SOME DAINTY OMELETS
DELICIOUS VARIATIONS THAT
ARE WORTH TRYING.
Hougtwlvea Who Are Perplexed to
Add Variety to Table at Thia Sea
son Will Find Relief In Theae
Suggestions.
Many delicious variations can be
made with the plain omelet as a point
of departure. Sardines broken up and
mixed with lemon Juice and melted
butter, anchovy paste, a teaspoonful
mixed smooth with two tablespoonfuls
of melted butter; grated cheese of
any kind, a cupful of cooked oysters
finely minced, chopped parsley, as
well as any bits of minced meat, ham,
kidney, chicken, liver, sausage, cooked
bacon, all these additions are worth
while.
A delicate change from the plain
kind is the omelet ala creme. For it
make a cream sauce and mix half a
cupful with the six-egg omelet be
fore cooking. Spread the same amount
of cream sauce on half of the omelet
before folding It This sauce should
be moderately thick, made with a cup
; fui of milk and two tablespoonfuls
each of butter and flour.
Blazing omelet is a plain omelet
over which a little rum or brandy is
poured. The alcohol is lighted as
the omelet is sent to the table and
as soon as it has burned off the ome
let should be eaten.
A well-made and well seasoned
Spanish omelet is a lunch in itself.
Melt a tablespoonful of butter in a
saucepan, add an onion chopped fine,
six mushrooms and one red and one
green sweet pepper cut in small
pieces. Cover and cook slowly for
twenty minutes. Make a plain omelet
from six eggs, turn it on a hot platter,
pour the Spanish sauce around it and
send at once to the table. Spanish
omelet is sometimes made by Ameri
can cooks from stiffly beaten eggs, the
yolks hardly mixed with the whites
even after they are cooked.
Quaker omelet is a good one for a
beginner, for it is hardly an omelet
«,t all To make it beat four eggs un
til they are well mixed. Soak half a
pint, a cupful, of bread crumbs in half
a pint of milk until the crumbs are
soft and then add the eggs and beat
with an eggbeater until the bread is
blended with tho milk. Season with
salt and pepper and pour Into greased
pl* plates. Bake in a quick oven and
serve from the dish In which it was
roolred
A delicious and nourishing omelet is
made in Denmark, where the nutritive
value of dairy products is realized and
where, too, eggs never reach the price
of train fares. A Danish omelet has a
cream sauce of three tablespoonfuls of
butter, three of flour and two cups of
milk. In the meantime break maca
roni into one inch lengths and boll it
in salted water until it is tender; then
drain it When the cream sauce i«
cool add six egg yolks, two at a time,
beating the mixture five minutes after
each yolk addition. Beat six egg
whites stiff, fold them into the yolk
mixture, sprinkle with pepper and salt
and pour the omelet over the macaro
ni, which has been arranged on the
bottom of a buttered baking dish. Bake
the omelet in a steady hot oven for
30 minutes and serve at once. Beaten
butter Is used in Denmark with this
omelet, which Is simply butter
creamed with a fork or spoon and
blended with a taste of sugar.
Stocking Holes.
Very often holes are worn in stock
ings by the points of tacks or even
of clinched tacks in the heels of shoes,
uncovered by worn lining, also the
linings on the sides may be rough and
worn. Cut a piece of close-textured
goods the right shape and paste over
the roughness. A very good and cheap
paste is made by mixing a little flour
and water on a pie tin and cooking
just till the flour color disappears,
stirring all the time.
Queen Muffins.
Cream one-half cup butter with one
cup sugar; add two eggs well beaten;
sift three cups flour with three tea
spoons baking powder and add to the
other mixture alternately with one
scant cup milk. Bake in buttered pans
25 minutes.
Hominy Waffles.
To a pint of cold boiled hominy add
one quart of sour milk, two beaten
eggs, two tablespoons of melted but
ter, sufficient flour to make a thin bat
ter, and one teaspoon soda.
Chicken Turnovers.
Make a rich baking powder biscuit
dough; roll out one-fourth inch thick;
cut into squares; place a spoonful of
minced chicken seasoned with herbs
and onion, and moisten with cold
gravy; fold dough over; brush with
milk and bake about fifteen, minutes.
Serve with left-over gravy, to which
add the chopped giblets.

SWALLOW HAD LONG JOURNEY
Positive Proof That Bird Traveled the
Distance From England to
South Africa.
The capture of a swallow’ bearing
an aluminum ring in Natal, South
Africa, the other day, has resulted in
an astonishing insight into the migra
tory habits of birds. From a number
and address stamped on the ring it
was discovered that the swallow was
one of 11,483 British birds marked in
a similar way last summer by enthu
siasts, desiring to learn more as to the
routes taken by bird migrants, and
whether birds return again to their
previous nesting sites. This systema
tic marking of birds began in 1909,
since when nearly 32,000 have been
‘'ringed." About three per cent, are
afterward noted, but the swallow re
ported from Natal appears to have
made the longest flight so far. A
black-headed gull ringed as a nestling
in Yorkshire in July, 1911, was found
In February, 1912, In Flores, Azores.
A starling ringed in Berkshire in Jan
uary, 1912, reached Helsingfor, Fin
land, in April. A teal ringed in Staf
fordshire in the autumn of 1910, was
found at Dalarne, Sweden, July, 1911.
CRUST COVERED BABY’S HEAD
532 Brunswick St., Baltimore, Md. —
“My baby’s face broke out in pimples,
which after bathing would weep and
form scabs until his head and face
were completely covered with a crust
and bls hair all fell out. It was cross
and wc -ld not sleep. Each day it
spread until his entire facj and head
were covered with weeping sores. I
tried several prescriptions, but did not
find any relief. Then I decided to try
Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
"After using them two or three
times the sores dried up and after a
half dozen applications all disfigure
ment disappeared. In less than three
weeks the sores and scales were com
pletely gone, and baby's skin as
smooth and clear as when he was first
bom. Cuticura Soap and Ointment
cured him.” (Signed) Mrs. Dottie V.

“Elsie, if you open your mouth an
other time, you'll have to go back up
stairs. Now, remember!”
Elsie was accustomed to obey, so,
for a long time, Elsie's lips were kept
tightly closed. At last, however, she

Efficacious Spanking.
Little Martha was cantankerous and
just would not go to sleep, notwith
standing frequent orders from father
and mother, who were anxious to get
to sleep themselves. Finally, after
many threats, the mother arose, and
went through the motions of giving
Martha a spanking. There was hearty
squalling for a few minutes, then
quiet. The father and mother, re
lieved, were dozing off again, when a
little voice piped up:
"Mamma."
No answer.

Woman Is As Old As
She Looks
No woman wants to look old. Many in their
effort to look youthful resort to the “beauty doctor’s”
prescriptions. Their mistake is that they visit the
wrong department in the drug store.
Beauty depends upon health.
Worry, sleepless nights, headaches, pains, dis
orders, irregularities and weaknesses of a distinctly
feminine character in a short time bring the dull eye,
the “crow’s feet,” the haggard look, drooping shoulders,
and the faltering step.
To retain the appearance of youth you must
retain health. Instead of lotions, powders and paints,
ask your druggist for
Dr. Pierce’s
This famous medicine strikes at the very root
of these enemies of your youthful appearance. It
makes you not only look young, but feel young.
Your druggist can supply you In liquid or
tablet form; or send SO one-cent stamps to Dr.
Pierce’s Invalids Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N.Y. and a trial box will be mailed you.
