Black Dnys.

In the calendar of the nations there
are quite a number of "black" days.
"Black Monday" was April IA, 1860,
day so dark and cold that many of the
army of Edward Ill, king Of England,
which lay before the city of Paris,
were frozen to death An immense
bush fire occurred on "Black Thurs
day" in Australia, Feb. g. 1851. Two
events are commemorated by "Black
Friday" in England-Dec. G, 1865, when
the news reached England that the
pretender had arrived at Derby, and
May IL, 1866, when the failure of Over
land, Gurney & Co. brought on a most
disastrous panic. A panic in New
York occurred Sept. % 1869, which
was afterward known as "Black Fri
day" "Black Saturday" is the name
applied to Aug. 4, 1921, when n great
storm occurred at the time parliament
was sitting to enforce episcopacy upon
the people.
Advice as to Roasting n Turkey.
"Nilety-nine women out of every
hundred, niuaty-nine cooks out of ev-
cry hundred. will bake turkey with
the back to the PAN" said New Or
leans man who keeps in touch with the
kitchen, "and this is a mistake. A ia
nous French cook know never thinks
of baking turkey with the breast UP.
The breast is turned to the bottom of
the pan and instead of being dry and
tasteless when 1t is served is richly fla
vored and as sweet and juicy as one
would care to have it. You see, all the
fine fiavorlng of the turkey, the juices
of the dressing and all the daintier
touches flow down toward the breast
of the fowl, and when the white meat
is served you get the full benefit OF ev-
cry flavor added during the processes
Of preparing and baking the turkey, In
addition to the distinctive taste of the
fowl itself.
announcement and awkward! Not at
all. 1t Is just as easy to cook turkey
In this way as in any other way, and
the result is infinitely more satisfac-
tory. 1t is no trouble to arrange the
fowl in the pan. If you desire to place
the fowl on the table before carving 1t,
you will find that 1t will look quite as
well as 1t would If baked in the usual
way, and certainly it Will taste much
better than It would If you baked the
breast until 1t was dry and fiavorless."

GIuttonous Bass.
"Talk about sharks said an Orange
county lake fshcrman; II don't believe
they are in it for promiscuOus diet with
the black bass.
Il was fishing one day with Il very
large minnow on big hook. | had a
bite and hooked II bass. 1t was n big
one and gave me as pretty Il fight as
| ever saw till it broke the leader at
the point where it is attached to the
line and got away.
I'VE fished I'm other parts of the lake
after that and finally started to the
landing, the guide rowing while | skit-
tered with "a minnow. We were pass
ing close by the place where | had lost
the fish in the morning when | saw a
bass dart for my bait. | gave it time
to swallow and then struck. When |
got the fish into the boat, | saw Il
three foot leader sticking out Of its
mouth. II was the leader | had lost
in the morning When | cut the bass
open, there was the same big club IL
had taken from my line, and II came go
nearly filling the iish's nav that the
tail Of the last minuOw was sticking
out of tie mouth. There wasn't room
for it in the interior Of the ass."-New
