There were not many people in the place, and she almost bad it to herself, and no words can tell how she enjoyed it.

He happened to catch the glance, and as if he had euddenly remembered her exâ€" istence and proximity, he said: "Is this your first visit to the Zoo?" ‘"Yes," ahe replied. "My very first.

I am so fond of aniâ€" mals." * Thank you," she said, simply ; and as if his offer were quite a matter of course, and to be accepted as readily and naturâ€" ally as it was made. "Thie way, then," he said. They walked on eide by side. He did not look at ber curiously, admiringly, as most men, as nearly all the sons of man would aesuredly have done, but gazed straight before him as he had done when he bad come upon her; and he did not speak for some moments. There was indeed something so strange in his preoceupaâ€" tion that the girl began to think he had forgotten her; and she glanced up at him with a naive, halfâ€"mischievious smile in her eyes. He happened to catch the glance, and ss if he bhad suddenty remembared har ar. So she smiled at him with her eloquent mouth, with her frank blue eyes, and the man looked gravely into the face, scarceâ€" ly noting its fascination. ‘‘Where did you leave them?" he asked. "Under the trees on the lawn by the lions‘ cage," she replied. "I strolled in there and wandered further than 1 inâ€" tended; when I came back they were gone." "No doubt they only left for a time; they may have gone back." he said. "Oh, do you think so>" she eaid, with a touch of relief in her voice, a smile in her eyes. "But I can‘t find it again. I‘ve gone round and round until I feel as if 1 were in a maze." He smiled. "I think I know the place you mean; and if you will allow me, I will take you back to it." _‘Thank you,." she said simnlyv: and us will have power to its very depths!" gaid, listlessly.

He looked at her with a listless kind of ecrutiny. "Reventeenâ€"cighteenâ€"" She put the cake down, and stared at him with girlish indignation. "How absurd! I am nearly twenty!" He was eurprised, and he looked itâ€" faintly. "Really ?" ‘"Yes, really. You are like aunt. She is alwaye telling me that I look like a girl, and imploring me to remember that I am a womanâ€"as if it made any difâ€" ference." She smiled at him with innocent amuse ment. "Are youâ€"old?" she said. The eimpliâ€" city of the queetion, to eay nothing of ite frankness, brought a fullâ€"blown emue to his face; and certaialy he did not kok old at that moment. "It all depends upon what you eall old," he said. "I am afraid I should seem to you very aged." She thought a moment. "Aunt says that a man is as old as he feels, and a woman as old as whe looks."

Rhubarb pudding, which is a faâ€" vorite with children, is made on the order of apple brown betty. To make it cut the rhubarb in pieces, put a layer of it in a pudding dish, cover it with sugar and then a layâ€" er of bread and butter. Alternate layers of fruit and bread until the dish is filled. Cover it and bake it half an hour, remove the cover and bake ten minutes longer. _ Serve with a hot sauce of any desired fiaâ€" vor. _ Rhubarb cobbler, made without an under crust, of course, is a deâ€" licious luncheon dish for the devotee of rhubarb. To make it prepare a batter of a cupful of sour milk, a halfâ€"teaspoonful of soda dissolved in a little cold water added to the milk, a tablespoonful of butter and enough flour to make a medium batter. Put rhubarb, cut in short lengths, in a pudding dish and suâ€" gar it generously. Then pour over it the batter. Bake it in a moderate oven. Serve it hot with boiled cusâ€" tard or sugar and cream. When making rhubarb tarts preâ€" pare the rhubarb and the crusts separately. Bake crisp crusts in muffin rings. Wash, dry and skin rhubarb stalks, cut them in inch pieces and stew them slowly until perfectly tender with a very little water. Add sugar when they are taken from the stove while they are still hot. Chill the rhubarb and at the last minute put it into the erusts. _ Pies and tarts of rhubarb are old favorites. There is a good deal of difficulty experienced in making them, because of the fact that rhuâ€" barb is generally so juicy that it soaks the under crust. To lessen the amount of juice do not use any water in the preparation of the rhuâ€" barb. Cut the stalks after they are washed, dried and skinned in halfâ€" inch lengths, cover them with suâ€" gar and put them in the crust. There can be two crusts or the top of the pie can be barred with pasâ€" trv. Rhubarb is one of the spring's; blessings. Its list of healthâ€"giving! possibilities is almost endless and | its advocates as the giver of beauty | are numbered by scores. | If you happen to have a whole stale loaf left over here is a fasâ€" cinating way to use it. Cut off all the crust, put it on a tin, and set in the oven to dry and brown. When f it is a light, golden brown lay it on the molding board and crush fme.l Then cut the crustless loaf into piecâ€" . es one inch thick and two or threeI inches long; beat two eggs very | \light, add two cups of sweet milk | |and a pinch of salt, dip the pieces ; f“f bread in the mixture, roll in | the fine bread crumbs, and drop 'Lhem into hot lard. When they are| ‘fried a nice brown put them on a! hot «lish and sprinkle thickly with: Isugar and a little fine cinnamon. | Another way is to make our old friend, French or Spanish toast, which is good forâ€" breakfast or luncheon. Cut rather thick slices of bread, dip in milk, then in beatâ€" en egg and fry a delicate brown. Serve this very hot, and if possible with maple syrup. Or cut the bread in oneâ€"inch squares, put in a colander and dash cold water over them. Then fry the squares in butter until they are a delicate brown. Break two egas over them, cook three mifflutes and serve immediately. This is partiâ€" cularly good for breakfast. d Ways of Cooking Rhubarb. Home Hints. To roast blanched almonds, put them in a bowl and thoroughly mix two tablespoonfuls of olive oil and a tablespoonful of dry salt for every pound of nuts with them. _ Then place them in a greased paper bag, tie it a* the top and roast them for ten minutes, shaking occasionally. To open a window which sticks from dampness, take each window cord on the upper part of the winâ€" dow in hand at the same time and pull until the weights are up at the top. Let go suddenly and the force of their fall will start the most obstreperous window. A cupful of cocoanut beaten into a pint of cream that has been whipâ€" ped light and dry and flavored with a little extract of bitter almond makes a delicious filling for layer cakes, or may be served in a cake that has had the inside part taken out and the outside left for a shell. To renew chiffon, spread a wet cloth over a very hot iron and hold the chiffon over the steam until it is free from wrinkles. Repeat the process with another hot iron and wet cloth as soon as the steam beâ€" gins to flow feebly. â€" The chiffon should be dried quickly. In stuffing tomatoes, use as many cracker or bread crumbs as there is pulp, and season the mixture with pepper, butter and plenty of salt, as well as with a few drops of onion juice.
