To Be a Good Cook.

ITO be a good cook means the
knowledge Of all fruits, herbs, balms
and spices; and of all that is healing
and sweet in fields and groves, savory
in meats; it means carefulness, in
ventiveness, watchfulness, willingness
and readiness of appliance; it means
the economy of your great-grandmoth-
ers and the science of modern chem
lists; it means much testing and no
wasting; it means English thorough
ness, French art and Arabian hospi-
tality; it means, in fine, that you are
to be perfectly and always ladies
Goaf-givers), and you are to see that
everybody has something nice to eat"

Glasgow, Mont.-The mutilated body
of Lawrence Soboleski, sheep ranch

by a rope tied around its neck, and

it nowadays is likely to put up concrete barn

is very little more than frame structure, to say
nothing of the saving in upkeep, as for instance
the expense of frequent paintings. OF course.
the great argument in favor of the concrete struc

that he might as we'll put up frame barn, be-
cause if the contents caught fire it was unlikely
that the structure could be saved if it

Declined the Invitation.

A somewhat striking story dealing
with the now obsolete conventional
suicide, harakiri. or happy dispatch"
once common In Japan. was once told
by the French Admiral Gourdon.
When he was a young man he hid a
comrade who, having assisted In the
organizing of the Japanese navy, was
subsequently, raised to the rank OF ad-
mirai In that orce. He took the part
OF the tycoon against the mikado In
the revolutionary war and, having
been captured. was tried by court mar
tial and sentenced to death, which IN
those days implied haraktri. When,
however, the fatal sword was pre-
vented to him he fatty refused to kill
himself and declared that IL he was
TO die somebody else must kill him.
Threats and ~entreaties alike proved
unavashng. He r~esolutely refused. The
| whole OF Japan was scandalized of
such immoral behavior. which, how
| ever, saved his life. The japanese
penal code had never contemplated
such d contingency as a man inhunaan
enough to refuse the harakiri, and In
che end he was banfshed from The
country and returned to France.

end to his career. He actually TOOK

element In the c~oncoction had lost its
efficacy. He, however, conquered his
inclination to self destruction, which
he ever afterward held in adherence,
even during his hopeless exile at st.
Helena. Wien during his FIRST con-
sulship one of Els grenadiers killed
himself Napoleon issued an order to
the guards:
1.-THE Grenadier Gobafn has killed
himself owing to a love affair. He
was otherwise an excellent soldier.
The first consul commands that the

Is the same courage in enduring with
patience the pangs Of the soul as in
facing brayely the Are Of a battery. To
give oneself up to grief without resist
anoe or to kill oneself to escape is to
abandon the field Of battle before being
beaten"
In a conversation with Goethe, Ma
poleon blamed the poet for allowing
Werther to commit suicide, and In 1915
he said to O'Meara.
