ordered condition Whole milk should not
be added TO the bouillon. as the cream IS
too rich. when cream is used for the SICK,
only a small quantity OF whipped cream
should be placed on top OF the bouillon
when readw to serve. For the aged or
those who suffer only from a general state
OF debility the cream is a valuable addition.
The prepared bouillon, be it remembered,
is very concentrated in form and must be
considerably diluted with either water or
milk.
For the use in sickness when a con-
densed but easily digested form OF nourish-
ment is desired. the following preparation
used by the New York nurses IS to be
highly recommended: Two ounces OF the
prepared bouillon, three ounces OF milk;

Present Day English NoveIIsts Almost

Present Day English NoveIIsts Almost
Unknown Among the French.
In France. where literary fame is
held In high esteem, many of the most
successful Of the present day English
novelties are almost entirely unknown.
Flammarion, the Partisan publisher
and bookseller, says that Marie Cor
ELL. Hall Caine and S. R. Crockett ere
are hardly even names to him. The
French writer's with the greatest
vogue just now, such as Pierre Louys,
the author Of LES Aventures du Rol
Pausole," now in its sixteenth thou
sand; Jean Lombard, the author Of
"Byzance," and Michael Corday, whose
novel Venus GU les dieux Risques"
has been one of the most discussed
books of the year, are unknown out
side OF France. Alexandra Dumas
pere still holds the suffrages of the
French, and thousands OF his books
sell every year. 1t would be difficult
to arrive at any exact information, but
1t would seem likely that, reckoning
the immense sale Of Dumas in En-
gland, America and the Continent out
side France, he must be read more
than any author who ever wrote.
English novels are mostly known to
the French public in cheap editions
Dickens and Scott are the two most
popular writers, and various book
sellers differ as to which Is most popu-
lar. Dickens, of course, suffers most
in translation, and his humor and his
characters are SO absolutely Cock
ney" that it is difficult to understand
how French readers comprehend him
at all. The French novelist usually
receives satisfactory financial results
for his work. Nearly every French
newspaper publishes serial story, and
almost every story-good, bad or in
different-first sees the light in this
way. The prices vary, but as the
feuilleton is by far the most important
part of the average newspaper, papers

HE BAFrLEp THE RAIDERS.

The success of a raid on an alleged
gambling house in a Massachusetts
town was foiled by the presence Of
mind of an attendant of the place, who
swallowed the dice. OF course this
clever trick wouldn't work in some
gambling places. Even a Massachu-
sets throat would scarcely be able to
worry down the paraphernalia of a
fully equipped establishment. But it
was a winner on the occasion named.
The bones clicked against the teeth
of the attendant, there was gulp and
a wriggle, and the laws myrmidons
were baffied! The attendant might
have added as he tossed the cubes OF
chance across his tongue that the die
is cast, but being entirely unfamiliar
with classic lore, he merely remarked
with skillfully disguised wink that
he didn't know nothin' about no dice
nohow.
And as the state constable had nc
warrant which authorized him to raid
the attendants midst, he turned away
leaving the swallower in the throes oil
fit of laughter that made the dice
rattle at every throe.-Cleveland Plain
