LAST CHANCE
HELPHAND, Agent.
ON BUSINESS BASIS
WISDOM OF KEEPING KITCHEN
ACCOUNT BOOK.
With Absolute Knowledge of Running
Expensee Economy Is Made Easy
Hired Help Always Prone
to Extravagance.
The head of the household some
times concludes that it costs too much
to live, and when he makes this deci
sion nothing commands his respect
like an account book wherein bal
ances are made without accommodating
"sundries." In fact going to market
and keeping household accounts are
the housekeeper's weapons of self-defense
against the charge of extrava
gance, writes Alice E. Whltaaer.
It is comparatively eaay to account
for rent, -fuel, light and wages, and
even the larger bills for clothing can
be fairly well itemised from receipted
bills and memory. Therefore the
most common point of attack la the
food supply. The mistress of the
household may Insist that nothing la
wasted and that the family would not
be satisfied with cheaper food, bat un
less she can keep an account book ahe
has nothing to prove that ahe could
not have spent less for food material.
A housekeeper frequently says to
herself: "It seems to me that we are
buying m butter every other day," or
"I'm sure that we are using a dozen
eggs a day." If she has an account
book she can prove the truth of her
surmises or otherwise. - One house
keeper annoyed at the recurring calls
for coffee and butter for her family
ot three sat down to her account book
and in five minutes found that aix
pounds of coffee and ten pounds of
butter had been used during the pre
vious month. She immediately cut
two pounds from the future coffee sup
ply aad cautioned against extrava
gance in butter.
Another way of saving is buying In
small amounts. Our grandmothers
extalled the plan of buying in a whole
sale way because wholesale prices are
less than retail, but our grandmothers
had a constant oversight over the use
of both groceries and provisions, and
this is now frequently impossible. In
most kitchens to-day everything that
is brought in will be cooked by the
servants at one time and the surplus
thrown away. Therefore if a pound
of 30-cent steak is enough It is -wasteful
to buy iyx pound, or a quart of
oysters when a pint will be sufficient,
under the delusion that the left overs
will be used to advantage.
It is wise to dispense with the order
clerk at the door, and especially with
liberty given to servants to order as
they please. Often from ignorance,
and as often from mere lack of in
terest, they order needless things. Go
to the grocery stores and markets,
see what you can buy, and how much
it costs. This means a little effort,
but it soon becomes a habit and a
pleasure. Many housekeepers will
testify that it is not so hard to think
what to buy when in the presence of
the various good things, some of which
on that particular morning can be
bought at an advantage.
It is not unlikely that there will be
a premeditated block to this system
of looking closely after the table sup
plies, and In the middle of the after
noon the cook may announce that ahe
has no" baking powder or that ahe
must have some more eggs. Then is
the time to be firm and to change the
menu, or, If .anything be imperative,
to go for it yourself. After a time it
will be understood that there Is to be
no mora reckless and indiscriminate
ordering.
To Renovate Furniture.
There are many ways of renovftlng
old furniture, but one of the best
methods is the alternate use of sand
paper and varnish. First remove every
particle of dust, dirt and old cracked
Tarnish from the piece of furniture to
be treated, getting right down to the
bare wood. To aid In this work a
cabinet scraper or glass win be neces.

to a smooth surface. At least fout
coats of finishing varnish will be re
quired, and after each has become
thoroughly dry rub lightly with fine
sandpaper. After the last coat of var
nish has dried for two days rub boiled
linseed oil on the treated surfaces
with a soft cloth. Country Life in
America. .
Bake Meat in Tissue Paper. -For
roasting mutton, veal or turkey
prepare the usual way with pepper
and salt, then spread a thin layer of
butter over the top and sides and
wrap in a double thickness of tissue
paper and roast in a double roasting
pan. Put a cupful of water in bot
tom of pan and keep adding as it boils
away. Do not turn meat or stick a
fork into It It needs no basting
Meat prepared in this way will be a
beautiful brown color, tender, and
most palatable.
Pudding auce.
To make the sauce beat together
one tablespoonful cornstarch, twe
tablespoonfuls of butter and one-half
cup of brown sugar. Set on the stove
until heated, then turn in hot water
a little at a time, and cook until the
consistency required. Add four table
spoonfuls grape or apple jelly; with
spices or flavoring to taste, and serve

Take buckwheat flour and apply to
spots on carpet. Let it remain for a

Essential to" Good Slaw.
The first essential of good slaw is
the cabbage itself, which must be well
bleached and solid. Then it must be
' finely shredded and crisped by allow
ing it to stand in ice cold water. Be
fore serving drain off the water, pour
over the dressing and toss up lightly
with a fork. The best dressing for
slaw is made with the yolks of four
eggs beaten smooth; add, in turn, and
mixing well, two teaspoonfuls each of
salt, pepper and mustard, a little
cayenne, and one-fourth cupful of
sweet cream. Bring three-fourths of
a pint of best vinegar to the boiling
point; add one cupful of butter, and
stir until mixed with the vinegar;
then pour over the egg mixture and
beat thoroughly. Allow this to get
cold before using.

Simple Cleaning Process.
Many of us embroider linen or lawn
shirt waists, or linen center pieces and
doilies, for our friends. uMany of us,
too, though naturally neat, will find
our work soiled before it is finished.
But if one desires to make up the ma
terial or give it to a friend without
washing, it may be made perfectly
clean by sprinkling thickly with
French chalk and rolling upufor a few
days. The chalk may then be easily
shaken out, and an immaculate gift
presented without destroying the
original finish of the fabric I know
from experience that this is as effica
cious as it is simple. Harper's Bazar.
Baked Salt Cod.
Soak salt codfish several hours in
plenty of cold water, put into cold
water, and simmer genUy about 15
minutes. Pick into fine shreds and
add the same amount of mashed po
tatoes. To one quart of the mixture
add two rounding tablespoons of but
ter, one beaten egg, and hot. milk to
moisten. Put Into festtered baking
dish, brush over with soft batter,
dredge lightly with flour, and bake un
til brown on top. Serve with a sauce
made from two level tablespoons of
flour; four of butter, one cup of milk,
and salt and pepper to season. Add a
hard boiled egg chopped coarsely and
heat well, then serve.

MAKE CITY STRONG
JAPANESE SEEK TO RENDER
PORT ARTHUR IMPREGNABLE.
Defenses Being Racanstrjucteal on a
New Plan and the Town la Prac
tically Given Over to the Mil
itary Authorities.
In view ot the renewed interest' in
Port Arthur by the recent condemna
tion of Gen. Stoessel, it may be inter
esting to translate from the Voice of
Moscow portions of the article of a
Russian correspondent in that great
Japanese fortress, who seems to be
particularly observant, says the New
York Sun. "
He says that Port Arthur and Dalny
have changed very much since the
war. Under Russian rule Port Arthur
was an international town, full of life,
and after the Japanese came into pos
session of it it promised to be even
livelier than ever. The roads were re
paired, the quays renewed, the water
supply improved, Japanese and Chi
nese merchants began to establish
themselves in the town and business
-houses began to be built
But suddenly something happened.
All at once Port Arthur became a
city of the dead. Business men quietly
abandoned their shops, builders left
their uncompleted buildings, and from
that time up to the present no private
individual 'has begun any new build
ing in Port Arthur. The great sup
plies of provisions and other goods
were sent back to, Japan or into other
parts of Manchuria. But none except
the Japanese knew what was the word
that had gone forth.
The whole fortress is being recon
structed on a new and unknown plan.
The fortifications are being extended
beyond their old limits and the la
borers and overseers are selected
with the greatest care.
The old redoubts are not destroyed,
but all useful material in them has
been moved to other sites. In the con
struction of the fortifications great at
tention has been paid to the selection
of the best positions whence a plung
ing fire can be concentrated on the
passage through the hills in front and
in order to attain this end constant
practice firing is carried on.
The landward side is protected by
long-range guns mounted in excellent
forts. At one point alone there are
120 guns. On the seaward side rows
of guns are visible many of these
guns were taken from the Russians.
Trial firing is carried on more and
more frequently at night with the help
of reflectors and to assist the gun
ners a whole series of signal stations
has been erected on the hills. At the
bottom of both harbors and out along
the seacoast up to a distance of two
miles from the fortress some sort of
work is being carried on; perhaps
mines are being laid.
All the way to Mukden strategic po
sitions are being selected and pre
pared and strategic roads are being
run through the mountains.
As for Dalny, It is strongly fortified
on the landward side, the entire en
virons of the village of Loukku having
been converted into fortress positions
and guns have been mounted there.
On the seaward 'side Dalny is more
weakly fortified, but on the whole it is
very much more strongly defended
than when the Russians were In poses
sion of it
The enormous barracks In Port Ar
thur and Dalny are full of troops and
great stores of grain, fodder, beans,
etc., have been collected. There has
lately appeared In Dalny a peculiar
four-wheeled cast-iron platform for
carrying field guns of the largest cal
iber. To the fortified points of Port Ar
thur and Dalny special railway branch
lines have been built from the main
railway.
Large parties of Japanese officers
come frequently from Japan to study
the ground, not only at Port Arthur
and Dalny, .but In Mukden and LI
aoyang. Lately many troops have
come and have all gone to Mukden.
Often Downed, Seldom Out
There is no other country in the
world In which the words "business
failure" mean so little as in America.
In the older and more cautious nations
of Europe, where all business is along
more conservative lines, the man who
falls Is usually "down and out." He
either blows out his brains or takes
to drink and makes himself a bore to
his friends telling about the days of
his prosperity. Europe is full of
"shabby genteel" persons who have
seen better days and who have not the
faintest idea of going to work to make
those days come back again. Such a
miserable exhibition of cowardice does
not appeal to the American. All the
American business man asks is good
health and a fair field, and he will
consider failure a mere Incident that
gives one valuable experience to be
utilized in the failure. The man who
is bowled over to-day Is up and on his
feet and v in the center of the strug
gling throng to-morrow.
To Keep Him in Trim.
"I visited the tome of Sankold, the
celebrated contortionist, the other day,
and I must say he has installed one
very peculiar feature."
"And what might that be?"
"He has his bed built in the form

"So Gladys thinks she has a career
In ministering to suffering humanity."
"Yes, and she keeps the thought so

New Potatoes in England.
Quite the most delicious way of
cooking new potatoes Is to place them
hi, boiling water with two or three
sprigs of fresh mint When the pota
toes have been cooked and drained, s
little melted bntter should be poured
over them. The mint adds a most del
lcate, bat not at an on abtruslve

potatoes, the English cook removes
the skins by rnbbing them very 'hard
with an extremely sti brush. This

RACE AGAINST TIME
TROOPER LOST OPPORTUNITY BY
NARROW MARGIN.
William Kerr One of the Britiah Sol
diers Who Reached Fatal Spot
- Just To Late to Save
Prince Imperial.
Digging in a mine in Joplln is Wil
liam Kerr, who narrowly escaped be
coming famous. He ran a' race against
time and failed, says the Kansas City
Journal.
For years Kerr waa a resident of
Kansas City, but it was not until a
short time ago, just when he was on
the point of taking his departure for
the zinc fields, that he divulged his
history. Day after day, seven years,
for one plumbing firm alone, he had
dug. Neither did that concern care to
part with his services, for Kerr, more
generally known as "Scotty," was a
valuable man in his way.
New pointers in the art of digging
trenches came to Kansas City with
Kerr. His was none of the slow shov
eling which usually obtains. When he
went Into a trench the dirt flew in a
constant stream. He had a peculiar
manner of handling the shovel which
brought three times as much work in
a day aa the average digger could de
liver. Of course, this ability brought
hie extra wages, but even at that he
was a valuable man. No doubt he will
make good in the mines.
But this story is to tell of the race
made. by Kerr as a British trooper on
his good mount, the goal being fame.
The opponent was Father Time, boast
ing of no other conveyance than an
hour glass and scythe. Yet Kerr and
the horse lost
France was not safe for a Bona
parte after the Prussian invasion and
the commune. Napoleon III., dying
heart-broken in 1873, left little but
his son. a delicate youth of 17. In
England this lad attended Woolwich,
the famous military school, fitting him
self out to become, when times should
be better, a reigning Louis Napoleon.
School life and inaction palled when
in 1879 came the chance which he had
hoped for. England was at war with
the Zulus. Grudging permission was
granted the young prince to go to the
front, but not as a combatant He
was to be treated more as an observer
aad -as a guest of the English nation.
So read the instructions to Gen. New
dlgate, commanding a column.
When there was chance to do some
scouting with a small party the prince
Imperial, aa he is known to history,
went along., Apparently the venture
was destined to be harmless. In fact,
the party had dismounted for rest
when a band of savage Zulus rushed
upon the soldiers.
Those who managed to reach their
horses In safety escaped. The prince
might have escaped also had not his
horse became unmanageable. He was
thrown and was killed by the -Zulus.
The troopers as they fled were joined
by the riderless horse. Shortly, too,
as they fled they were met by a re
lief party sent aa soon aa the prince's
absence was discovered. These troop
ers of the relief spurred back to the
place where the fight had occurred. In
this party was. Kerr. Spur as they
would, death outstripped them. When
they came upon the scene of the con
flict the last of the Napoleons was
past aid. Kerr himself tells how an
hour or two might have altered every
thing. An examination of the place of am
bush revealed the-body of him who by
the imperialists of France was termed
Napoleon IV. The Zulus had stripped
it of everything save the famous amu
let of Charlemagne suspended by a
chain around his throat
So the thanks of France were not
for William Kerr, once trooper for her
majesty. The man whom fame passed
by is digging zinc ore in Joplln.
How to Get Poorer Quicker.
We hear a great deal about get-rich-quick
schemes, but if you want to get

are all bad. but most of them are not
good.
Some time ago a New York man
discharged a valuable employe be
cause he played the races. When
asked if he thought gambling wrong,
he said:
"It isn't so much that; but I am
.convinced that a man who would
make the loose, one-sided contract re
quired by a bookmaker is not compe

TWO RECIPES FOR' EGGS.
Beauregard and Japanese Are Both
Recommended Dishes.
Beauregard Eggs. Hard boil five
eggs. Remove the shells; separate
the whites from the yolks. Put- the
yolks through a sieve; chop the whites
fine or put them through a vegetable
press. Rub a tablespoon of butter
and one of flour together; add half a
pint of milk and stir until boiling;
add half a teaspoonful of salt, a salt
spoon of pepper, and the whites of the
eggs. Stand this over hot water while
you toast, five slices of bread. Ar
range them neatly -on a platter. Pour
over the white mixture, dust over this
the yolks and a little salt and pepper.
Stand a moment at the oven door and
after the yolks are warm send to the
table.
Japanese Eggs. Hard boil six eggs
and boll carefully one cup of washed
rice. When the rice is done drain in
a colander and stand in the oven to
dry. Remove the shells and cut the
eggs into halves crosswise; take out
the yolks; rub thin, adding gradually
four boneless sardines, half a tea
spoonful of salt, a saltspoonful of pep
per, and two tablespoonfuls of melted
butter or olive oil. Roll the mixture
into balls and put into the space from
which the yolks are taken. Take off
a little of the convex end of the whites
so that they will stand. Put the rice
in the center of a platter, making it
flat, like a little plateau. Stand the
eggs down in "the rice; pour over them
half a pint of cream or tomato sauce
and serve.
Boiled Liver En Brochette.
Cut bacon and slices of liver into
pieces of the same length and width.
Run a wooden skewer or stout straw
through each piece of liver and alter
nately through a slice of bacon. Pro
ceed in this way until each slice of
bacon is fastened to a slice of liver,
and each skewer Is full. Lay on a
broiler and broil over a clear fire.
Renovate Brushes.
Camels hair and red sable brushes
which have become out of shape or
curled often are discarded as worth
less. Dip in boiling hot water and the
hair will resume its original shape.
