 Confusion in Ballots.
 There was some confusion among the voters during the early hours of Dalloting at the town hall Monday by reason of the fact that the official ballots for the vote on the consti- tutiona1 amendment relative to nlile- age for members of the general as- sembly were similar to the license ball. lots in that they bore the words sYes'' or 4No" and the inscription "Ofncial Ballot" on the reverse side. They were not of the same color, however. Never theless some voters made the mistake of using the constitutional amend ment ballots in the license envelopes. The ideal weather helped swell the vote, for it allowed many old and in- firm persons and others in poor health to safely make the journey to the polls. Over 500 votes had been cast at li.So, when the polls had been open was taken in the booths by many vot- CTS it was then evident that a great many split tickets were being voted this being chiefly due to a desire to help fayorite candidates for select men. they being the center of the vot- I ing contests of the day.

TAKE TIME WITH ASPARAGUS
Prepared Hastily or CareIess|y a Great
Part of Its Finer Flavor WIZ
Be Lost

The very best method Of boiling aS'
paragus is first to wash, scrape anu .io
into a bundle, and then plunge tne
stalks into a vessel of boiling wafer al'
lowing tbe tins to come above the
wafer The steam will be sufficient 10
cook these tender parts. Serve OH
toast or with melted butter. In Eu-
rome a little butter is placed on the
edge of the plate and the hot head OF
asparagus dipped into it before eatlhs'
but in this country white sauce usu-
ally accompanies this dish.
An economical way, and when there
are children a more convenient way
also, is to cut the tender parts ih'o
short lengths and cook in the least
quantity of sailed water possible II
should be done in about ~ minutes,
when it is taken from the liquor ana
the latter thickened with little flour
butter and cream. The asparagus is
laid upon toasted bread and the sauce
poured over In this way one gets the
full benefit of every bit of the vege-
table while the tougher portions can
be made into a nice asparagus soup.
To make this, cook the stalks IN
sailed water until tender and press
through sieve. Put two cuptuls OF
milk over the fire or milk and white
stock mixed. When it boils, stir in
two tablespoonfuls each of flour and
butter thoroughly rubbed together, by
pouring the scalding milk over gradu-
ally. Put over the fire, and If found
too thick when brought to a boil thin
with hot milk. Add the asparagus
pulp. Season with salt and pepper,
then strain into the soup tureen.
Asparagus omelet makes delicious
dish for either luncheon or breakfast,
and is a good way of using up cold as
paragus that is insufficient for making
into a salad.
Make a plain omelet with three
eggs, three tablespoonful of hot wa.
ter and salt and pepper to taste. Add
the water and the seasoning to the
yolks and beat in the whites at the
last. Pour into hot buttered frying
pan and cook slowly. To test whether
an omelet is cooked sufficiently press
with the finger. If it comes away
clean the omelet is ready to serve.
Turn upon a hot platter and have
ready the asparagus heated in a little
cream or thickened milk. Fold over
and serve garnished with parsley.

children wailing. A great darkness
settled over the land; that darkest
hour which comes just before the
dawn. Then came the first gray streak
across the eastern sky, and The Girl
saw.
Along the barren shore ran little
children-numberng many, many
thousands. They were naked, and a
great brawny hand scourged them as
they ran until the beach was crimson
with the blood which dripped from
their little nude bodies, and the ali,

mercy.
The Girl covered her eyes with her
hands to shut out the vision, but the
