Several Kinds Of sausares.

The Germans. in most instances, al
together discard bread crumbs for their
sausages. and when they do use them
moisten them with milk or water. but
the Italians refuse to put any bread
into their sausagcs, and they claim
that their famous ''Bolognese morta-
della" is ut once n more nourishing
and a more economical sausage than
the very best German wurst, mas
much as the .mortadella" must be
boiled three times before it is properly
cooked. and the water in which IL has
been boiled constitutes a strong clear
soup. The Romans make likewise a
highly ambitious sausage. in which no
kind OF bread Is allowed to enter. They
call 1t ''zampino." which is the foot
and leg OF young pork. the best Of
which Is obtained from Modena.
A leg freshly salted is chosen and
carefully skinned. the trotter being
preserved: then the meat Is finely
minced and after being seasoned is re.
placed in the ''zampino." which Is tied
with string and simmered in an oval
pan for two hours. Wholly innocent OF
bread crumbs are also the renowned
.cervelaS' of Strassburg.

mired her at first sight. But Herman
was a handsome fellow despite the
careless manner in which he dressed,
and the new stenographer often glanced
at him approvingly when she knew he
was looking the other way.
Mr.. Drummond, the senior partner in
the firm, introduced Herman to the
new stenographer. He knew Herman's
reputation for shyness and only by a
great effort kept down smile when he
saw the big German blush conspicuous

me to try . certain medical college, but
its treatment did not do any good. At

Remedies he was so bad that had to
cut his hair or and put the Cuticura
Ointment on him on bandages. rs IL was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
OF skin on his whole body that was not
Affected. He was one mass Of sores
The bandages used to stick to his skin
and In removing them 1t used TO take
the skin of with them. and the screams
from the poor child were heart-break-
ing. i began to think that he would
never get well, but after the second
application Of Cuticura Ointment I
began to see signs Of Improvement.
and with the third and fourth applica-
tions the sores commenced to dry up.
His skin peeled or twenty times. but It
finally yielded to the treatment. i used

the breeze through the pine tops She
had just opened the little red volume
