the congratulation extending since

give man the big-head who has

abroad the congratulatlon come
with better taste and fraught with

Mountains of Moab

Most travellers who visit the Holy
Land content themselves with a visit
to that restricted part west of Jordan.
The mountainous regions of Moab as
seen by them from Jerusalem are lost
in a purple haze that constantly hangs
over them, and the great stretches be-
yond are covered in mystery. This
is true partly because Of the fewer
historical incidents connected with the
eastern regions, but mainly on account
of the. great abyss Of the Jordan val
ley that has always acted as a barrier.
Few who descend into the valley 1900
feet below sea level undertake to climb
the hills beyond, which rise to a
height of 5000 feet. Though it's glory
is far outshone by that of western
Palestine, still, both in the old and the
new dispensations, it has a history of
its own and from an economic stand
point will always enter very largely
into the life of Observation-Disclosures

Victor Hugo had a real double in
flesh and blood, who exploited his
physical resemblance to the man Of
genius. He cut his beard like Hugo's,
copied the masters dress in its small
est details and so for eighteen years
divided with the master the admira-
ton Of the public. His especial de-
light was to pose in a poetical attitude
in front of a Punch and Judy show
He did this at a particular spot every
Thursday afternoon for years, thor
oughly enjoying the murmurs of curl
osity and applause proceeding from
the gaping crowd which he deceived.
We do not hear that he reaped any
other reward but his pleasure.

troglycerin and gun cotton mixed to-
gether with a little petroleum Jelly
make cordite. 1t is curious to see the
two deadly explosives being kneaded

the same unconcern as dough is knead-
ed for bread. Indeed, machines SINH
lar to those used in bakeries take up
the work and knead the buff colored
cordite paste for seven hours. Then it
Is forced through molds and issues in
long cords-hence the name cordite-
the thickness of which is varied ac-
cording to the weapon in which it is
to be used
For big guns cordite is half an inch
thick and cut into lengths Of thirty
seven inches. Rather more than It
thousand of these cordite sticks pack
ed in two bundles make up the car
fridge for a twelve inch gun. For the
rifle cordite is pressed INTO a very thin
string, like the finest macaroni. 'aand
sixty of these strands one inch and a
half long make the neat little bundle
which lies inside the cartridge case.
For some European armies cordite is
made In Rat thin strips like whale

Old English Recipe For the Famous
Soupe a la Crecy

Old English Recipe For the Famous
Soups la Crecy.
In the ILLUSTRATED London Cookery
Book" by Frederick Bishop. late cui-
siner to st. James palace Earl Grey.
the Marquis of Stafford, Baron Roth
schild, Earl Norbury, Captain Dun
combe and many of the first families
of Great Britain QS52), we find this
recipe for soupe la Crecy:
"Cut half q pound of lean ham in
dice, three onions, four turnips, twelve
carrots (the outer side red only, a head
of celery, fagot of sweet herbs, two
blades of mace, six cloves, a bay leaf
and half a pound of salt butter. Fry
all down in stewpan until they get a
little brown; then add some second
stock and stew until all the roots are
quite tender; then rub it through q
fanny sieve or fanny cloth with two
long spoons. If very thick add more
stock. Season with cayenne and black
pepper and salt and a good bit of sug-
ar. Send up on q napkin some nice
fried bread cut in small dice and not
greasy"
This is far less elaborate than it
sounds and is, indeed, in the main the
recognized recipe for the royal soup.
The spice is, if anything, tride over
done, and the carrots want to be well
chosen, as the slightest stringiness de-
stroys the homogeneity of the COM
pound. The bread dice are important
