made public BY the prudential com.
mittes OF tho American toard Of com.
missioner Of foreign missions, which
Tuesday voted 70 accept the $780,.
coo offered 10 the board BY John D.

STRONG protest made BY the Consrega.
tional clergy dnal action was deferred
until Tuesday, when q supplement
tary report was adopted BY the sub
committee. This report, together with
that Of two weeks ago, was adopted.
The supplementary report takes up
the objections Of the protestants and
asserts that they are not sufficient to
prevent the board from accepting the
money. II says in part:
"One Of the principal points raised
In the report 10 the claim Of the com.
mittee that the American board can.
not now legally return Mr.. Rockefel.
ler's money, because the decisions Of
the highest courts arc 10 the effect that
trustees who have once accepted . gift
and assumed certain obligations have
no power to return the gift and 10 ab.
solve themselves from these obliga.
tions.
"The committee holds that by 70.
turning the gift, as suggested BY the
protesting olergymen, the American
board would be made responsible NOT
only to those for whose benefit the gift
was designed, but also to the present
officers SUCCESSORS.
"This statement refers to the fact
that the board already has used one.
half Of Mr.. Rockefeller's gift, which
was actually accepted February IA.
The committee holds that the action
proposed by tho protestsnts, namely,
the return Of the gift, would have beer
wrong, for it would have expressed
'disappro baton and condemnation Of
q man when he was doing an act Of
benevolence.
The committee also contents that
the board is not organized to decide
on questions Of temperance, economy
or socialism. It is held that the re.
turn Of the money would be the pass

the donor and the business methods he

would be wrong to the church Of
which he is q member.

The Difference.

There is good story told of Sir
Chieh-Chen Lo Feng-luh, who was for.
merly Chinese minister to England.
Years ago he was secretary to Ii Hung
Chang. He is very able man, and
among other accomplishments speaks
and writes English perfectly. The
story is given in The Navy as Have
Known It."
Ii Hung Chang is reported to have
said to him, ~ don't know how it Is
we send our men to Europe and Amer
lea, and have foreign instructors in
our colleges, as do the Japanese, but
we do not seem to derive the advan.
tage from their instruction which the
japanese do"
To this Chieh-C Chen Lo Feng-luh re-
piled:
THAT is quite true. I was a class,
mate of the Marquis Ito in England
He is now prime minister, and l am
your excellency's secretary"

Persian Dinners.

Persian dinners are very much like
ours, only turned the wrong way
round. The feast is preceded by
pipes while tea and sweets are handed
about Then the servants of the house
appear, bringing in long leather
sheet, which. they spread in the middle
Of the floor. The guests squat around
this, tailor-fashion. When all are seat
ed, fat loaf of bread is placed be-
fore every one, and the band then COM
mences to play. The various dishes
are brought in on trays, and arranged
around the leather sheet at intervals.
The covers are then removed, the host
says "Bismillah" Tin the name Of Cod,
and without another word they all fall
to.

Boiled Rice.

This is the method followed by a
cook whose boiled rice is always per-
feet: She washes the rice through sew
eral waters and afterwards puts it in a
colander, allowing the cold water from
the faucet to run through it, The rice
a little at time, is thrown into rapid
ly boiling water and cooked for about
fifteen minutes. At the end of that
time the saucepan is placed uncovered
in the oven, where after few minutes
every bit of water evaporates, leaving
the dry rice as fluffy as possible.

Cucumber Chowchow.

Three quarts of seed cucumbers,
when peeled and chopped; three pints
of white onions, chopped; two green
peppers, chopped very fine; one tea
cupful of nasturtium seeds, which
should be young and tender; two
ounces of white mustard seed, one
tablespoonful of black pepper, and l
few bits of horseradish. Stir in enough
salt to make agreeable to taste, put in
glass cans and cover with cold vine
gar This chowchOw will keep indef-
initely, and, If onions are liked, is an
admirable condiment.

Short Suggestions.

A coating Of thick castor oil applied
with a soft flannel cloth to eXagger.
ated colored tan shoes will tone their
vividness considerably.
Lemons can be kept soft much
longer time by putting them in a jar
filled with water, the water to be re-
newed every two days.
Grated potatoes soaked in water In
the proportion of two medium-size
potatoes to the quart make an excel
lent cleansing liquid for sponging
woolens and for washing delicate col
ored fabrics.
