Mrs. Wiley is one Of the best
known caterers in the west, and has
conducted schools all over the coun-
try, charging a large admission fee
for her services. In speaking of the
outlook for the Reflector's cooking
school, Mrs. Wiley said:
Domestic science has been my life
work. The kitchen is the chemical
laboratory of the home and you can
make people happy or miserable by
use or misuse of the laboratory.
Cooking is a fine art. To my

Minina For Coffin PIanks.

One of the most curious industries in
the world Is the business of mining for
coffin planks. which is carried on in
upper Tonkin. a portion of the French
possessions in southeastern Asia. In
q certain district in this province there
exists Il great underground deposit of
logs. which were probably the trunks
Of trees engulfed by an earthquake or
some other commissions of nature at a
comparatively recent period. The trees
are species of pine known to the
natives and also TO some extent to Eu-
ropean commerce as "nam-hou." The
wood is almost imperishable and has
the quality, either through its nature
or as the result of its sojourn under
ground, of resisting decay from damp.
This quality makes it particularly val
liable for the manufacture of collins.
and for this purpose it is largely ex-
ported 10 Europe. The trees are often
a yard in diameter. They are buried
in sandy earth at depth of from two
to eight yards and are dug rfb by ma
tive labor as demand is made for them.

A Miracle Under Orders.

In "The Glory of the Shia World"
translated from a Persian manuscript
is a story that will interest Christian
Scientists:
''Nadir, builder of the golden porch
Of Nadir.' in the sacred city Of Mesh
ed, was world conqueror and lord
of perception, albeit cruel. OF his
power of perception they relate that
one day when he entered the sacred
shrine he saw blind man invoking
the aid of the imam. and upon inquiry
he learned that he had been there for
several months. The great monarch
asked him why his faith was so weak
that his sight had not been restored
and swore that if on his return he
found him still blind he would cut OF
his head The wretched man prayed
so fervently and fixed his mind so in
tently on the imam that within few
minutes his sight was restored"

BAGS That Last.

THE young chap whose morals
tremble for just now is my nephew"
the city salesman remarked. "He has
a position as errand boy In banking
house. He Is bright lad and as
steady as they make 'em, but since he
got that job in the bank his women
relations are urging him into crime.
They do not advise him to pick his
employers pockets or run away with
the days deposits, but the principle in
yolved is just as reprehensible. They
ask him to abstract few bags that
the silver money is carried in. The
women want those bags for sofa pill
low covers. They are made Of mate
rial that will never wear out and
feathers and down simply cannot sift
through. By boldly asking for what
he wanted the boy has secured enough
bags TO incase his mothers sofa pill
lows, but If he supplies the rest of the
family l see nothing ahead of him but
a career of crime."-New York Sun.

Do You Want TO Get Slender?

A food specialist said of dieting:
'The simplest, easiest and most effica-
cious diet TO bring down the weight Is
the one dish diet At no meal. that is.
should more than one dish be eaten.
The dish may be what you will-Irish
stew, macaroni and cheese, roast beef.
vegetable soup, bacon and eggs-but
no courses are to precede or follow 1t.
You may eat as much as you choose
Of the dish. and yet, for all that. you
will lose weight steadily. It's the va
riety of dishes-the oysters. soup. fish,
turkey. mince pie. Ice cream-it's the
variety of dishes. creating an arti-
fetal appetite when the body has real
ly had all it requires, that causes cor
pulence. If we confine ourselves to one
dish we know when we've had enough
we don't know otherwise-and the
result is that we soon drop down to

what a glory a foteign label can cast

two milliners. She had large collec-

ribbons and glass showcases Of rich
embroideries, besides the inevitable
bonnets. Once she imported guam

strings were somewhat crushed in the

were quickly disposed of. An aunt
bought one. and Miss Rust innocently
