spoon of pepper, one small onion
chopped; mix well and niako Into flat
cakes. Placo on a woven wire broil
er and cook over red coalB, turning
every eight counts until well Beared
over. Then cook more slowly until

Tho man whoso Tungsten light sensi
tiveness causes him to break at tho slight
est Jar Is not (joint; to flood the world
with radiance of his success.
MAPLE SUGAR DAINTIES.
Tho season will soon be upon us
when wo can look for maplo sugar in
nil its tempting forms.
The tender waffle hearts aro set upon
la either crisp or soggy, and anon
Like maple sirup made of corn and cobs
twists but a scant five minutes and Is
gone. Myrtle rtced.
There Is nothing In tho sirup lino
which takes tho placo of tho real ma
ple sirup; but, alas, It Is bo often
adulterated that even tho sugar itself
cannot be trusted. Our pure food
laws are striving valiantly to produce
tho proper label, and now when wo
eat corn cobs and molasses wo at leaBt
ire treated honestly If wo know
enough to read the label.
If 6ne has never visited a sugar
camp whon it is In ope'ration, there is
surely a new sensation coming. There
aro numerous sugar camps all over
tho country, and when ono thinks of
tho "sweot" hospitality of these camp
ers when dally 15 or 20 Interested
night-seers drive In to eat warm sirup,
it Is still a constant wonder that there
Is enough to put upon tho markot.
Maple Filling for Cake. Put Into
a sauco pan a cup of cream and two
cups of broken maplo sugar. Heat
slowly until the sugar is dissolved,
then boll until It hardens In water.
Take at once from tho lire and stir
and spread on tho cake.
Maple Nougat. Uoll two cupfuls of
maplo sugar and a half cup of cream
and a tablespoonful of butter until
waxen when dropped In cold water,
then add a cup of chopped nuts, und
pour, while hot, over plain Ice cream.
This Is the most delicious of sauces
for creams.
A very dainty biscuit may bo mado
by preparing a baking powdor bis
cuit dough, roll out and spread with
butter, maplo sugar and chopped nuts,
noil up and cut like cinnamon rolls.
Hake in hot oven. These may bo
served as dessert with a hot sauce.
Concrete Houses.
Limitations imposed by cost, which
In most cases prohibit tho attainment
of oven ordinary architectural attrac
tiveness, have restricted the uso of
concrete In houses of .uvorngo size.
For flieproof dwellings on a more pre
tentious scale reinforced concroto is
gradually taking a prominent place.
At tho othor extromo, for working
men's houses, It has been found pos
sible to cast groups of small houses,
all alike and very plain, that aro sat
isfactory from the standpoint of uso
If you want a tiling will It, don't mere
ly wish It. The Chinese say "groat souls
have wills, focbl oius have only wIsIikm."
DISHES FOR AFTERNOON RECEP
TIONS. When planning any entertulnmeht
In which tho food Is a chief feoturc,
the appearance as woll as tho tempt
ing flavor Is equally Important.
Layer Sandwiches. Have loaves of
graham or whole wheat and white
bread two days old. Trim off tho
crust and save for the countless dishes
which cull for broad crumbs. Cut a
slice and spread the end of the loaf
with softened butter; cut In wnfer-ltko
slices until all 1b prepared. Havo
toady somo chopped and seasoned
ham and a few finely chopped nuts or
any two kinds of Ailing desln'd, but
bo sure that they harmonize. On a
slice of tho buttered brown bread put
a layer of one filling and a layer of
the other on tho white bread, alter
nating with the white and brown un
til a half dozen slices nro placed to
gether. Press, to make Arm, and cut
In slices like layer cake, to serve.
Roasted Almond Sandwiches. Pre
pare the almonds at homo by blanch
ing that Is, boiling In water two min
utes then drop in cold water and re
move the brown skins. Dry well and
cook until brown in a little olive oil;
salt well and chop line. Mix with
either mayonnaise dressing or
whipped cream, seasoned with pap
rika. Spread on wafer-like slices of
white bread which has been buttered.
Maple sugar grated and mixed with
cream and chopped almonds makes
another delicious filling for sand;
wlches.
Small Charlottes. For these take
three-quarters of a package of gela
tine, ono cup of powdered sugar, two
quarts and a half of thick cream, two
tablespoonfuls of vanilla, one-third of
a cup of orange juice and threo dozen
lady lingers. Split the lady fingers
and cut each piece In lengths to lit
around tho sides of paper cases or
molds. Put a piece In tho bottom of
each mold. Have ready chopped nuts
and candled cherries or fresh straw
berries for garnishing. Soak tho gel
atine in cold water and whip the
cream; add the sugar to the cream,
strain In tho dissolved gelatine and
stir until it begins to thicken, then
add vanilla and orange juice. When
very thick, fill cases.
, llcforo serving, sprinkle with
chopped pistachio nuts and garnish
with cherries or strawberries. Theso
forms will hold their shape when
turned out on the serving plato, and
will serve 25 people.
The man who spends nil of his tluiH
grumbling. Is a s-lf-confessed failure. If
things aro always wrong with you It Is
your fault. Pon't wmitu time and energy
In proclulmltiK tho facts. Put them right.
WAYS OF SERVING COD.
r
Codfish, when It is fresh, is a flsh
not to be despised, and if it were less
common, which It Is In a fair way to
be, It would bo held in as high esteem
as salmon. Tho salt variety takes
the place fairly well of many varie
ties of higher priced flsh. If tho fresh
flsh is obtainable, take a small one
and add with threo quarts of boiling
water, a tablespoonful of salt, a table
spoonful of vinegar, a small carrot
and onion chopped fine, a few sprigs
of parsley and a bay leaf or two. Let
the flsh come to tho boiling point,
then simmer gently so that the water
Just moves, for 30 minutes. Lift out,
tako off tho skin, placo on u hot plat
ter, and surround with tho vegetables
and sauco prepared from tho broth of
the flsh. Garnish with sprigs of pars
ley and quarters of lemon and serve.
Fresh Cod Chowder. Put three
slices of fat salt pork into a kettle
and try out until brown. Havo two
pounds or less of cod cut in square
pieces. Remove tho pork scraps und
put in alternato layers of potatoes,
flsh and onions, using two onions to
halt a dozen sliced potatoes. Season
with salt and pepper, cover with wa
ter and cook until the vegetables are
tender. Add a. quart of fresh milk, a
tablespoonful or two of butter, a half
dozen milk crackers whloh have been
scalded In boiling water, and servo at
once. Such a dish Is hard to beat
for a cold, raw night.
Codfish, Cuban Style. Pick In
pieces a cup of freshened salt cod.
Fry nn onion thin in a tablespoonful
of butter, add tho flsh with boiling
water to cover Then add half a
can of tomatoes; season with a gieen
popper chopped, and simmer gently
for an hour. If there is much juice
In tho tomato less water need be add
ed. Turn ho mixture on squares of
buttered toast and servo very hot.

TALES TOLD OF ULSTERMEN
Bull Worthy of Any One From the
County of Cork "Canny" About
Marriage Fees.
Tho Ulsterman Is not Incapable of
a bull, says the British Weokly. It
was an Ulster marquis who endeared
himself to his tenantry by the momor
ablo bull uttered In his speech at an
agricultural dinner: "I wish my farm
ers would uso Iron plows, becauBo
thoy last forever, and will afterwards
sell as old iron."
It was an Ulsterman who at a
funeral observed tho awkward work
of an unaccustomed hand, and ex
claimed as ho seized a shovel: "1
wasn't seven years courting a sex
ton's daughter without learning to
sod a grave."
No matter how largo tho bride's for
tune, tho Ulsterman generally grum
bled over tho marrlago fee.
"Wouldn't half a crown tlmpt yo?"
asked a bridegroom of tho ofllclatlng
minister whon tho clerk demanded tho
usual fivo shillings.

"Wo can't finish Europe. It will
cost entirely too much."

LIFE'S ROAD
Smoothed by Change of Food.
Worry Is a big load to carry and an
unnecessary one. When accompanied
by Indigestion It certainly is causo for
tho blues.
Cut tho whole trouble may bo easily
thrown off and llfo's road bo mado
oasy and comfortable by proper eating
and tho cultivation of good cheer.
Read what a Troy woman says:
"Two years ago I mado tho acquaint
ance of Grapo-Nut3 and havo used the
food onco a day and sometimes twice,
over since.
"At tho timo I began to uso It life
was a burdon. I was for years afflict
ed with bilious sick headache, caused
by Indigestion, and nothing seemed to
relievo mo.
"Tho trouble became so severo I
had to leavo my work for days at a
time.
"My nervos woro in bucIj a stnto I
could not sloop and tho doctor said I
was on tho vergo of nervous prostra
tion. I saw an adv. concerning Grape

or any other children's ailment, givo a
teaspoonful of "California Syrup of

perfectly harmless, and In a few hours
all this constipation poison, sour bilo
