THE LOVE OF
WAH SOUNG
By A , H. Martin
As the sturdy figure paused under
the balcony and gazed upon her with
Interested eyes , Wa'h Soung shivered
with suppressed excitement and hid
her blushing face behind her fan.
This was the third tlmo that the
hnndsomo young American with the
commanding presence and smiling
face had gazed upon her oriental
beauty with nioro than passing In
terest , and the heart of the Httlo
daughter of the flowery land throbbed
rapturously. So she peeped slyly
from behind the sheltering expanse
of her fan and returned the smile
with pretty lips.
Suddenly Wall Soung with dlfaculty
suppressed n tiny scream. The tall
blonde stranger had laid hold of a
creeper that twined Its graceful
length round the supports of the bal
cony and was climbing up. Even
In that Instant of fear Wall Soung
could not repress a feeling of admira
tion for this man who had no fear.
For It Is a brave man that ventures
Into the clutch of the dragon when
the moon veils her face behind the
clouds and there Is none to see.
For an Instant the girl hesitated
whether to flee behind the protecting
walls or await the advance of the bold
Invader. The tluld heart beat with
terror , but her curiosity prevailed
over the call of generations of slav
ery and fear of the horror that would
follow detection. And while she still
wavered the man had gained the bal
cony and was at her side.
Gently he addressed her In the lan
guage of her fathers , and she , taking
heart , answered his greetings with
soft words and smiles. And as they
whispered , neither marked the baleful
eyes that glared at them from the
shadow cast by the towering walls.
And their talk flowed on as the mel
ody of the brook that sings of love
when the days are long and the sun
smiles on the blushing flowers.
After many minutes the man slipped
cautiously Into the embrace of the
creeper and stole from her presence.
She had his pledge that ho would
return at the same hour on the next
night , and she had promised to bo
there.
But as she turned away from the
street her mother seized her roughly
and struck her furiously In the face.
"Wretched one , " she hissed , with
flashing eyes , "vile spawn of a snake.
Is It for this that you were brought
from the land of' flowers ? Know yo
not that yo are destined for the hon
orable Ling Wong of many treasures ?
And ye waste smiles on a son of the
thrlco accursed 'whlto pigs. ' For this
your shoulders shall smart and the
face of thy honorable mother will bo
dark against thee for many days. And
If the great Ling learns of this , then ,
Indeed , wore It better for theo to
have remained In the land of your
fathers. "
And with many blows she dragged
the weeping Wah Soung Into the
house.
The moon shone brightly from her
throne In the darkling sky and the
waves lapped gently against the sides
of the wharves. From her window
Wah Soung watched for the coming
of her whlto love. And her heart was
heavy , for the angry hand of her
honorable parent had severed the
clinging length of the friendly creeper.
Suddenly her small body straightened
and her gaze became fixed.
On the other side of the narrow
street strolled a man and a woman.
Their laughter floated up to the win
dow , borne on the unfeeling wings
of the night wind. And she saw the
man , the man for whom she was
suffering , glance toward the window.
He smiled , said something to his com
panion , and again they laughed. And
as she gazed , her mother's scornful
laughter fell upon her ears.
Wah Soung rubbed her bare shoul
ders where the strokes of the whip
glared redly , and bowing her head In
her aching arms , wept.
Offenses Against the Eyes.
The first offense against the eyes Is
reading with a poor light. This re
quires the ciliary muscle to do extra
work to sharpen sight. It applies to
dim lights , twilight , sitting too far
from the light. The second offense Is
one of posture stooping or lying
down congests the eye , besides re
quiring unnatural work of the eye
muscles.
Reading on trains is our third of
fense , the motion causing such fre
quent changes of focus and position
as to tax the muscles of accommoda
tion as well as the muscles of fixa
tion. Reading without needed glasses
or with badly-fitted ones , Is the last ,
Eye strain Is certainly a factor In pro-
duclng disease of every part of the
eye. Old ago Is the time of rotrlba
tlon for those who have sinned against
their eyes. Health.
Thackeray's Poets.
Thackeray's favorite poets were
Goldsmith and the "sweet lyrlo sing
ers , " Prior , whom he thought the
easiest , the richest , the most charm
Ingly humorous of English lyrical
poets , and Gay , the force of whose
elmple melody and artless ringing
laughter ho appreciated. Ho admired
Pope , too ; but while admitting Mil
ton's greatness , thought him "such r
bore that no one could read him. " II
is not surprising , therefore , thai
Thackeray never essayed the "big
bow-wow kind" of poetry. Fortnight

NEW IDEAS IN DESSERTS.
Delicious Dishes Will Be Welcome
Change In the Menu.
A recipe from n western cook for a
maple mousse that Is simply prepared
and costs no more tuan a quart of ice
cream :
Beat until light and foamy the
'yolks of four eggs , and put them In
n double boiler with one cup of maple
sirup. Cook , stirring constantly , for
15 minutes , then remove from the flro
and beat until quite cold. Stir In
one pint of rich cream which has been
stlflly whipped , pour Into mold , cover
and pack In Ice and salt for about five
hours.
For further freezing , have a thick
layer of shaved Ice In your pall , set
the mold In , sprinkle in a little salt
over the Ice , then fill the pall with ,
alternate layers of Ice and salt.
There nro some women who dlsltkq
to fuss with cracking and shaving Ice ,
and numerous Jollies and creams can
be prepared that arc quite as dcllghti
ful and refreshing as the frozen vnt
rlety. One of these Is plnoapplo
Bavarian cream.
Chop finely a medium-sized plnei
apple , add 'to It one cup granulated
sugar , and let simmer 20 minutes , then
add one-third of a box of gelatin , which
has been dissolved In one-half cup of
water. Stir them until cold , then add
one pint of rich cream and one-fourth
pound candled cherries. Mix thori
oughly , then put In a mold and set
away on the Ice.
DUMPLINGS FOR THE STEW.
Light and Palatable Accompaniment
to Chicken.
Stow a chicken In enough salted
water to cover until tender. Whllo
chicken Is cooking prepare dumplings
as follows : Boll six large potatoes
until done , then mash or put through
potato rlcer while hot. While cooking ,
cut about three slices of bread Into onei
half Inch dice and brown In two largo
tablespoons butter.
Salt the potatoes to taste , add pep *
per , nutmeg , one tablespoon sweetj
marjoram , three eggs , the browned
bread and flour enough to shape Into
dumplings. Shape one and drop Into
boiling water to try. If It falls apart ,
add more flour to the mixture. Put ;
the mixture on a floured board am }
roll out with the hands the shape nf a
sausage and cut Into two-Inch lengths.
When chicken Is tender , take out and
place on hot platter in warm place.
Bo sure that there Is enough broth left
to boll dumplings by adding a llttlq
more boiling water If necessary.
Drop In the dumplings , boll from five
to seven minutes , or until done ; take
out , place around chicken and thicken
the remaining broth with about two-
thirds cup flour that has been cooked
In one-half cup butter. Pour over
chicken and dumplings and servo
while hot.
Tub Cheese.
Many years ago I used to see this
peculiar cheese prepared , says a writ
er in the Boston Globe. Fresh , sweet
milk was used , and the curds were
sot with rennet in the usual way.
Every day , or ns often as the milk
curd could be spared for the
purpose , the curds were "run
up , " salted and packed solid In a
wooden tub kept for this use. When
full the tub was covered with a thick
cloth and heavy , close cover , and set
away In a dark and remote corner of
the cellar. There It remained several
weeks or months before It was con
sidered fit to use. 1 never knew what
changes took place In the stuff during
this ripening period , but I do remem
ber how odlferous that region of the
cellar became whenever the covers
were removed.
Mustard Sauce.
Put two tablcspoonfuls butter In a
saucepan over the fire and heat with
out browning. Mix In two tablespoonfuls -
fuls of flour and pour In gradually a
pint of hot stock or water , stirring
until thickened and perfectly smooth.
Add two tablespoonfuls more butter ,
cut In small pieces and salt and pep
per to season. Mix In three tablespoonfuls -
spoonfuls of made English mustard
and a little cayenne.
For a cold mustard sauce to serve
with meats rub a quarter of a cup of
mustard smooth with a tablespoonful
of olive oil and a teaspoonful each of
onion Juice , sugar and paprika. When
well blended add enough vinegar to
make a paste , beat ten minutes and
turn Into a close stoppered mustard
cup.
Smooth Lunch Cloths.
To have lunch cloths and center
pieces without creases from having
been folded Is difficult. Either save
the heavy pasteboard rolls that pic
tures and calendars come In or make
a roll of heavy paper about twice as
largo around as a broom handle ; and ,
by the way , an old broom handle
serves to start the roll of paper on ,
having two lengths , one about a foot
long for small linen pieces and another
about three feet long for larger pieces ,
and roll the freshly Ironed linens on
these rolls and keep in linen drawers
ready for use and It will not be neces
sary to iron the creases out of each
piece , as Is the case wheu they are
folded.
Chocolate Ann.
Three cups of white sugar , one cup
milk , one-fourth teaspoonful cream of
tartar , two squares of chocolate , one
tablespoon of butter , one tablespoon
of vanilla ; boll sugar , milk and cream
of tartar nine minutes , or until It will
form a soft ball ; add chocolate ( melt
ed ) and butter ; cook one mlnuto
longer ; remove from fire ; add vanilla ;
beat vigorously for one or two min
utes , then pour in pans ; mark IB
nquares.
VALUE OF ORANGES
ONE OF THE MOST HEALTHFUL
OF FOODS.
Many Delicious Dishes That Can Be
Prepared from This Royal Fruit
Omelet That Will Be
Appreciated.
Medical men say that an acid orange -
ango oaten dally before breakfast
from December to April tends to pro
duce a condition of almost perfect
icnlth. It Is well known that singers
consume large quantities of oranges ,
the juice of the fruit being considered
specially good for the voice. Fresh
'rults are always wholesome nud ap
petizing ns a food or In beverages ,
and fruit In some form should bo
eaten dally. Oranges may bo served In
many dainty dishes , and ono may re-
lolce over the fact that Ihe supply Is
plentiful and the price reasonable.
Orange Omelot. Heat the yolks of
six eggs with seven teapspoonfuls of
powdered sugar. Whip the whites to
n stiff froth and pour the egg nud
sugar mixture over them. Mix lightly ,
at the same time adding the juice and
grated outside rind of a largo orange.
Melt a tablespoonful of butter In a
frying pan and tilt It about until the
bottom and sides are well greased.
Pour In the omelet and cook slowly.

a hot oven for two minutes , then fold
It together , place on a heated dish
and servo at once.
Orange Holy Poly. Peel , slice ami
seed four sweet oranges. Sift together
ono pint of flour , ono tablespoonful of
baking powder and one-quarter of a
Lcaspoouful of salt. Rub Into this two
tablespoonfuls of butter and mix In
sufficient sweet milk to make a soft
dough. Turn out on a well-floured
board , roll out In a long strip , spread
with the sliced oranges and sprinkle
well with sugar. Roll up , pinch the
ends so that the juice will not run out ,
ay on a buttered plate and steam for
30 minutes , then Bet In the oven until
the top Is dried off. Serve with hard
sauce. i
Orange Pudding. Take three or
anges , the juice of half a lemon , one
? Int of milk , ono tablespoonful of
cornstarch , one cupful of sugar , two
eggs and one-fourth of a teaspoonful
of salt Peel the oranges and cut them
into pieces half the size of a nutmeg ,
taking out the tough portions In the
center. Place the pieces In a pudding
dish , squeeze the lemon Juice over
them , add half a cupful of the sugar ,
stlrand , set aside while the rest of the
pudding Is being prepared. Beat the
yolks of the eggs , stir In two tablespoonfuls -
spoonfuls of milk , add the same quan
tity of milk to the cornstarch , and beat
the two mixtures together. Heat the
rest of the milk In a milk boiler , and
when it comes to the boll add the egg
and cornstarch mixture. Cook for five
minutes , add the salt and the rest of
the sugar , remove from the flro and
lay the preparation , one spoonful at a
tlmo , upon the oranges In th < S dish.
Beat the whites of the eggs stiff , add
one tablespoonful of sugar , spread the
Icing on top of the pudding and brown
it delicately in the oven.
Setting the Pace.
The careful housekeeper whose heart
Is thoroughly In her work and whoso
aim it is to make her household run
on oiled wheels will soon discover
that It lies with her to set the pace
In energy , carefulness , tidiness and
punctuality.
The entire household , from the chil
dren to the servants , all take their cue
from the mistress. If she is lazy and
careless , her servants and her children
will bo quick enough to follow her ex.-
ample.
On the other hand If the mistress Is
tidy , quick to discover mistakes , care
ful and troubled over every detail of
domesticity , she will soon find that
her house works well , and that punc
tuality and order reign In place of
Blackness and careless methods. Gas-
Bell's Journal.
English Yorkshire Pudding.
One-half pound of flour , one pint
of milk , two eggs and a pinch of salt.
Beat the eggs and salt , add part of the
milk , then the flour and rest of the
milk. I like a fork the best to mix
with. I melt some butter or dripping
and put in my muflln pans and have
my pans hot. Put my batter in about
half full , and then everybody gets
( heir share of crust.
Worcestershire Sauce.
Add to ono quart of vinegar one-
half ounce cayenne pepper , two heads
garlic , chopped ; three anchovies ,
mashed ; two teaspoons ground cloves ,
three teaspoons of allspice , two blades
of mace , one-half teaspoon each cinna
mon and ginger. Let stand 21 hours.
Strain , add the juice of a lemon. Cork
and set aside for ten days. Pour In
a crock and eklm , bottle and seal.
With the Squabs.
For a sauce for fried squabs turn a
cupful of hot water flavored with beel
juice or a good stock Into the pan in
which the squaba are cooked , add sis
or eight button mushrooms cut in
pieces , jjepper and salt , and cook for
flvo minutes. Then season with o

Taft and Sherman.
There was but little doubt
about whom the Ohicago con-
volition would nominate for pres
ident , the question of who would
be the vice-presidential candi
date was an open question. As
was to be expected , Secretary
Taft. was nominated on the first
ballot to head the ticket. Upon
the nomination of tiie secretary ,
it was conceded that New York
was entitled to a place on the
ticket and Sherman was nomin-
a ted for the second place with
even less opposition than that
shown to Mr. Taft. As to the
head of the ticket , we will let
the President speak , lie has
been intimately acquainted with
Mr. Talt for years and is prob
ably better able to speak of his
qualifications for the presidency
than any other man. The Pres
ident says :
"I feel that the country is , in
deed , to be congratulated upon
the nomination ol Mr. Taft. I
have known him intimately for
many years , and I have a pecul
iar feeling1 lor him because
throughout that time we worked
for the same object , the same
purposes and ideas. I do not
believe there could be found in
all the country a man so well
fitted to be president , lie is not
only absolutely fearless , abso
lutely disinterested and upright ,
but he has the widest acquaint
ance with the nation's needs
without and within and the
broadest sympathies with all our
citizens.
"He would be as emphatically
a president of the plain people
as Lincoln , yet notLincolnhim
self would be freer from the least
taint of demagoguery , the least
tendency to arouse or appeal to
class hatred of any kind. He
has a peculiar and intimate
knowledgeof and sympathy with
the needs ol all our people of
the farmer , ot the wage worker.
of the business man , of the pro.
perty owner ,
"No matter what a man's oc
cupation or social position , no
matter what his creed , his color
or the section of the country
from which lie comes , if he is an
honest hard-working man , who
tries to do his duty toward his
neighbor and toward the coun
try , he can rest assured , that he
will have in Mr. Taft the most
upright of representatives and
the most tearless of champions ,
Mr. Talt stands against privi
lege and he stands pre-eminently
for the broad principles of Ame
rican citizenship which is at the
foundation of our national well ,
being. "
The name Sherman has been
prominent all through American
history. From the date of the
Colonial history until now it has
been prominently identified witii
our country's history.
Roger Sherman was a signer
of the Declaration of Independ
ence. The names of John Sher
man and William T. Sherman
are still fresh in the memories
of every American. Those who
know James S. Sherman , the
vice-presidential nominee , say
that he is a very able man and
arc confident that he will prove
a credit to the name. lie is a
very popular man in his state
and has had ten years experience
as congressman. Taft and Sher
man make a strong team and
are worthy of public confidence
and support.
