VEGETABLE SALAD.
Avery good salad can be made by
using a cupful of uncooked cabbage,
green pepper, celery, all to be
shredded; apples cut in pieces, a few
seeded white grapes cut in halves and
a few English walnuts. Mix all to
gether thoroughly and place in the
refrigerator. Serve with mayonnaise
or French dressing.—Fruit Grower.
PANCAKES WITHOUT EGGS.
Make a batter of a quart of sour
milk into which a teaspoonful of soda
and as much flour as will be required
to make the mixture of medium thick
ness. Beat until very light, then add
a tablespoonful each of lard and but
ter melted, a dessert spoonful of
brown sugar and a little grated nut
meg if the flavor is liked. Have the
frying pan or skillet hot, put in it a
teaspoonful of butif|\ and as soon as
this melts, but before it has time to
discolor, pour in the pancake. When
the under side is brown turn by
means of a cake turner, giving a half
toss tip to the skillet. Put the cake
on a hot platter, butter and spread
with powdered sugar, jelly or jam
and repeat until there are five in pile,
when cut through all at one time as
for pie.—The Housewife.
SWEET POTATO PANCAKES.
Sweet potato pancakes have a de*
lightful flavor when fried a rich brown
in butter. These are too delicate to
be fried in other forms of fat. Mash
three cups of boiled sweet potatoes
until they are smooth. Press them
through a sieve to free from lumps
and add six large tablespoonfuls of
flour sifted carefully. Then mix
three-quarters of a cupful of sugar
with the yollcs of three eggs. When
they are beaten to a smooth paste
stir them into the dry ingredients,
mixing in a little milk also to make a
moderately thin batter. Fold through
it the whites of the three eggs beaten
into a very stiff froth. The whites
should thin the batter enough for
pancakes, hut if more moisture is
needed add a little milk. The pan
should be hot, a broad pancake turn
er used, and the cakes fried with
care.—New York Tribune.
KOELE PALAN.
The Hawaiians make a unique
sweet potato dish and call it koele
palan. Mash some fresh boiled sweet
potatoes, reheat them in a cocoanut
cream which is given below, and
serve hot.
For the cream grate a cocoanut,
heat it slowly in half a pint of milk.
When the boiling point is reached
strain it through a bag. Squeeze the
bag thoroughly to extract as much of
the flavor and juice as possible, and
it will be ready for use. The “cream,”
if preferred, need not he strained, but
simply poured over the mashed po
tota and mixed through it. Add a
large spoonful of butter and let the
mixture become very hot and then
serve. If the mixture is formed into
cakes and fried brown in butter it
will make a novel and delicious dish
at luncheon or whenever croquets are
appropriate. Use the ingredients in
proportions to suit the taste. The
cocoanut cream just mentioned is also
used by Hawaiians with bananas in a
pudding and in various other dishes.

To remove whitewash from paint,
rub with a flannel saturated with
lard or any fresh oil.
A piece of soap rubbed over a
brown paper attached to the ironing
board will often clean the iron from
all starch.
An economy in gas is, when pota
toes are almost baked turn the gas
off, and (he heat from the oven will
finish baking them.
To clean the corners of window
casing, a bradawl with a damp cloth
wound around the point will assist
greatly in cleaning.
When carpets are not to be taken
up while house cleaning, a thin case
knife will clean out the crevices be
tween the wall and the carpet.
An excellent furniture polish is
made from mixing equal parts of al
cohol and sweet oil. This gives a
glossy polish to even the finest wood.
Instead of basting the pleats of
skirts, when packing them in a trunk,
try fastening each pleat at the bottom
of the skirt, with payer clips and fold

To remove old tda and coffee stains
wet spots with cold water, cover with
glycerine and let stand two or three
hours. Then wash with cold water
and hard soap. Repeat if necessary.
DIFFICULTIES OF JAPANESE.
The Bpoken and Written Language-
Essential Pacts of the Alphabet.
Army Officers -who are thinking of
talcing up the trtudy of Japanese
should pause before they attempt the
task and ask themselves whether
they have a peculiar strong linguis
tic aptitude. Even the Japanese find
the language very difficult. Anglo-
Saxons who growl about the difficul
ties of our spelling and favor the
simplified system would never live if
they had to undergo what the sub
ject of the Mikado suffers in the mat
ter of language.
3t takes a Japanese child seven
years to learn the essential parts of
the alphabet. There are 214 signs,
which serve the same purpose as in
itial letters in English dictionaries.
Then after you have tracked down in
one of these 214 signs some part of
the character for which you are
about to make a search you still
have a veritable Darkest Africa
ahead of you. The pompous first
personal pronoun is avoided when
ever it is possible in speaking Japa
nese. If it must be used it is intro
duced casually, but generally the ab
stract noun “selfishness” serves in
its stead.
For example, a Japanese would not
nay, “I don’t drink wine,” -but “Wine
don’t drink;” or, if this is not clear
enough* “Selfishness wine don’t
drink.” Reference to your posses
sions must be deprecatory. Thus, if
a man wishes to point out his own
residence he says, “That miserable
house,” which, of course, could re
fer to do other than his own.
On the other hand, “That beautiful
house” would easily identify the
house as belonging to someone else.
Moreover, any one who wishes to
learn Japanese must be prepared to
learn two languages—the written and
the spoken. The one differs so mate
rially from the other that if a Japa
nese is reading a book or newspa
per and wishes to do so aloud it
becomes necessary for him to trans
late the written words into the col
loquial. To be able to read any of
the higher class Japanese newspa
pers it is necessary to master at
least from 2,500 to 3,000 ideographs.

Big Waste of Gae.
The people of the United States
waste in the course of a year $33,-
000,000 worth of gas. Kjiis statement
is made by the j: of the Na
tional Commercial Ga V Association,
William J. Clark. One, of the ways ’
in which gas is wasted jis by having
wall coverings that.- absorb light.
Colors differ immensely in their
power of reflection. The reflective
power of yellow wall paper, for In
stance, Is 40 per cent., while that of
emerald green is only 18 per cent.
Dark brown paper reflects 13 per
cent, and orange as much as 50 per
cent. It pays to be clean, for a
yellow painted wall that is soiled has
only half the reflecting poiyer of a
clean yellow painted wall.
Wrong types of burners are an
other source of w T aste, and so are
burners that are out of ojgler. Hav
ing the chandelier too high throws
the ga3 where it isn’t needed, and
so wastes it. Some people try to se
cure what they call a cheerful effect
by having bright spots of gilding,
polished bric-a-brac and inconsequent
mirrors to catch the light. This is a
mistake; it simply wearies the eyes.
Light should be thrown where it is
needed, and reflected from broad sur
faces.—New York Tribune.
RESULTS OF FOOD
Health and Natural Conditions Come
From Right Feeding.
Man, physically, should be like a
perfectly regulated machine, each
part working easily in its appropriate
place. A slight derangement causes
undue friction and wear, and fre
quently ruins the entire system.
A well known educator of Boston
found a way to keep the brain and
the body in that harmonious co-oper
ation which makes a joy of living.
“Two years ago,” she writes, “be
ing in a condition of nervous exhaus
tion, I resigned my position as teach
er, which I had held for over forty
years. Since then the entire rest has,
of course, been a benefit, but the use
of Grape-Nuts has removed one great
cause of illness In the past, namely,
constipation, and its attendant evils.
“I generally make my entire break
fast on a raw egg beaten into four
spoonfuls of Grape-Nuts, with a little
hot milk or hot water added. I like
it extremely, my food assimilates, and
my bowels take care of themselves.
I find my brain power and physical
endurance much greater and I know
that the use of the Grape-Nuts has
contributed largely to this result.
“It is with feelings of gratitude
that I write this testimonial, and trust
it may be the means of aiding others
in their search for health.” .
Look in pkgs. for the little book,
“The Road to Wellville.” “There’s a
Reason.”

new one appears from time to time.
