A NEW PIECRUST.
Directions for Preparing nm Excel
lent Pastry for SuMmer
Fruits.

A French brioche crust is hardly
known in this country. 1t is an eX-
cellent crust for fruit pies in sum-
.ner, says the New York Tribune.
Sift half pound of flour and set
apart one-quarter Of it, which is
about one-half cup, measured
scant. Dissolve a quarter of a yeast
cake in two tablespoonfuls of luke
warm water and add little more
water, enough to mix in the half cup
of sifted flour. Work the mixture
well and set 1t in a covered bowl in
a warm place. When this sponge has
risen until it is little more than
double in volume its original bulk
make second paste as follows with
the remainder of the flour:
Add a saltspoonful of sugar and
one of salt, with a tablespoonful of
water to dissolve them. and stir them
in the center of the flour. Add now
six rounded tablespoonfuls of but
ter and two eggs, and beat the mass
well together, then add a third egg.
When this is well mixed in add the
sponge and beat the two thorough.
ly together. 1t is a very stiff paste.
and it must cleave to the sides of the
bowl it is beaten in before 1t is
ready to set away to become light.
Cover it closely. Put it in a warm
place and let it stand at least four
hours. Then turn it out, roll it and
fold it over as you do pastry, four
times--that Is, roll it eat. turn it in
envelopewise, fold it over and roll
it out again four times. Let the
pastry rise in warm place again for
two hours, then roll it out, fold it
over again twice and this time set
it away in cold place until you are
ready to use It. This makes deli.
cious breakfast cakes rolled out in
rings or in biscuit form and baked
in a hot oven. For pastry roll it
out as you do puff paste, dredging on
as little flour as possible, and line
and cover fruit pies with it.

DIDN'T KNOW THE OLD MAN.
Sen with Fighting Dog Found Out
His Father Was = Game
sport After All,

"Wabs" was home for the sum-
mer after his second year at college.
He brought Rab, the fraternity dog,
with him because there was no place
for the latter in the little college
town when all the frat" boys were
away, says the Chicago Chronicle.
Rab was a white bull terrier that
thought it was his inalienable right
to destroy the peace and happiness
of other dogs. If he could not fight
he was unhappy, and his face bore
the scars of numerous encounters.
He had licked every dog in his col.
lege town and he had not been in
Chicago long before all the neigh
bofs who owned dogs were threaten
ing to kill him on sight.
'Wabs'" father did not take kind.
ly to the dog. He was man of
peaceful disposition and wanted to
remain on good terms with his neigh
bors. He gave orders that Rab was
to be kept chained in the cellar and
he told "Wabs" that he would cut
off his allowance if he caught him
allowing the dog to fight.
But "Wabs" used to spirit Rab out
into the suburbs, where he would
match him against his kind He took
good care to keep the terrier out of
the sight of the "governor" after
such encounters, for Rab's appear
ance would be giveaway,
One Sunday morning "Wabs" was
standing in front of the house hold
ing Rab by the chain. A tough sport
came staggering down the street
leading big black dog with a saw
age eye. The sport accosted "Wabs."
mn bet my dawg can eat that eur
of yours up inside OF ten minutes:
''Wabs" was afraid his father
would hear and he tried to quiet the
gent"
"Ah, you're afraid" came from the
owner of the black dog. "I'il bet five
Ripper can lick him In eight min,
utes."
"I'll bet you $25 that he can't lick
him in an hour!" yelled "Wabs'
father from an upstairs window, and
as the tough one sneaked away the
governor" came out of the house
and told "Wabs" that, while he did
not approve of dog fights, ne was
never to allow any bluffs to go as
long as the money held out.

HOSPITAL ROOMS IN HOUSES.
Provision Should he Made for a Sat.
isfactOry Domestic Quar-
aAtine.

1t is not little surprising, in view
of the constant efforts of architects
to design and construct dwelling
houses that will have the maximum
of comfort, convenience and beauty,
with a minimum of cost, they have
failed to comprehend and hence to
provide for one of the most useful
and consequently most valuable fea-
lures of the modern houSe-namely,
that of a room which, when the
necessity arises, can be easily and
quickly converted into a hospital
room, says the Courier of Medicine.
The architects probably have not
had the desirability of this feature
impressed upon them, and the physi-
clan, therefore, will have to become
responsible for its Introduction. Such
room could be constructed with
but slight increase over the other
wise estimated cost of the dwelling
house, and its value would be meal
culable
The ceiling, walls, floor and furni-
ture should be so constructed that
they could be washed clean or other
wise rendered aseptic without injury,
and regard should be had for obtain
ing the best possible light, ventila-
ton, control of temperature, santa
ton, access and isolation, together
with accessibility to water and toilet
adjuncts. This room should be one
, of the most pleasant in the entire
house, and need not be reserved for
use only in time of illness in the fam
lily; nevertheless, when occasion
arises it may within half an hour be
changed into a more or less complete
hospital room.
The advantages of such room are
many and far reaching. Its useful
ness in isolating the child with sus-
picious tonsillar exudate from the
rest of the children IN the family will
more than repay its first cost; again,
where surgical interference is neces-
sary, particularly in emergency
cases, how vastly greater are the pa
TENTS chances for recovery than in
an extemporized operating room.
For the unfortunate members of
the family afflicted with pulmonary
tuberculosis, they would be placed
under the most favora bic surround
ings possible in the home, and would
at the same time be a1fording pro-
| lection to the rest of the family from
the contagion. Not the least of the
benefits of the hospital room would
be it's usefulness as an object lesson
to the laity in thus affording them a
practical demonstration Of the value
of isolation, of asepsis and antisep-
sis. and at the same time educating
them to a degree of self-relance
in the care and nursing of the
! sick

Spnin's Reorganization.

Things pertaining to the Spanish
army are still of some interest to the
average American. Gen. Linares-
who, by the way, is the same general
who surrendered to the American
forces at Santiago-has drawn up the
lew army organization bill for Spain.
In it he provides for a regular standing
army of 10000 men, which does not
include the carbineers or the civil
guard. This, of course, Is on a peace
footing. The cavalry will be entirely
reorganized, and the present as four
