Heroes in a Lighthouse

newly made widow saw that the light did not
revolve as it should and so was liable to be mis-
taken by passing ships for another light.
Once more she mounted into the tower to
make the machinery work, but her efforts were
useless. The machinery was out OF order and she
did not know how to fix it. %hen she descended
and sent the two oldest children up into the
tower-one was ten and the other seVen-and all
that night, alone in the little lamp room, up at
the top of the lighthouse, from 900 p. m. until
seven the next morning, the two children kept
the machinery in motion, while the mother below
with the two smaller children, prepared the body
of the father for burial.

lector of the district, adds Il have still to pay
the $10.S3 of the keepers wages due from April

THE PUNGENT PEPPER.

The delightful pepper will soon be

been canned successfully, we may
have the piquant flavor in many dishes

ting them up in their season.
When used as cups or cases to hold
salads or meat mixtures they add to
the flavor as we'll as the appearance.
A remnant of chicken minced and a
bit of white sauce added which has
been made of cream is a most tooth
some dish.
Brains are almost as good as sweet
breads and when used in creamed
dishes, in pepper shells, it is difficult
to tell the difference. The expense is
much less.
When preparing the peppers for fill
ing, wash carefully and cut off the
stem end, remove the seeds and white
pulp. Cut thin slice from the other
end and the peppers will stand firmly.
Parboil them for five to ten minutes,
and they are then ready for any fill
ing. Put little water in the pan, ar
range the peppers in it and put into
hot oven to bake for twenty minutes.
There is scarcely a salad that is not
improved by the addition of a few
slices of green or red pepper.
Sliced tomato and cucumbers, shred
ed green pepper and chopped onion
with French dressing is salad that is
most popular

coast of Britanny, which relates the following
story

her husband and four little children alone, the

The keeper grew worse. At 700 p. m his
death agony began. 1t was then time to light the
lamp. The wife, leaving her children beside her
dying husband mounted into the tower to light

SEASoNABLE DISHES.

These hot days when meat dishes
seem too heavy for the digestion, one
may turn to various made dishes
which are sufficiently satisfying.
Rice is such nutritious and easily
digested food and in combination with
other foods and favors furnishes quite
a variety Of diet.
In cooking rice. 1t should be thor

to prevent the water from cooling, and

Not "Made in GERMANY"

The inquiry which the board of
food and drug inspectors is about to
make in the beer industry with a
view to ascertaining, among other
things, whether domestic beers are
made to masquerade as imported"
was suggested some years ago by a
distinguished German actor. After a
performance at the Irving Place thea
ter in New York he went with the
late Heinrich Conreid and some of the
latters friends to a club, where a
supper was literally moistened with
German beer The actor drank his
share and said that he liked it, but
that he hoped to take some of the
same kind back home as Souvenir
of American industry and credulity." :"
