ADVANTAGES FOR CHILDREN IN ISOLATED HOMES.

would have their effect upon the chill
dren, for the atmosphere of the home
has much to do with the direction in
which a child develops.
Then since the mother herself
seems a little out of the ordinary, she
can do much to supply the advantages
the children lack. She can tell them
of the great books, and the great
writer's, of the great musical compost
tons and their composers, of great
paintings and their painters. The in
terest anc curiosity she will thus
arouse in these things may do more
to fire the children with ambition to
make their way in the world in order
to get in touch with this life, than
if they were familiar with it always.
In addition, the great book of ma
ture is theirs to read. And no chilu
can learn to love the stars, and the
sea, and the wild flowers, and the
animal life, big and little about him.
without growing into fine pure man
or woman. Such a person will not
be at disadvantage anywhere, nc
matter what has been the advantages
of those about him. Genuine manhood
and womanhood is theirs. And that
is, after all, what counts.
AS soon as the young folks are able
to make their way in the world she
should send them forth to do it. Il
she has given them the right training
she need not fear results. They viii
soon make up for lack of advantages
Indeed, it is doubtful if close, loving
family life, and a study of the grea
stories of earth and sea and sky, ar,
not worth more to a child than tn,
feverish life of cities and the learning
+ of books.

A mother who lives in a tiny, sea-
shore hamlet complained bitterly that
there are no advantages for her chill
dren there, no books, no society Of
the right kind, nothing. They must
live there, it seems, because of the
fathers health. They have not the
means to bring to the children these
things of the higher life which she
Graves for them.
The school, she says, is poor. Just
what she means by this is doubtful.
But if the teacher is neglectful, the
residents of the little town could
soon remedy this by making a uniteu
complaint If the school lacks proper
equipment, this, too, could be rene

capable of properly furnishing its

to the very head Of the state board

equipment could be secured. One

much if she goes about it in the
right way and the right spirit. The
world is full of people willing to help.
A small library could be secured, no
doubt, in the same way, if the needs
of the place were brought to the no.
tice of the right people.
Although there is only a handful OF
homes in this little place, most Oh

The well beaten yolk of an egg light

make the crust brown and shiny.
Never use the fingers in pinching the
edges of pies, as the heat from the
hands will keep the crust from rising.
A crisp crust on a cake may be made
by adding a spoonful of ice water to
the batter or busting with sugar just
before putting into the oven.

before the practical joker could play
a similar trick on the bride he found
the other handcuff snapped around
his own wrist. He was chained to

able to look back and down upon the
Fork as if she had been carried into
another world-a world that was at
once primeval, yet peaceful; a world
of dreaming trees, singing streams and
silent peaks; realm in which law
and order reigned, maintained by one
determined young man whose power
was derived from the president him

rent the two intrepid guardians Of the
forest were encamped. One of them,
it is true, came of Swedish parentage
and the other was native of Eng

the high sense of being loyal to the
federal will, and she trusted them
more unquestioningly than any other
men in all that west save only Red

others equally loyal, equally to be

uneasiness, for she and Lie had plan

consented to this because it still left
to her the possibility of occasionally
seeing or hearing from Cavanagh. But
the thought that he might so away al

the sound Of the stream and made the
future vaguely sad.
