Rob Tobacco Store

J. Pentilla's tobacco store at 265
Taylor avenue was entered last We'd
nesday by a party of thieves who
carried away a Merchaum pipe, some
cigars and between 40 and so dollars
in small change from the cash draw
er. The robbers gained entrance to
the store from beneath the wharf by
forcing small opening that was in
the floor, enlarging il enough to ad-
nit the body of man. The robbers
easily escaped with their plunder
without leaving the slightest trace or
clue to who they might be- The case
has been reported to the police with
a description OF the pipe which is the
only article taken that may lead to
the discovery OF the principles.

Brings Suit On Astoria

Suit has been filed by the attor-
neys OF Mrs. Annie Anderson of Port
land in the United States Court OF
that city against the City OF Astoria
for $4,000 for personal damages she
sustained in this city during the re-
gatta in 1907. Mrs. Anderson claims
that while in Astoria she slipped on
the apron on the railroad track, in
juring her hip that she says will dis
able her for life, There is question
yet to be decided who is liable for
her injuries, whether it is the railroad
or city, But she has brought suit on
the city alone. Mrs. Anderson is
of foreign birth and has never been
naturalized, consequently she had to
bring the matter up before the United
States court.

Some Good Receipts.

A pretty good baked sauce is made
by slicing unpealed red apples and
filling into stone crock in layers,
with alternate layers of sugar. Cover
with heavy plate that will serve as
weight. Bake slowly for three
hours. Make a day before needed.
When taken out the sauce will be
like a pink jelly. ~
Stew apples with the skin on (slic-
ed or CHARTERED to avoid the core.)
Put through a sive to remove the
skins, as they were left on simply to
get the color. To quart of the hot
sauce add sugar to sweeten and two
tablespoonfuls of granulated gelatine
! dissolved in a little cold water.)
Beat thoroughly and turn into molds
to chill. When served a garnish of
whipped cream adds a touch of Ella
borateness, but it is very fine with
out.
A pretty use for apples is as cups
in which to serve salads made of
celery and aples; celery and nuts,
aples and nuts, or any combination
of the three. Dice whatever is used
for the salad and bind together with
mayonnaise, or any fine dressing.
Rub bright colored apples until they
shine; scoop out the meat until a cup
is formed. Fill this with the salad
and put the lid (the slice taken Off
on. Instead of the covers, whipped
cream may be put on the top.
When making a custard, beat the
whites of three eggs to stiff froth.
Into this beat six tablespoonful of
APPLE sauce. Beat until firm and
float it on the custard.
| Pare and core four large, or six
medium sized apples. Steam until
tender, then put through the collan-
der. While hot add tablespoonful
of butter and the yolks of four eggs;
four tablespoonful of sugar and
cup of milk. Put into small cup and
bake twenty minutes. Beat the
whites of the eggs with sugar Gas for
any meringue); pile onto the baked
custard and return to the oven to
brown. Serve cold
Any of the semi-tart apples are de-
licious prepared in this simple man
ner: Cut in half, remove cores, put
lump of butter, teaspoonful of sugar,
and a dash of either cinnamon or
nutmeg in the hollow and bake in
slow oven. Fine to eat cold, and "a
dainty dessert served hot with cream
and sugar.
A cup of seeded raisins, figs, dates,
prunes or any such fruit added to a
dish of plain sauce makes an entire
change in its character while adding
very little to the work of prepare
tion.

be thirteen and l will fill the measure
by reminding the reader that apples
should be dropped into cold water as
soon as the meat is exposed to the

The Robin at Church.

1t was the night before Christmas
in England, says an exchange, and
snow was falling. A little robin
cold and hungry, hoped about wear
lily, seeking shelter and food. Our
robins fly south before the snow
comes, but this was across the sea
where the robin stays all the year.
After while an old man came
along in the path that led up to the
village church. Robin hoped be-
hind him, and when he opened the
door birdie was close by and went
in without being noticed.
The Sunday school children had
been there with their teachers, trim
ming the church with holly and mis-
tletoe, and singing Christmas carols.
The fire was to be kept all night that
the church might be warm for the
Christmas service. The old man put
on fresh coal and went home.
Birdie hoped about in the fire.
light, picking up some crumbs he
found on the floor. Some cakes had
been given to the children. How
welcome their little supper was to
the hungry robin you can guess.
Then he pearched on the ratings of
the stair, tucked his head under his
wing,---a very sleepy and happy
bird. In the morning his bright eyes
espied, first thing, the scarlet holly
berries. There was. indeed, royal
feast in robins eyes,-enough to last
for many weeks of wintry weather.
The hours flew on, and the happy
children came and sang their Christ
mas carols.
Just as the first verse was finished,
a clear, rich, joyous song burst from
brides little throat, high above,
among the green branches-a true
Christmas carol.-Dumb Animals.

And carol from the sycamore and

The prettiest little gentleman that
dearest is to me
Is the one in coat of brown and
scarlet waistcoat.
It's cockit little Robin!
And his head he keeps a-bobbin,
OF al the other pretty fowls I'd

For he sings SO sweetly still
Through his tiny slender bill,
With little patch of red upon his
bosom.

snow upon the ground,
To our little brides so bewilderin' f,
Picking up the crumbs near the win

Were left in woodland glades

But Bobbie saw the crime
Tile was watching all the time!)
And he blushed perfect crimson on
his bosom.
When the changing leaves of Autumn
around us thickly fall,
And everything seems sorrowful
and saddening,
Robin may be heard on the corner of
wall
Singing with solacing and glad
dening.
And sure, from what I've heard,
He's Gods own little bird,
And sings to those in grief just to

But once he sat forlorn
On cruel crown of Thorn,
And the blood it stained his pretty

True Story About a Horse.

True Story About Horse.
When / was little girl we lived
in the country, about mile from the
little school house. Every pleasant
day we girls walked to school. When
it was storming my father generally
carried us in the morning and we
stayed at school through the day.
Our horse, Charley, was very
knowing and kind. He knew SO well
the way from our house to the school
that he was often trusted to go alone.
Often toward the close of stormy
afternoon my father would harness
the good horse to the wagon, take
him to the road and say, Charley go
and get the girls"
Charley would trot down the road
to the school house, would himself
turn the wagon SO that he was head
ed toward home, and there wait un-
til school was out, when we climbed
into the wagon and drove home.
There he was rewarded with loving
words, pats and apples. am glad
to remember that our faithful horse
was always treated kindly. Father
refused all offers to sell him and he
ended his days with us.---A. H. N. in

BY the square method apple trees
are usually set thirty feet apart, fifty
trees to the acre.
BY the hexagon they are set thirty
three feet apart, fifty-two trees to the
acre.
Some people insist upon using fill
ers. This practice is SO often abused
that l advise against 1t. There is no
doubt but that we could obtain great
or results from an orchard set thus
for a few years. While you are gain
ing few dollars by so doing, you
