He scratched round in the bag and
pulled out a letter, which he gravely
handed to her. Her full name was
written on it, and in the corner she rec

the prim, solid block of tightly pressed

rose, his eyes fixed on her with I'M

Probably the greatest profit ever en-
joyed by the Goverment as a result OF
the destruction Of money was in con-
nection with the fractional currency
or shinplasters issued during the Civil
War" says the Chicago Record ''The
total amount issued was 1868, 724 ,079,
Of which ST. $50, ,55s has never been pre-
sented for redemption. y large amount
has been preserved as eurios by col
lectors, and occasionally even now it is
offered for REDEEM ption. This was espe-
eially the case during the recent hard
times. People who had the old shin
plasters o. war times in their cabinets
and scrap books got hard Up and sent
them in for redemption"

When Not to Keep Books.

She decided that the only way to run
a house economically was to keep a set
of books, so she made all necessary
purchases, including a bottle of red
ink, and started in.
1t was a month later when her hus-
band asked her how she was getting
along.
"Splendidly," she replied.
''The system is success, then ~
ayes, indeed. Why, Fru sixty-six
dollars ahead already.D

Useful Hints.

a simple remedy for neuralgia is to
apply grated horse radish, prepared
the same as for table use, TO the temple
when the face or head is affected, or to
the wrist when the pain is in the arm
or shoulder.
Ia boiling meat for soup put cold
water to it and let it come slowly to a
simmer to extract the juice. If meat
is boiled for Itself alone, put it into
boiling water, which causes the outer
surface to contract, and the richness Of
the meat is retained within.
To make sealing-wax for fruit cans,
take eight ounces of rosin, two ounces
gum shelIac and halfounce of bees
wzx. Melt all together. This will
make quantity, and may be melted
for ase when wanted.
Tack brown papet should be laid
unoa carpets if the patent lining is
not 10 6e had. 1t saves wear and pre-
vents fac inroads of moth, which,
however, will seldom give trouble if
salt is sprinkled around the edges when
the carpet is laid.
Green corn and lima beans deterio-
rate more quickly than any other veg
etables; they should be spread out
singly oR the cool cellar floor as quick
ly as possible after they come from the
market.
Brazil nuts are the specially COM
mended flavor in two jeliies that come
to US from England. In one, slices of
pIums and bananas, with whole Tokay
or Malaga grapes, are pat in a mold
Into which has been poured a little
liquid orange jelly. Over this is graf
al the meat Of Brazil nuts and al
! rROnds. The mold is then filed with
moce of the orange jelly, and the final
lAyer of grated nuts added, before it is
yet away to harden.
The second jelly is heralded as some
hing absolutely new and delicious.
To a third of bottle of elaret and a

two tabIesPeOnsfuls of eurrant jelly,
with enough dissolved gelatine to stiff
fen it. In the centre of mold is piled
some whipped cream that las been
mixed with little sugar and a very
little Cognac. Over the whipped
cream is sprinkled Brazil nuts, chop
ped very fine, with, if desired, one or
two pistaehio nuts, also chopped al
most to powder. The jelly is then
poured in and the mold served as soon

A Home Where Ex-Convicts are Al
ways Welcome.

Out on the Western prairie where
the wind gets full sweep from the
west toward the smoke belt Of Chicago
stands stone front house which looks
singulariy out of place in its surround
iugs- 1t is Hope Hall and it is con-
Quoted by the Volunteers OF America.
Hope Hall is tbs idea Of Mrs. Maud
Booth, the good angel of the Nolun-
teers. IL Is home for ex-eonviets, to
put the matter very bluntly. For
long time Mrs Booth considered the
question of doing something tangible
10 aid the men who are turned out Of
the prisons Of the country, homeless
and ia many cases hopeless With the
prison taint upon them it is sometimes
almost impossible for them to keep
straight They must live, and living
is none too easy even for q man who
has never dome time' and whose
record can be traced by his employer TO
its beginnings. Cast thus upon an un-
friendly world, it is small wORder that
so many eonviets have records of two,
three or more eOnvictiOns-that they
drift back into the unlawful ways
which end only within the stone walls
of prison.
1t was these facts which beset the
mind of Mrs Booth when she sought
some method of assisting these men
whose ranks are being constantly aug
mented, and she determined that the
establishment of permanent homes
where the released eOnvicts could live
until they obtained fOothOld in life
again was the bestplan. The home To-
Gated on Austin boulevard is the third
Hope Halr' to be established by the
Volunteers in furtherance Of this plan,
the first one being in New York city,
where its exact location is kept secret
thai is, the Volunteers do not mark it
with signs as they do all of their other
establishments, nor have they per-
mitted the New York newspapers to
advertise its location.
Indeed, the address OF the Chicago
"HOpe Hair was jealously guarded
secret for long time, Mrs. Booth hav-
ing declared positively that no one
save those directly interested would
know where the home was to be es-
tablished, nor would its location be
made known by any signs after it was
in working order.

Hay is too valuable to sell, not that
it always brings high price in mark
ct, but because it contains more pro-
tein than other coarse foods and can be
converted into milk and meat to good
advantage. An excellent plan is to
use the hay in connection with fodder
or straw, adding linseed meal and
grain, which will make the ration
more valuable as whole.
