Il Was Delivered by Caesar and Con.

The story Is told that while Caesar

TO the mutinous soldiers it meant

Rhine to the Pyrenees and across the
Rubicon. disowned them as soldiers

Stuffed Cookies.

Stuffed cookies are somewhat of a
novelty. and very pleasing one They
are quite dainty enough to occupy an
honorable place on the afternoon tea
table. and they are guaranteed great
popularity, particularly among the
young folks and the masculine contin-
gent. The ingredients for the cookies
are a cupful Of white sugar. half a cup
full of butter. an egg. half a cupful of
milk. one teaspoonful vanilla and three
and one-half cupfuls of -four with
which two teaspoonfuls of baking pow
der have been sifted. Make a filing of
half a cupful white sugar. half a cup
full water. a cupful of chopped raisins.
the juice of a lemon and a teaspoonful
-four. Cook this until it becomes thick
and it will bear much watching during
the process. Roll the cookie dough
very thin, as usual. and cut into small
rounds: place these in pans. put a
teaspoonful of the filling in the center
of each and place another cookie gen
tly on top. Bake in a moderately hot
oven.

DEEPEST SLEEP.
It Always Occurs During the First
Hour Of SIumber.

Hour Of SIurber.
Yes" said the doctor, ''sleep is a
very puzzling mystery. Nobody knows
know that 1t is always accompanied
by anaemia of the brain. In other
words, when you sleep the blood
drains away from the head to the
limbs. If you fell asleep on bal
anced bed. the moment you dropped
OF the foot Of the bed would begin to
sink. and the deeper the sleep the
greater the slant.
THAT Is why a hot bath tends to
sleepiness. 1t brings the blood to the
skin and so lessons the supply In the
brain. Curiolisly enough, great cold
has the same effect and for the same
reason. You know how cold swells
and reddens the hands.
Recent experiments have shown
conclusively how pale and b!oodless
the brain grows in sleep. How
Well, a piece of bone has been remov-
ed from the skull of a puppy and a
watchglass inserted instead. The mo-

always at it's deepest in the first hour.

PERFUMED FRUIT.
Five Fingered Oranges Smell Sweet
but Are Not Good to Eat.

most weird looking fruit Is the
five fingered orange. 1t grows in exact
ly the shape of half open hand. Even
the nails are identical. hard pointed
and claw-Iike. tipping the orange
flowers with length equal. In some
cases. to three inches.
1t Is no freak. but proper kind of

the ordinary orange tree should. but is
curved In all directions.

twisted forms. so that the width of the
tree is often greater than the height

color. Of a pure lemon hue. growing
greenish toward the stem. The size is

the tree. the largest ones measuring

the wrist to the point of the middle
finger. including the nail.
But the fruit is not good to eat,
though what 1t lacks In flavor It more
than makes good in perfume. Perhaps
the .strangest thing about this perfume
is that 1t is the fruit and not the flower
that Is odorous.-Pearson's Weekly.

WASHING THE DISHES.
Suggestions to His Brothers by the
Club Woman's Husband.

Suggestions to His Brothers by the
Club Woman's Husband.
Tonight l want to offer my brother
husbandettes a valuable hint about
dishwashing.
When you do the dishes don't set
the dispan in the bottom Of the sink,
as most men do. Sinks may be the
right height for women. but they are
too low for men.
For months l suffered from crick in
the back, aching shoulders, stiff neck
and abdominal cramps. l consulted
our family physician without obtain
ing relief.
At last, quite by accident, lit on
the cause Of my trouble. a pile Of
skillets and saucepans had been left
in the sink. and l put the dishpan on
them. Then l was not obliged to
bend over so far as usual. and that
day had hardly any lumbago pains
at all.
Since then have rested the dishpan
on couple of bricks placed in the
bottom Of the sink. and l wash the
dishes standing almost erect The
roses are coming back into my cheeks.
and our whole home is brighter as a
result of my lucky discovery.
am sure that my men readers will
be saved many miserable hours II they
will follow my suggestion. The bricks
may DO used between times as door
shoppers, foot warmers or nutcrackers.
Tomorrow evening l will tell you
what l know about washing granite
ware.-Newark News.

The Term Philoao pher.

The word philosopher is said to
have originated with the celebrated
Pythagoras. who was born about 5T0
b. @. The word means a lover of wis
dom. Pythagoras must have been a
very remarkable man. for it Is certain
that he made a profound and lasting
impression upon his time. He was
the originator Of the idea that nature
Is a harmony and that its varied phe-
nomena are all brought about by un-
erring and universal laws and are an
expression Of nothing less than the
universe itself. True to the name he
gave himself. Pythagoras is said to
have devoted his whole life to the &C
QUESTION of knowledge to the end that
he might impart it TO others without
money and without price. He was
one Of the noble influences Of antiq
uity. and the effects of his unselfish
labors are still visible among men,

INDIANA SECURES
BIG EMO OF SCORE
The DOWNSTAIRS Were Too
Heavy and Classy for
the Quakers.

Earlham college was beaten in a
fast game of basketball last night by
the University of Indiana five. The
score was 81 to H. The Earlham team
started off with rush that looked
like victory but before long the size
of the state team began to tell and
the local team slowly lost ground. Ev-
cry one of the DOWNSTAIRS, except one
of the forwards, was about six feet
in height. Coach Thistlethwaite's men
played excellent basketball during the
whole game, and although outclassed
by their opponents, gave them hard
fight. The referee, Gipe of Wabash.
proved slightly partial and was Kissed
by the Earlham crowd and by some
Richmond spectators in the Coliseum.
Earlham's guards, Williams and
SharpIess. played especially well and
nearly all of the men played hard SO
that Indiana was forced to put in their
best men. Barnhardt and Mccullough
played the best game for Indiana.
