SIGNS MAY

Committee Now Has Report a
to the Number to Be Pur-
chased.

Acting under instructions from Coun-
Gil, a special committee appointed to
look into the matter of placing suit
received a statement from the Engi-
necring Department as to the number
required, along with an estimate from
the Gas Department as to the number
of lamp posts to which the signs may
be suspended.
"a meeting of the committee was
called last week, but there was no
quorum. and 1T is probable that the
work will be taken up vigorously
within the next few days. AT former
meeting the committee discussed the
a uniform system, which would be
convenient and which would not be
Of the heller -slselter sort.
On a great many cornors the gas
lamps will be used. On certain cor.
ners signs will have to be Tackled on
to business houses and residences.
Change In Names.
Until 1t could hear from .the City
Engineers office the committee was
unable to arrange for the purchase
or signs. as it had no definite in
fOrmaLlOn as 10 now many WOulu be
needed. Colonel Cutshaw's report has
already been submitted. together with
that OF Superintendent knowles. Of
the Gas Department, The special COM
|mittee is composed Of Messrs. Wilt
shine, Bennett, Washer Morton and
Huber.
The question of changing the names
OF the streets crossing Main above
Fousllee so that they may be known
hereafter by numbers has met with
more or less opposition and the mat
ter has been deferred until all members
of the Streets Committee can be pres
| ent.
This opposition is based mostly upon
sentiment, the residents of the section
AFFECTED contending that it Is not right
to wipe out names long identified with
| the history OF the city. The new ar
arrangement, hewever,sis urged by "a spe-
| cial Committee on Streets for the rea-
son that 1t Will prevent SO much con-
fusion and will give strangers a chance
Ito find where they want to go without
Ibeing forced to ask scores of questions.
/ The point Is made that 1t would he best
mot to lplaee the signs vet If the street
| names are TO be altered, as that would
smake the expense all the greater.

Pair of Banana Dishes.

Banana Pie.-Line a pie plate with
rich crust and then place a layer of
rich smooth apple sauce on the bot
tom; over this place a layer of thinly
sliced bananas, sprinkle with lemon
juice and powdered sugar; place over
all a thin layer of puff paste and
bake.
Baked Bananas.-The bananas are
cut into quarters and arranged in an
agate baking dish; a mixture is then
prepared of one-third cup of sugar,
two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice.
Half of this is poured over the ba;
nanas, which are then set in the ven
to bake for 20 minutes; while baking
the fruit should be frequently basted
with the rest of the sauce, and when
done they are truly delicious, and
may be served at almost any meal,
hot or cold.

IN TWO SHADES OF SILK.
Directions for Useful and Ornamental
Work Bag.

This pretty work bag is made of silk
and crochet-covered brass rings. A
light shade of silk is used for the bag
part. A darker shade of crochet silk,
or silk-finished cotton for the brass
rings. A pretty combination is made
by having the bag of pale lavender,
the crocheting of deep royal purple.
The brass rings used are about five
eighths of an inch in diameter. There
are nine rosettes of the brass ring
work in a row. Each rosette is COM
posed of one ring in the center, ur-
rounded by six rings. Make one round
of nine rosettes. Between each of
these nine rosettes, fasten the lower
row of ~rosettes. Crochet a chain
across the top. On this chain work
eight rows of openwork. Finish with
simple crocheted edge. This is caught
on the bag just below the drawing
strings. The last row of rings is fas-
tened to bottom of bag. The silk bag
part is % inches across, and the same
in length before a hem of six inches
is made at top. Do not sew up the
bottom until you have cut a round
piece of pasteboard six inches square.

HENS NEST FoR BREAKFAST.
Mixture OF Hard-Boiled Eggs That ls
Not Indigestible.

Six hard-boiled eggs that have been
thrown into ice-cold water as soon as
they we're boiled, to make the shells
slip off easily. Five minutes later
roll each gently on the table, crack
ing the shell without breaking the
egg. Peel off the shells; cut the eggs
in half with a sharp knife; take out
the yolks, rub to a powder and mix
with the same quantity of cold chick
en- or of ham, minced. Make a soft
paste by working into the mixture
some good gravy; season to taste,
and form into balls of the same size
and shape as the original yolks. Pack
into the whites, to resemble whole
eggs. Arrange these in the middle
of a hot platter; surround with fried
potatoes, cut into strips to simulate
straw: set the dish in the oven, COW
cred, just long enough to heat the
eggs to the heart, and serve; or, you
may make the paste softer with
gravy and heat it to a boil in a
saucepan before filling the followed
whites. 1t will then take less time
to reheat in the oven. In either case
potatoes and gravy must be hot. Pass
o gravy with the dish.

THEIR MILITARY COMPANY.
The Boy Who Would Be Captain and
What Came of 1t.

II speak to be captain" cried Luke
Edwards, just as soon as he put his
head round the corner of the barn
where the other boys were already
assembled.
"Well, you won't be-" retorted Tom
my Green, Indignantly; "tw'n't fair
coming on us that way. You're al
ways doing things when we amt
ready, to get ahead.
"You didn't think of the company,
Willie Jackson spoke of it first, and
asked us to meet here, and this is his
barn, and we're to train on his land,
and of course he ought to have first
chance"
Then he ought to have spoke first"
Knocked Luke. He didn't, SO I'm
captain"
"But you don't know as much bout
training" expostulated Tommy,
though less vehemently. "Willie's
brothers a soldier, and he under
stands things, and-and is interested"
well, l guess l can walk on ahead
and give orders and wave my sword,
can't II" demanded Luke, aggressive
ly. That's what a captains for. And
then I'm the biggest and l spoke
first
20, let him be captain if he wants
to-" interposed Willie, generously;
whats the odds?"
But he can't do it so well as you"
"He can learn" smiled Willie,
that's what I'm trying to do. If l
find out anything he don't know, l
can show him."
So in spite of a general feeling OF
| discomfort, Luke became captain and
walked on ahead and waved his sword,
and called out sharp and contradic-
tory commands, which the 20 boys
tried TO follow, because Willie assured
them that soldiers first duty was to
obey.
But as to accepting Willie's advice,
that was something Luke would not
do; it was a reflection on his dignity
as captain to receive advice from the
ranks. And more than that, he in
sisted on putting his brother in lieu
tenant and his two cousins second
lieutenant and sergeant, and to keep
the peace Willie persuaded his COM
panions to accept the situation.
Thus it went on until along In Oc-
tober, when the town was thrown into
sudden excitement by the unexpected
arrival of an old resident who had
| gone away and in 20 years had risen
to be a famous general.
Of course, there was a hurriedly ar
ranged parade, in which the promi-
nent men and the band and school
children took part, and in which-to
| their CONSERVATION and delight-the
Invincibles were asked to join.
They were at the very end of the

nails should be of various lengths SO
that many jagged points may result.
Wrap these points about in various
directions with coarse thread or
string. or with canton flannel. Plug
up ali the openings with corks except
one in the top, and then pour through
that into the box a warm solution OF
crvstallizing alum. Now plug up this
hole and wait until the solution cools.
The solution is prepared by dissolv-
ing a pound of alum in a gallon OF
warm water.
After the crystallization and the re-
moyal of the corks the jagged ends
and surface inside will be found to be
covered with bright crystals that look
exactly like the stalactites OF a beau
tiful grotto.
