need of basting, as
the rising steam makes moisture
enough. Before taking to the table, the
crust formed by the coat of meal and
sugar should be carefully removed,
round splotches of black pepper sprink-
led on, and the dish garnished with
parsley. When the ham is cut, the
green veining it's pink flesh, makes it
almost as ornamental as it is delicious.

EASTER MONDAY LOVE TEST.
Strange Method of Testing Fate In
France.

In Cfres-les- Mello, a small town of
the department, or county as we should
call it, of Disc, in France, they have a
strange method of testing fate on Eas-
ter Monday. To understand the Gus
tom it is necessary to glance at an in
cident in French history. When the
Constable Henri-Anne of Montmoren-
cy, owner of the chateau at Mello, was
so pursued by the hatred of Cardinal
Richelieu that he was at last beheaded
for the crime of high treason at Tou-
louise, his wife had q little chapel built
in the park of the chateau, and begged
the cardinal to permit her to place the
remains of her husband in it. Richie
lieu and Louis XIII denied her prayer,
and she retired in sorrow to a convent
where she had a sumptuous chapel
built in which now stand statues in
marble of her and her husband. But
the little chapel of Cir-les- Mello,
though empty, became the center of the
pilgrimages of lovers on account of the
affection which had prompted its cree
ton. 1t is to this modest place of wor-
ship that youths and maidens resort
from miles away on Easter Monday to
learn their fate.
The mode of divination is most Curl
Gus. The entrance to the chapel is pro-
tected by a grillwork, through which
it is easy to pass your hand. The
young man or woman who wishes to
learn whether the chosen one will wed
him or her during the ensuing year,
takes a sou penny in hand and, put
ting the arm through the grill, tries to
cast the sou on the altar. If the sou
falls on the altar and stays there it is
thought certain that the saint will in
tercede for the lover and bring him or
her the happiness of marriage within
the year. If. however, the coin should
not fall on the altar, or should roll off.
adieu for 2 long time TO all hope of
marriage The sous of fortunate and
unfortunate alike are gathered by the

cookery-Equipment Not Costly.
Teachers OF domestic Science demand

Teachers of domestic science demand
salary Of $500 to $1,000 a year. A
number of these women are making a
comfortable living today by forming
classes of servants. They start d club
of from twelve to sixteen servant maids
and have them meet one or two even
ings a week in the various kitchens in
which they are employed. These clubs
are usually warmly welcomed by mis-
tresses, who in most cases pay the fees
of the instructor. Naturally, almost
any good housewife would welcome a
woman who is willing to deliver her
from the seIni-weekly horror of heavy
bread and tough pastry. If the SER
wants are at all interested in their
work they can, in twenty-five or thirty
lessons, get enough practical knowi-
edge of cooking to enable them to fur
nish good, nourishing and wholesome
meals.
Once provided with a good-sized kit
chen, containing a good range, a large
kitchen table, it is astonishing how in
extensively q cooking class can be
fitted up with all the necessary equip
ments. a domestic science teacher
gave the following list to a mission as
requirements for a cooking class of
sixteen:
Two dozen gem pans.
One-haf dozen two-quart saucepans.
Three small saucepans.
Four large mixing bowls.
Three small mixing bowls.
One dozen white metal tablespoons.

Why dost thou scorn me so?

Long wakeful here I know,
AID music from the steep
Where waters fail and flow.
Wilt thou not hear me, Sleep?
All sounds that might bestow
Rest on the fevered bed.
All slumb'rous sounds and low
Are mingled here and wed,
And bring no drowsy head.
Shy dreams fit to and fro
Y, it'll shadowy hair dispread,
With Wistful eyes that glow,
And silent robes that sweep.
Thou wilt not hear me: no?
Wilt thou not hear me, Sleep?
What cause hast thou to show
OF sacrifice unsDed?
OF all thy slaves below

With service sung and said:
Have culled such buds as blow
Soft peoples white and red,
Where thy still gardens grow,
And Lethe's waters weep.
