The Secret of Fascination


listener her parlor is sure to be void
of the element masculine. It has been
said that a true test of a wife's love
is her ability to really laugh at the
witticisms of her husband, regardless
of the rust of moss that may cling to
them. The laugh test Is apropos for
the maid as well as the matron, for
nothing so tickles a mans vanity as
a suspicion that he is a born come
dian.
Do not go to the other extreme,
however, and attempt to usurp the
masculine toggery and mannerisms
of man. The ultra-athletic girl lie
an example of the woman who has
sacrificed charm and delicacy for a
deplorable manishness that cannot
but render her an object of ridicule,
even Of scorn. Athletics within rea-
son are right and good, but the days
of Amazons are past and there seems
no disposition to have them march
majestically across the pages of mod
ern history.

from the wrath of a stern father.
Chinese pergola, bridge and the two
doves form the principal figures of the
theme, which is carried out in dark
blue on a white background. There is
something quaint. something limiting of
grandmother's china closet in these
blue and white dishes that may be
bought on the china counters all the
way from ten to twenty-five cents
each. A pretty plate costs ten cents,
a cup and saucer fifteen cents and
other dishes are proportionately priced.
Japanese china is very reasonable
and has the value of being always
thin and dainty. This comes in any
number of attractive patterns, the de-
signs being woven of the many beau
tiful blossoms Thai grow in the Flow
cry Kingdom. A plain white back
ground and a narrow border of green
in fern leaves is COO and effective on
the table. as are the smaller Dresden
patterns showing pink and blue.
1t is not necessary to buy an entire
set, those in immediate use at the in
formal meal being quite enough to

CREAM SOUPS.


Cream soup should be cooked IN a
double boiler; in fact, so far as pos
sible. all milk dishes should. The milk
should be cooked and h vegetable
pulp added to it, not the reverse
method used. The butter n hou:

added dry to the liquid. Some OF the

cupful is at hand an egg yolk for fur

LIQUID may be part veal or chicken or

DATE PIE.

Stone n wash well one pound of
dates; just them with water, and
cook until they are soft, Rub them
through a sieve in the same way that
squash Is strained. Beat well three
eggs; add a pinch of salt and three
large cups of ~milk-about one and one
half pints-and mix with the dates.
The mixture should be about the con-
sistency of the filling for squash or
pumpkin pie. The whites of the eggs
may be reserved for a meringue, or
whipped cream may be spread on when
the pie Is cold.

NkJOMEN who wish to ri the ad-
w miration or the love of a man
should study his temperament. 1t is
surprising how a man is drawn to a
woman tactful enough to display a
sympathetic interest in his business af-
fairs, his sports and his general per-
sonal welfare. We are all egoists at
heart, and the evidence of a special in
terest In our w~ell-being is the open
sesame to our affections, even our love.
Man is no exception to his rule OF in
dividualism; the who bears
with his worries and difficulties is high
in his estimation while h Is present
and is held in grateful memory when
absent.
The practical woman is the femin-
inc ideal of the modern man. Far bet

A CHANGE IN BAKED BEANS.

Instead of using pork In baked beans
try olive oil. 1t is delicious and can be
digested by people who have given up
baked beans on account of the pork.
For W. cups of beans, after soaking
and parboiling, use two t~ablespoonfuls
OF best olive oil and a piece of butter
the size of an English walnut; one tea
spoonful of mustard, one of salt, one
tablespoonful molasses. Fill pot with
boiling water n bake as usual (cov-
ered); uncover the last hour and

For the prospective bride who Is
seeking novelty and some new
effective features for the approaching
~eventful day, there is a possible sug-
gestion in the candlelight edding AS
is implied, candles supply the only
light, and so there must be dozens OF
them. A pretty idea is to have the
brass candlesticks with white candles,
or If this is impracticable, the glass
holders with candles corresponding
with the chosen color scheme. They
may be placed on shelves, NANTES
bookcases and among the flowers The
effect is charming.

FORCE OF LIGHTNING.
An Ordinary Stroke is Abou, Equal &c
Fifty Thousand Horsepower.

Frequently surprise Is expressed at
the effect of Il stroke of lightning
which splinters Il large tree or wrecks
n tall chimney, but II the enormous
power Developed by an ordinary stroke
of lightning is taken into consldcra-
tion the wonder will be that the effect
Is SO small
Scientists estimate that an 'ordi-
nary stroke of lightning is of 10000
horsepower That is force sufficient to
drive the largest battlcsli'p ever built
1T top speed. The ligh. aug stroke
however. travels at speed of 10000
miles per second. We think we see a
fash of lightning, but as a matter o.
fact what we see is only the memory
of a flash The electrical current ha.;
been absorbed by the earth long before
we are conscious of having seen the
fash. \ person struck 10y a direct
fash would never see it.
The average clectromotive force of n
bolt" of lightning is about 3,5OO,OOO
volts, and the current is li,WN,OO am
pcres. I'm such Il "bolt'' there is energy
equal to o.45o,ooo volts. or 3,os4, 1872
horsepower. Some day wizard will
arise who will capture and bind n
bolt of lightning and with 1T turn all
the wheels of a great city.
The time required for the discharge
of q "bot' of lightning is about one
twenty-thousandth of 4 second. Chi
