AT TER A LICENSE.

There Is Mnch Discussion to Whethe,

London, April 24.-William K. Van
derbilt has returned to Paris. His hur
ried visit to London was connected
with procuring a special marriage Ii
cense. There is much discussion as
to whether a license could. be issued
under the circumstances. It was said
the ecclesiastical court could not re
fuse, whatever it's feelings in regard
to divorced persons, but it was added
that it could @delay matters probably
fortnight by requiring the production
Of documents which would have to be
obtained from America. At the Arch
bishop Of Canterburys office it was said
that the archbishop has the undoubted
right to refuse license. No applica
ton has yet been received from Mr.
Vanderbilt. For an ordinary license
one of the parties must live in any
parish here for three weeks and have
the banns read in the church on three
successive Sundays. The French for.
malities require residence Of six
months.

CAKE KNOWLEDGE.
Some Of the Nice Points of Successful
Mixing and Baking.


Many of the long, narrow tins in
which pound of delicate crackers are
packed make the incest pans for bak-
ing a small loaf of cake. There is one
variety. however. to avoid. 1t is the
tin with rolled over edge inside. II
you bake cake In this pan, a struggle
awaits you when it comes to get it out
whole. One pound baking powder or
cocoa cans bake small cakes nicely and
allow them to be cut in slightly round
slices.
If possible never use coarse granu-
lated sugar in making cake, The re
suit is coarse texture and a hard

wire stand for cooling it when taken
from the pan. This small utensil can
be purchased for 10 cents. 1t earns its
cost many times over. for quick cooling
is vast Improvement over setting hot
cake on the bottom of the tin from
which it has just been taken. All the
moisture which is evaporated when
cake rests on a cooler remains in it and
tends to make it wet and heavy wien
set on a solid surface.
Never attempt to bake sponge cake
unless you have fire which will slow
down to very moderate heat and
keep about that temperature.
The whites of eggs which are really
new laid-nOt more than tWentyfour
hourS-Will not beat to the dry frOth
demanded in so many recipes. .\not!l-
er reason why the whites Of good fresh
eggs will not froth in hot weather is
because they have not been chilled.

be stored in the refrigerator

no dent, the cake may be taken from

If you find you have put too much
-four in a cake. do not thin with milk
but with beaten egg, adding it gradu,
ally till the batter reaches proper
thickness. Milk would impoverish the
taste of the cake; egg enriches it,
The proper time to add fiavoring to
a cake is after the mixture has been
thoroughly creamed and just before
the -four is added. Spices should be
sifted in with the -four.
Never leave the whites of eggs to
stand after beating them to the re
quired point of frothiness. Fold them
lightly into the cake mixture, then set
1t to bake.-Table Talk.

Art Even In Sewing OH a Button.

There is art even in such prosaic
matter as sewing on buttons. The
ordinary operator makes knot in the
cotton, passes the needle through the
material from the under part and
cheerfully accomplishes her tas k. The
stronger the thread the more satisfied
she will be. But when the garment is
dealt with in the wash and ironing
time comes round the knot upon which
the work had depended forms a hard
lump, which cannot possibly resist the
heavy and sharp sides of the iron, the
latter cuts it off. or certainly impairs
its strength, and the wearer is left but
tonless.
The moral is obvious. Start sewing
from the outside or from the inside be-
fore putting on the button. The latter
being fairly tight. will protect the knot
and the smooth thread at the back will
not be cut.
