Where Time Is Nothing.

Miss Mary f. Dunham in her book
Of travels through the Balkan states
says she found that the idea of women
those countries struck the people whom
she met as most singular. A Montene-
grin was also nstonished at an eXpend-
iturc of money upon travel which
seemed to him without an adequate
purpose.
The English, he had been told, want
ed to sec and know everything. They
travelled everywhere. 1t must be a
very expensive habit. 1t had perhaps
cost me rs. he suggested, to come this
distance l admitted that it had, and
he expressed great establishment at the
lavish expenditure.
"And 1t takes not only money, but
time" said my companion.
He laughed merrily. "Time! What
is time? Time Is nothing. You live,
and then you die" The idea OF reck-
oning time" amused him vastly.
Time" said Hungarian who was
OF the party, In order to show his su-
periOr knowledge. sis thought very
much of by the English. have been
told that they have a proverb which
says. Time is money"
We corroborated this report. to the
astonishment OF both men, for even
the Hungarian thought this was going
rather far. The Montenegrin thought
IL one OF the widest statements he had
ever met with and shook his puzzled
head.

She Had Her Way.

The late Counselor f., chairman Of
the quarter sessions for Dublin, was so
remarkable for his lenlency to female
culprits that woman was seldom con
victed when he presided.
On one occasion when this humane
barrister was in the chair prim look

commission court, at which presided
the equally humane though perhaps
not so gallant Baron s.
She was Indicted for uttering forged
bank notes. According to usual forms
of law. the clerk of the crown asked
the prisoner If she was ready to take
her trial.
With becoming disdain she answered
"No!' She was told by the clerk she
must give her reasons why.
AS if scorning to hold conversation
with the official, she thus addressed
his lor,lship: MY lord. won't be
tried here at all. I'll be tried by my
Lord E.
The simplicity of the woman. coupled
with the well known character of E.,
caused n roar of laughter in the court
which even the bench could not resist.
Baron S.. with his usual mildness,
was about to explain the impossibilty
Of her being tried by the popular judge
and said, "IIe can't try yOu.' when
the woman stopped him short and.
with an inimitable sneer. exclaimed:

my lord; he tried me twice before"
She was tried. however. and for the
third time acquitted.

When Congress was Road building.
The National road is a public highway
originally projected from Cumberland,
in Maryland, to the Ohio river. but ul-
timately carried as far as Illinois. The
first Act in regard to it was passed by
Congress on March 30 1906. 1t appro-
priated $50, 900 for the expenses of three
commissioners, to be appointed by the
President. for the purpose of laying ont
the road. There was much opposition to
every successive bill appropriating
money for the road on the ground of the
uuconstitutionality of Acts of Congress
providing for internal improvements.
Sixty bills in all were passed appropria-
ting money for the establishment, exten-
sion and repair of this road, the last be-
ing that of May %, 1888. The building
of railroads put stop to its further eX-
tension. The total amount appropriated
WAS x6, go, ,246.

CHRISTMAS REMNANTS.
eOw to Serve Portions of Turkey
Left Over From the Feast.

After your Christmas dinner you will
probably find that you have a goodly
portion Of turkey left. This has hap
pened n great many times before, and
as n result many ways have been de-
vised for preparing these left over
scraps Of turkey meat. This does not
mean the large white slices of the
breast, for this portion Of the meat can
be simply arranged on platter and
eaten as 1t is.
A salad Of the white meat of turkey
is as good rs If not better than chicken
salad, says the Buffalo Times. Take
one cup of turkey meat rather cOarsely
chopped, one cup Of celery, also rather
coarscly chopped, and the whites Of
three hard boiled eggs, also chopped.
Put the yolks OF the hard boiled eggs
into bowl and mash and then pour
over them three tablespoonfuls Of
melted butter or pure olive oil; into
this. one of mustard, with n dash of
rcd pepper; then thin with half cup
of good vinegar.
Another way to use the white meat
of turkey is to chop it fine, then put
spoonful of cranberry sauce that has
been run through n colander in the
bottom Of n mold or small bowl, on
this layer Of chopped turkey, then
layer Of cranberry, and so on till the
mold Is full. Press hard and put In
cold place till ready for use, then turn
out on platter
Turkey croquettes are also excellent
Take one cup of turkey meat chopped
fine, one cup Of breadcrumbs. one
spoonful of butter and two Of cream;
season with salt and pepper, mold into
little fancy shaped cakes and fry.
Turkey patties are made exactly as
are chicken patties. To one cup OF
turkey take one cup Of turkey gravy
or one cup OF water made rich by a
generous lump of butter, season and
thicken with a little flour, pour into
pastry shells and bake in a quick oven.
