Veal Yith Tonato sauce

Veal, to be wholesome, must be cooked slowly and thoroughly. The trump, which is a less expensive DOT ton, should be bought. Three pounds sliced into outlets an inch and a half thick may be cooked in a roasting pan with some dripping, a can of to- matoes, four or five onions sliced parsley, tiny piece of bay leaf, salt and pepper. Allow this to cook very slowly, and the juice from the veal will be found to make a delicious combination, forming a thick sauce.

Lepers of Russia
 Delight in Cigars,
 Gift of Americans

Kishinev, Bossarabia, Sept. 3.-Via Paris, Sept. 22.--The lepers of Broasa saw their first Americans, smoked their first American cigars and received their first American shoes when two Red Cross men vis- tied their ancient colony recently. Broasa is a village west of Odessa which was formerly an important Russian medical center for the care of leprosy.
 Major Charles E. Spratt of New York City, and Major Lionel D. Har- gis of San Francisco, brought with them to Broasa supply of food, clothing and medicine. The cry of "Unclean! "Uncleanl" which met them at the gate did not deter the Amer icnas, who introduced themselves to the aged nuns in attendance. In a few minutes began the distribution of the American supplies from Red Cross automobile.
 With nothing but their eyes show ing through sits in their all-envelop- ing gowns, the lepers watched the proceedings at respectful distance. Surgical dressings, antisepitcs, ban dages, American canned goods, sev- eral dozen shirts, pajamas and suits of underclothing with an assortment

Woman Works Twelve
 Hours Daily 50 Years

Wigan, Emf, Oct. 25.-Mrs. Brid- get McHugh, the oldest "pit-brow, woman in the Pemberton coal field, has just died here at the age of so years. For more than half a cen tury she had worked at the mines.
 "Old Bridget" as Mrs. McHugh was familiarly called, was a hale and hearty, strong built woman who could use shovel in filling mine cars as well as any man, and was always looked upon as an expert pit-brow worker, few being her equal.
 The shorter working day was un- known to her and summer and win ter, rain CT shine, she was accus toned to leave home at 5 o'clock every morning and was in her place at the coal bank before the whistle sounded at G. Her day continued un- til 5 or 6 at night. Mrs. McHugh was a grandmother and two of her sons are employed in the colliery where she worked so long.

GIRL INVOLVED IN
 ATLANTA BANK CASE
 HAS VARIED CAREER
Tales Fade Into ln- signifigance Compared With
 Her Story.

Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 225.-More anna zing revelations in connection with 1 the career of Agnes Katherine Queen-P Pate -Shumaker- Bradstreet, the woman held at police station on a
 charge of suspicion in connection
 with the alleged embezzlement by the Fairburn Banking company, came to light when statements were made that she had posed as the daugh- ter of one of Atlanta's most promin- ent and wealthy business men, with the result that he was threatened by George E. Shumaker of Freeport, H., with a suit for alienation of af- factions.
 While all the details of the wom- ant life have not been revealed as yet, tales novelists who draw spectacular pictures of their adven- turesses fade into insignificance when compared to the stories told in connection with this woman's past.
 Mrs. Clarence Bradstreet-Agnes Katherine Queen-is the daughter of A. P. Queen, who now conducts a grocery store on the East Lake drive, and quite near the scene of her birth in DeKalb county, 22 years ago. Bradstreet, with whom she was living at the Georgian Terrace hotel when they were arrested, is her third husband. It is claimed that she was married to him in Au- gust.
 Agreed to Separate.
 Her first husband, named Pate, she married four years ago, but aft CT a brief period of welded bliss they agreed to go their separate ways alone and proceedings for di- vorce were instituted. At this time, according to the story told by the woman several weeks ago, Shumak- CT urged her to marry him and, aft CT being told by him that filing the divorce papers constituted divorce in Georgia. they were married and lived, together until he was called to arms under the selective service law.
 The next. step in the matrimonial procession, it is claimed, was Brad street, where her operations in At lanta first became known. While Bradstreet. who was sergeant at Camp Gordon, was stationed at the Atlanta camp the woman variously lived in an apartment on Jackson street, and in the house on St. Charles avenue. which was owned by Green, the cashier of the Fairburn bank.
 The Atlanta business man who be- came entangled in the affairs of Mrs. Bradstreet, entered the stage at this point. The wealth. social stand ing and prestige of his family was much needed by her in her varied business affairs downtown. and, it. is claimed that, posing at times as his daughter and aeain his niece, she soon became we'll known among vari- ous business houses. ~where. after paving for part of her purchases in cash. she submitted personal checks for the balance. If any one doubted the check. she suggested "M,1 father" and immediately the check was accepted. None of the checks were returned and she pursued her ways untroubled until friends of the man, knowing he had no daughter of this age, reported the affair to him.
