V After ordering’ your bulbs set about
getting a compost ready in which to
pot them. As good a soil as any is one
composed of ordinary garden loam,
sands, and well-rotted cow manure in
equal parts. One-third sand may seem
like too much of a good thing, but it
isn’t. Nowhere in the world are bet
ter bulbs grown than in Holland,whose
soil is nearly all sand. Better bulbs
can be grown in clear sand, properly
fertilized, than in the richest of soil
without sand. Mix your compost well
and have it fine and mellow. It is very
important that the manure should bo
old. Fresh manure is harmful to all
bulbous plants, out or in doors. I
should advise the growing of several
bulbs in the same pot.—Ladies’ Home
Journal.
An Egg Cocktail to Begin the Day.
The man who wants a cocktail in
the morning which does not contain
any alcohol and which acts as a bracer
can now'get one if he applies at any
well regulated cafe for an “egg cock
tail.” An egg cocktail is a very sim
ple and harmless concoction. It is well
known in certain sections of the city
already. Here is the way it is made:
Take an egg and break it into a glass,
put in pepper and salt, squeeze the
juice of a lemon into the glass, and
your cocktail is ready. The lemon
juice is credited with the ability to re
move any unpalatable taste the raw
egg may contain.—New York Times.

The Best Work.
Generally good, useful work, whether
of the hand or head, is either ill paid
or not paid at all. I don’t say it should
be so, but it always is so. People, as a
rule, only pay for being amused. For
being cheated, not for being served.
Five thousand a year to your talker
and a shilling a day to your fighter,
digger and thinker, is the rule. None
of the best head work in art, literature
or science is ever paid for. How much
do you think Homer got for his “Iliad?”
Or Dante for his "Paradise?” Only
bitter bread and salt and going up and
down other people's stairs

Wasps as Paper-Makers,
Not only do wasps make paper, but
even card-board; In South America
there is a species of wasp that manu
factures a card-board so smooth and
firm that it may be written or drawn
upon and it is in one way superior to
the article made by man, as it is water
proof. The heaviest rains will not

I
| MY BURGLAR! |
When X went to bed that night my
hair was as black as it used to be.
When the day dawned It was light. So
you may see how badly I was fright
ened.
I was paying the penalty for over
work at the time by taking a health
trip, and I carried along $475 to pay it
with. I also took a fish pole and a
northwesterly direction for the Michi
gan woods.
When” I was leaving Detroit on the
steamer I wrapped up $400 in a rubber
band and stowed them away in the in
side pocket of my vest, and I soon ac
quired the habit of touching myself
every time I thought of it to see wheth
er my cash balanced, or, to speak more
accurately, to see whether I still had
the bulge on my vest.
As soon as X found this nervous ha
bit fastening itself upon me I was sorry
that X had not always carried large
sums of money and got used to the sen
sation, but it was too late for vain re
grets, an^. I determined to make the
best of it. But I decided that I would
always in the future have plenty of
money.
It was a little too early in the season
for the summer run of schoolma'ams
on the lakes, and there were only a
few passengers on board the steam
boat. These were made up mostly of
commercial travelers and a fair as
sortment of those dusty-booted, slouch
hatted, shoddy-clad men who travel on
trains and boats everywhere without
any apparent reason or object. There
was one lady on board.
A uci t* was aisu UJUlUtU paoncusci
a red-headed man with a sinister eye
and a smell of horse about him so pro
nounced that the lady passenger asked
for “the radish” at dinner, thinking to
avoid hurting his feelings by saying
horse radish in his presence.
If I had not been carrying a wad of
money into a lonely country I should
have paid little attention to this ill
favored person; but I was carrying a
wad of money, and I suspected that he
knew of it. For the life of me I could
not help pressing that wad with my
Angers every time I met him or heard
his voice or smelt horse. I was cer
tain that he noticed this involuntary
action and that he knew the reason of
it, and I came to believe that he was
on the boat because I was and that he
would get off when I did.
He did get off when I did, at 11
o’clock at night on the lonely dock in
the town of Gravelton, and no one left
the boat there but us two. I saw him
disappear in the darkness and I took
my seat in the hotel bus.
The Gravelton hotel was one of those
large, cheaply built houses which one
will And in all the lumbering towns of
the west where land is cheap and pine
is cheap and regular boarders are
cheap and numerous, but my room was
clean enough and reasonably secure.
The window had no fastenings, but the
sash had swelled and the casement held
it in a grip which all my strength
could not loosen. The door was pro
vided with a bolt and lock, and the
transom was too narrow to admit the
body of a man. I felt pretty secure, but
I was made nervous by the fact that
the curtain failed to cover the lower
part of the window. I was morally
certain that my ugly fellow traveler
stood outside in the darkness, watch
ing me with hungry eyes.
I did not feel sleepy enough to go to
bed, neither did I And it particularly
THERE WAS A BURGLAR. IN MY
ROOM.
cheerful to sit In the one little wooden
chair which the room afforded, and
gaze at the cheap wall paper covering
the pine partition, or the “skied” pic
ture of a flaming red, long tailed bird
of paradise with his head set backward
on his neck. My books were in my
trunk and there was nothing at hand
to read except an old newspaper which
was doing duty as a cover to the wash
stand.
Glancing at this paper I saw that the
page exposed to view was made up of
"syndicate” matter and that the prom
inent article was by a startling coinci
dence the story of an adventure with
a burglar. I began reading it.
The narrator told how he found him
self in a strange room seeking for a
safe place to bestow his money for the
night; how he determined to place it
between the leaves of a dictionary, and
wishing to remember the exact place
he thought he would open the book at
the word money, but behold, when he
opened it the first word that he saw
was murder.
Here the narrative was broken by a
soap dish, which adhered firmly to the
paper in spite of my careful efforts to
remove it, and I read no further.
I arose and shook myself. "Pshaw!”
I said, "what a fool I am. He’s proba
bly just an ordinary hostler come up
here to work, or perhaps to see his old
mother. No doubt he's as honest as
I am. I wonder what word he would
have found if he’d opened the diction
ary at Cash,” I soliloquized, and out
of mere idle curiosity I took from my
handbag the nearest approach I had to
a dictionaiy—a little paper covered
book of synonyms, and opened it at C
Clutch—grasp—lay-hold-on—catch—
seize.
This was the last line that met my
gaze. I laughed, threw the book on
the table and began to undress.
"If any one enters my room tonight,”
I thought, as I folded up my vest and
placed it under the pillow, “I’ll clutch
him, grasp him, lay hold on him,
catch him, seize him, and yell for
help.”
When I went to sleep I dreamt that
1 was wading up a trout stream fishing
for black bass with a wad of money
for bait and that as fast as I caught
Bsh I was robbed of them by a red
headed horse.
From the number of fish I had
:aught I judge that I must have slept
:wo or three hours; then I found my
self suddenly awake, listening intently,
ind anxiously snuffing the air. I was
:ertain of two things. Some one was
moving in the room, and I smelled
lorse.
It is easy to write of this thing now
n a spirit of levity, but I had no such
feeling as I lay there straining my
:yes to no purpose in the inky dark
less, but hearing that fellow move
ibout the room boldly, without caution,
is though it mattered nothing to him
vhether I slept or wakened.
“If I move,” I thought, "he is ready
vith his knife or club to silence me
’orever.”
i um not Know wnetner or not no
had already taken the vest from under
my pillow and I did not care Just theD
to Investigate. I moved not a muscle,
but when the first tumult of sudden
fright had subsided I tried to think—
to reason.
"I am here for my health,” I thought
“Now won’t it be healthier to lie still
and let him take my money than to
move a linger and let him take my lire
—what little I have? How did he get
in here? Ah, of course! the window
I couldn’t budge It, but he is muscular.
I should have thought of that.”
What was the man doing? The
sounds he made were exactly euch as a
man makes in dressing. Heavens!
would he exchange clothes with me,
leaving his horsey old suit in the
room? He was at the washstand pour
ing out water—washing his hands. My
fright was giving way to anger at the
cool impudence of the man. Doubtless
he had on my clothes now, Including
the vest, with the wad of bills in the
inside pocket. Coward that I was to
lie there and let him take my prop
erty.
I hesitated no longer, but sprang
from the bed and with the cry of
“Help!” rushed with resistless fury
slam bang against the partition over
where I thought the man stood.
Some one tried to open my door, then
knocked on It for admittance. Backing
toward it so as to guard myself from an
attack by the burglar, I found the bolt
and lock and threw the door open. A
flood of light filled the room; the win
dow waB closed and the only persons
present were myself and my visitor—a
gentleman fully dressed, with a lighted
lamp in his hand and a trout basket
3lung over his shoulder.
“There was a burglar in my room,”
I began. “I couldn’t see the scoundrel,
but I heard him washing his hands and
putting on my—”
I stopped, for I saw my clothes hang
ing where I had left them.
“I think you must have heard me
washing and dressing,” said the gen
tleman, "and I must ask you to pardon
me for disturbing you. I should have
remembered that the walls between
these rooms are very thin.”
That is my burglar story. I might
devise a better ending for It if my im
aginative powers were equally distrib
uted, but they seem mostly to center in
my olfactory nerves. I could have
sworn that I smelled horse.

The Mother of Seven Soldiers.
When Col. Knok, of the duke of
Cornwall’e light infantry, acquainted
the queen with the fact that Mrs. Ke
veth, of Garrow, St. Bernard, Corn
wall, was the mother of seven sons,
all in the army, her majesty caused
the following leter to be written to
Col. Knox: “Her majesty considers the
fact of seven sons of one family serv
ing in the army, all with exemplary
characters, reflects infinite credit on
themselves and the parents who have
brought them up. The queen desires
that you will congratulate Mrs. Ke
veth, give her the £10 and framed print
of her majesty, which I send herewith,
and tell her how glad the queen is to
think of this fine example of good and
honorable service to their sovereign
and country from the sons of a single
Cornish family. Her majesty has kept
the photograph of Mrs. Keveth which
you sent me, and would be glad to I
have one of the seven brothers in a'j
group, but if this cannot be obtained of
separately.” The photographs have
been framed together in an oval frame,
that of Mrs. Keveth beiflg in the mid

The secretof making' dark, “craekly”
gingerbread, shiny on top, is to bear
in mind that the shortening must be
poured boiling hot on the molasses,
and that the mixture must be beaten
as little as possible. The flour should
be mixed in with a few deft turns of
the spoon. Pour one-half of a large
teacup of boiling hot shortening, lard
and butter mixed upon one-half pint
of New Orleans molasses, add two ta
blespoonfuls of milk ond one of ground
ginger, then sift in a generous half
pint of flour, to which a teaspoonful of
baking soda has been added, lastly,
one well beaten egg, then mix, with
out beating, and bake in one largo tin
plate or small dripping pan. Serve
hot, and breuk, not cut, at the table.
Do not use baking powder as the cream
of tartar will spoil the cake, the molas
ses neutralizes the elfect of the soda
quite as effectually. If a chocolate
icing, such as is used on eauclaires is
liked, the glazed effect may be pro
duced if this rule is strictly followed:
Grate two squares of unsweetened
chocolate, add a half cup of granulated
sugar, a tablespoonful of boiling wa
ter and a teaspoonful. of vanilla, boil
Bvo minutes. While still warm, but
not hot, spread on the cake. This may
be eaten fresh, but not hot.

A Delicious Apple Desert.
An attractive sweet dish that is
:hoice enough to serve at a luncheon
consists of tart baked apples covered
with Byrup containing nuts and can

cream. Peel and core nice apples, lay
them in a baking dish and pour over
them a half cupful of cold water. Put
in the oven, which should he hot, and
when they begin to cook sift over them
granulated sugar. Cook until soft, but
not until the sections lose their shape.

and cut in bits. Add these to the sy

Excitement Kills ■ Monkey.
It is believed the monkeys in the zoo
knew they were to be removed into
better quarters before it occurred, says
the Philadelphia Times. They had, no
doubt, heard the now monkey-house
talked about as the finest in the world
by visitors and keepers, and realized
that there was to be some great change
in their condition. This naturally in
terested them and kept them on the
tiptoe of expectation. For several days
befor the removal their excitable na
tures were all wrought up, and on the
day of removal their excitement was
almost uncontrolable, showing plainly
they had kept posted regarding the
eventful day. When the hour arrived
a favorite monkey and splendid speci
men of his kind was taken by his keep
er from the old house to be quartered
in the new one. It was seen that he
was in a highly excited condition, and
on the way to his new homb he sud
denly expired in the keeper's arms. - It
was a clear case of heart ^disease,
brought to a fatal termination by the
excitement.
