Knew His Customer.

An old Englishman, James Scott by
name, travelled about on business I'M
til he was nearly eighty years of age.
He became celebrated for his punctu-
atty and methodical habits. Upon one
occasion a gentleman stopped at an
inn much frequented by Mr.. Scott and
saw fine fowl cooking.
THAT is very good" said the hungry
guest. you may serve that for my
dinner"
you cannot have that, sir" replied
the landlord. THAT is being cooked
for Mr. Scott, the traveller"
Il know Mr.. Scott very we'll" said
the gentleman rs he stopping here?"
ooh, no, sir" answered the landlord
But six months ago he ordered fowl
to be ready for him at precisely two
o'clock today, and we are expecting
him every minute"

BEST METHOD FOR CABBAGE
Culinary Expert Tells How the veae
table May Be Served Up In Ap-
petizing Way.

Cabbage, and other vegetables that
form into heads, should be soaked In
cold water, heads down, to which
salt or a little vinegar has been added.
This will drive out worms or insects II
any are in hiding among the leaves.
Half an hour is long enough to allow
the vegetables to remain in the water
Take one-ialf or one-Quarter OF the
head of cabbage, according to quantity
required, and shave it down fine, as Tor
glaw; put 1t in very cold water, enough
to just cover 1t, and let 1t stand until
crisp; pour off this water and add
fresh cold water to barely cover 1t ana
place over the fire; cover and bring
quickly to boiling; then remove cover
and boil rapidly until 1t begins to look
clear; pour of the water, season TO
taste with salt and pepper, add butter
generously, tablespoonful to two cup
fuls of cabbage, and turn into heated
dish and serve. Hot cream, cream
sauce, sour cream sauce or cheese
sauce may be served with it, but 1t Is
very delicate and pleasing to the taste
served plain with butter and season
ing. If any is left over chill thorough
ly and serve as a salad with green
peppers or leftover string beans or
peas or fresh tomatoes, using French
dressing.-Lida Ames Willis.

trees are bending earthward with their
burdens of luscious fruits, from which
the tables are to be plentifully sup
Piled; all the fresh eggs and cream
boarders wish for. 1t will be sure to
be snapped up at once. Apply with
out delay"
The cautious business man suggests
it might be well to look the place
over. Wifey poohpoos the advice.
"Oh, JIM" she cries enthusiastically
"Iu be so well built up in month
you won't know mel"
Arrangements are made by letter
and hubby's check is duly forwarded
If she could but follow that letter,
look in upon the scene at that board
ing house, she would have been a
sadder, but wiser woman. The farm
er's wife, daughters, sisters, cousins
and aunts are busy making ready for
the advent of the summer boarders
The shaky old beds are having new
nails and bolts added TO keep them to-
gether; likewise the old bureau, ward
robe and washstand Mattresses are
treated to new coverings, as are pill
lows and holsters. Carpets are patched
and turned. A few cheap pictures are
hung over the damp spots on the wall.
The curtains are darned, hung and
Topped so carefully that the fact they
are not mates will not be discovered
until later on
The icehouse, which did duty in win
ter, is duly stocked with a fresh sup
ply Of canned fruits and vegetables
from the luscious peach to the humble
beet. Condensed milk is not wanting,
nor crates of packed eggs.
All look spick and span when the
summer ooarders arrive. They see
with delight the fruits growing; farm
hands gathering up ripe corn, succu-
lent tomatoes, cucumbers and the
mealy Burbank potatoes. Viands on
the table don't taste half as good
as they anticipated; but imagination
goes great way with the summer
boarder If they got up at the cock
crow, they might see wagon loads of
truck carted off to be shipped daily
to the city.
Hubby, who remained in the city,
gets all the fresh fruits and vege-
tables. Wifey, who was on the farm,
comes back to him as thin as though
she had taken a reduction cure. OF
course, place as she chose, might be
one inferior boarding place in thou
sand The great majority live up to
what they promise. WHEY finds it's
a mistake to run away from home for
comforts and luxuries of the season.

More than 44,000,000 Red Cross
Christmas seals we're sold last Ilecem-
Der, according to a report issued by
the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis and the American Red Cross. In
this way $4,000 is netted for anti

1t is hoped that this year the So
100000 mark win be reached. The
seal design for 1914 has been selected
and orders for the printing of 100000
900 seals have been placed. Plans for
the organization of a larger sale this
year than ever before have been per
fected.
New York led the country last year
with sale of over 1e,5G0.000 seals,
or one for each man, woman and
child in the state. OF this number,
more than 6,S25,000 were sold outside

next with sale of 3,125,000. Ohio was
third with 100000. Wisconsin fourth,
2,7O0.0O0, and Illinois fifth with $780,.
600. Hawaii sold the most seals per

A twelve-year dispute has just been
settled in a little village on the
Holderness England coast name
throne. The dispute was over a
clock for the church tower, for which
40 poor parishioners subscribed. The
clock was not placed in position be-
cause the representative of the SUBJ
scribers were unwilling to let the
clock pass under the control of the
vicar. The vicar declared that the
clock was not erected because the
farmers did not want the laborers to
know the time to knock off work.
After the lapse of all these years the
clock has now arrived in the village
and will be installed shortly

SWISS COWS FEAR NO ONE
A Traveller Up In the Mountains
Wrote Cards on the Back of
One Bovine.

A traveller in Switzerland cannot fail
to be impressed by the kindness with
which the people treat their cattle
a kindness and consideration which
extends to all animal life, wild or do
mesticated.
One beautiful August morning when
up in the Scheidegg pass l strolled out
to a pasture to get a better view of
the mountains. Some kind soul had
placed a good bench at point of van
tage, and | sat down to enjoy the
beauty of the Jungfrau and the whole
wonderful chain of which this famous
peak is a part.
1t was one OF those high mountain
pastures in which the grass lasts only
seven or eight weeks in the hottest
part of the summer. had noticed a
herd of cattle feeding Xnear by, but
paid no attention to lem. After a
time began writin5 Messages on post

1 assured her that Teddy was never
more delighted" even in campaign
time, and that also l = happy to
make her acquaintance. As rested my
arm upon her full, clean neck and
patted her head, bull came along,
stopped close by, and gazed kindly at
me. IGould not understand his Ian
guage, but / am sure he was saying
something like this: I'm just as glad
sec you as she is; it is good we
can ell be happy together this fine
day, and by the way Coming up
closer if it is not intruding, I'd like
to have my nose patted, too"
Then came another COW, and others,
till finally one COW stopped directly in
front of me, so close mat her side
rubbed against my knees and I was
unable to continue my writing.
Thereupon 1 stood up and wrote three
or four postal cards on her back, US
ing it as a sort of writing desk. She
took it all in good part, chewed her
cud contentedly and never budged.
It was evident that that herd of cat
tie did not know what it was to be
kicked or dubbed. Brutality was I'M
known to them, even brutal words. A
human being was a friend; they knew
no strangers.
Swiss children from their earliest
years are taught to be kind to all ami
mails. It is a part of the national habit
of thought. The Swiss are the best
dairymen in the world. They know
that it breeds not only better cattle,
but it breeds better people.-Judson
King, in Farm and Ffreside.

DARWIN ON MANS ORIGIN
ly Prevalent Set Right BY Eng
lish Curator.

1T is popularity supposed, even to-
day, that, according to Darwin, man
is a descendant of the monkeys"
writes w. P. Pycraft, curator of the
British museum, in the Illustrated Lon
don News. But let those who feel
hurt at the idea console themselves
with the fact that he said nothing OF
the kind. What he did say was that
man and the apes were descendants
of a common stock, which is very
different thing.
Huxley, years ago, endeavored to
set this misconception right in his de
lightful Mans Place in Nature yet so
deeply rooted was the original idea
that he failed to reassure the nonsci-
entific readers of his time. His son
relates how his father, near the end
d his life, saw Carlyle walking slowly
and alone down the opposite side OF
the street and, touched by his solitary
appearance, crossed over and spoke
tC him. The old man looked at him,
and merely remarking, You're Huxley,
all descended from monkeys?' went on
his way, giving Huxley no chance or
explaining matters or of protesting
against the Imaginary sin of his old
friend being thrust upon his shoulders
A more careful, less prejudiced, per-
usal of what Huxley said would have
set the old mans mind at rest and
spared him this unmannerly response
to a kindly greeting.
Huxley was the first, in that won
derful book, to marshal the facts OF
mans descent in detail. He pointed
out the striking resemblances between
man and the higher apes, and espe-
cially the chimpanzee and the gorilla.
And the mass of facts which has ac-
cumulated since he wrote has con-
firmed that comparison in every de-
foil

SATURDAY HALF-HOLIDAY FOR
WORKING GIRLS.

oh, but to breathe the breath
OF the cowslip and primrose sweet,
WITH the sky above my head
And the grass beneath my Feet!
For only one short hour
To feel as 1 used to feel
Before knew the woes of want
And the walk that costs a IaeaI!"
The working girls of New York, and
those all over the country, are jubi-
liant over new plan which has just
gone into effect for their benefit.
Girls are holding jollification meetings
everywhere; sending avote Of thanks
to their employers who have extend
ed to them half-holiday every Sat
urday afternoon during the summer
months.
What excursions some of them are
planning into the sweet, cool, green
country. All the village inns have
their Saturday night dances. Work
ing girls have read of them, sighed
for them, never dreaming they could
participate in them.
But now they can get their best
bibs and fuckers ready, put them into
a handbag, take the afternoon train
that goes through their place, or a
trolley car. In less than an hour
they'll be whirled to their destination.
Usually two or more girls club togeth-
er on these trips, all sharing one room
and cutting down expenses. The old
fashioned dinner puts new hearts in
them There's time for stroll be-
fore the dancing begins. My! what a
swath those city girls cut. The vii
lage beaus stare at them at first. then
grow holder with admiration.
That evening is a gala one in the
lives of the girls. The young folks
who have gathered are all like one
famiiy-bent upon having a good time.
Eleven o'clock is considered late for
the dancing, though they often do
stretch il out three-quarters of an
hour longer. until the fiddler and
