of any kind Of cereal food. He was
weak little chap and we were puz-

'One lucky day we tried Grape
Nuts. Well, you never saw o child

good to see him. From that day on
1t seemed as though we could almost

Nuts for breakfast and supper, and I
think he would have liked the food

THE difference in his appearance is
something wonderful.

JeIIIed Veal Loaf,

For these warm days, when meat
is hard to prepare and have it ap-
petizing, I have found this recipe
most excellent, ready for six o'clock
dinner, or on Saturday for Sundays
dinner:
Four pounds veal stew with joints;
after washing place in stew kettle,
cover with boiling water, and cook
slowly three hours or more, until
meat is tender. When half done add
one small onion cut fine, one table
spoonful salt, and enough pepper to
suit individual taste. When veal is
done remove from the fire, but leave
meat in the liquid until cool enough
to put through food chopper; after it
is cut place meat in narrow bread pan
and pour the liquid over it. Stir well,
then smooth on top. 1t will jelly
and makes a delicious cold meat.

HOME OF ANDRE AT BATH
Historical Personage's House Is StiD
Standing, and Oddly Enough
1t Is No. %.

Bath, England, is a city of ancient
mansions, SO Major Andres house Is
still standing in the Circus, which
consists of three blocks, in which
every house has at some time been
occupied by some historical person
age. Oddly enough Andres house is
No. %. 1t is exactly like all the 9TH
er houses in the Circus, where every
building Is the exact duplicate Of the
other. red brick, with weather-stained
white cornices, dilapidated window
boxes flied with sickly geraniums that
rarely show blossom, and the inev-
liable ivy trained over the front. An
air of profound melancholy and musty
gentility broods over these crumbling
mansions, each one of which can tell
a tragic story of fallen greatness.
They are tenanted by people in
state of decayed gentility, mostly re-
tired army and navy officers, or their
widows. with a sprinkling of profes.
sors, doctors and music teachers.
At. the end of the Circus and facing
up the street is the house occupied
by Napoleon III. through part of his
exile. The interior is partly burned
out and full of rates. Louis XVIII.
resided near, in house afterward the
abode of Lady Hamilton, and said to
be haunted by her ghost. Nelson and
Charles X. OF France also lived in the
Circus.
Just at the gates of Lord Dudley's
park, near by, is another haunted
house. 1t was owned by the first
earls brother, a fighting, drinking,
swashbuckling guardsman, who when
in his cups and hard up for money to
pay his gambling debts, sold his
beautiful young wife to the earl. The
house is fine old red brick structure
yelled in ivy. The guardsman's unholy
revels are said to be repeated there
nightly. and carriages are heard
rolling in and out Of the weedy old
garden until the wee sma' hours"
Andres house also Is reputed to be
haunted. not by the British officer, but
by yelled woman in white, who
walks the halls at midnight wringing
her hands.

HUNT PAINTERS WITH DOGS

Vancouver island harbors a large

south of Alert bay, is one of the best
places for panthers, and there is also
magnificent duck shooting to be had
there. Four of us had taken our ~
bore shotguns and gone off after some
duck. When we set out one of the
hounds followed us, and as he was
great favorite we did not send him
back We had some fair sport with
the duck, although we shot very bad

enough to carry Half way back to

Meanwhile we were all four running

On Goinu to Sleep.

How do we go to sleep? How does
Mother Nature charm away our con
seriousness? First of all, she throws
her spell on those centres of our bod
les that preside over the muscular sys
tenn. causing one group of muscles
after another gradually to collapse.
Thereafter, various powers Of mind
succumb in regular order. First. We
lose attention and judgement. Then
memory goes, and imagination wan.
ders away in reveries of its own. Ideas
of time and space cease to control
thought as gentle sleep-the nurse Of
our life-draws nearer. Then comes
the turn of the special senses, begin,
ming with sight-eyelids close and
eyeballs turn upward and inward, as
if to shut out all light, the pupils con
tracing more and more as slumber

fades away. The heart beats and

degrees, and the body loses three
times less heat than when awake.

SURPRISES IN OIL INDUSTRY
Since Time of brakes Discovery Ev-
cry New Field Has Added
Something New.

Since the oil industry began it has
discovery we'll was surprise to most
persons. Since that time every new
field has added something new. For
several years every individual we'll
was a revelation. Peculiarities were
observed not found in their predeces-
sors. Then the new things were found
in localities. 1t is the same way yet.
Oil refuses to abide by the rules and
freak" wells persist The driller Of
long experience is constantly expect
ing something different from anything
he has ever encountered. 1t is this
novelty that makes the oil business
so fascinating but the same thing in
creases the hazard.
The latest reported oddity is the
discovery of heavy oil in the Caddo
deep sand. The opening Of a high
grade oil field in that locality was a
surprise to all and to many a dis
agreeable one. But when that grade
of crude had come to be the expected
thing from the deep sand there, well
is drilled in along Tide the field that
produces oil of 80 degrees gravity
from the same sand that yields the oil
of high gravity. A few days earlier
a we'll found the light oil in shall
low sand and then caved in and was
spoiled. So it will probably go to the
end of the chapter. Science can guess
at the probabilities below the surface
but until a means is devised to see
into the earth for several thousand
feet, as the X-ray enables us to see
through a sheet of steel, the oil bust
ness will be uncertain and full oil
surprises. 1t is hazardous in all Its
branches and will continue to be.-Oi

Sterilization by Light.

Milk is now being sterilized in
Paris by submitting it to the action
of ultraviolet rays, thus avoiding the
use of heat or treatment by chemical
antiseptic substances. 1t has long
been known that light without heat
can destroy micro-organisms, and in
1893 it was proved that from the
ultraviolet part of the spectrum there
proceeded rays that had a bacterial
effect 1t was further shown that
glass stopped these rays, which, how
ever, passed easily through quartz,
1t has taken over seven years to turn
this knowledge to general use, but
now in Paris an apparatus has been
made by which ultraviolet rays,
through quartz, sterilize 1872 gallons of
water an hour. After much trouble
the sterilizing of milk has been sue
cessfully accomplished, although its
opaqueness was at first difficulty.

vinegar to cover. For each pound of
fruit, as you put it into jar, add
three-quarters of pound of granu-

ing to taste. Stir the mass every day

'LOST' NOT FOR Him
PICKING UP THINGS GETS STAN
DISH INTO TROUBLE.
Had Hard Time Making People Believe
in His Ronesty-Wife Lays Down
Few Rules for His
Conduct.

Twice Standish came near getting
into trouble because he picked up lost
property in the street. The articles
really were lost and Standish honestly
found them, but he had hard work te
make anybody believe it. After his
second experience his wife laid down
few rules for his guidance:
IF you should find million dollars
piled up on the sidewalk" she said
you must just walk right past and
never offer to return one of them tc
the owner"
How about keeping a few plunks
for MYSELF" said Standish.
Mrs. Standish did not smile. ''If thai
is the way you talked to other people
when they accused you of theft she
said, Il don't wonder everybody
thought you were guilty"
Never mind" returned Standish
its all over now. l never expect tc
find anything again."
And he did not find anything for six
months. At last, however, he saw al
enameled cigar case lying in bypatf
forth and back which they were walk
ing in Central park. He stopped to
pick it up. His wife pulled him back
DON'T" she cried. Remember
what happened to you twice before"
Standish rubbed his cheek ruefully
Il hate like the mischief to let it lie
there he said. eff l don't pick it VI
somebody else will"
Very well, let them. If other people
choose to so to Jail that is their look
out"
1T is fine cigar case all the same,
Standish grumbled as they walked on
1T looks good deal like mine"
That is all the more reason why
you should not NEEDLE. You have nc
earthly use for two cigar cases ex
actly alike"
Standish walked along in stubborn
silence. When they neared home he
was seized with sudden craving for
smoke. He felt in one pocket, then
in another, for his cigar case.
