ENGLISH PHRASES TOO MUCH
French Woman Has Trouble In Making Her
self Understood.

A French woman living in Chicago
who has been in this country only
year has been having terrible strug-
gle with the English language. Very
often she is completely bewildered by
the variety of ways in which the same
idea may be expressed. but she is even
more perplexed by the variety of ideas
denoted by the same expression. She
has young woman friend in Paris
who is an expert milliner. The girl
in Paris is very anxious to come to
this country to try her fortune, and
also to be with her old friend. The
Chicago lady, erstwhile of France, is
extremely DESTROYS of doing what she
can for her friend and has been max
ing strenuous endeavors to secure her
a situation. A few days ago she went
to one Of the largest stores in Chicago
with a letter of introduction to one of
the proprietors. The lstter was pre-
sented and the proprietor, after read
ing the letter, asked what he could do
for madame.
~ haf," said she, Won leetle friend
in Paree, and she ees as mooch bettaire
as ees no millnaire in Che.kay-go. l
would wish she yos in zis lie prande
store"
Indeed, madam" replied the pro-
prietor. I should be very glad to give
your friend trial, but really we have
no room for her."
ooh. zot make no differen about re
room," interrupted madam, "she can
sleep wifi me-"
On another occasion the French
woman entered store to buy a pair
of street gloves. She approached the
counter and made known her vents as
best she could.
"What size do you wear?" asked the
clerk.
ooh, about half past five, guess"
was the response.

should be poured in very gradually
while the mixture is stirred quickly
with wooden spoon. A carefully
prepared sauce never requires to be
strained.
All pastry, and particularly puff
paste should be handled as little and
as lightly as possible, or it will be
heavy. When making a rich paste,
care should be taken to make the but
ter and the flour and water paste ex.
actly the same consistency before roll
ing them together. To do this the
butter should be wrung in cloth to
remove the moisture and then worked
in basin until it is sufficiently soft.
The success of all pastry depends to a
great extent on the temperature OF
the oven, which should be made very
hot.

Danter Turks In Cobwebs.

A scientist says there are microbes
in cobwebs. His observations on the
subject we're brought out by the fact
that q woman who had cut her head
and bound up the wound with cobwebl
to stop the bleeding was attacked with
lockjaw.
"There is no doubt" said the
scientist, "the woman was given the
lockjaw by the germs in the cobwebs
They stop bleeding because they are
soft and permit the blood to coagulate
about them, but their use is dangerous
as attested by this instance. Several
days ago 1 had occasion to look into
the matter of cobwebs and went to
my stable, where I procured a hand.
fu,. In these cobwebs I found sixty.
one different disease germs, among
them being a large number of the
germs of tetanus. Placing the cob
webs on q cut would be almost guar.
antee that the patient would develop
lockjaw. This is natural, for cobwebs
usually form in cellars or stables or
dark and dirty places where disease
germs are plentiful. They are light
and filmy and they catch the light
spores of the disease germs while
floating through the air and hold
them. Then when the webs are
placed on a wound the germs enter
right into the blood"
For the benefit of the anxious reader
it may be stated that the woman re-
covered.

USEFUL HINTS FOR COOKS.

To prevent stock which is intended
for clear soup from having . thick and
cloudy appearance it must be we'll
skinned as soon as it boils and as
long as the scum continues to rise.
A tumblerful OF cold water added to
the stock helps to bring the scum to
the surface and thus facilitates mat
tiers. Syrup made by boiling sugar
and water together should be skinned
in the same way, or it will not be clear
when finished.
When fish, outlets, potatoes, and in
fact anything which has been fried,
have moist and greasy appearance,
it is q proof that the fat in which
they were cooked had not reached the
correct temperature when they were
placed in it, and instead of the outside
hardening instantly the grease pene.
trates and makes whatever is being
fried sodden. Care should be taken to
use clean fat for anything which has
been egged and crumbed, or it will be
a bad color instead of clear golden
brown when done.
When boiled meat is hard and tough
the fault is due to allowing it to boil
rapidly instead of simmering after it
has once boiled up. Excepting in the
case of salt meat, it should on no &C.
count be put into cold water, as this
will draw the juices out of the meat
and leave it tasteless and sOdden.
To prevent either brown or white
sauces from being lumpy the flour
must be mixed to perfectly smooth
paste with the warm, melted butter
before the liquid is added, and this

Violate an Agreement.
Sarah Grand, the author of "The
Heavenly Twins" is not one of those
who believe that an engagement, fol
marriage once made should be kept al
any sacrifice. There can be no doubt
that it is sometimes justifiable to vio-
late the pledge given at betrothal, she
thinks, and it is especially the duty oil
a woman to refuse to be bound by such
a pledge when its fulfillment threatens
to bring unhappiness on the pair
should they marry. eat the same
time," she says, i do not think that
an engagement should be broken of
for any but the most serious reason
and believe the contempt we feel
and the stigma which attaches to the
man of many engagements and to the
girl who has broken off one after
another are the involuntary outcome
of a knowledge of character. We
know from experience that people o.
that kind, with no proper sense o.
responsibility, are mere froth on thu
surface of society, undesirable a!
acquaintance and not worth consider
ing as citizens.
"But if engagements are to b
irrevccable the chances of misery II
marriage would be double what they
are row, and, unhappily, they arr
only too numerous as it is. OF course
no honorable person will enter into al
engagement without the honest inten
ton of fulfilling it, and, therefore
when such people become engaged
and afterward break it off, it is prett,
certain to be for good and sufficient
reason.
Engagements are like marriage
in this, that once people stand in tina
relation to each other they have ,
certain license allowed them which
gives them opportunities of becoming
more intimately acquainted than wa
possible before, and of obtaining bet
ter knowledge OF each others charac
tiers. tempers, tastes and habits than
they could have done in ordinary
social intercourse"

Oanadfan Otter .o.. and Slides Down
 Hili Just for Fun
 It seems strange to think that an5 full grown, four-footed animal should indulge in play like child, and yet this is what the otter does. His amusement is tobagganing, and his playground is slope, covered with ice or snow, that goes down grade into pool of water. No little boy, with 3 new sled, ever enjoyed a coast down an lce-bound hill more than this beau uful creature from the frozen n .th The otter is quite large, sometimes weighing as much as 25 pounds. He resembles the seal and the mink, be- ing, however, of heavier build and fs both supple and strong. Living for the most part in water, he preys on Hsh, which his swimming and diving ability enables him to catch easily. The entrance to his home, which is a ourroW in the bank of a stream, is Snder the water. h the early spring when the fee begins to thaw, these animals start on their travels from one stream to another, sometimes spend- Ing months on the journey. If they happen to see an inviting hill by the wayslde they immediately stop their pilgrimage and prepare for some sport One of the number leaves the water and slowly climbs the slope, making smooth hollow in the ice with his wet body. When the slide is pre- pared. he lies fiat on his belly thrusts his nose forward, and turning his fore paws under his soft sides, goes sail Ing swiftly down. His speed steadily increases until he reaches the water. Silently he parts the surface and is lost from sight for a few seconds; then his head appears above the surface and you can hear him give a call which sounds like whistle. This is a sig. nal. The next otter assumes the posi- ron and shoots down to the bottom to join his companion, who has mean. while eraWled out on the ice. Then another whistle and the next in order slides and plunges, and the perform ance is kept up until each one has seT9Tal trips to his credit.-Exchang

She baa inhe-yed small farm. and as soon as she arrived at a marriageable age be- gan looking for husband to share her lot. She was quickly married, but the couple had hardly settled down to welded bliss when the husband died without having had a chance to begin to cultivate the farm Not intimidated by this, the widow married a second husband, who sowed the fields with grain. He likewise died. She tried a third, who reaped the grain, but death soon snatehed him away She then married fourth, who thrashed the grain. He also followed the fate of his predecessors. She then married fifth husband, with whom she enjoyed the produce of the farm. Tbe little woman had boldly married five men in the short space of eighteen months

An interesting and odd exhibit in the Paris exposition will be a hall de- voted to the hussars of the world. Paintings showing the great deeds of men of this arm of the service will form a large part of the exhibit. Ger many and Austria-Hungary will be represented particularly well. for the simple reason that the hussars of these two armies always have been men who did really wonderful acts of bravery and daring.~ Spain will have an inter- esting group, showing her famous Praicesa Hussars, and Italy will show Der Neapoa Bourbons.
