The proposal to make a tunnel from Great Britain to Ireland was discussed at. the Engineering Con- o-w- - _ Mr. James Barton, a member of the council of the Institute of Civil Engineers, read a paper dealing ex- haustively with the practical details of the scheme, says the London Daily Mail. _¢ . ‘ ,.

It passes round ~a. curve of a. mile radius at the head of the Beau- !ort Dyke at sixteen miles, and ‘reachcs the shore line at the Island 'of Magce, Co.

Perhaps because it is one of the commonest fruits. the apple is not commended nearly as much as it ought to be as a steady article of lead. A person who eats many ap- ples in their natural state, will rare- ly. it ever. be troubled with dyspep- sia. One apple a day will go a long way towards keeping a person heal- thy. The old theory that apples should not be eaten at night seems to be exxloded, and nowadays wei hear of a beauty doctor recommend-' :ing her patients to eat an apple 'ehortly before bed-time. The apple is worth most as a health-giver in its natural state, but even as a cooked article of iood it is to be very highly recommended. Apple sauce eaten with pork, will aid the digestion of the meat. and many peeple who cannot eat Pork alone, can Iartake of it with safetx, if it is accompanied by plenty of weil cooked apple sauce, not too sweet. There are many ways oi cooking apples to make delicious and palat- able desserts. It must be borne in mind, however, that all apples are not suitable for cooking, and that a moderately tart apple is always to be preferred to a sweet one. Indeed. the sweet apple will rarely “fall away" in cooking, as do the Green- ings, the Baldwins, and the . Fall Pippina. Baked Aplples with Nutsâ€"Black’ walnuts or hickory nuts are best For eight large apples, a cupiul oi nutmeats will be needed. Allow two teaspoonfuls of granulated sugar to each apple. Chop the nut meats fine and add them to the sugar. Gore the apples, and fill the centres with the sugar and nuts. They should be baked in a dripping pan and placed; not too close together. Put three. drops of vanilla into each apple.- Pour a cupful of boiling water in the$ pan, and bake in a quick oven until ‘the apples begin to tall. Let them cool just a little, and then take the apples up carefully, and place them in a deep glass dish. Pour the juice lwhich has run out into the pan over' the apples. Whip the white of two eggs to a still hoth, beat in thor- oughly the thiec tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar and a few drops of vanilla. Garnish the apples with this when they are quite cold, and if liked, add a handful of preserved cherries. ‘ Apple and Rice Pudding.-Cook a‘ large cupful of rice in boiling salted water fifteen minutes. Drain, add two cupfuls of milk, and cook very slowly till the milk is all absorbed, being careful that the rice does not scorch. Add three eggs, a pinch of salt, and a piece of butter the size of an egg with four tablespoonfuls of sugar. Mix well, but carefully, so as not to break the rice grains. Well butter the bottom of a pudding dish, and cover it with a layer of the rice. On this put a layer of tart apples, peeled. cored, and sliced, sprinkle a little sugar and a dust of nutmeg over the apples. Fill the idish with alternate layers of rice and apples, having rice on tep. Cov- er closely and bake twenty minutes. after which remove the cover and let the pudding brown. Serve hot or cold with hard sauce or sweet thick cream. Apple V'fapioca Pudding.â€" Cover a cupful o! flake tapioca with cold wa- ter.

For this he was compensated by the lknowledge that it he succeeded he would reap a fortune. Three times ihe deferred his marriage because he had not completed his invention; he .wanted the thing done ready to be .oflcred to lilucly purchasers before he itook unto himself a wile. When a man is on hlo honeymoon he does not expect to make money; on the other hnnd he certalnly does not expect these early daya of wed- ded bliss to quite ruin him. Buta cruel late decreed that a honeymoon should ruin a young electrical enam- eer who recently passed through the English bankruptcy courts. A week beiore the date finally fixed for his marriage he saw himself with- in sight of the end of his labors, and hoping to complete the invention in that time he allowed the date of the happy event to stand. He did finish the invention. but he had not time to patent it, which he did, however. Infinitely worse was the case of u' 13011111; soiicitm who, on the strength !of having a friend in a position to give him most valuable financial ad- ixicc.

He had not;‘ he was far too honorable a man. but ‘it chanced a few months before his ‘niarriage he had paid a lady client a , small sum she had entrusted to him, and he had nut obtained a receipt .;for it nor recorded the payment in -; his books. In the meantime Thus his invention was valuelcss. his time wasted, and some 815,000 thrown away because he had not had time to apply for a patent before leaving {or his honeymoon.
