their contributions give them some kind

Thu Waddino Cake.

The old time custom of hiding a
thimble. a penny and a ring In the
wedding cake is still followed. After
the cake is baked. but before the icing
is added, Sits are cut in IL In a
plain gold ring is placed, in another a
tiny gold thimble and In the third a
piece of silver money. a dime being
the usual selection. Then the thick
icing with its elaborate decorations
overs the whole. In slicing the cake
the bride cuts clear through from top
to bottom. If she is wise she will slip
the knife a little to one side when 1t
touches one of the little articles so the
whole slice can be placed upon a plate
without showing Its precious secret.
Tradition has 1t that the maid who
gets the ring is to be the next to wed,
she that draws the thimble Is doomed
to spinsterbood. while she t whom the
piece OF money falls is to revel In
wealth all her days.
The wedding cake is usually a big
fruit cake, but often a fine white cake
is preferred. 1t should be made and

When Remembrance Fails.

A weakness which many of us share
Is that of forgetting faces Of people
we have met. or Of being unable to ft
the right name to the right face when
the need comes suddenly. 1t is a hap
by gift to be able to recall both names
and faces. and he who has 1t is excep-
%tionally fortunate. Few things 1atter
a person more than being remembered.
We forgive the frank person who says:
"Your face is familiar, but | can't just
place you.s because we have all been
In the same ~predicament ourselves.
even If we have not admitted It; yet
do feel complimented more to be cali

There are people we meet whom we
feel we ought to know. but we cannot
remember their names. What can we
do? Ii is a dreadful moment. Muster

best to proceed as if we did know.

hope our uncertainty may not be sus-
pected. Fortunately we seldom learn

PERSISTENT BEAVERS.
a Battle Of Wits Between the Animals
and the Engineers.


When the Grand Trunk railway ran
its line across a swamp in a game pre-.
serve on the line of the Alberta Rock
les there was Il wonderfully construct.
ed beaver dam holding the water back
to flood the swamp
This in the eyes of the game warden
was pure waste. and he ordered the
engineers to prevent it without harm
ing the beavers. or course the dam
could have been blown up with dyna.
mite. but that would have meant the
death Of most of the little animals and
death very likely in great pain at that.
So the engineers cut an opening in
the dam. The mud had become almost
as hard as concrete. and it took the
men three days to get the water
ming out steadily. Then. thinking theil
troubles with the industrious little fel
lows over. they started work on the
railway through the swamp.
Soon the water began to rise. and
the work was stopped In a few hours
The engineers made all haste to the
dam and found the animals had repair
ed the cut and made it tight again.
A fresh cut was made. but after the
men had gone the beavers busted
themselves and made it stronger than
ever. Work was again stopped on the
railroad within a few hours.
Then a deep hole vas made in the
earth far under the dam. The beavers
were much puzzled. Never before had
they seen water go down into the
ground and come up far away. But
they lent their whole attention to the
problem. and the work ON the railroad
was again stopped as a consequences
and the foundations soaked with wa.
ter.
Then followed an engagement of
wits between the beavers and the en-
gineers. But every time the men
found a way to cut the dam in a new
place the beavers found a way tc
stop it.
The road was finally constructed by
working a few hours at a time, and the
loss to the contractors amounted to
more than So. 000.-Detroit Free Press.

DEFIED THE BRAHMANS.
An East Indian Prince Who Did Not
Fear Losing Caste.


Mr.. Coningsby Dawson. the well
known English writer. tells the follow
ing anecdote of the East Indian prince
Sir Pertab Singh:
A young English lieutenant had died
of cholera in his palace. The boy was
the son Of an English friend. When
the body had to be carried out to be
placed on Il gun carriage Sir Pertab
Singh went forward to lift it up. Be.
fore he touched it he was stopped by
some English officers. They reminded
him that. by his religion. We're he to
touch the dead he would lose all his
caste and perhaps. despite his wealth,
never be able to buy it back. They adj.
vised him to send for the sweepers,
who are ~outcasts. In spite of their
protests he picked up the body and
carried it down the palace steps to
the gun carriage.
A gasp went up at the sight. Every
n of his subjects knew what he had
done. The next morning, when he
rose. 500 Brahman priests were wait
ing in the courtyard. He came out, q
proud figure. to face them. He knew
what they had come for-to make him
the lowest thing in India, a man with.
out caste. He asked them what was
their errand, and they stad him. They
had come to make him of as little ac.
count as the humblest sweeper in his
palace.

my of you have ever dreamed Of, and
you can't take 1t from me; you're wei

same caste as the dead son of my
friend-the caste of a soldier"
With that he walked back into his
palace, and the Brahman priests went
away, one by one, ashamed ard puz'
