Natures Reforestinu,

The great eruptions OF January, 1911,
destroyed practically the whole plant
cover of the Taal volcano, which lies
in the middle of Lake Bombon, Luzon.
AS residence on the island has since
been prohibited by the authorities, the
process of revegetation has been on
trolled by natural agencies alone, and
a study of it presents the same inter
est as that of the like process on Krak.
atoa, concerning which so much has
been written. According to the inves-
legations of F. c. Gates, by April, 1914,
179 species of vascular plants were
growing on the island, 1873 being dico-
~tyledons. Ferns and their allies,
MOSES, lichens and algae were all
poorly represented. Water-borne
plants appeared first, fringing the
shore; then grasses, of which the seeds
were borne by the wind, and when
these had attracted bird visitors the
seeds of bushes, low trees and climb
ing plants were imported.

then the old traditions had largely
ceased, and the stories OF the lives of
the first settlers had been forgotten.
His friendship with the Soutars had
come about through q sister of Mrs
Soutar, a maiden lady, who had been
a constant visitor at his home when
his wife lived. But she had died al
most at the same time as Mrs. Hicks,
and no link remained between the
families.
A few nights before her death the
old called the doctor to her
bedside. Brokenly she told him that
she had no one else in whom to con-
fide. Then she told him her story.
It concerned her dead sister. Years
before, in girlhood, she had suffered
a great wrong. She had gone away;
her child, a boy, had been born in a
remote place and left in the founding
hospital there. Afterward she had
him removed to a town nearer,
where, in the guise of an interested
visitor, she could see him occasional
ly. But the boy had been adopted,
and, in accordance with the rules of
the institution, she was refused all
information as to his whereabouts.

There is a little money-a private
hoard, devoted to this purpose. And

follow her"
Hicks promised, and the dying wom-
an closed her eyes in peace. She
passed away a few days later, happy
in Hicks assurance that he had al
ready traced the child.
It was the day after the funeral
that Louise sent for the doctor and
told him the identical story.

night before m. mothers death. She
was rambling, then, but l picked up
enough of the story to understand,
and to realize your chivalrous nature

up an uncouth, illiterate man. That
task must be mine"
The doctor laid his hand on her
shoulder.

The last execution in Rhode Island
took place in 1915. One John Gordon
was hanged for the murder of Amasa
Sprague on December 81, 1S43. The

ment was sat on foot to abolish cap
ital punishment. Thomas r. Hazard
(Shepherd Tom) was the leader in
this movement. His labors and writ
ing we're finally successful, and on Feb

passed the act abolishing hanging in

establish hanging for the crime Of
murder. But the sentiment of Rhode

The Doctors
Sacrifice
BY
GERALD RALPH AMOS
tCopyrighA, 1915. by w. G. Chapman.)

Copyright, 1915, by w. G. Chapman.)
Everybody wondered when middle
aged Doctor Hicks, a widower with a
small son, became engaged to the rich
Miss Louise Soutar of the Manor. But
the story of the breaking off Of their
engagement was less of a wonder and
more of q scandal. Some blamed the
Soutars and ONE the doctor, but all
were agreed that he was a fool to
let people know so much about his
business.
The diphtheria epidemic in the vii
lage was not serious, but there were
more than a score Of cases. Mrs.
Soutar's son Leonard, Louise's broth
er, was one of the first, and the doc
tors son Frank one of the last. And
there wasn't any antitoXin. The state
board, which supplied it, had been
held up by some sort Of crank injunc'
ton. However, antitoxin was not
considered necessary at first. The
cases were doing very well without it.
All except that of Leonard Soutar
and Frank Hicks. The doctor want
ed antitoxin badly, and he had just
enough for one injection in his tube.
People got to know that, and that was
the doctors cardinal error.
Mrs. Soutar and her daughter were
panic-stricken over the possibility of
Leonard's death. When the doctor an'
nounced that he intended to use the
remedy only as a last resource, for
whichever of the two boys needed it
most. the situation became critical,
At Leonard's bedside Mrs. Soutar
went down on her knees.
He's dying, doctor. My boys

his life"
The doctor raised his head. My
son is worse he answered.
But you must save Leonard, l tell
you. He is all have-my only son,

HINTS FOR THE COOK
SOME BETTER WAYS OF DOING
KITCHEN WORK.
How To Do Away With Lumps In
Making coeoa--To Keep Rice and
Macaronl From Becoming
Mushy.

Instead of mixing cocoa with boiling
water to dissolve it before putting it
into the cocoa pot, try mixing the dry
cocoa with an equal amount of granu-
lated sugar and then pouring it into
the boiling water in the pot, stirring
all the while. This does away with
the Jumps that usually have to be
fused over. and also a mussy cup.
The kettle should be given frequent
baths, else lime and other salts will
settle on the bottom. which may then
be dissolved off into the boiling water.
making 1t hard"
To heat water very quickly set a
broad. fiat saucepan over the fire and
cover to keep in steam.
A small uncovered board, about
the size Of a rolling board for pas
try. is invaluable for setting hot
dishes, pots. etc, upon. This preserves
the kitchen table top, and leaves room
on the stove for other things.
To prevent a roast from becoming
Fat soaked, set it upon a rack in the
roasting pan. But keep the surface
Of the roasting pan covered with fat
TO prevent it from burning. Fat is
better used here than water, as water
utterly changes the character of the
meat.
Cold meats may be attractively
served by removing first all gristle,
bones and skin and excess fat and
then cutting into thin strips or slivers.
Warm indirectly by pouring over the
meat any desired hot sauce.
To keep every grain of rice separate
and distinct, cook it in a pot of rapid
ly boiling water with the lid off.
Cooked in a double boiler with the lid
on makes the rice mushy. Macaroni
should be cooked same as rice.
To soften hard tissue of dried vege
tables like peas, beans and lentils,
cook in soft water. Otherwise add
baking soda to ordinary water in the
proportion of n teaspoonful to two
quarts of water.
II string beans are not freshly gath
cred from the garden, it will improve
them to prepare them for cooking
then let them stand for an hour or
more in cold water before applying
heat.
Dried apples, apricots, prunes, etc.
should be soaked overnight in cold
water before cooking, so as tc
plump" them and soften the dried
tissue.
Try caramel sugar" as a dressing
for mush, griddle cakes, sauces fol
buildings, icing for cakes, etc. This
is made by cooking the sugar in q
pan until it browns nicely or makes
caramel. This may be made into g
strip by the addition of water and
bottled for future use.

The Highland bagpipe is louder than

originally designed to cheer the clans

ten miles. The duke OF Sutherland

Cost of Livinq Hiqh in Teherar

In normal times Teheran, Persia, is
one of the most expensive cities in
the world in which to live, so states
Vice-Consul Ralph H. Bader. Coal sells
for $40 per ton; apples, $3.50 per bush
ell; cheese, 60 cents per pound; ham,
65 cents per pound; butter, so cents
per pound. These high prices are
largely caused by the lack of trans
portation facilities. Coal is trans
ported to Teheran from the nearest
mine "a distance of so miles) by dom
keys. Goods imported through the
Persian gulf are transported from Mo-
hamerah or Bushire to Teheran Ia dis
lance of 500 miles) by mules and cam
els, and are usually from six to twelve
weeks in transit. Goods imported
through Russia are subject to a heavy
transit duty and are transported
across the mountains from Enzeli to
Teheran "a distance of $50 miles) by

WAH Notifications the wealthy
WW city of Antwerp is like a
bulls-eye of old gold in the
midst of a ringed target. The
successive and extending arcs of mod
ern and obsolete fortresses (Ant-
werp is not completely encircled)
have almost traced the history of de-
fensive warfare. The Antwerp forts
have gradually been pushed outward
from the site of the ancient city
stormed by the Mortimer in the ninth
century to the outer line of Lierre, De
Kessel, De Ertbrand and many others,
held to be impregnable until the au-
tumn of 1914. This line of forts, with
the military bikes upon the languid
River Scheldt, has guarded for some
years the most important arsenal of
Belgium, as well as what was consid-
cred the chief city of refuge for the
Belgian army.
But Antwerp is far more than a
strategic point. The pistol aimed at
England" is not a weapon alone. Ant
werp at the outbreak of the war was
n of the most important %seaports
in Europe. 1t formed one of the chief
outlets for German and Belgian COM
merce. Not only is it close enough to
the British Isles for its possession by
an enemy to menace England, but it's
vast docks, begun by Napoleon, who
devoted 100000 francs to the pur-
pose, have an area of more than six
hundred acres, and in all of their ia
cilities are the most modern in the
world. The shipping of this city,
counting export and import bottoms
separately, has exceeded 10000, 900
tons a year, while Antwerp's annual
imports have run in excess of $780,
900, 900.
The city has been the home of dia.
mond cutters and lace makers, of gold
and silver Merchants, of cigarmakers
and carpet manufacturers-whose
goods showed so fine a quality that
for centuries they were shipped to
Persia, the home of rug weaving, as
well as to Arabia and India-of com
mercial magnates and ship owners
whose wealth at one time was a by
word in all of the civilized world, and
of various guilds and trades that are
no longer in existence. Above all, II
has boen the home of artists, and
many OF the works of the old masters
have been treasured in the Royal mu
scum. Van Dyck, Jordaens, Rubens
Quentin Matsys, the Teniers, father
and son, Cornelius de Vos and Seghers
are among the many names of artists
on the roll of Antwerp's residents.
Cathedral and Its Pictures.
The city of Antwerp is one of the
most interesting not only in Belgium
but in the entire world. 1t has beer
reduced by fire and sword on many oc
casions, but in spite of its various ca
lamities there have been preserved
