NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-The
home of Emile Busby Grigsby-
the House of Mystery-is to be
opened to the public at last AMI
the gorgeous furnishings are to
be sold at auction.
This announcement has created
stir among New York's most
digrified men of money. More
than a stir, because several men
Of affairs are having trouble
sleeping o. nights for fear the
auction will reveal sentimental
secrets that won't look good in
print.
Miss Grigsby's auction is for
revenge, not profit-although she
may get as much as a million
dollars from the sale. She was
friend of the British queen,
but was snubbed during the coro-
nation. Her American friends,
who were loyal when she was the
pc. Of the millionaire Charles T.
Yeryes, have also snubbed her.
So size Is going to sell the splen-
did collection which Yerkes and
other admirers gave her.
Those who have been through
the Grigsby collection declare that
no matter how much the actual
value of the stuff to be sold may
be, there are secret notes on sill

MRS. VS. RECIPES
PUFF PASTE

Into 1 quart of sifted flour
mix teaspoons of baking powder
and teaspoon of salt, then sift
again. Measure out i teacup of
butter and 1 of lard, hard and
cold. Take the lard and rub into
the flour until a very fine smooth
paste, then put in just enough ice
water, say half cup, containing
a beaten egg, the white of the egg,
to mix very stiff dough. Roll 1t
out into thin sheet, spread with
u of the butter, sprinkle over
with little flour, then roll up
closely in a long roll like a scroll.
Double the ends toward the center,
flatten and reroll, then spread
again with another quarter OF the
butter. Repeat this operation I'M
til the butter Is used up, put it in
an earthen dish, cover 1t with a
cloth and set 1t in a cold place
In the ice box in summer. Let it
remain until cold, an hour or more
before making out the crust. You
may roll this pastry in any direc-
ton, but you must have nice
flour, ice water and very little of
1t. This is a fine recipe and one

The CURRlES HUsTLERs
FOR BUSINESS At HALEY

The Adams County Record at Hettin-
ger, speaks of j. A. Currie, son of John
W. Currie. former Dickinson people, as
follows:
j.. A.. Currie, the ''Haley Hustler. was
a business caller in Hettinger yester-
day. MIR. Currie has al Haley one of
the best mercantile establishments in
this section Of the country and despite
the handicap of being off the railroad
he is doing an enormous business. His
big store and his progressive methods
cut off from Scranton and other railroad
towns many thousand dollars worth of
business that would otherwise 90 to
them. Mr.. Currie is one of the best adj
vertisers in this part of the state and
the success of the business, despite an
inland location, certainly indicates the
value of such advertising. It would
also seem to show that you can't
keep a good man down."
