From MISS MARY CREASE SEARS, of Massachusetts, Alternate Lady Manager. Two good-sized boiled lobsters. Pick out all the meat and cut into one-inch pieces. Place in a chafing dish with one ounce of butter, a pinch of salt and a very little red pepper. Cook five minutes, then add a wine glass of Madeira.

And he worked like a man. Isak could hardly have managed to get the new barn built at all without Sivert's help but there it stood now, with bridge-way and air-holes and all, as big as they had at the parsonage itself. True, it was only a half-timbered building covered with boarding, but extra stout built, with iron clinches at the corners, and covered with one-inch plank from Isak's own sawmill.

Hilliard then lifted the footstool on to the rim and lowered the lid on to it, afterwards passing in through the opening thus left the satchel of food and the one-inch auger. A means of observation now remained to be made. Two holes, they thought, should afford all the view necessary, one looking towards the front of the wharf, and the other at right angles, along the side of the shed.

I had the satisfaction of seeing the surf log-rafts at work again, and also saw one put together. When not in use the logs lie apart, to dry I suppose, and acquire buoyancy. It took not more than eight minutes to pull the four legs into position and string them together. The roping was done with a thin one-inch coir rope quickly and neatly, not so tight as to make all quite rigid.

"I begin to see the effect of the bill-board's printing the star's name in letters two feet high and the playwright's in one-inch type." "The newspapers don't print yours at all, do they? Unless you shoot some one," she added maliciously. "True enough. But I don't think I'd shine as a playwright." "What will you do, then, if you fire yourself?" "Fiction, perhaps.

If you were to purchase five yards of one-inch blue ribbon, cut it into three strips of equal length, and fasten one end to each of the three corners of the hat, tying the other ends into a choux, it would make a very acceptable work-basket to send to your grandmother at Christmas. Now Napoleon never asked that woman for advice on the subject.
