A. peIIahsfuT Dinner Party.


Thackeray liked to dine alone at tho
Star and Garter, a famous hostelry in
Richmond, near London. Harry Fur
Miss, whose fame as an illustrator is
International, in speaking Of this Pc
culiarity Of the novelist, said:
IAN old acquaintance Of mine, Sir
James O'Dowd, great friend Of
Thackeray's, told me that Thackeray
often drove all alone to the Star and
Garter and went solemnly through an
elaborate course dinner and returned
10 town in his carriage, still in solitary
state. O'Dowd happened to be dining
one evening at the Star and Garter in
another room and, strolling into the
larger one, came across Thackeray,
screened of from the other diners and
just finishing his elaborate repast.
"'Well, Thackeray,' he said, you are
an extraordinary man-here all alone
when you must have known any or all
of us would have kept you company
"'All alone! My dear O'Dowd,' cried
Thackeray, 4 alone! Why, have had
the best Of companions a man could
entertain. Becky has just left, and
Pendennis, Colonel Newcome and l
have had delightful evening. The
colonel has not had such jolly tuck
in for years."

ITO the Bitter End.n

The derivation Of the often used
phrase Ito the bitter end II explained
by a writer in the New York Sun a.
follows:
It Is a nautical term. If you have
ever been on a big ship you must have
noticed two large pieces Of timber
sticking up out Of the deck forward.
alongside each other. They sometimes
have a windlass between them. and
they are used to secure the anchor ca
BILE. These pieces Of wood are called
the "bits."
When the ship comes to anchor and
the cable is paid out all that part Of
It which is abaft or behind the bits
Is called the "bitter end Of the cable"
In a storm or in poor holding ground
for the anchors the more cable that IL
paid out the better the anchor Will
hold, and when the captain is at all
doubtful he pays out his cable to the
'bitter end" sooner than risk any harm
to his ship.

DELICIOUS DOUGHNUTS.

DELICIOUS DOUGHNUTS.
TA7HEN it is time to think of the
" Thanksgiving turkey and the
Thanksgiving mince pie the
mind naturally turns to thoughts of
doughnuts. Good doughnuts fresh from
the pan and sprinkled with sugar
would tempt an anchorite.
One secret of making good dough-
nuts is to have fat enough in the fry
ing pan to cover them and to have this
boiling hot The doughnuts must be
taken from the pan the instant they
are done or they will become grease
soaked. After they are cooked they
should be drained on paper or soft
cloth.
Easy to Digest.
Batter Doughnuts. Take one-half
cupful Of sugar, two eggs, one cupful
Of sour milk, six level teaspoonfuls
of melted lard and one-half teaspoon
full of soda. Stir as stiff as possible
with flour. Drop from a teaspoon in
frying pan of hot fat and fry brown.
Dip the spoon in fat after each time
and the batter will not stick to the
spoon.
Spiced Doughnuts.-Take cupful of
sugar, one cupful of warm mashed po-
tatoes, pint and half of flour, one
half cupful Of milk, one egg, one tea
spoonful of butter, one-fourth tea
spoonful of baking powder, one-fourth
teaspoonful of ginger and one tea
spoonful of nutmeg. Roll rather thin,
cut, fry, then dust with powdered
sugar.
These Will Be ReIished.
Rich DOughnuts.-Take three eggs
and beat them until light Add one
and half cupfuls of sugar. Beat
again. Sift one level teaspoonful of
baking soda into a cupful of sour
cream, add to the sugar and eggs, then
add one small taspoonful Of salt, one
teaspoonful of cinnamon and half
grated nutmeg. Mix with sufficient
flour to make a soft dough. Roll about
half an inch thick. Cut out and fry In
hot lard.
Raised Doughnuts.-Takeo one pint OF
lukewarm milk, one teaspoonful or
salt, one tablespoonful of sugar, one
half yeast cake, one-quarter cupful or
lukewarm water and flour. Heat the
milk lukewarm and add to it the SALT
the sugar, the yeast dissolved In the
water and -four enough to make a
dough that can be handled. 1t should
be as soft as possible. Knead well
and let it rise all night. In the morn
ing place it on a well Toured board,
handling it lightly. Roll and cut 1t IN
strips and then join the ends to form
rings. Fry in plenty of hot fat until
n golden brown color. Serve at once
while hot and crisp.

Now and then old rats become very

of cotton flannel gloves on when they
bait it. A very tempting bait for such
rats is fresh meat, and the piece used
should be fastened on to the tongue of
the trap with rubber band or piece
