HER "BEST FRIEND"
A Woman Thus Speaks of Postum.

We usually consider our best friends
those who treat us best.
Some persons think coffee a real
friend, but watch it carefully awhile
and observe that it is one of the
meanest of all enemies, for it stabs
one while protesting friendship.
Coffee contains poisonous drug
caffeine-which Injuries the delicate
nervous system and frequently sets
up disease in one or more organs of
the body, if its use is persisted in.
Il had heart palpitation and nerv-

Female.

Nj. Brown issued forth from Fair
bank Terrace and wended his way to-
wards the village inn. An insurance
agent named Dawson was holding
forth.
Do you know Fairbank Terrace
Several nodded assent. and Mr..
Brown became more deeply interested.
Well, believe me, gents, I've kissed
every woman in that terrace except
one"
Mr.. Browns face assumed a purple
hue, and hurriedly quafing his ale he
quilted the barroom. Rushing home,
he burst in at the door.
Mary" he shouted, do you know
that insurance chap. Dawson" Mary
nodded assent. Well he continued,
I've just heard him say he's kissed

one"
Mary was silent for a moment, and
then with look of womanly curios-

German Princes, Wanderiahr

The prince Of Wales might possibly
enjoy his German trip still better i
he could view the country in the I'M
conventional way followed by the
German crown prince and his broth
ers. Like all the Hohenzollerns, the
kaiser's SONS We're taught trades, and
their father also allowed them to taste
the delights of the 'wanderjahr,
which still forms part of the education
of most German artisans
In the case of the young princes
the year was split up over several sue
cessive summer holidays, which they
spent tramping through Germany,
knapsack on back and sleeping at
roadside inns. They travelled without
a servant accompanied only by their
military governor, Col Won Falken-

APPROPRIATE SAUCES.

A pudding is made or marred by the
sauce which is served with it. 1t
may not seem so important on first
thought, but the blending of flavors
IS as fine a point TO consider as the
blending of cOlors in a painting or in
garments to wear. The world is too
full of people like the woman who
had a great deal of taste, but it was
all bad
The French chef shows his artistic
sense in the manner which he blends
iiavors. 1t is an art, a science which
all cooks should cultivate, the art of
seasoning
Few people know what to add tc a
dish to give it its distinctive piquancy,
which it is so evidently lacking. Many
times it may be a dash of salt OF a
pinch Of mace, a drop Of vanilla, or
any number of things which the keen
sense Of the trained cook at once
detects.
This wonderful art of seasoning
makes the difference in different PEG
pies dishes, some are so satisfying,
so well favored and well seasoned
that never a morsel is wasted; others
are so fiat, stale and Improbable. al
though good material has been used,
that much is wasted
Whipped cream is a most delicious
sauce, which is very much abused and
is served in some homes on every va
riety of pudding. If one considered a
moment the fitness of things it would
be most apparent that a rich pudding
should have a sauce not so rich in fat.
For example a sponge souffle. being
made OF eggs and rather tasteless i'll
itself, needs a rich sauce OF butter.
creamed with powdered sugar, fla
vored and made foamy with whipped
cream. A rich suet pudding is best
served with an egg sauce, thinned
with milk and favored as desired
The salad dressing is another i'm
portant point to consider, even the
simple French dressing, which one
would think might be made by an
amateur, is often ruined by too much
vinegar. One part of vinegar TO two
of oil and often three OF oil if Wor-
cestershire is used bit of ice helps
to blend the q. essing, and salt and
cayenne must be added TO taste
In meat sauces dash of onion
juice, touch of assafoetida. a sus
picion Of garlic will transform an
ordinary dish into what the French
call a creation.

ject to mildew. The removal of the
flowers and prevention of seed pots
lengthens the blooming period.
The pansy is a favorite with all,
but is not so easily grown as some
of the ANNALS For early bloom the
seed should be sown in the fall in
beds and transplanted to pots as win
ter approaches. 1t the spring these
little plants may be set in beds and
will bloom in profusion early in the
summer Except in the far north il
is possible TO winter the plants by
leaving in outdoor beds and covering
with mulch which should be raked
off in the spring. Seed sown in rich
soil in July will produce blooming
plants for the fall months
The best of the annual climbers
are Moonflower, Morning Glory, Cy,
press. Canary-Bird flower and Doll
chos. Moonflower seed should be
soaked in warm water over night, and
the seed of all should be sown in
boxes and later transplanted in rich

MEANS TO PREVENT
EGG-EATIhG HABIT
Fowls That Are Given Free Range
Usually Find Plenty OF
Employment.

One Of the most annoying Things the

ing some element that is contained in
her ration. but hardly think this is
correct ! believe the lack of food
and idleness is the cause, says a writ
er in the Farm Progress.
But no matter what the cause, 1t is
a good idea to use means to prevent
the hens from forming the habit. for
prevention is always the cheapest
cure If the nests are placed at a
height that will prevent the hens
standing on the ground and reaching
into them, the danger of egg-eating
will be lessened; for if nests are
made so small that the hens cannot
stand erect in them. they will not eat
the eggs, for the hen demands some
comfort while making her meal
once noticed number of China
eggs lying around the floor of poul-
try house and, upon asking the keep
or the reason. was informed that this
vas the plan to prevent the egg-eat-
ing habit
1t will be very seldom that the hens
will contract the habit if they are
kept busy. Hens that are given free
range usually find plenty of employ
ment. but those that are confined
should be given plenty of litter with
grain scattered through it, that they
may be kept working all the time
through the day.
When number of the flock con
tract the habit it will take consid
cradle effort to break them, hence the
necessity of taking all means to pre-
vent the practice. When only one or
two of the hens have learned the
habit it is best to dispose of them
unless very valuable.
