Comprehensive Recipe.

Leech, the famous artist of London
Punch, was at his best as an enter
tainer in his own house. Dean Hole
asked him one day, after Leech had
given him delectable dinner at his
lodgings in Scarborough, how he made
such good champagne-cup. "The in
gredients," he replied, "of which this
refreshing beverage is composed, and
which is highly recommended by the
faculty for officers going abroad and
all other persons stopping at home.
are champagne, Ice and aerated wa
ter; but, in consequence Of advancing
years, always forget the seltzer."

Indian Baskets Tell Stories.

The making Of Indian baskets is the
work Of the women of the tribe. I'm
honored and. unsung, unknown even to
the daughters of her daughters, the In
dian woman basket maker passes to
her grave, leaving behind her chain
of woven books, each a volume in it
self. The aboriginal basket maker puts
into every piece of work she turns out
as much of the history of her race as
she knows and all of her own life, II
she can express 1t in the set pictures
or figures which have been handed
down to her since basketry began

INSPIRATION WAS HAPPY ONE
Good Idea That Rescued Student from
q Serious Dilemma.

A student In one OF the theological
colleges found himself face to face
with an examination in Old Testament
history--a subject which he had en-
tirely ignored all term. Taking coun-
sci with some friends, he decided that
all he really needed to know was the
long list Of the names Of the kings
Of Israel and their dates. So he
crammed them each and all into his
bursting head. But, sad to relate, all
he was asked to do was to criticise
the acts of Moses. Not one act of
Moses, good, bad, or Indifferent, could
the unfortunate youth remember, so,
after much thought, he wrote as fol-
lows:
Far be 1t for one as humble as ]
am to criticise the acts of the great
Moses; but, II you would care to know
the names of the kings Of Israel and
their dates, you will find them writ.

Find Happiness in Children.

Very domestic is the life of the, Bel
giane, and the children enter into
every sort of interest Of the parents.
They would not think of going to the
restaurant or summer garden without
tie children, and their own pleasures
are often but the reflected ones Of
their boys and girls. The father goes
to the circus with his little troupe of
young folks about him and enjoys
tteir joys. The happiness of the peo-
pie is centered in their homes, and
a1ything that will interfere with the
good of tie child is not tolerated by
the self.respecting Belgians.

"Thirteen" and a "Bit."

A thirteen" in money was a small
coin in circulation in Ireland in the
early part of the nineteenth century,
equivalent in value to thirteen pence,
and was known locally as a "thir-
teen" A "bit" in money means any
small coin, as a four-pen bit, a
six-penny bit. Specifically 1t is the
name of small West Indian coin,
worth about ten cents. In parts Of
the United States there was formerly
current small coin (called in some
states a Mexican shilling), of the
value of IL IL cents, and this was
called a bit" In the Canadian West
to-day "bit" is said to be Is cents.
and 25 cents represents two bits.'

Eve Was a Lunuer.

Man still carries the original num-
Der of ribs, but he is short of lung
lobe. Where did he lose 1t? Eve got
1t. Mans right lung to-day consists
of three lobes; mans left lung to-day
consists of two lobes. Let us consider
the missing lobe on the left. The
lungs, mind you, are the life. Eve
was made out Of Adams third lung
lobe on the left, the lobe nearest the
heart. She was constructed out of
wind mostly. That is-she took part
Of Adams breath away. Adams pos
terity of the male persuasion in these
latter days can count on only five
llobes to both lungs; while Ewes
daughters can count ON seven; which
accounts for woman having the last
word in a controversy.-New York

1000 persons, and none Of them ever
