up the basket. After this was done Bruce and Ramabai
and Ahmed the indefatigable carried the gold and pre-"
cious stones to the especially made saddlebags. All told,
it took fully an hour to complete the work.
With water and food, and well armed, they began the
journey back to Alfalfa, a formidable cortege and in no
tender mood. They proceeded in forced marches, snatch
ing what sleep they could during the preparation Of the
meals. "a #
Many a time the impulse came to Bruce to pluck the
shining metal and sparkling stones from the saddlebags
and toss them out into the jungle, to be lost till the
crack of doom. There were also moments when he felt
nothing but hatred toward the father of the girl he
loved. For these strinkets Kathlyn had gone through
fortunes as frightful almost as those in the days Of the
inquisition. Upon one thing he and Ahmed had agreed.
despite Ramabais wild protest; they would leave tho
walls of Alfalfa. If harm befell any Of their loved ones
not one stone should remain upon another. And Bruce
declared that he would seek UmbaIlah to the ends Of
the earth for the infinite pleasure of taking his black
throat in his two, hands and squeezing the life out OF It.
Eventually and without mishap they came to the
walled city Of the desert, Balakhan's stronghold. BaIa.
khan of necessity was always ready, always prepared.
Before night of the day Of their arrival an army was
gathered within the city, fierce eyed, lean Joined men

That was well. A t least that meant that his Sahib and

Yes, Ahmed. UmbalIah got the best Of us. We
were tricked by the truant elephant. He has taken
Kathlyn back toward Alfalfa"
"And SO shall we return!" ~
Ahmed called to his weary men. His idea was to fill
the elephant saddle bags with the gold and stones, leave
it in trust with Balakhan, who should in truth this
time take his tulwar down from the wall. He divided
his men, one company to guard and the other to labor.

TESTED RECIPES.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis ters: May I be admitted to your Cor ner? I enjoy reading the letters from all the Sisters and always read them each Saturday.
 How fast the summer did go, and now it is fall. guess we all hate to think of the long winter which will soon be here.
 I send a few recipes which hope some of the Sisters will try.
 Plain Cake-One cup of sugar, but ter size of an egg. one egg, one cup of flour, two teaspoons of baking powder, flavor to taste. This rule is always re- liable.
 Fremont cake-One cup sugar, one half cup butter, two eggs, one-half cup milk, two cups flour, two teaspoons of baking powder. Flavor to taste.
 Gingersnaps-Two cups of molasses, one cup of sugar, one cup of shorten ing, one cup of hot water, two heaping of ginger; bake in a hot oven. This is the rule which my great-grandmother used for cookies. My mother often makes them for us to carry to school they are so tasty.
 I wonder how many of the Sisters have made eggless cake? It is nice when eggs are scarce. Here is a rule:
 EggIess Cake-Two- thirds cup of sugar, thirds of a cup of sweet milk third of a cup of butter, two cups of flour, two teaspoons of baking powder, one cup of chopped raisins; sprinkle with sugar before putting in the oven.
 Corncakes-Two cups of corn, one egg, one tablespoon of flour, one tea spoon of salt, little pepper. These are fried on a griddle the same as griddle cakes. They are delicious if eaten hot with butter on them.
 Best wishes to all.

ENJOYED THE TENT AT THE FAIR

Dear Social Cornerites: As the So- cial Corner has so large g. family we cannot all speak at once, so I do not write very often for fear of crowding someone else who writes more enter tainingly than I do. Yet I feel have a place in The Corner of The Bulletin, as used to write quite regular for it's columns more than forty years ago, before some of it's present writers were born.
 We have had either The Courier or The Bulletin in our family for over fifty years, which I think shows I love it's pages and endorse it's sentiments.
 Since the Social Corner has become such an important part of the paper am more deeply interested in it than ever.
 I was very glad to make the ac- quaintance of Crimson Rambler, Aunt Abby, Merry Widow, Peggy Anne, The Farmer and several others at the Norwich fair on Tuesday last En- joyed eating my lunch in the tent pro- vided for us through the courtesy of The Bulletin. The chairs were very restful after walking around to see the sights. and I think we ought to give The Bulletin a vote of thanks for it's though ghtfulness.
 Win say goodbye for this time, so as to give room for others
