The cellar, of course, canrka be thoroughly cleaned until the furnace fire is allowed to go out for the sea son, but it can be cleared of all rub bish, if rubbish has been allowed to accumulate there during the winter. The cellar should be the most orderly part of the house, partly because an accumulation of rubbish there in- ereases danger of fire and partly be- cause the air from the cellar risesf through the house, carrying with 1t dust or any other uncleanliness.
 See to it that all the chimneys are in good condition and that all fire places are ready for little extra work. The spring days. after the fur mace fire is put out. are the days when open fires are most in demand
 Remember that spring appetites crave fresh things. and that salads tempt when heavier foods repel Vege- table salads for luncheon are admir- able on spring days.
 If the spring days drag, begin to plan for summer vacations Send for eatalogs and pamphlets of hotel rates and take out some of your longing for summer in looking them over.

Why Bows on Left Side of Hats.

Why do men wear bows on the left side of their hats? A natter gives the following explanation:
 In the old days. when men were much in the open air and hats were an expensive article of attire, they used to tie cord round the crown and let the ends fall on the left side so that it could be grasped if a gust threat. ened to carry off their headgear. The reason the cords fell on the left side was that the left hand was more often free than the right hand. Later on the ends came to be tied in bow. and later still they became useless but the bow has remained, and it will probably remain till the event of the next deluge."

RICE SERVED WITH MEALS

Rice has great nutritive value, so when you can add it to meat you are not only reducing the cost of the dish, but you are maintaining, somewhat in- creasing, it's food value.
 Rice can be added to almost any sort of meat. Rice. plain boiled and drained as dry as possible, can be add ed to q chicken fricassee. It can also be made into croquettes to serve with chicken. and rice eroquettes may be served with lamb or mutton stew.
 Round steak can be cooked with rice In this way: Put round steak an inch and half thick in a greased casserole, and cover it with cupful of rice that has been soaked for an hour. Pour over this half can of tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Then add a quart of water. Cover and bake for two hours slowly, and then uncover and cook for 20 min utes longer.

BASED ON POPULAR LEGEND
Origin in Well-knoWn Sixteenth Century Story.

The story of the opera, Faust has it's origin in an old and popular legend. Johann Faustus was the name of an astrologer, soothsayer and charlatan, who was supposed to have lived in Germany in the early half of the six teenth century (from about 14S5 to about 1540l. and to have performed miracles with the aid of the devil who, according to the legend, carried him away at the end of his life. Philip Begardi, a physician, mentions such a person in his Index Sanitatis" (1539) The various Faust tales first appeared
 in literature at the book fair at Frank fort -on-the-Main in 1887, as The His tory of Dr. Johann Faust" the story there told was that of the son of a peasant. who achieved distinction at the University of Wittenberg, but sought to deepen his knowledge by magic arts, and to that purpose sum- moned the devil, Mephistopheles, to be his servant for A years, when he was to be taken, in turn, by the devil;
 the compact to that effect was sealed
 in Fausts blood; there followed a period of high living and indulgence, mingled with much philosophical and
 theological discussion and visions of the spirit world, but Faust became re- morseful and turned for consolation to mathematics; afterward he visited
 Hades and the stars. played magic pranks, conjured up Helen of Troy from the neither world, and became the father of "soothsaying child"
 The tale was rendered into metrieal English in 1887 and German rhymes in 1888. In 1899 it appeared with an
 elaborate commentary by G. R. Wid- man, and furnished apparently the main source of subsequent versions.
 The first French version was dated l 1889, the Dutch 1592. Marlowe fol- lowed the legend closely in his "Trag- l edy of Doctor Faustus,' which was | apparently written in 1889. It's melo- dramatic and spectacular elements kept it popular. and 1t became pop ular. not to say vulgar. spectacle" and

There were, however, many attempts made to attain through the legend a dramatic treatment of the deep philosophical problems of mans existence; of Goethe's Faust" it is, of course, unnecessary to speak. Gounods opera, which takes up only one feature of the Faust legend, did not, on its appearance, March 19, 1858, meet with popular approval, but has since come to be regarded as the com. poser's masterpiece.
