Cakes That Keep.

that keep -that can be kept in the
cake box for a week or two, ready to
furnish savory slices 'for afternoon
tea or the glass of lemonade ' offered
to a guest an a warm day or to add
to the luncheon dessert if need be.
Here are the recipes for some very
good cakes that can be relied on for
freshness for a good many days.
Pork Cake. -.-This is an old recipe
for a very good cake and itis rather tt
odd that it is not made often nowa-!:

not very difficult to
prepare; It will keep for a year, and
there are stories of old-time house
keepers who used to make next year's
pork cakes on the day when they be-
gan to eat those made last year. The
recipe for this cake calls for a pound
of salt pork chopped fine. Pour a
pint of boiling water over this and
add two cupfuls of molasses and two
of sugar, sifted with a teaspoonful of -
cinnamon and half a teaspoonful aJ 1
of cloves and nutmeg.

Hailey's Comet Mauled,
The astrologers paint cat that ever
since the return of Halite F Comet in
1910 wars and disasters have fallen
upon Europe. This is what their "sci-
ence" would lead us to expect, as the
appearance of the great cornet in
Aries was said by ancient astrologers
to presignify "evil and detriment to
the Eastern part; sorrows to the peo-
pies under Aries; the: clash of arms
and bloodshed; death or dethronement
of same king," Since the comet 'tip -
peered two local wars have occurred
in the Balkans, Italy has been at war
with Turkey, King Edward VIT., the
leading monarch of Europe, has died,
and now the greatest war of all time
is raging.
The astrologers assert that they
gain their foreknowledge of coming
events by studying theheavensfrom
many different paints of view. The
position of the sun with regard eo the
planets and stars is the most import-
ant heavenly influence on human ac-
tions and earthly occurrences. The
position of the moon, awing to its
nearness to us, and the important
gravitational influence it exerts • upon
our minds and bodies, is next in im-
portance.
