Chanoed His Mind.

When Representative Brown was
practicing law at Newton he fell out
with the district judge over some trivi-
al matter. One day the court wanted
him as a witness in a case and sent
the sheriff after him.
"Just tell the judge to go to -"
said Brown when the sheriff told him
to come to court.
"An right" said the sheriff.
The latter wheeled around and start
ed toward the courthouse. Brown
turned and looked at him. The longer
he looked the more convinced was he
he had made a mistake. So he started
after the sheriff. But the sheriff was
too fast for him and reached the court
room unmolested.
MAY it please the court" said the
sheriff, "Mr. Brown told me to tell
the court to 60 to -"
Just then Brown rushed through the
door to the courtroom, and before any
thing could be said or done by the
Judge Brown remarked:
"May it please your honor, l have
changed my mind. You needn't go
I'll testify"
The incident caused so much merri'
ment that the staid old Judge forgot
the insult and ordered Brown to the
witness stand to testify.-Kansas City
Journal.

Qandeliona,

The suburban housewife can find
plenty of young shoots Of dandelions
at this season to use on her table if
she possesses a good sized lawn. For
salads and pot herbs at this season
gather the delicate young leaves early
in the morning, as the hot sun OF
midday seems to tougher them.
The dandelion is such a bitter little
herb that a salad made entirely of it
is not to be advised. The leaves COM
bine we'll with lettuce or onions and
may be used with new beets or
deviled eggs. An excellent French
cook adds a bit of bacon cut in dice
to a salad Of bleached dandelion
leaves.

Of preparing apples-to stew or bake
them. Try some Of these old ways Of
presenting 1.-The king Of fruits"
For float apple make a nice apple
butter or PURGE from tart fruit, sweet

grated rind Of one lemon and CHINA
mon or nutmeg. Put the PURGE on
the ice to become very cold, then
beat the whites of two eggs to a stf
froth, adding this to the fruit, which
| should now be in the serving dish.
| When it comes to the table v the
top with a cupful Of rich cream.
To make fried apples wash and
wipe dry some tart cooking apples,
cut them in slices a quarter Of an inch
thick and fry them in butter until
tender and brown. Dredge with pow
dered sugar and serve piping hot on
warm plates.
Caramel apples may be made as fol
lows: Into a skillet put one cupful OF
light brown sugar and one-half cupful
Of hot water. Let boil for three or
four minutes, then drop in five nice
cooking apples which have been peel
ed, cored and halved. Let these stew
in the strip until they are tender and
fluffy, then drain them out into a
glass dish. In another saucepan have
ready one tablespoonful of butter
melted with one t~easpoonful Of aour.
and over this pour one-half cupful Of
vH-1.., HoA ,11l To TIM hni11nC
sirup. stirring briskly for several min
utes. then pour over the apples and
serve either hot or cold.

A Beautiful Hone For You.

Every day is a new beginning;
Every morn is the world made new.
Ye who are weary of sorrow and SHINING
Here is a beautiful hope for you,
A hope Tor me and a hope for you.
All the past things are past and over.
The tasks are done, and the tears are
shed.
Yesterdays errors let yesterday cover.
Yesterdays wounds which smarted and
bled
Are healed with the healing which night
hath shed.
Every day is a fresh beginning.
Listen, my SOUL, to the glad refrain
And spite of old sorrow and older SHINING
And puzzles forecasted and possible pain
Take heart with the day and begin again.
Only the new days are our own.
Today Is ours, and today alone.

The Doctors Twins.

An Irish doctor while enjoying a
holiday in the country took the oppor-
tunity, along with a friend, to go
fishing. During operations the doc
tors sinker came off and was lost.
Here was a dilemma-no sinker, no
more fishing that day. Happy thought
he had a bottle in his pocket. The
bottle was filled with water, carefully
corked and sent down on its mission.
After a few minutes interval the
doctor had Il bite and pulled up his

of fish, one on each hooh.
"Ha, doctor, twins this time," ex-
claimed his companion.
"Yes," quoth the doctor, land
