 Here is recipe which appealed to me very strongly as made by the chef of Sir William S. Gilbert of Gill bert and Sullivan fame, when I was .'r London 30 years ago. It really is s, foe d'sh. The second one is not as intricate bnt Gully as pleasing in every way.
 For four persons.
 1 F pounds round steak F''1l
 ]. pound fresh mushrooms
 l4 pound beef suet.
 Take three cups of flour, chop suet very fine, and mix with flour and enough cold water to make dough. Roll thin and line an earthen bowl we'll greased. Cut steak in small pieces, also mushrooms, and put first a layer of steak, then layer of mushrooms, seasoned with pepper and salt, until bowl is filled. then cover with cold water. Put thin cover of the dough over top and tie doubte clean cloth over top of bowl Boil for three hours.
 This is a delicious dish and very little is known of it in this country. box is full of matches but cannot mo- tice the one-half match which has been placed on top and across the others.
 The whole tray is then removed and turned upside down and the matches will remain in the box ap- parently defying the law of gravita- ton.
 Remove the cross piece before showing the box for inspection.

COTTON YIELD ESTIMATE
NOW 10 MILLION BALES

NEW YORK, Sept. 2O.-Turner
& Co., in their current cotton let
ter declare that despite the fact
that the world urgently needs a
greater amount of cotton than ever
before in history, there is less ac-
tual cotton to be had, while at the
same time we are confronted with
one of the worst productive sea-
sons in history. These are plain
and generally accepted facts, so
there is no use to bubble about
them. Even those most hopeful of
the situation do not expect as much
as an eleven million bale crop.
while indications point to one near
er ten million bales. That this
years consumption will be not less
twelve million bales also seems as
sured.
New cotton is moving on to the
market fast, but this is caused by
