Dates in the Oatmeal.

New York Evening Sun: There
are more ways than one Of treating
oatmeal. AS a p%orridge, it may be
varied by the addition of dates. The
dates should be washed and stoned
then added to the oatmeal just befors
serving. Do not allow it to cook after
the dates are put in; just let them get
heated.
Or, again, make four ounces of oat
meal into n paste, that is fairly stiff
with two ounces of butter, a little
salt and n gill of milk. Roll this out
three-quarters of an inch thick ant
cut into fingers. Heat n frying pan
lay the fingers in and bake them
turning them to cook each side. L
these are put into the oven they be
come like pie crust merely. Serv,
them. very hot and crisp.

lie Smok cs Rose Leaves.

indianapolis Press: Carl Fredericks,
who was the manager Of that most
popular of all Midway Plaisance at
fractions at the worlds fair, "Old vi
enna," and is now stationed in this
city as the agent of a brewing com
pany, is, perhaps, the only enthusiasts
tic pipe smoker in Indianapolis that
scorns using tobacco. Mr.. Fredcricks
is an epicure of the first rank when
it to smoking, rose leaves being
used altogether in the bowl of his
pipe. He says that smokers hat once
become accustomed to inhaling the
delicious smoke from burning rose
leaves always agree with the O~rientals
that Tobacco is not to he mentioned in
| the same breath with the leaves OF the
flower.
Mr.. Fredericks suggests that il the
young men of this country give up
smoking tobacco and use rose leaves
instead, it will solve the problem re.
garding the disposal Of the roses sent
to young women by their admirers
When the flowers become withered.
the fair ones that receive them can
gracefully return the compliment by
drying the leaves carefully and re,
turning them to the men to be used IL
their pipes. This is the plan that Mr.

Dinner has come TO an end. The men are
still dallying with their wine. The women
are assembled in the drawing-rOOm.
Olga, having drawn back the curtains
from the central window, is standing i'll its
em1rasure, looking out silently upon the

and, stepping into where Olga is, joins her
un,nvited.
