RAIN
"Before the Rain," and “After Rain
Are themes the scribe adores,
But should I write an ode to rain,
I’d call it “While It Pours.
I’d sing—not of the buttercup
That drinks the glittering drop,
But of the roof that leaks and
leaks,
And makes the whole house, sop.
Instead of glistening bending boughs
O’er silver sidewalks hung,
I’d make a line about the clothes
That wet about me clung.
I’d curse umbrellas, rubbercoats,
And everything that’s damp.
And when it came to overshoes—
My style you couldn’t cramp.
That “patter, patter, little drops,
Upon the window pain,
Is very sweet once in a while,
Not week after week again.

A WHOLESOME BAKED
DINNER
Most housewives do not realize
that oven dishes require really less
attention than those prepared on
top of the stove. But those who
are fortunate enough to have’self
basting enameled ware roasters,
know from experience that this Is
a fact. The old-fashioned way of
* basting the meat every ten minutes
or so did keep one almost con
stantly on the Job if the meat was
to be, well-flavored and browned,
The enameled ware roaster,
which not only roasts but bastes
as well, has eliminated all the at
tention and thought that the old
method Involved.
Roasts are said to be mucKbet
ter for one than fried foods and
an additional advantage la tn ■t
potatoes and vegetables can 1
roasted with the meat, which sav
considerable time. White and
Bermuda onions are on the market
now and for a change from the
usual boiled and creamed style of
preparing them, try roasting them
With the beef and potatoes.
Select a six-pound roast, wipe
with a damp cloth, sprinkle with
salt, pepper and flour and cook In
a very hot oven for twenty minutes.
Then place around the meat six
or eight large peeled potatoes and
the same number of medium sized
onions . Season the potatoes and j
onions, cover and cook at the same ,
temperature for forty-five minutes.:
REAL LEMON
MEHI.YGI E PIE
Homemade lemon meringue pie
Is always a real treat because the
llavor Is so different • from that i
which we get in restaurants or in
bakeries. Most restaurants have
good apple, peach, pineapple and
other fruit pies, but one seldom
gets tasty lemon pie. Thoy are |
frequently made with extracts and
are eggless.
The filling should be prepared
In an enameled ware double boiler ,
which Is impervious to acid In cit- ■
rus fruits. This ware will Insure j
^ the delicate color of the filling and
the result will be creamy and de
licious.
Beat the yolks of two eggs un
til light and then add two table
spnonruls (rounded) cornstarch,
which has been dissolved in a
little cold water. Add the grated
rind and Juice of one lemon and
one cupful sugar. Mix all thor
oughly and put Into an enameled
ware boiler. lastly add one cup
ful boiling water and cook until
If Ihlckens, stirring all the time.
For the pastry use one and one
half cupfuls prepared flour, one
half cupful butter or other shorten
ing and four to six tablespoonfuls
lee water. Roll out and cover a
deep enameled ware pie plate.
Prick well with a fork to prevent
bubbles. Bake in a hot oven.

BARED RICE
MEXICAN STYLE
Besides being easily prepared,
rice dishes are especially nourish
ing and a good substitute for pota
toes which, unless baked, cannot
be prepared in a short time.
Rice can be cooked in twenty
minutes and used at any time
thereafter for several days, The !
following recipe for Mexican baked
rice makes a very substantial “one
dish dinner” which is suitable for
busy days.
Cook one and one-quarter cup
fuls of rice in boiling salted water
for thirty minutes. Add one and
one-half cupfuls tomato juice, one
large green pepper cut up fine, one
half cupful chopped pimiento and i
a dash of pepper, Mix together !
thoroughly and pour into a well- i
buttered enameled ware baking
dish, the poreelaln-like surface of
which will not affect -or be af

On top place the tomato pulp, left
after straining the juice, Bake
thirty minutes in a hot oven.
Serve while hot.

MAKING FALL
CLEANING EASY
the approach of cool days
the average housewife begins to
think of her Kail housecleaning.
Although she is anxious to get her
winter rugs down, curtains and ,
draperies hung, the actual work
which precedes the fulfillment of
her mental picture is not at all
thrilling, But with proper equip
ment and planning it should be
comparatively easy, One room can
be done at a time and put in order
that the housewife is not faced
by disorder in every room. And,
with this method, the other mem
hers of the household aro not In
convenlenccd.
For the. floors and wpodwork it
is advisable to have two enameled
ware pails—one for scrub water
and one for rinsing. And for the
subbase and window casements a
sponge will be found much quicker
and more thorough than a cloth
because it works into the crevices
easily. Enameled ware bowls or
basins are also Indispensable for
the window cleaning. They can
be kept on the corner of the ~Ul
without interference.
At the end of each day’s clean
ing period the housewife will ap
preciate that there is nothing so
convenient to "use as enameled
ware. After a strenuous day this
equipment Is easily cleaned and It
Is not affected by strong soap,
cleanser and disinfectant solu
tions. 4
HGUSEHOLD SUGGESTIONS

the warm moist air will cause it to

“MURDERED MAN »
DENIES HE’S DEAD
OR EVEN INJURED
T
New Orleans, Sept. 30.—When
Milton Jacobs, a boiler maker of
New Orleans, read a newlpaper-dis
patch today from Houston, Texas,
that he had been murdered, he was
puzzled.
Texas advices last night stated a
man’s body, found on the Goose
creek road, near Houston, had been
identified by a fellow worker as Ja
cobs. The identification was be
lieved to have been partly confirmed
when reporters inquired at an ad
dress where Jacobs had formerly
resided here and were told that he
had gone to Baytown, Texas, a
small town near Houston, four
months ago.
Jacobs, when located today, said
he had been employed in Baytown
a month and since had been in New
Orleans. He knew of no one hav
ing papers or other articles that
would identify him as Jacobs.
