How 70 Make New Butter curls.

As usual. when we want something
novel and dainty in cooking or in table
accessories, we turn 10 our French
neighbors for the idea This time it
is a device TO make the butter for the
table into a curl shape.
For this purpose the French have
invented knife-like article with the
end of the blade shaped like a hook.
This hook is saw-edged. Have ready
a bowl containing ice place the bowl
in your lap, place square pound OF
butter on a plate on the table in front
OF you. Plunge the butter curler into
hot water and run It over the surface
OF the butter moving the knife toward
you. The buttec will roll into a curl
right into the bowl OF ice. These but
ter curls are quite the latest thing in
the serving of butter.

Cuckoo Reformation.

A remarkable case of reformation
on the part of two old cuckoos is re-
ported by Col A NJ Blake from his
estate at Welwyn, Herts, England.
The colonel states that he found
two young cuckoos with the parent
birds in faithful attendance. As is
generally known, the regular habit of
the cuckoo is to lay its eggs in the
nests of other birds, leaving the rear
ing of their offspring to perfect
strangers.
This is said to be the third success
sive year that cuckoos have brought
up their young at Welwyn.

The Lambertvile Record last week
passed into the hands of its new own
ers, the Wickecheoke Corporation
Theodore G. Kitchin is the editor, s.
III. Sutton, business manager, and
George X. Todd superintendent of the
mechanical department. The form of
the paper has been changed to a mag
azine size and style, with the predict
ion on the part of the editor that some
day all weekly newspapers will follow
the style adopted by him. The new
style has some advantage. and it might
from newspaper publishers stand
point. be said to have some disadvant-
ages and time only will say if all week
ly newspapers ever get far away from
the present size and style.
The management has also abandon
ed the Republican party, which the
Record has espoused for forty years,
and become independent inpolitics, re-
cognizing as more or less good the
Republican, Democrat, Prohibitio
and Social political parties, but seems
to have looked, in its new iudepend.
ency, over the heads of the Progress
ives and whether they can see no
good in "Bull Mooser," or if their
failnte to catalogue them be an over

aims and refreshing appearance, and
if its ambition be realized will certain

Washington and Bray

With the return of Washington's
Birthday, Lambertyille people may
we'll feel proud that the most momen-
tous event in American history, and
the best known event in the worlds
history (since the Christian era) hap
pened within seven miles of its Dor
ders.
No other incident stands out so
striking in all history as the crossing
of the Delaware by General George
Washington on Christmas night, 1916.
That his crossing was made possible
by the act of John Bray, a Kingwood
man, in collecting the boats makes the
remembrance of the occasion one of
interest to all Hunterdon countians.
The knowledge that when other gen
erals failed to get across, and many of
the officers got cold feet, figuratively
as we'll as literally, General Bray's
loyalty and perseverance under condi
lions that would have swamped most
men, is thing that should make Hun
terdon county people glad that he was
one of their citizens.
Rosemont, the village of the live
and city of the dead" possesses the
burying ground in which General
Bray's remains are inferred, and if
must be confessed, shamefacedly, that
although the New Jersey Legislature
and the national Congress have both
squandered millions in useless junket-
ing along other lines, not a dollar has
been contributed toward monument
to the memory of this man who made
Washington's great triumph possible

in its favor, some OF the New jersey

nothing OF demerit unless we consider
that its terms could have been even
