OUT OF THE COOKY JAR.
Character Is built out of circum
stances. From exactly tho same ma
terials ono man builds palaces, While
another builds hovels. G. H. Isevres.
Oatmeal In various forms Is good for
children, and when mado Into slmplo
cakes without spice is
wholesome and nutri
tlous. A point to bo re-
membered when using
oatmeal: If It Is to bo
well digested it must bo
well cooked, and tho timo
it takes to bako small
cakes containing oatmeal
is not sufficient to cook the meal so
that it will bo digested. Treat the oat
meal to a good, strong heat in the
oven, stirring It as ono did coffee In
tho old days, when It was browned nt
home. After this good baking it will
be slightly brown. Then put It through
tho flno cuttor of tho moat grinder,
and it is ready to uso in cakes, and it
will not bo too much cooked if used
In oatmeal bread.
Scotch Cookies. Tako 2 cupfuls
of oatmeal, prepared as for tho drop
cookies, two cupfuls of flour, adding
another half cupful to uso for rolling
out tho cookies, ono cupful of sugar,
two eggs well beaten, threo tablespoon
fuls of milk, three-quarters of a tea
spoonful of soda, one-half cupful of
butter, ono-thlrd of a cupful of hoof
drippings, ono teaspoonful of salt, ono
tablospoonful of spices, cinnamon, nut
meg, and clovo mixed. Mix as usual,
and set asldo on ice, or, ovon better,
lot stand over night beforo rolling out.
A Bharp cuttor Is needed for cutting.
Oatmeal Drops. Tako a cupful of
Gutter and other shortening, mixed and
softoned; add a cupful of sugar, two
oggs, two cupfuls each of flour and
rolled oats, flvo tablespoonfuls of milk,
a teaspoonful of cinnamon, ono-halt
teaspoonful each of salt and soda,
mixed with tho flour; ono cupful each
of rnlslns and walnuts, finely choppod.
Thoso may, by mixing, bo put through
tho choppor easily. Drop the dough by
half teaspoonfuls, two Inches apart, on
baking sheets, aud bako In a moderato
oven.

WAYS WITH VEGETABLES.
But happy thoy, thrice happy, who
possess
The art to mix these sweets with due
address.
Better In oaten bread today than

Most Amorlcan cooking of vogo-
tablcB is poorly dono, and for that rea
son wo do not secure
sufficient nutriment from
them to satisfy hungot
and kcop tho body in
perfect physical condi
tion. Thoso who study
the proper methods of
vogotablo cookery do
not cravo meat, because
their vegetables are delicately llavorod
and dollciouBly seasoned. Tho aver
ago cook cooks tho life all out of tho
vegetablo In tho water and then throws
that away, retaining tho nioro waste
for food.
Mustard Greens. Wash tho mustard
leaves and put them on to cook with
no water, adding as little as possible
to keep from scorching. If tho greens
aro cut in Bhrcds beforo being put on
to cook thoy will cook quicker. Sprin-
klo with salt, peppor and cornmeal, us
ing a tablespoonful of tho latter; let
cook until tender and tho meal Is thor
oughly dono.
Eggplant With Tomatoes. Peel and
cut eggplant Into Inch cubes. Molt a
tablospoonful of butter in a saucepan
and put in the eggplant, ono cupful of
tomatoes and ono Binall onion, chopped
very fine. Season with salt and pop
per, cayenne and ground cloves, nut
meg, ginger, mustard and cinnamon.
Cook until tho eggplant Is thoroughly
soft.
Vegetable Salad. Mix equal parts
of Bhreddod cabbage and celery, a
good sized applo and a tablospoonfuP
of onion, all cut fine, with a good
salad dressing. Servo woll chilled on

Cabbage and Onions. Slwed a cab
bage and put into a kettlo with a ta
blospoonful of oil or butter, add a
chopped onion, cayonno popper aud
salt and cover closely to cook In lta.

In butter beforo adding, which makes
a dlffcrenco In tho flavor of the dish.
Sauted Radishes. Uso tho largo,

Fow pcoplo realize how much Chris
tian work can bo accompllBbod by lot-
tor writing. In
somo cases a lot
tor la hotter ovon
than words, for it
can bo road and
roroad, and pon

Clay Trumbull
says that ho was
led to Christ by a
porsonal appoal
from a frlond in
a lottor. Whal
preaching and the
ordinary formB ol
church work had
not accomplished
by a fow sontoncoo In a noto. Aa he
rofloctod upon this ho bogan to roallze
tho lmportanco of individual work Cor
individuals, nnd nil his lifo long ho on
gngod in this form of offort.
A prominent buslnosa man In Wor
costor, Mass,, wont to his pastor and
said that ho would llko to unlto with
tho church, Whon naked how long ha
had boon n Christian ho replied that
ho had taken tho stop only n fow days
ago, nnd that ho had boon led to da
this ut tho request of a lady who had
written him on tho aubjoct. Ho said
that Bormous had not mado much im
pression on him, but that tilts' lottoi
from n purson whom ho hardly know
nppoalcd to him so strougly that be
could not roslst It.
A little mission Sunday school in
Connoctlput orgnulzod a homo depart
mont. Ono of tho workers wroto to a
friend who was living in tho forests ot
Canada, far from any church, and
asked It eho would not llko to join
their homo department. Tho roply wni
favorablo and tho Htoraturo was sont,
Soon tho frlond In Canada wroto Bay
ing that sho thought sho could got
Bomo ot her neighbors to join tho Con

Htoraturo. In a short tlmo sho sue-
ceodod in gottlng 2G moro mombora, all
of whom bocamo idontlflod with the
llttlo mission school In Connecticut
threo or four hundred miles awny.
Thoy wero so pleased with tholi
work that aftor awhllo thoy organlzod
a Sunday school of tholr own. Soon
thoy outgrow tholr accommodatlont
and raised monoy nnd built a chapel,
Thon thoy said, "Wo ought to havo a
Christian Endeavor socloty," and soon
that, too, was organlzod. This wont
on for a timo, but tho moro thoy stud
led tho Biblo tho moro hungry thoy
groW, and by and by thoy organlzod n
church and Bocurod a pastor, Aud all
this camo from ono lottor wrltton by
an ontorprlslng workor in a little
school sovoral hundrod mllos nway.
Why should not Christians nlm to
mako tholr corrospondonco count for
tho Master as woll as tholr conversa
tion? Thero might bo somo letters In
which it would not ho ndvisablo to in-
troduco tho subject of roltglon, but on
tho othor hand if tho subjoct woro up.
pormost In ono's mind, opportunities
would frequently bo found to Bay a
word for Christ, or drop a hint, or in-
closo a leaflet. I know a business man
who was writing a lottor ono day whon
ho Baw n tract on his tnblo. Ho In
closed it nnd mailed tho lottor with
out much thought. Thon tho dovil
whispered to him, "You have mado a
fool ot yoursolf. What do you sup
pose that man will think of you for
putting a tract In a buBlnoss lottdr?'
Bolng a Christian, ho lifted his heart
in prayor to God, saying, "Lord, did J
mako a mistake?"
Back camo tho answer, "What is tc
hlndor you from putting a tract In
ovory lottor you writo?"
"By the graco of God I will," ho re
plied, and for tho romalndor ot his life
ho followed this practice Ho saw bo
much good coming from this kind of
offort that ho Anally wlthdrow from
business and dovotod his llfo to writ
lng lottors and Bonding out Christian
Htoraturo of various kinds.
I know a lady who, to holp a drink
lng man, took him into her family as n
hoarder. Soon ho committed somo
misdemeanor and was sont to prison.
Sho did not forsako htm in his dis
grace, but romemboriug tho Mastor'a
words, "I was sick and in prison nnd
yo visited mo," sho endeavored to holp
him by writing oncouraglng lottors,
Soon other prisoners requested that
oho writo to them, and by degrees this
work increased until flnnlly sho wns
writing botwoen two and threo hun
dred lottors n year to tho Inmates ot
dtfforont prisons.
As Boon oa a prlaonor was lod to ac
cept Christ sho sent him a Biblo and
concordance, and tried to lntorost him
in Biblo study. If thoy showed much
proficiency in this work sho ontored
tholr namo In a Biblo corrospondonco
school which took her proteges nt half
price. Many of hor correspondents
bocamo teachers of tho Bible, and
Bomo ot them had largo classes In
their respoctlvo prisons. Murderers
lnfldola and hardened men ot all kinds
havo been led to Christ by this humblo
woman through hor prayers and lot
tors, Sho Is a farmer's wlfo, has had
