Kitto,s TrIumnhant VIII.

Kitto, the master OF oriental learn
Ing. lost his hearing at IL, and his
fathers circumstances became so
wretched that young Kitto was sent to
the poorhouse, where he learned shoe
making. He piteously begged his IA
Their to take him out of the poorhouse,
saying that he would live on blackber-
ries and field turnips and be willing to
sleep on a hayrick. What obstacles
could dampen the enthusiasm of such
ardor! What impossibilities could
withstand such a resolute will!

Jay Cookies First Job.

Jay Cooke was born in Sandusky,
o., Aug 10, 1921. In those early days
SaLdusky was practically an Indian
village, and Jay Cooke was the first
white child born In the settlement
The name OF Jay was chosen by his
father as an evidence of the high es-
TEEN in which Chief Justice Jay was
held by the Cooke family. Although
Cook, Sr.. in the years when Jay was
obtaining an education, was a very
successful lawyer in Sandusky, the
boy did not take kindly to legal pur-
suits, but was rather inclined to ques-
tons Of business import and finance.
The start of his business life was
made at the very early age of IA
years. and was the result of a chance
remark by his father who had sold the
family home. The money received by
Cooke, ST., was in fresh, crisp bills.
These bills were exhibited to Jay and
his brothers, and the father Joking.
ly told the boys they would be
obliged to work now as they were
without home. Young Jay took the
incident seriously and at once applied
for position as clerk In a new store
then opening In Sandusky. He was
given the position, Immediately left
school and began his business appren
ticeship.-Moody' Magazine.

Ordered to Muzzle Rooster.

In Mount Vernon. one of the sub
urbs north Of New York a man was
arrested the other day because his
rooster had disturbed his neighbors
by Growing at the break of day. AL
though there is no ordinance in the
village which prohibits the keeping of
chickens on a mans premises. the
owner Of the aforesaid rooster was
found guilty of maintaining a nuis-
ance and warned to keep his rooster
from Growing early in the morning
like other ROSTERS in less sensitive
neighborhoods. Now the amateur
chicken raiser has the choice between
muzzling his rooster or exchanging
him for one of a "crowless" brand.

THE USEFUL APPLE
NuM6ERLEss WAYS IN WHICH 1T
MAY BE SERVED.
Most Popular Of All the Fruits, II
Lends Itself to Some Of the
Most Savory Table
Delicacles.

Baked apples may be varied in sew
eral delicious ways. A little honey
and butter can be buried in the hol-
lows after removing the cores. Chopped
nutmeats, mixed with thin strips of
lemon and orange rind, may take the
place Of the honey. The tops should
be sprinkled with sugar and nutmeg
or cinnamon.
Apple meringues are merely glori-
ned baked apples. FIJI the hollows
with ounce jelly, cover with fluffy
meringue and brown slightly in the
oven.
Apples make ideal cups to hold in
dividual services of certain salads.
They are appropriate for a waldorf
salad or minced apples, celery and
nutmeats, for one of minced peppers,
celery and tomatoes or one of sliced
bananas and nutmeats dressed with
mayonnaise. Rosy apples with a
glossy skin are the best for these
cups.
This unique salad may be served
either in apple or tomato cups. Use
equal quantities of minced celery, ap-
pies and mild green peppers. Season
well with salt and pepper and add
enough rlinced onion to suit the taste.
Avoid the use of too much onion, as
1t coarsens the salad. Dress this
with a nicely seasoned mayonnaise
and pile into the cups. If tomato
cups are used add the tomato pulp
scooped from them. To achieve com
plete success the vegetables should
be chopped very fine.
An apple tapioca is especially nice
II served with cream. Wash a cup of
tapioca, pour six cupfuls of boiling wa.
ter over it and cook until the tapioca
balls are perfectly clear Measure six
cups Of peeled, quartered and uncooked
apples and add to them some grated
lemon rind and a cupful of sugar. Mix
with the tapioca, seasoning with a
scant teaspoonful of salt Bake in a
slow oven and serve either hot or
cold
A cupful of grated apples OF supe-
rior quality may be used to flavor ice
cream. Grated apples are sometimes
added to pancake batter Better yet,
however, are the sweet pancakes and
waffles spread with a thin layer of
apple sauce favored with lemon.
Melted apple jelly favored with ounce
may be used instead of the sauce.
Spread the fruit over the buttered and
sugared waffies or cakes and pile
them one upon another. Serve at
luncheon or for dessert at dinner.
An old-fashioned recipe in which
apple sauce is used in a cake calls
for a cupful of sour apple sauce. a
cupful of sugar. half a cupful of but.
ter, cupful of raisins, two cupfuls
of flour, teaspoonful of soda, and Gin.
namon and cloves to suit the taste
Stir the soda into the sauce and then
proceed as usual when making cake
The rule calls for an egg. Another
way of utilizing apple sauce Is in q
dessert jelly. Prepare an apple sauce
of superior flavor, heat It on the stove
after straining, add enough dissolved
gelatine to stiffen it and a little sugar
to sweeten, If needed. Just before II
hardens. or, rather, while it is hard
ening, fold a few stiff whipped whites
of eggs through it, so that it presents
a spongy appearance. Serve very cold
with cream.

SAVING pillow Cases

Every housewife knows how soon
pillow cases wear out. but it took a
remarkably clever woman to see at
glance how she could prolong their
lives. When her pillow cases are be-
ginning to show signs of wear she
takes out the seam at the bottom Of
the case and turns it round, so that
the side seams come directly up in
the middle. Then she re-seams the
bottom
1t is easy to see that this will bring
the side of the pillow under the head.
where the wear will come, so the pill
low case will last longer. A better idea
could not be found. and who minds
sewing up a pillow case seam?

The JOY of Life.

Life is not enjoyable if there be no
duty, no work, no occupation, no
serious employment. LIES highest
ideals, noblest pleasures. sweetest
enjoyments are missed by the idle,
who are often dragged down into the
lowest currents. In food and play,
slumber and holiday, the industrious
and laborious experience the keenest
zest and deepest Joy, while to the idle
these are spiritless and t~asteless. 1t
were not the best aim in life assured
ly to do without work-not the
noblest to pose for admiration or to
waste the precious moments In pur-
suit of dreams for pleasure. The
most miserable are they who have
nothing to do. lney are miserable
themselves, and render all around
miserable.

Married Men Live Longest.

A New York statistician has igur-
ed ii out that connubial bliss aids
longevity, bachelors as a rule dying
young. Subjoined are the figures OF
DR.. William II. Guilfoy, Register OF
Records for New York:
Roughly speaking there were l.
$4,000 single persons in New York
last year-that means males OF all
ages, including infants. OF these
3O.7 in a thousand died. There were
10000 females with a death rate
of 1915 per 1000. or lower than the
male rate by almost so per cent.
I'm the same year there were $780,
900 married men in the city, with a
death rate of nearly 10 per 1000, and
$4,000 married women, OF whom
1888 in 1000 died. So, among men,
only nineteen benedicts against thirty
bachelors in 1000 dead. On the sur
face this indicates a difference OF over
35 per cent in favor of the married,
but that would not be a fair assum-
ption, for the figures for single per-
sons include all ages.
"But the apparent difference In the
death rate of unmarried and married
women is by no means so great-Iess
than two per 1000 in fact. So, While
| am not prepared to say that marri-
ed women are no healthier and have
no greater probability of life thar I'M
married ones. without going more
deeply into the question, there is not
the same amount of evidence in their
favor as In the case of married men.
The conclusion appears to be ineyi'
