To make it ready lay it upon a board and poupd` it !ren end to end and on both sides with the po- tato beetle er a mallet. This done, sprinkle with salt and pepper light- ly and flour upon both sides, cov- ering the meat almost out of sight. Then put into the hot fat and cook quickly. Turn when half done.

His teat tubes, his mi - one, ilia elaborate analysis— all these, as exemplified in Sherlock Holmes, are repungnant to the professional thief catcher. If you wish to know the full weight of human scorn go to the pollee sta- tion sand sound the praises of the; "book detective." Nevertheless, there is something to be said for'. Sherlock's method, as even the of- ficial police in some parts of the world are beginning to admit. The. Irish government has been glad to avail itself ef the skill of Dr. E. J. Ife Weeaey, whose paper entitled, "Remarks on the Biological Method of Differentiating Bloodstains," recently awakened much interest in police circles in England. The expert has long been able to detect, with the aid of a microscope, the difference between blood stains and rust, paint or faded tobacco stains. He could tell also whether the blood was that of a mammalian or a nonmammalian animal, but his analysis stopped there. But Dr. McWeeney is able to determine with certainty the exact species from which a sample of blood is taken. And this discovery is regarded as of great importance in assisting the police ix1 their work of detecting and punishing those guilty of the most serious crime.. Is it fan- tastic to suppose that in time ana- lysis of the blood may reach so fine a point that it will be as much dreaded by criminals as the Ber- tillon system now is t s4 STANDARD OF ILLITERACY. Some StatisticsIssued by the Il. S. Bureau of Education. Only three persons out of 10,000 in Germany are unable to read or Write, while the proportion of illi- teracy in Great Britain is 150 . in 10,000, as against 770 in 10,000, in the United States. These figures' are based on a cam parison of illiteracy •among some; of the leading'. nations, ,which has just been made and, issued by the United States bureau of education. The figures for America include the entire population over ten years of age, while the German figures cover only the army recruits, and the British statistics are 'based on data drawn wholly from official marriage Y•egiaters. Bence' the German and. British otatisties deal only with adults and generally speaking with physically and inept ally normal adults, while;.

In this way a mild, steady light may be obtained all night from even a small piece of candle. Celery and lettuce may be kept fresh by standing the roots in cold water and throwing over them a damp cloth or dry manila paper. They should, before using, be wash- ed thoroughly, soaked in ice water and dried on a towel.

Every twenty-four hours there passes out through the pores of your skin about a quart of water, This "insensible perspiration" gees on in the body of every healthy man 'without his knowing it, This evaporation from the skin is nee-' essary in order that the body may remain at an even temperature, and able to resist sudden chills, severe cold or extreme heat. At the same time, a still greater amount of water is passing out of the body through the lunge and other or- gans. Now if you allow the body to part with all this water without supplying the loss, every tiny cell in the system is robbed of ite op- portunity to grow, and one of the many ailments due to poor cell growth is bound sooner or later to develop. Thus, the importance of drinking enough pure water to keep the tissues of the body supplied is at once apparent. Water taken in great quantities and at long intervals is not so bene- ficial to you as small amounts taken at frequent intervals. Nor does the large amount you drink after exer- cising or when perspiring in hot weather repair the loss from "in- sensible perspiration," for at such times you only quench your thirst, which is a hurried demand of the drying cells for nutriment due to the unusual loss of water. To keep in perfect health and to prevent the arteries from growing brittle in middle age, you should drink two or more glasses of pure, cool water every morning before eating breakfast. Between meals a glass or two should be taken. Do not Wait for thiret, but try to keep the moisture of the body at a per- fect balance. Do not drink ieed water at any time. Bad complexions and trou- blesome indigestion may often be traced to its habitual use. Youth's Companion. • Avoiding Eye Strain.

You have been told many oonflctixig things. You hiive been told the.t mein are on the whole very good, that they are friendly, generous, trustwor- thy, and that the joy of life lies in friendship and in oo-operation with your fellows. You have been told. that where mein do fall short of what they should be they are teach- able, that they can be reached and touched and chane ;ed and made right, and that the highest and happiest life work is in some way make men .better, and then to live and die, compassed about by their gratitude. On the other hand, you have heard an entirely different story. You have beard from many high sources that life is essentially tra- gic, that under all the shows of civilizatiow and religion, life is war, as releutlese as ever it was in the jungle, and that the hope of mak- ing soeiety really better is forever an illusion. The honorable Brutus, it is said, the noblest B.oreaau of them all, is never able to regener- ate Rome. He comes at Inst to his Philippi and is slain by the. eorrupt .society which he has sought to save, The generous Timon, they say, who lawehes:lus wealth upon those about him, always finds himself for, saken in his adversity, and can only turn upon mankind -with rage and curses. Prince Hamlet, we are told, finds always that the State of Denunaarh is Rotten, and can only ery, "Bow 'weary, flat, stale, and unprofitable seem. me all the uses of the weld." cording to thin tragic view of , Moses, the nation maker, who ads the people out of Egypt through the desert toward the Holy Land, is always stricken with de- spair, not by hie enemies but by the perversity and treachery of his own people, and is always forced to ery to God as Moses did for death as an escape from his intolerable burden, Now, in hearing and weighing these and other conflicting views as to what the truth is about human nature, it is surely worth while to bear and to weigh the view of Xlirn of whom it was said, "Be know what- was in maw." What did Ho see in us'? For one thing, Be saw the evil. No man haler ever saw it blacker. ISe. knew that there is in man lust and murder and treachery and a. cov- ering of hypocrisy. He knew no 1 phiI s phYwith which to take t1 es e things lightly. They were to Bile infinitely more dreadful than the lash or the crown of thorxns, The worst of them was disloyalty—the disloyalty of his friends. "He came unto his orrn and his own re-, ceived him not:,' He wept over Je- rusalem and said; "0 Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets and stonest them that are sent unto thee, how often would ,I have gathered. your children. to- gether even as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye would not." Be was betrayed by one of the twelve for honey, On the last night they all forsook him and fled. Axed one of them, that night, three tiincs denied that he knew his Master. If ever a man was justified in turning with tragic hopeiessneee away from the human race, it was Jesus of Nazareth. Why Did Ile Not Give US 1.7p1, The answer is, because lie knew what was in mato. Beeat►s0 under- neath the man of lust and murder and treachery Ho saw another man who.oannot be given up, He knew the passion of the prodigal, the pas - ion which led him from his father's house into every iniquity; but he also knew that in the prodigal there. was a deeper passion, whioh, awakened, would lead. him from among the seines back to the life where lie belonged. Ho- knew the disloyal cowardice of Peter, but He knew that below the cowardice and disloyalty there was a Peter who would stand like a rock in a storm. He looked oat from His cross upon the jeering multitude, symbol of the vaster multitude who forever jeer and crucify the good, and there He performed His supreme ruin, aaclp, Ile believed in them. He saw what was in them. lie saw through tho darkness and through the whirlwind of evil passion the real multitude, whose deepest law, whose deepest necessity is that they shall be loyal to each other and to their Father in heaven, My children, believe this 'man. Life is as tragic as He saw it. Life s,aas terrible as you will know. You may ,light 4$ the tigers do until your turn comes to perish. You may curse with Timon. You may de- spair with Hamlet. Or, with Jesus of Nazareth, you may find a place' within where there are neither stir- ses nor despair nor war, but ,whcre t- acre lives an unconquerable cour- agc for every circumstance' and for every task which can come to you before the going clown of the sun. —Dr. William Lowe 13yran. not, however, relieve eye strain that comes from astigmatism, reck- less disregard of the eyes or from glasses that do not suit the eyes. The Call of the home. (By Gertrude Mercia Wheelock.) The city charms with its pulse and throb, Its surging and seething crowds; And the heart is stirred by the mea- sured beat 01 its cerin iii long and loud; The charm is there of a life that thrills, With its throngs old, With its strife and er place In the markets gold. Eye strain is said to be largely a defect of civilization. To counter- act it children should be encour- aged to use their eyes at long range and older persons should so train themselves. A teacher who has a surprisingly small amount of eye strain among her pupils attributes it to her prac- tice of having the 'scholars' drop their work at the end of each hour and look out of the window. There is a'' contest over who sees furthest. This rests and . trains eyes and teaches observation. A woman who does find sowing for her Iivin found her eyes strained and weak. She was advis- ed to drop her sewing every half- hour alfhour 'and look for a minute into space.

Oh, I weary much of the busy mart, Of the quenchless thirst for gain, Of looking on at the toil and tears That are spent in the : field of fame; For . its winding ways are fraught with woe, And I shrink from the . ceaseless glare, From the crude harsh notes of its ruling tone That bids for the chaff and tare.
