The Right Way to Boil Water.

A~Ae~A>
ITO boil water would seem to be 8
very simple thing" writes some one In
the Boston Cooking School Magazine
"and yet the late Charles Delmonieo
used to say that very few people know
how to do it. The secret is he said
in putting good fresh water into ket-
tie already quite warm, setting the wa.
ter to boiling quickly and then taking
it right off for use in tea, coffee or 9th.
er drinks before 1t Is spoiled. To let II
steam and simmer and evaporate until
the good water is In the atmosphere
and only the lime and iron and dregs
left in the kettle is what makes great
many people sick, and 1t is worse than
no water at ALL For water boiled like
this and favored with few drops OF
lemon juice Mr.. Delmonico used to
charge as much as for his best liquors
and he often recommended it to his
customers and friends who complained
Of loss Of appetite. 1t is worth trying"

a strange Drenm.

As rode along In one Of the sub.
urban tram cars I passed cottage
wherein strange thing happened
awhile ago. Near by lived an old man
who had received many kindnesses
from the true hearted mistress Of the
cottage, who took compassion upon his
necessity. Early one morning this lady
woke In great alright She had dream
ed that the old man was calling her
In frantic haste to come and help him.
She looked at the clock and noted the
time. It was 4:30. Later on the life
less body of the old man was found in
a well. The medical opinion was that
it must have got into the water at
about 4:3O that morning. That was
their Independent testimony before
they had been told of the curious ex-
perience of the woman. The distance
Of the well from the house made it
impossible that she could have heard
the old man cry. if he really did cry.
How, then, can one explain the Incl.
dent? might relate other facts SINH.
lar in their nature, all showing that
there Is in the world more mystery
than we have yet comprehended.-Lo

Imitation New Potatoes.

Here is a way in which imitation
new potatoes are made: Late in the
season, after the other crops are out
Of the way, the gardener plants crop
Of late and good keeping potatoes.
These potatoes are dug and buried in
heaps in the open field and left until
spring opens and the new potato sea-
son arrives. At the proper time the
heaps are opened and the potatoes Dip
ped into boiling solution to curl the
skin. The effect of dipping any potato,
no matter how old, into this boiling
lye solution is to crack and curl the
skin. and at the same time it hardens
or makes the potato much more firm.
so that its resemblance to new po-
tato is so near that it would be hard
to pick out the impostor, from appear

A Humorous Snake.

In Marianne North's "Recollections
Of a Happy Life" is a description Of a
tame snake.
Its mistress would sometimes twist
the pretty bronze creature in the great
plat of hair she wore around her hea6
and once threatened to go down thus
decorated to a dinner party Of rather
stiff people.
But one of the snakes own eccentric
tiles serves to distinguish it among all
other reptiles of a similar nature which
have served as pets.
It was as fond Of glittering things as
its mistress herself, and when she took
off her many rings and placed them on
different parts of the table it would go
abom collecting them and strlnging
them on its 1.-THE body. Then it would
tie itself in a knot, SO that the rings
could not be taken off until it was

We Meet the President Easily.


One striking characteristic Of Wash

interview can be held with the presi-
dent, the members Of the cabinet and

through their current work with all
these Interruptions Is mystery, but
they do. It is, undoubtedly better that
a subject should be discussed de vive

filter through many channels, to arrive

fruit, for things are often settled Off
