lea of the Scotch sailors remains The resolution
called for an appropriation of $4,000 to pay the
expenses Then the fun began. The Knockers In
the house declared that the commodore was buried
deep in a cemetery under million-dollar business
structures on the Rue Grande Aux Bellies or on
the Rue des Ecluses Saint Martin several
other rues which they could not pronounce.
Congress in its humor had the aid and Jocose
search and made the most Of It, And here recol
lection brings blush Of contrition to the cheeks
of who followed in the train. Members said
and correspondents wrote that the French doubtless
grady would allow their business palaces to be I'M
dermined and toppled to ruin on the payment OF
$4,000 Of Yankee cash.
If Yankee cheek, the representatives said, aided
by French poteness, could accomplish the purpose
of building demolition, there would be small chance
Of separating Jones bones with any certainty Of
identity from those Of the French sleepers In the
old cemetery. One scoffer suggested with fine irony
that there might be a bit Of the original Scotch
skull left, and that Sidney Smiths rule might be
applied to make positive the Identification
Mr. Rainey undisturbed. He was not even
moved to surrender when suggestion was made that
II the $4,000 were sent over to some French grave
digger he would find the old sea dogs bones and
sailors autograph in the tiba of the left leg to
do It,
1t was two years on the way but the last laugh
came, and 1t was Mr.. Rainey who had It, His
colleagues made amend for their scofing and their
scorr'ng and another Jester OF the past writes

THE COOLEST PLACE ON EARTH

What is said to be the coolest place on the globe
is the region Of Verkholensk, Siberia. Here is a
convict station, but during most of the year no
guards are needed to keep the prisoners from run
ming away, for in the more portions Of the
winter no living creature can remain in the open,
and during the three most severe months, when
the temperature sometimes falls to IS degrees be-
low zero, no one dares to venture out for more
than few moments at time.
Ordinary steel tools will snap like glass, and
unseasoned wood becomes almost hard az
steel When one breathes powder like the very
finest snow falls at ones feet 1t is said that there
are less forms of Insect life here than elsewhere
in the world, and some of those found are not
found elsewhere, seemingly having been created
especially to iEhabit such a frigid region.
Some Of the siglal-service officials declare that
most Of the severe cold waves that sweep across
the North American continent have their origin in
Verkholensk The wind blows q perfect gale almost
all the time and that discomfort, added to the low
temperature, would certainly make this very I'M
pleasant place in which to spend the winter

Lamb liver is a delicacy which is
hot served as often as 1t might be.
The chef Of famous hotel gives the
following rule for preparing it: Cut
the liver into slices, lay the slices,
carefully separated from each other,
on a platter and pour over them al
most enough olive oil to cover them.
Sprinkle with minced parsley and
let them stand half an hour, then
drain them, dredge with salt and pep
per, roll them in grated bread crumbs
and boil them over clear fire or I'M
der the steady flame of gas range.
When done serve them with maitre
d'hotel butter.
