the "fiirlinfoens." This corresponds
to what We know as "panpipes" and

after their instruments, are as a rule

1t is said that the panpipe players ex-

Church Music.

Such is our nature. that even the
best things, and most worthy of our
esteem, do not always employ and de-
tain our thoughts in proportion to
their real value, unless they be set of
and greatened by some outward cir
cumstances, which are fitted to raise
admiration and surprise in the breasts
of those who hear or behold them.
And this good effect is wrought in US
by the power of sacred music. To 1t

and solemnity OF our public worship

OF supplicants as the sound OF the

courage, equally gives life, and vigor,

Bio Boiled Dinner.

The chefs in our big hotels may
think they prepare meals on a big
scale, but II is doubtful whether any
of them have ever equaled the feat
OF wholesale cookery achieved at the
little town OF Liss. in England. At a
barbecue held there not long ago an
OK was boiled-not roasted-whole
This is how the thing was done: A
large hole was dug In the ground and
lined with brick, inside OF which was
built a tank large enough to hold the
OK The carcass was then lowered
into the tank. having first been placed
in a case formed by heavy crossbars
to which chains were attached. Pull
leys from a scaffolding above were
used to raise and lower the OK Many
vegetables, such as carrots, onions.
cabbages and potatoes, were boiled
with the meat The boiling required
several hours.

not a stones throw from Liverpool

how few Londoners know Of London's
only smokeiess tavern. II was estab-
lished in 1852. The stranger who en-
tiers its doors is promptly served with
a pamphlet in which is set forth the
curious rules by which the establish
ment is bound. Rule one puts up
the bar against him who has drunk
unwisely and too well. Rule 2. No
person or party OF persons can be
served under any circumstances more

Ways TO Disguise Milk.

Many children dislike milk as soon
as they have passed their babyhood
days The food values 1t contains.
however. are very essential TO the
proper growth OF the child. Many
mothers are therefore at a loss for
ways in which to disguise the de-
spised milk, 80 as to make it palatabie.
Probably one Of the best ways is to
give the child a pure cocoa, made en-.
tirely with milk. Most children like
cereals, and these can be cooked In
milk instead OF water When served
with plenty of milk the child eats un.
knowingly a goodly quantity OF this
food beverage. Simple cream soups
will also prove a welcome addition to
the child's diet list.

Hunting Tire Blue Heron.

In big Swamp" the region known
as the Everglades in Florida, many
sections of which are still practically
UNEMPLOYED today, is found the rare
blue heron. The plumes of the blue
heron command high prices and are
extremely difficult TO secure. During
the breeding and mating season the
birds congregate at various points,
and as the principal tail plumes inter
fere with their nesting, they cast
them of. which gives the hunter his
chance In order to locate these
carefully hidden breeding places he
climbs a tree, and from the top
