Pert little Jenny Wren, the gossip of
the Old Orchard, happened to hear his
rattle as he flew over the Old Orchard
one day, and it set her gossipy little
tongue to going as only it can go.
There isn't any tongue that can wag
faster than that of Jenny Wren.
"Just hear that noisy fellow" said
she. Il don't wonder he and Mrs.
Rattles want to live by themselves.
If / had a voice like that / would
want to do the same thing. Did you
ever hear such voice? Isn't 1t aw-
full? He can't sing a single note, and
I've heard say that when he makes
love to Mrs. Rattles he doesn't have
a single soft note. Blacky the Crow
has a harsh enough voice, goodness
knows, but he can soften it when he
wants to. The same thing is true of
Sammy Jay. He screams most of the
time, but sometimes his voice is really
beautiful. There must be something
wrong with anyone whose voice is al
ways as hard as that of Rattles. And
then, too, his head is too big for his
body. 1 never could bear people with

her tail. "Fine clothes never make

cORNED BEEF
20. 1892. western Newspaper Union,
-. By BETSY CALLISTER q

CORNED beef usually plays an i'm
~ portant role in the diet at camps
and summer cottages remote from
food stores, because it keeps better
than fresh beef. But whether you use
the canned sort Or the freshly corned
sort, don't serve it hot in warm
weather. 1t is best when cold and
sliced thin. There is an English
dressing that you will find delicious
as substitute for the usual mustard.
To make it mix three tablespoonful
of French mustard, one-fourth tea
spoonful salt. one-eighth teaspoonfuD
paprika, one tablespoonful OF vinegar
and one-half teaspoonful worcester
shire sauce, then add one-half cupful
olive oil slowly. while stirring con-
stantly. If your family is small. use

smells something awful. But what
could you expect of anyone who lives
in a hole in the ground and eats moth
ing but fish,"
II live in hole In the ground, and
know good many others who do
the same thing, and let me tell you
that our houses are as neat and
clean and sweet as those of people
who live in holes in trees" spoke up
Johnny Chuck, who had been listening.
For my part think Rattles the King
fisher has more sense than some peo-
pie I could mention, If it is true that
he makes his home in hole in the
ground"
"That is all right for you folks who
cannot fly" retorted Jenny Wren
sharply, "but for bird-Bah! 1t
gives me the feeling that he is only
half bird. And they say that he makes
his nest of fish bones! Did you ever
hear of anything like that? No self
respecting bird will have anything to
do with another who lives in hole in
the ground and uses fish bones for
nest. Fish bones! Think of it,"
81 don't know that that is any
worse than using Mr.. Blacksnake's old
clothes to line a nest with, and that
is what Cresty the Flycatcher does"
said Chatterer the Red Squirrel, who
had been listening.
Certainly it isl" snapped Jenny
Wren. "And then think how the place
smells!"
And so Jenny Wren chartered on
and on, and the other birds said little.
But it was clear to Johnny Chuck that
they agreed with Jenny Wren. They
didn't like Rattles the Kingfsher, and
all because he didn't live as they did.

Washington.-The average fare

cents, according to the Commerce
department.
This Is per cent lower than
the fare in effect at the beginning
of 1892, is only about half of the
average rate in effect on Janu-

average railroad rate of about
cents per mile.
The rates announced By the de-

Air travel rates have become so
low that government employees,

WITH SOUR CREAM

a S OFTEN sour milk and cream ac-
\ cumulates, one must be alert to
make the best use of such valuable
food.
Johnny cake is one of the best of
hot breads to use the sour milk or
cream. If one has cream, the short
ening may be lessened or left out en-
tirely.
Sour milk and sour cream may take
the place of the sweet milk in any
recipe when using -four. A bit of
soda. often not more than an eighth
of a teaspoonful need be added and
the usual baking powder used as in
the recipe for sweet milk. 1t is better
to stir the soda into the sour milk or
cream, seeing that it is well dissolved.
before adding to the -four and egg
mixture.
When sour cream is to be substi-
tuted for fat, one must remember that
it takes the place of some of the liquid
as well as fat. very little expert
ence will enable one to judge of the
richness of cream and the exchange
when using it instead of butter.
Another point to be remembered is
that sour milk needs a bit more thick
ening than sweet, as the Tactic acid
acts on the gluten of the flour, soft
ening it.
Sugar Cookies.
Take one cupful of sugar. one egg,
one cupful of thick sour cream, one
half teaspoonful of soda, flour to roll
about two cupfuls-two teaspoon
fuls of baking powder. one-half tea.
spoonful of salt, one-fourth teaspoon
full of lemon extract and grating
of nutmeg. Mix and roll out only d
portion at a time. Brush the cookies
with milk and sprinkle with coarse
sugar. Bake ten minutes in hot
oven. This amount makes three dozen
thin cookies two and one-half inches
in diameter.
Chocolate Drop Cookies.
Take one cupful of brown sugar,
one egg, one cupful of thick sour
cream, one-half teaspoonful each of
soda and salt, three-fourths of cup
full of nutmeats. one and one-half cup

Carideo, as head coach of foot ball at the University of Missouri here, is concluding a season r0f de- feat and disappointment. His team won only one game. It was beaten by Texas, by the largest score ever rolled up against a Missouri U eleven.
 Playing for Notre Dame, fol- lowing where Rock led, I never realized the staggering problems which confront a coach," Carideo told the United Press. My affec- ton for Rockne could be no great CT. My respect for his accomplish ments has increased tremendous ly in the last few months"
 Losing Complex
 Carideo's compact, poferful frame was hunched before a radio loudspeaker' when the interviewer found him. He was listening to a play-by-play account of the Notre Dame-Army game.
 Its been a tough season for the kids" It's been heart-breaking, sometimes, to watch them out there fighting for 60 minutes, only to lose"
 Carideo never knew what it meant to play on losing team. Rockne's !elevons won.
 Eve found it takes more than II men and a coach to make q football team," hc said. As a play. CT, 1 didn't realize that one of the major tasks of a coach is to bolster the morale, not only of his players, but of the students and alumni as well. He must develop winning complex.
 Not so Bad
 "T couldn't have asked more CO., operation and support from stu- dents, faculty and alumni that year, but the spark of victory was lacking. Missouri was in the habit of losing, and lose we did.
 "But have you noticed the change in the past few weeks? As the team improved and 1t has improved tremendously--so has tho morale improved. I think we've done as we'll as could be expected this year. But watch out for us in 1893"
 Missouri will finish the 1882 sea- son this week end with 8 game against St Louis university to be played at St Louis.

New Haven, Nov 28.-In the third professional boxing show of the winter season Joe Banovic, con- queror of Al Gainer, state light heavyweight champion, will meet Al Boross, the Bridgeport Hungari- an k. o. puncher Tn the main ten- round attraction. Leo Larrivee, originally slated to meet Banovic sustained leg injury and was therefore incapacitated to fight at the New Haven Arena on Friday night.
 Supplementing the main attrac- tion will be four top-notch bouts with Kid Cocoa, New Haven's colored sensation and Patsy Ru- binetti. the Brooklyn Italian with 32 straight wins under his belt. The card consists of 34 rounds of boxing and 1t appears that the complete card Is q "naturaP
 Return Bout
 Boross met Banovic at Walnut Beach during the summer and the bout was acclaimed one of the best heavyweight contests seen in this vicinity in some time. According to the score card of Referee Me Auliffe there was only a one-point difference in his reckoning. State and local fight fans have witt messed both Boross and Banovic in action on the two previous cards and their second meeting should prove even more torrid than the first since both boys have fought several contests since that time and are in excellent condition.
 The Cocoa Kid will exchange mittens with Patsy Rubinettl, classed as the best lightweight prospect since Tony Canzoneri. The Brooklyn Italian has won his last 32 starts and should prove a thorn in the success path of the colored sensation.
