How to Make Muslin Toast.

Any rather stale bread that cuts into
firm slices answers for this delcacy.
The writer's first knowledge of this
was at a dinner party at which each
dish was perfect of its kind. When the
cheese was passed, with it came this
crisp, delicious toast. cooked at the mo-
ment of serving The slices were cut
literally ''as thin as wafer and
spread out to dry an hour or two be-
fore needed. They were finally spread
out on n hot tin pan, popped on the

was immensely attached to Wilkes, and
was also a strong sympatllizer with the
cause that Booth frantically espoused.

Clarke investing in the Strand Theatre,

fessional visit to America, but he had
become forgotten times had changed. his
style of acting was thing Of the past,
and he soon gave up his tour.
But the reason-as reason there GER

cial interests in this country, has never
been explained. No need of explana-

EDWIN BOOTHS ATTITUDE.
The attitude of Edwin Booth at the
time of the assassination of Lincoln was
that of man mortally terrified lest the
vengeance of the wrought public should
extend to every one who bore the name.
OF course there was no basis for this,
SO far as he was concerned. But at all
events he retired for a time. and his
friends were considerate enough to ap-
prove his action.
Let US look Edwin Booth fairly in
the face for the remainder of his life.
He was said to brood over his brother
never speak Of, would never play in
Washington, and grew morose, melan-
choly and prematurely aged. All very
natural.
But how about his sending monthly
rer1ittances to England all the balance
of his life? This he did.
To whom?
Hardly to the Clarkes, for they had
as much, If not more, money than he.
Then to whom? And why?
Edwin Booths l1abitual unhappiness,
his haggard face, his mania for reclu-
siveness. all made him appear like one
carrying a very Weighty secret.
EDWIN'S STRANGE CALLER.
A venerable cabman of Baltimore, who
proudly vaunts himself with having been
"a schoolmate of Edwin Booths and
Having always driven Ned" when he was
in his native city, has a story to re-
late:

was the last engagement he ever played
in Baltimore. I got him at Union Sta

Mr.. RYAN ON TOBACCO.
Says Alliance With British Trust Ia
Simply II Trade Agreement.

{ New York Herald-1st)
Thomas F. Ryan. one OF the directors OF
the American Tobacco Company. wht
went to England when the Imperial To.
bacco Company sieriaed a desire to treat
with the American corporation for trade
on the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse. Mr..
Ryan was somewhat averse to discussing
the result Of his trip until ne should havs
an opportunity to nceuaint himself with
the progress that had been made while
he was on the ocean. He admitted, how
ever, that his mission had been a conlpiets
success.
TT is true that an agreement has been
made with the English tobacco dealers.
said Mr. Ryan, talking while he was hav-
ing hi, baggage inspected on the pier
The basis of agreement is very simple.
The Imperial Tobacco Company will not
be intsrrered with in its home trade, and
It will not attempt to invade the American
field. It will also pool issues with tns

the business of the world outside of ths
United Kingdom, the United States, and

(New York Commercially
Most Of the macaroni that we eat here
in New York is supposed to be imported.
but the manufacture of this stuff has
already begun in this country, and many
OF the italian residents on the lower
West Side insist ON having the American
made article. Most of that manufactured
in New York city is sold at retail and
for immediate consumption. The Evening
Post has described an establishment of
THIS sort not far from the Catherine ferry.
The interior of this factory is a fac
si1aIe of those for which Italy is famous.
The rooms are so crowded with racks,
trays, boxes, and barrels, as to suggest
a cabinotnlaker's storehouse. Narrow al
leyways allow movement to the two
brothers who own the establishment and
their workmen. The arrangement is very
simple. The flour is bought by the barrel
and is stored in one room. In another
are the mixing troughs, where the dough
or paste is made. In a third are the
presses which force the dough through
perforated iron plates, making vern1l-
cclli, spaghetti, or macaroni according to
the size. as we'll as the dies which cut it
into alphabets, the forms Of animals, and
other patterns.
In these and other rooms are number

dough is dried, and boxes in which when

room, line OF men and women are
buying small lots for family use. Most
of these are very particular about their
purchases, but few. evidently very poor,
are haggling over the price of broken
macaroni and other forms Of injured
stock.
1t was difficult to make high grace
nacaroni at first in New York, owing to
the carelessness Of western millers in mix
ing various grades OF wheat. What is
needed for this purpose is good, hard
wheat, rich in gluten. The color does not

family are made Including its cousin, the

For richer variety eggs are added in
