I Qle-OTKayG) Salad Making Is an Art Salad-nuking it really an art and not merely the placing of the green in a diilt with oil and vinegar and seasoning pourril over them. In the first place, all material should be secured frrih, well cleans ed and washed with as lutle han dling as possible. Salad should be made immediately before the meal and kept cool until wanted. If no objection, a garlic flavor is healthy and juiiiruves the iluli. This added by slightly rubbing with gar lie the bowl in which the salad is to be served. The yolk of an egg will give good body and improve all salads. Olive oil and red wine iiiegar are preferred. If yoti run short of oil use melted butter, cream or some gravy of some kind of roait meat.

This is the opening number of our own classical series of sidelights on the culinary art. Every well educated child, and adult who was once a child, is fa miliar with the four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie, but not many know what the original of that pie was. An out-of-town visitor in Omaha who has a penchant for odd 6tories told Gabby the other day the real truth. When Gengis Khan, the great Tartar chieftain was ruling, some bandits carried off his favorite wife. In a fury he sent word that unless she was at once returned he would annihilate the robber band. So they hastened to escort her back with every care. But on the return trip an heir to the throne was borne and the bandits were at their wits end to know how to protect a baby from the dangers of travel. At last they decided to make up a lot of bread dough, and in this soft warm cover ing the baby was carried safely back to his father. Gengis Khan undoubt edly thought it a '.'funny dish to set before a king."
