A Substitute for Whipped Cream. â€" Sometimes one wishes to serve a dish that calls for whipped cream when neither the cream nor the time for whipping it are available. An excel- lent substitute is made by beating the white of an egg to a stiff froth, add- ing a ripe banana cut into very thin slices and beating until the banana is only a pulp evenly distributed through the egg. The result is a creamy deli- cacy that can be used in any recipe that calls for whipped cream. Turkish Kolls. â€" Pound one cup I An llDrehearsed Effect usual. Macaroni in Variety.

We were standing round a small fire, â€"wrote Arminius Vambery, the [ cUculating efficiency talking about it." The old clerk, in the faded black alpaca coat, with the quill pen be- hind his ear, stared at him. "I beg your pardon, sir. I don't think I heard what you said." Mr. Burton looked up impatiently. "I sha'n't require your services any longer. I have got no use for you • here, and, of course, I have got to ' consider the business." Business was business with Mr. Richard Burton.

The landlady of his lodgings might be sorry for him, but as for helping him, that was out of the question* And what was he to do? Ho walked aimlessly down Kings- way, staring vacantly into shop win- dows for ten minutes together, his poor old brain dazed and stunned. He was trying to think, trying to frame some plan of action; but his mind, ac- customed to tread one beaten path, refused now to deviate from its famil- iar track. He had wandered heedlessly into the Strand, and suddenly somebody bumped against him, sending him back against the window of a shop. "Beg your pardon, Mr. Milestones," said a cheery voice, "but you shouldn't | start playing blind-man's buff in the middle of London!" Mr. Newcome found himself star- ing stupidly at a smiling vision in furs. "I'm sorry, madam, but you ore mistaken," he stammered. "I'm not Mr. Milestones; my name is New- come!" He saw a pair of dancing eyes and a flashing gleam of white teeth be- tween red, divinely-curved lips, and then to his amazement this gorgeous creature started forward and caught his arm. "Newcome!" she exclaimed. "Sure- ly I can't be mistaken; it must be Uncle Charley! Why, I remember you perfectly now. You haven't chanked a bit â€" exactly the same kind, dear old I'm-looking-for-something- but-I-shall-never-ftnd-it face that I used to know as a kiddie." "Mary!" he gasped. "You don't mean to say that you arc Mary?" She laughed, but there was some- thing more than laughter in the sound. She was smiling sweetly, but there was a mist in her dark eyes. "You must come and see the show, Uncle Charley," she said. "I've got to hustle now, or I'll be late. And afterwards you shall have supper with me." Charles Newcomo presently found himself sitting in the stalls of a trea- tre with no clear conception of how he got there. There were a lot of superbly dressed people â€" gentlemen in evening-dress, almost as splendid as old Mr. Malcolm, who represented for him tho highest standard of taste and luxury. Then the curtain went up, the band played, and he became conscious of a sudden roar of applause in the house, and there, to his utter astonishment, in the middle of the stage stood Mary â€" his little niece Mary 1 Ho leant forward in his seat in open-mouthed wonder. And gradual pouring out into Mary's whole story of his gnriefs. "Ner you mind, you thing!" Mary answered, you rested.

But, I say, I should like to know | who this particular beast was who 1 turned you off like that." | "Mr. Richard Burton," he answered. \ "What!" she exclaimed, with a start. "Mr. Richard Burton, of Mer- ioneth Place, Hyde Park?" He nodded. "Right!" she cried, springing to her feet. "Well, you sit tight, Uncle ^ Charley, and you'll see some fun. Here, you, come here!" j She addressed the last remark to] the liveried flunkey who had just en-, tered the room. j "You can go and tell that gentle- man that I'll see him after all. Bring 1 him here. I've got a little surprise for him!" I She sat down again, picking up the bouquet of red roses as she did so, her eyes on the door. Presently it opened, and a man in evening-dress entered the room with a smirk of sat- , isfaction. Mr. Newcome looked up; then the spoon that he held dropped from his hand. The man was Mr. ^ Richard Burton. 1 "Hello! How do you do?" Mary] said. "I thought I'd just like to see you. You know my uncle, I think." Mr. Burton turned, and the old clerk and his late employer stared blankly! at one another. I "Mr. Newcome! Really, I'd no idea he was your uncle, Miss Burnelle.j Most interesting!" "Thought it would surprise you,"| Mary said brightly. "And I've got something else that will make you fizz a bit. See these flowers you sent me?" j He looked at them, smiling, waiting â-  to receive his reward of thanks. Mary picked up the bouquet, and, rising with easy grace, walked up to him, and struck him across the face. I "That's just to show you what Ij think of your flowers and you!" she cried. "You turned that poor old 1 man out of his job, did you? You hadn't any more use for him, hadn't you ? That he was faithful and loyal didn't matter. He was just an old.j worn-out machine, and you scrapped! him, you cold-hearted brute!" ] She punctuated her remarks with blows. Mr. Richard Burton backed towards the door, his face scratched and bleeding where the wire that held together the bouquet had torn the skin. "You cad!" Mary went on. "There, take your flowers, and never let mei see your face again!" | She flung the ruins of the bouquet I after him as he fled through the door. ! Then, turning, she ran to her uncle,' and put her arms round his neck. Her cheek was close to his, and he feltj that tears were pouring from heri eyes. ' "I'm only crying because I feel so happy with myself," she said. "That's the best unrehearsed part I have ever played. And I won't let anyone be cruel to you ever again.

HISTORY OF GREAT STRUGGLE. Photographing the War on the Fight- ing Line. One of the French soldiers killed at the taking of Metzeral, in Alsace, be- longed to a branch of the army ser- vice, organized 10 months of war, called the "photographic section," which is now officially photographing the war. Its role is artistic, histori- cal and educational. Although the staff is military, it also is serving the Foreign Office and tho Department of Public Instruction. General Joffre, Messieurs Millerand, Minister of War; Delcasse, Minister of F'oroign Affairs, and Sarraul, Min- ister of Public Instruction, aided by tho Committee of Foreign Affairs of the Chamber of Deputies and the For- eign Office, collaborated in its organ- ization. Tho operators are all mobi- li/.od mon, and, as at Metzeral, are on the fighting lino taking pictures, which, with orders, reports, plans and other documents, will hereafter con- stitute the historical section of the General Staff. For tho fine arts section and the educational department it ia intended thus to muUe a complete collection of i photographs of destroyed or damaged public monuments of great artistic value, and in general to furnish a sort of illustrated annex to tho history of tho war for the instruction of future giMiorations. These official photographers during tho seven days' bombardment of Met- zeral took 3000 negatives.
