Lamb is IA wholesome meat, highly

variety to the meat diet and is wei

Lamb is an economical meat TO buy.

S or 9 pounds. including the neck,
breast, chuck or shoulder and shank,
may he purchased ut one time, and
easily handled in the average home

Some people think that lamb has
"wooly" taste. They have probably
eaten lamb from which the "felf'. or
outside skin, has not been removed.
This fell" is tough and oily and
should always be taken off
Lamb should be roasted in n very
hot oven until thoroughly scared !;
then the temperature should be re-
duced and the fat which drips from
the meat should be frequently poured
over the surface unless the meat is
roasted in IA self baster. Do not put
any fat, water or stock in the pan.
Season with salt after the first half
hour of roasting. The leg, .loin, ribs,
shoulder and breast are suitable for
roasting.

Moderate speeds. therefore, means

in actual dollars in the taxpayers and

fallen beside a Kelly-green bag he

In his ROOM with the door closed
behind him, Robert sat down in a di-

/ 1t was shabby at the corners and the
handle was worn from much contact
with Elsa's fingers. Robert felt a sud

and was so taken by surprise by that
impulse and so embarrassed by 1t in
his own sight that he opened the clasp
quite without meaning to do so and

PROFESSOR KNEW THE BIBLE
Hiding of Sacred Book Proved to Be
Something of Joke on
College Students.

A correspondent of the Boston
Transcript tells an amusing incident
in the life of DR.. Samuel F. Smith,
the author of America" At one
time Doctor Smith was pastor of the
village church in Waterville, Me-, and
at the same time taught in Waterville
college, now Colby college. The pres'-
dent of the college was accustomed to
conduct worship in the chapel ever,
morning; but on one occasion he
asked Doctor Smith to lead the sert~
ice. The students. not knowing Of
Doctor Smiths remarkable memory.
thought it would be little fun at his
expense, and at the same time es-
cape the usual Bible reading by spirit
ing away the Bible from the pulpit.
They made off with it successfully,
but, instead of hunting for the miss
ing book, Doctor Smith repeated from
memory an entire chapter.
The next day the Bible was still
missing, and the young professor re-
peated another chapter from memory
On the third morning he repeated II
longer chapter, apparently without no.
ticing that the book was not there.
On the fourth morning, since the Bible
was still in hiding, the professor
>:hought he would be even with the
Boys and repeated entirely from mem
Dry II verses from one of the Longest
chapters in the Gospel of Luke. He
spoke with great deliberation and took
much more time than was usually al
owed to Bible reading.
The students found that Doctor
Smith was toy much for them. Not
4 word was said, but the Bible reap
peared on the desk.

This was such a long speech for
her husband to make all at one time
that Mrs. Craft looked at him over

"Where'n we put him?" she asked,
after minute.
The old house was small and the
Crafts had invited~a niece to use the
front parlor and little adjoining room
for tea room for motorists.
Tom pulled at his pipe. "Why
couldn't Julie move upstairs and let
Frank have her back roOm?" he asked.
"I-well, 1 wouldn't like to ask her
to do that after the way she has fixed
it all up for herself"

With that she dashed into the house,
locking the door after her, and Clay
ton Elford was left standing alone on
the porch, feeling very much as though
the earth were caving in about him.
They had quarreled over such little
thing he could scarcely believe Peggy
would be so silly as to- end everything
between them for that, yet the tangi-
BILE evidence lay sparkling in his out
stretched palm, and he had just heard
the key to house where he had
heretofore been more than welcome,
turned against him.
! AS for Peggy, she went directly to
her room to be alone until she could
face the situation calmly. After an
hour she decided that for one thing
she must get away from Norwood at
once, at least for time.
: Hester Sanburn, at whose wedding
with Chester Cleveland she and Clay
had been attendants three years be-
fore, had been clamoring for a visit
from Peggy for some time, and in her
emergency the bewildered girl looked
to the fruit farm the Clevelands called
home as a haven of refuge.
She had felt sorry for Hester when
she found she was going to bury her
self among the Michigan peaches, but
Hester hadn't seemed to mind in the
