Ponn!nr Fallacies.

Neither the weather bureau experts
nor the chief of the bureau Of plant in
dustry place any credence whatever
on the popular belief that trees act as
barometers to forecast rain. The pre-
vailing belief is that when the wind
blows uD the leaves Of certain trees,
euch as the silver-leaf DoDlars, the
Ae MATES and some Of the oaks, so that
mes the liter under side is shown, it is
Us Judgmeof approaching rain. The only
pie TO dole explanation For this widely
H99l opinion is that when there Is a
fairly strong, steady wind such leaves
90 turn up, though this occurs as
readily in clear as rainy weather
When the general atmospheric condl-
tons favor rain, however, people are
{ unusually alert looking for signs to

as the leaves are often turned up about

Williston believes that the Lansing
man was doubtless contemporary with
the eQuus fauna, well represented in
the late Pleistotant deposits Of Kan
sas, which include extinct species Of
the horse, bison, mammoth and masta-
don, moose, camels, llamas and pecca-

of the late paleolithic men of Europe,
whose advanced implements showed
that they had developed beyond the
stages Of primitive sayagery.

He was travelling home in the COM
pany of General Raikes, Commander
in-Chief of the Zanzibar forces, and OF
Mr.. Basil Cave, the British agent and
Consul in the island. AS Sir Charles
Eliot, his Majesty's Commissioner and
Consul-General in East Africa, is on
his way home on leave, it will thus
be seen that the principal British au-
thorities are absent from the scene,
and that in that respect the death Of
the Sultan occurred at an incOnvenient
moment. But Mr.. Rogers, who sue
ceeded the late Sir Lloyd Mathews as
Prime Minister Of the Zanzibar Gov
eminent, was Mt his post, and the du-
ties Of agent and Consul are in the
hands of the Vice-Consul, Mr.. Kestell
Cornish. There seems to be no cause
for apprehending disturbances, Ger
man intrigues against British indu-
ence having ceased with the abandon
ment Of extra-territoriality under the

but FOR winter the preserved fruits are
found to be equally popular The Int
ter are not The ordinary canned fruits,
jams or other mixtures, but the kinds
which by q careful process are pre-
served whole, and bottled in rich
syrup. These may be obtained at any
frst-class grocery store, aud cost from
% to 30 cents n bottle depending ON
the size and brand OF the domestic
brands, a bottle costing p cents win
be sufficient TO make a shortcake for
a family Of five.
The majority OF those who have tried
the biscuit crust for the cake part
prefer It to the regular layer cake SO
much used The winter fruit short
cake is made as follows:
Ingredients. three cups OF self-rasing
-four, one and a hale cupfuls OF milk,
one-thrd of a cupful Of powdered
sugar, one-third Of a tcaspoonful OF
salt one heaplng tablespoonful OF
lard, one bottle Of preserved fruit ard
one pint Of cream, sweetened and
/ favored.
Sift the -four, add the sail, then rub
in the lard until it is thoroughly
blended with the -four and there are 10
Jumps Add the sugar and milk, and
stir until it is thoroughly smooth.
Pour into a round jelly-cake tin, and
bake in a rather brisk oven for twenty
minutes Immediately upon removing
the shortcake from the oven split it
straight across into two layers and
butter each thoroughly, being careful
that the butter is not too salt When
the butter has been absorbed by the
shortcake, divide the contents OF the
bottle Of fruit into two parts Spread
the fruit from one part over the lower
layers Of cake, and pour the syrup
over it. Then place the top layer over
it, and proceed in the same manner.
Sweeten the cream to taste, and flavor
with vanilla, then whip until it is
stiff enough to hold any shape in
which it is placed, and spread it over
the top and sides of the shortcake.
The cake should be served within an
hour or so of making, and some per-
sons like it hot The fruits best adapt
ed for this purpose are strawberries,
raspberries and peaches. The whipped
] cream is not absolutely necessary, but
it adds to the appearance and favor
: Of the dessert.
