WORD FOR THE ONION VEGETABLE SHOULD HOLD HIGH PLACE IN THE HOUSEHOLD. Without Doubt, It Is the Best of All Flavoring Agents — Should Be Soaked in Cold Water Before Being Served Raw. Onions, cabbages, turnips, carrots— what housekeeper does not tire of the endless monotony of the displays of these vegetables in the winter shops? Of course, nowadays almost all of us can afford hothouse vegetables in the winter. So cheap they are that they are no longer a treat. Neverthless, these old winter stand-bys are still stand-bys for' us, and the more we know about cooking them temptingly the better. Onions have more possibilities, per haps. than any of the others, for onions are one of the best flavoring agents. And the number of times a week onions can be successfully used depends almost wholly on the ingenu ity of the cook. For flavoring salads, either rub the dish in which the salad is mixed with half an onion or else place a tiny piece of onion under a little piece of bread. In this way the flavor of the onion per meates the whole dish and yet the salad does not come into direct con tact with it. Onion juice or grated onion can be used in flavoring soups and stews when a strong flavor of onion is not desired. And if only a slight flavor is liked, parboil the onion before adding it to the stew or soup. When raw onions are served soak them beforehand for an hour in cold water. This moderates their flavor and really improves them immensely. The sharp taste is looking and only the best of the onion flavor remains. Many persons who do not like raw onions do like them cooked, and al most nobody finds rooked onions in digestible-raw ones cannot always be digested. Moreover, cooked onions contain desirable food properties and are an important item in the winter diet. One delicious cooked onion dish is prepared from onions boiled tender and put in a buttered baking dish, with grated cheese over, under and between them A little milk is added and the dish Is baked until the cheese is melted. Another good onion dish is made from boiled onions, placed in a but tered baking dish, covered with cream sauce and sprinkled with grated cheese and bread crumbs. This should be browned in the oven. Plain boiled onions served with melted butter and pepper and salt are good. They should be cooked tender and served very hot. Onion soup, too, is good unless one really dislikes the onion flavor. On ions are boiled to pieces in water and this water, strained, is then mixed with hot milk, seasoned and lightly thickened. It is served very hot with croutons.—Frances Marshall, in Chi cago Daily News. Buttermilk Doughnuts. One cupful of buttermilk, one cupful of brown sugar, two tablespoonfuls of ; butter, one egg, one-half teaspoonful of baking soda, one teaspoonful of j cream of tartar, flour, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt. Cream the butter and sugar together, then add the egg well beaten, the buttermilk, soda, cream of tartar and enough sifted flour to make a stiff dough. Roll out about a quarter of an inch thick, cut with a doughnut cutter and fry in plenty of smoking-hot fat. Drain and dust with sifted sugar. Delicate Corn Starch. Heat one pint water, add two table spoonfuls corn starch, three table spoonfuls sugar, pinch of salt, mixed together. Then add well-beaten whites of two eggs and cook until thick. Custard Sauce for Above.—One pint hot milk, one teaspoonful corn starch, three tablespoonfuls sugar, mixed to gether. Add to hot milk. Then add yolks of two eggs, cook until thick and flavor with vanilla. Bake Ham or Sausage. Who has ever fried ham or sausage without becoming annoyed at the spat tering of grease and smoke which filled the room? All this can be avoided by preparing the ham or sausage for fry ing, and placing in a moderately hot oven, bake for half an hour or until as delicately browned as desired. It will be deliciously tender, and no one can tell what meat is to be served un til i'. is placed upon the table. Hominy Cakes. Materials—One cupful cold cooked hominy, one egg, one tablespoonful melted butter. Utensils—Bowl, measuring cup, beat er, tablespoon, griddle. Directions—Break up hominy with fork, add beaten egg and melted but ter. Fry like griddle cakes. Serve with sirup or bacon gravy. Ham Toast. Mince a little left over boiled ham very finely. Warm it in a pan with a piece of butter. Add a little pepper and paprika. When very hot pile on hot buttered toast. Any left over scraps of fish or meat may be used up in a similar way, and make an excel lent savory to serve w'ith a green salad. Lamb Stew. Boil slowly three pounds of lean lamb flank one hour, then add three or four sliced onions and one-half cup ful rice and boil with a heaping tea spoonful of sage and summer savory for three-quarters of an hour. Then add a pint of cream of tartar dum plings mixed with three eggs. Boil 12 minutes. Raised Rolls. Warm one cupful milk, one-fourth cupful each butter and sugar, a little salt, one-half yeast cake dissolved in one-half cupful warm water; add flour to make stiff batter and the beaten white of one egg; let rise over night. In the morning make into rolls and bake when light WHAT IS URIC ACID? THE CAUSE OF BACKACHE, RHEUMATISM, LUMBAGO Ever since the discovery of uric acid in the blood by Scheele, in 1775. and the bad effect it had upon the body, scientists and physicians have striven to rid the tissues and the blood of this poison. Because of its over abundance in the system it causes backache, pains here and there, rheu matism, gout, gravel, neuralgia and sciatica. It was Dr. Pierce who dis covered a new agent, called '‘Atiuric,” which will throw out and completely eradicate this uric acid from the sys tem. "Anuric” is 37 times more po tent than lithia, and consequently you need no longer fear muscular or ar ticular rheumatism or gout, or many Many a married man would starve to death if his wife didn't know how to manipulate a can opener.

Telling Things. “You can tell more about a woman by looking at the man with her than by looking at her," remarked the Wise Individual. "And you’d better tell less about her.” countered the Silly Individual.— Judge. His Stand. "Brudder Clapper," severely said good old Parson Bagster. "why don’t yo’ come to pra'r meet in' and lift up yo’ voice in suppercation to de Lawd?” "It's dis-uh-way wid me, pabson,” replied the brother, who possessed a predilection for being on the off side; “I goes into muh closet at home and prays dar in secret. I don’t take no stock in dis thing o' 'dressin' open let ters to de Lawd." Large Club for Boys. The boy in the city must avoid many side tracks if he desires to lead an upright and useful life, says the Bos ton Globe. Constantly he is beset with distractions which may lead him astray into the ranks of the incompe tent, idle or even vicious. He is an inquisitive, knowledge-thirsting crea ture, full of the great possibilities of youth. His latent powers are preci ous; yet they are wasted with a prodi gality akin almost to that of nature. Hence the establishment of the large boys' club in Roxbury, handsomely housed and well equipped, means that many boys will be given the opportun ity to keep on the main line leading to a useful life. A boy’s enthusiasm is more often aroused when he thinks he is playing than when he is working at school. The boys' club can catch birr. when he is enthusiastic and start that en thusiasm toward manly accomplish ment. We wish the club every suc cess. other diseases which are dependent on an accumulation of uric acid within the body. Send to Dr. Pierce of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., for a pamphlet on “Anuric,” or send 10 cents for a trial package of “Anuric" Tablets. If you feel that tired, worn-out feel ing, backache, neuralgia, or if your sleep is disturbed by too frequent urination, go to your best store and ask for Dr. Pierce’s “Anuric.” Dr. Pierce’s reputation is back of this medicine and you know that his “Pleasant Pellets" for the liver and his “Favorite Prescription" for the ills of women have had a splendid reputation for the past fifty years.

Criticism Implied. “He doesn't like my cooking,” sob bed the three months' bride, a tear on her long lashes. “I just know he doesn't. So, there!” “What makes you think so?” her mother asked. '‘Has he said he doesn't like your cooking?” "N-no-o,” stammered the bride. "Nonsense, child, it's just your im agination. I felt there war no basis—” "There is a basis,” the bride insist ed tearfully.

Skimpy little Mr. Meek’s stalwart helpmeet grabbed him with both hands by the hair of the head to illustrate some point which she wished to im press upon him. "My dear, my dear,” he chided. "I am afraid you have forgotten that ! am attached to the other ends of those hairs.” Different Attitude. “Isn't .lohn Henry crazy over his new automobile?" “He seems to be mostly crazy un der it.” And some women wouldn't enjoy living in a heavenly mansion unless they could clean house at least once a month. i However, the man at the bottom of the ladder hasn't far to fall. CONFIDENT HE WAS THERE Woman Wished She Was Able to Send Post Cards to Her Husband in Heaven. "I wish I could send post cards to heaven.” When you hear a remark like that you naturally turn around and take notice. So the persons who overheard turned around and— She was looking over “Views of Washington," strung in liue all around the stove, and there was nothing in her face or voice to give notice of a lacking brain behind the really beau tiful, black-toqued head. The woman with her just smiled. "The city has grown so since John died that every time it reaches out to take in another suburb I want him to know it. He always believed in Wash ington—” And she was right. It would be per fectly splendid if all of us could send post cards to our folks in heaven. And what would it be if they could send post cards to us!-^Washington Star. Making It Clear. Editor—I'm afraid your story would not appeal to our readers.
