bia tells how 10 can beans. In prep.
sration, wash and string the beans as
n for immediate. use. Next, pack
them In Jars as tightly as possible,
covering with water and adding b
teaspoonful OF salt TO each quart.
Put on the rubbers and tops, adjust.

The best jar for this purpose Is one

Floral Tributes to a Famous Writer
BY DIR. T.. J. EDWARDS.

In August, 1871, I visited Westminster
Abbey in London and found my way to
the so-called Poets Corner. ] wanted to
see the grave of Charles Dickens, and l
wondered il / could find it easily. espe-
cially in view of the fact that had been
told that superimposed over the, grave
was flat stone upon which was inscrib-
ed Dickens name and nothing else.
1t was not necessary to make any
search. however. The most conspicuous
object in Poets Corner was beautiful
bunch OF flowers which APPARENTLY lay
upon the floor. Surrounding it were many
small blossoms indicating that some one
had come to place flowers upon tn"
grave. felt sure that this WAS the grave
of Dickens. and in a moment found that
my surmiSe was correct AS ! was G"-
ing out Of the Abh.y. on" OF the guides
IL that is the name of the officer. told
me that children came every day and
often persons of mature years, many
women among them. who brought flowers
to place upon Dickens grave
Many years later. ! happened 70 men

had established cordial friendship with
him although the intimacy was not so
close as was that between Mr.. Goodwin
and Thackeray.
MIR. Goodwin said: 1T was perfectly
natural that Dickens grave should be
strewn with flowers by children and by
persons Of mature years. for whatever
criticism may he made or his literary
workmanship he achieved something
which many of the finest of writers never
gained. and that is the friendship Of all
classes of readers. That is also true Of
the United states. and ] can tell voU
something which fits in perfectly with
your account OF the strewinS Of flowers
over Dickens grave.
When Dickens was in New York on
his second visit, he was a guest AT the
Westminster Hotel. That was also the
