One day when Mrs. Bell was mak- J ing a neighborly call on Mrs. Ellia j the latter, in the presence or her caller, discharged her colored maid, j whose obstreperousness could be | borne with no longer. A few weeks later Mrs. Bell again called on Mrs. Ellis, and to her surprise her hostess informed her that Clara was back. The services of the maid were re- j quired by her mistress, who pressed the button In the drawing room. There was. however, no response.

From remotest Mexico comes this recipe for chill con carne. which is capable of warming whatever cockles 'he heart may have and of diffusing ralories to one's works at large: First ;omes a fire of logs in the open. Second ;omes an olla of generous proportions. Into the olla put a gallon of water and plenty of the hot chilis, and in that region of Mexico they ripen so hot that lot even the rattlesnake will dare take refuge in their shade. Upon this beginning lay as much of a side of beef n one piece as may be squeezed into ^ c? An fKln aI In or?rl LliC (juu OCt IUC tuici ull luio vita auu ute it down with clay.

The Love Affairs of Handel. Women greatly admired Handel, who was very bandsome, but the serenity of the composer seems only to have been ruffled twice by love on bis partv. His first attachment was to i London girl, a member of the aristocracy. Her parents believed bim jeneath her in social position, but were ?ood enough to say that if he abstained from writing any more music the question of marriage might be entertained It was easier to abstain !rom their daughter than from his art ind he did so. Years after almost the same thing occurred. Handel and an)ther beautiful pupil of his fell in love with each other, and proud parents *ave him the choice between giving ap his profession or their daughter, dusic, "heavenly maid," was chosen.? *The Love Affairs of Some Famous den."
