"Not Taking Any"

An amusing story is being told con.
cerning a certain duchess and little
Prince Henry Of Wales. The duchess
was staying at Sandringham, and tea
was being served in the big hall.
Prince Henry, who was present, was
made much Of by the ladies, and the
duchess, in her sweetest tones, said to
him:
"Come here. dear, and give me a
kiss"
Prince Henry came, gave q good
look at her and then said in his shrill,
childish treble:
THANK you, some other day."
1t was quite irresistible; no one could
help smiling, and happily the duchess
sense of humor was sufficient to per-
NIT her to enjoy a laugh against her
self.

chap. The joke was for every one to
tell the bookkeeper that he looked
very, very bad indeed. 1t was won
dered what effect this would have.
1T was a hot August morning when
the joke began. The Office boy start
ed it.
"'Ain't ye well, Mr.. QuillT he said.
"'Yes, Of course. Why? Quill asked.
r'Why, ye look 50 pale said the
boy.
"T feel all right said Quill calmly,
and he put ON his .seersucker Office
coat and set to work.
"But when the shipping clerk told
him he looked Ill Quill frowned and
said he had had bad night-that was
all.
when the cashier asked him what
made him have such queer color he
said his heart felt strange.

tormented with anxious inquiries, full
Of gloomy foreboding, about his health.
And finally, with an impatient, wor-

HE was gone perhaps FIVE minutes

THE DAILY TASK.
Dreadins a Duty Doubles the Task OF
pischarqine It.


A small boy whose one task for the
day consists in bringing pail OF
spring water to the house began to
pine away, and his anxious mamma
called in the family doctor. The boy
submitted listlessly to thorough eX-
animation, the result of which puzzled
the man of medicine. Does he eat
well?" he asked. Fairly So" was the
reply. And sleep?" he Queried. oh
yes, but he drags through the day
without a symptom Of interest," was
the mothers reply.
The doctor looked long and hard at
the child and then had bright
thought. What does he do in the way
Of work. he asked. Nothing but
bring pail of.water from the spring
every morning" "Cut out that water
carrying task for week" said the
doctor, "and let me know the result"
The week worked a miracle in VIII
lies health. The boy had been
weighted down by the thought of a
daily task, and it was not because he
was lazy. He did other things with
the greatest willingness, but he so de-
tested that one monotonous task that
II affected his health. There are many
gsownups like Willie, indulging a dis
taste for necessary duties to the extent
of clouding the sunshine Of life.
Dreading a duty doubles the task OF
discharging it. There are few wise
persons In the world who resolutely at
tack disagreeable tasks and clear
them out of the way before they get
troublesome. Watch a woman who
sits down to an unwelcome task OF
darning hosiery. She looks over the
articles and spends her first strength
Oh the small rents, leaving the large
ones till she begins to get weary. Be
ginning with the big ones, she would
finish comparatively easy. This is the
usual feminine method Of working.
Men who amount to anything attack
the heavy work and clear the way to
easier things, and when the decks are
clear they heave sigh Of satisfac-
ten, something woman never does.

CASSEROLE COOKING.
The Most Popular Dish Cooked In This
Fashion Is Chicken.

The Most Popular Dish Cooked In This
Fashion Is Chicken.
The charm of cooking en- casserole is
In the delicious blending Of favors
that it accomplishes. And one can
have meat as we'll as vegetables, all
from the same dish and with equal
good flavor. Perhaps the most popular
casserole dish is chicken. To prepare
this the chicken should be washed and
wiped very carefully and thoroughly,
then buttered all over and dipped in
-four. The chicken is then laid in the
bottom of a good sized casserole and
two cups Of soup stock are added. II
vegeta bles 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 or
string beans, two stalks Of celery. a
Glove of garlic, whole; salt and pep
per, a sprig Of parsley and one turn1p
cut into fancy shapes. All these are
laid around the chicken, and the cas-
serole is then put in the oven to stay
for an hour and quarter. If the veg
etables are young and fresh, then it is
best to put. them in after the chicken
has cooked for twenty minutes. But II
they are old then they can be started
when the chicken u.s., and both will be-
come tender and done at the same
time.
Deviled chicken is another savory
casserole dish, which Is better known
at restaurants than it is at the family
table. To make this the chicken Is
first broiled. Ten minutes before IT. fs
time to serve the chicken is removed
from the broiler, laid in the casserole
and the following sauce poured over
It: Take little mustard, two or three
tablespoonfuls of worcestershires pep
per. salt and stir. After the same is
poured over the chicken breadcrumbs
are sprinkled on 1t, and then the cas-
serole, with its contents, is put In the
oven to braise for a few minutes.

Humor of q Musician.

There are not few people who pos
sess the idea that the late Joseph Joa-
chin, the celebrated Hungarian mas
ter violinfst, was man Of somewhat
stern disposition, with little or no ap-
probation Of humor. The following
story from his biography written by
Andreas .Moser goes long way to dis
pei this misconception, says the De-
troitsNews-T Tribune.
Joachim was In the habit Of inter
rupting his lessons in violin playing
with pointed remarks showing a live
ly sense of humor, says the Chicago
News. One day a pupil who was a
native Of Konigsberg played the ada
gio from the ninth concerto Of Spohr.
Although he played it correctly, It was
a dry performance, and Joachim re-
marked:
my dear B., it Is no disgrace to
have been born in the city Of pure
reason but If I were you would not
show it in my playing"
To another pupil who had played
the finale from a Mendelssohn concerto
very stondly and heavily, he remark
ed, "I beg for the next lesson that
the elves do not come to dance In rid
ing boots"
Another youth could not execute q
figure that was ornamented with bril-
liant shakes to his satisfaction. In
order to make the character Of the
passage clear to the pupil Joachim
said, THAT passage is meant for a
garland with blossoms hanging on It,
not potatoes"

Tho Wrona Spirit.

1.-THE late Sir William Henry Perkin,
the inventor Of coal tar dyes" said a
Philadelphia chemist, '.had a singularly
lucid mind. I once heard him talking
about the missionary movement.
"Sir William had been for years q
warm supporter Of this movement, and
he praised it highly, but he condemned
certain phases Of it. illustrating the
phase he meant by quotation from a
Ietter-a letter written by the notable
Captain Davis to Secretary Walsing-
ham about the conversion Of the In
dians.
1.-The letter ran:
"'If these people the Indians) were
once brought over to the Christian
faith they might soon be brought to
relish a more civilized kind Of life and
be thereby induced to consume greater
quantities Of our coarser woolen manu-
factures.'

"a the $500 prize offered for the best
Design for az edicial emblem for the
ALASKA Pacific exposition, which
win be held in Seattle In 1909.
Several hundred designs were sub
mitted, many of which showed de-
e8ded ability, but none Of them so well
expressed the purpose and meaning
Of the exposition as that prepared by
Miss Hanscom. Her drawing shows
three female figures framed in circle.
The figure to the right typifies the Pa
ciac slope, with right hand extended IN
welcome and the left holding. train
ef cars representing commerce by land.
The figure to the left represents the
orient, and the ship in her hand rep
resents commerce by sea. The central
fgure in white is that Of Alaska, the
white representing the north, and the
Heggets in her hands representing her
vast mineral resources.
Across the sky In the background Is
sonr tho anrore horeelfS so vivid in the
Derth. The purple background with
the many colors of the northern Tights
makes rich coloring. At the side OF
the figure on the right are tall trees,
typical of the immense forests Of the
territory represented by the exposition.

In New Zealand.

In New Zealand the house Of repre-
sentatives has just voted 5S7 to 26 In
favor Of making women eligible an
members Of the upper house. In
Australia women are already eligible
to all Offices from prime minister down,
but when New Zealand fourteen years
ago gave women full suffrage 1t ex-
pressly debarred them from parlia-
raent. This restriction, it seems, is
now to be removed.

Orange straws are among the dainty
tidbits that are frequently served with
afternoon tea. To make them the cas-

membrane from the orange peel, cut
into thin, even strips and soak in cold
water for two hours. At the end Of
that time wipe dry. Boil two cups Of
sugar with one Of water until the
sirup threads, dip the straws into this,
then lay on oiled paper until the next
day.

a simple geometrical design. When
the embroidery is finished, slipstitch In

stitches. Several bags too dilapidated
to use were renovated in this way and
realized a considerable sum each for a
