One evening JF
Jean came upon
her husband una
wares In the 11-
brary. His face was burled In his
hands, and his whole attitude was one
of dejection and despair He had not
heard her enter. She softly withdrew.
"What have I done," she thought,
sorrowfully, "to make him happy?
Nothing."
She went back to the library.
"Ralph," she said, gently.
"Jean," he said, slowly, 1 have lost
my money—everytihng. We are poor,
Jean!"
"Bat, Ralph, yon have health,
strength and ability; yon are young
enough to work. Do yon care so much
for riches? You forget, Ralph, tha.t I
was poor, for a whole year. It wont
be a new experience for me aa for
you."
"I have nothing left, Jean, except
a little cottage and a piece of land out
In a western town where I once had
an Interest in a large factory. It was
such a small piece of property that I
forgot to mortgage It eves, and It es
caped the wreck."
"It would give us a home," she said,
thoughtfully,-"and don't you think yon
could get some position out there?"
"I was just thinking," he replied.
'A particular friend of. mine Is super
intendent of the factory, and I feel
confident he would give me an offloa
position.
"I'll wire," he said, promptly, "and
if he gives me any enooWagement, We
will go at onoe. 11l leave the house
and appointments and everything here
for Roberts to dispose of and hand
over to my creditors."
"Ralph, I have a balance of fLOOO
In my private aooount Well furnish
the little cottage with It"
The next day he telegraphed and re
ceived a favorable reply. Within a
week, he and jean were furnishing
their little, western home, and schem
ing to make their SI,OOO go as far aa
possible.
The little cottage was very pictur
esque and homelike. Jean, who had
acquired some little knowledge of
cooking in a chafing dish way In her
year of Independenoe, became a profi
cient housekeeper."
"Jean," said her husband, one night,
"It .seems marvelous to me that pov
erty has gained tor me what riches
could not. For.you do love me,
Jean!"
"You know I do, Ralph I and I think.
Ralph, you used to do too much for
me. There was nothing for me to do
in return, but common Interests and
common cares have awakened new
meanings In life and love to me."
"Then I will tell you something. It
was all untrue what I told you about
losing our money. I was brooding that
your not lovlnt me, and
when you came to me, sympathetic
and kind In manner, an Inspiration
moved me to try this experiment la
winning yonr love I have eome to love
this simple way of Bring."
"I have aa Interest In this factory,"
he laughed. "My salary was my divi

there waiting for as. Shall we go

"Let's take our real wedding trip,
Ralph, and go abroad,' she suggested.

GIVE THOUGHT TO GARNISHING
Summer Sslsds Appetising or the Re
verse, According to How This
Detail Is Attended To. ,
Salads arranged in a border of hard
boiled eggs, pickled beets, cold boiled
carrots and slices of potato cut In
fancy forms—hearts aad circles and
rings and triangles—are too ornate to
be in good taste. But the untarnished
dish is almost as unappetising.
Summer garnishes should always be
fresh, crisp and dainty. Watercress,'
fredh parsley, lettuce heart lea roe, ca
pers and small radishes, crisp snd
oold, all form appropriate and appetis
ing garnishes for msat. Bah and vege
table dishes.
Another way of garnishing Is by
combining two dishes. For Instance,
if hashed brown potatoes are to be
served with a hash of lamb and pep
pers, place the meat haah In the cen
ter of the dish and arrange the pota
toes neatly about It Creamed fish
can be plied In the center of the plat
ter. creamy mashed potatoes can be
arranged about It, and the whole can
be browned In the oven—with a few
buttered bread crumbs sprinkled over
the dish —for 10 to 15 minutes. Bacon
can be used as a garnish to liver or
poached or fried eggs. It should be
broiled, crisp snd dry, snd should be
neatly put on the serving dish; noth
ing Is more unsightly than greasy,
limp, half-cooked bacon plied hit or

REARING GOSLINGS NOT HARC
Long Brooding Is Unnscssssry snd ar
Ordinary Hen Coop Will Accom
modate Three or Pour.
(By W. ROBINSON.)
I have always used large, full feath
ered hens for hatchings, only allowing
the geese to sit on the laat eggs ol
the season. A good broody hen will
steadily sit the 80 days occupied Is
! the Incubation of thess eggs.
If she be given no more than tout
eggs and they are set In an earth nest
and turned once dally they should in
almost every case produce vigorous
goslings If the parent birds are healthy
and well matured.
Some people find a difficulty during
the early daya of talslng In the ten
dency of the birds to fall upon their
backs snd an Inability to right them
selves without ssslstant, necessitat
ing combined watchfulness or loss.
This, however, Is s nuisance that
may be avoided by the use of the eggs
of mature, sound stock only, the
weakness being absent In the progeny
of old birds In good breeding condi
tion.
The actual rearing presents no diffi
culties to one qualified In poultry
raising. Long brooding is unnecessary
and an ordinary hen coop Is sufficient
to accommodate three or four goslings
and a hen as long as it Is necessary
-to leave the latter In charge, bat dur
ing the first days the gosling's run,
which should be on short grsss, sEould
be limited.
The best diet Is a simple one and
for the first few days I have found
nothing better than stale bread well
soaked and squeesod moderately dry
and mixed with a liberal allowaaoe of
dandelion leaves, well tfcgaped and
free from stringy pieces. Biscuit meal
may be used Instead of the stale bread
but it is more expensive and the re
sults sre no better.
By the middle of the first week
ground oats should take the place of
the bread, mixed with a sufficient
quantity of grit to make the mixture
crumbly, the dandelions being Com
bined.
The green food may be gradually
reduced and finally abandoned when
the young birds are graslng freely.
They should commence graslng at
about a week old.
Upon a good graslng ground and
with a sufficient supply of soft food
mixture, of which ground oats should
be the staple lngrodtent, goslings will
progress rspldly.

WORSE THAN MARKET PUCE
Irreverence In Mr Paul's Cathedral
Centuries Age See ma New Al
most Unbelievable.
The solemn ceremonies In St Paul'a
cathedral contrast curiously with the
Indecorum of bygone tlmea, says the
London Chronicle. Even on the occa
sion of great men's funarala it waa
difficult to secure reverence. So bad
did the behavior of the people become'
that at the end of the fourteenth oeo
tury Blphop Braybroke held out a
threat of the greater exoommunloa
tlon because "In our cathedral not
only men but women also, not on
common days alone, bat eepedally on
festivals, expose their wares aa If it
were a public market and bay and
sell without reverence for the holy
place. Others play at ball or other
unseemly games, both within and
without the ehurch, breaking the
beautiful and costly painted windowa,
to the amasement of the spectators."
Up to IBl this desecration must
have been going on, for wa find that
the fire which deatroyed the spire In
that year was attributed to divine
anger. Colliers with their sacks of
coal and butchera' boys with their
loada of meat made the Interior of
the ehurch a short-cut to customers.
The nsve and aisles were like a pub
lic highway. "What swearing la
there," said an old poet "what
shouldering, what Jostling, what jeer
ing, what biting of thumbs to beget
quarrels." Even the choir boys dur

Lord Beaoonsfleld's recipe for a good
