When he had settled him- self to his liking, he preluded his story by telling of his periodical visits to the Rochester house of the Langdons, and proceeded to expiate that at each visit he proposed 'himself to Miss Langdon as an anxious but undesir- able suitor, On each occasion he wase gently declined, whereupon he would say: "I didn't suppose you would have me. I wouldn't, If I were you! I don't believe I should respect you as I do if I thought you would ever marry me!" But one day she did accept him. As he told this part of the story, says Mrs. Candace Wheeler Su Yesterdays in e Busy Life, the sweet humility and surprise of.the man seemed to envelop him like a garment. It was -as II it were always a new astonishment that his dream of this priceless creature ae his wife:could ever be realized, That was the inner mail; but the announcement of the engagement to her father was Mark Twain, the inimit- able, the one and only man of his kind. His story proceeded, lie found. the Judge in his office, plainly im- patient of this unexpected visit. After some uncomfortable delay, he burst out: "Say, judge, have you noticed any thing in particular between Livy and me lately?" "No, sir! Certainly not," replied the judge, somewhat flustered. "Well—look sharp—and you will," drawled Mark.' I remember, Mrs. Wheeler cortin•, uea, that one afternoon, when we were all gathered in the sitting room, he proposed to give me one of his books, asking which I would rather have. i said, "Oh, any one," but Mrs. Clemens chose for me the Prince and the Pan-, per, which was evidently more to her mind than some other of his books• Mr. Clemens brought it from the boa- case, and I asked hint to write sonic sort of inscription so that it might, go. in my autograph collection. He car- ried it to a writing desk in.a bay win- dow, and in the course of our chatting it occurred to Mrs. Clemens that he. had taken a long time in which to write a sentence or a name. "Why. Samuel," said she, "aren't you through with that?. You nsust be 'writ' lag a chapter'! "No," drawled , t•. Clemens, "hut it doesn't go. It doesn't sound just right, I will read it, and perhaps you can see what is the matter." So he' began to read: "To Mrs. Wheeler, with as much affection as is proper between two people whose re- licts are yet alive." Of course, we looked at each other with a burst of laughter. "What is the ]natter with it?" said Mr, Clemens innocently. "Somehow it doesn't sound right!" In November, 1917, he was promoted Second Lieutenant on the field, by February, 1913; he was a Captain, a little later he was a Major, and the end of the war found him a Lieutenant Colonel. In that time he had been six, times wounded, he had won the de- coration of Chevalier of the Legion of Honor, the Croix de Guerre with palms, and the Military Cross, haying been mentioned three times in des- patches and having proved ^himself a gallant soldier and able officer Not long ago Lieut: Col, Ritchings left' the army—the war being fought and won—and quietly resumed his place -as a common policeman pound- ing a beat in Cardiff. The Chairman of the Municipal Bench made a point of saying be was glad to see him back, and even went so far as to congratu- late Constable Ritchings publicly up- on his military record, . In fact, it seems there was a sort of ceremony welcome: So• the Lieutenant Colonel with four years of active military service to his credit and field rank, won at the front, displaying the ability to command 3,000 and odd men, modestly under• took to take charge once more of casual drunks and disorderlles in that busy Welsh mining town. Somebody wrote an indignant letter to a London paper about it, otherwise apparently the incident would have passed if not unnoticed, at least as not more than ordinarily noticeable. Asa consequence the Watch Committee of Cardiff, equivalent to our Police Com- missioner, took the ex -Lieutenant Colonel off his beat, and gave him the job of training the police awkward squad of recruits in the proper bear- ing and behavior of a constable. The, Lord Mayor when pressed for infor- mation whether there was any inten- tion of appointing the distinguished officer to a higher and more respons- ible position on the force went to the length of admitting that he thought he might say all the members of the Watch Committee were, sympathetic with this Idea, and that he had no doubt that when the opportunity oc- cutred Colonel or Constable Ritchings would be given a chance such as he deserved. It was also said in authoritative quarters (to quote the British press account) that Lieut: Col, Ritchings himself "recognized, as every right. thinking man would, that he had a moral obligation to return to the Car- diff police force for the reason that the ratepayers had been contributing during his absence to the support of his dependents at home." The Whale's Complicated Breathing Apparatus. An 'eminent naturalist says, con- cerning the breathing apparatus of the whale: "Tlte windpipe does npt communicate with the mouth; a hole is, as it were, bored right through the back of the head. Engineers would do Well to copy the action of the valve of the whale's blow -hole; a More perfect. piece of structure it is impossible to ivagine. Day and ivight, asleep or awake, the whale .works its breathing apparatus: in such a manner thatnot a drop of water ever gets down into the •lungs.,. Ag}tin, the whale must of necessity stay a nmeh longer period under water then seals.; this alone might possibly drown it, inasmuch as the lungs cannot have access to fresh air.. We end . that this difficulty has been anticipated and obviated by a peculiar reservoir in the venous sys- tem, which reservoir Is situated at the back of the lungs." Light.

' It has been estimated by reliable. authorities that from one-fourth 'to one-half of all'perishable crops raise in this country before the war were allowed to go to waste. Through at- tention to modern methods of pros- erva•atm (drying; canning, storing and salting) the percentage of foods formerly allowed to go to waste has been, greatly aieduced. Of the four methods of preservation —drying, canning, storing and salt ing-.avidely recommended for use dur- ing the past, few seasons, the., first is worthy of ;speeipl eonsidentttion, The sy✓tean of (laying, or dehydration; is especially applicable to those crops Which can not be stored satisfactorily, as well as those which are difficdlt to can, particularly on a' small seal?, There are two methods or systems of drying suited to the handling Of sue - phis liroduce from the average farm. The first of these systems includes the operation of the majority of cook -stove drying contrivances, the most .satis- factory of which is a set of cloth or screen-bottoni trays arranged horizon- tally over the kitchen range. The second system comprises the operation of fan -equipped commercial driers, or dehydrators, which may be had in sizes adapted for farm use. Driers of this type usually consist of a horizon- tal or a slightly inclined tunnel or cabinet fitted with a steam coil or a hot-air furnace at one end and a large exhaust fan at the other. Trays con' lining prepared produce are placed in the cabinet or chamber through which is drawn a current of heated air. A's the heated air becomes moisture - laden, it is removed and replaced by the, fan, thus reducing the time ord- inarily required for drying by about one-half. Not all kinds of products can be dried satisfactorily. In fact, little or no attempt should be made to dry those crops which keep well in ordin- ary storage, unless through drying then crop can 'be marketed to better ad- vantage. In all eases an attempt should be made to secure a first-class Rroauct from each kind of produce handled. This means that only pro- duce of good quality should be used. Cull fruits or vegetables give a cull produet—that is, one of inferior qual- ity. All produce should be thorough- ly and carefully prepared. Temperature best suited fox drying varies between 110 deg. and 170 deg. F. In the commercial drying plants, produce is ordinarily entered at .the end of the drier where the temper- ature is lowest, preferably 110 deg, to 130 deg. F. Trays entered here are shifted gradually toward a higher temperature (toward the steam coils) as drying progresses, and the produce is finished off and removed at a temp- erature of 150 deg. to 170 deg. F. ai the drying of produce over the kitchen range, an attempt should be made to duplicate, this temperature. This can ordinarily be accomplished by lowering the 'trays nearer.to the top of the stove ars drying progresses. Apples—Apples dry best when peel- ed, cored and sliced on hand -power or belt -driven machines, because the slices are of uniform thickness, and such slices dry best; where a „hand - power or belt -driven machine is not available, special effort must be made to secure uniform slices, preferably three -sixteenths of an inch in thick- ness. After slicing, the prepared fruits should be placed in a four per cent. salt solution for fifteen minutes. Then rinse, spread one-half inch thick on trays and dry, as quickly as pos- sible at a temperature' of 110 deg. to 160 deg. F. Beans --Beans for drying should be young, tender, and uniform in size. After being washed add snipped, they should be cut crosswise into one-half inchlengths, or run through a rotary slicer, blanched for three minutes in boiling water, cold -dipped and dried in layers one inch" deep at a temper- ature of 120 deg. to 170 deg. F. Carrots—Carrots should be washed, peeled, or scraped free of outer skin, eut'into three -sixteenth inch slices, or tihre•e' eightl s, incl) ., calms, blanched two minutes in boilingwater, tipped in cold water, spread from one to one d and one-fourth inches deep on trays and dried •at a temperature of 120'deg to 170 deg.

From six to eight hours' time is required for cloying at this temperature, Cauliflower—Heads of cauliflower must be washed, separated into parts or branches, cat one-fourth inch thick by means of `a similar!]tittle or rotas slicer, 'bl ached three minutes in boil- ing water, cold -dipped "end dried in le.rvels from three-fourths, to one inch deep at a temperature of 105 deg, to 150 deg. F. Peak—Peas should he shelled, blanbhed from one to one and one-half =metes in vigorously boiling water, cold -dipped and dried in layers from threh-fburths to One inch deep at ap- proximately the same temperaf re as that given for string beans.

'Sweet Corn—Sweet corn should be husked, silked, blenched' for from five to eight minutes in boiling water, cut and scraped from the cob and dried in layers from one-half to three- fourths inch deep at, a temperature of 110 deg. to 140 deg. F. An oc- casional stirring of the corn on the trays tends to shorten the drying period. All products should be dried enough to prevent them from spoiling when held under ordinary storage. Dried or dehydrated apples carry approuii- mately twenty-five per cent. moisture. However, a product which has .le`e moisture will keep to -better advan- tage. 'When thoroughly dried, . the slices of apples. or vegetables should approach a brittle stage. In general, the quality of the product is not affect- ed by more thorough drying, provided it is not allowed to scorch during the drying process. Many vegetables which adapt them- selves for use in the form of vegetable meals, ' such as pumpkins, tomatoes and peas, may be dried to a brittle stage and ground immediately through a hand grist -mill. The meal may be stored, until needed for use, in paper cartons with close -fitting. covers. .A. home-made cook stove drier that can be used on a wood or coal range or a kerosene stove can be made easily and cheaply. Dimensions: Bass, 24 x 16 inches; height, thirty-six inches. A base six inches high is made of galvanized sheet iron. This base slightly flares toward the 'bottom and has two small circular openings for ventilation in each of the four. sides. On the base rests a box -like frame made of strips of wood one or one and one-half inches wide. The two sides are braced with one and one- quarter inch striPe which serve as cleats on which the trays in the drier rest. These are placed three inches' apart. The frame is covered with bin or galvanized sheet iron;. tacked to the wooden, stripe of the frame. Thin strips of wood may be used instead of tin or sheet iron, The dolor is fitted on small hinges and fastened with a thumb -latch. It opens wide so that, the trays can be removed easily. The bottom • of the Omer is made of a piece of perforated galvanized sheet iron,: Two inches above the bottom is placed'a solid sheet of galvanized iron which is three inches less in length and width than the bottom. • This sheet rests on two wires fastened to the sides of the drier.
