Things to be Borne in Mind in Getting Ready for One,° A GALAXY _ OF " DON'TS," HE picnic season hep pasesd Its giory, but Ery it is yob with us. l;tnt"'c isz 'Dm spell has fallen ITL upon all aorta and oondltlone of matt- e kind, an the moot casual observation of trains and ferryboats and steamboat land- ings will effectually prove. The young and' the old, the sophisticated and the unsophisticated alike . plan outings. Memo- ' ries of last year's bakinge, broilin,;s and reaetingo, the cost of sunburn and tan that provoked a season of blisters Baud akin peeling and nocossibatod bathe of salerat:ue ,And buttermilk and inunotione of cold °roam ; even the thought of the mesquite that biteth, the furzy worm that crawls in inconvenient places, the omnipresent hoptoad and the green ons ke have ail been relegated to the land where unpleasant things should dwell together undisturbed. Instead we are overwhelmed with thoughteoa� of green grass, emerald bladed and diamond tipped, that grows in bosky dells ; elm shaded, babbling brooks, and gliding craft on glassy lakes, and straightway are the guests invited and the baskets packed. Granted, however, that the menu is a vital feature some hlnts concerning it may be particularly timely. It may seem super- fluoue to say to the veteran picnicker, tLake a basket, but people have been known who substituted a paper box, with dasastrous roaulte to the °entente. Having secured a hamper, according to the size of the party, proceed to pack. Place a towel smoothly over the bottom and sides, then put in the sandwich boxes. Tho name of sandwich, like hashis hardly, a thing to conjure with, but a little care and ingenuity wall work wonders with the sandwich family. Chicken sandwiches are always appreciated at a picnic. They may be made of minced chicken, placed as usual between two very thin dices of but- tered bread, on which a criep lettuce leaf or water cress has been laid. Chicken jelly eandwiehss are also choice edibles. They will keep moist en the longest jeurn.ey and retain their delicate flavor. The chicken should be boileddintll the meat falls from the bones. After packing the pieces in a greened dish a package of gelatine dissolved in the chicken gravy should be poured over all. Proper seasoning should be added and the whole allowed to cool, when it can be eat in thin slices and treated after the usual fashion. Sandwiches made of minced ham and °bi.cken, flavored with nutmeg and pepper and melted butter, are delicious. So are brandied tongue sandwichee. To make these boil a beef tongue until tender, skin it and pub it in a saucepan, with half a cup of butter, two wineglassfule of port er brandy, a tablespoonful of made mustard and a dash of pepper. The tongue Fhonld remain until browned and be allowed to cool in the gravy. Orab sandwiches are another pleasing varlation. The crab ehould be minced finely and a teaepconful of chopped parsley and melted butter rubbed in. Three chopped hard boiled eggs should then be added and the whale epread thickly on the bread. Nar must the sardine sandwich be forgotten. Each sandwich should be wrapped in a piece of waxed paper and packed In boxes, which should be placed in the bottom of the hamper. Other things that go to make the inner joys of the picnic party, and whioh must find a place in the basket, are a sealed bottle of pickles, a can of sardines, same extra rolls or slices of bread, a pot of baked beans, crackers and cheese, plenty of fruit, a tin can filled with sugar, lemons and a quantity of green tea. Other things which moot go with the party are a tablecloth, seine paper napkins, an extra towel, some tumblers for the tea and lemonade, a email pitcher and sieve for the tea. The cold tea may be made by soaking the tea for an hour in cold water and then pouring it through the goys Leto the glasses. There are any number of hints in the shape ef don't that might be packed along with the other' things, and- which will add materially to the chances of en- joyment For example, don't mix up ya)ur guests. It's all very well for you to be the all round friend en °acasioae, but don't . make a picnic an occasion for bringing to- gether people who have reasons for not speaking as they pass by or who use their tongues only to say spiteful things to each other. Don't mho the picnic the opporbunlby for breaking In now shoes. The biggest, oldest pair of shoes in your collootien will be novo tee easy on the return trip ; besides, such thtnge as turned, strained, even sprained ankiee have been known as picnic incidents, and a new thee would have to be cub to get it off and would necessitate going home in shoeless state. 1!. Also don't make the picnio the occasion of showing off your °harming little bonnet and new mull gown. A thunder shower may send across the clearest blue sky any time, and mull dreseos and dainty bats have an alarming way of collapsing if wet. Be prepared, therefore, far rain or shine by wearing a big eunhab and a serge gown and shirt waist. These will not keep you in a fever of anxiety for fear they will get Boiled or spoiled. Also be reelgned to oome home looking like a broiled lobster and to being adorned with numerous soratohesand bites frons festive insects bent on n summer lark, just as you are in the gay sunshine. If you will follow all these directions with proper attention you will find them a potent recipe for extracting the swept from the bitter of the picnic form of recreation. At Another Time.

He hove to his ship. When the boat came alongside elle wan found to be the Flying Dutchman, Captain Gardiner, which left Shelbourne, N. S., June 191)h bound for Falmouth, England. She was only 15 feet long, or 20 feet over all. She carried a reale: ail and jib. She was covered over with canvas forward, while a diminutive deck bowie occupied the stern. The middle of the beat was so arranged that the nolo occupant filled the seat, his body preventing water from enter- ing the little craft. Captain Gardiner had a tale of woo to bell. He was token on board, while hie boat was tied along -nide. Ho was so stiff and sere that he could hardly walk. SAVED ETA LIFE LINE. He said he had encountered muoh rough weather ainoo leaving Sheiboarne. For six days he had been obliged to lay to, having used a sea anchor fer the purpose. When he saw that a gale was coming he tied ens end of a rope to his waist and the other to the boat. A heavy sea carried hint overboard, but by means of the rope he dragged himself on board. In doing so he caught hold of the baat's rudder and unshipped it, with the result that it woo loab. He was forced to use an oar in place of the rudder. A dog which he had taken as a companion was swept overboard and lost. His troubles inoltrded the upsetting of a kerosene stove, which set fire to his bag of clothes and a suit) cf oilskins, which he was obliged to throw overboard to save the boat from burning. Captain Crowley asked him why Inc had chosen to cross the Atlantic ie no frail a Graft. Gardiner said times were so hard in the United States that men could not gat wages sufficient to meet their demands, and therefore he had decided to do something to "make a name" for himself. Capt. Crowley tried to indium him to turn his boat adrlfb and come to New York on the Verajoan, but Gard:nor refused. "FAME OR MANSLAUGHTER." " It's fame or maeolanghter," he replied tragically.

" As to the musk, now," said the young man in search of information, " I dare say that the race of fragile but aromatic little deer from which musk is obtained must be nearly extinct by this time, is it not ? " " Well," replied the frank druggist, says the New York Scan, " not the fragile and aromatic little deer that furnishes the musk I sell. That fragile and aromatic Iittle deer isn't any nearer extinction now than he was when he first began to dive and burrow and that was 'way back in the prletine yearn.' " Why," exclaimed the young man in search of information, " the animal that supplies the musk of commerce lives among the palm -Diad hills of Central Aida, where piotureeque native hunters follow its tiny track, risking their lives and undergoing great toil and hardship to secure the tamest) infiniteslmel ego which envelope the precious perfume, and by painful journeys of miles and miles bearing it to the marts of trade, where it is sold for many times its weight in gold. Everybody knows that." d, Yes," replied the druggist, " I've heard of that. But the way I find the facts is different. The animal that supplies the muck of commerce around these parts lives largely in these luxuriant realms of bog and malaria known as the Jersey marshes, where the following of its trail is attended with no rick of life, no toil, no hardship, that I ever beard of. I never knew it to be attended with muoh of anything but a jug of rum and a long; handled spear. The hunters arepictureegeo, though. An old fur cap, a large chew of tobacco oozing over an unprotesting red chin whisker, and a pair of gum boots filled with the lege of hickory overalls and a long, lank Jerseyman—that ought to pass for picturesquehadn't it ? But none of the hunters ever said anything to me about an infinitesimal sao enveloping precious perfume, nor even complained about having to journey many painfui miles and miles to reach the marts of trade, nor have I any recollection of their demanding many times its weight in gold for the preoloue perfume. Not any hunters that I ever dealt with. They just jumped aboard a ferry beat, landed on this side and hoofed it up hare, and, chucking on the counter what they had to sell, said : "' There ye be, cap'n.

Those picturesque hunter° who risk their lives on aha trail of the musk deer in Central Asia mountains can do better by packing their grips and chasing the wily muskrat on the Jersey marshes. They might have to wear more clothes, but they'd get more musk and find a market right under their noses. Yes, my eon. The effete orient is no place for the musk hunter now- adays.
