Fresh, crisp rolls may be prepared
daintily for luncheon by cutting them
in two lengthwise, taking out the soft
interior and filling them with mix
lures of various kinds. Hard-boiled
eggs, chopped and seasoned with just
enough French dressing to soften
them, are good for the purpose. An
other suggestion calls for chopped ap-
pies and nuts, with a little mayon-
nais2.
For sweet filings ripe, soft peaches,
cut up fine and sprinkled with little
powdered sugar, and, if they are to he
eaten at once, q spoonful of whipped
cream is used similarly. A combna-
ton Of jam with soft cream cheese is
liked by many persons.
In all things Of this kind care should
be taken to have them soft and moist
without being "mussy." The rolls, too.
should be small enough to be eaten
without awkwardness.
This idea can be utilized to vary
children's school luncheons, chopped
meats and other nutritious and appe-
tizing filings being used for the rolls.
Although it is nothing more than IA
sandwich, a little changed from its
ordinary form, its novelty will prove
attractive.

AT LAST.


When on my day of life the night is
falling,
And, in the winds from unsunned
spaces blown.
hear far voices out of darkness call
ing
My feet to paths unknown.
Thou who hast made my home of life so
pleasant,
Leave not its tenant when its walls
decay;
Love divine Helper ever present,
BE Thou my strength and stay
Be near me when all else is from me
drifting,
Earth, sky. homes picture days of
shade and shine
ana nc, kindly faces to my own uplifting
The love which answers mine
have but Thee, o Father Let Thy
Be with me then to comfort and up
hold:
No gate of pearl, no branch of palm, I
merit;
Nor street of shining gold.
Suffice it it, my good and i'll unreckened.
AND both forgiven through Thy abound
ing grace,
1 find myself by hands familiar beck
oned
'hto my Altlng place.
Some humble door among Thy many
mansions,
Some sheltering shade where sin and
striving cease
And flows forever through heavens green
expansions
The river of Thy peace.
There from the music round about me
stealing,
fain would learn the new and holy
song,
And find at last beneath Thy trees of
healing,
The life for which I long

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 a 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 q
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 weayers thought him
crazy and hastened to sign the papers
ere he should change his mood. The
suds were conducted to vats by sys.
TEN of pipes in each mill, and when
the tanks We're nearly filed the chem
ist would come around, turn n 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 lubricating oil for the very
machinery that had been the cause oe
wasting it in the first place. 1t was so
excellent Il quality of oil that machin-
lists came to prefer it to all others, and
the French chemist soon had an envl-
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.

citadel, I made a plan. 1t was simple
enough. 1t was to tell her that New
kirk was dead. That would leave the
field clear. In her moment of bereave-
ment l would naturally be the one
man to whom she would turn for con-
ISOLATION. The rest would be easy.
l broke the sad news to her one day
while we were strolling along the

Women are so much more c3nfiding

When l thought there was nothing
proper left for me to do but jump

Laddie is a Scotch collie, and belongs
to our nearest neighbor. He is a very
bright fellow, and we should have
been friends but for Laddie's ungov.
ernable antipathy for cats. We have
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 is
a hobble to and from nearby de-
serted barn, says a 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 a neverending 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 IA
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 whining and scratching at the
front door. We opened it, and there
stood Laddie 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 go under a
woodshed, some distance away, where
he was literally showed in. After
trying in vain to get our attention, he
had dug Jim out through a 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 matter of sorrow t.
his canine heart that Jim still treats
him with suspicion, and, at best, with
a forced politeness.
