Times Gentle Touch

Last year when we were here, oh
served the girl. this old hulk on the
beach was blackened and mournful.
Now see how the gentle fingers of time
have completely covered it with soft
green mosses, until it has become a
thing of beauty.
Il think it may be so with our sor-
rows. Sombre and dead and bare,
they make an ugly black spot in orr
lives. We cannot look at them with
out pain.
But let a little time go by, and loi
The old wreck gathers unto itself ten
der mosses OF memory; its cruel sharp
corners are hidden; its shadows and
lights make a subdued and melancholy
but lovely picture; little stretch Of time
shall elapse before we look at it.
Even a great grief, when once 1t
takes its place in the perspective
OF our lives, becomes so hallowed and
softened by memories and remoteness
that there is no sting to it. 1t adds
beauty and character.
Just as that old wrecked spar with
it's melting green shadows against the
sand. gives an indescribable character
and beauty 10 this otherwise barren
stretch of beach"

official ballot, and the cross mark IL
placed In the square containing the
Republican party's device. as II should
be by any voter desiring TO vote the

The ticket headed by the emblem Of

{Some Dainty Dishes

A popular supper dish in a certain
home issues from the gas stove IN the
kitchen when the family is alone ana
from the chatting dish when there is
company. A quarter of pound OF
macaroni, boiled ard cut into short
pieces. is ready. First a tablespoon
f,Ii of butter and scant tablespoonful
of -four are rubbed smooth over the hre.
and into these are stirred cupful OF
strained stewed tomat toes. half cup Of
minced mushrooms and four stoned
olives chopped fine. Cook and stir for
three minutes. Add the macaroni, sea-
son to taste with salt and pepper and
serve. uaNoIlnS ol cAe09o 10 9S-'-N

It is an excellent idea to pass grated
American or Parmesan cheese with to-
mato sauce which is to be used on rice
or macaroni or with such dishes cook =
ed with tomatoes. Not everyone likes
the cheese mixtures. but many do. BY
serving the cheese separately all are
suited.
In the South, where the sweet pota-
toe is at home, it is almost universally
baked. Boiling wastes some Of its
sugar.

Consistency in Dress

The day Of feminine inconsistency in
dress has come again. From now on
beauteous but imprudent young women,
wrapped in furs as to neck, wrapped in
woolens as to shoulders, will be seen on
the streets on cold days. their ankles
protected by but single thickness OF
silk or Isle thread, their shoes so low
as to leave almost the entire foot ex-
posed.
Physicians say that throats should be
exposed to the wintry air; ankles pro-
tected from 1t; but that makes no diff
ference to her ladyship who affects thin
hosiery. And later on she will wonder
what brought on that troublesome
rheumatism.
