WHAT TO DO WITH LEFTOVERS
Hash More Palatable, Though Less
Economical, Than Meat Brought
to the Table Cold.
I suppose that in most households
a dish of hash comes to the table at
least once a week. Hash is very nice,
end many people prefer it to cold
meat. But it is one of the least eco
nomical things going, because half a
pound of meat cuts up into very little
mince, and people take a larger help
ing of done-up things than they would
of cold meat in slices. Therefore, if
you want to be economical, don’t have
bash.
But, if you are going to have it, you
might as well make it properly. Do
It in the following way and it will be
perfectly delicious:
Remove all fat and gristle from
your meat. Chop it by hand, or put
it through a machine. If you use a
meat chopper you must put a crust
of bread through afterwards, in order
to clean out all the little bits of meat
which have stuck to the works. If
you don’t do this you will leave quite
a lot of meat on the knives, and it
■will be all wasted.
Melt one ounce of butter In a pan.
When this is melted, stir Into it one
ounce of flour, and add half a pint of
stock or milk. Cook the mixture for
ten minutes, stirring it very carefully
all the time and making sure that it
does not turn lumpy. When it is
done it will be a very thick sauce.
Take the pan off the fire, stir the
minced meat into it and flavor the
whole with parsley, herbs or tomato
sauce.
Put the pan back on the fire, and
stir the contents till It is quite hot.
Don’t let your mince come to the boil
on any account though, or It will be
spoiled. Take It off, turn It out on a
hot dish, and decorate It with snip
pets of toast. It will be firm enough
"to stand up in a pile. A good cook
makes her dishes nice to taste, pretty
to look at, and easy to serve and en
joy.—Exchange.
CURRY SAUCE WORTH TRYING
Approved Recipe, Not Especially Dif
ficult to Make, Will Be Found
to Give Satisfaction.
Curried meats and vegetables are
delicious. He,re is a recipe for a good
curry sauce that Is not especially dif
ficult to make. It can be served with
left-over chicken, cut in little strips,
and heated in the curry, then put on
a platter with a ring or mold of hot
rice. It can be served with left-over
mutton or lamb, cut In dice or thin
slices. It can be served with several
vegetables. To make It, slice a med
ium-sized onion thin and fry it in two
ounces of butter. When It is brown
add a dessertspoonful of curry pow
der. Let it cook a minute or two and
then add a cupful of beef gravy. Dish
gravy from roast beef or beefsteak is
the best sort, but if this is not at hand
beef stock will do. Add also twelve
■whole cloves, a clove of grallc, a strip
or two of lemon peel, a half teaspoon
ful of salt, two bay leaves and a tea
spoonful or two of tarrangon vinegar.
Cook this gently for half an hour and
then strain It.
Baked Apple Pudding.
To 12 sour apples use one pint of
bread crumbs, four or six tablespoons
of sugar, two ounces of butter and two
eggs. Pare, core and cut the apples
and put them into a stewpan with the
sugar and four or six tablespoonfuls
of water; cook until tender and stir
in the butter and well beaten eggs.
Coat the bottom and sides of a well
buttered pie dish thickly with bread
crumbs, put a few pieces of butter on
top of the apple mixture, which should
fill the pie plate. Bake gently for
about three-quarters of an hour, keep
ing the dish covered with greased pa
per to prevent the surface from be
coming too brown. Uncover and
brown.
Rice and Raisin Pudding.
Soak the raisins (about a handful}
in a little warm water for an hour and
then drain. To one cup of boiled rice,
cold or hot, add the yolk of one egg,
one tablespoonful of sugar, one tea
spoonful of vanilla extract and two
cups of new milk. Mix thoroughly and
bring to the boil, simmer gently until
it thickens. Make a meringe of the
white of the egg whipped with a table
spoonful of sugar, spread upon the
pudding and set in the oven to brown.
This is good warm or cold.
Olive Oil for Shoes.
Patent leather shoes may be kept
in good condition during the cold
weather by rubbing them with a little
olive oil and polishing with a piece
of Canton flannel. This will keep the
leather from cracking and the shoes
will always appear new.
Makes a Good Gravy.
Fry a few slices of breakfast bacon,
mix a large spoonful of flour with the
dripping, add a pint of milk and as
much water. Stir until smooth and
thick. This makes a good gravy.
TIMID LOVER SAW THE POINT
Sweetheart's Hint Surely Was Broad
Enough for Even the Most Back
ward of Sighing Swains.
Horace was a devout but timid
lover. So timid was he that, though
the signs were favorable, he had never
yet summoned up sufficient spirit to
ask his adored one the all-important
question.
One day, however, whilst walking
with her in the the garden, a wave of
unexpected courage swept over him
and he begged for a kiss.
’’You may have just one!” answered
the maiden. “But, remember, a kiss
may mean many things. On the lips
it signifies all or nothing; on the hand
It shows respect, and on the forehead
friendship. Choose which you like!”
Horace, with his eyes on the ground,
thought the matter over carefully,
though nervously. He wae roused at
last from his meditations by a soft
sigh.
Raising his eyes, he beheld his di
vinity with her hat pulled down over
her forehead, her hands deep In the
pockets of her jacket and her rosy
lips puckered as she sighed.
Horace guessed—and guessed right!

Useless Pause.
“To oppose the new woman is like
opposing the tide with a broom. Bet
ter still, it’s like Calhoun Clay.”
The speaker was Dr. Horace C.
Newte of Denver, who has for a long
time been championing the slashed
skirt on the ground that it. makes for
hardlnese and prevents cold.
“Calhoun Clay,” he resumed, “was
getting married. Little and lean, he
stood at the altar beside a tall and ro
bust bride of 180 pounds or more. The
ceremony proceeded regularly until, in
the bride’s reply the words ‘love, hon
or and obey' were pronounced.
"At this juncture Bridegroom Cal
houn Clay held up his right hand. A
pause ensued. In tkfi silence Calhoun
said:
“ ‘Excuse me, pahson, but Ah would
have us wait a moment an' let de full
solemnity o’ de words sink in—espe
cially de last two. Ah’s been married
befo'.”

Past and Future.
“Well, how are you today?" asked
the physician cheerfully to the society
leader.
“Well, doctor,” she replied, “the cold
I caught Tuesday is a little better,
thanks to your prescription. But the
one I caught Thursday Is much worse.
The thing I called to see you for, how
ever, Is the severe cold I caught last
night.”
The doctor sat down and wrote a
long line of helroglyphics.
“Here,” he said, “is something for
the one you, will catch this evening
with that V-neck and those skimpy
skirts. Good afternoon.”
Couldn’t Blame Him.
One very cold day, Tommy, in his
first trousers, was walking out with his
overcoat turned back to its utmost
limit
“Tom,” said his father, “button your
coat. Look at mine.”
“Yes, but everybody knows you wear
trousers,” replied Tom.

SILENCER FOR EVIL TONGUES
“Trace It Back Club" of Albany, N.
Y„ Has a Good Idea to Do
Away With Gossip.
In Albany, N. Y., they have an or
ganization called the Trace It Back
club. It was organized twelve years
ago as the outcome of an Inquiry as
to who had set a certain false story
afloat. A party of men were In a
case when a statement was made that
practically accused a well-known citi
zen of crookedness.
"I’d like to see that story traced
back,” said one of the men at the
table, “for there’s not the slightest
truth in It, In my opinion.”
“Well, let’s organize a club to do
it,” said another.
So the club was formed and a com
mittee appointed to investigate the
statement. The story was run down
within two days.
The club, elated over its success,
adopted by-laws and arranged to meet
regularly. Whenever a man opened
his mouth to accuse somebody the
president merely began: “I appoint
as a committee of investigation—”
and he seldom got further. The Trace
It Backs have had many ups and
downs and the membership has
thinned out considerably, but there
are enough still on hand to practice
and preach their principles.
Open the Windows.
He who sleeps with his windows

There is no reason to be surprised
when tuberculosis comes along and
fastens down the lid. If all mankind
could live out of doors all the time,
and not too closely together, tuber
culosis would die out In one or two
generations. Since this ideal condi
tion cannot be achieved, not even for
the sake of baffling humanity's worst
i enemy, the next best thing is to bring
as much out of doors as possible into
our houses, and especially into our
sleeping rooms.
There is nothing which so quickly
lowers vitality to the point where the
tubercle bacillus can get In its work
as breathing stale, close, lifeless, im
pure air during the hours of sleep.
There is nothing which builds up the
resisting powers of the body more
quickly than an abundant supply of
fresh air, particularly at night. If
sleeping out of doors will cure con
sumption, as it has done many a time,
surely it will go far toward keeping
a healty person from getting con
sumption. It Is not always possible
for city dwellers to take their beds
out of doors, but, at least, they can
open windows and let out of doors
come in.
Peculiar Summons From Pew.
Two traveling men reached a small
place in Alabama late one evening
and found that there was no room to
be had at the hotel. The proprietor
did not want to disappoint them, as
they were regular patrons, so he told
them that he would send some bed
ding over to an old church he had
just bought and make them as com
fortable as possible there. About
midnight the whole town was startled
by the furious ringing of the church
bell. An old colored man was sent
by the proprietor to see what was
the matter. Soon he came shambling
back. Massa Boss!” he exclaimed,
“Massa Boss! Jes’ ca’m you’self.
’Twan’t nothin but de gemmen in
pew 26 ringin’ fo’ a drink!”
What He Wants.
“I don’t want to be very rich.”
“That so?"
“No. I have no desire to have a
great fortune."
“Then what do you want?"
"I’d be perfectly happy if I were
rich enough to give my wife an allow
ance every week Instead of having to
take my pay envelope home intact and
receiving an allowance from my wife.”
No Place for Poets.
“Didn’t Oliver Goldsmith once live
here?” asked the tourist.
"I don’t remember the name,” said
the janitor. "Who was the gent?"
"He was a poet.”
“Then it’s hardly likely that he ever
lived here, sir. We always demand the
rent in advance.”
Mrs. Twlckembury.
“I had no idea," said Mrs. Twlck
embury, “that she’d take lumbago at
what I said to her.”
Unpardonable Offense.
“Why did Binhack leave California?”
“He was forced out because he
wouldn’t brag about the climate."
