dry soap about an inch square, says
Good Housekeeping. When this

spoonful of gum arabic and stir un-

quart of cold water. If the bubble
makers are not very strong and know
how to keep the water out of their
mouths, wonderfully colored ones
can be made by separating this mix
ture into cups and adding a pinch of
different colored dyes to each. For
little people strawberry or currant
juice for pink bubbles and orange
juice for yellow are perhaps safer.
The I've in the soap plus the glycer-
inc increases the brilliancy of the
bubbles and the gum gives them elias

Girl Leads Bird Choir.

At the chapel of St. Peter in Flor
ence there is choir of birds, the on
ly one of its kind in existence. The
birds-300 in number-are all in
separate cages, which are arranged
in rows on both sides of the altar.
The leader is girl who has had the
birds under her own personal train
ing for over two years. The whole
of the musical part of the service
is most exquisitely rendered by them.
The leader starts each hymn by
whistling the first few notes, and
then the birds take it up, in obedi-
ence to the movement of the instruc-
tors hand.-Detroit Free Press.

Why?

Nine-tenths of the women writers
ried women, and they are all telling
other women how to retain the af-
lection of their husbands, says the
Moman's National Daily. 1t is about
as reasonable as to hear bachelor
preacher telling his congregation
bow to raise family of unruly girls
and boys to be angels. OF course
it is all right for a single woman to
tell a married one not TO nag, not to
do this thing and do that. but II
would take a modern Solomon TO tell
men or women either how to retain
affection. Affection is spontaneous
ii. great sense and 1t does not take
artful flattery to retain it. The vic
tim is tame and will feed out of
your hand" Some one tells us how
to keep the husband a lover after he
Is husband. Few persons run af-
ter car after they get it, and men
do little wooing and cooling after
winning a woman. What use is there
of tormenting the very soul out of
person TO retain any ones affee-
ton, or even TO Try to win it when II
does not come naturally and without
any effort to win? The modest girl
will not reveal her affection for d
man until she is sure OF his, neither
will she permit any but a betrothal
kiss. but TO hold a husbands affec-
ton is different from lovers, and
il should be an easy matter if the
marriage is based on true affection
and both are trying TO live noble and
upright lives. There is an old say
ing which is a good one. BE 10 his
virtues ever kind. and to his fail
ures always blind" Earth's para
CONS are not looking for wives: they
have all gone TO the happy hunt
ing ground.

Buttered Eggs.

Cook half a dozen eggs in boiling
water for six minutes, or until they
will be firm enough to take from the
shell without breaking. Do not let
the water boil violently and crack
the shells. Drop into cold water for
few seconds Take off the shells
and put into a deep covered dish.
Melt two rounding tablespoons of
butter. add saltspoon of salt, few
grains of paprika. teaspoon of pars-
ley chopped very fine. Pour the
sauce over and serve very hot. The
dish should be covered so that the
eggs will be served as hot as pos
sible.

ator Long which was intended to I'M
ply that the representatives and sena-
tors should, not pay any attention to
the total vote of the state on this mat
ter, but merely to the vote OF their
respective districts. The Stubs bill
originally provided that every person
presenting himself to vote should oe-
clare his politics., and receive only the
ticket of his own party. The Demo-
Gratis in the house forced the square
dealers" to allow a secret ballot. so
that a man might come up and vote
any ticket he pleased without declar-
ing his politics. An amendment was
also made providing for the second
choice feature, which allows a voter
to mark the candidates for any office
in the order of his preference. The
whose '.'sum of ranks" is
lowest wins the nomination. The
house would probably recede from /
these amendments if necessary.
