Beneath the front section will be storerooms, while under the kitchen will be located the bakery and cold storage plant. The three dining rooms for patients, seating altogether 400 men, and each 46xC0 feet, will oc cupy the main floor of the front por tion. Dining rooms for male and fe male employes will be placed at op posite ends of the kitchen. Quarters for employes will be arranged on the second floor of the main building. NEW rTILITT BUILDINGS. Four new utility buildings and 180 additional tents will be added as soon as the three buildings mentioned have been completed. These will give ca pacity, including the facilities of the receiving hospital, for 400 patients.

E. E BORN Merchant Tailor DC HUNTING TRUFFLES. In France They Train Dogs to Find the - Prixed Plants. Truffles, like mushrooms, belong to the family of the fungi, but are a dis tinct and very peculiar genus. They are cryptogamic plants and subter ranean, their position underneath the soil varying from two to three inches to two feet in depth. They have no root, stem or leaf and vary in color from light brown to black. They are sometimes globular in form and vary in size frem that of a pecan nut to that of a duck's egg. Their, surf ace is watery and covered with a skin. Their exact method of growth ia not precisely known. They are, of course, regarded as a great luxury by the epicure. Triffies are mentioned by Juvenal, Pliny, Plutarch and Martial. The Athenian epicures were acquainted with them, and a story is told of a boa vlvant who freed a whole family of slaves who had invented a delicious method of preparing them. France has the credit of producing the finest truffles. Dogs are commonly bred to search tor them. The method of "breaking" -these dogs is to give them for a time pieces of truffles every morning before they are allowed to partake of any other food. After a certain period, when their appetite for truffles increases, plecai are hidden In the ground, and they are made to find them. Thus they are gradually taught their busi ness, though It often takes as long aa eighteen months before a dog becomes skilled In the art In some parts of France Potton and Perigord, tor Instance pigs aw train ed for truffle hunting, . and by some they are deemed to be better fitted for this work than dogs.

And yet be would have been right. 4 james Bennington did not know him self. Those instincts and sentiments were lying dormant and waiting. Ilka newly-planted potatoes, for their chance to grow and expand. Even tbe chevalier stunt comes to tlm who waits, and though it had lain in ambush for many long years. It VUO.UJ appeared In the open. Business called him to Liverpool. and he went to New York to take ooe of the slow steamers to that famous port. Frieuds of bis warned him against many perils, but strangely IhBttffh If.. fn,.A . LI " w warn biui against the main one. Ills steamer had not sailed yet , when be made the acquaintance of Miss Ettle Clay. It was one of those simple events that ere always occur ring aboard a passenger steamer, even wben she is fast to hr dock. The lady dropped her handkerchief on dack ud h nirkf It , m.A m. uorsd it, an! lo! they were acquaint J It was not until several hours later. cownw, mil me young lady gave him her confidence. Then she was rather forced to do so. The passage red been booked for her aunt and tcrJtlf. and seme dreadful accident must have detained the aunt at the l&&t moment. Indeed, until the steam-v-i.s miles down the river. It was be Vj f d that her relative -was on tiTd I Tke captain was of course appealed to, but be could do nothing. Owners and officers of ocean liners do not 1 know aunts from uncles, and the tears and sobs of nieces have no ef fect on them. Miss Clay's Aunt Sarah must come on the next boat or give up the trip. Miss Clay herself must wipe her weeping cures and prepare them ready to tee whaies and icebergs. She must confide In some one. and why not in Chevalier Pennington T As they sat together in the moonlight she did not hesitate to tell him that she had read romance, courage and nobility of character in his face at first glance. Mr. Pennington. In bis home city, was carrying on the business of sell ing sand, lime and guano at whole sale and retail, sod the compliments of the young lady at his side made his heart swell, determining him to buy some adjacent property and add the cement buslneea. Days afterward, when he came to think of that moonlight talk on deck- he could remember that he told Miss Clay ail there was to tell, even to his stealing eggs wnen a ooy, ana that though she had talked a whole lot she had really tc4d bnn nothing. It csu not be truthfully said that Mr. Pennington tell In love at first sight. r that be fell In love at alL He had got into the rut of the aana, lime and guano business, and he was not a man wbo cared for changes. Miss Cay did not seek to arouse his love. he wanted to look on him as her chevalier and knight for the voyage the sturdy oak from the shores of lake Erie to which the ding ing vine misbt cllcg. and that's how that moonlight night settled things. The steamer did not ooIHde nor founder nor attempt to stand on her bead. went ahead in a manner that called out enconlums, and every body was happy. Mr. Pennington found himself In full charge of Miss Clay, snd both of thrm rather liked the situation. Tbe sturdy cak brared himself, and the clinging -ine clung. At the end of the third day, how ever, something descended nnnn tha decks of that ship with a flop. It was as if a farmer had thrown a summer squash against the port side of an old brlndle cow. One of the lady pas seogera had missed three diamond rings and a bracelet from her state room. They try to keep all such matters 6on why they are speedily known to her eye as she looked at her neigh bor. There was a thief aboard, and with great unanimity it was declared that tbe said thief must be a female. The stewardesses were given the "third degree" by the captain without avail, and then suspclon was turned loose on the passenger list. How It came about that the demure Miss Clay was suspected no one could explain, but the finger pointed at be sat in his cabin debating the mat ter In hand with himself, the young lady and Mr. Pennington sat side by side in their deck-chairs. She seemed to snuggle up to htih closer than usual, and the sturdy oak was pleased and glad. They had talked of lonely lives made happy by lust such chance meetings as this, and he was about to ask her business opinion of adding cement to the other commodities when a message reached THE TOTJJiG LADY AND MR. PENNINGTON SAT BIDE BT SIDE IN THEIR DflCK CHAIRS. There was talk, and talk and more talk, and then the theft was of course laid to a steward of the ship and nothing more done about it. Next day two other rings were missing and on the next a bracelet and $100 in bills. Then ihe passen gers began to ait up and take notice, and eTery woman had suspicion in her, and before she got a hint of It the captain was being threatened with tbe law and lots of other things if he did not order her stateroom searched. The responsibility was great. If the stolen Jewelry was not found there. Miss Clsy had an action In law, and be would lose his command.' As him that his presence was desired In the captain's eabin. He hastened away, and the first 30 words spoken to him censed him to wave his arm about bis bead and dramatically ex claim: "Never, captain never in this jtm heri : Hov due they say such a thing how dare they!" "But if she is Innocent the search can do no harm, and I give you every assurance that it will be quietly con ducted." "But It shall never be entered up on, sir I Miss Clay's reputation Is sboave reproach in all directions. Show me the man or woman that doubts her and I will make them kneel und ask her forgiveness." "But two ladles claim to have seen her coming from one of tbe state rooms that was robbed," insisted the captain. "They may nave been mistaken. I hope by a search to prove that such is the ease." "Captain," replied Mr. Pennington as he drew himself up and folded his arms, "1 have known Miss Clay for years. In fact, we are engaged. Yon most and you shall not shame her and me by any such search as proposed. I will protect her at any cost." The speech was good, what there was of it. Had Miss Clay beard It she might have advised tbe orator to go on the stage Instead of going in for cement. Being defied in his own cabin aroused the captain's ire. He said the search should be made, and wben Mr. Pennington got ready to shed his last drop of blood be was trotted away and locked up In his own stateroom. This had scarcely been accom plished when the demure Miss Clay came forward with a smile on her face and said that owing to the em barrassing situation she would be one of the first to ask to have her belong ings searched. "ThsJt girl is a trump!" was the mental ejaculation of the captain: and 10 minutes lster the proposed search was being made. v,Nothlng whatever was found to tn cVtmlnate Miss Clay. Nothing what ever was found to incriminate a dosen .tother ladles who insisted on s search of truats and hand bags. Then ev erybody asked themselves and each ether over again: "Who can It be!" The query was soon answered. Mr. Pennington was liberated from dur ance vile and had Just promised the eaptaln a suit of $50,000 damage on arrival In England when he In stinctively thrust one of his hands into the side pocket that Miss Clay had cuddled against for hours before. He felt a package and drew It out. , but the captain reached for it and saved blm the trouble of ODanlna- It. The package was made up of tbe missing Jewelry. Of course a sensation followed. Of course Mr. Pennington protested. It would have looked better for him It chivalry had not forced him to pre varicate about Miss Clsy. She prompt ly denltd having known blm for an hour before coming aboard. As for the engagement be bad affirmed, was it likely that she would marry any such man? Mr. Pennington went under lock and key. There was no wireless in those days, and if there had been hu had been caught with the goods on trim. Among tbe passengers were seven Christian Endeavor people, five " Y. M. C. A.'s' four prohibitionists and nine missionaries going ' abroad to convert the heathen. They took turns at Interviewing the p'laooer and pleading with blm to mend his ways. As for Miss Clay, she simply went to the door of his stateroom and rapped it and called him a bad. bad man. At Liverpool be was turned over to the police, and though none of the passengers would press a charge, they found a way of keeping him in Jail for the next sis weeks. He would not have been released then had not a detective said: "Well. I've got her at last . Bhe'a as slick as they make ei Of course, when she knew there was a stir about the stolen stuff she unloaded on you. cut it out alter tbts, my friend. Ge Into cement, if yon -111, but let up on chivalry. It makes yon a soft mark." ,
