If you re overworked, “ run- ! w |, pi w . * ” ’ “ A Spaniard never commit* the heresy of mixing wine and water: he says it is spoiling two good things. A goodly sixes! loaf of bread flanks each plate. The soup tureen is first handed ronnd, and. although its content* are a trifle greasy, nothing can be more nourishing. It is compounded of all the good things that go to make np the classical cocido or pnchero. The substantial portion with which the soap is made is placed in three separate dishes and served np immediately afterward. On one dish figure large, thick slices of boiled beef and pieces of fowl with slices of bacon: on another appear the garbanzoe. or chick pea*, and on the third are the veg etables with slices of chorixo.or u The cocido is usually eaten as though in some houses tomato sauce is added. The pnchero, or cocido, takes its name from the pewter pot tn which 4 is slowly boiled. In every well regu lated home throughout Spain the cocido la made once a day. and a right good thing it is, ae at any hoar yon may chance to need a cap of broth you can .be. applied with it. The next dish is the frito. Frito means a fry. and the dish usually consists of fried brains, fried sweetbread, croquettes of fowl, etc. In no country are things fried better than in Spain, because good olive oil is used to fry them In, and oil makes thorn delicacies more crispy. That Spanish oil may be turned to good account for anything in cooking will no doubt cause unbounded surprise. There is no deny ing the fact, however. Food ill prepared with oil is no doubt a trying case in so far as the palate and nostrils are con cerned, bnt a good Spanish cook knows well how to disguise the taste of the oil in many ways. The simplest and perhaps the best ad vice is to let the oil come to a boiling point and to throw in a piece of bread, which is taken ont as soon as it becomes brown and thrown away. Thia takes off any bad taste the oil may hare. The pan la then carried to an open window and - the steam blown sway, a process which as effectually dean it of any un savory smell.—Boston Transcript down,” or debilitated, you need it. It’s an invigorating, restorative tonic, and a soothing and strength ening nervine, imparting tone and vigor to the whole system. It’s a legitimate medicine, too—carefully compounded by an experienced phy sician, and adapted to woman’s deli cate > organisation. For all the chronio weaknesses, functional de rangements, and painful disorders peculiar to the sex, it is an unfailing remedy. It’s because it is unfail ing that it can be sold under a posi tive guarantee. If it fails to give satisfaction, in any case , for which it's recommended, the money paid for it will be promptly returned. It is a legitimate median*—not a beverage. Contain* no alcohol to inebriate; no syrup or sugar to ■oar or ferment in the stomach .and cause distress. As peculiar in its marvelous, remedial results as in its composition. A. T.
