Cream PuHs.

When a large number of puffs are
to be made try this recipe recon-
mended by one who has run a home
bakery: Put half cup of butter into
two cups of boiling water and set over
the fire. When 1t boils stir in, all at
once, three cups of sifted flour, stir
rapidly and until it becomes smooth
mass that cleaves from the pan. Take
from the fire and add ten eggs, one
at time and unbeaten. Beat each
egg in thoroughly Then put the bat
ter in small spoonfuls on a creased
pan with considerable space between,
or put through a pastry oven about
20 minutes If very small, or as long as
40 minutes II large. BE sure that
puffs are quite done before taking
from oven. When cold cut cash in
the side, put in cream filling and
put white or chocolate icing on the
tops.

CHAPTER VI.
Euuene's at Two.

"Since we don't want to be over
heard" remarked Mr.. Anisty, its no
use trying the grillroom downstairs. al
though l admit it is more interesting
Just as yeh say, sir"
Awed and awkward, the police de-
tective stumbled up the steps behind
his imperturbable guide; 1t was a
great honor, in his eyes, to lunch in
company with Swell" Man of
stodgy common sense and limited edu-
cation that he was, the glamour of
the Maitland millions obscured his
otherwise clear vision completely. And
uneasily he speculated as to whether
or not he would be able to manipulate
correctly the usual display of knives
and forks.
An obsequious headwater greeted
them, bowling, in the lobby. Good aft
ernoon, Mr.. Maitland" he murmured.
Table for two?"
Good afternoon" responded the
masquerader. with an assumed alb.
straction, inwardly congratulating
himself upon having hit upon a res
taurant where the real Maitland was
evidently known. There were few cir
cumstances which he could not turn
to profit, fewer emergencies to which
he could not rise, he complimented
Handsome Dan Anisty.
"A table for two" he drawled Matt
land.wise. In a corner somewhere
away from the crowd, you know"
This way, II you please, Mr. Matt
land"
"By the way" suggested the burg
lar, unfolding his serviette and CLAN

by good chance was thinly populated
"by the way, you know, you haven
told me your name yet
"Hickey-John w. Hickey, detective

Thank you" A languid hanC
pushed the pink menu card across the
table to Mr.. Hickey. And what do

scious that both unwieldy feet were
neryously twined about the legs OF hi
chair: blushed; disentangled them
and in an attempt to cover his con
fusion, plunged madly into considera

his lips, The room seemed suddenl,

of his neck.

desperation, hungry, much. Had a

rule never to drink anything for six
hours after rising" Anisty selected a
cigarette from the Maitland case, lit
Il, and contemplated the detectives
countenance with n winning smile.
Now, as to this Anisty affair last
night"
Under the stimulus of the cham
payne, to say naught of his relief at
having evaded the ordeal OF the cut
lery, Hickey discoursed variously and
a; length upon the engrossing subject
of Anisty, gentleman-cracksman, while
the genial counterpart of Daniel Matt
land listened with apparent but decep-
tive apathy, and had much ado to keep
from laughing in his guests face as
the latter, perspiringly earnest, un.
folded his plans for laying the burg
lar by the heels.
From time to time, and at inter
walls steadily decreasing, the hand of
the host sought the neck of the bottle
inclining it carefully above the thin
stemmed glass that Hickey kept in al
most constant motion. And the de-
tective's fatuous loquacity flowed as
the contents of the bottle ebbed.
Yet, as the minutes wore on, the
| burglar began to be conscious that II
was but a shallow well of information
and amusement that he pumped. The
| game, fascinating with it's spice OF
daring as 1t had primarily been, began
to pail. At length the masquerade
| calculated the hour as ripe for what
he had contemplated from the begin
ning and interrupted Hickey with
scant consideration, in the middle OF 6
most interesting exposition.
You'll pardon me, I'm sure, If
trouble you again for the time
The fat red fingers sought uncer
tainly for the timepiece; the bottl,

nounced, was ten minutes to two.

care to-ah-contempla
Hickey's eyes glstened. "Of course,
If yeh want it kept quiet" he sug-
gested, significantly.
Anisty's hand sought his pocket
How much?"
We'll, | guess l can leave that to
you. Yen oughttuh know how bad yeh

"As calculate 1t, then, fifty ought to
be enough for the boys; and fifty will
repay you for your trouble"
The end of Hickey's expensive pan
e.ela was tilted independently toward
the ceiling. Shouldn't wonder If it
would" he murmured, gratitied.
Anisty stuffed something bulky back
into his pocket and wadded another
something-green and yellow colored
Into little pill, which he presently
flicked carelessly across the table. The
detectives large notified paw closed
over it and moved toward his waist
coat.
LAS was sayin," he resumed, I'm
sorry yeh don't see yer way to givin
us a hand. But p'rhaps yeh're right
Still, II the citizens d only give us a

'Ah, but what gives you your liv
ing, Hickey" argued the amateur
sophist. What but the activities OF
the criminal element? If society com
bined with you for the elimination OF
crime, what would become of your
| job?"
He rose and wrung the disconsolate
one warmly by the hand. But there
am sorry to have to hurry you away
Now that you know where

At another time, and with another
man, Anisty would not have ventureC
to play his catch so roughly; but, al
he had reckoned, the comfortable state
OF mind induced by an unexpected adj
ditiOn to his income and a quart o
champagne, had dulled the official ap
prehensions OF Sergt. Hickey.
Mumbling vague acceptance OF tn,
too-genial invitation, the exalted de
tectiye rose and ambled cheerful,
down the room and out of the door.
Anisty lit another cigarette an,
contemplated the future with satisfac
ton. AS a diplomat he was inclined L

things taken under mature considers
ton, the conclusion was inevitable tina
he was the very devil of fellow. Wit
what consurnmate skill he had playe

Nuts a Good Meat Substitute.

Nuts are nutritious and If eaten at
proper times prove a good substitute
for meat
At this season, however, they are
not generally of good quality, and
should only be served sailed, or in

OF heat sweeping through his being.
