Making Quince Preserves.

Ths excuse for this richest of al! pre- serves 13 ite very richness, its pungent, delicious flavor—so unlike any other fruit that there seems no kinship’ he- tween them. We do uot want it often— we should tire of it—and we do not want much of it, soitis well in any bat large families to use pint jars for it. Quince is better than any other pre-

ditional touch of flavor to mince meat, is effective in tutti frutti and nessel- rode pudding and in a @iaret cup. Ths flavor is finer, mellower and the pieces ‘of fruit softer the second year after preserving it.

In preserving first wask the fruit thoroughly, as the -kins will be used for jelly; pare, halve it if small, quar- ter if re, cut out the core neatly and drop pieces into cold watery. When eno h fruit is pared to make two lay- ers in the preserving kettle, put them on in cold water and boil (not violent- ly) until they can be easily pierced with a straw, or they can be steamed just as well, and more can then be done at one time. When done, lay them on a platter. Strain the water in which they were boiled and add three-quarters of a pound of sugar for each pint. Boil gently for ten minutes, skim, add the fruit, simmer for 20 minutes longer and seal. Many use an equal quantity of apples with the quince, and so pungent is the quince flavor that in eating the preserves it is difficult to distinguish which is the apple. The Pound Sweet is the best apple for the purpose. The apple will need only the 20 minutes’ cooking in the sirup—no preliminary boiling or steaming. To can quinces and apples, proceed as above;using a quarter of a pound of sugar to a pourd of fruit.—Ella Morris Kretschmar in Woxsan’s Home Companion.

Discoveries at Treves.

The excavatious that have been going on for months past on a plot of ground belonging to Herr Schabb, a manufaoc- turer at Treves, have resulted in. the discovery of & Roman private house, which will excite the interest of azxti- quaries almost as much as the famous pablic buildings at Augusta Trevirorum. The front of the house lies parallel with the principal street of the old Roman city. A number of blocks which served as pedestals f the wooden or stone pillars of apo ico still remain. The entrance is distinctly recognizable he- tween two buttresses and an immense beap of. stones A, long - entrance hall

running right through the bouse from frent to back is intersected by another corridor, so that the gigantic building is divided into four parts. Side corridors lead into the rcoms. Of these the mar- ble tessellated bathrooms for hot and cold water and warn air lie side by side and deserve special menticn. The two latte. were supplied with warm air through subterrunean passages. The es- cepe of the smoke was effected by means of hollow tiles laid on one another. The southwestern rooms have cellars under them. In a light court in the same part of the house there is a well preserved window, the first ever found in a Ro- man building.

The most interesting thing, however, is the magnificent and richly colored Mosaic floor, a rarity of the first order. Experts assign the building to the first helf of the fourth century, when Au- gusta Trevirorum attained the zenith of its splendor under Constantine and his sons. — Berlin Dispatch to London

Salmon That Jump Fifteen Feet.

The first fall on the Mingan is about three miles fromthe mouth. It is 46 feet high, in three pitches about equal in height and with seething pools be- tween. The spawning bedsof the salmon are on broad, gravelly bars far up the river. They must surmount this fall once a:year in order to reach them. We camped on a sand bar below the fall and watched the struggle. The broad pool below the fall was so full of these royal fish that their tails and dorsal. fins could constantly be seen, sticking out of the water. Every minute one or more fish would make arush from the depths below,-spring far intothe air, every fiber quivering, and time after time fall back, only the most powerful and deter- mined occasionally succeeding in pass- ing the first pitch. Above that every nook and crevice in the rocks where the salmon could obtain a resting place was crowded. Great monsters they were, weighing from 26 to 40 pounds. How they ever made the second and third pitches I do not know, for there was not the guod startiiig chatice that they had in the deep hole below the first pitch.—Frederic Irland in Scrib- ner’s.

Queer View of Dramatic Journalism.

A Londox music hall singer, having recovered damages ina suit for libel against a newspaper which criticised

‘her, a London weekly says: “If journa}-

ists have any esprit de corpa, or, indeed, spirit of any kind, they will neglect to notice any performers who refuse to ac- cept adverse criticism and absolutely to igzore them. If we do not stand togeth- erin these matters, the press may as well at once cease to pretend to express its unbiased jud@,ent on any thing or any- body. We shall be at the mercy of dny ‘artist’ who objects to anything but ser- vile adulation.’’ That seems to be as queer a view to take of the duties of the theatrical critié as that of the per- former who sued for libel or the jurors who geve her damages. As Stephen Blackpool remarked, ‘‘It’s a° a mud- dle.’’—New York Timea
