Dickens In the Quaker City,

Political graft in Philadelphia is rot
without precedent. Here is an ux-
ample of its occurring 20 years ago,
told by Mr.. Joseph Jackson in the
Worlds Work.
TT was when Charles Dickens was
visiting that city. A man who had a
pleasant address and was locally prom
inent, was introduced to the Gistin-
guished visitor, and before leaving, re-
ceived Dickens permission to bring a
few friends to see him. The following
day the hotel literally was mobbed The
street in front of the house was i'm
p%assable; the corridors of the hotel
were packed, and the landlord was dis
tracted; for Dickens refused to receive
this mighty army. Finally the land
lord prevailed upon him to hold a levee,
urging that, if he did not accede, a riot
very probably would result. The
humor Of the situation overcame Boz's
former decision; he relented, and for
two hours he received this crowd. He
then learned that the crafty politician
had inserted a note in the newspapers
that Dickens would receive the citizens
who would call at a certain hour. AS
for this ingenious person, he stood be-
side Dickens introducing by name al
most every man in the line, and making
political capital out Of his assumed in
timacy with the novelist"

Blame Hard Water for Bad Tea.
From the New York World.

A German scientist who has been
conducting a series Of experiments for
the purpose Of determining the relative
values Of hard and soft water for cook
ing purposes has discovered that the
water Is very often to blame when the
tea, coffee or soup doesn't taste Just
right.
For instance, If cocoa Is made Of soft
water a pleasant and rich drink Is OBJ
tanned which, after short boiling, de-
posits the cocoa powder. Even If the
cocoa is made into a paste with a little
water and the cup then filled with hot
water, the largest part Of the powder
will p~recipitate and the beverage will
still be rich and pleasant. If, however,
hard water Is used. fakes will at once
appear and the oil in the cocoa will be
seen floating on the surface of the
drink. The flakes will soon settle and
the beverage is far less tasty than the
one obtained with soft water. Similar
observations may be noticed in the
preparation Of soups or oatmeal, which
remain flaky ven after long boiling.
In the preparation of tea the hard wa
ter causes the formation of a thin film.

CHAPTER VI.
JUST A D1sAGREEABLE OLD MAN.

The l%uncheons at G%rosvenor Square
were always rather dull and formal,
but Louisa did not min that very
much. She was used to dull n form
al affairs; they were part and parcel
of her daily life. London society is
full Of it. The dull and formal domin-
ate; the o~thers-vulgar if more lively
were not worth cultivating.
Then. she almost liked Lord Rad
clyffe, because he was SO fond Of Luke.
And even then almost" was a big
word. No one-except Luke-could
was very bad tempered, very
dictational, a perfect tyrant in his
own household. His opinions no one
dared contradict, no one cared to argue
with him, and his advanced Tory views
were Sc rabid that he almost made per-
verts from the cause, of all those whom
he desired to convince.
And even these were few. for Lord
Radcliffe had no friends and very few
acquaintance. He had a strange and
absolute dislike for his fellow men. He
did not like seeing people, he hated to
exchange greetings, to ak or to mingle
with any crowd that was purely on
house n made speeches-political,
philanthropic. economic speeches.
which Luke prepared for him, and
which he spoke without enthusiasm or
any desire to please. This he did, not
because he liked 1t or too any inter
est in things political, philanthropic or
economic, but only because he con
sidered that a man in his position
owed certain duties to the state
duties which it would be cowardly to
shirk-
But he really cared nothing for the
thoughts of others, for their opinions,
their Joys or their sorrows. He had
schooled himself not to care, to call
philanthropy empty sentiment. politics
senseless ambition. economic grasping
avarice.
His was a life entirely wrapped up
in itself. In youth he had peer very
shy-a shyness caused at first by a
serious defect of speech. which, though
cured in later years, always left an
unconquerable diffdence, an almost
morbid fear of ridicule in its train.
Because Of this. l think, he had
never been a sportsman-or. rather,
had never been an athlete, for he was

volver shot in England, so I've been
told. and an acknowledged master of
fence. but with bat, ball. or racquet
he was invariably clumsy.
HI had always hated to be laughed
at, and, therefore. had never gone
through the rough mill of a tyro in
athletics or in games. Arthur, one
OF his brothers, had been a blue at

Uses OF Potato In Germany.
From the National Magaz,ne.

In Germany the potato is utilized fer
a number Of different purposes. To
avert decay. lessen bulk and cost Of
transportation, and to furnish an i'm
proved food for man and beast, some
25. 600, 900 bushels are annually dessi-
Gated by the drum process. The pota-
toes are cleaned. steamed and pared,
and passed between great hollow rolls
heated by steam, on which the mashed
potato forms in a dry flake, which is
automatically scraped off. and looks
very much like our corn flakes" It
is a substitute for the raw vegetable,
is ground into Jour and used in bread
making and as a cereal food.
In Germany 1t costs about $1.30 per
ton to reduce potatoes to one-fourth
their original weight. Most of the
product is stored as winter feed for all
kinds of live stock, having about the
same feeding value as corn. In many
localities distant from favorable mar
kets the potato grove is now able to
save his more profitable cereals for
family use and for the market. and to
store dried potatoes for his stock.

CHARLESTON, S. c., March %. 1912.
The Huguenot Church of this city is
preparing to commemorate. April IA. the
two-hundred- and-twenty- fifth anniversary
of it's foundation. This is the Oldest
church in South Carolina, founded by
those French refugees who after the re-
vocation Of the edict of Nantes in 1855
sought protection in the new colony of
Carolina and contributed much not only
to the prosperity of Charleston, but to the
character Of it's civilization during the
formative years of the city. Many names
of those old Huguenot settlers are borne
by Charleston's most honored citizens to-
day, but the majority Of their descendants
are scattered all over the United States.
It is, in fact, with the hope of alluring
those scattered members OF the family
to spend a day in the church of their
forefathers that this commemoration is
being arranged. 1t is by the pious care
OF many Of these scattered sons that me-
