A Good Way to Cook TrouL
Build your tire and let it burn until
you have a good lied of hot atones and
astiés. Have your trout, cleaned and
washed, ready at hand oil anything
convenient. Pluck au armful of bal­
sam twigs. Bake out your tire, leav­
ing a base of hot stones ami ashes.
Upon this base lay balsam twigs till
you have a layer from six to ten
Inches thick. Now put your imul in a
row upon this layer and cover with
another layer of equal thickness. Over
all lay ashes and hot stones. Then
smoke your pipe for. say, twenty min
utes. When at last you gently remove
tbe coverings you will think at tits!
that tbe trout have not been cooked at
all. There they lie iu all their moist
beauty, colored as when they first
came to your basket Bat be careful
how you handle them or they will fall
apart, so tender are they. Steamed
through nnd through by the henttsl
essences of the balsam, they give «mt
a faint aromatic redolence that adds a
subtle perfection to the flavor.—Ban-
nlster Merwin in Outing.
The Old Turnpikes,
The first great American highway.
that between New York and I’bllndel-
pbia. was long known ns "the old York
roud.” Its construction lu 1711 was
an example which led the colonists nt
other points Hlong the Atlantic sea­
board to construct similar roads where
there were no water routes. They
were usually built by chartered com­
panies and were called turnpikes or
toll roads. Pennsylvania. Connecticut
and New Jersey had many roads of
the kind. Tbe first macadam road in
America wns built in 1792 between
Philadelphia and Lancaster. In 1811
there were said to be 4.500 miles of
chartered turnpikes lu New England
and New York. During the uext twen­
ty years the national government
spent many millions of dollars in con­
structing great highways, but the pan­
ic of 1837 and the building of railroads
and canals put an end to that branch
of government work.—Youth’s Com­
panion.
Cape of Good Hope.
The Cape of Good Hope lies at a
considerable distance from the end of
South Africa and is. in fact, the middle
of the three promontories, severally
Incousplcuous. which jointly terminate
a slender peninsula, some twenty miles
in length, forming the barrier between
False bay and tbe Atlantic ocean on
the west. These three headlands, lying
near together and commonly undivided
on a map of moderate scale, are locally
deslgna'ed Cape Point It was here
that Bartholomew Diaz first encoun­
tered in full force the prevalent south­
easterly gales and denounced the rug­
ged. threatening, threefold promontory
under the sounding appellation of the
Cape of Storms, to be afterward re­
christened by pious, trustful hearts tín-

of tinned meats, which tbe natives
bought with avidity. Each tin was
branded with a colored picture—a cow
for beef, a sheep for inuttou and a
flab for sardines. It happened that tbe
firm which furnished tlie inuttou
thought it a good plan to alter its
labels, that Its goods might be more
easily distinguished from the others.

The Bell telephone companies have found that
just before Christinas the number of daily con­

has become a necessity of the holiday season,
because without it most people would not have
