The sergeant consulted his back

The sergeant came over, and the
captain whispered something in his
ear. Howard shivered Suddenly
turning to his prisoner. the captain
shouted in the stern tone of COM
mand:
Get up!"
Howard did as he was ordered. He
felt he must. There was no resisting
that powerful brute's tone Of authori-
ty. Pointing to the other side of the
table, the captain went on:
Stand over there where | can look
at you!"
The two men now faced each other
the small table alone separating
them. The powerful electrolier over
head cast its light full on How
ards haggard face and on the cap
tain's scowling features. Suddenly
Maloney turned Off every electric
light except the lights in the elect
roller, the glare OF which was inten-
sifed by the surrounding darkness.
The rest of the room was in shadow.
One saw only these two figures
standing vividly out in the strong
light-the whitefaced prisoner and
his stalwart inquisitor In the dark
background stood Policeman Delaney.
Close at hand was Maloney taking
notes.
"You did It. and you know you did
IT." thundered the captain, fixing his
eyes on his trembling victim.

slowly and firmly, returning the police

Why did you come here?" he de-
manded.

Did you get it?"
"No-he said he couldn't give II to

Then you killed him"
Il did not kill him." replied Howard
positively.

MOTHERS OF THEN AND NOW
Conditions Are Only Different, No
Matter What Sentimental
Writers May Assert.

The popular" writer who bewails
what he assumes to be the fact that
the ''old-fashioned'' mother is no more
is liable to defeat his own purpose if
that be intoxicating in children the
highest possible regard for their pa
rents. 1t is danger which even the
quantitative theory Of literature or
space rates cannot justify.
The mother of the past, of course,
was different from the mother of the
present, as different on the whole as
the conditions Of life then and now,
but since her daughter is the mother
of the present there must be some
points of similarity All the good In
our mothers and grandmothers GER
tainly could not have vanished. It
will be paying scant tribute to those
dear, good women who have laid down
their precepts and examples and
passed on to say SO. And, of course,
this writer does not mean to do that,
yet he comes very near doing what he
does not intend.
The fallacy of the whole sentimen-
tai notion that because things and
people are not like they used to be
they are not as good lies in the pat
ent fact that they cannot be alike, and
if they were, 1t would simply be be-
cause of the present generation being
SO much inferior to- the past that it
was unable to do no more than stand
still.

BEST BROWN BREAD
RECIPE FOB. THE EXCELLENT
BOSTON PRODUCT.
Enthusiastic Fasteners Declare No
- Article of Food Is More Delicious,
and There Is Much Truth in
Statement.

Every housekeeper longs to excel
in the art-for it is an art-of
bread making. There is no article
that appears more often on our tables
than bread, yet good homemade bread
Is seldom found
Boston brown bread is not in the
same class as white or even graham
bread, FOR it is lightened with sour
milk and soda and steamed until al
most done, then baked a few min
utes in very hot oven. 1t is not
like "the bread mother made" but
far better. especially If you put raj
sins or currants or inely-chopped
dates in it. This eaten hot with
fresh, unsalted butter and an ac-
compartment of hot Boston baked
beans and a cup of steaming Java,
enriched with real cream, should
make you thankful that you are
numbered among the advocates Of

Such meal needs no prelude nor

Boston brown bread requires two
mixing bowls; in one, sift one cup
of rye, or whole wheat -four, one cup
of corn meal, two cups Of graham

other bowl place cup of New Or

and one tablespoon of soda.
With the molasses, sugar and soda,
mix two cups of sour milk, or butter

into the bowl of -four and salt. Mix

several minutes. 1t should be of a
consistency to stir easily, and break
when poured from the spoon, but not

With some mo1asses you may need
to add from spoonful to a cupful Of
warm water to make it right. Butter
the molds well and fill two-thirds full,
as 1t will rise. Cook in steamer, or
lacking this, tie the cover on tightly
and place in kettle of boiling water.
Cover the kettle, also, and keep boil

kettle is not boiled away. When nee

At the end of three hours, take

GOOD IDEA FOR A coTlLLoN
Empire Effect Lends Itself Charming
ly to the Decorations and Favors-
Some Pretty conceits.

The hostess who wants to entertain
well and does not have to count pen
MES should give an empire cotillon.
The idea would lend itself charming
iy to the decorations and favors.
Empire wreaths and garlands OF
pink and white roses should decorate
the walls. Tail dull gold empire gas
kets with long handles filled with the
same flower should be placed about
the rooms. And empire screens could
shade the electric lights to give the
soft glow Of innumerable wax candles.
For favors she would have many
charming conceits to choose from.
Among the prettiest would be pin
cushions in the shape of these small
empire baskets. Their centers are
stuffed for the cushion, and they are
made of dull furnished gold, in wick
err, with the edges and handles twined
with wreaths of small satin flowers.
And empire work bags made OF dull
brocade with furnished gold trim
mings, and the picture of some beauty
of the French courts framed on the
side make stunning favors.
Empire scarfs in shaded pink and
white, gold and white, and the green
and white of that period are Infinitely
attractive used as favors.
Small gilt mirrors in empire design,
furnished gold jewel boxes so typical
of that charming day. and tiny fans
make lovely favors.
Then IL all the girls wore empire
srocks., and empire wreaths of pink
and white roses were given them to
carry over their arms, a fascinating
effect would be attained.

Plenty of stewed fruit and baked ap-
