Out of Stock

1t takes great deal to shatter the
composure of a head waiter and to re-
duce him to the level of an ordinary,
apologize mortal, but the feat was ac-
complished in Washington, says the
Post and in very simple way. A
lawyer went to supper at a certain
cafe after the theater and ordered a
cup of coffee.
please bring it in a cup with the
handle on the left side" he said. conf
dentially, to the waiter. "I'm left
handed, and l don't like any other kind
of a cup"
"Yes, sir" stammered the waiter; 81
will, sir"
He was seen to hasten away and
confer with the head waiter. Then
the head waiter bore down on the
party.
"What sort of cup was that you
wanted, sir?" he said.
Cup with the handle on the left
side. I'm left-handed," returned the
lawyer.
The head waiter disappeared, to re-
turn a little later obviously perturbed.
"The cup YOU" he began.
"What?" exclaimed the lawyer. "Do
you mean to tell me that in a first
class cafe like this you haven't such a
thing as a cup with handle on the
left side? Absurd Why, how am I
to use any other kind? You must
have plenty of them"
well" said the head waiter, 1--WE
usually has, but I'm sorry, sir; de last
we had was broke this morning."

A Considerable Judpe.

Rarely does a judge show hesitancy
In the court room, or a disposition to
change his mind when he has once
publicly expressed it; but an account
of refreshing exception is furnished
by Sir Henry Hawkins, Lord Bramp-
ton, the eminent English justice, In a
recent book of "reminiscences.
Baron Martin, whose native leniencv
and sense of fun often placed him ut
the mercy Of the very men he was try
ing, was once about to sentence an
old offender, charged with a petty
theft.
Look" said the baron, with an as
sumption of severity, II hardly know
what to do, but you can TAX six
months"
II can't take that, my lord; it's too
much" said the prisoner, respect
fully but firmly. 81 can't take It.
Your lordship sees didn't steal very
much, after ALL"
The baron INDUCED in one of his
low, chuckling laughs before replying.
swell, that's vera true; We didn't
steal MUCH" he said. "Well, then.
We can TAX four months. Will that
do-four months?"
may, my lord, but I can't take that
neither" said the witness, patiently.
"Then TAX three"
THAT'S nearer the mark, my lord"
the prisoner said, approvingly. "But
I'd rather you made It two, If you will
be so kind" II
'vera well, then, TAX, two," said
the judge, with the air of one who is
pleased to have done the right thing
at last. "And, mind, don't come again |:
if you do I'll give ye-well, it all de-

To Keep Green Beans.

The present system of canning has
made 1t almost unnecessary for the
housekeeper to study methods, since
1t is cheaper to buy, above all, If it
can be done in quantities at wholesale
rates, than to spend time in prepara-
ton. But in remote districts where
buying is hardly practicable, string
beans may be treated in two ways.
They can be cooked thoroughly. but
without any seasoning, and canned In
glass or tin, being careful to the utmost
in admitting no air, as vegetables are
more difficult to keep well than fruits.
The second method is to put a layer of
beans in a deep stone pot and then a
layer of salt, adding day by day till
the jar is full. Cover closely, and
when to be used, soak over night like
dried beans, in order to remove the
salt.

Economical Cooking.

Shall we have to go to the army to
learn how to cook food cheaply? Ex-
periments are being made by the Com
missary Department of our army in
what is called fireless cooking. Food
Is put over the fire and boiled a few
minutes, then, while still boiling, the
kettle is placed inside of a box that
Is made with double walls and the
space between the walls filled with
powdered cork, or even with hay. This
keeps the heat in, as the walls of the
refrigerator keep heat out After one
or two hours, meat, beans, rice and
other foods were taken out perfectly
cooked, though some experience Is
needed to know just how long 1t re-
quires to cook them well, but there is
little danger of food burning, If left in
too long. What a boon one of these
freless stoves would be to a farmers
wife with temperature up to 100 de-
grees in the shade.

Raspberry Tapioca Pudding.
For small pudding use one quart
OF raspberries, half a cupful Of tapi-
oca, half cupful of sugar half a tea
spoonful of salt, one tablespoonful Of
lemon juice, and one cupful and a half
OF cold water. Measure the tapioca
and turn 1t on the molding board.
Crush 1t as fine as possible with the
rolling-pin. Now wash it, and soak it
In the cupful and half of cold water
for three hours or longer-better over
night, If there be time. Put the soaked
tapioca in double boiler and cook it
until 1t is perfectly clear If it has
been soaked over night it will cook In
half an hour, but If soaked for only
three hours 1t will require cooking for
an hour and half. When the taploca
Is clear, add the sugar salt and lemon;
then take the dish from the fire and
stir in the raspberries. Rinse a bowl
with cold water and pour the pudding
into 1t. Set away to COOL. At serving
time turn out the pudding on a fiat
dish and surround it with whipped
cream; or it may be served with plain
cream.
