An English View of Us.

How utterly different is the way
the Americans view efficiency and in
efficiency! They go for efficiency, we
for character. We lately heard of a
manager of a company in the states
who was tried and convicted for pecu-
lating large sum of money which
should have gone to the shareholders
He was sent to prison, and his Eng
fish friends-with whom he had been
very popular-thought they had seen
the last of him. But he was no soon
er out of prison than the company in
stantly took him on again at an en-
HANGED salary. The English were
amazed, confounded; but it was ex-
planned to them that to throw away
the services of such clever, extreme
ly efficient man would have been ar
rant folly. He is now on the best of
terms with the company and socially
is quite one of the most popular men
of his city. Here we often overlook,
even ostracise, a man because he is
capable; in the states a capable man
is not ostracised even if scoundrel.

FreckieS to Tan.

We hymned the freckle year ago.
In lyric periods we demonstrated that
it is beauty spot on the face of man
kind. What words are left to sing of
tan? For tan is to the freckle as an
apple orchard in bloom is to a single
blossom, as the ocean is to one white
cap, as the armament to a single star.
Tan Is the freckle expanded, subli-
mated, softened, raised to the tenth
degree. How mysterious is it's crea-
doubtfully and far
away. First, guessed by
faint auroral bushes" Like all things
beautiful, tan springs from the travail
of pain. 1t blossoms from the burn"
the first result of the suns rays. It is
as if the sun first tested the temper Of
the individual whom he Is soon to
lacquer with his unapproachable pig
ment. Who would think that first
blush-blazing face, crimson neck,
scarlet ear tips-could ever lead to
beauty?-Co1lier's.

NEW LUNCH DISHES
coNcocTloNs TO TEMPT JApED.
SUMMER APPETITE.
Welcome Changes From the Gus
temary Anchovy Paste or Pate
de Foie Gras-Are Worth
Trying. K

Here are q few connections that
bear trying, as they are a change from
customary anchovy paste or pate de
foie gras: 49,.
Crate and mix to paste two ounces
of dry American cheese, dessert
spoonful of essence of anchovy, a ta-
blespoonful of butter, the yolk of two
eggs, pinches of salt and paprika;
make diamonds of toast, butter on
both sides while hot, spread thickly
with the cheese paste and bake in a
hot oven for few minutes. Serve
very hot.
More unusual are rounds of but
tered toast, heaped with mixture of
picked shrimps seasoned with the
juice of an orange, a tablespoonful of
butter, little nutmeg, salt and cay
enne pepper. Make the mixture very
hot. The toast is put in a hot oven
for minute and served with a gar
nish of fried parsley.
Herring roe, seasoned with pepper
and salt, rolled in slice of bacon
each and fried for Is minutes, then
served on rounds of hot crouton, is
new and delicious.
Shad roe can be used in the same
way by cutting the roe into sections
suited to the toast. Garnish with
lemon.
The small red and yellow tomatoes
are made into an artistic appetizer
Cut bread into rounds two inches in
diameter and an eighth of an inch
thick, and fry in butter until delicate
brown. Spread when cold with paste
made by mixing butter and Parmesan
cheese. Put a tomato on top of each
round, sprinkle with grated Parmesan
and make a border of timely minced
cress.
Sardine eggs can be used as an ap-
petizer or as a salad. Cut hard boiled
eggs lengthwise, remove yolks and fill
with skinned and boned sardlnes-or
