Remembrances of the Pigtail. Waist long pigtails wore the fash­ ionable wear In England about 1740, and before that the bag wig had been adorned with a pigtail looped up in a black silk bag. As late as 1858 an old gentleman was seen In Loudon with his gray hair tied behind in a short cue, and even today one can find a relic of the pigtail, for the three pieces of black velvet on the dress tunics of officers lu the Hoyal Welsh Fuslleers are the remains of the rib­ bon with which the cue was tied.

Hundreds Dead and Property Loss * Up in Millions. Baltimore, June 26.— The progress­ ives in the Democratic national con­ vention claimed a noteworthy victory tonight when they carried a motion abrogating tbe rule by which some state delegations were bound to cast their vote as a unit. The fight^for and 'against the unit rule was waged particularly about tbe State o f Ohio, where 18 district dele­ gates had been instructed by primaries to vote for Woodrow Wilson, but where the state (convention, controlled by the Harmon forces, had invoked the unit rule binding all Ohio dele­ gates to the Ohio governor. The convention by a vote o f 565 to 489! voted that no state delegation should be bound by unit control except in such cases where a state law was mandatory on the subject. Wilson supporters in the convention who earlier in the evening had carried on a demonstration lasting 33 minutes regarded the vote as distinctly favor­ able. The Wilson boom had been growing throughout the day. Wilson had gained and Harmon lost 18 votes from the Ohio delegation as a result o f the fight. It was said the abrogation o f the rule might lead to breaks in other delegations and this le ft the presidential race tonight in greater doubt than ever. New York's Bolid block o f 90 votes was cast, amid hisses and groans, in favor o f continuing the unit rule. Missouri, the home state o f Champ Clark split 29 to 7 in favor o f the unit rule, and this result was received with groans. When Nebraska and Kansas voted solidly for the abrogation o f the unit rule there were cheers from the W il­ son forces. Pennsylvania, a Wilson state, gave a big majority for abro­ gation. There had been signs in the day o f a growing sentiment in the New York delegation in favor o f Wilson. Th§ delegation voted under the unit rule tonight in casting its ballot agaist the proposition fostered by the New Jersey governor’ s supporters. The fight over the unit rule carried the evening session well along toward midnight. The report from the cre­ dentials committee was then received. As there was a minority report, re­ quiring discussion, an adjournment was decided on until noon tomorrow.

Much of the asparagus that is sold ts hard aud wooden up to within two ar threo Inches of the top. Often the grocer will send such a bunch when supplies are ordered over the tele­ phone—a very careless method of marketing, but sometimes necessary. The bulk of such a bunch can be used In soup, and the tips, which are usual ly tender, can be utilized in various ways after reserving a few for a garnish In the soup. They should flrst be boiled until tender, but not until they break. Twelve minutes is the time usually allotted to them. Asparagus tips are familiar enough In asparagus salads and omelets. A few spoonfuls of these tips make a de licious addition to a lettuce salad or other dish of spring greens. Some cooks add a tiny spoonful of chopped chives. Chilled boiled tips also make an attractive garnish to a salmon sal ad. Creamed asparagus tips or aspara gus tips tossed in butter are 6ome times served as an entree In little patty crusts, or as a filling, with ap­ propriate seasonings, lu small dainty sandwich rolls for luncheon. An asparagus consomme makes an attractive soup at this season. To make It. add a few tips to a plain consomme. Tossed In a little hot butter or dressed with brown butter, these tips make a nice garnish for cutlets and broiled fish. Curries, too, with rice are Improved by the addition of as paragus tips. They may also be added to the gravy accompanying a meat oi fish, or used In an asparagus sauce . delicate cream sauce, such as Is used with fried chicken or fish, Is im proved in flavor and appearance b> the addition of some of the green tips carefully boiled. A famous cook gives the following recipe for an asparagus sauce, In which a variety of season lugs are used; Put two tablespoonfuls of butter in a saucepan, stir in twe tablespoonfuls of flour and gradually add a pint of white stock. Stir the sauce thoroughly while adding the stock to prevent lumps from forming Then add a seasoning of salt and pep per, a slice of onion, a little slice of carrot, a bay leaf, a tiny bit of mace and a sprig of parsley. Let tbe sauce simmer for 20 minutes, then strain it and add enough tips to give a nice color and flavor to the sauce. Some times the tips are mashed and strainer, but the bits of green are at­ tractive, and the mashing and straiD ing makes extra work. H e a v e n ly H a s h C a n d y . Two and one-half cups of sugar, one half cup of water, one-half cup of corn syrup.

Cook the other un til it becomes thicker and will string like icing does when it Is done, then pour in with the part that is cooked half done and beat until real stiff Pour in buttered plates to cool. Chocolate, nuts or cocoanut may be used if liked. A sp a ra gu s T o a s t. Wash and cut the asparagus in half- inch lengths. Bring two quarts of water to a boll, add one scant tea spoon of salt and one quart of aspara­ gus and boil thirty minutes or until tender. Toast several slices of bread and melt one-half cup of fresh butter When the asparagus is tender remove from the liquor and drain. Dip the toasted bread in the asparagus soup, then in the melted butter, lay in e dish and spread the asparagus over it Add balance of butter ^nd serve bot Delicious. W hen PRETTIEST W a s h in g G ra te r« . What la considered the most beauti­ ful bird in the world Is the quezal, of Guatemala. Until within tlho last few years It was unknown to science, among the feuthered creatures, de­ lighting In the silence of high alti­ tudes. It dwells on mountain heights above 7,000 feet In elevation. The quezal was the royal bird of the ancient Aztecs, and its plumes were used to decorate the head­ dresses and cloaks of their kings. The quezal's breast is a brilliant scarlet, while Its green tail attains a length of three feet. It Is about the size of the common pigeon It nests In holes tn rotten trees, which It enlarges with its bill, so us to make a roomy and comfortable residence. The young are hatched totally devoid of feathers. It is the hardest of all birds to pre­ pare for mounting, fpr its skin Is as tender as so much tissue paper, and the feathers are Implanted to such a slight depth that they readily fall out. A specimen is very apt to be spoiled by falling against a branch of a tree on being shot. Up to I860, naturalists did not know where the quezal was to be found. The few specimens which had fallen into their hands had been obtained from Indians, who kept the secret. About that time, however, a collector, visiting that country, got on the track of the birds and wfent up into the mountains, where he shot a number of them. In ancient times the skins of all birds of this species belonged to the king, and none but members of the royal family wore allowed to wear the feathers. The quezal belongs to the family of tragous. the genus including forty-six species, thirty-three of which are American. All are very beautiful and extremely rare. MONEY THAT WENT BEGGING O n e o f th e M o s t C u r io u s C a s e s in the H is t o r y of th e C h a n c e r y C o u rt s . Perhaps there is no more curious chapter in the history of the chan eery courts than that of two Pitts­ burgh men. The flrst had a claim to a small estate abroad, but he did not have the money to pay the claim agency to make a search. So he got a friend to back him. This friend’s name was Peterman, and the money he advanced was like a grubstake— he was gambling on his friend’s claim proving up. One day, when Peterman was at the claim-agency office, he came upon this advertisement in the agency flies: “ Peterman (Albertus), musician, born in Amsterdam, 1829. son of Charles Frederick and Henri­ etta Suzanna Gasman. Left for Liver­ pool, 1856. Ho is sought for Inheri­ tance by M. Contot, advo.cat, 21 Bou­ levard St. Germain, Paris.” That was the Inception of the famous “ Kinsey docks” case, the name coming from the fact that the original Peterman was last seen at the Kinsey docks in Liverpool. The claim agency took the matter In hand, traced Peterman’s lin­ eage back, and enabled him to estab­ lish a good claim to an inheritance of $200,000. That was a case of fortune being thrust upon a man.— Lewis Ed­ win Theiss, in Harper’s Weekly. P r o te c tio n . “ Women who are alone in a flat ah day take many precautions to Insure safety,” a gas collector said. “ One way that I learned the other day made me feel rather foolish. When I went Into the kitchen to read the meter the mistress of the flat stepped to the telephone and said; ” ‘It’s all right, Central. It’s only the gas man.’ “ Of course, she was under no obli­ gations to explain that cryptic allusion to myself, but she did It voluntarily. “ ’Every time the doorbell rings when I am here alone,' she said, ‘I take the receiver off the hook and leave the telephone open before I go to the door, so that If I should have occasion to scream they could hear me at headquarters and send somebody to my assistance.’ “ To utilize the telephone company as a private detective bureau struck me as nervy, but I have since learned that a lot of lone women resort to that plan with satisfaction to all con- • erned.” Children ? A sk your doctor how often he prescribes an alcoholic stimulant for children. He will probably say, “ Very, very rarely." A sk him how often he prescribes a tonic for them. He will probably an­ swer, “Very, very frequently.” Then ask him about Ayer’s Sarsaparilla as a strong and safe tonic for the young. Not a drop of alcohol in it. Always keep a box of Ayer's Pills in the house. Just one pill at bedtime, now tnd then, will ward off many an attack of biliousness, indigestion, sick-headache. How many years has your doctor known these pills? Ask him all about them. M a d * b y th e J. O. A Y f . a C O ., L o w e l l .
