Hain, Henry Schulte and Julius Spies Mrs. Spies has returned to her home at Cleveland. ■ o Yuhuonlrtc HcS. Here Is the Way They Were Made In the Oiden Days. The delicacy of the Yorkshire pies of olden days may be judged by the following recipe from an old fashioned cookery book: "First ixake a good standing crest, let the wall and bottom be very thick: bone a turkey, a goose, a fowl, a partridge and a pigeon; season them all very well: take half an ounce of mace, half an ounce of nutmegs. a quarter of an ounce of cloves and half an ounce of black pepper, all beat fine together; two large spoonfuls of salt, and then mix them together. Open the fowls all down the back and bone them, first the pigeon, then the partridge; cover them: then the fowl, then the goose and then the turkey, which must be large; season them all well first and lay them in the crust so that it will look only like a whole turkey; then have a hare ready cased and wiped with a clean cloth; cut it to pieces—that is, joint it: season it and lay it as close as you can on one side; on the other side woodcock, more game and what sort of wild fowl you can get. Season thorn well and lay them close: put at least four pounds of butter into the pie, then lay on your lid, which must be a very thick one, and let it be well baked. It must have a very hot oven and will take at least f>ur hours.” It is not surprising to find that a footnote adds that the crust requires a bushel of flour.—Chambers’ Journal. Aspiration sees only one side of every question; possession many.—Lowell.

His Query. Wilfred was taken to the lake, which was entirely frozen over, and the smooth ice glittered in the sunlight It was the first time the little fellow had seen this body of water covered with ice, and, after viewing it for a few minutes, be turned to his mother and asked innocently: “Say, mamma, who put the lid on the lake?”—Circle. Her Late Husband. Hubby (returning from his club at 3 a. m. and finding his wife, dressed in widow’s weeds, awaiting him)— What on earth are you in mourning for? “My late husband,” came the tearful reply. Simplicity’s Saving Grace. “I like simplicity,” said the statesman. “Simplicity saves us a lot of trouble too. "Two men met in front of the Blank hotel the other day and fell into a political argument They were ordinary, everyday sort of men. but one of them had an extraordinary flow of polysyllabic language. He talked half an hour, and his companion listened In a daze. “‘And now,’ the speaker pompously concluded, *perhape you will cointide with me.’ “The other's face brightened up. “ ‘Why. yes. Thanks, old man,’ he answered heartily, moving toward the barroom door, ‘I don't care if I do.’ ” NOTICE All persona knowing themselves indebted to us kindly call at B. Salver & Son’s Junk shop and settle as J. B, Kalver leaves the city in two weeks and all accounts must be settled by then. B. Kalver Clo. Co.
