I shrank perceptibly as we came near it, and Jim Pierce smiled reassuringly as he deftly skirted it and sent the canoe swiftly along the more placid waters of midstteam. “Don’t you worry, Miss, heartily. “You ain’t goin’ to taste Lumbee river water as long as Plerce is guidin’ the boat—that is, if you sit stll. It might be a different story if you had that Tim in the next boat. He's a hellion, if ever there was one, always tryin' tricks and showin’ off his fancy paddlin. Now I say there's times for exhibition work, but they ain't when you've got passenters with you. A guide's job is to land his passengers safe at their des-ti-nation, an' keep 'em from gel- tin' nervous. Don't you agree with me?” “Absolutely,” T said, smiling invol- antarily at his whimsical way of put- ting things. But my eyes were fur- tively watching the man named Tim. I fully agreed with Jim Plerce’s charac- terization of his as a ‘“hellion,” though justice compelled me to admit that the only thing I knew against the man was the fact that Grace Draper had employed him as a mes- senger to bring me her plea for par- don But 1 could not get rid of the feeling that anyone even remotely as- sociated with Grace Draper must be evil ! or have An Explanation. One thing concerning his presence in the boats puzzled me, however. ‘When I first caught sight of him I had wondered If he had been keeping track of my movements, and had come upon this day simply because I was to be of the party. But Jim Plerce’s reference to him seemed to imply that his employment upon the river was a repular thing. I sum- moned my courage to speak casually in answer to his observations. “I wonder that the company allow #0 reckless a guide,” I safd, looking toward the canoe which the man named Tim was guiding skillfully enough, I had to admit. “They wouldn’t have him only that guides are ny scarce,” Jim Pierce re- turned, as we shot around a curve in the river and were completely shut oft from view of both the canies ahead and behind us. “And he only works when they have a big crowd on hand. He's what they call an extra hand. Most times he runs a taxicab over at Cedar Croft. But this is good money, and he'll quit his taxi any day they send for him over here. I ain’t sayin’ he don’t know the river, for he does, turn and trick in it—he was brought up on it from a baby—but that's the only matter with him. And with & river like this, with as many turns and kinks in it as there is In a pig's tail, there ain't no use in taking chances.” \ I mentally assented most heartily to his words. But I made him no verbal reply, for he was glancing keenly from side to side of the river, and I saw that it was no time for conversation. And for the next few minutes, as Jim Plerce, with steady hand and clear eves, guided the canoe through twists and torns and doublings which made me lose all sense of the direction in which we were traveling, I thanked my stars that Fate had put me in this canoe instead of in that guided by the man named Tim.

Lee and J. J. Shubert will present as the Christ- mas attraction at Parsons’ theater, Hartford, beginning Monday night, with matinees on Wednesday and on Christmas Day, Saturday- Owing to the length of the performance, the curtain will rise at eight o'clock | sharp at night and at two o’clock at the matinees. A spice of originality seasons “The Passing Show of 1919,” in its artful blend of travesty, spectacle and re- vue. Opening with a prologue on Mount Olympus, the pagan deities wre disclosed sympathizing with the mortals of earth who have been de- prived of good cheer and the flowing bowl. Prohibition is amusingly ex- ploited in the next scene showing the horder lying between Canada and the United States, where “blind pigs” are operated. Ancient Salem in the days of witcheraft, King Solomon's kitchen, the palace of that potentate, a water- ! lily pond in full bloom, the Roads of Destiny, Florence in mediaeval times, a love boat in China, a doctor’s shop where a Yiddish patient undergoes the ordeal of psychoanalysis, a sum- mer garden and finally a modern ball- room constitute the principal scenes of the revue.

Novel desserts are apt to be overly expensive or difficult of prepar- ation, but there is a new sweet that is easy, quick and cheap—as things 0. First of all make a good, tender pie crust. Pie Crust 3-4 cup flour 2 tablespoons lard 1 tablespoon butter 1-4 teaspoon salt 1-2 teaspoon baking powder ice water The lard and butter should be very cold. Mix dry ingredients thoroughly. Rub shortening into flour with tips of fingers till the mixture looks like coarse corn meal. Add water, knead- ing lightly. Use as little water as pos- | sible, just enough to make the dough. " Roll on a floured board to about one- fourth inch thickness, keeping the shape round. Put in a floured pie pan and bake in a moderate oven. The crust shculd be pricked with a fork to keep it from drawing out of shape during the baking, Let cool before using. Make a meringue of the whites of 2 eggs and 6 tablespoons sugar, The meringue must be made with a whisk beater. Beat the whites till stiff and {dry and then beat in the sugar a tablespoonful at a time. When ready The Three Martells for dessert fill the pie crust with ice cream, plain vanilla or chocolate. The crust should be deep enough to hold about an inch layer of cream and leave haif an inch for the meringue. Spread the meringue evenly over the ice cream covering it tightly. Put in a very hot oven or under the broiler for 2 or 3 minutes to brown the top. Serve at once. This dessert reminds one cof baked Alaska, but is so simple thdt any hostess might prepare it. The meringue can be made before the meal is served and the shell baked early in the morning. To fill the crust ‘with the cream and cover with the eggs is but a minute’s work, 8o many fancy dishes are so elabarate and take so much time at the last minute that the hostess who is also cook can't serve them. Menu for TOmorrow Breakfast—Stewed prunes, creamed dried beef, baking powder - biscuits, coffee. Luncheéon—Spanish rice, ‘brown bread and butter, apple snow, cookies, tea. Dinner—Lamb chops, potatoes in cream sauce, canned string beans, pimento salad, date and nut pudding, coffee. Doing the right thing at the right time— that's luck.
