SALLY PARNESS, BUTCHER
wml Mi
When Now York city recently
opened its great cosmopolitan market
thero was an innovation that was
pleasing to tho woman shoppers espe
cially. This was tho placing of Sally
Parness, n skilled butcher, In ono of
tho big meat booths to soo that tho
housewives got just what thoy
wanted.
Faith in the Seed Catalogue.
I never lose my fnlth In tho annual
seed catalogue In splto of divers and
sundry disappointments. With new
zest every year I read of those won
derful strawberries, ono of which
would fill a tumbler, nnd tho over-bearing
raspberries that aro In fruit from
Juno to December, and of tho mam
moth squashes which only a Hercules
can lift. And I am very sure to try
somo of them and get any amount of
fun out of my anticipations of similar
results.
No matter if tho realization falls far
short of tho plcturo in tho gorgeous
cataloguo; I lay tho results to my poor
er soil, or lack of skill in cultivation,
and have just as much confidence In
tho novelties which next spring's cata
loguo oxplolts as tho "very largest
richest, juciest, most molting (always
a favorito word) fruit in tho world."
I would not loso my faith in tho seed
and fruit catalogues for all tho
squashes and rnsphorrlcs that grow.

VINCENT ASTOR GETS A HYDROPLANE
BEST MEAL OF THE WEEK
On Sunday Evening Everybody Get
What He or 8he Wishes, and
Enough to Satisfy.
Sunday ovonlng supper Is tho bost
meal of tho whole- wcok, It it Ib Just
tho ordinary kltchon Sunday evening
supper and not tho fancy sandwich,
chafing dish, hot chocolate, musical,
literary, high-brow kind. Thoro may
havo boon chicken for dinner or a
roast and gravy and mlnco pio, and
nobody is very hungry. At least every
body thinks ho Is not hungry until ho
gets Into tho kltchon.
"Just put tho things on tho tablo
nnd everybody help thcmsolveB,"
mother says. It is not grammatical,
but It Is tho way sho says it, and tho
best way to say It. And everybody
docs help "thcmsolveB," father nnd
mother and tho two or three or seven
or eight children, all round tho tablo
nnd tho sink and tho Ironing board,
sitting on tho radiator and tho flroless
cookor.
Mnybo father decides that ho will
mako pancakes, and nothing Is moro
fun than watching father cook. May
bo mother consents to stir up somo
mush. Mush Isn't so much to eat, but
It Is nlco to watch her mako It. May
be you Just pick tho meat off tho
chicken bones, and everybody gets
his fingers or his spoon in tho pot of
dumplings and gravy.
At any rate everybody gets exactly
tho thing that tastes best to him and
Sunday ovonlng supper In the kitch
en la tho only tlmo and place whoro
you can got that. If you llko mus
tard, you havo mustard; It you llko
chill sauco, you havo chill sauco; It
you llko Btrawberry preserves, you
havo Btrawberry preserves. It has
been years and years slnco thero was
over moro than ono kind of "spread"
or "relish" on tho dinner tablo.
Tho only troublo is that tho family
cats much moro than it over cats In
tho dining room, nnd thero is never
anything loft over for Monday. Somo
housokoopers would not permit a
Sunday ovonlng supper in tho kitchen
for 'anything. Thoy put tho chicken
or roast away for Monday, and servo
bread and milk or tenkottlo tea at vho
dining tablo. That kind of Sunday
ovonlng supper Is no good at all, and
must not bo confusod with the help
yoursolvcs, cvorybody-in-tho-pot sort.

ARGENTINE MAGNATE AND FAMILY HERE
Colonial Closets.
In a quaint old colonial cottago aro
many closets, fow If any of them lo
cated according to modern notions of
couvonlenco. Tho clothes closet that
ought to bo In tho sparo room up
stairs Is downstairs In the library
with tho spare-room bureau; tho up
stairs closets aro under tho eaves of
tho sloping roof tho way to utllizo
them to tho b03t advantage Is to enter
on your hands and knees, carrying an
electric torch botween your teoth. In
sido tho closot you turn on your back,
Illuminate tho pendnnt garments with
your torch, drag whatever you select
down from tho hook, grasp it firmly
with your teeth, nnd so out again on
your hands and knees, rolling tho elec
tric torch gently beforo you. Wo soo
now why In thoso good old days chosts
of drawers wcro popular fortunately
wo havo ono of our own that somehow
has got up tho stairway; and wo soo
also, as wo begin to scttlo Into it,
what Is perhaps tho secret of this
humbler colonlnj architecture. Tho
Colonial Jack who built this houso
wanted somo rooms round a chimney
and a roof that the snow would slldo
off; nnd so ho built it; and whorover
ho found n spaco. ho made n closet or
a cupboard; and becauso lie had no
other kind, ho put in small-paned win
dows; nnd all ho did wns substantial
and honest and beautiful, In Its
humblo way, by accident.

Misplaced Pity.

"My duties afford mo shocking revo

Tho fnlr policewoman smiled grim
ly and added:
"How many, many a Iioston wifo

and thinks, with tears In hor eyes, of
tho overtime tho poor boy puts In
nearly every ovonlng at his dreary

Steam-Dried Hay.
Tho up-to-date well-equipped farm
seems now to havo a method of pro
tection during tho hay season, against
tho losses which havo been experi
enced In so many cases by thu wet
ting of tho rain and tho preventing
of proper drying. Experiments show
thivt grass can bo dried by steam
within thirty minutes from tho tlmo
it Is cut, and then bo ready to bo
stored away. Tho product thus ob
tained Ib superior to tho ordinary suu
drhid product, having a sweetar
flavor and kcoplnjK fully as well. This
can bo nppllod, of course, only on a
farm that has a htoam plant, but It Is
fairly simple, ar..l It certainly seems
to promise to tho farmer a protec
tion against ono of his Inevitable
trials in the past.
