As each cake is done, lift it out with a fork and dash :t quickly into the beeline, water and out again. After frying onions, pour a little vinegar into the frying pan, let it get hot, and it will remove all smell from the pan. Public School Deport. The report off W. P.

If the results were not always conclusive, they nevertheless showed that at the bot- tom of it all there Is something real which is worthy of being studied. We eannot he fact ascribe to hazard so many • lucky coincidences, says Camille Flanamarign, the gr, at French astronomer, although that is the way In which ombarassing questions are sometimes solved. We must there- fore rr.®irt to systematic analysis and many( controversies will doubtless arise before everybody Is in agree- ment on the subject of the mysterious power of the rhabdomancers. It really seems very difficult to ex- plain the facts which were observed; such, for example, as these: In the Bois de 'Vincennes, diviners guided by their rodswere charged with discover- ing some dry subterranean cavities. They explored the ground and their helm of wood or metal wavered here and there. One of them, Mr. Pelatrat, announced tae existence of a cavity at sixty feet. The controllers examined the plan of the locality, and certified to the correctness of the fact. Next, Mr. Probst, king of the rhabdomancers, with his bamboo sceptre, discovered an invisible quarry, He showed its limits, indicated its depth, its width, its length . nd noted the presence .ot four pillars near three ancient wells. This was verified and found to be correct. Messrs, Probst and Perron succeed- ed 'fn recognizing . the contents of realed envelopes in which were in- closed pies. : of silver, lead., popper, aluminum and zinc. There its son}G thing that seems"to belong to sorcery, and, as in principle one has always a ,tendency to deny What one does not understand, more than one sceptic will mile on reading. the results of these experiments. Let no one forget that In the fifteenth century the art of printing was treated as magic and that Louis XI. was obliged to protect the printers against those who be- lieved them sorcerers, for no one imagined that writing could be repro- duced ail by itself and people sup- posed that :: was necessary for the devil to mix himself up vith it. To- day very many minds scarcely reason better.. in regard to the unknown forces- of nature, which they would like to imprison in a nutshell -or, to speak more exactly, in the restricted limit of present undefined theories. The experiments spoken of and the hypotheses which they suggest are very much older than is generally imagined. At the end of the seven- teenth century the 'famous Male- branche showed• these phenomena, at- tributing them to the devil and de. claring dogmatically that if the rod turned it should do so in everybody's hands. The discussion begun in 1689 was still current in 1693, the year in which saw the Abbe de Vatlemont demonstrate in .his "Physique Oc- cuite" that, all human persons not being endowed with the same nervous sensibility, there was nothing sur- prising in the fact that the emana- tions caused by subterranean waters should reveal themselves to certain temperati ents and not to others. t-. »hain Rooke Over Rim .of Barrel and.

The fruit swells to twice its former size, but should be drained from the water and dried in the oven before' being added to the other ingredients. Dip Doughnuts in Water SVhen frying doughnuts, it is a splendid scheme to have a disk of boiling water on the stove. As each cake is done, lift it out with a fork and dash :t quickly into the beeline, water and out again. After frying onions, pour a little vinegar into the frying pan, let it get hot, and it will remove all smell from the pan. Public School Deport. The report off W. P.

If the results were not always conclusive, they nevertheless showed that at the bot- tom of it all there Is something real which is worthy of being studied. We eannot he fact ascribe to hazard so many • lucky coincidences, says Camille Flanamarign, the gr, at French astronomer, although that is the way In which ombarassing questions are sometimes solved. We must there- fore rr.®irt to systematic analysis and many( controversies will doubtless arise before everybody Is in agree- ment on the subject of the mysterious power of the rhabdomancers. It really seems very difficult to ex- plain the facts which were observed; such, for example, as these: In the Bois de 'Vincennes, diviners guided by their rodswere charged with discover- ing some dry subterranean cavities. They explored the ground and their helm of wood or metal wavered here and there. One of them, Mr. Pelatrat, announced tae existence of a cavity at sixty feet. The controllers examined the plan of the locality, and certified to the correctness of the fact. Next, Mr. Probst, king of the rhabdomancers, with his bamboo sceptre, discovered an invisible quarry, He showed its limits, indicated its depth, its width, its length . nd noted the presence .ot four pillars near three ancient wells. This was verified and found to be correct. Messrs, Probst and Perron succeed- ed 'fn recognizing . the contents of realed envelopes in which were in- closed pies. : of silver, lead., popper, aluminum and zinc. There its son}G thing that seems"to belong to sorcery, and, as in principle one has always a ,tendency to deny What one does not understand, more than one sceptic will mile on reading. the results of these experiments. Let no one forget that In the fifteenth century the art of printing was treated as magic and that Louis XI. was obliged to protect the printers against those who be- lieved them sorcerers, for no one imagined that writing could be repro- duced ail by itself and people sup- posed that :: was necessary for the devil to mix himself up vith it. To- day very many minds scarcely reason better.. in regard to the unknown forces- of nature, which they would like to imprison in a nutshell -or, to speak more exactly, in the restricted limit of present undefined theories. The experiments spoken of and the hypotheses which they suggest are very much older than is generally imagined. At the end of the seven- teenth century the 'famous Male- branche showed• these phenomena, at- tributing them to the devil and de. claring dogmatically that if the rod turned it should do so in everybody's hands. The discussion begun in 1689 was still current in 1693, the year in which saw the Abbe de Vatlemont demonstrate in .his "Physique Oc- cuite" that, all human persons not being endowed with the same nervous sensibility, there was nothing sur- prising in the fact that the emana- tions caused by subterranean waters should reveal themselves to certain temperati ents and not to others. t-. »hain Rooke Over Rim .of Barrel and.
