Breathe Through the Nose.

Breathing through the nose Is i'm
portant, not only for the purpose OF
filtering the air by removing dust and
germs, but in cold weather for the pur-
pose of moistening and warming the
air before 1t enters the deeper air pas
sages. The total surface OF the nasal
cavity has been estimated to be on an
average of about Is square inches. The
mouth surface has an area of less than
IL square inches. or only tbout two
thirds that of the nose. 1t has been
noted that runners who breathe
through the nose have much greater
endurance than those who breathe
through the mouth.

CHAPTER xv,Il.-contlnued.

"Mr. Van Camp and his friend came
in Just after I'd put you to bed. Miss
Redmond. and ate a bite OF breakfast
right OF that table; and twas mercy
I'd cleared all the kulch outer the at
tic. as l did last week. for Mr.. Van
Camp he wanted place to sleep;
and he's up there now. Used to be a
whole lot er the parsons books up
there: but put them on a shelf in
the spare room. The other man went
OF toward the village"
Agatha, looking about the pleasant
kitchen, was tempted to linger. Sal
lies conversation yielded, to the dis
cerning, something of the rich essence
of the past; and Agatha began to
yearn for better knowledge of the
recluse who had been her friend, un-
known, through all the years. But she
remembered her industrious plans for
the day and postponed her talk with
Sallie.
81 remember there used to be a
grove, a stretch of wood. somewhere
beyond the church. Sallie. Which way
is it-along the path that goes
through the churchyard3"
mo, this way; right back er the
yard. Parson Thayer he used to walk
that way quite often" Sallie went
with Agatha to another stile beyond
the churchyard and pointed over the
pasture to a fringe of dark trees along
the farther border. Right there by
that apple tree. the path Is. But don't
20 far, Miss Redmond; the woods ain t
healthy"
"All right. Sallie; thank you. I'll
not stay long" She called Danny and
started out through the pasture. with
the hound. sober and digniaed and
happy. at her heels.
The wood was cool and dim. with
an uneven wagon road winding in and
out between the stumps. Enormous
sugar-maples reared their forms here
and there; occasionally 1.-the birch
lifted tossing head; and, farther
within, pines shot their straight
trunks, arrow.like. up to the canopy
above.
Farther along. the road widened into
a little clearing, beyond which the
birch and maple trees gave place en-
tirely to pines and hemlocks. The un-
derbrush disappeared, and brown
carpet Of needles and cones spread far
under the shade The leafy rustic of
the deciduous trees ceased. and ma
testic stiffness. deeper than thought,
pervaded the place. At the clearing
just within this deeper wood Agatha
paused, sat down on a stone and took
Danny's head in her lap. The dog
looked up into her face with the wist-
full, melancholy gaze of his kind. in
articulate yet eloquent.
The sun was nearly at zenith. and
bright fiecks of light lay here and
there over the brown earth. AS
Agatha grew accustomed to the shade,
it seemed pleasant and not at all un-
cheerful-the gaiety of sunlight sub
dued only to softer tone. The reso-
luton which had brought her thither
returned. She stood up under the
dome of pines and began softly to sing.
trying her voice first In single tones.

FISH FOR HOLIDAYS.

One may always get fish in most
hotels on Friday, II no other day
in the week. as 80 many people
eschew meat on that day.
For the real fish lover there is moth
ing equal to the paper bag for roast
ing fish. as it keeps in every bit Of
the characteristic flavor. Grease the
bag and place the fish, stuffed and
seasoned, in the bag. Lay the bag on
the oven rack, 80 that 1t can be easily
drawn out. When a slice Of halibut
is to be baked, place a few slices OF
tomato, and bake in the bag. The
sauce which will be found In the bag
after roasting may be poured over the
fish when serving.
Fresh perch are fine favored fish
IL well dressed and cooked. A little
salt pork tried out to fry them in and
bit Of onion to add flavor. Roll the
fish in seasoned cornmeal before put
ting to fry.
Creamy croquettes.-F1sh Gro
quettes which are soft and creamy
may be made so in two ways. II they
are made with . white sauce. not too
thick and thoroughly chilled before
cooking. when dropped into the hot
fat the outside will be brown before
the sauce has softened much. Anoth.
er mothed Is to add little gelatine to
the white sauce, which will keep them
firm and quite stin until after they
are fried. teaspoonful OF gelatine
will be sufficient.
Finnan haddie is fine cooked in milk
and a few strips of green peppers laid
over 1t for flavor.
A very dainty way to serve fillets
of fish Is to add to each layer of fish
a layer Of stuffing of any kind; fold or
roll the fillet around the forcemeat,
and fasten with wooden skewer.
Squeeze lemon juice over and cover
with buttered paper: bake ten to
twenty minutes. according to the
thickness of the fish.
Water cress. lemon slices. cucumber
and radishes, as well as parsley, may
all be used for a garnish for fish

Take Plenty Of Time to Eat.

There is saying that "rapid eating
is slow suicide" If you have formed
the habit of eating too rapidly you are
most likely suffering from indigestion
or constipation, which will result
eventually in serious illness unless cor
rected. Digestion begins in the mouth.
Food should be thoroughly masticated
and insalivated. Then when you have
a fullness of the stomach or feel dull
and stupid after eating, take one of
Chamberlain's Tablets. Many severe
cases of stomache trouble and consti-
patton have been cured by the use of
these tablets. They are easy to take
and most agreeable in effect. Sold by
all dealers. je

After leaving the creek | took my
way through the painless woods until
| struck the public road, on which my
farm was situated mile or so farther
on.
Nov that | have gained the public
road, / reflected, | can make better
time; and was about to hasten on,
when | rocked back up the road to the
west and saw a man just coming in
sight over a hill, some three or four
hundred yards away, driving a cow
at least an animal belonging to the
kline family, though at that distance
could not determine whether male or
female.
"The man had a rope lcoped around
the animals horns and the two were
coming down the road, walking leisure
ly along and seemingly well contented.
Owing to the distance between us,
and the gathering shadows of night,
| could not make out Just who the
cow-driver was, but thought it was
either Bob Elkins, Nathan Ward or
Jim Hill.
Being of a sociable nature, though
| was in hurry to get home to Mary
and the baby. decided to wait until
the man with the COW came up and
the three of US go on together so long
as our destinations should lead in the
same direction.
They were coming down a long and
rather steep hill and as the two APP
preached me could see that the COW
was making efforts to increase her
speed and was being held back by the
man.
The nearer they came to me the
more disconnected the COW became
with her rate of speed, shaking her
head, paving the earth and plunging
for ward, the driver at the ssame time
/ digging his heels in the ground and
pulling back at the end of the rope in
desperate effort to hold her.

Stories of The Town
Things Serious and Frivolous Talk
ed About on The Streets Of
the County Hub.
REPORTED BY Il. c. HAYNES

At the conclusion Of the story of
Dog-Owner No. 3 it was agreed be-
tween the assembled dog-owners that
No. l should take up his adventure
where he left off, it will be remember
ed. at the suggestion of Dog-Owner
No. 4, owing to the persistent inter-
ruptions of Dog-Owners Nos. 2 and

lows:
GAS have intimated, gentlemen,
MD Nab was a sagacious dog, uncom =
monty watchful as to the welfare OF
the household over which he had been
trained from his puphood to guard.
Though he was friendly lenough with
our neighbors and friends, no stran-
ger dared venture within the gates;
and, moreover, though he commingled
on friendly terms with our own fiocks
and Herds, no tramp COW or stay hog
was allowed around the premises.
"Waen on this occasion, therefore,
l decided to leave the soil unturned
and the clods unpulverized in the field
and betake myself away fishing, | felt
no misgiving in leaving my wife ano
baby at home with old Nab doing pick

the situation of things mundane when

my pockets, and that, | reflected, was
not glaring enough to attract the at
tention or the animosity of the beast.
"On cayorted the cow, rearing and
plunging. and on followed the driver,
pulling manfully at the end of the
rope. AS they came thus on toward
me, | heard the man bawl out some
thing indistinctly, as he seemed to be
about out of breath, but which | took

"'Run, Ben, run! The COW has
hydrophobia'
ION hearing the word hydrophobia,
needed no other incentive to induce
me to vacate that locality at once and
to put as many feet of soil as possible
between me and the COW.
81 therefore obeyed the voice of the
cow driver and started off and down
the road in a run, leaving a b.ue streak
behind me, my string of fish in one
hand and my hat in the other.
ION | dashed down the road toward
home and on rushed the cow and
the driver after me, the latter
fast losing all control over the unman-
ageable beast.
"Still on l plunged, plumbing the
, middle of the road and kicking up the
dust that lay thick in my pathway,
and as was thus dashlng onward in
an effort to widen the distance be-
tween me and the blamed cow, | heard
a rip-roaring OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES SOUND
