Arrange the thickest part of the steak toward the back of the broiler. At first bold close to the coals. 'l‘urn every ten sec- onds until both sides are well scared, then turn each half minute A steak one inch thick will broil in from four in six minutes if liked rare; a little longer if preferred well done. thn hair done season both sidis with salt and pepper. Let a spoonful of butter melt on the hot platter. Hold the steak for a half minute over paper to let sooty fat drip off. Lay on the platter and turn once that both sides may be but- trred. Broiled Chicken.â€"Singe, split down the back. clean, and wipe with a damp clcth. Rub inside and out with a little butter, then sprinkle with salt and pop- .per. Arrange on a greased wire broiler. Cook with flesh side toward the fire ul first. When scared hold a little farther away from the fire. Turn occasionally on the skin side, but be careful, as it readily scorchcs. A chicken weighing two pounds and a half will take from fifteen to twenty minutes: if not well done, it will be tough. Transfer to a hot platter and rub again with butter. Chestnut Stuffing for Roast Goose. â€"â€" Roast about fifty chestnuts. according to the size of the goose, peel them, ic- move the inner skin, and pound them to a paste or rub them through a sieve; add some chopped parsley and shallots, a large lump of the best fresh butter, the yolks of two or three eggs well beat- en, and the finely minced liver of the goose. Season with salt and pepper. Singe. draw, and truss the goose in the usual way, but do not bone it; stuff it with the chestnut farce and roast it. A lemon. very thinly peeled so that there is a thick white rind all round it. will absorb a great deal of the rich fat if it. is placed in the goose while roasting, and removed before serving. The lemon must be thrown away, as it will be full of fat. Fish Pieâ€"Take the piece of pastry re« maining over from, say, an apple-tart, roll it out thinly, line a pic dish with it. (Note: roll it well over the edges of the pieâ€"dish, so that it cannot shrink.) Bake it. Reserve it. \\'hcn dinner is over take the remains of any cold boiled fish which may be on hand, free it from skin and bone, flake it neatly. Have ready half a pint of either Bechamel sauce or melted butter. Add to this the flaked fish, twopennyworth of picked shrimps, and two hardâ€"boiled egg, roughly chopped. Mix. Season to taste with pepper, salt, and a little essence of anchovy. Place on a plate. and reserve. In the morning fill the lined pic-dish with the mixture. Cover the top with fried breadâ€"crumbs. Place a few bits of butter here and there. Make very hot. in the oven, and serve with buttered toast, handed separately. If the. sauce is made at the same time as the fish sauce for dinner. this dish only takes a few minutes to prepare.

Health Restored by the Rich Blood Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Actually Make. Thousands and thousands of young girls throughout Canada are literally passing into hopeless decline for the want of the new rich red blood so abundantly supplied by Dr. \Villiams‘ Pink Pills. They are dislrcssingiy weak. pale or sallow, appetite fickle, snbjccl to headaches. dizziness. anc breathless and the heart palpilatcs vio- lently at the least exertion. The doc- tors call this anaemiaâ€"which is the mcdical name for bloodlcssness.. Dr. \\'illiams’ Pink Pills actually make new bloodâ€"they cure anaemia just as sure- ly as food cures hunger. llcre is a bit of the strongcst kind of evidence: “Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills and nothing else saved my two daughters when doctors had failed to help them." This state- ment is made by Mrs. Joseph Martel, St. Olivcr street, Quebec. She adds: “My daughters are aged respectively twenty-two and twenty-three years. For two years they suffered from the weak- ness and distress of anaemia, and had .' learned of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills earlier, it would not only have saved me money. but much worry and anxi- cty as well. Both girls were as pale as a slicct. They suffered from head- aches. poor appetile. and grew so feeble that they could hardly go about. They were under a doctor’s care. but‘did not improve a bit. I despaired of ever see- ing them in good hcalth again, when a friend called my attention to Dr. Wil- linms’ Pink Pills.

A few of the cases which he cites are noted here: Strangely enough, something like pay- ment in produce may be found in the practice of the greatest physicians and surgeons, for when a doctor has attend- ed a king or queen or one of the royal family it has been the custom from time innnemorial to reward him partly in rank. For example, take the case Li the late Sir Morell Mackenzie: Fre'lcrick, Crown Prince of Prussia and heir to the imperial throne of Ger- many. was suffering from an incurable disease.

Rats Declared by Scientists to be Prolific Propagaiors oi Plague. Scientists are thoroughly convinced that rats are the most prolific propaga- tors of the plague, and a campaign of extermination has been begun against them in Japan. No less than 4,820,000 rats have been killed in 'l‘okio alone since 1301'). A Japanese scientist says: “All the civilized nations have to fight.’_ this common enemy, the plague. ll believe that there ought to be an inter- national conference to discuss a plan; collect money and organize an internaa lion-.11 army to fight and vanquish this; disease from the surfa’cc of the carth.i The expedition should be sent to the: region of India and South China. The expense needed for such an enterprise‘ would Le only a small part of what that civilized nations are spending for their- armies and navies.’ Says the Japan Timeszâ€"“A dcsperatei light took place between two parties otl frogs, each composed of not less thanl 10.000. in a large ditch in Ojimura, it‘d-j rima prefecture, on a recent afternoon,' Toward t) in the evening the operation, bccamc very hat, a corps of about 4,00011 slanding firmly in the ditch against twoi cthcr corps of over 3,000 each, which{ apparently seemed to be the invadingl army.

It is about the size of a pigeon” with a tail of extraordinary length. end- mg in a tip of brilliant scarlet. It has a sharp hooked beak, and frequents marshus and stagnant pools. The wn-‘ oin with which it inoculate; is distilled , in a set of organs which lie in the up- prr mandible, just below the openings of the nostrils. Under them, in the roof of the mouth, is a small fleshy knob. When the bird sets its bcak in the flesh of a victim this knob receives a pressure which lihcrnlcs the venom and inoculatcs the wound. DOWAGER EMPRESS. The rank of dowager empress would not only be much higher rank, but it would give her a greater allowance-a higher salary, so to speak. Nor is this all. As cn’lpcror, Frederick could do far more for his younger children than he could as crown prince. It is easy to see why it was so important that he should survive his father. Of course, the love that his wife and childran bore him was the most important ele- ment of all in their wish to prolong his existence. On the other hand, it has been al- leged that there existed in the German Court a party so hostile to the Crown Princess that they hoped her husband would die before his aged father. But this party was disappointed. The dis- ease of the Crown Prince was cancer of the throat, and Dr. Morcll Mackenzie, cf London, stood at the head of all throat specialists in Europe. He was sent for, and the work of keeping die Crown Prince alive as long as possible was given him. There is a certain grim humor about the pictures of these two men, the Em- peror and his son, each certain to die soon, and each in the hands of men whose main object was to prolong the life of the patient. Dr. Mackenzie won, and then came the question of his fcc. He had done much, very much. for Queen Victoria's daughtcr; nor were any of the family ungrateful. He received. it is said. one hundred thousand dollars in cash and the title of baronct. Nor was the latter regard the smaller. Great as had been the prac- lECC of Dr. Mackenzie before. it was larger afterwards, and he could CHARGE LARGER FEES. When the Prince of Wales was sick at Sandringham, his physician, Sir Wil- liam (lull, received for four weeks” at- tcndance fifty thousand dollars and the title of baronct.
