THE OMAIIA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY. AFRrL 23. 1907. s ? 7 f vaV K(C(QM try- t POINTS ABOUT BUYING MEAT Adrica fro the. Exper.tnos of a Rattan Ttnt'i Steward, MOST ECONOMICAL PARTS CF THE BEEF How to Tell flood Meat Something; About Corned Beef and How to Prepare and Cook It. There Is a restaurant noted among shop per nnil business womni for Its delicious cooking and Its low prices. When ex plaining to a reporter the other day how she managed to get up nice dishes at llttlo expense the atewnrd nave away many se cret of value to housekeeper who wish to make the moat of their materials. "To begin with we never huy the most expensive of 1 never nuV th tenderloin of beef. It Is the tenderest. the most tasteless and the most expensive part of the animal. "Neither a tenderloin nor a sirloin steak Is as Juicy or as nutritious as a round Steak, a chuck steak, or those little tender teaks which a (rood butcher cuts from the flang. A slice of sirloin steak of the proper thickness will weigh from two and a half to four pounds. The trimming away of the fat and bone considerably reduces this weight, so that what meat remains Is very expensive. Now the round steak Is oil meat, without bone or superfluous fat, and consequently economical so far as waste Is concerned, as well a lower In price. "In buying beef a housekeeper should know that backward from the head the price of good beef Increases and that tt decreases downward toward the legs In both quarters. The neck pieces, those that come Immediately behind the ears, make delicious stews when properly cooked and seasoned. "In the upper portion of the foTe quarter are the chuck rtba, which make excellent roasts and steaks. The chuck steak I con sider as good as the sirloin and It sells at about two-thirds the price. "The upper half of the shoulder Is high priced and I seldom buy either the roasts of the stew pieces that are cut from It. The lower half Includes the brisket pieces, cross ribs and plate pieces. These cuts all come within my means, Resides cutting mall steaks from the cross rib piece, we use It for beef a la mode and pot roasting. The other parts I use for stows and also when buying corned beef I select those cuts. Concerning Better Cats. "If a person must have sirloin and at the same time wishes to be economical, then I would advise her to get that cut from the hip below the loin. It contains only a small knuckle bone and sells for much less than the prime ribs. It Is juicy, well flavored and fairly tender, making good steaks, roasts and pot roasts. "Tho chuck parts, while usually from one-half to one-third cheaper than the prime ribs, are equal to them In succu lence and flavor, and some portions are equal to them In all respects, besides hav Ing mors meat In proportion to the bone. 'Bom of the best butchers prefer the beat part of the chuck of a good animal to tho finest sirloin or tenderloin. From poor or Inferior animals tha chuck steaks are not Ceslrable. "For a large family roast I wotild recom mend tho first cut of the loin. It Is called the round bone sirloin and contains little tenderloin, but is excellent and economical. The butcher should take the bone out and tie up tha roast handsomely. By no means hould the bone be left with the butcher. "For a small family roast, weighing from five to ten pounds, I would suggest the small end of the loin. It has the same ad vantages that I hare described In the first cut and should be treated In tho same way. "Many persona have a decided preference (or a brisket roast. I have been told by my head waitress that most of the cus tomers who asked for It are southerners. They want the brisket Itself, that juicy fat that gives the name to the out. "For corning I usually select the pieces I want cured and the butcher does it for me. In picking out pieces to be corned I am careful to see that the fat Is mixed all through the lean. For my purpose I prefer tha plate, navel, brisket, rumps and edge- bones. "While much depends on tha quality of your corned beef, I believe more depends on the cooking. The majority of people seem to think that anybody can cook the New England boiled dinner. There never waa a greater mistake. The materials are Inexpensive, but will not be good unless carefully cooked. "While It Is harder to lodge the quality of salted meats than fresh, one may soon learn to know a good piece of corned beef. While much paler than the fresh. It has a natural color. It should not be slimy nor have a disagreeable odor. If well selected freah beef is corned In fresh brine neither tha brine nor the beef will taste or smell unpleasantly. Jadala Meat. "In Judging meat always remember that any lean animal is Inferior. Good beef should have a fair proportion of fat about the kidneys and overlying the loin and ribs. The lean or muscular portions should be ingrained or marbled with little streaks or dots of fat "If the animal Is in good health, rested and cooled when slaughtered, the suet fat will be firm, white, dry and crumbly. If this fat should be yellow, oily, or fibrous the beef Is inferior, and I would never ad vise buying it. however low the price. "Of course beef may be too fat. The marbled appearance is the best teat, and one will soon learn to' know the desirable amount of fat. "Oood beef should have a dark red color when first cut, changing to brighter red or cherry after a few moments' exposure to the air. A bluish, or. dull, dark red color Indicates poor beef. It should look Juicy, be smooth grained and velvety to the touch and somewhat Arm snd elastic. The bones and sinews should be comparatively mall. ' "Steaks should never be allowed to lie any length of time after being cut and never placed on Ice. The meat should be ripened before cutting and then promptly cooked. "There would be a general exclamation of horror It our customers were told that most of ths steaks eaten in this house are fried. Tea. actually fried. Properly fried nr. 1 ivotaarov ofAlco steak Is Just as good in every way a broiled. "In the first place, you must have the pan piping hot and rub it with a bit of fresh beef suet. Wipe the steak dry. spread It on the pan. and after a couple of seconds turn It. Keep up this turning process, adding extra bits of fresh suet shaved thin, until the steak Is as done as required. "Place In a hot dish, put a few scraps of butter on,the top, then set Into the oven of the stove for two minutes. After that it Is ready to serve. "A beefs heart Is an economical dish when properly cooked. In selecting them those with much clear, lively fat around the top are the best. Calves' hearts are smaller, more tender, but not as Juicy They should be stuffed and roasted or braised. 'For breakfast both tripe and liver are economical. Calf's liver Is as a rule more tender than that of an older animal, though carefully selected and prepared beef liver Is very good eating. When buying care should be taken to see that the color Is yellowlflh red, clear and bright. 'In selecting tripe choose that which Is thick, white and fat. The honeycomb part Is the best. 'Ox talis, as every one knows, make a fine soup. Three Joints will be sufficient for a large tureen and It Is Inexpensive." WOMAN'S PL A 51 IX PROVERB I'arompllmentary Thlnca Said of Het In Many Lanaaaaes. The treatment that womankind receive In the proverbs of various peoples formii the subject of an article by U. P. Floberi In the Paris Qaulols. On the whole, the array Is far from complimentary. Among the Spanish maxims one of thu gentlest Is "Women and mules obey better when caressed than coerced." Another I The man wins much who loses his wife." Here are a few more: Man is tow; woman Is fire and the devil blows the bellows. The tears of women are worth much, though they cost little. The fox is cunning, but tha woman who loves knows far more than he. The proverbs of the Arabs place a very low value on women. Here are some sane pies: The beauty of man is In his spirit; the spirit of woman Is in her beauty. Always consult your wile, but do as you please. When you want to get square with a man. give him a handsome wife; when you want revenge on a woman, give her a handsome husband. The Hindoos Are not much more respect' ful than the Arabs. They say: The coquette is like your shadow; chase her and she flees from you, flee from her and she chases you. Do you want to test the fineness of goldT Use acid. The strength of an oxT Beat It. The nature of a man? Let him talk. The thoughts of a woman? There's no way. Next oomes the cynical Chinaman with a cutting maxim: The tongue of a woman la a dagger and she never lets It grow rusty. The spirit of a woman la of quicksilver and her heart Is of wax. The Persian says: When you go to war, say a prayer; when you go to sea, say two prayera; when you get married, pray all the time. To a question, "What la a woman T" the Turk answers, "A prisoner;" the Albanian. "a slave;' the Bervlan, "a servant," tha Bulgarian, "a companion;" the Qreek, "a queen." The gallant French are among tha most brutal In their folk sayings about women. "Where there are dogsv" they say, "there are fleas; where there la bread, there are mice; where there's a woman, therea the devil." Another current saying fas, "Women and fools never forgive." Also: A woman laughs when aha can and weeps wnen she wins. What the devil can't do. woman accom pllahes. The man who beats his wife Is like a man who beata a bag of flour. AH that's good flies away; what's left is not worth having. Man can rely on the fidelity of his dog to the last breath; of a woman to the next temptation. He who believes his wife deceives himself. He who doubts her is deceived all the same. Man has two good days In his life, the one on which he takes and the one on which he loses a wife. The compiler was unable to find any lan guage In which the proverbs were friendly to women. WAKTS rETVSIONS FOR OLD NClisKS Mrs. Dm of Philadelphia, Will Ask Cona-ress to Care far Volunteers. PHILADELPHIA. April it. Mrs. Clarissa F. Dye, aged 7B years, of this city, presi dent of the Association of Army Nurses of the Civil War, who did herolo work at Gettysburg and on other battlefields during the rebellion, is collecting data from the NO and more surviving female nurses In the United State who saw service on the field of battle and In hospitals during the war with a view of furnishing congress with facts looking to the securing of pensions from the government for these volunteer nurses. "Many of these women today," said Mrs. Dye, "are poor and destitute widows and too old to work. They were volunteer nurses and left their comfortable homes during the time of the civil war to nurse the sick and dying soldiers. Their work was one of love and sympathy and they received no compensation from the govern ment The contract nurses were provided for, receiving a pension of S12 monthly. I plead for the poor, aged women who nursed back to life many a sick and wounded hero of the battlefield. "The government should certainly make provision for them and I believe It will next December when the bill will be brought up." Celebrates Seventh Blrthdny. Mrs. C.

The shrugging of dainty feminine and of heavy masculine shoulders, the Bound of swift, sibilant foreign conversation or of labored speech In broken English, the flashing of diamonds and Jeweled hands these were some of the outward signs which Indicated In the hotels the coming to Omaha of a great leaven of musical talent, the Conrled Opera company. M.

M. Caruso Is a man of medium helglit, heavy build, with massive face, a small. Jet black moustache and Jet black hair. He wore a double-breasted black suit, white vest, patent leather shoes, gray gaiters. A Jeweled pin was in his tie. llei carried a heavy gold-headed cane. M. Caruso speaks little English. He was Just leaving his apartment. In Ills hand he had a bunch of souvenir postal cards. There must have been seventy-five of them, addressed to all kinds of unheard of pluces. "These to my friends, from A to K,". he explained, tapping the bunch. His secretary, M. Vlafuro, explained that M. Caruso had that morning addressed the cards to those of hla friends In the old country whese names begin with letters from A to K. He does this In every place where he stops. Tomorrow he will send cards to the friends whose names begin with letters, L to Z. Sot Like Dear Florence. "A very nice country Is Ahmaha," aald Caruso, looking sternly out of the window.

NEW YORK, April 22,-The application of Beta Tokakl and others of this city for a certificate of incorporation of the Na tional Roosevelt league was denied tori ay by Justice Blschoff In the supreme court. The principal object of the proposed or ganization was "to aid In securing by all parties and citizens of all parties, Irrespec tive of political affiliations, the nomination of Theodore Roosevelt to succeed himself as president of the L'nlted 8tates." The petition declares that present political parties and a large number of public men, notwithstanding their public professions, are entirely too much attached to govern ing the people for a party and by a party, or of a class for a class and by a class. It was to this latter portion of the pe tition that Justice Blschoff took exception. He took the ground that while these al legations may lie proper subject fur de hate they are not proper when placed In formal articles of Incorporation. He there, fore refused to affix hla signature to the document until the Improper matter shall have been eliminated. VIRGINIA NEGRESS IS KILLED Four White Men Meld at Danville for Murder of a Womn n.
