CHAPTER VII. The Gale.

'Liphalet Truitt had almost shut himself up in his little box of a house during the last few days He summed his fellowmen-even Cap'n Jonah with whom he had been friendly until recently-like any hermit. And here it was the morning of the day before Christmas.
 It was a cold morning. The long
 promised gale out of the northeast
 was driving the snow and sleet against the windows with a '<whish! Whish'
 like the sound of fretful waves along the sands. The snow squalls, driven in from the far-flung sealine, burst like bonn b-shells along the shore, then swept inland in clouds of fine snow-spray.
 He ventured into the partially shel- tered porch to view the snowy world.
 The road was deserted; but he pre- stunned the committee would by and by gather at the chapel to hang the Christmas greens.
 He pulled the battered southwestern 1 over his ears and reached for the key ] to the chapel door. The women would come to a cold and cheerless audience room if he did not step across and light the fire.
 Then, with the key in his hand, 1 he stopped, suddenly venting another snort of disgust and derision. Christ | mas-bah!" Then he hung up the key. i A suffering blast like nothing so
 much as a fog-horn with the croup l next brought the ex-steward to his door and that before mid-forenoon. He knew the voice of Doctor Am

 good physician was at the gate. The cranky mechanism of his car had quit.

 "Of course I didn't want to eat alone, so I had that Clarke girl in the dining room with me. But nat uraily didn't expect her to order what l dld, until I discovered that it was cheaper to order for two together. She began to look better after month of the sort of food I've always had. And as she picked up a little in the face, I nticed more and more how shabby she was.
 T hated to have anything so drab and poverty stricken travelling around with me, so I got her a decent suit was astonished to see how much bet ter company she was for looking de- cent: She added a lot to the trip.
 After a while, I saw the more I did for the girl, the more pleasure l got out of having her for travelling companion. So just to see what it would do, gave her half as much again salary. And she b1omed. She was so tickled at what she could do for her folks she got pretty and began being the best. company I'd | ever had.

Many of these cars will come direct from the factories and visitors to the fair will have the privilege of viewing the new models before they have been seen in New York or other Eastern cities. Other cars for the show will be taken out of the Broadway show windows and New York dealers are so much in- terested in the Danbury Fair that they have engaged all the space in a large tent that will be among those building, and will vie with the main show in offering attractive displays In another year the management hopes to have a twin to the regu- lar building erected along side, the auto show is becoming such an inn portant feature of the fair. Tents will shelter the displays of trucks and delivery cars, this year, as in the past.
 The new accessories building, which will form the south wing of the groul of permanent auto buildings, will be erected immediately. and nearly all the space has been engaged already The leading accessories houses from Boston to Philadelphia will be rep resented in the stalls that compose the building.
 Altogether this fall. two buildings and seven tens will be used by Her bert Lake, superintendent of the auto show, in housing the exhibits.

Lyric Review

Horses, horses, horses, are talked in short are the main theme of the roaring comedy, *HThe Hottentot,' '' which the PoH players are presenting this week at the Lyric review. This week the Bridgeport public will real ly get an introduction to Hooper Actchley, the versatile leading man. for he is the comedian, the lover, the imposter and the hero all in one
 MT. AtchIey with his low southern drawl and his awful manner, is ex- ceedingly we'll suited to the part of Sam Harrington the role which was created by William Collier in the New Y ork production. The plot is very well developed. and has a most unique and unexpected ending. Sam comes to pay a visit to a friend at a fash fonable hunting lodge not because he Is fond Of horses, for he is terribly afraid even to hear the tread of the animal. but because he loves the girl who is the belle of the community taken for the great Sam Harrington, Americas bravest and finest gentle man rider" and then the fun begins. In one especially humorous incident the butler, who is a .friend of Sam's hides the horse which the guest is supposed to ride in the steeplechase. Sam feels much relieved when he hears that the horse cannot be found. However he is suspected by the host but clears himself by an unusually clever reply which outwits the william who is trying to supp1aut him in the affections of Peggy Fairfax, the role played by Miss Edna Preston, the leading lady.
 Practically every member of the company, even Director Steele, is pre- scented in some special way. Lucille Poth is splendid1y cast as Mrs Chad wick, the \ frivolous and affected '1ady'' of the community while So- phie Allen is very sweet as Mrs. Ollie Clifford.

LUST HOWL TO MAKE A GOOD
 OMETIF7T.

A reader friend has written to ask me how to make Puffy Omelet. I believe that there are many other bride readers who would like to know just how" to make this dish.
 A good ome1et is not as hard a thing as it is reputed to be. I have noticed that some tousekeepers pre- fer to cook eggs in almost any other way than in this form. yet if they follow the directions given below they will not Shy at the making of an ome1et in the future. Try this good supper:
 Swedish Ome1et
 Cocoa Cornmea1 Mullins
 Sliced Peaches.
 Swedish Omelet: Separate the whites from the yolks of four eggs. Beat the whites stiff and put them in the refrigerator for a few minutes. Now put into small bowl 1 cup sweet milk. tablespoon flour: A teaspoon salt and a dash of pepper; mix well and strain through a siaxf. Beat the 4 yolks well. add to tHgn the milk and flour mixture, mix well, then ftold in the stiffly-whipped "knack" about folding the whites in correctly; they must be folded in only partly, so that whole portions of frothy whites will be floating here and there. If the whites are mixed in too thoroughly, there will not be as much puffiness to the omelet. A certain amount of watery yolk-and-milk will float under the fluffy top part after you have finished folding in the whites. Heat your frying pan very hot grease bottom and sides with butter, turn in the uncooked egg mix ture and let it cook over very moder- ate heat until set and the bottom be- gins to brown. Then keep slipping a broad fiat spatula Or pancake turner under the omelet from all sides, lift ing it constantly as it cooks, and when it is pretty well Drowned on the bOtton1 take inc nan from the ion of the stove and put it in the oven for a minue or two (this will cook the top part without causing the ome- let to fall. It does not have to brown, but just to set. If you have a broiler-that is, a burner at the top of your oven, the omelet can go under this and be set in a few sec onds.) Then take the pan from the half the omelet and quickly fold this half over the other half while still in the pan- It is an easy matter now to slip the folded omelet onto a plat ter.
 To make a Spanish Qmelet" out of this plain Swedish Omelet (such as one sees in restaurants), spread a layer of finely-minced tomato, pep if preferred) over the omelet just after it comes out of the oven and before folding it over. Or you can spread over it a layer of chopped cooked ham if you wish and thus make the dish substantial enough to serve instead of meat for dinner. Many persons do not care for this puffy variety of omelet, and such per this one change; do not beat the egg whites stiff. It is the stiflywhipped egg whites that make the omelet puffy.
