WHY CHILDREN LIE.
Some interesting Facts on a Vital
Subject.

ouDJcSt'
In the September Pictorial Review
are given some remarkable facts re
garding childrens lies, their causes
and sometimes serious effects. The
following the case of an ordinar-
lily truthful little girl who without
any particular reason went off on Il
rampage of prevaricaton:
Some years ago in New York City
there lived family of German i'm
migrants, father, mother and twelve
year-old daughter The parents were
plain, simple, hard-worlIing people
who had been exceedingly careful in
the upbringing of their child, a
pretty little girl of dreamy tempera-
ment and a decided talent for music
She was, indeed, so passionately fond
of the piano that she spent many
hours at practise every day, her am
bition being to become so proficient
that she might some time be in
vited to play before the president
One day at the dedication of
Grants Tomb, she saw President and
Mrs. Mckinley, and a few days after
ward returned from school in a state
of great excitement Mr.. and Mrs
Mckinley, she declared, had visited
the school, heard her play, might

quently. The commotion this news
occasioned in the little household
may easily be imagined. This was
increased when, a day or so later, the
girl said that she had again talked
with Mrs Mckinley, and that the
latter was anxious to have her go
to Washington very soon.
Unfortunately she added, President

and his wife had run out of funds.

and sent her off rejoicing. When she
returned she was carrying a fine bou-
quet, which she declared Mrs. McKin-
ley had asked her to give to her par
ents. She talked ihtelligently of po-
litical matters, and her father was
foolish enough to resign his position
in order to accept the fivethousand'
dollar job that, according to his
daughter. was awaiting him in Wash
ington
Finally when he made belated in
quiry at an authoritative source, the
awakening came. Neither Mr.. nor
Mrs. Mckinley, it turned out, had
ever visited the school attended by
the little girl and the latter, when
taxed with the deception, tearfully
confessed that her whole story was
a lie; that she had bought the bou-
quet with her fathers money, had
given costly presents to some of her
playmates. and had spent the rest
of the money on articles which she
had stored with a neighbor-Pictor-

the efforts of n. Holman, president

cotton in Oklahoma was opened in

matte sprinklers for fire protection
and has a capacity of 5000 bales.
The first bale of cotton coming to

on the certificate. The storage charg-

and 15c a bale a month thereafter

ing apparatus is very noticeable if you
are little out of condition.
All air is germ laden. Most germs
are beneficial, but unfortunately, the
air also contains germs that are detri-
mental and some that are positively
dangerous. If our vitality is what it
should be the worst germs cannot IN
jure us seriously.
Cold will not kill disease germs, heat
will not kill them until you get we'll up
toward the temperature of boiling wa
ter. The warmth of the human lungs
seems to be about right to encourage
their most rapid development, and un-
less they are expelled in large quaint
ties they are likely to increase in num-
bers sufficient to make trouble.
Pneumonia and consumption are
cured, il cured at all, by sleeping out
doors, or in the house with a window
wide open. When man feels eco
nomical enough to take the air from
inside the house to pass it through the
furnace, he is also careful enough to
keep all the doors and windows closed.
That is one of the strongest reasons
why furnace should not be fed with
interior air.
Steam heating and hot water heating
plants should always have in connec-
ton ventilating system. New houses
usually have flues for the purpose.
Some people will kill themselves in
any kind of house with any sort
of heating system; others will have
fresh air in spite Of difficulties.
This house will cost complete about
$4,000 possibly trife more. 1t will
be found very satisfactory design,
both as to outward appearance and in
terror arrangement.

out for cleaning. One objection to
cupboards is the difficulty OF keeping
them clean. but this arrangement
seems to solve that problem; still the
doors shut over them to keep out the
dust.
The building OF smaller houses has
made economy OF space necessary.
Architects have got busy with new in
ventions and new ideas, some of which
have taken with the public because
they mean greater comfort and con-
venience for the amount of money ex-
pended.
The front porch with the little boxed
in steps at the corner gives the house
an artistic appearance to an unusual
degree. There is something about the
pitch Of the porch roof, its size in
proportion to the house, and the neat
corners and pillars, that stamps the
whole house with an air of refinement.

There are many different kinds OF
sauces. some of which are named be-
low.
Mint sauce is the usual accompani-
ment to lamb, and Is easily and quick
ly made. Add three tablespoonfuls of
finely minced mint to two or powdered
sugar, then add a tablespoonful of boil
Ing hot vinegar and let stand an hour
before serving. The addition of few
drops of olive oil before serving is
liked by many.
Tripe Is an easily digested meat and
is especially good with onion sauce.
Boil pint of onions until tender in
boiling sailed water, drain and chop
fine. Melt two tablespoonfuls Of but
ter in pan, add two Of flour, and
when we'll blended add a pint of milk
Stir until boiling, add the onions,
more seasoning Of salt and pepper,
and more butter If needed, pour over
the tripe and serve hot.
Horseradlsh Sauce. - Horseradish
mixed with vinegar and sweet cream,
salt, and bit of mustard, makes a
nice sauce to serve with steak or fish.

preparing the tea table. The FIVE
o'clock tea may be a most delightful
affair, under tree or In a comfort
able living room; but when carried
to the extreme by OVERRIDING, it be-
comes burden and wearisome to the
flesh. Plain bread and butter with
a simple cake or two with a cup of
tea Is sufficient for the most fas-
tidious.
Pretty china and a pretty table, we'll
laid, are essentials and can be had by
those of modest means. 1t Is only
when one tries to do more than her
means allow that the Joy is taken
from the entertainment.
Sandwiches of various kinds are
relished by those who often do not
care for cakes and there are such
numbers Of kinds that one may be
original in the making Of even a sand
witch.
The fundamental thing in sandwich
making is to have the bread evenly
cut, nicely spread and filled with what
ever filling is used, 30 that there will
be daintiness about them which ap-
peals to the eye and gives promise of
a satisfying taste.
AS to the tea itself, it should be the
best 1t is possible to buy and kept
freshly made. The pot should be hot
and water boiling when the tea is
added, then allow 1t to stand FIVE min
utes to draw or steep and 1t is ready
to serve. Use teapot that is large
enough for the number served and
have 1t full. as 1t keeps hot much
longer.
Cream Scones.-Take two cupfuls of
flour, mix and sift we'll with four tea
spoonfuls Of baking powder, two tea
spoonfuls of sugar, half teaspoonful
Of salt, cut in four tablespoonfuls of
butter and add third of cupful of
cream and two well-beaten eggs; roll,
cut in diamonds, sprinkle with egg
and sugar and bake in hot oven.
