Hot Biscuit.

A Southern meal without hot biscuit is
practically unknown. We of the North
have not yet learned the secret of those
wonderful little spheres OF crispness, pip

we cut them too large. They should
never be more than two inches in d.

A good recipe is one quart of -four.

nv JULIA CHANDLER MANI.

You will find her in both the domestic
and commercial fields Of life-the woman
who never really works and never really
plays.
In either place she is a rank failure.
Because she is never through with her
work she cannot get it out Of her mind
when she turns to n pleasurabIe time.
II she is a business woman she forms the
habit of worrying over her office work
out of office hours; impairing her health,
and destroying her mental polse by the
habit. for no one can be physically
healthy nor mentally happy who allows
the habit of worry to get a grip on the
mind.
The woman who mentally follows the
work she has left undone all the time
she is at play wears out her vitality, i'm
pairs her health. and units herself for
the actual service she must perform when
she goes back TO office or shop.
Criminal Against Herself.
Almost invariably you will find that the
woman who cannot forget her work
during her hours of supposed relaxation
and recreation possesses the fault OF
allowing play to creep into her working
hours. The woman whose mind dwells
on her outside recreation at the same
time that she is trying to work is
criminal against herself.
She is killing her concentrative ability;
destroying her power TO do with her
whole might; making It impossible for
her to give her best energy and thought
to the work before her to be accom-
plished.

RICHESON WILL
MAKE PLEA TO-DAY
Counsel to Ask Clemsncy on
Ground of Insanity.

Boston. Jan. S-Rey. Clarence v. T.
Richeson, who on Saturday confessed
that he had caused the death OF Avis
Linnell. the little choir singer to whom
he had been engaged, will be arraignOd
tomorrow TO enter a plea to the charge
Of murder.
The impression Is general tonight that
the young clergyman will not pay the
extreme penalty Of his atrocious crime,
but that the death sentence which will
be passed on him tomorrow will be
commuted by the governor and council
to life imprisonment. Richesons counsel
have announced that they will plead for
clemency on the ground that their client
Is insane.
Go. Foss and his councillors are known
to be in favor OF clemency and the
record Of three others q such that
Richeson has reason TO hope
A food OF letters have begun to how
into the ofice OF Gov. Foss in behalf
OF the prisoner. There is feeling that
Gov. Foss will turn the petitioners names
to good account. and request them to In
fiuence their legislators IN helping him
to change the law and abolish capital
punishment in the electric chair. form
Of penalty he appears TO be very much
opposed to.
Prof. Frederick L Anderson. OF the
Newton Theological Institution. called at
the courthouse to-day, seeking permls-
sion to see Richeson, with view to act
ing as his spiritual adviser. Prof. An
derson said he did not care to discuss
the case.
District Attorney PeiIetier insisted to-
day that no plea other than murder In
the first degree would be accepted
Poisoning can be only FIRST degree
murder in this Commonwealth" he add
ed. land you must remember" he sug-
gested, that confession Is not a plea OF
guilty. Nobody can know what Richie
son will do until he appears in court
