fore baking, or If the oven is cool the

Should be eaten hot right from the
oven.
Mushroom Soup-Quart of milk, pint
mushrooms, two tablespoons butter,
tablespoon -four, minced onion, salt and
pepper to taste. Stew the mushrooms
and onion with half cup of milk till
tender, then mash and rub them

applauded her with our fingers
crossed, and two very thoughtful la
dies began to talk fast to Cleopatra
so as to take her mind off the piano.
Then the Bingledingle brothers,
known as Oscar and Victor, opened
fire on US with a couple of mandolins.
Oscar and Victor play entirely by
hand. They don't know one note from
another, and they can prove it when
they begin to play
Their mother believes them to be
prodigies of genius She is alone in
her belief.
After Oscar and Victor had chased
one OF Sousa's marches all over the
parlor and finally left it unconscious
under the sofa, they bowed and ceased
firing, and then they went out In the
dining-room and filed their storage
batteries with ice cream and cake.
This excitement was followed by an
other catastrophe named Minnehaha
Jones, who picked up a couple of so
prano songs and screeched them at us.
Minnehaha is one of those fearless
singers who vocalize without a safety
valve. She always keeps her eyes
closed, so she can't tell just when her
audience gets up and leaves the room.
The next treat was a mixed duet on
the flute and trombone between Clar-
ence Smith and Lancelot Diffenberger,
with violin obligato on the side by
Hector Tompkins.
Never before have / seen music so
roughly handled.
1t looked like walk-over for Clar-
enoe, but in the fifth round he blew
couple of green notes and Lancelot
got the decision.
Then, for consolation prize, Hec-
tor was led out in the middle of the
room, where he assassinated Mascag-
mis- Cavalleria Rusticana so thorough
ly that it will never to able to enter
a fifty-cent table d'hcte restaurant
again.
Then Cornucopia Coogan arose and
gave us few select recitations.
Just as she started to tell us that
Curfew would not ring tonight Uncle
Peter winked at me, and we sneaked
out and began to drown our sorrow.
Those musicales would be all to the
good if the music didn't suffocate
them.

over to the piano and began to knock
it's teeth out
The way Cleopatra went after one
of Beethoven's sonatas and slapped it's
ears was pitiful.
Cleopatra learned to injure piano
at conservatory of music, and she
could take a fugo by Victor Hugo and
leave it for dead in about thirty-two
bars.
- tie finish Of the sonata we all
applauded Cleopatra just as loudly as
we could, In the hope that she would
faint with surprise and stop playing;
but no such luck.
She tied a couple of chords together
and swung that piano like pair of In
diar clubs.
First she did my Old Kentucky
Home" with variations, until every
body who had home began to weep
for fear 1t might get to be like her
Kentucky home.
The variations were where she
made a mistake and struck the right
note.
Then Cleopatra moved up to the
squeaky end of the piano and gave an
imitation of Swiss music box.
1t sounded to me like a Swiss
cheese.
Presently Cleopatra ran out of raw
material and subsidized, while we all

remained eight days, and before she

The guard came through, and l
spoke to him about the window. He
said, "The first time l see the presi-

dow, but I only succeeded in opening
my collar; so then l opened my mouth
and made short but spicy announce
ment, whereupon the old lady in the

Just then the train pulled into a sta
ton which l hadn't paid for, but

Christian Soldiers league. and it's

1t made an awful hit with Uncle
Peter to see me cough up those two
bones, but l said nothing and made
good.

me ii looked more like a fight
With the help of Aunt Martha and
Alice Grey, my wife arranged the pro-

the rest of the family.
1t was such surprise to me that
felt like doing a glide to the wood

The Flight From Scotland.

From today's papers it appears
that no fewer than 4,400 emigrants
left the Clyde on Saturday by various
liners for the United States and Can
ada and for London on the way to
Queensland OF these a thousand
were navvies. Last Saturday alone
Great Britain lost as many Scotsmen
as would suffice to people a good
sized town. The Boer war cost us
10000 lives. Four weeks of similar
emigration will cause to Scotland
alone loss almost as large as that
which was caused to the British En-
pire during three years of war. A
Liberal writer has attributed the fear
full emigration from Scotland to the
grouse kept by the landowners. This
argument is erroneous, because the
bulk of the Scottish emigrants come
from the towns, and they are driven
from the towns by the lowness OF
free-trade wages.-Letter In London

The Worth Of the voice.

How wonderful is the human voice!
It is indeed the organ of the soul!
The intellect of man sits enthroned
visibly upon his forehead and in his
eye, and the heart of man is written
upon his countenance. But the soul
reveals itself in the voice only; IS
God revealed himself to the prophet
of old in the still, small voice, and in
the voice from the burning bush. The
soul of man is audible, not visible.
A sound alone betrays the flowing of
the eternal fountain, invisible to man.
