Potato Glace or Dumplings.-Mash hot
boiled potatoes fine. season with salt and

cording to the amount of potato, then work
in enough flour to enable you to make into
balls about the size of pigeons eggs Boil
them in the hand. Have ready saucepan

a weight on the lid If necessary, and cook
twenty minutes without uncovering. Re-
member that the balls will swell. so that
allowance must be made in the size of the
pan and amount of water. A good idea is
to set an asbestos griddle under the pan
in case of the gas stove. Serve a vege-
table. If any are left over, they are de-

luncheon.

Horse Racing in Australia.

From the Milwaukee Sentinel
"one of the finest race courses in the
entire world is at Melbourne, Australia.
and some great races are run there said
Harry Yost ut is known as the Fleming
ton course, and is maintained at enormous
expense annually.
1.-The seats are arranged on terraces, on
the plan of the old Roman amphitheaters,
and on the day when the Melbourne cup
race is run there are always from $4,000
to 10000 persons at the track. The Aus
tralians are inveterate gamblers and the
future book for the big race is prepared six
months before the race Is run. The horses
over there are among the finest in tho
world and there are some exciting races,
both fiat and steeplechase. The Melbourn-
ties are great followers of every sort of
snort and at an amateur foot ball game I
have seen 10000 persons occupying the
stands"

Personifcation in Mural Painting.

From the Forum.
Personification as a theme for design has
been overdone by our painters, and not IN
the United States alone. And, therefore, it
Is worth while saying here, and in connec-
ton with those straightforward manly, but
hard and harsh presentations by Vedder,
that such set drawing, such firm and de-
cided outline, such denial of color and of
the higher charm OF light and shade, go to
make up the style which best BELTS such
metaphysical subjects. If you are going TO
put anarchy and civilization and the like
upon your canvas, you cannot do better
than to give them a treatment far other
than that which you would most enjoy II
you We're painting the real you see II.
The solidity of the figures and the cold, Dry
light which invests them have, as they GER
tainly should have, a certain relation 10
early work-to those epochs in which meta
phorical painting was first greatly deyel-
oped; and then it seems altogether well to
deny your distractions those soft grada-
lions of colored light which are the charm
and the strength of pictures founded rather
closely upon nature herself The charm
of daylight upon colored surfaces, the ex-
ternal and visible beauty of men and wo-
men and fnanimate things, are not for en-
bodied truth, patriotism, science and arr.
virtue and vice! Let us make such COM
positions purely OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
the architectural sense, and nothing more
gentle and kindly than that!

lect friends to dine with him, and upon

the hour set apart for dinner, the pro-

After spending a short time inspect

guests came suddenly to a small gate

professor to his astonished guests, sas-
