Entertaining in the Home.

Tn these days oi the no servant problem it is sometimes difficult for Ia busy hostess to serve refreshments to an unexpected guest, if she bears the visitor every desire toward cOur- teous hospitality. Here are two ii tle courses which can he always feady, are no trouble to prepare, and Everybody likes them give them Pere for the benefit of both hostess lnd guest.
 Take whatever is left over of cold Foast, or boiled ham, or cold chicken mo matter how little. it will be enough-and grind it ia the hash erlnder. Seasonings should be added 10 taste, and moisten the entire com position with mayonnaise dressing Cut thin slices of bread into square discs and with the meat mixture make small sandwiches. Arrange them on cake plate, spread a damp napkin over them, and set them away
  ln cool place. Now, with q cup oi not tea, or of prepared cocoa, you are ready to receive your most fastidious friends. Or, if they don't come, the family will have a treat.
 Here is another little repast which IS but small trouble to arrange. Bake simple old-fashioned sugar cakes rom the following recipe: Three cups of flour, one cup of sugar two eggs, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one-half cup of butter, one fourth cup of sweet milk and tea spoonful of vanilla. If you fancy it. add a little pink cake-coloring. Cut With varied jumble-cutters, and bake barely enough Sprinkle with sugar while hot.
 Have plate of these ready, they are delicious. Have a trav and small glasses ready in your buffers pantry and if occasion calls for it, it is but the work of a minute to pour forth bottled grape juice in the glasses Bring forth you sugar cookies, and there you are.
 There is nothing that radiates the siow of hospitality and puts the visi- tor so much at ease as some light and paiatable repast which seems to be served spontaneously without effort on the part of the hOstess.-Alnerican Home Monthly.

THOR AND THE GIANTS.
BY A. B. LIE MASSENA.
EsHoR was the strongest god in Z

TTHOR was the strongest god in an
Norseland. One day, with his
companions Loki and Thialf, he
set forth to visit the country of the
giants. Upon arriving at the city of
King Utgard they were shown to the
palace and We're received by the King
and all his company. After the greet
ings were over the conversation turned
to deeds of valor and feats of war and
skill, and each one recounted some
wonderful exploit. Then the King adj
dressed Thor with these words: You
have told us of many brave deeds. Is
there not some feat in which you or
your companions can excel all other
menu"
Then up spoke Loki. 81 can he
said, "eat more than anyone"
THAT will indeed be a feat" an
swered Utgard. Let us have the trial
forthwith
A trough was filled with meat and
set on the hall floor. Loki placed HIM
self at one end and the champion of
Utgard at the other. and the contest
began. At the end it was found that
Loki had eaten half of the meat, but
the other had devoured the trough as
well, and was therefore declared the
victor.
Then Thialfi challenged all to a run
ming race. The King chose a young
man named Hugh as his champion.
They started off, but Hugh so far out
ran his competitor that he had finished
almost before the other had started.
Then came Thor's TURF u am good
at wrestling" he said. Are there any
here who think that they can best me?"
At this a toothless old woman stepped
forward and announced herself as the
champion of the giants. This contest
turned out as the others had done.
The more Thor tried his skill, the firm
er the old crone stood. At length Thor
lost his foothold and was brought to his
knees and acknowledged himself de-
feated.
II am very much ashamed of our
poor skill here" said Thor, as they
were leaving. "On the contrary" an
swered the King, you should be proud
of what you have performed. Know
you that Lokl devoured much, but his
opponent was Fire, which consumes
everything. Thialh ran swiftly, but
Hugh was Thought. and who can
keep pace with that? And you
were more wonderful still, for you
wrestled with Old Age, and there never
was a man yet whom Old Age will not
sooner or later lay low"
So Thor returned to his own cou

Continued From Yesterday

Now. no one either in Arundale or
had married Mr.. Aston for love. To
look at them was quite sufficient to
make you think them an ill-assorted
couple, and when you listened to the
kind of forced friendliness they in
dulged in toward each other there re-
manned no doubt ON your mind that so
delicate a flower as love had neve
grown about their path.
Paul Brumeau, with his sagacity.
found this out the first evening he was
at Dale House: a more, he discovered
yet another secret, which Lady Muriel
would certainly nave preferred him not
to possess-a secret which she was liv-
ing calmly in the belief that no one
in Arundale knew-that she cared for
some one who va not her husband.
Before her marriage Lady Muriel had
loved and been beloved by a young SOL
dier whom she did not marry solely
because, though he had remote expec-
tations, he was penniless, and Lady
Muriel was too heartless to throw away
the rich position of being Mr.. Alston's
wife for the distant chance of some day
whe they were both very old, having
enough money to marry the man she
loved.
That this man was the fair-bearde6
Christian who passed for a soupiran'
of Miss Yorke it took Paul Brumeat
but a few hours to discover, though al
the detail of how and when, and il
what form he and Lady Muriel hat
met naturally entailed q much longe
investigation.

Just now, when to be in fashion
means to be slender and sylph-like, the
woman incsned to freshness is at
a loss to know how to keep her figure.
She is apt to begin dieting herself as a
means of solving the problem. This
may prove effective for a while, but it
is only for a little while, for healthy,
hearty people, who suffer no aiment
tina requires abstinence from certain
foods, will soon tire of dieting. They
seldom turn their minds to physical
training as a means to keep the body
1.-THE and supple, and yet there is moth
ing so effectual as exercise to reduce
the weight and keep the figure young
n girlish looking.
The accompanying illustration shows
a very approved method OF exercise
that, when practised faithfully, will do
wonders towards reducing the hips and
abdomen and lending grace and sup
pleness to the entire body. The sway
ing motion, while balancing the body
from side to side, brings the muscles of
the hips and trunk into play, 1t also
has a direct effect on the muscles OF
the lower limbs, and has been found to
be of great benefit in strengthening the
ankles. The exercise should be prac-
tised first on one side of the body and
then Oh the other, repeating the exer-
else at least twenty times. always
wearing only the loosest kline of gar
ments, preferably a gymnasium suit
and f1at-heeled slippers.
