BOWSER,S MILLIONS.
sWhy, It's as Easy as Rolling OF
Log

Mr.. Bowser was an hour late in
coming home from the office, and Mrs.
Bowser was almost prepared for the
worst when he arrived. He was smil
ing and happy. He had a look of i'm
portance on his face Even before he
had entered the gate it was evident
that something good had happened.

Something has, Mrs. Bowser, for

Just one little inkling We shall be
worth millions of dollars in the course
of the next five years. Not another

During the rest of the dinner hour Mr.
chuckled, but no further information
could be extracted. 1t was left to Mrs.
Bowser's imagination to conjure up
the following possibilities and arrange
them in the order given:
He had bought COW.
He had invested in a balloon.
He had invented something.
He had bought hens.
He had bought hog.
He had hit a new hair-dye.
He was going to raise cattle.
He was going to Africa.
1t was a burglar alarm.
1t was a fire escape.
When the meal was at length finish
ed and the sitting room reached. Mr..
Bowser made dramatic entrance and
said:
Now, then, for explanations, and l
hope that you will see things just as l
do and there will be nothing to argue
about. I will own up that you have

The hostess at a summer cottage
has troubles of her own. Guests that
use her as a convenience are not the
least OF these, but the invited guest
the friend to whom she desires to give
pleasure-is often the greatest. The
utter disregard for the comforts of 9TH
ers that visitors so often display
causes one to cease to wonder that the
old-time. open hospitality is thing Of
the past. The thoughtless girl friend
of the daughter of the house is the
greatest sinner in this respect, but the
older people are sometimes quite as
bad, and are more inexcusable since
the thoughtlessness of youth can not
be used to cover their multitude of
sins. Young men are apt to forget
that the older lady of the household
has some claims to their courtesy and
attention, even though they have been
invited as friends of the younger peo-
pie. A few "don'ts" are well to re-
member. Indeed, 1t might be well to
make a copy of them and keep them
where you can see them every day.
Don't fail to arrive at the time and on
the train designated by your hostess.
Don't forget to leave on the day set in
your invitation. Don't be late for
meals. Don't leave your room untidy.
especially If your hostess does her own
work or keeps but one maid. Don't
be too exacting in the way of enter
tainment. 1t may not be convenient
to fill every moment with amusements
and It is an undesirable guest that can
not be content to entertain herself
sometimes. Should you be so unfor-
tunate as to be i'll while away from
home, don't make yourself any greater
nuisance than you can help. Re-
member that you are making the home
uncomfortable anyway, and be
pleasant about 1t. Don't forget that
part of your duty. as guest is to be
bright and entertaining. Don't live
to eat, though you will probably have

The question of meat in the summer
time is one that often puzzles the
housekeeper. A most delicious and
cheap summer dish can be made as
follows:
Buy a soup bone that has enough
lean meat on it to make three cupfuls
when boiled till 1t falls from the bone,
and Is run through the meat chopper.
Simmer the stock that is left to thres
cupfuls, stir into the hot stock a ta-
blespoonfnl of gelatine that has been
soaked in a half cup of cold water,
add the meat and season highly with
salt and pepper, green pepper may
be shredded through 1t II you like the
flavor. Turn out into pan such as is
used for making Individual loaves of
bread and when II cools, set on Ice
till time to serve. Loosen from pan
and turn out on platter, encircleg with
parsley and you have a delicious jel
lied loaf that slices daintily, and looks
as pretty as 1t is good. II you use
veal take half the quantity or gefatine.
Chicken prepared In this way Is de-
licious for picnics and goes much far
Their as all the meat is utilized. 1t can
be carried to the picnic in the mould
and is daintier than the sandwiches
made at home. The meat should be
cooked in a fireless cooker. If possible,
as 1t takes a long cooking to make it
just right. Any that is left may be
sliced on a platter and little vinegar
poured over 1t. Decorated with hard
boiled eggs and parsley 1t is an at
tractive lunch dish. The housekeeper
who tries this will feel that she has
added to her list Of summer dainties
and practiced economy as WE'LL

GOVERNOR WANTS TO KNOW
Gillett of California in Washington
Making Inquiries Regard
ing the Fleet.

Washington, Feb. Ex-Governor Gil
lett of California. today talked with
Secretary Metcalf regarding the move
ment of the battleship fleet on the Pa
cific coast after it leaves Magdalena
bay for the north. The governor wants
to ascertain. approximately. at least.
the dates at which the vessels will stop
at the various places along the coast.
Because of the indeterminate time at
which the vessels will leave Magda-
lena bay. ii is not possible to fix def
nitely the future itinerary. Mr.. Met
calf. however. told the governor that
the fleet would be at San Francisco be-
fore May Is.
A private letter received at the navy
department today says that the Mex
lean government contemplates making
Magdalena bay, where the Atlantic
battleship fleet is to have extensive
target practice, a port of entry, with
a municipal organization and a mount
ed police force. The fleet will be in the
bay about a month.
The Mexican government has given
permission to the United States to an
Choir three barges in Magdalena bay
with coal for the American vessels. AS
sistant Secretary Newberry now has
before him a proposition to purchase
three vessels which have been offered
to the department for this purpose.

AN INCREASE Of
THREE MILLIONS
British Army and Navy Esti-
mates Disappoint the
Peace Party.

London, Feb. 24.-The estimates for
the British defense forces for the cur
rent year, which were issued today
will disappoint the peace party. for. in
stead of showing a reduction, as they
had hoped. the combined estimates for
the army and navy show an increase of
S3,0o0,OO0, without apparently any pros
pect of considerable diminution in the
future.
Lord Tweedmouth, first lord of the
admiralty. explains outright that the
future program of Great Britain will
depend upon whether foreign powers
increase their naval forces, since the
government has every intention of
maintaining the standard of the Brit
ish navy, which hitherto has been
deemed necessary for the safeguarding
of national and imperial interests.
The war secretary, Mr.. Haldane. says
in similar statement regarding the
army:
Limit Reached.
Looking to the future. | am con-
WINGED that IL is impossible to make
further diminutions in the army eXpen-
ditures on a considerable scale. unless
we first of all reduce the number of
troops serving abroad.
"Garrisons abroad" he adds will be
reduced whenever they can safely be
done, but if reductions in the regular
army are carried too far demand will
ultimately have to be made on the
citizen forces such as hitherto has
never been contemplated"
The army estimates for 190S-09 total
1854, 1876, 120, and the war secretary es-
Inmates for a total of 1S5,00O men in the
home and colonial estimates. irrespec-
tive of India, a decrease of 1000 men
from last year.
The navy estimates total 1851. 597 800,
and provide for exactly the same num-
Der of officers and men as last year.
