One cupful of four measured after one sitting, and then mixed with one teaspoonful of cream of tartar, sifted four times. Beat the whites of II eggs with a wire beater or perforated spoon until stiff and flaky Add one and one-half cupfuls of fine granulated sugar and beat again, add one tea spoonful of vanilla or almond, then mix in the flour quickly and lightly. Line the bottom and funnel of a cake pan with paper not greased, pour in the mixture and bake about 40 minutes When done, loosen the cake around the edge and turn out at once. Some per- sons have been more successful with this cake by mixing the sugar with the -four and cream of tartar and adding all at once to the beaten egg.-Boston Globe.

Tt only required eight words once to give me as servere jolt as ever came my way in those early years when was proud of my first single" said we'll known Washington members of the bar, relates the Post, when the talk had veered around to the subject of trials and tribulations of newly-made lawyers.
 Tt happened in the early sos, and. although 1 wasn't exactly briefiess at the time, I wasn't getting any more casses than I could handle.
 "One day couple of Texans, both of them holding good positions at the capitol, got into an altercation, and one ofthem gavethe other a aseveretrouncing The victor in tE fight, huge, breezy man, with gif lie spread-eagle mus tache, was arrs for assault, and re- leased on bail. A friend of his was a friend of mine, and this mutual friend, willing to toss a case my way, sent the Texan to my office for advice. Itook his case. He didn't appear to be even lit tie bit worried about it, although l en- deavored to impress upon him the diff ference between the District of Colum- bia brand of justice and that prevailing down in San Antone, where he hailed from.
 "The Texan who had lost out in the fight was pretty badly hurt, and the grand jury indicted my client for assault in the first degree. That looked pretty bad, and hunted my Texan up and told him so.
 I'm afraid you are taking this mat ter little too complaisantly, I said to him. But it's really bad job, from every point of view. I want to impress that upon you. You don't appear to ap- preciate the fact that there's quite fair chance of your having to go to prison for this thing
 Say, is that right, podner?' the Texan asked me, for the first time be- ginning to look bot alarmed over the situation.
 It is decidedly so,' told him.
 He got up from the chair and strode up and down the room, tugging at his mustache for minute. Then he pumped himself back into his chair.

A FEW HOME HINTS.
Hits of Domestic Information That May Come Handy to the
 Housewife.

Celery is usually added to walnut and apple salad.
 Any recipe should be tried before be- ing accorded a place on ones list. Some of them do not suit our palates, while others with some little variation of proportions, may be made h do so.
 To clean a glass decanter put into 1t few Jumps of soda and spoonful of vinegar. Shake well but leave the top open, or the decanter may burst. Rinse with clear water and turn down to drain.
 To clean porcelain bathtub, make a paste of whiting and water Apply this once a week and your tub will shine like glass. The whiting can be pro- cured at paint shop by the pound as reasonably as gasoline.
 No one in these days thinks of paper ing or whitewashing a kitchen. The walls should be oil-painted in a flat fnish-that is, without varnish-and if it is properly done they may be washed freely without injury to the surface. There are also several patent wall cov- erings resembling light oilcloth that are put on like paper.
 For removing mildew make a solu- ton of one teaspoonful of chloride of lime and a quart of water. Strain, then dip the mildew stains in it. But termilk and salt are said to be excel lent Cover the spots with the mix ture and lay in the sun for few hours. Wash out the paste, renew the appli- cation and the summing until the spots disappear.
