COOKBOOK cULLINGS.
W Variety of Dainties for the Table and How to Prepare
 Them.

When cake contains too much flour or has baked too fast it will sink from the edges or rise up sharply with 8 crack in the middle. If cake has a coarse grain it was not beaten enough or the oven was too slow.
 If you desire nice lemon cakes, take a coffeecupful sugar, two-thirds tea cupful butter, half teaspoonful soda dissolved in tablespoonful hot water, and flour enough to roll thin; flavor highly with grated lemon peel or ex- tract.
 For yellow cream sauce beat the yolks of three eggs until thick; add three tablespoonfuls milk and three quarters cup sugar; cook in double boiler, stirring until boiling; remove from fire and add tablespoon vanilla.
 Everyone likes puffs. Mix cupfu1 of milk with two well-beaten eggs, tablespoonful flour, four tablespoon fu1s sugar, two of buttep and the grated rind of lemon. Beat five minutes and bake quickly in well-but- tered saucers.
 Fish which are best suited for broil- ing. when split open are mackerel, bluefish, shad, young cod, trout and whitefish. Smelts, perch and small trout may be broiled whole, while hali- but, salmon and swordfish broil we'll in steaks. Cod, haddock, whitefish, shad, bass, small salmon and blue fish may be baked whole, while the best fish for boiling are small whole cod, haddock and thick pieces of salm- on ha1ih1f and SUvor0fiSh
 Baked omelette: Put one pint of milk in the double boiler; melt half tablespoonful of butter, add half level tablespoonful of four; when the milk is scalding hot add the butter and flour and stir until boiling and the milk thickened little; pour this into dish and when quite cool add the. yolks of two eggs beaten, then add the whites of the eggs beaten stiff and dry; bake in a moderate oven until firm in the center, about 20 minutes; serve as an egg dish or with broiled steak and chops.

QUEENS. NOT CROWNED.
Some Royaa Consorts Who Were Noe Included fn the Coronation
 with Their Kings.

As a rule, most English queens have been solemnly crowned, whether they reigned in their own right or as wives of royal husbands. To this rule, how ever, there are exceptions, says 8 writer for the Philadelphia Times. The first was Margaret of France, the young, plain, amiable second wife of Edward I. He had spent so much money in conquering Wales and in try ing to conquer Scotland that he could not afford the expense of coronation for his girl bride, and she had to do without the splendors of the pageant.
 King Henry VIII. took care that An nie Boleyn should be crowned with extreme magnifcence. He desired to show the world how much he loved her, and how very much he defed the bishop of Rome. The four wives who succeed ed her were never crowned at all. For one thing, money ran short, and, for another, there may have lurked, even in his masterful mind, sense of the ''fitness of things" which may have caused him to shrink from publicly crowning so many ladies in such very rapid succession. At any rate, the be- loved Jane Seymour, the despised Anne of Gloves, the girlish Catharine Howard and the wary Catharine Parr were never consecrated in public as queen consorts of England.
 Henrietta Maria, wife of Charles T., refused to be crowned. She was young, she was pretty, she was 8 French princess, and she declined to take part in state function which would compel her to partake of the sacrament according to Church of England rites.
 Caroline of Brunswick is the last and most remarkable instance of the uncrowned English queens.
 Though George ". had been forced from popular indignation to give up the bill of pains and penalties against her, nothing would induce him to let her share his coronation. She was not allowed to be present in Vest minister Abbey at all. Repulsed from all the entrances, she returned to her home to die within three weeks of vio- lent fever. brought on by months of fearful excitement

is a most thrilling adventure. The hero of the story is strapped 8to a horse, which, after having been lashed into fury, is set at liberty. For the sake of a woman an Arab rides after to rescue him, and the rescue with the horses galIoping side by side is shown very effectively. Then in addition to these hair-raising situations, there is one of the best troupes of Arabian ath- letes ever seen here. Atmosphere is added by the Oriental dancers. There is massive and adequate scenery for the production, and it is well acted for meIodrama of the kind. The company is a large one, and is headed by Miss Neva Harrison, a we'll known actress. Prices are %, 35 and 50 cents.
 VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 The second vaudeville bill of the sea- son at the Jacques is having it's first presentation before a large audience this afternoon, and it is having fine success. The bill is practically the same as was offered last week in MT PoPs New Haven theater, and the best evidence of it's strength is the pro nOunced hit it made with the critical audiences in that house. Heading the bill is Miss Francesca Bedding, a noted comedienne, who with Arthur Larkin and several others offers a CO., medietta entitled, Her Friend From Texas" It is a very funny skit and is played with dash and fire by Miss Bedding and her associates. There is another neat comedy skit which has the significant appellation of 'sHow Dunn Done Dunn," and which is play ed by Dorothy Neville and John F. Webber, the latter of whom will be recalled as the northern general in
 Tactics" last season at the Jacques. Then in addition there are a number of other acts which combine novelty and comedy and which furnish rare enter tainment. Among those billed are the Wangdoodle Four, La Belle Blanche the 5Tanakas. Kelly and Reno, the Twins Mica, and Cooley and Burke Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents; matin- ees, 10 and 20 cents, all ladies 10.

ANNIE LAURIE'S GRAVE.
Scotch Girl for Whom the
Song Was Written.

Public notice has been directed in
England to the grave of Annie Laurie,
and the fact that it has been sadly
neglected and has remained all these
years without tombstone is attract
ing attention. The st. James Gazette
remarks: MANY people are under the
delusion that Annie Laurie was mere
ly Pigment OF the poets brain, but
this was not so. She was the daugh-
ter of Sir Robert Laurie, and was born
in Maxwelton house, which stands on
the 'braes' immortalized in the song.
Maxwelton house is still full of men,
cries of this winsome girl, and in the
long drawing-room there still hangs
her portrait. Her lover and the
author of the original song was young
Douglas, of England, but whether he,
as is common with lovers of poetic
temperament, did not press his suit
sufficiently, or whether she wished a
stabler husband, she gave her hand to
prosaic country laird, her cousin,
Mr.. Alexander Ferguson. They lived
the rest of their lives at Craigdarrocl1
house, five miles from Maxwelton,
and when she died Annie was buried
in the beautiful glen of the Cairn.
Lady Scott Spottiwoode, who died
early in the present year, was re-
sponsible for the modern version of
| the song.'

story of an Adventure of Artenus

An old friend of Artemus Ward
tells this anecdote in the Century:
Down on Canal street one day he
encountered 'Nlrs. Mulligan" over
her washtub, with her dress pinned
up about her waist, barefooted and
rubbing away upon her dashboard,
some dirty children playing about.
He accosted her with Good morn
ing" and inquired if she would like
to do his washing, and what was her
price.
She Strengthened up, put her fists
upon her hips and with a whitening
stare said: ''I'm not one of those
that does washing out of my own
family. You're fine gossoon.

Turning to the two boys, she said:

ducks eggs and pancakes sopped in
gravy. Now be off wild yees.''
And Artemus said he thought it was
time for him to go, lest she might
take fancy to wash his shirt with
out his taking it off.
The menu pleased him SO much that
he repeated it again and again, laugh
ing heartily at each repetition: "The
blue ducks eggs and pancakes sopped

we'll have a shuddering horror of
winning out of life by the consump-
tive's road, and welcome as mes
senger of Gods mercy an end swift
and measurably painless. But the in
stinct of self-preservation does not
take into account possible lack of
things worth living for. The plunge
into the icy waters of the Torolito
was sharply reactionary, and with
the gasping baptism the battle for
life was on.
Measured by agonizings it lasted
long. The water was no more than
waist-deep, but the might of a strong
man would have availed little against
the swift down-rush of the torrent in
its bowlder-studded bed. Twice and
yet once again, I made frenzied shift
to struggle to foot or knee in the
boiling raceway; ana at the final
emergence had a vanishing glimpse
of the embanllment of the Setter dam
with some one standing thereon. 1t

An Old Mnil-Box.

Among the treasures held by the
Antiquarian society in Portsmouth, N.
H., there is an old box the history of
which is given on label which it
bears. The box is of tin, painted green,
and shows signs of much usage, which
is not surprising when one considers
that it carried the United States mail
between Portsmouth and Boston dur
ing the revolution. 1t is about nine
inches long, four and half inches
wide and little more than that in
height. 1t was carried on horseback
by Capt. John Noble, otherwise known
as Deacon Noble, who was post-riGer
until 1888. This box contained all the
mail, and made every week one round
trip, occupying three days in the jour.
ney-from Portsmouth to Boston the
first of the week, and three days at
the end of the week from Boston to
Portsmouth. The distance between
the two places is little more than
so miles. The mail-box is somewhat
battered and the paint is faded and
scraped, but Their. is no doubt that
in case need arose the stout little box
could even now serve as it did in the
time of the country's peril.-Youth's
Companion.

A HOUSEHOLD HEROINE.

The woman behind the preserving pot
Is certainly deserving of fame;
She's not like the man behind the gun,
But she's getting there just the same.
The hero is trying to MAIN or kill,
And great Is his showing of nerve;
But praise also goes to the woman who
Is using her skill to preserve.
No time she Is wasting in drill or march
Which fit the brave soldier for strife;
She gathers round her what she'll attack,
And then gets to work with her knife.
She pares and she cores and she cuts with
care
Till fingers and muscles are sore;
Then hither and thither in other tasks
She's hurrying over the floor.
She CALAMITY stands at the firing line,
Unmindful of heat and toll;
All flushed is her face and her eyes are
strained
BY watching the things that there boil.
She spices and sweetens and stirs and
skins,
Till weary in arms, back and feet;
But bravely she stands till her work is
done,
With never thought of retreat.
She carefully gathers the stores of sweets
That she has so patiently made.
And soon the good things for the winter
feasts
In jars, cans and crooks are arrayed.
She thinks not of plaudits for triumph won
Yet, while she no laurels will claim,
The woman behind the preserving pot
Is certainly worthy of fame.

CHAPTER VII.

BACK TO THE EARTH AGAIN"
If the immortal soul of man be a
conscious entity, as some assert,
what becomes of it in those lapses
of the realities when the wheels OF
the mental recording machinery
stop, and some buffet or bruise of
the body corporeal tears leaf out of
the book of time? For a certain
curious onlooker, whose queryings
sent him to plunge unwillingly into
the icy waters of the Torolitan Aver
nus, times clock stopped with a
glimpse of the dam, an outlined fig
ure of woman, and mighty din
ming of the flood in his ears. When
1T began to tick again, it was night,
and the point of view was the pill
low of bed in a strange room. A
lamp was burning on a small table
at the beds head, and the room ap-
peared as a half-story chamber in a
substantial log house, with the
rough rafters pitching low over the
bed.
A murmur of voices came from be-
low, and an intermittent clatter of
knives and forks on ironstone china.
Presently a chair complained in the
room beneath, and slow step
mounted the stair. I closed my eyes
YEARLY to open them when the
leisurely steps reached the bedside.
The man who stood over me was
tall lean, leathern-skinned; and with
no more heard than an Indian TT
he had not worn his hat at the sup
portable below, he had put it on to
come upstairs. He was in his shirt
sleeves, and his manner was of those
to whom coats are unmeaning luxu-
ries.
Mandy, she thort she hearn ye
stirrin,' he said, and his speech as
ISOLATED itself with my recollection
of the leisurely step on the stair.

I wagged my head on the pillow,
and asked the stereotyped question
of the lately resuscitated: "Where
am II"
"Ye're here" he replied, with a
simple directness which left nothing
to be desired. "Nan, she fished We
out n the creek, an we cyarr'd We up
to the house, 'mongst us, an we've
been here ever since"
"Nan?" I queried.
"Oomhoo; she's my daughter. She
was 'sooeyin'' the cow, an she saw
you foppin' round in the runaway

in to do, anyhow"
'Trying to get out, if ] remember
correctly. What is this for?" I put
my hand to the bandage on my head.

"Not much; but I'm as weak as a

"Naw; didn't say SO, but hit air.

pause.

had come; and a few minutes after
ward there was lighter step on the
stair and a tap at the half-open door,
said "Come," thinking it was the
