"T like that," said Lady Bessy. "Vet I go to church and she doesn't. I wonder which of us is the better Christian of the two. In my opin- ion," cheerfully, "she is as bad an old woman as ever I met, and so you may tell her, with my love and a kiss." "Why doesn't she go to, church? Is she a Methodist?' asked Mr. Blair, who has devoured one straw, with the assistance of Miss Car- ton, and is now selecting a second. "T have so often told you. Be- carse she doesn't approve of Mr. Mardyke."' : "But there is another church ebout three miles from this; why not do her devotions there?"' Farquhar gave him a nudge and a warning glance, and Lady Bessy laughed. "What's the joke?' said Bobby. "My dear fellow, she could mur- der the rector of that rural parish," said Farquhar. He sank on the grass beside him. Miss Carton had flown after the trial of skill at the: first straw, and Miss Rosa Macken- zie had seen fit to follow her. '"Haven't you heard the story? Mr. Hartley, the rector of the neighbor- ing parish you mention, married a wife who was a connection of Miss Aylmer, senior. She died and left Mr. Hartley with fourteen children, or thereabouts, one or two more or less don't signify." "Not at all, not at all," said Mr. Blair, with feeling. "Just so. Well, Miss Aylmer thought she'd play my Lady Boun- tiful to these motherless babes and, indeed, to the rector himself, and was in and out of the house at all hours, seasonable or otherwise."' "Very much of the otherwise, I should say, from my fortunately slight knowledge of her," remarked Mr. Blair, mildly. "At ali events, it appears she worried the poor man almost into a fever, so that at last he was driven to seek some means of getting rid) of her and her sympathy. He de- cided on taking another wife, and caused the report of his intended second marriage to be largely cir- culated. Down came the irate spinster upon him with all sails set: 'Mr. Hartley!

Dr. Guelpa of Paris has made some interesting studies pertaining to the scalp and the hair which have led him to conclude that men are more frequently bald than women for three reasons. First of all, they wear hard, heavy hats; secondly, they cut their hair too short both in summer and winter, and in the third place men usually are greater eaters than women. Dr. Guelpa points out that the scalp can actually be compared to soil, says the London Evening Stan- dard, the hair to the vegetation springing from that soil. When the soil is poor and improperly looked after microbacilli attack it and lall off its vegetation. Similarly, if the scalp is not properly cared for the hair stops sprouting. Each hair consists of a canal, the root or matrix, and the sebum, an oily substance which supplies the hair with nourishment. Under nor- mal conditions thé sebum is.a liquid oil. In illness or if irritated or un- duly subjected to pressure the se- bum thickens, coagulates and forms hard little globules which choke up the matrix. The hair is shut off from its source of supply and with- ers. It will readily be seen that a heavy and hard hat is bound to ex- ert a deleterious pressure. Clip- ping the hair or wearing it very short leaves the hair at the mercy of atmospheric conditions, of cold, heat and dust. The sebum, like tea. Lemon Rice Pudding.--To one cupful of rice boiled soft in water, add one pint of cold milk, a piece of butter the size of an egg, the yolks of four eggs, and the grated rind of oné lemon. Mix, and bake one-half hour. Beat the whites of four eggs, and stir in one pint of sugar and the juice of one lemon. If the pudding is to be eaten by persons who like sweets, as much as half a cupful of sugar can be ad- ded. After the pudding is baked and cooled a little, pour this over it, and brown it in the oven. Serve cold. Oaten Pancakes.~-Put two cup- fuls of rolled oats into three cupfuls of boiling water ; cover and let stand for fifteen minutes. Add a salt- spoonful of salt, a tablespoonful of sugar, and, one by one, two un- beaten eggs. immediately fry the batter by the spoonful in butter. Should the pan- cakes not hold together when fry- ing, add a tablespoonful of flour to the batier. Serve as hot as pos- sible, with powdered sugar, or with a compote of fruit. Sugared sliced oranges may well be served with the pancakes. Stuffed Ham.--Select a newly cured ham, if possible. Boil it slowly until it is so thoroughly cooked that the bone can be re- all oily sub- the temperature is low, and while the long hair of women affords a protection that is ample against this condition, the short hair of men hair roots.

One authority, Gordon Cumming, made known the facet that at one time he thought he had found evidence in marks on the ground and that the bulls of one herd did stretch themselves out at full length for a few hours' rest at about midnight, but, says Harper's Weekly, he contended that the young and the cows always remain- ed on their feet.

A good block of ice should transparent, it should not hav white opaque core, containing bul bles, and the housekeeper who economical 'will make it a point buy only of dealers who sell he clear ice, The reason for this eco! omy is that the ice which is opaq will melt from three to five times as rapidly as the clear ice and will not give out as much cold. The rea. son is that the opaque ice is full of | air bubbles, and when the block : melted to this point the outside ai enters at all these cracks and bub- ble spaces and melting become rapid. The cause is usually due to the methods of manufacture. The b of all ice, of course, is that whic has been formed upon the surface of a lake or a river of pure water by the cold of winter. It will be found, after the crust of snowy ice has been removed, that down to the water level the ice is clear and pure. All the air bubbles have an © opportunity to escape into the u frozen water below. But manufac- tured ice, especially that which is made in the block fashion, has no- meaits of allowing the air bubbles -- to escape. : : The outside freezes first, and as it does so it forces the bubbles of air in and further in. But as therg is no means of escape they are forced to stay in, the block of ice cannot be solid, and water ensues Some ice has an interior almost a much pitted with holes as a sponge. -- Ice, however, is. not solid, but only nearly so, and in consequence, by heavy pressure exerted: for a considerable period of time, this block with-the air bubbles will be- come clear. Through the structure of the ice itself the air will make its way under continued pressure, and ice being only semi-solid, like pitch, will flow together.
