Clear Soup.

Take three pints of well-favOred
stock. remove all the fat and wash
the surface with a cloth dipped in boil
ing water and wrung out. Put the
stock into a stewpan with half a
pound of lean beef, shredded finely, an
onion, carrot, small turnip and the
whites and crushed shells of two eggs.
Whisk over the fire till just on the
point of boiling, remove the scum, and
let the soup boil, the meat, etc, form
ing a crust on the top. Set aside on the
stove till the crust cracks, showing the
soup below; then pour all the contents
through clean, thick cloth that has
been well rinsed in boiling water, if
necessary, pouring the soup second
time carefully through it, Return the
clear soup to a clean stewpan, with
seasoning of salt and pepper add u
tiny lump of sugar when it boils up.
Some prettily cut vegetables which

There are hundreds of cloth-weaving
factories in the county of Yorkshire.
England, and many tons of soap are
used yearly for securing the wool be-
fore it is spun. Soap, of course, makes
soapsuds and runs away into the
drains, unless there is reason for
saving it. The Yorkshire weavers
had no such reason, and thought that
it had done all that was possible for
soap to do when it had washed their
wool. But soap is made of fat and al.
kali, and is good for something after
it has been dissolved. One day a
French chemist heard about the great
quantities of suds which the Yorkshire
men allowed to run out to sea and
came over into that part of the world
to investigate. After studying the mat.
ter thoroughly he went TO the factories
and contracted for all the soapsuds he
could get-all there We're, you may be
sure, for the weavers thought him
crazy and fastened to sign the papers
ere he should change his mood. The
y
TEN of pipes in each mill, and when
the tanks were nearly filed the chem
ist would come around turn certain
amount of acid into each tank and
wait. Presently the fat which had
been used in the soap would begin to
separate and rise to the surface, and
when it was all floating on top the
Frenchman drew the water away from
beneath and carted the product to u
factory of his own. Here it was melt
ed, and with very little trouble made
over into lubrcating oil for the very
machinery that had been the cause os
wasting it in the first place. 1t was so
excellent a quality of oil that machin-
lists came to prefer it to all others, and
the French chemist soon had an envi-
able fortune as his reward for robbiug
the hungry sea OF tons of valuable pro-
ducts that should never have been al.
lowed to run into it.

Laddie is a Scotch collie, and belongs
to our nearest neighbor. He is very
bright fellow, and we should have
been friends but for Laddie's ungov-
ernable antipathy for eats. We have
a big yellow tiger cat, which through
an accident has become crippled. He
spends most of his days lying in the
sunshine near the door, and the long
est journey that he ever undertakes ls
hobble to and from a nearby de.
serted barn, says contributor to Our
Animal Friends.
There was scarcely a day Of the
beautiful summer when Laddie did
not fall into disgrace by worrying Jim.
1t was never-ending amusement to
him to corner the plucky old cat. AZ
ter we had used every means in our
power to convert the handsome rogue.
we were obliged to forbid him the
yard. He seemed to realize he was "a
disgrace, and followed us about the
streets in the most abject humility.
AT last the winter came, and with It
one of the worst blizzards W. had ever
known-and Jim was missing. For
four days we called and dug and hunt
ed. 1t must be that Laddie had killed
him. As if to confirm our suspicious,
Laddie became even more desirous
than usual to attract our attention. AZ
last, at the close of the fifth day, we
heard a whining and scratching at the
front door. We opened it, and there
stood Laddle with our Jim in his
mouth-Jim, very angry and fright
ened, and half frozen.
The next morning we found that the
dog must have seen Jim 90 under Il
woodshed, some distance away, where
he was literally showed in. After
trying in vain to get our attention, he
had dug Jim out through Il drift six
feet high, and brought him to us in
triumph, an unwilling and unthankful
peace offering. OF course we forgave
Laddie for his former misbehavior,
and we never had any more trouble
with him for worrying Jim. Laddie
is one of our most welcome guests, but
it seems to be n matter Of sorrow t.
his canine heart that Jim still treats
him with suspicion, and, at best, with
forced politeness.

CUPlD'S DEFENSE.

They call me a poacher, an outlaw,
| hunt out of season, they say,
But / note. Just the same,
Though | caution my game,
That it seldom gets out Of my way.
They say I am cruel to maidens
For planting my shafts in their hearts,
That so? Well, it's strange
That they will get in range,
So many fair breasts, of my darts.
They cry that my arrows are cruel,
Productive of exquisite pain.
Then it's queer what lot
OF poor hearts, one time shot.
Hover round me again and again!

In the future, it is not unlikely that
riders of motor machines on indoor
tracks will be arrayed in foot ball
suits. The motor team of the future
will have head-pieces, thickly padded
suits, with particularly heavy padding
at the knees and elbows. Even nose
pieces will be worn. In the falls men
cut their heads so that stitches have
to be taken; they skin their shoulders
and elbows, throw their fingers out of
joint and injure themselves in a dozen
different ways. The padded suits will
prevent all this.
