Simple Cake Baking Pan "a Gold
Mine to a Country Woman.

Small and seemingly unimportant con-
trivances are frequently the means OF
starting their inventors on the high road
to fame or fortune. There are Few
clever women who have wooed and won
affluence by the exercise OF their talent
for ingenuity in little matters. One or
these quiet little women has within the
past six years made fortune from SELL
Ing cake. OF course, 1t Is homemade
cake, and, Furthermore. the baker clings
to certain varieties In the preparation
of which she is particularly skilled. She
is country-bred woman and lived In a
little village in New York State until
seven Or eight years ago. She was
known as a good cook in the district
where it Is considered almost disgrace
for a housewife not to be good cook
Her speciality was cake and as she 10
endowed with more than average allot-
ment of intelligence and not a little talent
of invention, she devised cake tin that
was an improvement over anything that
had been produced before In the vicinity.
She was shrewd enough to patent her
invention. then she set about getting her
patent before the public.
Her husband came to her assistance
here and a trial was made with the VII
lage folk. The new cake tin took. Then
the large towns in lIe vicinity were tried,
with an encouraging degree of success,
and the county fairs gave another open
ing After a year or so the woman was
advised to go to New York. and luckily
secured a good opening. She has been
there ever since. Just making and selling
cakes and exploiting that patented tin.

ELITE VAUDEVILLE,

There was not a single feature or quail
ty in the splendid vaudeville performance
given by Professor Weissner last even
ing at the Montgomery Theatre In which
could be detected the stamp of the
amateur. From the gorgeously attired
Lilliputians who went with measured
tread through the stately minuett to the
men who performed special acts as
acrobats, singers OF dancers and the
young women who delighted the audience
with their numbers. all performed
under Professor Weissner's wonderful
tuition and management as professionals.
The opening numbers with solos by
Mr.. AL A. Reynolds, and Miss Clara
Greil and a chorus of thirty-six voices
went with the picturesque poses and
musical strength of the professional stage

carried a dainty parasol Of white with
pink roses and the chorus girls with red
and white costumes made a brilliant set
ting. In the "Pan-dyne Dance" and

dancing, which captured the audience by
her enticing grace and beauty in a strik-
ing costume Of pink and black with pic
