Rev. Peterson of the NJ. E. church
seems to be taking a very active in
terest in the little parish at Rudolph.
A short time ago he proposed to raise
funds wit h which to renew the time
worn roof of the meeting house. A
leader to "push the thing" was elected
and soon $l3 was found forthcoming.
Mr.. Peterson told the people that he
would turn out himself and help
shingle the roof which he did with a
right good will. Friday in spite of
the deplorable weather he took his
elevated position and commenced pro-
ceedings. Before long a bran new roof
shielded the place of worship. This
is the kind of Christians we need. If
there were more professors who were
not SO particular about keeping their
hands clean this world would be much
better and the large majority of non
Christians conquered.

A groceryman caught a young fox,
saws a Philadelphia exchange. and no
knowing what else to do with it gave
# the run Of the cellar. 1t was drowsy
during the daytime, and although the
door was then always open It made nc
attempt to peer out into the world that
was only two bounds away. At night
the closed door prevented its exit.
one Saturday after busy day the
clerk forgot TO close the door and the
fox got out. over the grocery was al
apartment house, and somehow the
fox went up the stairs unObserved ant
out on the roof.
Then he looked down upon the busy
street below. and the noise and the
lights must have turned his brain. A
any rate. he leaped from the roof anC
landed on the pavement, and the poo

These delicious nuts are grown on
bushes planted in groups that are from
fifteen feet to twenty-five feet apart,

LIGHT and air. They thrive best in a

December Of slips from the mother

Little might it be thought that the
Emerald Ise was suspected of entomb-
ing any relics OF Bible times. But the
Imagination OF some one has been more
active and eccentric. In County
Meath there is a Royal Mound of the
Hill of Tara, on which, for 1000 years
che kings OF Ireland were crowned. A
gentleman named Glover, who has
obviously developed some strong symp-
toms Of British Israelism, was con-
vinced that the Ark of the Covenant
lay buried beneath the mound, and,
consequently, proceeded on a subter-
rAnean expedition in search of the lost
treasure. But, after expensive excava'
tons, which the landlord permitted
and the board of works had no legal
power to prevent, and after weeks Of
ruitless search, the fancied explorer
gave up his quest.

THE TEN EYCK SPEAKING.

A Criticism in the Alumni Weekly.
In a criticism of the recent Ten Eyck
Prize speaking published in the Alumni
Weekly appears the following:
IA piece of excellent literary quality,
but not at all an grafton, has just won
the second highest prize given in Yale
for the best original public speaking.
The decision of the Judges on the Ten
Eyck speaking held in College street
hall April 5, gave the first prize to Ar
thur Huntington Gleason Of South
Norwalk, Conn, for his piece on Notre
Dame de Paris
This mas, not for the first time, rails
ed the question: What is the prize CIV
en- fer, and what is Yale trying to de-
velope in these public speaking con-
tests? Mr. Gleason's essay was a piece
of such quality, and he had such dis
tinction in winning the prize, that the
writer feels no hesitation in discussing
the incident; indeed 1t is hard to see
why there should be any hesitation in
criticism of public speakers than in
a. criticism Of rowers or football play
ers.
when the crowd went out of Col
lege street hall-a little better crowd
by the way, than there has usually been
at Ten Eyck speaking In recent years
and making a much better impression
on College street hall than the few score
used to in Battell chapel-the average
Judgment was. that the prize lay be-

GREEN PEAS.

Green peas are among our most de-
licious vegetables, yet until recently
we have not raised as choice varieties
of this vegetable in this country as they
do in France. Today it is admitted
that our petit pois will rival any peas
raised in France. The mistake gener-
ally made in cooking peas is to cook
them in too much water and too long.
They should be steamed rather than
boiled. Keep them covered closely
while they are cooking, and put only
enough water over them to prevent
them from burning. Add teaspoon
full of butter to assist in preventing the
water "boiling dry" off the peas, and
then scorching when they are boiled.
Tender young peas should not be cook
ed longer than fifteen minutes after the
water on them bOils. In this country
we generally prefer to serve green peas
simply with a seasoning of salt and pep.
per and butter, if no butter was added
when they were boiled. The water in
which peas are cooked, if any is left
when they are done, is served with
them.-lFor S. L. S.
