The Time to. Stop Your
nd IS, the Day Your
Property is Sold !!

If every one who had property to
sell followed the plan Of advertising It
continuously and persistently UNTIL
1T IS SOLD, no one would ever teel
property poor" And, while occasion
ally an ad might have to be repeated a
score or more Of times, the cost Of it
would be but trifing compared to the
advantage Of finding the buyer to whom
that particular property WOULD BE I
A BARGAIN at the price asked.
All property in or near this city
IS SALABLE. Thus the RULE OF
ADVERTISING YOUR PROPERTY
UNTIL 1T is SOLD is safe and pru-
dent one. Of course, the best time to
BEGIN is NOW-and, as suggested,
the ONLY time to stop is when your
sale is made!

The Coveted Scarab
By AMANDA MERRIWETHER

OF anger. He blamed not alone him
self, but Paul, whose ~carelessness had
made the theft possible. At first he
had argued that it served Paul right,
but now the tiny scarab had grown to
the weight Of a milestone about his
neck.
He did not dare take it out and
place it in his collection. He did not
even dare to look at it himself lest
Lena, coming in suddenly, as was her
wont, should discover him with the
evidence Of guilt In his hand.
The evil he had done preyed upon
his health. He suddenly grew very old
and feeble, and his enthusiasm for his
collection waned. The thought that his
hobby had made of him a thief was
bitter indeed, and in the long silence
of the night he tossed sleepless on his
bed and cursed the day he had seen
the scarab on the stairs.
Paul had taken his loss az q slight
thing and after a casual inquiry had

A Phosphorus Lamp,

about the size of a pea. Then pour i'll
until one-third full some pure olive Oil
heated to the boiling point and cork
the vial tightly. To get light at IN

and let some air get into the vial and
then put in the cork again. This will
cause the whole empty space in the
vial to become luminous. the light be
ing strong enough to enable you to see

the light grows dim take out the cork

I'm glad that there is something
about me that he likes" said DR.. Paul
Harper grimly. II asked him last night
for permission to marry you. and he
told me hat he had determined that
you should marry a man who would
not only appreciate his collection, but
would add to it,
Lena Cation nodded sagely.
He means Professor katzinger,"
she explained. HE is here so much,
and grow SO tired Of him."
Its a shame" he declared. kat
Finger cares more for mummies than
he does for flesh and blood people. The
idea Of asking you to marry a man like
that! won't let you"
But he is my father" reminded
Lena gently.
The return Of Professor Cation put
a stop to the conversation, and Paul
sat glowering upon the Psychologist,
while the old man studied the odd
scarab with %wondrous eyes
At last with reluctant fingers he re-
turned the scarab to Paul and went to
his study, while Paul and Lena slipped
out for a walk. Ever since Paul had
been an undergraduate at the college
he had loved Lena.
Lena had promised to make every
effort to evade a marriage with Kat
Finger.
With this promise Paul had to rest

citation which had marked his coming
that he took his departure, 1t was
plain to be seen that tho professor
cared more for the advancement of his
collection than he did for his daugh-
ter's happiness, or. more correctly. he
convinced himself that the two inter
ests We're identical. In the eyes OF
Professor Cation a man who did not
care for scarabs was no man at all.
His only interest in Paul lay in the
l%atter's possession Of the odd scarab,
the like of which he had not seen be-
fore in his vast experience. He was
shocked at the careless fashion in
which Paul carried it about in his
waistcoat pocket, and when, just be-
fore the younger mans departure, he
found the precious scarab on the stairs
he told himself it served Paul right if
he lost the treasure.
At the moment he had no thought of
retaining it, but when Paul, missing
the scarab, made inquiry the profess
sor-why he would not say-denied hav-
ing seen if and tho mischief WAS dono
He told himself hat he would pretend
to find it before Paul left, but now
Paul "a gone. and the scarab still re-
posed in the private compartment Of

went about with a heavy sense Of
guilt.

had made him a thief.

RULES FOR MAKING PASTRY.
Goodness Of Room and Hand and Tenn
perature Of Oven Important.

The important things to remember
when making pastry are these: First,
the room and the makers working
hand should be cool; second, the ingre-
dents should be of good quality; third,
the temperature of the oven should be
just right. These rules must be care
fully followed in preparing puff pastry
of the airy kind.
To insure a good. 1aky crust use
half a pound of butter or a quarter
OF a pound of butte, and the same Of
lard to n pound of -four. Divide the
butter into four parts, rub one Of them
into the flour. with which d small tea
spoonful of baking powder should be
mixed and a little salt. Make it into a
paste, turn it on the lightly Toured
Slab and roll it out into Il long strip.
q another portion of the butter cut
in little bits, flour lightly. fold the paste
in three. turf it out and press the sides
together with the pin-this is to eX-
clnde the air-roll it u again into a
strip.
Add the remaining portions of but
ter in the same way. rolling it out be
tween additions; then. after the last
rolling, let the paste remain on ice or
III Il cool place for an hour.
This paste is good for meat pie, pat
ties or tarts. A squeeze of lemon Juice
added to the paste helps to render it
light in texture and white in color.

WHAT AM | DOING?
A Game In Which Absurd Gestures,
Etc, Are Made.

ETC., Are mdQc.
The players take their seats in a
straight Nv Behind them the person
chosen TO lead the game takes his
stand. Placing himself directly behind
the players seated at the top of the
row, he begins to behave in the most
absurd name posSible-for instance,
making grimaces, shaking his fist, rails
ing his arms owe his head, etc: any
foolish gesture he can think Of he
may make. Then he asks the player
before him. What am | dOing:' If
the player cannot guess he must rise
and initiate in silence the antic he
could no divine till he has permission
to stop.
More often than not the players can
not guess what the unseen Qlrestioner
is doing, and as each in turn has to
rise and continue the unguessed ges-
ture the spectacle becomes very laugh
able when five or six are repeating the
late performances of their leader, but
for a smile they pay a forfeit and for
a laugh two forfeits. This is fun for
little folks.
