Manipulating the Pin.

and you give the pin sufficiently
swift rotation to make it present the
image of a drinking glass.
Much depends upon the brightness
Of the pin, the light it shines in and
the darkness of the background. In
the illustration the operator is sup
posed to be in dark room, with a
ray Of sunlight falling through the
shutters. upon the pin.
With a little practice various objects
may be Initiated If the pin tends to-
ward a horizontal position, says the
Chicago News, it should be tied to the
eIaatic with bit Of white thread,
which will not interfere at all with the
experiment

CHICKEN A FAvoRIrE Dish.
Most Appetizlne Dainty When Cooked
En- Casserole.


The charm OF cooking en- casserole
is in the delicious blending of navors
that it accomplishes. And one can
have meat as well as vegetables, all
from the same dish and with equally
good flavor. Perhaps the most popu-
lar casserole dish is chicken. To pre-
pare this the chicken should be washed
and wiped very carefully and thor
oughly. then buttered all over and
dipped in flour. The chicken Is then
laid in the bottom of a good sized cas-
serole and two cups of soup stock are
added. If vegetables are desired with
it a dozen small onions are put in
whole, with a couple of large potatoes
cut into about two dozen small balls,
one carrot cut into fancy shapes, two
handfuls of string beans, two stalks OF
celery. Glove of garlic. whole, salt and
pepper, a sprig Of parsley and one
turnip cut into fancy shapes. All these
are laid around the chicken and the
casserole is then put in the oven to
stay for an hour and a quarter. If the
yegetablesSare young and fresh then it
is best to put them in after the chick
en- has cooked for 20 minutes. But #
they aretold then they can be started
when the chicken is. and both will be-
come tender and done at the same
time
