Hero la a recipe, easy to pro paro, and most successful In results: Tako a pound of good ground mus tard, a pint of salt and a gallon of vinegar. . Mix tho uiUBtard and salt until frco from lumps, then naa tho vinegar In a large, opon-mouthod jar. Gather tho small cucumbers from day to day, wash carefully and add to tho vinegar, putting a plate with a weight on tho pickles to keep them under tho vinegar. Whpn tho Jar la sufficiently full cover with n cloth and put away to bo used at any time. Tho weight must alwaya be loft on so that nono of tho cucumbers aro exposed to tho air. If a llttlo aweotbnlng is do aired, sugar and spices to tnsto may bo added. Mushroom Catsup. When mush rooms aro plenty In tho cool fall morn ings, gather a basket full, look them over carefully to boo that nono aro wormy, and put them In a large mouthed Jar in layers, with salt bc tweon. Don't bo too generous with tho salt, or you will spoil tho catsup. Lot them stand in a worm placo twenty-four hours covered with a tow jbL The next day mash and strain them through a coarso siovo. To every quart of tbd liquor odd an ounce of pepper corns and cook a half hour, then add one-fourth of an ounco of cloves half nn ounco of ginger root, onadozon whole cloves, throo blades cti mnco and cook fifteen minutes. Tako from tho flro and strain again; reheat, ail small bottles and dip tho corks in wax to seal. Tho housewife who docs not fool that she can afford to bavo theso dollcaclcs when bought from tho grocory, will bo ablo, at lit tle expense to put them up, havo them for herself and a fow bottlos for hor friends. The canned sweet rod pepper is such an addition to so many dishes nnd'ln tho tall whon thoy may bo had from your own gardon a fow cans .will be easily put up. This is a tried roclpo. of Miss Farmers', and ono only has to uso tho right proportions to hnvo success: Wash and cut tho stems from a peck, of red poppers, ro movo tho seeds and cut tho peppers in thin rings, round and round with tho scissors. Plunge, into boiling wator and lot stand two minutes, drain and plunge Into ico wator. Lot stand ten mlnutos, drain and paok Into glass jars. Doll ono quart of vin egar and two cups of sugar, llftcon minutes. Pour over tho poppors to overflow tho Jars, seal and keep in a cool placo.

A busy Ironing dny, Or a day when using the kitchen range for other things is n good time to havo a wholo dlnnor, except perhaps tho dessert and a salad, cooked in ono dish. Buy a piece of beef for Btewlng, a bit of veal, nnd If you havo a broiled chop or two of lamb loft from yesterday's dinner. bo much tho better. Cut tho meat in plccos largo enough for a serving, and brown well In a frying pan, using a llttlo 8uoL Add a cupful of wnter to tho frying pari, aftor removing tho moat Placo tho meat in a stono-cov-ered dish, pour over tho liquid from tho frying pan, and put into a hot oven. After half an hour's cooking add a fow carrots, onions nnd pota toes. Dasto thorn with tho brotr oc casionally, and serve thom from tho casserole. A simple salad to bo sorvod with thiB dinner is lettuco and French dressing. Prepare tho lettuco early, nnd placo on tho Ico, wrapped In a cloth. All wator should bo drained from tho leaves, as tho dressing will not stay on wot leaves. Prepare tho drosslng by beating together a ta blespoonful of vinegar to three of oil, a half teaspponful of salt and a few dashes of paprika or rod pepper; a teaspoonful of Worcestershire sauco or ono of catsup, or both, may bo used. When tho dressing la thick and woli blended pour over tho lettuce. Servo at onco, as the dressing will wilt tho lettuce in a few moments. For dessert on this busy day, a dish pf fruit nnd a cooky or cheo30, crack ers and coftco may bo served. A very dainty dessort easy to pre nara and most delicious Is musk mel ons. Cut tho cdlblo portion Into pubes, add a llttlo lemon juice ana (.ugar and servo with small cakes or crackers. When making paBtry, bake sev eral shells, and when a fruit 11 1 Fl I plo Is . wanted in hurry, crush tho fruit, cover with a meringue and brown In a hot oven. This same plo may bo served with the fruit cov crod with whipped cream Instead of the morlngue. 3h TW HAT is tho uso ot weeping It I tho sun does take a rostt It's bound to ro on shining when Die sood Lord thinks It's best. Florence M. Day, OVEN HINTS. It la always bettor in baking flour mixtures to havo a modernto heat at first, until tho enko or biscuit la fully risem then lncrcaso tho heat so that it will brown over quickly. If too ex tremo hent 1b used at first tho dough Is stiffened boforo it has nn oppor tunity to rise; tho result is a cracked and unsightly surface Ulscults- and pastries nro baked In a very hot oven, as tho cut surfaces allow tho gases to cscapo readily. Pastry, unless baked quickly, will bo soggy. Havo a strong umjor heat for baking pastry. Small evens cool quickly nnd should bo heatod hotter than large onus. Do not cool tho oven by keeping tho door open too much. Tho length of tlmo for roasting or bnklng fish dopends upon tho extent of tho surface exposed to tho beat moro than on tho number of pounds. For example, a thin largo roast, bo cnuso Of its largo siirfaco exposed would tako less tlmo to roast than a roll roast of tho samo numbor ot pounds. A steak nn Inch thick requires six to ten minutes for broiling; nn Inch and a half, eight to fifteon minutes. Lamb should novor bo sorvod rare; mutton may. In baking angel food a vory slow oven Is maintained throughout the first halt ot tho baking, then a llttlo lncrcaso and finish with heat enough to brown tho enko a rich brown. A layor cako needs a hot oven and should bnko in twelvo to twonty min utes. Molasses and fruit enkos should have Blower ovons.

Everything within and about us shows that It never was Intendod that man should bo Idle.

Whon camping It Is best to put ono's traveling dress nnd hat Into theso bags nnd loavo thom there, for they aro. seldom wanted until ono is ready to leave. In making tho bags for camp ing there aro some advantages In us ing crctonno Instead of sllkollno.
