CAUGHT RY LETrER eox.

Last winter a well-known Vienna
lawyer went out to post letter. He
was wearing a large signet ring on
the little finger Of his right hand. and
as he pushed the letter through the
slit Of the letter box this caught and
held his hand rast. All enorts to re-
lease himself proved fruitless Within
10 minutes the whole street was block
ed by an enormous crowd and he was
the center Of storm Of chaff. The
police had to come to the rescue to
keep the people back, but they could
do nothing to release the prisoner.
Not even the police dared NEEDLE with
a letter box. II was not until authority
had been obtained from the head
postoflce that workmen we're allowed
to unscrew the box and take 1t to
pieces and to release the unfortunate
lawyer.-The Strand.

stewed Chicken.

Required; A chicken or fowl weigh
ing about four pounds, one onion
chopped fine, one tablespoonful Of
chopped parsley. one tablespoonful Of
salt one-half teaspoonful Of thyme,
one-half a teaspoonful of ground GIN
ger, one-quarter of a teaspoonful OF
mace and one-quarter of a teaspoonful
Of pepper.
Cut the chicken into pieces suitable
for serving, wash 1t and put 1t In a
saucepan. Cover 1t with water and set
It on to boil. When boiling add the
onion, parsley and the spices. Cook 1t
slowly for three hours or until ten
der, and about one-half hour before
serving thicken 1t with three table
spoonfuls Of Drowned -four and enough
liquor from the stew to mix the -four.
Be careful not to have 1t lumpy.
When well mixed pour 1t into the stew
and let it simmer for half hour. Gar
nish with rice and sprigs of parsley

JAPs AND AzrEcs.

A party of Japs blown across the
Pacific in gale, after fearful priva-
tions landed on the American coast
and were Immediately arrested for
landing without inspection. That
seems a rather unreasonable enforce
ment of the law. BY the way, the Incl
dent seems to confirm what the Japa-
nese scientists have claimed, that the
original Aztecs of Mexico were Japa-
nese who had been driven to this
country in a gale and in the course OF
generations founded a race. Relics of
the Aztecs in Mexico bear witness,
say the Japanese scientists, Of kin to
a similar religion and customs held by
the Japanese in their early history.

ADVERTISING BY AlRsHIP.

A novel form of advertising has Just
been inaugurated by a large retail
trading firm in Berlin. Every other
evening large dirigible balloon fiies
over the leading thoroughfares of the
city. Magic lanterns. placed on each
side OF the car, project advertise
NETS of the various goods on to a
sheet of canvas fastened to the en-
velope of the balloon. These adver-
tisements can easily be read from
the ground below.
The attention of the people In the
streets is attracted by the noise Of
the engine and by powerful search
lights. which are turned on in the car,
between each Advertisement. The SEN
sation caused by so unusual sight In
mid-air can be easily imagined.

VEGETABLE ELECTRIC BATTERY.

Scientists tell US that there has
been discovered in the forests of In
dia strange plant which possesses in
very high degree astonishing cleo
trio and magnetic power. The hand
that breaks Heaf from 1t receives in
stantly shock equal to that which is
produced by the conductor Of an in
ductive coil. At distance of six me-
ters a magnetic needle is affected by
1t. The energy of this singular force
varies, but in times Of storms its in
tensity increases in striking proper
ton. One never by any chance sees a
bird or an insect light on the electric
plant; nature seems to warn them that
they would find their death.-Chris-
tian Herald.

JUDGED BY PRESERVES
MARK or CAREFUL AND iNTELLt
GENT HOUSEWIFE,
NJ DeIlcacles From the Store Can
'JTske the Place Of Those Which
Mother Makes"--eome Things
to Remember.

Nowhere can the correct measure OF
the careful housewife be so readily
and easily taken as in the Jelly or pre-
serve closet Too many families de-
pend upon the grocer for such things,
losing both in expense and in quality.
Picked and preserved fruits and veg
etables go a long way In giving vari-
ETY. to the home table in the winter
when native fruits and vegetables are
no longer to be had, except in this
form. Children, and the men folks
As well, prefer the jams and jellIes
which mother makes" to any which
can be bought at the store, and though
their preparation involves intelligent
thought and hard work, later enjoy
ment ought to be an ample reward.
Berries and small fruits are about
done in the markets, but fruits and
vegetables suitable for picking and
preserving are now in their prime.
Modern ingenuity applied to house
keeping problems has gone far beyond
the old-time preserves and sweet
sauces of a generation or so ago.
First on the list come the jellies, and
for this purpose currants, apples,
grapes, ounces and cranberries are
the favorites. Currants are now out
of the market, and 1t must be as
sumed that the housewife took advan-
tage of the market, supply when the
fruit was In season. Both white and
red currants make delicious Jelly, and
a mixture adds variety in color and
flavor.
ALI fruit intended for jelly should
be tart and not too ripe, as In the lat
ter case difficulty may be experienced
in getting the jelly firm enough to
suit The making of jelly requires
much sugar, and If the fruit used is
mild in flavor or ripe the result will
be insipid. Apples lend themselves
very readily to the use of the jelly
makers, whether table fruit or of the
crabapple variety. Porter apples and
Gravensteins are especially rec
ommended, but a good, firm Baldwin.
not too ripe. and In fact any firm, tart
apple Of pleasant flavor can be used.
Crabapples are universal favorites for
Jelly making, the color depending
4omewhat upon the variety Of apple
used, but more on the cooking, espe-
cially the time the Jelly is boiled
after the sugar is put In.
Grape jelly is well liked. but for
this wild grapes, picked while still
partially green, are needed, though q
mixture of wild grapes and Concords
makes a very good Jelly. Ounces also
make a beautifully colored, spicy
jelly, economical housewives often
using the ounce parings when the
fruit has been prepared for preserv
ing. Other seasonable material is to
be found in barberries, picked before
&he frost comes while some of the
fruit is still green, damsons and Gran
berries. The latter is possibly the
simplest and easiest to make, as the
fruit jellies readily and less care is
necessary to keep out the mashed
fruit-Boston Transcript.

sliced, stoned olives and two cold
chopped hard-boiled eggs. Toss well

down a wall of the church and this
led to the discovery of the bees and
