The following is reprinted from the Jasper Courier
of Jan. 1879
IT'S midnigh s. holy hour-and silence now
is broodng ike gentle spirit Ger
The still and pulseess world Hank! on the winds
The bells deep tones swelling It's the knell
Of the departed year. No funeral train
Is sweeping past yet on the ST. cam and wood,
With melancholy light. the moon-beams rest
Like pale, spotess shroud the air is stirred
AS by mourners SIGH md on yon cloud
That floats so still and placidy through heaven
The spirits Of the seasons seem to stand,-
Young Spring. bright Summers, Autumn s solemn form
And Winter with It's as ed locks.-and breathe,
In mournfu cadences that come abroad
Like the far wind.barps wild and touching wall,
melancholy dirge Ger the dead year.
Gone from the earth forever. It's time
For memory and for tears. Within the deep
Still chambers of the heart, spectre dim
Whose tones are like the wizards voice Of Time
Heard from the tomb of ages, points rs cold
And solemn finger to the beautiful
And holy visions that have passed away.
And left no shadow of their loneliness
On the dead waste of life That spectre lifts
The coffin lid of Hope, and Joy, and Love.
And bending mournfully above the pale,
Sweet forms. that slumber there scaters dead flower
er what has passed to nothingness. The year
Has gone and with it, many glorious throng
Of happy dreams. It's mark is on each brow.
It's shadows in each heart, In its swift course,
1t waved it's sceptre Ger the beautiful
And they not 1t laid it's palid hand
Upon the strong man, land the hauty form
Is fallen, and the flashing eye is dim.
1t trod the hall Of revelry, where thronged
The bright and joyous, and the fearful wall
Of stricken ones is heard where erst the song
And reckless shout resounded.

YEAST FOR THE QUICK BREAD
Its Proper Preparation Has Much to
Do With the Success Of the
Baking.

Two hour bread is mixed, kneaded,
raised, and baked In two hours. But
first there is yeast to make for 1t.
To make yeast for the two-hour bread,
boil six potatoes until soft. Take out,
mash them, and add them to the wa
ter (there should be one quart of this)
with four tablespoonfuls of sugar, two
tablespoonful of salt, two tablespoon
fuls of shortening, either lard or but
ter, and set all aside until lukewarm.
Add, then, half a cake of yeast which
has been dissolved in half a pint of
lukewarm water; stir in half a cupful
Of -four and let the yeast stand 36
hours. Use one and a half cupfuls Of
this liquid for each loaf and Just
enough -four to keep the dough from
sticking to the board. Stir in with a
spoon, then knead on the breadboard
for 20 minutes and shape into loaves.
Let these rise again until they are
the size you wish the loaves to be, put
them into the pan, and bake 80 or 40
minutes.

President Nudge estimated that the

steady increase in taxes and a

GO MAD UNDER FIRE
Soldiers Driven Insane by Big
German Guns.
Many Wards In British Hospital at
Netley Filled With Men Whose
Minds Were Shattered in
the Trenches.

Southampton, Eng.-1nsanity and
nervous prostration are claiming large
numbers of the allies who have lain
for weeks under German fire in the
trenches about Ypres. The insanity
wards in the big government hospital
at Netley are filled to overlooking and
all the hospitals in the south of Eng
land have many patients who suffered
absolute nervous collapse and have
been sent back to England for treat
ment.
Most of the cases show decided i'm
provement as soon as the men get into
new surroundings. Many Of the pa
tients suffering with nervous Attic
tions, who declared when they left
Belgium that they could never endure
further service under the fire of heavy
guns, clamor to return to the field of
action as soon as they get a grasp on
their nerves.
An amazing number of invalided SOL
diers eve have been touched by a
bullet or a shell and show no physical
signs of disability. Some of the most
desperate cases are men who were
terribly shocked by shells which ex-
ploded lear them. One sergeant, a
boy of eighteen, who recently left Net
ley for a trip to the home of relatives
in Manchester, was hurled through the
air for fifty feet by the force of an
exploding she'll, not a fragment of
which touched him. Both of his a
drums were broken and he was uncon-
scious for several days. His brain was
so affected that he was unable to see
anything for weeks in case he became
the least excited.
When he left the Netley hospital he
still walked somewhat u~nsteadily and
complained that dark spots frequently
appeared before his eyes. Physicians
get such patients away from hospitals
as speedily as possible, so that they
may be more free from military sur
~roundings and reminded less fire.
quently Of their experiences in the
field.
AS is the case In nearly all military
action, soldiers on rare occasions are
found shooting at their own hands and
feet, or exposing their arms and hands
to the fire Of the enemy that they may
suffer wounds which will relieve them
from service in the trenches. This is
attributed, in many cases, to shattered
nerves, although there are occasional
courts-martial in cases where there
Is a to believe that cowardice in
spired such action. In engagements
where the fighting is at close range
it is a simple matter for a soldier to
expose his hand or arm and catch a
bullet from the enemy's trenches.
Bad teeth are playing havoc with
the English troops exposed to cold and
dampness in the trenches. Many den
lists have been sent to the front to
treat defective teeth which have
caused neuralgia and disabled men
otherwise sound.

USE FOR LEFTOVER TURKEY
Probably There Is No Better Way
Than by Converting It Into a
Salad.

Generally there is quite O bit OF the
turkey left over, not enough perhaps
for a full meal again but quite sufi-
Client for ar excellent salad for an eve
ming function, high tea or a course
luncheon. If the white turkey meat
does run short it is an easy matter to
supplement it with some of the dark
meat or even roast veal or fresh pork
and no n will be the wiser. Cut the
meat into dice, then measure and al
low an equal quantity of celery, cut
in fairly good-sized pieces. If you have
any walnuts, butternuts or almonds,
cook them in a little stock or boiling
sailed water for twenty minutes, then
chop fine. At serving time mix to-
gether the turkey or other meat, nuts
and celery and allow to each quart Of

quarter t%easpoonful of paprika, a tea

more mayonnaise and serve. ! pretty
garnish for this is the stuffed olives or
bits of the sweet red peppers that
come in cans. Chicken salad is made
in the same way. A few spoonfuls of
the stock in which the chicken has
been boiled, makes a richer salad.

Lamb Souff1e.

Melt one tablespoonful butter, add
one-half tablespoonful flour and stir
until well blended; then pour on
gradually, while stirring constantly,
one cupful of milk. Bring to the boil
ing point, add one-quarter cupful of
soft stale bread crumbs, one-half tea
spoonful salt, one-quarter ~teaspoonful
celery salt, few grains of pepper and a
few drops of onion juice. Remove
from the range, add one cupful finely
chopped cold cooked lamb, yolks of
two eggs, beaten until thick and lem
on-colored; then cut and fold in the
whites of two eggs, beaten stiff and
dry. Turn into a buttered baking
dish and bake 80 minutes in a moder-
ate oven. Serve with tomato sauce.
Beef, veal or chicken may be used in
stead of lamb. This dish is easily
prepared and a splendid way to use
leftovers.
