United States Soldiers Hospital, and
20 have been brought into the city
on special train to be carried to
various hospitals. Among the injur-
ed was District Attorney Baker, of

the wreck. He was completely ex-
hauseted, and after medical treat
msnt was sent to the city,

PROPER COOKING or MuFFiNs
AND BISCUITS.
Difference Made by Use OF Baking
Powder and Yeast---Fty Bread an
Appetizlng Dainty Well
Worth Trying.

For mullins ana biscliits Mira. Rorer
gives the following recipes;
There IN a decided difference be-
tween The ilavor ana texture " mullins
made from baking powder and one
made from yeast The yeast muffin IL
more palatable. but | am inclined to
think that the baking powder muffin
is more easily digested There are
SO many things to be taken into CON
sideration with both that one feels
like saying that neither are whole
some. but both are palatable. Corn
breads are always wholesome, as is
true of whole wheat or other coarse
-four. Corn breads are better made
with a goodly quantity Of eggs and
very little baking powder"
Rice Corn Bread--Seperate two
eggs, add to the yolks cup OF milk,
a cup Of boiled rice, teaspoonful Of
salt. cup or corn meal, one cup Of
flour and two teaspoonfuls Of baking
powder. Now fold in the whites Of
the eggs. bake in shallow creased
pan one-half hour
Biscuits--Sift one quart Of flour
with two teaspoonfuls Of baking pow.
der and a teaspoonful Of salt; rub In
a tablespoonful OF shortening; all snf-
flcient milk to make soft dough;
roll out and cut. Bake in a quick
oven 20 minutes.
Fig Bread-Prepare the -four pre-
cisely the same MS for biscuits, Beat
an egg without separating; add 10 1t
one and quarter cups of milk, add
this to the -four roll out and cut into
large rounds. Put tablespoonful OF
chopped figs on one-half roll over the
other half; brush with egg and milk,
bake In a quick oven 20 minutes.
These are nice served same as short
cake with either milk or cream.
English muffins-Scald a pint OF
milk, add two ounces Of butter; when
lnkewarm add a yeast cake and a
level teaspoonful of salt; add two and
a half cups Of flour and beat thor.
oughly; stand in warm place two
hours. and they are ready to bake
These should be baked in muffin rings
on griddle over slow fire.

For CalIous Spots,

To remove a callous spot on the
sole of the foot first soak it well In
hot water to soften. Then with a
sharp knife cut off as much of the
thick skin as may be removed with
ont hurting, but great care should be
taken not to touch the soft skin. After
the cutting spread the place with a
paste made of one-half dram of bo-
raric acid, ten grains Of beat.napthol
and one-half ounce of lanllin. Bind on
with a thin piece Of cotton muslin.
Keep this softeuing grease on the cal.
lous places day and night, for 1t win
eventually cause the hard spots to
soften entirely.

THE PRIMA
DONNA'S RETURN
BY ROBERT G. v. MEYERS


In her deck-chair, the last day OF
the voyage, Madame felt that Clio
thllde watched her more intently than
ever.
Clothilde had been responsible for
her hair and her gowns for ten years.
1t amused Madame Clgthilde's
worriment concerning the acceptance
or non-acceptance Of Croesus
For madame had been offered an
honored position as a Wife, and q
home was hers for the accepting,
Home! Had she ever had home? She
smiled. Her first home had been in
the States, some paltry rooms with a
visionary mother and an idle father.
She saw herself as she had been
then, lean girl with hungry eyes
she was now, the world knew--Itay
with its exuberance; England with its
polite appreciation; Germany with its
nod for the correct interpreter OF it's
tone.idols. And now she was going
back to the beginning, to America,
where there was none to welcome her
--she was going to the home Of stran-
gers, the land OF her birth.
She opened the book on her lap. 1t
was the score Of Tristan und Isolde"
There were slips of paper marking
the different parts of the score She
took ont one CT these papers; it was
her answer TO Croesus telling him
that all should be as he wished. 1t
had been written before she left Lon
don so why had it not been mailed
at the time? Even when he came to
see her embark, and filled her state
room with flowers, she had said moth
ing about that unmailed letter, had
given him no answer. She was wear
led of effusiyeness, and it had
seemed better to mail her answer to
him when they were 1000 miles
apart, have him run over to America,
and take everything as a matter OF
course, and she should go into the
new life without the indignity Of ex-
element
Aud this scrap of newspaper beside
the letter? She had torn it from a
London daily; it told of the destrnc.
ion of the New York theater where
she had first sung:
1.-THE organist saved the lives of a
score Of men, women and children in
he fiery holocaust. When all the au-
Hence were safe, he plunged once
more into the burning shell in order
The Cairo bulletin., 1907-04-08

to rescue a portrait that hung on the
corridor. the portrait of Madame Cor
nelli. who as Miss Suzanne Cornell
opened the theater several years ago
in a concert
Why had she saved this scrap of
paper? She crumpled it in her hand,
and flliped it toward the ship-rail.
The first night in her native city
had vouchsafed to it little of that re-
freshing slumber which had charac-
terized Madame's rest on the vessel.
"Clothilde." she said, Il must dispel
a sensation that seized me when
read something in paper a week be-
fore we left London. This is New
York, the city where | was born:
will go see the places that were once
well known to me when l was a poor
struggling girl. That will cure me.
And ! shall go alone. Not a word,
please"
She caught up her letter to Croe-
sus that she might post it as she
went along. she would cure her
self of any hesitation regarding the
posting of that letter.
Then she went out in the glittering.
busy street. Why. II was the very
street in which was the theater where
she had sung in public for the first
time years ago. She recollected the
dificulty there had been for her TO get
permission TO sing at the concert He
had managed IT, though-David War
rick had obtained the permission for
her to sing. He had been organist at
Saint GuduIph's. His room was next
the rooms of her father in the old
house; he had coached her in the
singing. and took her into his choir.
