. Ways of Serving Curried Dishes.
In spite of its high seasoning , pee
pie who have lived in India are en
Hhuslastlc in their praise of curry. Al
though it Is not expensive It may be
made at home.
Curry Powder. Take one ounce
each of turmeric , coriander seed ,
white ginger , nutmeg , mace and
cayenne. Pound all together and sift
through a fine sieve. Bottle and cork
well. To make an Indian curry , a rab-
"bit , chlcker or other delicate meat
is required. For chicken curry , cover
the chicken with boiling water , adding
a bouquet of herbs and two large
onions. Simmer ge'ntly for" an hour
and a quarter , removing the fat as it
rises. Melt two tabletpoonfuls of/ but
ter in a sauce pan , add two tablespoonfuls -
spoonfuls of flour and when well
"blended stir in the chicken broth. Add
a teaspoonful or more of the curry
powder with the flour. Beat the
yolks of three eggs , stir in the
sravy and' the juice of half a lemon.
Pour over the chicken and serve with
a border of rice.
Curry of Mutton. Fry one large
onion , cut fine , in two tablespoonfuls
of butter. Mix one tablespoon of curry
powder , one teaspoonful of salt , one
tablespoonful of flour and stir it into
the butter and onion. Add gradually
one. pint of hot water or stock. Cut
two pounds of lean mutton into small
pieces and brown them in hot fat.
! Add them to the sauce and simmer
ointll tender. Place the meat on a
'hot dish and arrange a border of
Tjolled rice around the meat.
Curried Eggs. Remove the shells
from six hard-cooked eggs , cut in
jhalves. Fry one teaspoonful of
chopped onion in one tablespoonful of
) * gutter , add two tablespoonfuls of flour
and half a tablespoonful of curry pow
der. Pour on slowly one and a half
cupfuls of white stock , milk or cream ;
a.dd salt and pepper to taste. Simmer
1111 the onions are soft , add the eggs
smd when warmed through , serve in
a shallow dish ; or arrange the eggs
on toast and pour the sauce over
them. This may be used on any fish
flaked and served as curried fish.
Curried Vegetables. Cook one cup
ful each of potatoes and carrots , one-
"half cup of turnip cut in fancy shapes.
TJrain ; add a half cup of peas and
: pour over the sauce made by cooking
two taolespoonfuls each of onion and
"butter , remove the onion , add two ta-
"blespoonfuls of flour , salt , pepper and
celery salt and a half teaspoonful of
curry. Add gradually one cup of
scalding milk and sprinkle with pars
ley.

"Recipes From Northern Europe.
Each country has- its characteristic
( cookery , and a study of the dishes
[ made in different sections of our coun
try is most interesting.
Norwegian Cabbage Soup. Take

WHITE AND BROWN NOUGATS
How the Two Varieties Are Made
and'What Ingredients Are
Necessary.
There are two distinct varieties of
nougats , white and brown. For the
white take 10 ounces of sugar , 1 ta
blespoon of glucose , % pound of almonds
mends , blanched , dried and chopped ,
2 ounces of chopped pistachio nuts ,
1 teaspoonful of vanilla extract , 1 gill
of water , whites of 2 eggs. 2 ounces
of honey. Put honey into double
boiler and when melted add stiffly
beaten whites and stir the two togeth
er until It begins to get quite firm.
Boll sugar , water and glucose togeth
er to 260 degrees if you like a soft
nougat , and 268 degrees if you like it
stiffer. Add this to honey and eggs ,
stirring quickly all the time. Add almonds
mends and pistachio nuts and vanilla.
Continue cooking till sugar breaks
with a snap when tried In cold water.
Pour into prepared frame or dish
lined with wafer paper. Cover with
wafer paper , then put a board on top
and heavy weight on that Then turn
out and cut into bars with a sharp
knife. Wrap each bar In wax paper
or tinfoil. For cherry nougat add a
few drops of red coloring and add 1
ounce of chopped cherries. For rose
nougat color a delicate pink with red
coloring and add a few chopped crys
tallized rose leaves.
For brown nougat , take % pound of
almonds , blanch , dry , chop and gently
brown almonds. Put sugar , glucose
and lemon Juice together In a sauce
pan and melt without stirring. When
sugar is quite liquid add nuts and mix
well together. Turn mixture on oiled
slab and roll thin. Cut Into small
squares.
EASY NOW TO OPEN CANS
Device of New York Man Will Do
Away With Much That Has
Caused Complications.
A new kind of can opener has been
designed by a New York man. It is
radically different from the types
heretofore In use and resembles noth
ing so much as a nut cracker. A
pair of fevers are pivoted together at
one end. On one of the levers Is a
spike , which Is thrust into the top of
the can and holds that arm station
ary for the other to revolve upon. The
other lever has notches along it and
has a movable cutter device with pro
jections on the inside to engage the
notches and hold it In a particular
place. This arm of the implement de
scribes a circle and as it does so the
blade shears through the tin and re
moves a circular piece , leaving the
piece fast by one small strip which
can act as a hinge or can be broken
off and the top entirely removed. The
cutter can be adjusted so that the cir
cle described is the size of a small or
large can or comes within the boun
daries of a rectangular can. The de
vice is said to be much easier of op
eration than the openers which are
pumped up and flown along the edge
of the can.
Shirt Waist Ironing.
It Is difficult to iron between the
buttons on the shirt waist without
breaking them loose or leaving a puck
ered edge. A good plan Is to have a
very thick , narrow pad of flannel or
canton flannel to slip under the right
side for the buttons to stick into while
.you iron the wrong side , then run the
iron once around the outside edge on
the right side.
Almond and Cheese Patties.
Mix together one cupful milk curd
or cottage cheese , one cupful almonds
blanched and pounded to a fine paste ,
one-half cupful each cream and sugar ,
the well beaten yolks of three eggs ,
and a teaspoonful of rose flavoring. Fill
patty pans lined with a good paste and
bake in a moderate oven about ten
minutes.
Marble Cake.
Whites of 2 eggs , 1 large cup su
gar , % cup milk , % cup butter , 2 cups
flour , I } * , teaspoonfuls baking powder.

Mistletoe Is Dangerous.
Few people who know
only as a desirable feature of Christ
mas decorations understand that the
plant Is a parasite dangerous to the
life of trees in the regions In which
It grows. It is oHly a question of
time , after mistletoe once begins to
grow upon a , tree be'fore the tree It
self will be killed. The parasite saps
the life of the infected branches. For
tunately , it is of slow growth , taking
years to develop to large proportions ,
but when neglected , it invariably ruins
all trees it reaches.
English Women Smoke Pipes.
The latest fancy of the woman-
moker Is a pipe not the tiny affair
that suffices for the Japanese , but a
good-sized brier or a neat meer-
chaum. The pipe is boldly carried
along with a gold card case and chain-
purse. For some time now the cig
arette has given place to a cigar ,
small in size and mild in quality.
Women said they were tired of the
cigarette , and wanted a bigger smoke.

Cripple Rides Bicycle.
George Anstey , aged 12 , a cripple ,
of Leicester , England , is one of the
moat remarkable cyclists In the coun
try. Both his legs are withered and
useless , but the Leicester Cripples'
Guild has provided him with a two-
wheeled pedalless machine , with a
padded tube covering the axle bar.
Across this he lies face foremost , and
with wooden clogs strapped to his
hands he propels himself along the
streets and roads in a marvelously
rapid manner. He has complete con
trol of the machine , his hands acting
as pedals , steering gear , and brake
combined.
Pretty Good Definition.
We hear some funny things In Fleet
treet sometimes , and the following
definition of the height of aggravation ,
by a gentleman in rather shaky boots ,
whom'we encountered in a well-known
hostelry the other day , struck us as
being particularly choice.
"The 'eight of haggravation , gentle
men , " said this pothouse humorist , set
ting his pewter on the counter and
looking round proudly , with the air of
one about to let off a good thing , "the
'eight of haggravation why , trying
to ketch a flea out o' yer ear with a
pair of boxin' gloves. " London Tit-

An Alaskan Luncheon.
Runners of woven Indian basketry ,
with white drawnwork doilies at each
of the 12 covers , were used on an oval
mahogany table. The doilies were
made at Sitka. In the middle of the
table a mirror held a tall central vase
of frosted glass , surrounded by four
smaller vases , all filled with white
spring blossoms. The edge of the
mirror was. banked with the same
flowers. Four totem , poles were placed
on doilies in the angles made by the
runners.
Place cards were -water colors of
Alaskan scenery. Abalone shells held
salted nuts , and tiny Indian baskets
held bonbons. The soup spoons were
of horn , several of the dishes used
were made by Alaskan Indians , and
the cakes were served on baskets.
The menu was as follows : Poisson
a la Bering Sea ( halibut chowder ) ,
Yukon climbers ( broiled salmon , po
tatoes Julienne ) , snowbirds avec
auroraborealis ( roast duck with jelly ) ,
Shungnak river turnips , Tanana
beets , Skagway hash ( salad ) , Fair
banks nuggets ( ripe strawberries ar
ranged on individual dishes around a
central mound of powdered sugar ) ,
arctic slices ( brick ice cream ) , Circle
City delights ( small cakes ) , Klondike
nuggets ( yellow cheese In round balls
on crackers ) , Nome firewater ( coffee ) .

* Bankers and Bank Notes.
Four men , three of whom were con

Wall street district , were discussing
United States paper currency and the
disappearance of counterfeits. "We
are so sure nowadays , " said one of
the party , "as to the genuineness of
bills that little attention is paid to
them in handling , except as to de
nomination. " To prove his assertion
he took a $10 yellowback from his
pocket , and , holding it up , asked who
could tell whose portrait it bore. No
one knew , and by way of coaching
the broker said it was the first treas
urer of the United States. Again no
one knew the name. "Why , It's

out and let it cool and pound it , and
then you put It in a thing that bores
holes in it. Then you screw it to
gether , and paint it , and put steam in
it , and it goes splendidly ; and they
take it to a drafting room and make
a bluep rint of it. But one thing I for

Two Very Old Ladles.
We have heard a great deal lately
about long-lived people , but it is prob
able that the oldest two people in the
world today are Frau Dutkievitz and
another old lady named Babavasllka.
The former lives at Posem , In Prus
sian Poland , and was born on Febru
ary 21 , 1785. She is therefore one
hundred and twenty-five years old.
The latter , however , is nine months
her senior , having been born in May ,
1734.
She is stfll a fairly hale old woman ,
and for nearly one hundred years
worked in the fields. Her descendants
number close on 100 , and these now
make her a joint allowance. She lives
at the village of Bavelsko , whose
neighborhood she has never quitted
during the whole of her long life. She
remembers events which happened at
the beginning of last century much
more clearly than those of the last
40 years. Dundee Advertiser.
Too Ardent a Lover.
Georgette Fontano , an embroiderer
who lives in the Rue Sevres in Paris ,
has found herself condemned to a
month's imprisonment for what seems
to her a harmless act.
She was going home from a concert
a few evenings ago when she decided
she would like to see her fiance. As
he happens to be a fireman whose
station is In her own neighborhood it
occurred to her It would be very easy
to summon him to her side by break
ing the glass of the fire alarm and
sounding a call.
She did so anr in a few moments
fire engines came from several direc
tions , all laden with firemen , of course ,
but alas ! her fiance was not among-
them , and more than that all the firti-
men were angry , and before she knew
what had happened she was taken tea
a magistrate , who proceeded to make
the course of true love run unsmoothly
by sending her to prison for a month
in spite of her tears and protests that
she thought it would be a simple way
of bringing her fiance to her side.

That Suit for Libel
Against the Postum Cereal Co. , Ltd. , Gave a Splendid Chance
to Bring Out Facts
A disagreement about advertising arose
with a "weekly" Journal.
Following it , an attack on us appeared in
their editorial columnssneering ; at the claims
we made particularly regarding Appendicitis.
We replied through the regular papers and
the "weekly" thought we hit back rather too
hard and thereupon sued for libel.
The advertisement the "weekly" attacked
us about claimed that in many cases of appen
dicitis an operation could be avoided by dis
continuing indigestible food , washing out the
bowels and taking a predigested food Grape-
Nuts.
Observe we said MANY cases not all.
Wouldn't that knowledge be a comfort to
those who fear a surgeon's knife as they fear
death ?
The "weekly" writer said that was a lie.
We replied that he was ignorant of the facts.
He was put on the stand and compelled to
admit he was not a Dr. and had no medical
knowledge of appendicitis and never investi
gated to find out if the testimonal letters to
our Co. were genuine.
A famous surgeon testified that when an
operation was required Grape-Nuts would not
obviate it. True.
We never claimed that when an operation
was required Grape-Nuts would prevent it.
The surgeon testified bacteria [ germs ] helped -
ed to bring on an attack and bacteria was
grown by undigested food frequently.
We claimed and proved by other famous
experts that undigested food was largely
responsible for appendicitis.
We showed by expert testimony that many
cases a e healed without a knife , but by stop
ping the use of food which did not digest , and
when fcod was required again it was helpful
to use a.pre'digested food which , did not overtax -
tax the weakened organs of digestion.
hen a pain in the-right side appears/lt late
to i
hospital and at the risk of death be cut.
Plain common sense shows the better way
is to stop food that evidently has not been
digested.
Then , when food Is required , use an easily
digested food. Grape-Nuts or any other if
you know it to be predigested ( partly digested
before taking ) .
We brought to Court analytical chemists
from New York , Chicago and Mishawaka , Ind. ,
who swore to the analysis of Grape-Nuts and
that part of the starchy part of the wheat and
barley had been transformed into sugar , the
kind of sugar produced in the tiuman body" by
digesting starch ( the large part'of food ) .
Some of the State chemists brought on by
the "weekly" said Grape-Nuts could not be
called a "predigested" food because not all of
it was digested outside the body.
The other chemists said any food which had
been partly or half digested outside the body
was commonly known as "predigested. "
Splitting hairs about the meaning of a word.
It is sufficient that if only one-half of the
food is "predigested , " it is easier on weakened
stomach and bowels than food in which no
part is predigested.
To show the facts we introduce Dr. Thos.
Darlington , former chief of the N. Y. Board
of Health , Dr. Ralph W. Webster , chief of the
Chicago Laboratories , and Dr. B. Sachs , N. Y.
If we were a little severe in our denuncia
tion of a writer , self-confessed ignorant about
appendicitis and its cause , it is possible the
public will excuse us , in view of the fact that
our head , Mr. C. W. Post , has made a lifetime
study of food , food digestion and effects , and
the conclusions are indorsed by many of the
best medical authorities of the day.
Is it possible that we are at fault for
suggesting , as a Father and Mother might , to
one otthe _ familyjwho announced a" pain in the
side : . /'Stop using the food , greasy meats ,
gravies.mince JJe. cheese , , $ Domuch'starchy
food , etc. , etc. , which has not been digested ,
then when again ready for food use Grape-
Nuts because it is easy of digestion ? "
Or should the child be at once carted off tea
a hospital and cut ?
We hate known of many cases wherein the
approaching signs of appendicitis have dis
appeared by the suggestion being followed.
No one better appreciates the value of a
skilful physician when a person is in the awful
throes of acute appendicitis , but "an- ounce
of prevention is worth a'pound of cure. "
Just plain old common sense is helpful even
"
nowadays. "
This trial demonstrated Grape-Nuts food
is pure beyond question !
It is partly predigested.
Appendicitis generally has rise from undi-
It is not always necessary to operate.
It is best to stop all foodT
When ready to begln feeding use a predigested -
gested food. '
It is palatable and strong in Nourishment.
It will pay fine returns in health to quit the
heavy breakfasts and lunches and use leas
food but select food certainly known to con
tain the elements nature requires to sustain
the body. May we be permitted to suggest a
breakfast of fruit , Grape-Nuts and cream ,
two soft boiled eggs , and some bet toast tind
cocoa , 'milk or Postun ?
The question of wtether Grape-Nuts dees or
does not contain the elements which nature
requires for the nourishment of the brain , also
of its purity , will bet treated In later news
paper articles.
Good food is important and its effect on the
body is also important.
