Have ready a good broth made of three pounds of veal boiled slowly in as much water as will cover it, till the meat is reduced to shreds. It must then be well strained. Having boiled one fine middle-sized lobster, extract all the meat from the body and claws. Bruise part of the coral in a mortar, and also an equal quantity of the meat. Mix them well together.

"I hope you're feeling all right now, Puss," Frank said, pleasantly. "I wanted to ask your pardon for treating you so roughly; but knowing you couldn't swim, I was afraid that if you closed with me we'd both go down." "But you struck me once right in the face, you coward!" exclaimed the other, as he put his still trembling hand up to where a bruise of some sort could be seen.

"I believe my breast-bone is knocked in. Just help me to examine; but first catch my horse, like a good fellow." It was found on examination that no bones were broken, and that, beyond a bruise, Considine was none the worse of his adventure. One egg was found to have survived the general destruction. This was taken to the farm and handed to Mrs Marais, and that amiable lady adopted and hatched it!

"I do envy any man fortune. Why should I starve, waiting for you, and ?" "Hush!" she said, as though she had spoken to a little child. "I won't hear no wild words to-day in all this gude gold sunshine." "God damn everything!" he burst out. "What a poor, impotent wretch He's made me a thing to bruise its useless hands beating the door that will never open!

The only certain thing was that the Archdeacon had a bruise on his temple and a scratch on his cheek, and that he was "queer," oh, yes, very queer indeed! It was finally about this "queerness" that the gossip of the town most persistently clung.

Nor was this the only evidence of ill-treatment: other bruises, and even scars, were to be seen on the lean little body. "Puir thing!" said the matron in a low tone, sympathizingly. "Baubie, who gave you that bruise?" asked Miss Mackenzie.

In their start and alarm above they had let him slip down suddenly a few feet, but his violent cries and entreaties to be drawn up were quickly attended to, and, amidst incessant hitting, and such a volley of stones that I do not think one inch of his body escaped a bruise, he disappeared from our sight. We heard him groaning and moaning above, while the others questioned him.

Poor Julia removed from her face the sanguinary stains, and endeavoring to arrange her hair so as to conceal the wound which had been inflicted upon her; all in vain, however, for Mr. Hedge noticed it the first moment she entered the room. 'My own dear Julia, said he, in a tone of much concern, and taking her hand 'what has caused that terrible bruise upon your cheek?

One large bruise on the shin is even more characteristic of the 'prentice cyclist, for upon every one of them waits the jest of the unexpected treadle. You try at least to walk your machine in an easy manner, and whack! you are rubbing your shin. So out of innocence we ripen.

The bruise on her head had not proved so serious as was at first feared, and with her tangled hair falling over her face Harold had not noticed it. But he looked at it now and questioned her of it, and asking if Peterkin had struck her there.
