Bnckwheat Cakes That Husbands
Like

The Woman's Home Compa- ion has
been collecting recipes of the favor
lite dishes of husbands. In the Deem
Der issue number of these recipes
are published, including one for buck
hweat cakes. 1t is said to be an
extraordinary recipe and is furnished
by woman in Massachusetts:
Four cupfuls of warm water, 2
tablespoonful of molasses, nearly 3
cupfuls of buckwheat-meal. 1 tea
spoonful of salt. nearly 1 cupful of
Indian meal, and 12- cake of COM
pressed yeast. Scald the Indian meal
with just enough water TO swell it.
When cool, add this to the buckwheat
with the measure of warm water:
beat till all are well mixed. To this
add salt, molasses and yeast, which
should be dissolved in little water.
Beat all together for five or six min
utes, set IN warm place to rise over
night. 4 pitcher is very convenient
to pour the batter from when making
the cakes. Cover the pitcher contain
ing the batter with thick cloth over
night. In the morning beat we'll,
and set the batter near the fire for
second rising. Buckwheats are not
perfection without soda, which should
be added whether the cakes are sour
or not, but not till just before they
are baked. When the breakfast is on
the table, dissolve even teaspoonful,.
of soda ina little warm water, stir i
well into the batter, and cook at
once. Serve the cakes as quickly as
possible from the griddle. Indian meal
makes buckhweats more tender than
flour. They are much better made
with milk than water.'

RepuIsed Their Hero.

George Barr McCutcheon Is noted
for his shyness and retiring DISPOSE
ton, and some there are mean enough
to credit these not entirely unworthy
traits to the fact that he figures that
his BILL Nye- countenance" and
shining pate" are apt to cause a cold
ness on the part of matinee girls and
others who worship his romantic he
rOes, says the New York Telegraph.
The following story concerning him is
worth repeating. Two young girls
were discussing him: Il just dote on
McCutcheon. Don't you think 'Bev
erly Of Graustark' Is just about the
SWEETEST book you ever read?" Said
Name to Cert: Indeed l do. I'd give
anything for photograph of Nc
Cutcheon, and if l could only meet
him, o-oo-o." McCutcheon heard the
young lady; he arose from his seat.
donned his best "Graustark" smile,
and then Said Cert to Name: "If
that bald-headed onion that's been
making googoos across the aisle for
the last half hour dares to speak to
me I'll slam him on the map with my
umbrella" And McCutcheon folded
his tent like the Arabs-and beat 1t.

their optics on this page they will
realize how near they came to meet

the best remedies for eczema 1 have

did no good. In few days the head
was solid mass; running sore. 1t
was awful, the child cried continually.

last we remembered Cuticura Rene

washed the head with the Cuticura
Soap, and applied the Cuticura Oint-
ment We had not used half before
the child's head was clear and free
from eczema, and 1t has never come
back again. His head was healthy

EVIDENTLY HAD HIS DOUBTS
OIfactory Evidence Offered Up by
Serious Minded Old-Time
Circuit Rider.

A typical old-time circuit rider"
died recently in Alabama man
whose godly unselfish life will long
be remembered. Many were the &C.
centricities of this rugged old man.
and many anecdotes are current
among the Methodist ministers of the
state concerning him. He was noted
for two things-his denunciation Of
sin in no uncertain tones, and the
familiarity with which he addressed
the Lord in prayer.
On one occasion he had been preach
ing in log meeting house in the piny
woods of north Alabama. There were
several young fellows on hand who
had been celebrating by patronizing a
still hard by. After a long, fiery ser
mon, the preacher made call for

toned young fellows. The old man
looked them over for a moment, and
with keen intuition felt that 1t was
perhaps a lark" on the boys part,
but he knelt to pray.
90 Lord" he began, there's a crowd
Of young fellows kneeling round your
altar. They've been cussin' and
swearin' and drinkin' and spendin'
their time in riotous Twin. but they've
come up here seemingly penitent.
They look like penitents, Lord, and l
hope they are. They weep like peni
tents. Lord, and l hope you'll forgive
'em if they are; but, o Lord. declare
they don't smell like penitents!

HONEST CONFESSION
A Doctors Talk on Food.

There are no fairer set of men on
earth than the doctors, and when they

usually apt to make honest and manly

A case in point Is that OF a practi-
toner, one Of the good old school, whr

Restored In Christ.

Our Lord once encountered a man
who had a withered hand In spite Of
the captious questioning Of the Jews,
or perhaps in order to silence it,
Christ, at the dictate of his own mer-
ciful heart, said to the afflicted man.

he stretched it forth 1t was restored
whole The moral is evident-in hu-
man society there are many palsied
hands atrophied powers or unused
aculties-needing to be restored to
full duty as social ministrants. There
is only one way to accomplish this
result-use what little power is left
in stretching forth the imperfect fac
ulty in the direction of Jesus Christ.

SOME ODD SKINS AND HIDES
Queer PeIts That Find Their Way
Into American and Canadian
Markets.

Among the skins and hides which
find their way into the American and
Canadian markets are the boar skins,
which come from Mexico, and the hide
of the Mexican peccary, with fur or
brtstles of a pepper and salt mixture
In color, the beast being a savage look
ing animal alive Like deer skins,
boar hidAs are shipped dry. The boar
skin makes a heavier leather than
deer skin and is used for glove trim
mings.
Goat skins in large numbers are I'm
ported from the various Latin Amer
lean countries, including the West In,
dies; but the great sources Of the
worlds supply of goat skins are
China, Russia and the East Indies In
the order named. From those coun-
tries there are imported annually mil
lions of goat skins which are made
into leather, 80 per cent. Of which is
used in the manufacture of shoes.
Goat skins are shipped principally
dry
From the countries to the south of
the United States are brought annual
ly some thousands of alligator hides,
mostly from Mexico and the United
States Of Colombia, with some from
Ecuador. These alltgators are shot
or are speared from boats Alligator
hides are shipped wet sailed. If they
were once dried they never could be
softened sufficiently to be made into
leather
To be kept in perfect condition in
the hot countries the alligator must
be skinned and the hide sailed right
away. The supply is still sufficient
but in the countries from which the
hides are now mainly brought alliga-
tors are diminishing in number. There
are too many hunters and too many
young alligators are taken.
Formerly some alligator leather was
used for shoes and boots, but now it
Is used chiefly in the manufacture of
handbags and suitcases.
Occasionally few manatee or sea
COW hides, which come from Mexico,
find their way north. These hides are
shipped wet sailed The manatee hide

From Mexico also come a few tiger
cub skins, which are tanned and made

Many Suns to Give Light.

During the day we say that the
sun shines; during the night we
should say that the suns shine writes
a Boston correspondent of the New
York Times. During the day one
sun reigns over US; during the night
many suns sparkle and scintillate up
on us. The only difference is that
our sun of day is so much nearer than
our suns of night; but there is one
eun of night that, during our winter,
far outshines the other sparkling sky
gems That sun is Sirius, whose dis
lance has been estimated at so bill
lions of miles, whose size has been
coniectured to be as vast as that OF
seven thousand suns like our own"

A Woman's L etter,

Women, 1t is generally admitted,
write better letters than men.
NJ Marcel Provost has discovered
the reason for this superiority. "The
obvious meaning is never the one we
should read into woman's letter.
There is always a yelled meaning.
Woman makes use Of a letter just
as she employs a glance or smile,
In way that Is carefully thought out,
and with an eye to effect. And, after
all, does a woman's hat serve to cover
her head? Does a woman's parasol
keep off the sun? Why, then, should
a woman's letter serve to convey her
real thoughts to the person ad
dressed, just like the letters of some
honest grocer, who writes, I send you
five pounds of Coffee because he
really does send you five pounds of
coffee"
