AN ECONOMICAL DINNER.

Fore quarter of lamb is the most
economical roast to be had, and one
Of the very best. Order large piece,
at least seven pounds, and have or
six chops taken off first, and then two
pounds of the neck and rib ends for,
stew or lamb pie. The shoulder-blade
and bits of bone are to be made into
soup with the ordinary vegetables
and either cup of beans, mashed, or
cup of tomato, to give body to 1t;
the whole, of course, served clear.
The roast may or may not be stuff
ed in the pocket left by the shoulder
blades removal; the peas may be can
ned ones for convenience, or fresh
vegetable, such as caulifiower, may
be substituted. If one wishes to have
this company dinner, a simple green
salad may follow the lamb, with
French dressing and wafers.-Harp-
er's Bazaar.

CURIOUS LIBEL SUIT DECIDED.

Praise of Surgeons Skill Held to
Be Actionable Sometimes.
A curious libel suit against the
New Orleans Picayune has been with
drawn by the plaintiff after 1t had
had been appealed to the supreme
court and reversed. The suit was
brought by physician because the
paper had complimented his skill and
professional devotion in an important
surgical case.
The doctor said that the laudatory
article, although written with the
kindest intention. was injurious to
him. as it placed him before the pub
lie in the light of quack, because
reputable medical men never ALLOW
themselves to be advertised before
the public" The lower court upheld
the defendants plea that there was no
cause for action, but the supreme
court in remanding the ease said:
True, words of praise and congrat,'
ulation are not actionable. But words
of praise and congratulation may-on
rare occasions fortunately-lose their
grace and charm and become action
able" The court also said: "The
physician who by inference finds him
self classed with quacksalvers will
be entitled to a hearing or at any
rate should not be turned out Of court
unless 1t appears that he Is in errer in
thus contending." -Nashville Amert

CREAM CHEESE sALAps.

An appetizing salad for dinner is
made of cream cheese. Roll the
cheese into little balls with butter
paddles, heap the balls on lettuce
leaves or endive and pour French
dressing over them. A rather more
elaborate salad is made by mixing
with the cheese minced parsley and
paprika, molding the mixture in little
egg cups and placing on the ice to
chill. Serve on lettuce leaves Win
mayonnaise dressing. Still another
way of serving the cheese balls Is 10
line small fiuted timbale molds with
aspic, then when this is set place IN
the center ball of cheese and on the
cheese stoned olive filled with as
pic. When serving turn onto dish
and place about the cheese mounds
celery finely minced and mixed WIN
mayonnaise dressing.

An official of a transatlantic steam
ship line tells of the excitement on
board one Of his company's vessels
several days out from Liverpool,
caused by an accident to the steering
gear, but which rumor magnified. The
captain was soon approached by a
lady passenger. els it true, Captain, .
asked she, anxiously, that we have
lost one of our screws?"
mot at all, madam" was the reply
Of the officer. There was some little
dif1culty with one of them, but it has
been repaired, so that now everything
is all right"
well, I'm very glad to hear that, "
responded the lady, with relieved
look, although I was far from shar-
ing the apprehension of the rest of
the passengers. After ALL" she added
refectively, "why should we worry,
even if there was something the mat
ter with the screw? It's under the
water and doesn't show."-Woman's

PIsTACHE AND ORANGE MER-
INGUES.

This is one of the daintiest ways
Of serving cream for a little dinner
or lawn fete. The pistache nuts can
be bought at the wholesale nut stores
or in the Syrian quarter Of the city.
Shell and blanch two pounds OF the
little nuts, then poand in mortar TO
a smooth paste, fiavoring with the
orange flower water. Make vanilla
cream, with or without eggs as pre-
ferred, add the nut paste and freeze
1t is as well to buy the meringues at
the bakers as it is not worth while
to spend time and strength on them
when they can be obtained readily
Press a spoonful of cream between
the shells and serve on small plates.

more encouraging, now that the San

without any disturbance.
Manufacturing plants are well oc-

for commodity quotations for the month
of May. Customary summer quiet is
noted in some departments, although
there is less than the usual interruption,
and preparations are already in progress
for very active fall season. Labor
conditions have improved, the only new
disturbance of note being locally among
the painters, while the steel industry
suffers less delay from old disputes. Rail

EACH VILLAGE is A VENICE
Strange Relic Of Ancient Customs Pre-.
vailinc in a German Forest.

Strange Relic OF Ancient Customs Pre-
vailine in German Forest.
One of the most interesting regions
in the "old fatherland" is the so-called
"Spreewald," the Forest of the Spree,
situated not far from the German
capital, in the province Of Brandon
burg. Each village is a little Venice,
every house little island, and these
islets are connected by bridges suf-
fciently raised to allow boats to pass
under them.
Most Of the houses, with their barns
and stables, rest on piles, and there
is generally strip of artificial terra
frma either in front or at the rear
of every building. By means OF these
land strips and of the bridges the
slender land communication Is kept
throughout the district, but most OF
the business and amusement is car
ried ON through the canals, which not
only form the main highways but
penetrate and cross and recross the
whole region.
It is on these lagoons that all traf-
&c is conducted in boats during the
period from spring, when the last YES
tiges of frost and ice are disappearing,
until the end of autumn. You see
the letter carrier shoot up and down
the canals, performing his duties In
his frail craft; the police glide leis-
urely along the banks, watching every
thing going on; peasants bring the
products of their toll to the nearest
towns; children go to and from
school; young mothers, dressed in
their Sunday clothes, are rowed to
church, carrying in their arms
small, queer-looking bundle from
which two large eyes in tiny face
stare at the stranger in wonderment--
baby is going to be baptized, an i'm
portant moment with this strongly reli-
gious people-Technical World.

ARE PRIDE OF SWITZERLAND.
Small cantons Support Many Schools
Of Great Reputation.

Geneva is only one of the UNIVERSE
ties of little Switzerland, according to
Charles F. Thwing, in Harper's Maya
zine. Basel, founded in 1640; Laus-
anne, founded as an academy in 1885,
and as a university In 1890; ZURICH
founded in 1892; Bern, founded IN
1884; Freiburg, founded in 1SS9-have
each secured high educational place.
though in its historic impressiveness
Geneva is unique. But Geneva and
her five companions are noble Illus
trations of the spirit and power OF
democracy. Their support is derived
largely from the cantons in which
they are located.
Although the constitution Of 1S4S
authorized the federal government to
erect and to maintain a polytechnic
school and university, the university
has not been established. The can
tons support their universities with
willingness which is as great as Cd
tains in the state Of the American
union touching their respective state
universities. The University OF Zu-
rich is maintained by common
wealth of only $4,000 people, and with
in an area of less than 700 square
miles. Basel, with a population OF
less than 100000, supports its uni
versity. They are examples OF the
power Of an enlightened democracy
which interests itself in the highest
education. This interest is not con-
fined, either, to the cause OF hDerai
learning. For the technical schools
of Zurich are among the best OF the
world.
