RHYMED RECIPES
Oranue compote.


Take oranges of medium size,
The peel remove l pray;
From each round cut from one end
And scoop the seeds away.
Fill up the little cups thus formed
With strawberry preserve

Is more than most deserve.
Then top each orange with whipped
cream,
A cap all soft and white,
Made up of puffs, while for rosettes

On separate plates the fruit then serve
With lady fingers slim
And I've no doubt king would say,
The dish was fit for him!
Butter Scotch.

The primary coiors shown in the

I came acrpss the statement that there

the question sprang, We're these longer

no conception? And was the same
thing true of the waves which, grow

little study convinced me that my

WANTS BIG FAMILIES SLICED
Professor Carver Would Have Fewer

Professor Carver Would Have Fewer
Children Fer Cheap Labor.
Thomas Nixon Carver. professor OF
political economy at Harvard, takes
issue with those who advocate the
raising OF large families among the
masses. Professor Carver says:
Foxes think large families among
the rabbits highly conmendable-
Those employers who want large sup
plies OF cheap labor, those military
leaders who want plenty Of cheap food
for gunpowder and those politicians
who want plenty Of voters and rapid
multiplication among the poor, agree
in commencing large families and
classes.
What is really needed, however. are
smaller families and slower multiplied
ton among those who are least able
to support large families, In order that
laborers may became scarce and hard
to find. Then wages viii be high.
What is needed still more are larger
families and more rapid multiplication
among the employing classes in order
that employers may become abundant
and easy TO find. That VIII also raise
wages and reduce profits. The joint
result OF both processes VIII be less
unequal distribution OF men. accom-
panied by a less unequal distribution
OF wealth"

NOT A GAME OF CHANCE.
The Jury Decided That Seven-up Was
Purely Scientific

Purely Scientific.
One of Mark Twain's old time sto-
ries concerned the game of seven-up,
or old sled2e. Some Kentucky boys
were arrested for playing this game
under the usual charge OF playing
game OF chance. When they were
brought before the judge their lawyer
claimed that this game was not a
game Of chance, but was a game of
science. The court, puzzled. asked for
suggestion, and the lawyer declared
that If a jury of six gamblers well &C
qUainted with the game in a scientific
way and six deacons be impaneled
with a pack of cards their decision
ought to be determfnat1ve. So the stO-
ry goes:
There was.no disputing the fairness
OF the proposition. Four deacons and
the two dominies were sworn in as
the chance Jurymen, and six inveter-
ate old seven-up professors were
chosen TO represent the science side
Of the issue. They retired to the jury
room.
I'm about two hours Deacon Peters
sent into court to borrow So from a
friend In about two hours more
Dominic Miggles sent into court to
borrow stake from a friend Dur
ing the next three or four hours the
dominic and the other deacons sent
into court for small loans.
''The rest Of the story can be told
briefly. About daylight the Jury came
in and Deacon Job, the foreman, read
the following verdict:
eve. the jury in the case of the
commonwealth of Kentucky versus
John Wheeler ct al, have carefully
considered the points Of the case and
tested the merits Of the several thee
ries advanced and do hereby unani-
mously decide that the game common
" known as old sledse. or seven-up,
Is eminently a game Of science and
not OF chance. In demonstration
whereof It is hereby and herein stated,
iterated, reiterated, set forth and
made manifest that during the entire
night the chance" men never won a
game or turned a jack. although both
feats were common and frequent to
the opposition, and furthermore in
support of this our verdict we call at
tentlon TO the significant fact that the
chance" men are all broke and the
science" men have got the money.
1t is the deliberate opinion Of this jury
that the chance" theory concerning
seven-up is a pernicious doctrine and
calculated 10 inhict untold suffering
and pecuniary loss upon any commu-
nifty that takes stock in it,"
