May Day festivities at Earlham Col.lege on Saturday afternoon aroused the greatest enthusiasm of the one thousand or more spectators who witnessed the novel and altogether beautiful observance of a custom as old as old England itself, but new to college life in America. Once before, Earlham held May day exercises on the same order, but not on such a scale of grandeur as, Saturday, and tho manner in which the Richmond folk, young and old, ''took to it" indicates that Earlham might stimulate Us o.-vn social llfo a great deal more If affairs in which the general public might mingle, if not participate, were more frequent. May day celebrations at Earlham are of quinquennial occur rence, but why wait five years? It need not of necessity, bo a May day celebration, but there could be other unique entertainments on tho beautl ful college campus that affords an al most unequaled Betting for any event. that would draw tho Richmond people closer to tho old Quaker college than they now are. Tho General Assembly of tho Unit cd Presbyterian church embodied in Its adopted report from tho committee on reform, a clause which condemns Sunday newspapers. Probably it will take many years to train tho people In general to the Idea that Sunday newspapers are productive of evil arid that to read them constitutes desecra tlon of the Sabbath .but a majority of people will readily agree that there are some newspapers which are ex ceptlonally bad reading on Sunday fend on week days too.

Good Sunday Dinner

By Cornelia Veal is now at its best, and while it is of itself rather tasteless, its flavor can be greatly Improved by the judicious' addition of seasonings and its digestibility increased by slow ' and careful cooking. With a stuffed and braised shoulder of veal as the central dish we can easily construct the following menu: Potato Puree Stuffed and Braised Veal Shoulder Green Peas Rice Timbales Cucumber and Radish Salad. Cheese Wafers Molded 'Chocolate Corn Starch with , Berries and Cream. Coffee. As it Is often desirable to have the Sunday work lightened as much as possible, some of these dishes may be prepared on Saturday. Let us take first the dessert. Scald one pint and a half of milk In a double boiler. Mix together three barely rounded tablespoonfuls of corn starch, threo ta ble spoonfuls of sugar and one quarter of a teaspoonful of salt and rub to a paste with a little cold milk. Pour this quickly into the scalded milk and stir until smoothly thickened ,then cover and let cook for fully half an hour. Take off, flavor with a teaspoonful of vanilla, pour into a wetted mold and set away. This and all the proportions given for the menu, will be sufficient for six persons. To serve, turn out surround the base with fresh hulled strawberries and serve with a pitcher of sweet cream. Pick over and wash thoroughly one cupful of raw rice. Drop It Into a kettle containing fully four quarts of boiling water. Add a' half teaspoonful of salt, cover bring quickly to a galloping boll, partly uncover and boll rapidly until the grains feel tender, when a few are rubbed between thumb and Angers. Drain in a colander. Butter sir tlmdale molds, lightly pack them with rice, cover and set away. On Suiiday arrange in a steamer and steap for half an hour or until piping hotj Turn out on a platter and sprinkle with a little very finely chopped parsley. A shoulder of veal usually weighs from seven to nine pounds. Have the butcher bone it and deliver both bones and meat. Put the former in a kettle, add two quarts of water and simmer for three or four hours, adding when two-thirds done, a small carrot, an onlori and a clove. Whei done, strain and set aside. Wipe the meat with a damp cloth. From a stale small loaf, trim off the crust, soak for ten minutes in cold water, squeeze as dry 6s possible, crumble and mix it with the finely crumbled interior. Add salt and pepper to taste, a half tea spoonful of thyme and two onions chopped and cooked slowly in a spoonful of dripping .until tender and very slightly browned. Melt a halt cupful of clarified beef dripping and Memorial Chimes. Sweet memory chimes That fall upon by willing ear. Where art thou now? Awake my mind that thou mayst hear Methlnks again I hear them now. Real chimes borne on the breeze. So like those of long ago How wonderful! are these. Proud Albion searched her treasures bare, And rangr(he chimes In London street f Relying to the Seine's loud peal. Where intonations at sea may meet. Richmond; oh Richmond; of central blrti;' Art thou akin to English domain? Where erst thou when the fetters bound Yet now we hear the glad refrain. Surrounded once by battle-fields Another Richmond comes to view; Where brothers met, and brothers . fell; Whence flowed the blood of warriors true. Basking in the sun-lit vale The Quaker City lives In peace. The chimes pour forth a wondrous tale Of Liberty, Freedom and Release. EMMA R. TORRENCE.

stir it into the stucing. Wipe the meat with a damp cloth, fill the cavity with the stuffing and bind with a strip of muslin. Should any stuffing be left mold it in balls to be baked sepa rately. On Sunday morning place in the braising pan a layer of sliced onions and carrot3 and on this place the meat. Heat the stock from the bones add a pint of strained tomato and salt and pepper to taste and pour round the meat. Cover closely. (When you have no regular braising pan substitute any deep pan or kettle with a tightly fitting cover). Place in a moderate oven, allow half an hour for heating through and half an hour for each pound of meat. Three quarters of an hour before dinner uncover and quicken the fire that the meat may brown. Strain the gravy which re mains, thicken it If desired and serve separately. Fresh green peas are best when cooked in this way. For a quart of shelled peas melt together in a sauce pan one large tablespoonful of but ter, one lump of eugar, a half teaspoonful of salt and a dash of white oepper. Turn in the washed reas, cover closely and shake over a hot ure until the cooler is very vivid about five minutes. Draw back, add three tablespoonfuls of boiling vta. ter and cOok slowly until tender from twenty minutes to half an hour, If necessary a few more spoonfuls of water may be added from time to time but only just enough to keep from burning. They will be found very delicious. Pare and boll four large potatoes. Scald a scant cuart of milk in a dou ble boiler, dropping in it a cut stalk of celery (or a saltspoonful of celery seed) and two slices of onion. Slight ly thicken it with one tablespoonful of flour mixed with milk. Put the hot boiled potatoes though a ricer, grad ually add the cooked milk and rub all through a sieve. Return to the fi-e in a double boiler, season with salt and pepper, add one teaspoonful of butter and cook for ten minutes. In serving sprinkle a pinch of chopped parsley over each plateful or add a spoonful of whipped cream. Early In the morning trim and wash' the radishes, pare the cucum bers and drop both In cold water. Just before dinner thinly slice the cucum bers and arrange them on the salad dish, garnishing with the radishes Serve with them a French dressing and cheese wafers warmed in the ov en; the latter may be purchased at any grocery. For six cups of after dinner coffee take five tablespoonfuls of finely ground coffee, put in a drip pot and gradually add a pint and a. half of boiling water. Serve clear and very hot. Letter List.

LEADING fIGHT J. Ray Simpson Attracts Attention by his Insurance Analysis. WORK IS COMPLIMENTED. SHOWS THAT BIG FIRE INSUR ANCE COMPANIES ARE NOT JUSTIFIED IN INCREASING THE RATES. J. R. Simpson, a native of Richmond and a son of the Rev. E. C. Simpson who for a long period was one of r.he best known ministers in Richmond, is attracting attention throughout the country by his leadership in the movement to defeat the proposed advance of fire insurance rates in the congest ed districts of the large cities. Mr. Simpson has compiled a table, showing that a large number of the leading companies have paid their shareholders large dividends, without mak lng proportionate additions to their surplus for the protection of policy holders in emergencies such as the present one. This tabulation is being used widely in the New England cru sade, and is published with comment by several of the Boston papers. The Boston Globe, prints the follow lng: "J. R. Simpson of William Filene's Sons Company, one of the principal business houses located within the local "congested district," has pre pared a table in support of his con tention that the public should not be called upon to pay the losses incurred by the companies at San Francisco. He analyzes for tb past ten years the financial exhibits of .twelve leadin American companies with a combined capital stock of $19,450,000. "The net premium income of these companies, Mr. Simpson shows, a mounted to $525,645,500 during the past decade, with losses paid to near ly $200,000,000. The expenses of con ducting this business amounted to nearly $190,000,000, while the under writing profit alone, apart from the profits realized upon their investments netted a profit of nearly $20,000,000."

SOME GOOD STORIES. JTot For HerTold of Hark Twate. Diplomacy. A story is told of a young wife who knew" little of housekeeping. She was In consequence of that Inexperience disposed to stand a bit In awe of the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker, for she felt sure they must be aware of the extent of her ignorance In household matters. She ordered on ly such things as she was absolutely sure of, and she made her Interviews with the tradesmen as brief as possible. One morning there came to her house a collector of ashes. "Ash-ees, ash-ees!" she heard him calling In stentorian tones. As the cry was repeated again and again she became more and more perplexed as to what "ash-ees" meant. Finally she went to the gate in the rear and opened it "Ash-ees?" came In guttural question from the man. The young wife hesitated for a mo ment; then, drawing herself up to a dignified attitude, she replied coldly, No, I don't think I care for any to day." At a recent dinner Mark Twain, ac cording to an English report, made a most amusing little speech which was responded to as follows by a lawyer who was present: "Doesn't it strike the company as a little unusual," he Inquired, "that a professional humorist should be funny?" When the laugh that greeted this sally had subsided Mark Twain drawled out, "Doesn t it strike the company as a little unusual that a lawyer should have his bands In his own pockets?" A young and smart looking Scotch clergyman was to preach a "trial" sermon In a strange church. Fearing that his hair might be disarranged or that he might have a smudge on his face, he said to the sexton,' there being no mirror In the vestry, "James, could you get me a glass?" James disappeared and after a few minutes returned with something under bis coat, which, to the consternation of the divine, he pro duced In the form of a bottle, saying, Ye mauna let on aboot It, meenlster, for I got it as a special favor, and I wadna hae got it at all If I had na told them It was for you." Harper's Week ly. A Protective Precaution. "Don't you know," defiantly asked the socialistic orator, "that the people are now crying out for Justice to keep her eye on the lawbreakers In high places?" "I don't care for that," returned the millionaire rebater, "as long as her bandage doesn't slip off." Baltimore American. Ownership. "When I was younger," said Mr Cumrox, "I looked forward to having a home of my own." "Well, haven't you got it?" "Well, it's mine legally, but I don't feel like using It much except when mother and the girls haven't compa ny." Washington Star. Accent on the "Man." "Well," he said during their quarrel, "I suppose you'll be wanting a divorce next." "Really," she replied coldly, "I don't see why it should be necessary In this case. A woman doesn't need a divorce unless she has been married to a man." Philadelphia Ledger. Family Reaemblancea. She Did you ever seen the Homer twins? no Yes. She Don't you think the boy is the picture of his father? ne Yes; and I also think the girl is the phonograph of her mother. Mln neapolls Journal. In the Beeinntns. "Yours Is certainly an unusual case," said the lawyer, "and It will be necessary to consult a number of books." "So?" queried the client.

The nose of Cleopatra had a marked Influence on the destinies of the ancient world. The handwriting of Na poleon I., we are assured by recent historians, had a similar effect upon the evolution of the modern world. lie did not write; he scrawled. By reason of this, among other causes, he lost Waterloo. Grouchy could not read with exactness his decisive message. Was It "bataille engagee" (battle la on), or "bataille gagnee" (battle Is won)? , Grouchy chose the latter significance and, not believing it necessary to press forward, arrived too late. So much for the curl of a letter, a pen stroke or an illegible swell to an "a." This question was brought forward by the writing master of the elder Dumas. "Remember, Alexandre," the master said to him, "the great defeat of the emperor was due only to his scrawling hand. If you wish to succeed in the world be careful of your heavy and your light strokes." So if Napoleon had known how to write legibly or If he had taken the trouble to do so his descendants would reign today In France and we should not have had the republic. It appears historically established today that Dumas writing master was right. And on such slight things rests the fate of empires. Cri de Paris. The Onprey. Allusion is often made, especially In fashion journals, to "osprey" feathers. Few words have been more loosely bandied about than this bird name. The Roman author Pliny's "osslfraga" (bone breaker) has been Identified with the lammergeyer, a vulture that Is reputed to break up bones too big for it to devour whole by dropping them from a height upon rocks. But both "osslfrage" and "osprey," a newer form, came to be applied to quite another bird, the fish hawk, which is now the true "osprey." Yet the "osprey" feathers more properly egret feathers, or aigrettes do not come from this bird, but from the egret, or lesser white heron. The Sen Otter. The sea otter combines the habits of a seal with the intelligence and amus-. Ing character of the otter. When met in herds far put at sea, which is but seldom -now, they are commonly seen swimming on their backs. They even eat their food lying in this position on the water and nurse their young ones on their chests between their paws, exactly as a south sea island mother swims with her baby In the water. When swimming in this attitude they even shade their eyes with their paws when the sun dazzles them. One of Hi Inferiors. "He says he always tries to be polite to his inferiors and Hey, wliere are you going?" "Going to find him and give him a licking." "What for?" "I met him this morning, and he was as polite as a dancing master." Houston Post The Other Way. The teacher had been talking about a hen sitting on eggs, says English Country Life, and, with the incubator In mind, asked if eggs could be hatched in any other way. "Yes, sir," said an experienced person of nine. "Put 'em under a duck." HOT i

Ths wonderful changes which the human bra!u undergoes from the moment when it first appears In the embryo until it becomes the perfected laboratorj of thought characteristic to the ma tured human being has been commented upon by several of the leading wrltert on biology, physiology, etc. During these successive changes, or, rather, transformations from the lower to tb higher sphere, the human brain nol only takes upon itself tho general shapt and form of the brains of various representatives of the lower classes of animals, but appears to have the sami structural constituents, at least to s certain degree. Thus It has been found that the original germ of the brain as it appears In the human embryo hai tho exact outlines of a serpent's thought ' factory. After that the changes whlci take place while the brain is assuming the various shapes which it roust undergo before it becomes perfect give 11 a decided resemblance to the brains ol fishes, birds and mammlferous animals. "Ileln's "Thoughts on the Btructurt of the numan Brain" and Wilson'i "Anatomy of the numan Body" both mention these queer transformations, as docs also Hugh Miller in bis famoui work, "Testimony of tho Rocks." Miller puts It In this way: "It has long been known that the human brain it built up by a wonderful process, during which It assumes In succession the form of the brain of a serpent, a fish, a bird, and lastly, before it assumes the characteristic human form. It takes upon itself the outline of a mammlferous quadruped's brain." Ilence the remark made by scientific writers that "man ia the sum total of all animals." How's This?
