D08T THOU LOOK BACK? Dost thou look back on -what hath been, Ab Borne divinely gifted man, Whose life in low estate began And on a simple village green; Who breaks his birth's inviduous bar, And grasps the skirts of happy chance. And breasts the blows of circumstance, And grapples- with his evil star; Who makes by force his merit known And lives to clutch the golden keys To- mold a mighty State's decrees And shape the whisper of the throne; And moving up 'from -thehigh to higher. Becomes on Fortune's crowning slope The pillar of a people's home, The center of a world's desire; Yet feels, as in a pensive dream, When all his active powers are still, A distant dearness in the hill, A secret sweetness in the stream; The limit of his narrower fate, While yet beside its vocal springs He played at counselors and kings, With one that was his earliest mate; Who plows with pain his native lea And reaps the labor of his hands, Orln the furrow musing stands; "Does my old friend remember me?" Tennyson. INVITATIONS OUT.

Now that summer has been recorded on the pages of history, the all absorbing topic among the younger Bet .Is, school, and who is going where." Everyone is interested in the schoolgirl. Who could help but be? She is .so bubbling over with enthusiasm over the excitement of her sorority rush; .the spike day, when the "fittest" survive; the great football victories, not to mention the spectacular basket ball games, in which she herself will play a prominent role. Then there is the joy of the forbidden midnight spread, for no schoolgirl has tasted the Joy of living until she has stealthily crept to the secret chamber in the wee small hours of the morning and sumptuously dined upon welsh rarebit and divinity fudge. - . It is becoming the custom to shower gifts upon the "departing sisters." One young woman, who is going East
to school, was the recipient of an ivory shower. Her friends, knowing that it was against the rules of the school for her to take her silver toilet set, came to her rescue and presented her with a complete set of handsome Parasian ivory, with her monogram inlaid in blue. Another popular maiden was presented with an electric chafing dish by the members of her local sorority. While still another was the honor guest at a miscellaneous shower, the gifts being many and varied, ranging from the daintiest lingerie, which is dear to every girl's heart, to the practical laundry bag made of pretty flowered chintz.
FALL IS HERE. With October only two weeks away the shop windows are showing all kinds of fall styles. If the warm weather that has set in for the past few days continues, in all probability there will not be many heavy suits seen on the streets for a time, but the women who want the best selections are beginning to observe. Fall hats are attracting the usual attention and many of the millinery shops will hold openings the latter part of the week. The women folk are looking forward to the fall opening being planned by the large shops. Most of the long coats on display are very mannish. They still continue on the straight lines that have been in vogue for several seasons. These are all made of soft wooly materials and have great patch pockets that catch the eye of every woman.

A team made up of players who bad never seen nor read of the game and had never had any Instruction outside of the rules would have no hit and run plays, no squeeze plays, probably no men caught "flat footed" off base, no double steals, no delayed steals, no shifting of the infield according to the runners on. the score and the "outs;" no signaling, no signal stealing, no hidden ball tricks, no "stalling" tricks, by which a player is led to think a ball is fielded in one place when it Is really fielded elsewhere in fact, the very heart and soul of baseball would be missing. The batter would hit or walk and patiently wait for his successor to hit or walk to advance him. Runs would be in exact proportion to hits, and outs would be made only in the stereotyped ways, and nobody would care either to play or to see the game! So It might be said, without much fear of contradiction, that the strategy of the game, the part played by brains and wits, is more to baseball than athletic ability to run, hit, field or throw, spectacular and exciting as plays made only by strength, muscle and skill must always be.

They train or at least take advantage of the instincts of a certain species of fish called by the Spanish reve (meaning reversed), because its back Is usually taken for its stomach. It has an oval plate attached to its head, the surface of which is traversed by parallel ridges. By this ptate it can firmly adhere to any solid body it may choose. The boats which go in quest of turtles each carry a tub containing a number of these reves. When the sleeping turtles are seen they are approached, and as soon as they are Judged near enough a reve is thrown into the sea. Upon perceiving the turtle its instinct teaches it to swim right toward It and fit Itself firmly upon the creature by means of its disk. Sooner would the reve allow Itself to be pulled to pieces than give up Its grip. A ring, which is attached to the tall of the fish, in which a string is fastened, allows the fisherman to pull In his prize. By a peculiar manipulation the reve is pulled off and returned to the tub. to be ready for use the next time a turtle is sighted. St. Louis .Globe-Democrat TED sewing machines.

Sweet Pickled Beets. Lay the beets in boiling water to loosen the skins. Rub these off with a coarse cloth and let the beets get perfectly eold before cutting them. Then slice with a sharp knife and pack into 6tone Jars. To each quart of vinegar add a cupful of sugar and a tablespoonful of mixed whole spices mace, stick cinnamon and allspice. Bring the vin-' egar to a boil, stir in sugar and spices, j boll, covered, for three minutes and pour, scalding hot, upon the sliced j beets, filling the jars to the top. Cov-j er and set away in a dark, cool place for three days. Then drain off the vin- i egar carefully, so as not to break the beets, and scald again with the spices. Do this three times within ten days after the beets are put into the jars and set away for a month before using them. They will keep well. If you wish to pickle small young beets whole, boil, without peeling, for five minutes after the boiling begins: let them get cold, rub off the skin, put Into the jars and proceed as with the sliced beets. Sweet Pickled Cucumbers. Select cucumbers of uniform size and not too large. The small cucumbers make the best and prettiest pickles. Reject all that are not perfect Pack In a stone jar, laying salt by the handful between the layers. Cover the top layer out of sight with salt, then fill the jar with cold water and cover with a small saucer or plate of the right size to fit within the mouth of the jar and lay a clean stone upon the plate. This is to keep the cucumbers under the brine. Leave them there for a fortnight at least A month would not hurt them. Every other day stir up the brine from the bottom. It should be strong enough to float a fresh egg if dropped into it You may add fresh cucumbers from the garden every day if more convenient than to put up all at once. When you are ready to put them through the last processes throw away the brine and examine the cucumbers carefully. If you find one that is pecked or soft do not let it go into the pickle. Lay those selected In cold fresh water and leave them there for twenty-four hours. Drain off the water, fill the jar with fresh water and leave for another day and night Now line a preserving kettle with vine leaves (green and clean) and pack In the cucumbers, scattering a teaspoonful of powdered alum over each layer. Cover with three thicknesses of vine leaves and pour in cold water enough to cover all. Cover the whole with a close lid and simmer over a slow fire for four hours, not letting it boil once In all that time, but keeping the contents scalding hot. Fruit Sponge. Put a pint packet of orange Jelly Into a basin and cover it with the required quantity of hot water, stirring it until it has melted. Then add a glassful of sherry and put It away to get cool. Pass sufficient stewed apricots through a sieve to produce half a pint of pulp (or any other soft fruit would do equally well) and leave in readiness to be added to the sponge. When the jelly is cold, but not set. whiat It..natientlT until It Is quite

frothy. Then stir in ngnuy tne wnnw of three eggs, beaten to a firm froth, and the fruit pulp and continue to whisk the jelly until it begins to get pongy, when It should be turned Into a china mold. The sponge can be turned out after a few hours and may be garnished with some of the same kind of fruit as that used to flavor It
Stuffed Ham. Select a freshly cured ham and have bone removed. Fill cavity with stuffing made of breadcrumbs, tie up securely and inclose bam in a paste of flour and water to keep juice from escaping, lie in a pudding bag or cloth, have ready a pot of boiling water and let ham boil slowly about two hours. When boiled sufficiently remove the crust pare skin off carefully so as not to injure the shape of the ham. put it in a roasting pan. sprinkle with breadcrumbs and set in a moderate oven to roast Peach Betty. Chop fine two cupfuls of not too ripe peaches. Butter a baking dish and place on it a layer of peaches, sprinkling with cinnamon, sugar and butter. Place on this a layer of the crumbs; alternating with the peaches until the dish is three-quarters full. ' leaving breadcrumbs on the top. Add no water, but cover tight aud stetiiu three-quarters of an hour in moderate oven. Remove, cover and brown quickly. Serve with milk or sauce. Chiffonade Dressing. This is extremely good to serve on lettuce, romaine or any green salad. Into a glass jar put one bard boiled egg finely chopped, a teaspoonful of finely cut chives, a teaspoonful -each of chopped red and green peppers, a teaspoonful of salt a fourth of a teaspoonful of paprika nd an eighth of a teaspoonful of pepper, half a cupful of olive oil, three tablespoonfuls of vinegar and a teaspoonful of tarragon vinegar. Allow it to become very cold and just before serving shake the contents of the jar thoroughly. Utilized the Visitor. Decamps, the famous French painter, had a studio located on the top floor of a building In Paris. A visitor to see the artist paused one day before going up to inquire If M. Decamps were in. Receiving an affirmative reply, he was Just starting up the stairs when the concierge called after him: "As you are about visiting M. Decamps, perhaps you will be ao kind as to carry np these trousers that I have Just brushed." When, a few moments later, the bell of the studio rang. Decamps opened the door and found on the threshold his friend and patron, the Duke of Orleans, heir to the French throne, who smilingly presented him with his newly brushed trousers. Mrs. Malaprop.
