To Starch Lace.

There is a great difference of opin-
ion about the starching of lace, some
people Directing to any starch being
put in it on the grounds that it makes
the lace too stiff and tends to destroy
It,
Take some clear starch and thin it
down until it feels like slightly tnIck-
ened water, or for heavy, thick laces,
a little thicker; soak the lace well in
this, then squeeze out gently with the
hands; spread it out between the folds
of a towel or handkerchief, beat be-
tween the hands or pass it through a
wringing machine.
Avoid twisting it. After wringing
pull the lace out gently with the fin
gers and roll it up with the wrong
side inside, commencing at the left
hand end and with the points or edges
away from you. This will be found
the most convenient way to have it
when ironing.

HERBS
RECIPES BOTH PALATABLE AND
HEALTHFUL.
Dandeions Boiled with Bacon Make an
Ideal Simple Dish-Dandelion
Wine a Tonic That Is
of Value.

DandeIons Boiled with Bacon.-Clean
thoroughly a half peck dandelions and
put over the fire with boiling water to
cover. Cook ten minutes, drain, re-
turn to the pan and cover barely with
fresh boiling water. Add one pound
bacon, two onions chopped, teaspoon
full salt and bit of red pepper. Cover
and boil until tender and nearly dry.
Take up the dandelions and mound on
a hot dish, surrounded with circle
of the bacon sliced thin and serve with
boiled potatoes. DandelionS are also
tasty cooked with corn beef or
tongue.
Dandelion Wine.-This wine is in
great repute as a tonic. 1t is made
from the blossoms alone, rejecting the
stems, which would make the wine
bitter. Put four quarts of the yellow
petals in a kettle with gallon of boil
ing water cover and let them stand
three days, stirring twice day. Stratn
off the clear liquid, place in the keTtle,
with the thin yellow peel of oEc lemon
and one orange, and the Juice of both
with three and half pounds of sugar,
and a half ounce ginger root. Place
over the fire and boil slowly half an
hour. Take off, and when cooled to
lukewarm, spread a half cake of COM
pressed yeast on a half slice toasted
bread and add to the mixture. Let
this stand in a warm place for two or
three days, then put into a demijohn
or caSk (the wine must fill whatever
vessel it is put I'M, and stand away in
a warm place six weeks or more. Fill
up occasionally with sweetened water,
to make up for that lost in fermenta-
ton. When fermentation has stopped,
close tightly, leave for three weeks,
then bottle.
Watercress for Wit.-"Eat cress and
learn wit" say the Greeks; while
Pliny asserted that cress vinegar re-
stores sanity. According to analysis,
watercress contains iodine, iron, phos-
phate and a sulpho-nitrogenOus ola
fine combination of wholesome proper
ties. To be perfect, cress should be
freshly gathered, well washed in cold
water, shaken thoroughly dry, sea-
soned with salt and eaten with thin
slices of bread and butter. Some pre-
fer a dash of lemon juice with cress
and a tablespoonful olive oil, but the
epicure takes his with salt alone.

Odds and Ends of Hair.

When little scraggly ends of hair
hang down over your collar all you
need is a good brush, some back
combs and little perseverance to
make them stay up with the rest.
When arranging your couture brush
these ends briskly and then place two
back combs where they are needed.
A few invisible hairpins will also con-
spire against widow locks. A little
downy growth of hair on the cheeks
should not be tempered with. When
genuine bristles develop the electric
needle should be used to annihilate
them

when all the world should have given
her sweetest sympathy.
Aunt Dullia's face turned purple with
rage. You are a thankless, impudent
Miss" she said sneeringly. 'After all
that your uncles and aunts have done for
you-to have you behave In such an in
sulting manner is beyond me. But I've
always found it so with poor relations. l
suppose, then, you do not. wish to go

ment Thanking you for your many gen.
erosities l shall trouble you to remain no
longer"
The irate aunt turned upon her heel and
re-entered the sitting-room where the
other aunt and the uncles were prepar-
Ing to take their departure, feeling thank
full that they were ''rid of the burden Of
a poor relation" To their astonishment
the irate Aunt Dullia told them that
"the insolent Miss had refused her kind
invitation to accompany her home for the
week, and that she preferred to go to the
house Of some Of her common friends
whom she seemed to prefer to her own
kin" Although the three astounded list
eners pretended to- be much hurt over
their orphan niece's conduct, il their
hearts they felt much relieved. They
were glad she was taking what they
termed IAN antagonistic stand against
them"
And then they all-save Aunt Dullia-
went to the door Of Maggie's. room and
bade her a hypocritical goodbye, telling
her that she might call upon them for any
assistance should she need it, and that
they would expect her to ''come and see
them and let them know how she was
getting on, and that they "hoped she
had warm friends who would help her to
ind some nice and congenial employ
ment."

legs, my sons"
SLOWLY and with much pain Higgard
and Archer arose to their feet and stag
gered on Presently they came to a
very steep path where they were obliged
to walk-or climb, rnther-single file. Old
Horror went in advance and old Poison
followed in the rear, thus keeping Hig-
gard and Archer between them.
But they had not gone far when a
strange noise was heard overhead. Old
Horror and old Poison dropped to the
ground in awe. Its the fairies" whis-
pered Horror. Its the fairies. If they
see us they'll turn us into stone. Quick.
Poison, change thyself into a shepherd,
and keep firm hand on your boy I'll
change myself into trumpeter. and you
may be sure I shall not let my boy
escape me-"
So saying, the old witch and old wiz
ard Immediately assumed the forms of a
shepherd and a young trumpeter. And
hardly had they done SO when there was
the sound of nearby wings whizzing
through the air and the fairies began
alighting all around them. 'Tf you tell
who we are" whispered the witch to
Higgard. "I'll pour a poison charm upon
you and turn you into a serpent" And
the same warning was whispered to
Archer by the wizard. And SO the poor
children trembled, there In the midst OF
safety.
'Ah, ha good shepherd, where got thee
such a fine boy2'' asked the Fairy Queen,
coming close to old Poison.
"Ah, Fairy Queen, the lad is my own"
"And where got thee such fine boy?"
asked the fairy queen of old Horror.
"By my word and all the stars Of luck,
Fairy Queen, this lad is my own
well, they are sad and sorry pair
of youths to belong to such happy,
do they have tear-stains upon their
cheeks?"
'They tore their feet on the stones and
briars, Good Fairy Queen" replied old
Horror.
The Fairy Queen seemed satisfied with
this excuse for tears and was about to
order her band to accompany her on her
way when Higgard, who knew that there
would never be another chance to gain
liberty should he let this one slip, boldly
rose to his feet and cried out in an ex-
cited voice: FAIRY Queen, we are but
lads from the village, and this pair are
a wizard and witch. They will kill
us If you do not succor =" 1t was a
brave and daring thing to do, for Higgard
feared that The next instant he might be
killed by the witch beside him; but he
preferred death for himself and little
brother to captivity and an evil life.
As Higgard cried out this both old Pol
son and old Horror took from their
breasts small phials and hurriedly made
as If to throw their contents over the
children; but the Fairy Queen, seeing the
movement, and now understanding that
Los Angeles herald., 1907-10-27

the shepherd and young trumpeter were
wizard and witch. intercepted their hands
and quickly possessed herself of the
phials, the contents of which she threw
upon the heads of the witch and the
wizard Almost instantly the two wicked
creatures shriveled up, dying painful
deaths. Then, leaving their horrible
bodies there in the road the Fairy Queen
listened to the story of Higgard and
Archer. After they. had finished she ap-
pointed two fairies to accompany the
boys down the mountain side and see
that they were on the road leading to the
village.
And here is charm for each Of you,"
said the Fairy Queen, handing small
amulet to Higgard and one to his brother.
When stranger comes to your home
simply wave this about in his face, and
If he Is In disguise mis- true shape will
quickly appear. One can never deceive
you SO long as you keep this amulet
Thanking the Fairy Queen with all their
hearts Higgard and Archer returned to
their home, and as they entered the door
their parents were caillng out to them,
much worried over their disappearance.
And when the boys told their story the
fond parents fell upon their necks and
wept, saying: "Oh how near to losing
our dear sons we were Bless the good
fairies! Forever and forever shall their
name be praised"
And for hundreds Of years the amuiets
of Hfggard and Archer remained In their
family, descending from generation to
generation, and protecting their owners
from all evil persons and witches and
wizards.

the cottage holds Thus spoke Aunt
Dullia. And the other aunt and the two
uncles agreed to what she said. And
as 1t is hardly the thing to leave Mag
gle here over night alone she can go
home with me and stay the week out"
the very kind woman continued. by
then I'll expect you two men"-turning
to her brothers, "to have a place for her
to go to work. I'll call her now and tell
her to prepare to go home with me for
few days"
But when Aunt Dullia entered Maggie's
room she saw very proud, pale girl. a
girl with a determined look in her face.
1--WE overheard your conversation" Mag
gle said, looking straight into her aunt's
face. "And as I'm to look after myself
henceforth, I shall begin this very day
to do so. Thank you all for your deep
interest In me. II, when looking about
for work of some kind, should find more
employment than I need shall I recon-
mend your daughters for 1t Auntf You
and all my kit-seem to think that girls
should be put out to earn their own liv-
ing; so l suppose you shall be glad Of
employment for your girls"
There was quiet irony In the voice of
the poor orphan girl whose aching heart
had suffered this unjust hurt at time
