Changed Her Mind Too,


A young couple in Lancashire vii
lage had been counting for several
years. The young man one day said to
the woman:
SAIL, l Gamma marry tnee."
! Flows that?" asked she.
"I've changed my mind" said he.
"Well, I'll tell you what we'll do"
said She "If folk know that it's thee
as has given me up, l shanna be able
to get another chap, but If they think
that I've given you up then l can get
another chap. So we'll have banns
published, and when the wedding day
comes the parson will say to thee,
wilt thou have this woman to be thy
welded wifeY and tina must say, I
will And when he says to me, wilt
thou have this man to be thy welded
husbandY l shall say, 4 winna.'"
The day came, and when the minister
said, "Wilt thou have this woman to be
thy welded wife," the man answered.:
81 will"
Then the parson said to the woman:
"Wilt thou have this man to be thy
welded husband?" And she said:
~ will"
"Why," said the young man furious
ly, you said you would say, 4 win
ma"
81 know that" said the young wom-
an, "but I've changed my mind since"

man plaintively the other day. II

ago. l was walking along and heard
one street boy say to another, oh,
you go buy 10 cents worth of potash
What for? says No. 2. For 10 cents
yelled the other, and ran off giggling.
II thought it was pretty good, and
I'd try it on Charlie at supper. But
when l told him to go buy 10 cents
worth of potash he never said word,
and | knew another joke had fallen
fiat and kept still. But the worst was
later. He put on his hat and vanished
after supper, coming back in minute
with little parcel that he handed to
me.
"'What's thatT asked l.
"'Why, the potash you said you
wanted answered he, and l nearly
had Mysteries on the spot. Did you
ever hear anything so perfectly awful?
l won't ever try to get off anything
funny again."

walked away.-Cleveland Plain Deal

ChiIdren's Savings.

Father was going away on business,
so he called his eldest little boy and said
Johnnie, while I'm away, l want youto
take great care OF mother. | leave her
in your charge"
That night, when Johnnie knelt at his
mothers knee, saying his evening prayer,
he said as usual: please, Lord, bless
grandmamma, and take care of her;
bless father and take care of him; but
you needn't trouble about mother. be-
cause I'm going to take care OF her"
1t was the evening hour again, and
Lucy knelt to lisp her evening prayer.
Her little heart was bursting with self
satisiaction-she had been so exemplary
all through the day.
"Oh, Lord" she said, make me very
good, even better than am"
Jim's mother sent him down stairs in
the dark, saying: Don't be afraid, dear,
God is on the stairs" YES" he replied,
God is on the stairs, and Alice is in the
Kitchen" His faith in Alice was evil

The Woman of the Angelus.

Barbizon, little village in the midst
of the forest of Fontainebleau, short
distance from Paris, has become goal
of pilgrimage for many admirers of Mil
let's work, and particularly for those
who know that the woman who sug-
gested to the great painter his famous
picture of THE Angelus" still lives there
in little cottage a stones throw from
where she was born. Mere Adee's home
is small vineclad cottage, is which she
lives a frugal but comfortable life,
troubled only by the over-inqaisitive
tourists and by her rheumatism. She
must have been an attractive woman
once, for even now, although she has
witnessed the passing gilmore than three
score years and ten, there are traces of
former beauty in her wrinkled face.
Mere Adele has worn her fingers blunt
by toll, and her form is bent under the
burdens she has had to bear When she
looks at you her smile is like benedic-
ton, and the beautiful things of earth
are not lost upon her. Her manner is
cheerful, as one who feels she has not
lived in vain. If questioned closely she
will tell you of the day when the great
artist came through the dense forest with
his wife and children, leaving behind him
the gay city of Paris with its schools OF
painting and its models She knows a

THE HOUSEHOLD.

Every housekeeper has experienced the
sense of desperation caused by the occa-
sional obstinacy of the double boiler. The
water in the outside vessel often unac-
countably refuses to boil. When this
happens, fill the outer saucepan with
strong salt water, aud it will boil much
sooner.
A delicious hot gingerbread was served
at home luncheon the other day. 1t
was fresh from the oven, spicy and ten
der, and on being broken, it proved to be
full of almonds. They had been split in
to halves so as not to be heavy enough
to sink to the bottom of the dough dur
ing the cooking process. The combina-
ton OF flavors is to be recommended.
Before peaches have all gone they
should be served at least once for break
fast with cold oatmeal. The oatmeal
and turned out into a melon mold or
into individual molds. If the former, it
should be served on a round platter with
border of sliced peaches piled around it.
If the small molds are used they should
be arranged around the edge OF the plat
ter, the peaches being piled in the centre.
Served with powdered sugar and cream,
this is delicious breakfast DISH and
may be utilized. too, for a sweet at the
children's early dinner.
A very effective picture frame is made
with tea est mating. Now that Christ
mas presents are beginning to loom dim
ly in the background, it will not be amiss
to experiment at least with the material
in this way Cut the frame from paste
board. making larger square or circle
from the mating. Cut out the centre of
the latter, leaving an equal margin.
Dampen the mating and lay it on the
frame, first spreading the frame with thin
| glue. Cut the corners so that they may
be easily turned, and iron the whole
wrong side of the frame until dried The
mating makes an excellent background
for watercolor or photograph.
The use of peanuts in the preparation
of various dishes is increasing. A wafer
to be offered at afternoon teas is made
by chopping very fine pint of the shelled
nuts and mixing them with three eggs,
two tablespoonful of milk, a little salt,
and cup OF sugar creamed with two
tablespooniuls of butter. Flour is added
to make soft dough, which is rolled
very thin, cut into strips, aud baked in a
moderate oven. Peanut sandwiches, too
are appetizing and nutritious either fol
tea or with the salad at luncheon or din
ner. Several receipts are followed &c
make them, good one calling for brown
bread. This is cut in thin slices and very
lightly buttered, spread with cream
cheese and layer OF finely chopped nuts
The slices are then pressed together, ant
cut in circles or oblongs. At the grocer
may be found peanut butter put up il
tumbers or small jars that is also in
tended for use in sandwiches. The com
pound is manufactured by several differ
ent firms, all of whom claim great nutri
tive as well as appetizing value for thei
product.

Queen Victoria's Wealth.

We have often heard that the Queen of
England is an exceedingly rich woman,
but few people are really aware Of the
enormous wealth she possesses, says a
writer in Golfers Weekly. Its full
amount will never be known, for the
wills OF royal personages are never
disclosed. AS mere items other present in
come, however, may be mentioned the
allotted to her spouse, Prince Albert,
and which has been paid her ever since
his death as the widow of that PEN
stoned parsonage. Her mother, the late
Duchess OF Kent left her $4,000 year.
Thus nearly 100000 annual dollars
go to swell her private purse, wholly
outside OF her royal revenues, which no.
body mentions in any exact terms and OF
whose real amount nobody save certain
reticent officials is prehaps aware. Indi-
viduals, it is well known. have on sew
eral occasions bequeathed the Queen
large fortunes. Her property in jewels
alone is something prodigious. Her
gold plate, stored at Windsor Castle
and brought to London for use at court
festivities at Buckingham palace, is of
vast value. 1t chiefly consists of dishes,
fagons, stands and shields, and has been
accumulated, through many past genera
tions, by the monarchs who preceded her.
Other treasures in the way of furniture,
apparel household ornaments, tapes
tries, rugs. carriages, horses, etc., would
reach huge sums it reduced to pounds,
shillings and pence.
Unless | am greatly in error, all the
royal palaces are exempt from taxation,
and the state defrays the huge expenses
Of maintaining each. 1t is now and
then affirmed and not without truth,
that president of the United States has
more power than the Queen of England.
But his yearly e10, 900 makes a piteous
showing beside that copious stream of
gold which pours continuously into the
Golfers of Windsor. And when one
thinks of the 100000 per annum given
the Prince of Wales, and the smaller yet
regal incomes distributed among his
brothers and sisters, one realizes the
tremendous financial benefits which
royalty obtains in one of the richest
nations of the world.

Tells It's own Story.

In a pretty Wisconsin town not far
from Milwaukee there is spite
fence" which tells it's own story to all
the world. 1t is a high and tight board
affair and cuts off view across q
number of beautiful lawns. The man
who lives on one side of it evidently
feared that the fence would bring down
on his head the condemnation of his
neighbors. Not wishing to be unjustly
blamSd, he has therefore painted on
his side of the fence in letters that can
be read block away these words:
"He built this fence. didn't do it."
The man on the other side also had
no idea. of letting a false impression
get out. Accordingly he has painted
on the other side Of the high barrier:
81 had to do it."

envy wife went west the other day to

said Brown with q smile. II was I'M
able to go with her on account Of being
detained here on matter Of business
that needed my attention; so | went
with her as far as Chicago, saw her
safely on an overland train and then
came back. But before l left her |
looked up the porter and gave him half
of n So bill that | had torn in two, say
ing that my wife had the other half
and that he would get that at the end
of the journey If he would see that she
needed for nothing on the trip"
The porters eyes stuck out, and he
faithfully promised that my wife
would receive the best of care; so
came away feeling that she would not
lack for anything.
"When l returned home discovered
to my horror that had neglected to
give my wife the other half of the bill.
Today / received letter from her re-
minding me of that fact and saying
that she had torn dollar bill in two
and given it to the porter.
Somewhere along the line there
must be wild eyed darby with the
halves of two worthless bills in his
possession and firm conviction that
he has been worked by some sort of q
new flimflam game.

gave that porter half instead of the
whole Of that 81 bill."-Detroit Free
