At last Grace church, with its clean
light stone, Is reached and the green
grass and shrubbery in front Of the
interesting looking Gothic rectory. A
short distance below the bend all the
stores were wholesale. Now they are
becoming solidly retail. Instead Of
buyers the people along the street are
mostly shoppers. Down there were
very few women; up here are very few
men.
This is especially noticeable when
Union square is reached, with cable
cars Changing around Dead Mans
curve, in front of Lafayette's statue.
Here, down Fourteenth street, may be
seen shops and shoppers of the most
virulent type; windows which draw
women's heads around whether they
want to look or not, causing them to
run you down and making them deaf
to your apologies for it; big dry goods
stores and small millinery shops, gen.
eral stores and department stores and
the places where the sidewalks are
crowded with what is known to the
trade as Louis Fourteenth street fur
niture." All this accounts for there
being more restaurants now and diff
ferent smells and another feeling In
the air.-Scribner's.

MAYONNAlSE DRESSING.
How TO Make This Necessary COM
ponent of the Salad.

ponent of the Salad.
The most important element in the
dressing of salad is the oil. And re-
member there is no economy in spelling
your salad by using oil Of poor quality.
Although dinner may be perfect in
every other detail, the poor quality Of
the salad will be the only part Of it re-
membered or commented upon. To
insure success in your undertaking you
must be sure that everything needed
is thoroughly chilled before beginning
the work-the oil, plate, eggs and even
the fork.
The uncertainty and much Of the la
Dor are lessened by using mayonnaise
mixer. But a soup plate and silver or
wooden salad fork will answer. I'm
less you intend making pint Of dress
ing use but one egg. Separate the yolk
very carefully from the white, drop
the yolk into the soup plate and stir
rapidly with the fork until the yolk is
broken and well mixed.
Now add the oil, drop by drop at first,
being careful to stir always in the same
direction. If your plate and the oil are
perfectly cold, the mixture will soon
begin to thicken. Now add few drops
Of tarragon vinegar or lemon juice;
then add more oil, and as the emulsion
becomes thick you can add the oil fast
er, in slow, steady stream. Always
stirring, not beating, continue to add
the acid, little at time and just
enough to keep the dressing from sep
arating. Continue in this manner I'M
til you have used half a pint Of oil.
Season with salt and cayenne and give
a good, vigorous stirring. When fin
ished, the mayonnaise should be like
thick, smooth jelly. A perfect dressing
must not be too acid, as that destroys
the delicate flavor of the olive oil.

How to Use Bits of Soap.

Small pieces Of soap that accumulate
in the soap dish may be used in either
one Of two ways. Some housekeepers
make what they call soap bags, put
ting all the small odds and ends into
little bags made of old toweling. The
bag may then be used like cake Of
soap Another good method Of saving
the bits is to shave them up and put
them into twice their measure of boil
ing water. When the soap is dissolved,
powdered oatmeal, sufficient to make a
stiff batter, is added. The mixture is
turned into molds and, when dry,
makes an excellent soap for the skin.

of pure wantonness; which kicks in sea-
son and out of season, at everything or
at nothing as the case may be. The
term kicker scarcely needs definition.
We know exactly what it means, as
we'll as we know the chronic fault-fnder
it designates.
THE RISE OF THE KICKER.
Any one who cares to trace the rise of
the kicker will find that he keeps pace
with the prevalent American disease,
dyspepsia. All kickers may not be
dyspeptics, but all dyspeptics are surely
kickers. They are everlasting fault
finders. Nothing goes right for them
il the family or in business. There is
always a dead fly in their ointment. It
is a miserable condition for the dyspep-
tic and his friends. He really can't help
himself. His nerves are strained to the
limit of endurance. His ears are like
megaphones magnifying every little
sound to the shock of thunder. His
eyes lose sense of perspective and he
sees mole-hills as mountains. He is
suspicious, jealous, unreasonable and
obstinate; and all these things are only
symptoms of the disease which is starv-
ing and weakening the entire nervous
system and reaching out toward heart,
liver, lungs, kidneys and other organs.
WHAT CAN BE DONE FOR HIM?
What can be done for the victim of
dyspepsiaf
He can be cured. He can be given a
new start in life. He can be made the
amiable, companionable man he was of
old. He can once more eat with ap-
petite and enjoyment, work with energy,
and sleep the night through in sound,
dreamless slumber.
This is not mere empty claim un-
supported by facts. The statement that
the dyspeptic can be cured is made on
the authority of thousands of men and
women, who have been entirely cured
