PaprIka Chicken.

Select a tender young chicken, and,
after 1t has been cut into joints, rub
the flesh with salt and powder 1t with
paprika. When thus prepared, put
the chicken into a sauce pan with q
can Of tomatoes and cook them to-
gether, without adding a drop Of wa

this point, arrange the chicken on q
hot platter, add cupful of cream to
the tomato, season to taste with pap
rika, add a little salt. Il necessary,
and pour this rich sauce over the
chicken just before it is served. Al
though this Is an extremely simple
dish, 1t would be difficult to conceive
of more dslectable method Of serv-
ing chicken.

PURSUIT OF THE TIGER
ENTAILS CARE WHICH MARKS
SPORT WITH GRAVITY.
Safety Of Ones Companions Is Always
Matter Of Great concern-Dan-
ger Invests Hunt With
Fascination.

Perhaps some of the fascination OF
tiger shooting lies in the mischief that
results from bad shooting or methods.
This entails a carefulness which In.
vests the sport with a gravity, mark
ing it as apart from other shooting.
For first and foremost stands the
safety Of ones companions, whether
they be beaters, trackers or elephants.
Shoot dead or leave we'll alone" Is
counsel of perfection which should
ever be borne in mind, even If not al
ways attafnable. With the tiger lying
dead or gone away unwounded the
trouble is ended until you wish to
start it again. With wounded beast
afoot the trouble is hardly yet begun
save in the matter of getting beaters
and such like up trees or out OF dan
gers way elsewhere.
With elephants, especially howdah
elephants, pursuit may begin at once
or be delayed, according to cireum'
stances Without them an hour or
two's interval or more on occasion
should elapse before starting on what
may be a pleasant or an unpleasant

taste in these matters. But duty II

Pretty Thin,


The tail-of-the-season reform that
swept over Coney island might well
have considered the welfare of the
wretChed horses which are used for
the ''dime-ride" business. When the
season closes they are auctioned off,
and are knocked down to the bidders
at next to nothing. Generally they
are so skeleton like that they are
practically useless.
At the end of this season a buyer
bought an exceptionally attenuated
specimen after he had been coaxed to
bid on him by numerous promises
made by the auctioneer, who wound
up by saying:
Now, look a'here. boss, if you buy
this hawse an you amt pleased with
the animile, you just bring him back
and get your money-see?"
Yes, retorted the buyer; "but this
is the last day of the sale, and the
beast is so blamed thin he may die
on my hands. Then, supposing | did
bring him back, you probably wouldn't
be here to receive him
oh. WELL" blandly replied the aur.
tioneer, IF you do bring him back
and we amt here, you kin just shove
it under the door. r.'-Lippincotts.

dwarfed by their new sisters and rele-

surpasses all the great ships which
have gone before.
The world has scarcely become ac-

a synonym for large objects, when
two great ships, the Olympic and the
Titanic, were designed to surpass all

Manuscript of Pepys, Diary.

Pepys' library is of great interest
and value, but the six volumes con-
tanning the diary-called by its au.
thor his journal-are immeasnrably
the most interesting and the most
valuable of the books preserved In 1t.
These volumes are uniformly
bound, but slightly unequal in size.
Although the diary was written day
by day, it is a marvel of neatness and
looks as If it was carefully written out
at one time. Even in those places
where Pepys describes himself as be-
ing careless In his writing there IL
little difference observable.-Wheat-

.Jealousy In Art.

Arnold Boecklin, the celebrated Ger.
man impressionist artist. who had
three of his paintings in our Metro
politan Museum of Arts two years ago
at the time of the exhibition OF mod
ern German art, was blessed with an
exceedingly jealous wife. So care
full was she to have no temptations
beset his path that she never allowed
him the luxury of woman model,
sut insisted on posing herself for all
his life studies. AS she had a pudsy
German figure, Boecklin's art was &C
cordinely handicapped.
