INITIATE PRECIOUS GEMS.
Zircons Are often Used to Deceive
Persons on JeWeIry.

Nature is often copied with con-
spicuous success by those engaged in
the imitation of precious jewels. Z.I.
cons are composed of silica and gi-
coma. Their luster is deceptive, a
means having been discovered of en-
tracing the color, thus leaving them
diamonds to all appearances, although
their fastness promptly proclaims t..
self when put to a test. Precious
stones are often dyed with such
thorouehness and cleverness thai, il

In Oberstein, Germany, the sole IN.
dustry is the manufacture of imitation
jnwelry and the dyeing of chalcedOny
and other stones. The ONYX, carncli-

riched in color by immersion in the

RECIPES FOR DINNER

Stuffed Ham-Pour boiling water
over ham and set aside until cool
enough to handle. With coarse
bristled brush clean thoroughly, rinse
in cold water and put on to boil. Use
large kettle with sufficient water to
cover ham. Bring to boiling point,
then simmer steadily one-half hour
to keep water just at boiling point
and not above that. Turn ham over
once or twice and, when done, take
out and put in large bakingpan. Dip
hands in cold water and pull off the
skin as you would peel off an orange,
then put the lean side down and set
in moderate oven to bake for an hour.
This brings out all superfiuous grease.
When removed from the stove, set
aside until ham is cold, then it is
ready to stuff.
Prepare stuffng in the following
manner: One pint bread crumbs, two
hard boiled eggs, little mace or
thyme, one tablespoon butter, one-
half cup fat meat, black and red pep
per, salt to taste. With sharp
knife make incisions in ham as deep
as possible and fill with the stuffing,
of course chopping the eggs and fat
meat as finely as possible. Into each
incision pour few drops of fruit
juice or cider. Over the whole sur
face spread paste made with the
yolk of one egg, little sugar, dash
of pepper, prepared mustard and
bread crumbs. Put in the oven until
thoroughly Drowned.
Caramel or Candied Sweet Pota-
toes-Select two or three large sweet
potatoes and boil them until fork
can be stuck into them with ease.
Remove from water and peel. 1t may
be necessary to hold potatoes on
fork to be able to handle, for few
objects in the world are hotter than
a hot sweet potatoe. Slice jim length
wise slices, lay in baking dish and
dot with butter. Melt heaping cup
brown sugar in cup of water and boil
to syrup. Pour sirup over sliced
potatoes in baking dish, sprinkle top
layer with sugar and bits of butter.
Set in oven and let bake for an hour.

THE TABLE

Molasses Cake in Crust-One cup
New Orleans molasses, one cap thicl;
milk, almost cup of sugar, short
ening size of an egg, one teaspoon
soda, three cups flour. Bake with
under crust made as ordinary pie
crust.
Snow Pyramid-Whip one pint
good rich cream until firm, chill in
ice box. Serve in small glasses. Beat
the whites of four eggs (or if small
use about six,) sweeten, and gradual
ly stir in cup of any kind of good
fruit jelly. When you are ready to
serve, drop spoonful of the egg in
the center of each dish of cream in
shape of pyramid. This is fine when
one is entertaining.

guage and literature of Ireland by
native and Continental scholars. To
students of comparative literature
and folklore, new and seemingly in
exhaustible mine was opened, and all
those whom the antiquities of the
Celts attracted felt that, in the old
literature alone, could be heard the
authentic voice of the Celt in its earli-
est accessible form. Then again, stu
dents of philology recognized the i'm
portance of the early records of the
language for their study, and the

European philology can most easily

pean Languages"
The scholars who, during the last
sixty years, took advantage of these
new opportunities were of all nations,
and, as consequence, their work is
scattered through multitude of peri
odicals in Germany, France, Austria
and Sweden. The most distinguished
of these Celtic scholars were Zeuss,
Windisch, thinner, Thurneysen and
Meyer in Germany, Pokorny and Ebel
In Austria, Jubainville and 10th in
France, Peterson in Denmark, Strac-
han in Scotland, and O'Grady, Grove,
Bergin Stokes, and MacNeill in Ire
land. In the ancient Irish literature.
the attention of these scholars has,
up to the present, been chiefly devoted
to the epic tales and the early poetry.
1t is little wonder that the epic tales
especially should have attracted edi-
tors. In subject by turns heroic, gro
tesque. and tender with sort of fierce
and involuntary tenderness; in style,
abrupt and forcible; and penetrated
throughout by the singular humor of
the Celt, they are, of their kind, unique
and unapproachable. Little less at
4tractive is the early Irish Christian
poetry, with it's direct and sensitive
language, and, above all, its exquisite
sense of all that natural setting of
wood and marsh, hill and sea, in which
the drama of old Irish religious life
was played.
Scholars, however, who are we'll &C.
quainted with the manuscript in the
Dublin libraries, know that the greater
pafts Of the work in Celtic studies is
gtill TO be done. Whole divisions of
0ld Irish literature are, as yet, entirely
1nrepresented In print. We might
mention the Bardic Poetry, the An
