Table and Kitchen.


From our German cooks we may obtain
great variety of recipes for desserts made
in the form of cakes and thin, light breads
The cakes very nearly resemble our pam
cakes and are usually of goodly size, so
that one is sufficient for each serving, The
batter is made of eggs and flour, cooked in
a hot pan and transferred to the oven to be
finished. They are served with powdered
sugar and quarters of lemon, or are spread
with preserved fruit before they are put
into the oven and glazed.
German Pancake.
Sift and then weigh half a pound of flour
Beat three good-sized eggs until light, make
a well in the center of the flour and gradu-
ally work the eggs into flour until you have
a smooth batter free from Jumps. Add
tablespoonful of powdered sugar and grad
ually half a pint of cold milk. Beat the
batter again until very smooth and light
Heat a frying pan and when 1t is hot brush
it well with melted butter and pour in the
batter Cover with pint of preserved
pineapple or preserved apples and set in
hot oven for twelve or fifteen minutes, or
until the batter is thoroughly cooked
through under the fruit Then slide it care
fully out of the pan on to hot plate. S1ft
powdered sugar over ii and serve at once.
Rolled Pancakes.
Separate four eggs, beat the yolks until
light, add one and a half cupfuls of milk,
measure one cup of sifted flour and sift
with half teaspoonful of salt; add the
eggs and milk to flour and beat until
smooth. Beat the whites of the eggs to
stiff froth and stir slowly into the mixture.
Put tablespoonful of butter in a frying
pan and when hot pour in enough batter to
cover bottom of the pan. Bake delicate
brown on under side and then turn and
brown on the other side. When done spread
with marmalade or fruit jam and roll up
quickly. Serve at once.

Peach Cake.
American Pineapple Cake.

This makes a delicious summer dessert
For the cake part beat three eggs without
separating until very light and foamy Add
1l2 cups of sugar and juice of half a lemon
and beat again until it is a foamy mass
Then beat In scant cup of cold water
mot ice-eoid)e measure two cups of sifted
flour. add two teaspoonfuls of baking DOW
der and s1ft again. Add this to cake mix
ture and beat until the batter is very
smooth Spread the batter in two iayer
cake tins and bake in a rather SLOW even
Tor at least twenty-five minutes. 1t must
be thoroughly done, but not baked too dry

" poor but worthy women and

such as skinning tomatoes, peel. i.

Now, | would like 10 ask il any
one can give a good reason why
we should send our money TO Bal

or TO California for our pears, or to
New England, where their soil is
too poor to hold up a fence poet,
for canned corn? Or to New Jer-

millions Of acres of AZ fertile soil as

not of the kind that finches.
I've come on a queer enough err
rand, Elsie," he began.
"Yes?" she said in a questioning
tone.
Eyes! But it's no use beating about
the bush; it's best to be honest and
true, isn't it?"
"Of course it Is" She was very
much flushed and puzzled, too, but as
yet she had no idea Of his meaning.
TYou must know as well as l do.

step nearer to her or even to take her
hand, that I've cared for Dorothy

cried.
But you wanted to keep it dark, my
dear" Barbara reminded her.
Eyes: but 1t doesn't matter so much

piled. And, anyway. Esther will be
here, and Esther will be able to ward

What would be the good?" Bar
bara asked. You told him you were

he believed me-" Dorothy returned.
Then just let him come here and
try 1t on" cried Barbara valiantly,
and really as she stood there, a stout
and comfortable figure with her arms
akimbo, she looked more than a match
for any ordinary man, and nobody
would have believed, except such as
knew her well. how utterly her courage
always deserted her at a critical mo-
ment. "Let him try 1t on, that's all.
/ can give him a bit of information
he won't find very much to his liking
Il can tell his high and m%ightiness
that / see you married with my own
eyes,"

believed that Dorothy was married
she was right enough there. Still, he
had realized at last that she was not
for him, and that afternoon, whilst he
was idly turning owe the papers in
the reading-room of the hotel, and
wishing himself with all his heart
down at Holroyd, it suddenly occurred
to him that If Dorothy really was mar
ried, he would be able to get evidence
of the fact by walking down the street
and spending an hour and half a crown
at Somerset House.
And there, sure enough, he found the
record that was the ~death-blow of his
last little feeble hope-the record OF
the marriage between Richard Harris,
bachelor, and Dorothy Strobe, spinster,
bearing date now a little more than
nine months old.

vid to himself between his teeth. then

Then he put the great book back up
on the table. and strobe out along the
empty echoing corridors and across the
street. After a moments hesitation,
caused by the noise and throng of the
street, he made up his mind.
Hang it all, what's the good Of
stopping here? I'll go back home; |
shan't feel 1t so badly there"

Meantime | must confess that Dor

was accustomed to call "a boiling pas

ing across the little hall when she let
herself in at the front door. Miss Dor
othy-my dear, what is it?" the old
servant cried, iier heart jumping fairly
into her mouth as a dreadfuf idea
flashed into her mind that the young
mistress hour had come.

shaking with passion. II take back

But you were all right, and | take back

Barbara drew her into the pretty
drawing 'Sit down, my dear
young mistress" she said. tenderly,
and tell me all about it," :.
So Dorothy sat down on the sofa and
told Barbara everything. about her
meeting with David-what he had said
and what she had said; what he had
looked and what she had felt; how he
had turned old Isaac out of his place
and had put a grand new-fangled gar
dener TO be Isaac's master at the Hall;
and finally. how he had asked her TO-
go back and the past would be for
gotten. and he had insinuated-nay,
had told her plainly-but, no. Dor
othy's composure did not hold out long
enough for her to tell that part of her
story, for when she reached that point
she gave way and broke down into vio-
lent sobbing.
Barbara sat down beside her and
took her into her arms, 81 that she
might lay her head upon the old ser

ache away.

And the day following that David
Stevenson ordered his horse and rode
away from Holroyd through Grave
leigh and past the old Hall to a large
and prosperous-looking farm. about a
mile beyond the house where Dorothy's
old friend, Lady Jane Sturt, lived. He

horse into the care OF a man who

II believe she is, sir" the man re-

they'll tell you for certain"
A n~ice-looking country girl in a neat
apron and cap came to the door.
Yes, Miss Elsie was at home, the mis-
tress had gone into Dovecourt. Would
Mr.. Stevenson come this way?
He followed her into q pretty enough
sitting-room, though 1t had but few of
the little touches which had made Miss
Dimsdale's drawing-room so pretty and
so restful. There were shades over
wax flowers, and a plaster OF Paris
vase containing ONE artificial orange
blossoms, which had once adorned the
wedding AXE of the married daughter
OF the house, and there were white
crochet-work rags over some of the
chairs, and others with fearful and
wonderful designs In crewels tied up
with its bits of g~ay-colored ribbons.
Yes, it was pretty enough, but not
bearable to him after the quaint and
dignified air which had pervaded ev-

lived.
