——A Breakfast Dish.—Housckeepers
have occasionally remnants of roasts
and other meats to- dispose of. It is
quite easy to make up remnants into
savory dishes. A favorite way of pre-
paringadish of. cold roast veal is as
follows: Chop tl e veal very fine; chop
a small onion and fry it a. delicate
brown 1n a saucepan with butter, then
add :1 half teaspoonful of flour, a little
stock, chopped parsley, pepper and
salt and then put in the minced veal.
Let this get very hot, but not too
brown. Have ready slices of nicely
browned toast, buttered, moistened
with :1. spoonful of boiling water and a
poached egg on each one. Heap on or
around the egg spoonfuls of the pre-
pared meat. This should be very hot.
It‘ IS nice for bree. .-:1 fast 01‘ tea. —-Prairie
Farmer.
—Lobster Cutlets—A boiled lobster.
Keep the fat and coral by themselves.
Chop the meat fine; rub it finer with a
wooden spoon; moisten it with a. tea-
spoon of melted butter, and cream
enough to make it all wet; add a hand-
ful of fine bread crumbs; season. with
mace, salt slid pepper, red and white.
Make it into shape, roll in egg and
cracker dust‘and boil in hot fat. Now“
make a. sauce of the green and white
fat with the coral rubbed very fine so
to give color, and smooth it with a tu-
blespoonful of butter; season with mace
and pepper. Have a gill of drawn but-
ter in a tin dish inside of apan of W ater, ‘
stir the lobster mixture into t 1e d1 :1an
butter, heat it hot, but do not let it
boil; add the juice of half a lemon
the last thing. Put the cutlets on 'a
a hot dish and pour the sauce over
them. This 13 pleasant to the eye and

FASHIONS IN COIFFURE.
Quaint, Simple Modes Becoming to Bounty,
but Trying to Plain “'omcn.
The world belongs to pretty women
and the fullness thereof is theirs, let
the wise ones argue as they will of in-
tellectual superiority and spiritual
beauty. To the v. omun w ith the fair-
ies’ gift all else
ularly' 1n the domain of drses It 1s for
the pretty woman that modes are made
and exquisite fabrics wrought. ‘5he
needs the consideration of the designer
much less than plainer woman, but she
receives it all the more in deplorably
unjust 1utio Pal ticulaily this season
does the plain woman feel bitterness
in her soul at being down iVed, through
no fault of her own, of her birth-right.
For every fashion now demands the
sweet and gentle type of beauty known
to the Amelias and Chorillas of a by-
gone day before higher education and
smartncss and swagger came in. ’l‘he
style of coifrfure 1110'. clout only 1‘. lio-
molu or one of ;‘.liss Muloch’ s lou-
voiced women could wear with becom-
ingncss, for the very latest- thing in hair
dressing, copied from the old-time
mode, has smooth and glossy tresses
combed trimly down on either side a
fine white parting, to be twisted in a
soft coil at the back. This style of
coiifure demands a. delicate, youthful
face, a. low, broad forehead, and an ex-
quisitely molded head. Another style,
much afiected by young,D o‘irls, is a mod-
ification of the 1820 style, with ring-lets
falling downeither side the face from
a parting, the hair‘ knotted high in, a.
pufl in the center. The expression to
be worn with this, coifc’ure should be
,, pinionatedness.
Still smarter and becoming to tho
full-fledged belle or youthful matron
is that coiifure in which the hair is
tossed back from the forehead to fall
in soft, careless curls at the side or in
a. single curl in the middle of the fore-
head. Some women of the dark, Spanish
type, with faultlessly regular features,
"dare attempt this style“ of coiifure with
‘no curls, and the smooth hair combed
back lightly to the twist. Handsome
women are distinguished, intellectual
women striking, with this sort of fram-
ing. The woman who isn’t so sure of
I herself and her beauty will part her
now dishonored bang a. little at the -
side, perhaps, and leave the soft fringe
to fall over her forehead, and the
petite style of woman, who has an
irregular sort of beauty, waves her
hair' m a. tangle of curls, that fall back
apparently in spite of her, to flutter
over her brow, while the sweet-faced
woman, with the small and pretty head
and not a great deal of time to think
of herself or her beauty'any way un-
consciously copies the Mrs. Cleveland
coiifure, the soft, wavy hair combed

Everyone kept on whittling, and the

apparently paid any attention to his.

words; they knew the story was c041-

“Went fishin’, ” he repeated.
purty good luck.”
' Still no one helped him out.
Afters. minute he said: “Yes, I had
'what you might call or’nary luck;
:Caught forty-seven pick’rel, and they
weighed nigh onto one hundred
pounds. ”
He shifted his cud back and picked
up a. fresh stick with the air of a. man
who has done his duty.
The tick of the clock was the only
noise heard 1n the store, except for an
occasional spat, as the dark circles be-
came better defined. But everyone
knew Seth Jones was going to speak.
He always prefaced his remarks by:
ohii‘tingone l mrthc other and cut
ting the end 0 his'stick short ofi.
. "Don’t hev t’ fish t’ ketch pick’rel,"
he said, slowly.
"How’s that, Seth?” asked a new-
comer. who didn't know the customs
of the place.
Seth looked surprised and pained at.
the interruption, but he continued: “I
was fishin’ t’other day, and the pick’rcl
.were so durned thick that one on ’cm
jumped plum into the boat.”
He looked at the first speaker pi’, “
£11eg and prepared a. fresh chew.
The man with the gray beard and
child-like gray eyes walked over to the
sugar barrel and helped himself. Then
he said: ' “Never got but one pick’rel
and speared him.”
He waited until he was sure the new
comer was not going to interrupt him
and then went on: “I was spearin’
t’other night on the creek, 311’ right
ahead saw a. bullhead ’s long’s——-"
and he measured off a foot or two on
the counter. “I made a. drive athim
hard, for he was swimmin’ fast. I hit
him plum in the middle, but I didn‘t
get him.”
Seth Jones moved uneasily on his
and the 0 there involuntarily
“No, sir,” the speaker went on. “But
when I pulled my spear up I had the
biggest pick’rel I ever see. He must
hev weighed somethin’ less ’n :1 ton.
Y’ see,” he added “my spear was so
she rp it cut that bullhead right in two
an’ the pick ’rcl happened to be SW 11n-
min’ under him.”
He walked back
counter, and for
one said a. word.
But Hi Walker was thinking. He
showed it plainly, and the rest waited
for him to speak, 9
“Did y’ ever ketch two fish on one
hook?” he asked, finally. .
No one answered, and he went on:
“I never did but once. I'was out with‘
that city dude as was up here the sum-
mer Seth Jones’ gray mare died 0’
lockjaw, an’ we hadn’t had any luck to
speak on all day long. But just afore
it was pitch dark he got on a. big bass
as it turned out t’ be. I thought he
would bust his whipper-snapper pole
sure, but finally he got him up t’ the
boat an’ told mo 13’ put the not under
him. I felt around in the dark, 11nd.
purty soon I see two of the biggest fish
as ever grew in L-s‘naky Lake. I lifted
’em into the boat after a bit, an’ 1
thought the dude would jump out ’11 it
he was so tickled. Fact, ho had only
one hook 311’ there were the to 0 fish."
Seth Jones left the store “ll? thoul
waiting for the enplanation.
“I reckon— that second fish must hev
been swimmin’ along side 0’ t’othcr
an’ I just scooped him in,” the speaker
added, and then he said he must be
going.
A dark-l: ah zed man wit‘ 1 black eyes
and a coat tl‘ at was new only two
years ago In 10. been sitting‘ m a. corner
without entering 111 to the conversation.
“You fellers hev told some pretty fair
fish yarns, ’ he said, “an’ you’ re wcl-
come to all the fish you can ketch. But
when it comes to huntin', I know :1
thing 01‘ two.
No one had ever hcmd Bill Perkins
tell a story, and they listened half in
suspense, partly in doubt.
“Th’ other fall I was down shootin’
on the flats,” he said. “Three big,
black duck flew by me, an’ I let ’em
have the right barrel. Two on ’em
dropped, and I pulled t‘other trigger
but the cap snapped. I throw the gun
down to fix it, when bang! it went 01f
an’ dumed near knockcdb me down. I
looked around for the other duck, but
couldn’t see him nowhere, but when
I went to-pick up the first two I found
him in the grass. When that gun went

A bashful youth of some twenty sum«
more was paying his addresses to a
young lady who had long since de-
spaired of bringing things to a crisis.
One night he called. and they satin the
gloaming, their hearts pulsating with
the tender passion After settling the
merits of the weather the girl looked
shyly into the face of her timid lover
and exclaimed.
“I dreamed of you last night, John.”
“Did you? Why now!” “
“Yes. I dreamed that you kissed me."
“Why. now, whatdia you dream your
