LEFT TO THE IMAGINATION
Thackeray's Question as to "Never
Was" Speech Would Seem an
Easy One to Answer.

The two great English novellsts,
Thackeray and Dickens, although
there was at one time a GOODNESS be-
tween them, were generous admirers
of each others genius. They left obi
Gus comparisons to foolish and petty
partisans, of whom there were plenty
in the following of each. But Thack-
cray, according to an anecdote recent-
ly related, once admitted to his Ameri.
can friend, the eloquent Congressman
Lamar, little touch of pique concern
ing the public estimation of his own
ability and that of Dickens in minor
art. The two were driving together to
a banquet of the Literary fund, at
which Dickens, who was an admirable
after-dinner orator, was to preside.
Lamar" said Thackeray, they say
1 can't speak. But If l want to-. | can
speak every bit as we'll as Dickens,
and I'm going to show you tonight
that l can speak almost as well as you
can !"
But when the moment arrived in the
course of the proceedings at which to
make good his assertion, it came, and
passed; and Thackeray uttered never
word. When the banquet was over
and the friends were returning, both
silent, in their cab, Thackeray turned
suddenly to his companion.
Lamar" he exclaimed, don't you
think you have heard tonight the
greatest speech that ever was never
delivered ?"-Youth's Companion.

Serve the cabbage neatly arranged in

Rice Cooked in Chicken Stock
Cook rice until nearly tender in water
then add enough chicken stock to sea-

Cottage Cheese and Peanut Salad
Mix a half cupful of peanuts, which

and serve on lettuce.
Steamed Dat Bread.-Mix two cup

egg yolks, turn into a pie tin lined

should be shaken until dry. Holding
the feather by the rib it is shaken and
gently beaten against the other hand.
If the little flues cling together this
may be corrected by holding them over
the spout of a steaming kettle. When
the plume is thoroughly dry it is ready
for curling.
An ordinary table knife will answer
for curling a plume. The plume is
drawn along the edge of the knife be-
tween it and the thumb. The trick
is to curl the flue only at the end and
not too tightly. Each flue is to be
cured to correspond with the others.
A faded plume may be tinted or
white plume given a color by dipping
them in gasoline into which little
oil paint, such as comes in small tubes,
has been dissolved. One has to ex-
pertinent to get the tint wanted. Gas
oline will not affect the curl of a
feather. This tinting should be done
by an open window in a room that has
no fire of any kind in it, or in the
open air.
1t takes a professional feather man
ufacturer to make fancy feather or
namentS, wreaths and pompons of the
flues. There are many new ways of
using ostrich flues on the new milli-

Cream is whipped enough when the
egg beaten leaves its print in the

often cause bits of butter to form in
the cream.
A sufficient quantity of white sauce

In making French dressing use half

tank by means of an ell and short
piece of pipe, should turn down to
within a few inches of the bottom so
that the cold water may be conducted
to the bottom, forcing the warmer
water through the outlet pipe. Cream
cans should stand on cleats so that
water may circulate under as well as
around them. The outlet pipe should
be about IL inches in diameter.
Locknuts and sheet packing may be
used to make tight joints where pipes
enter and leave the tank.
When using tank in which water
is the cooling agent it must be borne
in mind that the water should either
flow through the tank continuously or
be changed so frequently that the
cream will be kept as cold as the well

DAIRY
TANKS TO KEEP CREAM COOL
Can Be Purchased From Dealers In
Dairy Supplies, or They May Be
Made on the Farm.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
On most farms cream can be cooled
water. In order to facilitate the cool
ing various types of tanks have been
devised. Such tanks can be purchased
from dealers in dairy supplies and
sometimes from the local hardware
merchant. or they may be made on the
farm. A cooling tank should be large
enough to hold at least two cream
cans in order that the newly sepa-
rated cream may be cooled in a can
separate from that previously gath
cred.
In order to keep the cream cool 1t
is necessary to change the water sew
eral times a day. For this reason the
tank should be situated between the
well and the stock tank so that all
water pumped for the stock passes
through the cooling tank, thence to
the stock tank.
Of whatever design the cooling tank
may be it should have tight cover
to keep out the heat, and for the same
reason it is advisable to place it in
the dairy house or under a shed so
that the sun cannot shine directly
upon it.
An excellent tank may be made Of
two-inch planned cypress boards, prop
erly bolted together, painted on the
outside and oiled on the inside; or, If
it is desirable to keep the cost down
to the minimum, very simple and
cheap cooling tank may be made from
two or more oil or vinegar barrels
one for each can.
The pipe conducting the water into
the tank should be about IL inches
in diameter, and upon entering the

Now that ostrich feathers have re-
turned to favor the woman that has
cared for her plumeS will bring them
aont to find them increased in money
value and available in a number of
ways. Fashion approves of ostrich
flues in many forms and plumes are
used not alone in millinery but as dec

making the handsomest fans. The

except that the curling process is a

Already coats for winter, both in
cloth and fur, have passed and are
daily passing in review before mer
chants and buyers and reporters who
publish the styles. Certainly no win
ter was ever heralded by more com
Portable or more becoming garments.
They are fuller than last years mod
els and the same materials that were
so successful then are used to make
them. Duvetyn, velours and similar
cloths appear in lighter weights than
last year so that top coats and suits
may be full and draped without be-
ing clumsy. This ampleness of cloth
makes the top coat easy to slip on and
off and adds to its warmth. and there
is room under it for panniers and other
arrangements Of drapery for wide hip
effects, These are fairly well estab-
lished in the styles and must he reck-
0ned with. Heavy homespuns are
used in some of the handsome and
practical new models.
Collars are either of fur or of the
cloth in the coat. They are very coy
looking in either case The fur col
lars are wide and fit snusIy, coming
up about the face and chin and very
high at the back. The clotu collars
are managed so as to give the same

The coat shown in the picture is a
good example of the new styles in
substantial and practical top coats. It
IS of heavy cloth and therefore not us
full as dressier models. Its narrow
belt of the cloth fastens at one side,
and its very odd and smart cuffs are
finished with a single large button.

In these days of thin cream which
refuses to whip, solution called Wis

made at home and kept indefinitely If
well stoppered Take five ounces of
sugar and dissolve in ten ounces of
water. Add six ounces of cold water
to two ounces of quiclklime and let 1t
gradually slake then strain through
fine sieve, to remove unSlaked partl-
cles. Combine the two liquids and
shake occasionally for two hours. In
three hours set the mixture aside to
settle, then siphon or pour off the clear
liquid. Store in small bottles tightly
corked, as the liquid absorbs carbonic
acid from the ais, thus darkening the
color and reducing the strength. Keep
either in q dark bottle or wrap the
bottle in dark paper. Use one-fourth
of a teaspoonful of the viscogen to
three-fourths of cupful of cream,
well chilled. Stir WELL then beat with
an egg-beater as usual.

GIVE SOIL MORE ATTENTION
When Dairymen Do This They Will
Find Themselves Independent
of Feed Dealers.

The time has come when dairy farm
ers must devote more attention to soil
management and crop growing and
less attention to balanced rations until
they get their farms on a self-sustain-
ing basis. When dairy farmers do this
they will discover that they are indie
pendent of feed dealers in feeding the
cows, and as the system is continued
few years they will create a surplus
which can be utilized in feeding horses,
beef cattle, sheep and hogs.

Investigations by Professor McCand-
