One Point of Resemblance,

Back in the sixties, when Commo-
Gore Vanderbilt was the "whole
thing" in the rapidly growing New
York Central system, which then
consisted of a continuous, one tract,
line connecting Albany and til
great lakes, the president of small,
cross country line of seventeen miles
one day approached the commodore
and requested him to exchange an
aual passes. "Why, my dear sir"
remarked the commodore to the 9th
or railroad president, my railroad
system is more than 300 miles in
length, while yours is only seven
teen miles longw "That may all bc
90" replied the other, "but my rail
yoad is just as wide as yours. y

The Buffalo Waiter

"There is a scheme that the New
York walters can't work that reaps
q harvest for the walters in my
home city," said the Buffalo man to
a number Of friends at a recent din
ner in a New York hotel. "When
you pay your bill in a Buffalo res
taurant if the waiter knows that
you are only transient visitor to
the city you will receive enough
Canadian currency in your change
to satisfy the waiter as a tip. Coin
from across the border has a free
circulation in Buffalo, but tray
elers coming east would find trouble
trying TO pass it in any other citg,
and they don't like to carry it with
them. The walters know that. -

THOUGHT Shed Gone.

When Mr. Daniels went down to
the club, says London Tit-Bits, he
left Mrs. Daniels with lady friend
whose abilities as a scandal monger
and mischief maker are pre-emi-
nent. When he returned he Just
poked his head into the drawing
room and said, with a sigh of relief
"That old cat gone, sappose?"
For just an instant there was a
dreadful silence, for as he uttered
the last word he encountered the
stony glare of the lady who had been
in his mind. Then Mrs. Daniels
spoke quite calmly:
"The old cat? She said. ooh,

In the snake bag trick of the Me-
nomini Indians the performer holds
before him a red flannel bag about
thirty inches in depth by twenty
inches in width, with fu& white
feathers along the top of the open
ing. Then he rolls the bag up into
a ball to show the audience that
there is nothing in it. Then he
takes the bag by the two upper cor
ners and holds it up before him
once more and begins to dance
around the circle, his confederate
preceding him dancing backward,
chanting with the performer and
making various gestures toward the
bag. Presently two snake heads
emerge from the top of the bag and
gradually lengthen more and more
until their bodies protrude perhaps
as much as six inches. Then the
heads slowly retreat and finally dis
appear, and the performer again
doubles up the bag to show the
spectators that there is nothing in
it.-New York Sun.

The MaIacca Wildcats.

In the forests Of Malacca and 9TH
er islands in the Indian ocean may
still be found the animal known as
a wildcat. The upper parts of it
are generally of clear yellow color,
with black spots. The lower parts
are white, with black spots also.
On the back the spots lengthen al
most into lines or rings, black on
yellow. The average length Of the
animal, excluding the tail, is almost
two feet. The tail averages nine
inches. It's height when standing
erect is about twelve inches at the
shoulder and fifteen inches at the
hind quarters. Its temper is mild
and gentle. 1t plays almost like a
domestic cat or, rather, kitten,
chasing its tail and amusing itself
with anything that it can roll with
its paws.

A TYPEWRITlNG POINT.
Why In Some Work Periods and Com
mas Show Black and Deep.

"When in anything typewriter
you see the periods and commas
punched black and deep" said an
experienced typewriter, "you may
know that the work was done by a
beginner or by one who had not yet
done sufficient work to have ac-
quired a perfect touch.
"The reason for the deep punch
ing Of the punctuation poAts is
very simple. Naturally enough the
beginner at typewriting plays upon
all the keys with equal force, but as
the types attached to the keys pre-
sent unequal amounts of printing
surface it follows that equal force
applied to all the keys results in
more or less unequal printing on
the paper.
"For instance, a certain amount
of force applied to the 'B' key might
produce of that type fair impress
sion on the paper, but the same
force applied to period might
drive that, a mere point, clean
through the paper. In fact, it is not
unusual for beginners on the type
writer to punch holes in the paper
with their periods.
"But as the learner progresses in
her art she comes to realize that
some types must be touched more
lightly than others, and gradually
her periods become less black and
deep, and with further practice she
comes instinctively, automatically
to grade her touch on all the letters
and signs until at last she is able to
produce typewriting that is nothing
less than artistic in effect, true and
uniform and beautiful.
at is something fine to see the
good work of the intelligent, sensi-
tive and truly competent type
writer" New York Sun.

Earthquake Carpenters.

The term earthquake carpenter
at first glance might give the inn
preston of a person capable of do
ing a job in fast time, regularly
shaking the work together. To
some persons it might convey the
idea Of a man whose work was so
poor that it was likely TO drop to
pieces at any moment. Actually it
is a jamaican term and really
means man whose work is in
wrecking, man who takes apart the
fallen houses and sorts out the tim
bers.-New York Sun.

DISHES DESIGNED FOR THE DEs-
sERT COURSE.
Dutch Buns Freshly Baked Will Be
Pronounced DeIicious-Directions
for Compromising Pudding
Of Baked Oranges.

The Designer offers a recipe for
Dutch buns which will be welcome.
Dutch Buns.-Cream together one
half cupful each of butter, sugar and
mashed and sifted potatoes; add four
beaten eggs, one pint of scalded and
cooled milk, half a teaspoonful of salt
and one compressed yeast cake dis
solved in one-quarter cupful of warm
water. Stir in four cupfuls of flour
and beat continuously and vigorously
for ten minutes, and then stand to
Use in a warm place until light and
frothy. Then add -four to make a soft
dough-it will probably take four cup
fuls, though the amount necessarily
depends on the thickening properties
Of the flour, which varies in different
grades.
Turn the dough on to the molding
board and knead to a smooth, elastic
bulk. Set to rise once more, and when
doubled in bulk shape with as little
handling as possible in small round
biscuits. Place them two inches apart
on buttered baking sheet and stand,
covered with cloth, in a warm place
for an hour and half and bake in
moderate oven for 35 minutes
This amount will make 36 small
buns. Split and toasted, or, rather,
dried through and through, they make
an ideal zwieback
Baked Orange Pudding.-One cup Of
sugar, large tablespoon of butter, two
eggs and one and a half cups of milk,
two cups of flour and two teaspoons
Of baking powder, flavor with the
grated rind of two large oranges. Bake
until golden brown in a brisk oven.
Serve with the following sauce: Four
large tablespoons of sugar, two of but
ter and one of -four. Cream these three
ingredients together until perfectly
smooth. Beat the white of one egg to
froth and add it, pour over the mix
ture until 1t is creamy, and allowing
no Jumps to form. Have prepared two
large oranges, from which all the peel
and skin have been removed, also the
pits, and chop them in small pieces.
Remove the sauce from the fire and
add these oranges Serve the pudding
piping hot in the pudding dish, have
sauce in separate dish and pour a
goodly lot over each portion.

To Take "BIack" or Burned Cake.

A good way to take the black" off
cake when it is burned Allow the
cake to cool, and then take an ordin-

be frosted, and is much better than
cutting the burned part of with a
knife.
