PREPARING THE PAPER BAG.
By ELIZABETH RATHBONE.
H<>T w®ath®r has brought th® pa
per bag much in evidence In the
kitchen.
No one likes to wash dishes at any
time, but In summer the greasy pot
and kettle presents such an objection
that many a cook would rather go
without eating warm food than to have
to tvash up afterward.
With paper bag crockery there are no
cooking dishes to wash, and this fact
makes the new way of <poking espe
cially popular In hot weather.
Last autumn. Soyer. the late <h®f of
the famous Brooks club in England
announced that he had developed a
new method of cooking. Instead of
using crocks and pans, be put the food
to be cooked in a paper bag. sealed it,
placed the bag in the oven, and in due
time brought forth an exquisitely pre
pared viand.
First be was laughed at. then the
housewife with a taste for experiments
tried the new -fangled paper bag cook
er' with some success.
Now that hot weather has come,
there is another reason for using pa
per bags instead of pans and dishes to
cook with.
An Energy Saver.
Paper bag cookery is
simple, and the cook who only has one
of two people to prepare for finds this
method a great saving In time, mate
rial and energy.
(n cooking with the paper bag there
is no smeli and no w aste. Portion
for one or two people can he put into
the bag and cooked without loss by
evaporation.
A great .many people have thought
that any kind of a paper bag would |
do, and have tried cooking in paper!
bags which once contained sugar or
coffee. But the results were quit*- ills- I
astrous. The bag burned up or the I
food spilled out, and there was a dis- ■
tinctly papery taste to anything that |
was left.
You must have a bag made of mate
rials that are absolutely pure and |
odorless, and it must be a bag that I
doesn't leak, t'hoose your bag accord
ing to the amount of food to be cooked. :
and don't put a small quantity in a ■
big bag The bag should be placed in i
the oven. Any oven will do. If you |
are using a gas stove, don't place the!
bag mra the gas Jet. It should be at I

POURING IN THE FOOD.

After the food to be cooked is put
into the bag. seal the bag by turning
in the top and fastening with the ordi
nary dips used for typewriting papgr;
etc. A great man.' women us® pins.
Occasionally the «pin is served with the
food: so it’s better to use clips. The.'
ran b® saved . nd used again and again.
If you want to know when the food is
done, open your oven door and prick
' our hag open with a needle, or touch
it to see if it is soft, according to the
food cooked. As a matter of fact, it
is not very easy to overcook the food,
and you at;e muc h more likely to have
things underdone.
If you want to save time and labor
| and dishwashing, by cooking w ith pa
ne bags, begin with something ver'
’.simple; something that can't very well
spoil. Take potatoes, for instance, if •
you use new potatoes, cqt them in half.
Ilf old potatoes are used, quarter them
[after peeling. Put sufficient potatoes
i fo' the number of persons, placing th®
potatoes in th® (caper bag; add a tea
[ spoonful of cold water for each portion,
i add a little salt and some chopped
■parsley. Fasten the bag carefully with
I two or three wire clips; then put it in
; the oven, laying it on the broiler; if
i the oven is hot. it ought to take about
I :<<• minutes to cook the potatoes.

soup. ma. aroni or any of th® large veg-j
etables, like cabbage, cauliflower, arti
chokes, etc. Experiment on simpler
dishes, one of which is Irish stew.
Eor three people cut up two pounds of
mutton Into small squares. Pepper an-I
salt thoroughly; peel several large on
ions, chop them with a few carrots, a
few string beans or some odds and
ends of celery. Add several small po
tatoes. peeled and cut in half, and a
bunch of herbs. Put all this in a bag
with a tumbler of cold wate ; seal th*
bag and lay it on the broiler with th®
team side up. The seam side must
always be uppermost. Cook the stew
for about 40 minutes.
Odds and Ends.
The paper bag is an excellent way ot
cooking up odds and ends and left
overs. Left-over food, especially meat
or fish, when served a second time, is
usually so dry that it is not appetizing.
P.v conking it in the paper hag the
juie® is not allowed to evaporate and
if a little sauce is added to it th® meat
or fish is permeated with a delicious
flavor. When you have any left-over
fish place it in a well buttered bag. add
a little sweet cream, some ehoppail
herbs, seasoning with pepper and salt.
If desired, a little grated cheese can be
mixed with th® cream. This should
only take about ten minutes to cook,
even if th® oven i® sufficiently ho’.
Peas ar® cooked in paper bags by
adding a pint of water to every pint of
peas, a few leaves of lettuce a « 'cry

serving add a little butter and sugar
Cook in a paper bag for 45 minutes.

TOM GETS HIS OLD JOB BACK AND IS SOffRY
By WEX JONES.
THIS business of getting a job for
the summer 1s getting on mj
nerves. Here it's the end of June
and I haven't had wr permanent posi
tion yet. In fact, most of those I haff
were so far from permanent that th*
start collided with the finish.
I thought I had hit upon a good, easy
job yesterday.
Strange to say. I didn't have to ask
for it either; it was thrust at me.
I was passing a building that looked
like some public institution, when a
man rushed out and said to me: "You
look like a man that wants a job."
'‘My face is telling the truth then," I
replied.
“I’ve got a fine job for you." the man
told me. "There's S 3 a day in it. and
only about four hours work.”
"Quick!" said I. Lead me to it."
"You're hired." said the man. "You
can’t start in yet. so ju&t sit around
here till T cal! you."
Nothing could beat that very much,
sitting in the shade with 18 a day
coming in.
I hadn't been there very long when a
man with his arm all bandaged came
along the road. ,
"Hello!” he said. “Doing anything?"
“Yes; got a job inside." I replied.
"It’s a snap. toe. Three dollars a day
and only four hours work."
"Ah," said he meditatively, patting
his injured arm. "Yes; it's a snap, as
you say."
Then he passed along on his way.
Presently along came a man with
one of his legs al) bouad up. He walked
with the aid of a crutch.
"Seen anything of a fellow with his
arm in a sling"" asked the new ar
rive I.
"Yes." said 1; “he went down that
way." indicating the direction he had
taken.
The man with the bandaged I-s
looked at me meditatively.
"Looking for a snap, are you?" he in
quired.

"What'S the beef for?" I asked d!-n,
“Oh. that's for the alligator." an

A curious feeling came over me at
that word. I couldn't tell why but
the world seemed less bright than it
had been a moment before.
However. I went around and fed a?
the fishes. Then I went to thr big
concrete pool where the alligator was.
it looked as big as a tree trunk and
about as intelligent. I threw the beef
in beside it. but the animal, or reptile,
