THE LARGEST PIE.

Probably the biggest pie ever baked
was the big feature at reception to
Artie Phillips, member of the
Twentieth Kansas Regiment, on his
return to his home in Mulvane. This
soldier boy, in one of his letters from
Manila, said he would give four years
of his life for one of those apple pies
such as his mother used to make. At
the reception rendered him by the peo-
pie of Mulvane he was presented with
4 pie measuring feet one way by 2
feet the other. In the pie were 215
bushels of apples, 10 pounds of flour,
10 pounds of sugar. 6 pounds of lard.
2 pounds of butter and a commensu-
rate amount of other truck which goes
in this kind of pastry. The pie was
cut and served, and it is said that lit

A PRACTICAL ACCOMPLISHMENT
How the Richest Woman in the World
Regards a Business Training.

When 1 say that all women should
have a business training, mean wo-
men of all classes-poor. middling
rich and well-to-do The assertion
does not apply merely to those whose
circumstances seem to indicate that
they may one day be compelled to
make their own way in the world
Every class of girl will make a better
and happier woman if she has a bust
ness education, whether her woman
hood sees her a maid, wife, mother or
widow. | have heard it stated that for
woman to get a business training
is to crush all the poetry out of her
life. This is sheer nonsense. A wo-
man with a knowledge of business APP
preciates music, painting and the
other finer things OF life just as
much as the woman who is ignorant of
all business matters; and the former
has the decided advantage, in that she
Is able to turn her knowledge of bust
ness into securing more opportunities
of seeing and approaching these fine
things. She can get more tickets to
concerts and art-galleries, she will
have more money to become the
possessor of more beautiful things
than woman without business train
ing. and a woman with a sure income
before her feels great deal more like
studying poetry than a woman who
is compelled to worry about her fu-
ture bread and butter l have been
business woman for fifty years, and
am just as fond of pictures and music
as any one of my age. A business
! training is but one more accomplish
ment added to the list which the
young woman of today is expected to
acquire, and it is absurd to say that
its possession will interfere with the
proper enjoyment of any of the other
accomplishments. Then every house
keeper is business woman, the de-
gree of her excellence as a house
keeper being the degree of the bust
ness training she was provided with
before she entered upon her domestic
duties. The successful and economi-
cal management of the house calls
for the same kind of ability and judg-
ment that is necessary TO the success

A FAIR sFoWAwAY.
Steals a Ride on Norge" to Join Hel
Lover.

A pretty little romance was re-
vealed when the steamer Norge of
the fhingvalla line arrived at New
York last Saturday On board was a
stowaway and of very unusual kind,
for the passenger was not only a
young woman, but pretty one as
wellI Being without means she was
detained at the barge office and was
also fined $40 for being a stowaway.
The girl was Olive Nelson and she did
not mind the detention at all, but
waited confidently on the future.
In time young man, who gave his
name as Andrew Gutterman, made his
appearance and demanded the release
of the fair Olive, as she was his be-
trothed. The board consented to a re-
lease on the condition that the fine
was paid and the marriage take place
at once
To this both parties joyfully as
scented. Olive had left her home
against her parents wishes, and hid
herself in a dark hole for week be-
cause she could not bear to be sep
arated from her lover. and the board
could never have imposed more de-
lightful punishment A messenger
went hurriedly for clergyman and it
was but the work of few moments to
make the pair supremacy happy.
