N !. Il SAVED BY a SPIDER
Scotland Proflted by, the Lesson the
Insect Taught TO Ito r 5s3
# *. Monarch. i 81.

Scotland has. many legends that The
sheepherders and highland peasants
never get tired repeating. a long time
ago King Bruce ruled over Scotland
before that country became g part Of
England. and he learned lesson from;
a spider that enabled him to succeed
when otherwise he would have failed
King Bruce had lost many battles
He was discouraged. He had made
his final effort against his enemies
and failed to vanquish them. Deep IN
despair he went to lonely room IN
his castle Reclining on the couch
and thinking, he, happened to notice
a spider drop from the ceiling on g.
single silken cord. He watched the
spider fascinatingly. It now began its
ascent. It slipped. Time and time (
again it tried to mount, but each time !
1t failed. The king watched intently'
forgetful Of all else. An hour passed. 4
Finally the spider succeeded. It was
an inspiration for King Bruce. Why
should he get discouraged, having
tried only few times and failed? He
made one last grand rally against his
enemies and routed them, and from
this incident came the old saying, IL
at first you don't succeed try again.

Caused by Withdrawal Of Blood
From the Brain, Says Modern
III Physiology.

All the organs of life rest in some
way or other. The heart has an in
; terval of rest between each combined
act of contraction and expansion and
the beginning of a fresh act. Be-
tween each expiration of the lungs
and the succeeding Inspiration there
is a period of repose. Psychologists
have calculated that the heart re-
poses during about one-fourth of the
time.
Certain of the other organs suspend
their activity in part during sleep.
Old psychologists supposed that sleep
was caused by the pressure of the
blood on the brain. But modern
physiology, with tendency to regard
the brain as the origin of all force
and of all functions Of the body, in
slines to the view that sleep is
caused by withdrawal of blood from
he brain.

Old Cry az at nv

One reason given by Mr.. Roosevelt
for his recantation of opinion in the
matter OF Canadian reciprocity is that
the agreement carried indetensible
action on paper" The reference IS
to the provision placing wood pulp
and printing paper on the free list;
This provision, which. by the way, is
the only part OF the reciprocity act
that went into effect and remains in
effect, scarcely needs to be defended.
It is "indefensible" only in the view
OF the Paper Trust. The conclusion is
near that this must be one OF T. RS
good" trusts, to assail or otherwise
displease which is not only "inde-
rensible," but Is a crooked deal" or
something like that.

4, Mr.. Ware, careless as to dress,
scowled down on the child. He had
favored Boggs' with his presence, not
because he felt the least interest IN
horse-racing. but because he had no
faith In girls. and especially had he
profound mistrust Of Betty. She was

growled Ware disgustedly. ~:
But Betty did not seem to hear.

she asked.

The Judge had drawn nearer as
Betty and Hannibal spoke together,
but Mahafry hung back. There were
CULTS not to be crossed by him. 1t

native magniticence OF his mind fitted
him for any occasion. t*,$
"Allow me the. honor to present my
self, lna'am-Price Is my name.

Tom Ware gave him a glance OF
undisguised establishment, while Nor
ton regarded him with an expression
Of stunned and resolute gravity.
Betty looked at the judge rather in
quiringly.
II am glad he has found friends"
she said slowly. She wanted to be-
lieve that Judge Slocum Price was
somehow better than he looked, which
should have been easy since 1t was
Incredible that he could have been

the judge with mellow JUNCTION, and

Now Betty caught sight Of Caring

HER DAY OF TRIUMPH ; 4
SOCIAL FUNCTIONS IN HONOR or
THE GIRL GRADUATE.
Here Arc Few seasonable Dishes for
Such occaslons-coId Chicken
BouiIIon AIwa:'s a Part-Good
Combination Salad.

Just as the new bride Is feted with
little social functions of all sorts, SO
is the girl graduate given her own
special fcstivity. One Of the prettiest
social functions given in her honor is
pretty luncheon, to which are invited
all the girls of her class II there are
twelve maids a long table will be used.
but with a numerous company a num-
Der of round tables are preferred. The
tables are got up In a very "partyded"
manner-dainty china, a profusion Of
flowers, Furnished silver and sparkling
glasses giving them quite wedding
air. New fayors for these charming
functions are small, stiff bouquets
made up like the old bridal nosegays.
The flowers for these are artificial. the
daintiest that can be had, and about
the paper horn that holds them there
Is frill Of some pretty cheap lace.
The long stem Of the bouquet is
wrapped with tinfoil. The menu OF
the banquet may be as grand or as sim
pie as one considers consistent with
such gala fxings, but the usual spread
includes some delicate appetizer, bouil-
Ion, an entree in season, broiled spring
chicken, u green salad, ices and cake.
Sailed almonds or peanuts and little
dishes of bonbons are scattered over
the tables.
Here are few recipes for seasonal
BILE dishes for such functions:
Cold Chicken Bouillon.-Get good
roasting chickens and remove skin
and fat when cleaning them. Put them
on in cold water, adding at the same
time one leek to each chicken, two
tender carrots, one onion and sprig
Of parsley. Let the chicken barely
simmer until it falls to rags. Take it
of the fire, remove superfluous grease
and then strain. Clarity the bouillon
with the whites and shells of two eggs
and then strain again. Put on the
ice until needed and serve in broad tin
<teacups or, better still. bouillon cups.
Many persons prefer the bouillon hot
Combination Salad-Wash head of
romaine salad in several cold waters.
Then take large shears and strip the
leaves into pieces about an inch WIDE
Clip green peppers in the same way,
cutting these almost to threads. Put
these in large bowl, add some canned
asparagus tips carefully drained of
liquid, two tablespoonfuls OF chopped
chives, and four tender beets cut IN
thin slices, and then throw in the ten
der hearts of two punches Of celery,
these split into four. Use French
dressing, olive OIL salt, pepper and
lemon juice. This salad should be
kept cold as Ice before serving.
Sailed Almonds.-Shell two pounds
OF almonds and then boil them five
minutes; remove skins while still
warm. This is how the almonds are
blanched. AS soon as they are peeled.
sprinkle lightly with fine table salt.
