We listen to tales of serviints' misdeeds, we talk of clothes and the ongoings of our neigh- bors, and we never let on that we would rathar talk of p'>etry. So. No. A daft-like thing for either an old wo- man or a young one to speak of. Only when we are alone â€" Jean and Augusta and Lewis Elliot and I â€" we 'tire the sun with talking and send it down the sky.' . . . Miss Reston, Lewis Elliot tells me he knew you very well at one time." "Yes, away at the beginning of things. I adored him when I was Af- teen and he was twenty. He was won- derfully good to me and Biddy â€" my brother. It is delightful to find an old friend in a new place." "I'm very fond of Lewis." said Mrs. Hope, "but I arish to goodness he had never inherited I/averlaw. He might have dor.e a lot in the world with nia brain and his heart and his courage, but ti.ere he is contentedly settled in that green glen of his, and greatly ab- sori>ed in sheep.

Mrs. Arthur Roe sends this recipe for a very fine lemon pie that ia made with bread crumbs: One cupful of sugar, 1 cupful of cold water, 1 cupful of bread crumbs, Juice and rind of one lemon, 2 eggs, pinch of salt, 2 tbsp. butter. Cover the bread with the water and leave to soak for twenty minutes. Add the egg yolks slightly beaten, juice and grated rind of lemon, melted butter, salt and sugar. Mix all thoroughly. Line a pie pan with good pastry and pour in the filling. Bake thirty min- utes in a moderately hot oven, cover with meringue made of the whites of the two eggs and two tablespoonfuls of sugar; brown lightly.
