BARTEL & YIGGERS,
A savory souffle is one made of vege
tables, poultry or game, a delicate, dain
ty dish which is raised up to airy light
ness by tho use of the whites of eggs, and
,vhich must be eaten tho moment it is
out o f the oven to be in perfection. Po
tato souffles are especially nice, but un
fortunately this term ia upplied to two
entirely uiflerent preparations o f potato,
tirst to a fried potato, swollen by a pe-
tnliar method of treating it. and second
to the regular potato souffle.
For this last preparation, the New
York Tribune says, wash and scrub with
a brush six potatoes of even, medium
size. As soon ¡1» the shin» are thorough
ly cleaned put them into the oven and
bake them until they are thoroughly
done. Cut off an end of each one and
scrape out the contents without break
ing the skins. Mash the potatoes until
they are free from lurnpa. A vegetable
press is very good for this purpose.
When the potatoes are mashed and per
fectly smooth add a tablespoonful of
butter, a teaspoonful of salt, a gill of
very rich new milk or cream boiling
hot, and finally the whites of tw o eggs
beaten to a stiff froth. Fill th* potato
skins with this mixture without putting
on the ends and stand them up in a
quick oven to bake for about 10 minutes
or until they are slightly browned or
swollen.
A souffle o f spinach is also especially
nice. Wash about tw o quarts o f spin
ach. There should be considerably over
a cup o f spinach when it is cooked. Cook
the spinach in abundance of boiling
salted water for about 20 minutes, then
drain it and plunge it into cold water.
When it has become a little cold press
out all the moisture and rub It through
a fine sieve. Add the yolks of three
eggs, a pinch of pepper, a little salt, two
tablespoonfuls of whipped cream and
the whites o f four eggs whipped to a
■tiff froth. Stir the cream and eggs in
■a delicately and lightly as you can,
rather "folding” them in than stirring
them. Fill buttered souffle dishes with
the preparation and bake about 15 min
utes. Mashed parsnips make a very
delicate souffle, and many other vege
table# may be used for this purpose.

TR IA L AND TRIUM PH.
Story o f • Temperance Hero W ho Would
Mot Brook HU PromUo.
The days o f heroiem are never past,
and the history of temperance in the
days when it was everywhere denounced
would afford some noble specimens. I
have often spoken of W illie Bartlett, and
it will interest those of your readers
who admire pluck wherever it is found
to read o f his trial and triumph.
W illie’s father was a uoble father, one
of the multitude whom the drink sweeps
sway who are said to be "nobody's
enemies but their own” —a saying terribly
false, as Willie's mother and the father
less children soon felt. Burdened with
debt and with six small children to sup-
rt, her prospects were very dark indeed.
irly in life, however, she had become
a true Christian, and tnough her hus
band, who had once walked with her in
the narrow path, had been led away by
the drink fiend, she remained faitnful,
and now that the day of trouble had
come she knew where to go for support
and guidance.
After awhile W illie’s mother deter
mined to apprentice him to his father’s
trade, and after some negotiations the
master agreed to take him. Having a
high regard for the father, the master
took him into the works and gave him
in charge o f his principal foreman. As
soon as the master had left the foreman
■aid:
“ Well, Willie, we’ll make a man of
thee here for thy father's sake, and we
must have a footing to drink thy success,
and as I know money is not very plenti
ful at home, I will pay for it myself,”
and immediately one of the other lads
was sent for a quart of beer.
Poor W illie was bewildered with this
arrangement, for liis mother had trained
him up a strict abstainer and had taught
him to hate his father's murderer—the
drink. The beer was soon brought, and
the men gathered round and each drank
to Willie's success. Then the foreman
ponred out a glass and offered It to
Willie:
“ Now, my lad, drink success to all."
Willie quietly replied, “ I am a teeto
taler and never touch the drink.”
Irritated at the boy's reply, the fore
man said: “ None of tligt nonsense. W e ll
have no teetotolism here. Take the drink
at once.”
W illie said, “ 1 promised mother 1
would never touch the drink, and I never
i will.”
J “ Look here,” said the man, “ we are
not going to have tw o masters here, so
| drink it up.”
“ I cannot, and I will notl” said Willie.
Mad with the boy’s rebellion against
his orders, the foreman said: "This is all
nonsense! You will have it in you or
I over you!"
"W e ll," said Willie, “ I can't help It
I will never drink. You can throw it
over me if you like.
I have brought
here a clean jacket and a good charac
ter. You may spoil my jacket if you
will, but you shall never Bpoil my char
acter.”
Btruck with the boy’s earnest look,
the man’s better nature prevailed, and
turning away he said to his mate»:
"H e’s a rum one. but I believe he’ll
make a man.”
The prophecy was right, for toda;-

Slsnlflesst Testimony.
Highly important and significant testi
mony on the relations of the liqnor traf
fic to the industrial problem waa given a
few days ago in a license court in Phila
delphia by Mr. Edwin Cramp of the
gTeat shipbuilding company. Mr. Cramp
appeared before the license court to re
monstrate against the granting of li
censes to fonr saloon keepers In the vi
cinity of his works. He stated the
grounds for his appearance ss follows:
“ W e object solely for business reasons
to the proxim ity o f these four drinking
places aad have practically nothing to
add to the remonstrances already filed.
The saloons are actually at our gates
and have resulted in m any accidents and
the demoralisation of our m en.”— Chris

M. Duran con, a Parisian shopksspw , de
siring to wind up his affaire, a friend and
merahant of the neighborhood lent him ouo
of hia own employees, a man of axpartenoa
end skill In such matters, who took upon
himself the task of settling up everything
to the beet advantage.
In earn« dusty pasteboard boxes on t h#
dusty top shelves of the little baak shop
this skillful employes, Julius Rosaray by
name, came across a lot of 9-bottou kid
gloves of tha moat axtraordlnsry safer—a
tender light green, of a hue so vividly bril
liant aa to maks an unwary parent who
dared to fix hia gaaa upon this pboaomenoa
in eoloring squint Uks a crossroads at tho
and of two mlnntesc
“ W h y , what have we hers?” demanded
Rosaray curiously.
Dureacon heaved a heavy sigh.
“ Tha great sol mistake and misfortune of
my Ilfs," ha murmured. “They data those
gloves from the time of the first mannfao-
ture of the various anil ins dyes. A Swe
dish commercial traveler pon::r. 'ad me to
buy thorn. Stay, too here, in this drawer,
tha olreular the rascal gaveme. 'Aniline, a
oolorisas liquid with an aroma like wins
and an arid flavor. It was dissevered by
aos Unvsrdorben. a chemist of Stock holm,
and la used exclusively in dyeing. Thanks
to the further dtaooverisa and efforts of one
Parkins, a Stockholm druggist, aniline has
now become tha foundation of numerous
coloring subetanoee, browns, violets, blues,
reds, yellows of d e a lin g huso, ata.
"W o n over by the sosmp’s glib tongue, I
confided to his hands a number of thins
and a quantity of scarf material. Red ties,
blue gloves, purple cravats, sold all right,
bnt green gloves— this green at any ret»—
well, as I have a i d already, before you lias
the misfortune of my life.”
"H a ve you many of these gloves?” Julios
queried thoughtfully.
“ Twelve gross of them— 12 times 12 dossu,
you know.”
"Their prioa?"
“ Their prioef
Whatever I can get, of
course. They were to have been told at 8
francs a pair; I put them at I franc a pair,
and still nobody wanted them.”
“ I will guarantee you at least 8 francs a
pair for tbs loti”
“ Eh? How so?”
’T H sell them for you.”
Durancon laughed.
“ To w hom ?" said he.
“ To the public, who will come to your
»hop to purchase them.”
"Rldlculoual”
"N o t the least in the world. Only I must
have 20 per cent commission on tha salsa.”
“ Dons!” cried Durancon.
"L e t na put it in w riting," said Rose ray.
“ Wrlttan Agreements are alwaya beat.”
There and then the bond waa drawn up,
and tha next day the following advert Is»
msnt appeared In all the morning papers:

Duranoon's shop all that day was literally
besieged.
"Y o u r wish, sir?”
"T h e new Russian gloves, cucumber col

Briefly, tha shop was so full that buyers
crowded each other Uks match«« In a box,
and 10 carriages an hour was a moderate
count drawing up in front of tha Ilf along
Durancon.
“ In my opinion,” Rosaray dsolared os
tired but triumphant they began to put up

It la alwaya wise to got out of tha way af

“ A s you Ilka,” sold Durancon, “but what

But Rcssrsy only laughed and with a
