The recent rains in this vicinity are
regarded a very timely and favorable to
growing crops. A good deal of corn in

rains we have will insure the rapid
growth of this cereal. The weather has

in many places to an additional height
of from 2,000 to 4,000 feet. It is twenty-

TWO WAYS OF SERVING EGGS.
Changes from the Ordinary Methods'
of Preparing Them.
Eggs a la San Malo are a disguised
dish. Four hard-cooked eggs, four
slices of tomato seasoned with a little
salad oil- and tarragon vinegar, two
tablespoonfuls of butter, little lemon
Juice, some aspic Jelly, pinch of pep
per, fine watercress, chopped parsley
or chopped pistachio nuts, two tea
spoonfuls anchovy or caviare. Put
the yolks, butter, caviare? pepper and
lemon Juice in a mortar and pound
them until quite smooth. Put them
in a forcing bag with plain tube and
fill up the eggs.
Coat them with liquid aspic Jelly,
arrange on little sprigs of fine cress,
chopped parsley or chopped pistachios.
Recoat with more aspic. Dip the to
mato in hot water, remove skin, slice,
season with the salad oil and tarragon
vinegar, and lay them on a lace pa
per in an entree dish. Lay eggs on
top. Garnish with, small cress' and
chopped aspic Jelly.
Eggs a la Rossi are nearly as elaborate.-
Seven eggs, seven tablespoon
fuls of creamN four tablespoonfuls of
lean cooked chopped ham, two pickled
gherkins, salt and pepper, seven slices
of bread about one-half inch thick to
cut out seven cases about in inch in
diameter.
Stamp out the cases with a round
cutter. Remove the centers carefully
with a knife, so that a thin, hollow
case of bread remains. Dip each case
for a second in a little milk or brush
over with beaten egg, roll in fine bread
crumbs; fry them a golden color In
plenty of smoking hot fat. Drain them
on white paper.
Carefully break an egg into each of
the .cases. Put one tablespoonful of
cream on each egg, and a dust of salt
and pepper. Place the cases In a mod
erate oven and bake them until the
eggs are slightly set Put a little
chopped ham on the top of each egg,
and lay across each four strips of
gherkin. Serve at once, garnished
with fried parsley.
SECURE SUPPLY OF FRESH AIR.
Necessary Ventilators Can Be Put in
with Little Trouble.
Where steam-heat is installed, ac
cording to Suburban Life, ventilation
Is especially needed, for the absence of
flues and open fireplaces deprives the
Tooms of a constant source of pure
air,-and architects are often negligent
In supplying efficient substitutes for
them. When building a house, it is
very eaay to have at least one open
grating communicating with the out
side air placed at the highest possi
ble point in every room, with a flap,
if desired, to prevent this outlet be
coming an inlet; but, even when the
house is built without these necessary
ventilators, they can be easily made
with very little expense or trouble.
Perhaps the simplest method of pro
viding a constant inlet for a room is
to have a counterpart of the lower rail
of the sash-frame made, with upper
ana lower surfaces parallel. When
this is put in Its place and the win
dow shut down on It air comes in
readily at the Junction of the upper
and lower frames, and at a height
which prevents those sitting In the
room from feeling any draught

aCMINDS HIM OF HIS YOUTH.
Recollections Come to .Man at Sight
of a Grindstone.
"Down In our back yard," said the
man who boards, "is a reminder of
my boyhood, a survival of barefooted,
spindle-legged days. - Item, a grind
stone. " "There's a boy in our house who
turns that grindstone. Early and late
be is down there fooling with it He
doesn't have to turn it that is why he
Is so passionately fond of the exer
cise. If he had to turn it as I did
when a boy he could be Induced to ap
proach it only through the persuasive
application of a stick or the end of a
leather strap. The boy next door is
his partner In these grindstone stunts.
They sharpen knives. The next door
boy holds the knife while our boy
turns the crank. They have three dif
ferent 'knives to work on. Apparently
neither of these weapons is ever used
for -anything except grinding. They
are the sharpest knives I ever saw.
In the days when I turned a grind
stone I turned to some good purpose.
The men I turned for sharpened
scythes and axes and butcher's knives
and things, but none of those imple
ments ever got one-half so sharp as
the knives these boys own.
"Our boy and the boy next door get
a good deal of fun out of their grind
stone, but they miss many of the in
cidents that enlivened my own tus
sles with! that deadly machine. They
don't have anybody to cuff them on
the ear, for' instance, and growl: 'Hur
ry up, there, now. Turn fast till I put
an edge on this scythe. It is clouding
up, and we must get the rest of that
grass cut and dried before the rain
comes.' Or maybe it was the weight
of an ax I was laboring under. Un
consciously, or more likely conscious
ly, I slowed up a bit and fell to day
dreaming. But I didn't dream long.
A smart box on the near cheek and a
nod toward the woodpile brought me
to. 'No time "to dawdle,' said the
somebody who held the ax, and so I
limbered up and for the, space of a
minute or so put a touch of lightning
Into the revolutions 'of that stone
wheel.
"It was under such disadvantages
that my early acquaintance with a
grindstone flourished. These boys
know no such incentive to pegging
away at their everlasting grinding.
Their bouts with the grindstone are
mere play. Still, I am glad they have
it to play with.. You don't see many
grindstones in New York, and it does
a fellow good to brush up against
something that helped form his char
acter'." The Clossd Season.
A recently married West Philadel
phia girl was the innocent cause of
much amusement at a small dinner in
one of the down-town hotels recently,
says the Philadelphia Record. Her
: father-in-law, having been made god
father to the child of one of his busi
ness associates, wanted to give some
present to the infant in recognition
of the honor. Knowing that others in
tended bestowing mugs, spoons, eta,
he decided that he would go out of
this conventional line and give the
baby a carriage.
Being a very busy man, he commis
sioned his daughter-in-law to do the
buying, with Instructions to get a very
fine one. During a lull in the conver
sation at the dinner the father-in-law
said: "Bess, did you get that baby
carriage?" "Oh, J got you a beauty,
and only ten dollars," was the reply.
"You didn't get a good one for that
price," protested the father-in-law.
"Yes, I did," asserted the young lady;
"the salesman said they were re
duced because this wasn't the sea
son." Then she wondered why every
one laughed.
Anecdote of King Edward. .
The "Gaulols" relates the following
"anecdote delicieuse." Edward VII.,
while still prince of Wales, was ac
customed to take his morning walk
aldne In St James' park. One day he
noticed that he waa being followed
by two little boys, and turned round
to look at them. Although at first
much disconcerted, one of them
plucked up courage, and, taking off
his cap, said: "Your royal highness,
my little friend is French, and I have
just made a bet with him that you
are the heir to the throne of England."
The prince of Wales replied, smiling:
"You have won; but what was your
little friend's bet?" "He bet that
your royal highness was a Parisian."
"Oh, well, then," said the prince.
smiling, "he has also won."

LEND, ITSELF TO DAINTINESS IN
THE KITCHEN.
Check Gingham Ferhaae the Nearest
Approach fe the Ideal Material
Some Recipes Valuable to
the Average .Cook.
It IS true that many lecturers oa
cookery can cook a dinner on the plat
form without a spot appearing on their
white muslin aprons. But the average
home cook washes the dishes 'and
cleans the range herself and needs
something more substantial than the
demonstrator's apron. There ia much'
to be learned, however, from the lec
turer and her dainty ways, and light
aprons are always better than dark
prints, which invite slovenliness
through their ability to cover up its
presence. The worker is instinctively
more careful when she has on the
white apron. "
Check gingham makes the best
aprons for kitchen wear and a six-inch
ruffle across the lower edge will pro
tect the dress beneath by catching
anything that falls, and it keeps the
edge of the dress from contact with
the range. The fullness at the belt
should be brought well to the back, so
that the sides of the dress are cov
ered. It ia sometimes a good way to
make an apron in three sections, like
a front gore and two side strips. This
reduces the fullness at the waist but
carries the apron well round the skirt
The front gore of a skirt pattern will
serve aa a guide for the front of. the
apron, then attach the straight pieces
and gather these only.
It is well to have one long- sleeved
and square necked apron to slip on In
the emergency of being obliged to do
a little kitchen work in unsuitable
dress. Pattern designers offer a va
riety of aprons Intended for house
work wear, but most of them are too
fussy; they are as much to launder as
two plainly shaped ones, and generally
have pockete to catch on door knobs
and superfluous ruffles.
Potato Biscuit Mash three medium
sized boiled potatoes, add one beaten
egg, half a level teaspoon of salt and
one cup of milk. Sift one-half cup of
flour aad one-half cup of corn starch
together, with two level teaspoons of
baking powder and combine with the
potato mixture. '
Some more flour will be needed to
make a dough that can be rolled out
an inch thick. Cut in round cakes and
bake in a hot oven.
Squash Pies. For two pies use
three cups of canned or stewed and
sifted squash. In either case it should
I be dry and not soft and watery. Add
two cups of scalding hot milk, one cup
of sugar, a level teaspoon of salt one
half level teaspoon of cinnamon, and
two beaten eggs. Pour into deep
plates lined with pastry, or, if shallow
plates are used, make a scalloped
edge. Bake until the center puffs up.
Beefsteak Smothered In Onions.
Cook half a dozen onions cut in quar
ters In a cup of water until soft add a
teaspoon of flour, half a level teaspoon
of salt aad a little pepper; cook five
minutes, then add a rounding table
spoon of batter. Have a good steak
broiled and lay in the sauce pan with
the onions; cover and simmer five
minutes.
Cheese and Potato Scallop. Season
half a-dosen good sized hot mashed
potatoes with salt and at least a round
ing tablespoon of butter. Beat in half
a cup of grated cheese aad turn into a
buttered baking dish. Grate a good
layer of cheese over the top and set
ia a hot oven long enough to heat
through and brown the cheese.
Raised Cake. Cream one and one
half cups of sugar and one-half cup of
butter together, add one beaten egg.
a few gratings of nutmeg, half of the,
grated yellow rind and half the Juice
of a lemon, add two cups of raised
bread dough after it has risen light
Dissolve half a level teaspoon of soda
in a tablespoon of milk and work all
together until smooth, adding a very
little more flour to make a cake bat
ter. Put iato two buttered cake pans,
cover with a cloth, and let rise 'until
light This will take more time than
would be allowed for bread on account
of the batter and sugar. Bake in a
moderate oven.
Almond Macaroon Tartlets. One
cup milk, one level tablespoon corn
starch, yolks two eggs, two level table
spoons sugar, few grains salt, six
macaroons pounded fine, one teaspoon
almond extract, whites two eggs, two
level tablespoons sifted powdered
sugar, one-half cup blanched and fine
ly chopped almonds, six tartlet cases.
Scald the milk in double boiler.
When hot add cornstarch diluted with
a little cold milk. Stir until thick
ened; cover and cook for 15 minutes;
then add the egg yolks beaten and
mixed with the sugar and salt Cook,
stirring constantly until the mixture
thickens. then remove from the fire;
add the macaroons and extract and fill
the tartlet cases. Beat the whites of
the eggs very stiff and beat In grad

Fifth Generation to See the Light in
the Old Home.
Bora la the house of his great-greatgrandfather
and rocked hi the cradle
that luUed his great-great-grandfather
to aleep away back In old Connecticut
before the beginning of the last cen
tury, la the patriciaa beginning of
wee Edward Griswold McCulIough,
who made his appearance oa earth
Suaday la the old Griswold laa at
WcrtkiagtOBv He la the aoa of Ed-
ward Miles McCullbug says the Co
lumbus Dispatch. i
In all the romance of oM Worthiag
ton there ia ao greater halo thaa that
which hangs over the Griswold iaa. It
was built hi 1806 by Ezra GrlawoM,
who came from Connecticut with the
pioneers who settled much of the
western reserve and central Ohio. The
family was an old one even for old
Connecticut and Ezra Griswold was a
sturdy representative of it He
brought this family into the "great
west" with him and his son, George
Griswold. was reared in the inn. He
was eight years old whea his father
brought him to Ohio.
George Griswold. in turn, laherited
the duty of perpetuating the name,
and when his father died he fell heir
to the inn property and lived through
out his life where his father had build
ed so well. His son was Worthingtoa
Franklin Griswold, who, as his father
had done, inherited the inn and lived
in it To him and his good wife was
born a daughter Harriet, who was
reared in the home of the family, and
who continued to live there when she
became Mrs. McCulIough.
Now she Is the happy mother of a
son and she is rocking him In the
.Griswold cradle that was brought to
Ohio along with other household pos
sessions by Ezra Griswold when he
drove his ox team overland from
Connecticut in 1S06. No one knows
how long the unique heirloom had
been in the Griswold family before
that time, but it Is supposed that
Ezra Griswold was himself rocked In
it when he was a baby long before
revolutionary times.
When little Edward Griswold Mc
Cullougn is baptized he will wear a
little white dress that was made for
the baptismal ceremony of his grand
father, by his great-grandmother a
dress that has been handed down In
the family with great care and which
will be treasured more dearly than
ever when another epoch has been
noted in its history.
John Sharp Getting Busy.
"The fact Is." said John Sharp Wil
liams to a gentleman who had twice
ineffectually sought to gain his at
tention by calling him "senator," "I
haven't got accustomed to the title.
But I've begun to accustom myself to
the atmosphere of my field of labor
to be. To-day I went over to the sen
ate chamber, slipped into the 'cloak
room on the Democratic side, and
tried to feel at home."
"Did you tell a story?" was asked.
"No, I didn't"
"Well, you can't hope to rank as a
senator until you havesa cloakroom
story and it. has been printed."
".Well, I did borrow a cigar from a
new senator. Then I sauntered over
to the Republican side as carelessly
as I could, took a seat alongside a
brand new senator there, almost as
new as I will be, and chatted with him
with as much of an air to the manner
born as1 my perturbed condition
would permit From time to time I
shall repeat the visit, in the hope
that I shall be able to fully accustom
myself to the change when it comes."

Shalt We Put "Swank" on tin List?
Every now and then we hear used
the wordr"swank," a'nd it must be ap
propriately, tor it seems to match the
situation. But few there are who un
derstand its precise meaning. The
London Globe, however, comes to
their relief, for it says that "swank" is
called bluff by Americans, and until
some genius presented the British na
tion with the other word "bluff" suf
ficed. "Swanking is the gentlest of
all arts. It relies for its success al
most entirely on amiability of de
meanor. A map may smile and smile,
and be a swanker. In fact, he has
got to. If he is not cheerful and at
tractive, he, cannot swank, for the
swankee, repelled, edges away, thus
rendering his swanking null and void.
It is the wide, cheery smile, the
hearty back slap, and the general ac
quiescence that makes the swanker."
Is it worth while admitting the word
to the vocabulary?
Cream Patties.
Remove the cover from a teakettle
containing fresh boiling water and re
place with a china or crockery bowl.
When the bowl Is warm place in it a
piece of butter the size of a hickory
nut and when melted add to it three
or four tablespoons of boiling water.
Then add gradually, taking care to
stir all the time to avoid lumps,
enough confectioner's sugar to make
a mass of the consistency of thick
cream. Let It rest without stirring
until when the spoon is moved the
surface seems to crack. Flavor to
suit taste, either lemon, wintergreen,
or chocolate and vanilla.
Drop from a teaspoon on butter or
paraffin paper. Delicious and creamy.
