The book of tho week Is Captain Urcyfus'
"I'lvo Years of My I.tfo." Tho simple, di
rect, unforced way In which Cnptuln
Dreyfus tells tho story of hU tcrrlhio
ordeal would " uurry conviction of his
honesty even though tho world were not
already convinced of It tot) times oyer.
Tho fact that ILc world has 30 thoroughly
made up Its mind In 'uvur of Captatu
Dreyfus Is, perhaps, the oi.t circumstance
that may detract from tho puhli; Interest
In his houk. Tho world docs not nevd lo
ho convinced any more. T.iere Is no need
for Alfred Droyfus to go on wasting himself
to attain u formal vindication of his ionor.
Thero arc, however, u via, number of
people who take n deep Interest In the
Dreyfus case and they will welcome the
present volume as containing much ndul
tlonal Information concerning the man and
his sufferings. Tho volumo Is exceedingly
attractive In nppcarnnco, tho cover design
being very plain, but at tho sumo tlmo
neat and in goal taste. McClure, Phillips

COOKING WITH I.1TT1.K Film.
DlinlnUliliiK Discomfort of House
UrriiliiK DurtiiK Hot Wcnllirr,
Tho most serious problom that confronts
tho weary housekeeper who must, splto of
tho exhausting "hot spell, preparo with
her own hands tho food for the family
table Is not so much what to provide, but
how to dlsponso, so far ns possible, with
all useless and unnecessary cooking, how
to obtain n maximum of comfort with a
minimum of hett in such manner as not to
seriously affect tho needful supply of np
petlzlng and nourishing food.
First discard the large roiysts and ncavy
boiled meats and such foods as require
great ond prolonged heat. H Is not possl
ble to do away with a certs-ln amount of
cooked food for each day, but by careful
selection It Is easy to diminish to a vory
great degree tho discomfort arising from
this necessity. In n large family of meat
eaters ranny consider a roast much cheaper
than a steak. Possibly this Is true, If the
family Is large enough to consume n largo
roast at two meals, for, In hot weather
meats must be quickly disposed of. If you
havo but a small refrigerator or Ice chest
for keeping all your perishable foods.
Meats and fresh fruits ar'o qultq adverse to
each other and should not.!bp kept lu the
same compartment. 1,1

Many of the scrloiis nrfe'tljionA that arlso
during tho heated term arise from neglect
to ronform to or the inability of the house
wlfo to adapt herself an'd family to the
change lu temperature and requirements
Whether the mercury Is soaring up toward
the century mark or takes a sudden and
unlooked for dip toward zero, sho will sac
rlflco time and strength with a courage
worthy of a better cause.
Small meats, or those quickly prepared
are best when you wish to Indulge In meat
In warm weather. Steaks, chops, meat
cakes and iiamburg steaks, rolled flank
steaks cannclons, among tho fresh meat
dishes, eggs, young poultry and fish will
complete a list of all the meats necessary
for hot weather cooking. THcso meats
may, of course, be treated In a variety of
ways; but there need bo no great amount of
tlmo or heat expended In their preparation
And what is also a matter to be taken Into
account, they do not leave n lot of "scraps'
that do require some time and perhaps In
genuity to work over Into attracts o and
tasty dishes.

Always set away cooked things In un
covered dishes. Wire gauze dish covers
will keep out dust and admit of ventila

many purses. A good substitute Is n
hoop or oval of stout wire wth olther
cheesecloth or mosquito net sewed (Irmly
over It. Make the hoops of sizes to fit
all sorts of dishes, or, rather, of sizes to

Cold Meat Dishes Thero arc' many who
much prefer cold mcnts In hot weather.

to prepare, thev iray bo prepared on days
when the tempTaturo does not make oven
a little nro unendurable and thus provide
against another hot spell. Meat dishes
which nro well sensoned and spiced will
keep well lu a cold place even lu the hottest

when they cannot be kept ocr a day It
wero better not to eat mcnt at nil.

because Wesson Cooking Oil Is richer,
hns better cooking qualities, Is more
conveniently handled nnd costs much
less, WV!Bon OH Is more easily di
gested than melted butter and enables
it dyspeptic to eat foods fried in It
with greatest 'after-comfort "
Of Course You Kitim Hint Wesson
OH Is Viintly .Superior to
All)' Anliiinl I'al
for the same reasons that It is supe

Philadelphia January 23th. ISW.
Gentlemen- Both brands of Wesson
Oil have been most thoroughly tested
and both glvo excellent results, The
Wesson Salad Oil Is certainly sweet
nnd blund and makes up easily Into
all sorts of snlad dressings.
Fully believing, as I do, that oil Is
the only fat to use for frlng purposes
I most heartily endorse the Wesson
Cooking OH, which has given most
fnvorable results, Very truly yours.
