Buying Meats.
Money can be saved by choosing
with reasonable care and buying
cuts of meat that entail the least
In observing lamb and mut
ton, ascertain that the fat is white
nd of a waxy hardness. The flsh
should be fine grained and of a
brownish-red color, where freshly
cut. The flesh seen through the
skin should be of a purplish appear
ance. The fat of beef should be
either cream-colored or a pale yel
low, and the flesh a close-grained
cherry red. The sirloin and round
are best for roasting and boiling
the ribs and brisket second best, be
cause of the greater waste of bone.
The tenderest pork is small and not
too fat. The fat should be white,
and the flesh a firm texture, close
grained delicate pink, free from
spots. The flesh of veal is less firm-
textured than that of other meats
and of a fresh pink color, while the
fat has. a whitish, semi-translucent
sort of look.
- Canned Fruits.
Canned fruits or vegetables, such
as peaches, pineapples, peas, beans
or cabbage, to be served as salad,
should be opened, turned into-a dish,
and chilled for an hoar or so before
servings , .

HOLDING A HUSBAND
Adele Garrison's New Phase of
; Revelations oj a Wife
"We Shall Be Starved." ,
An unusually violent, bump of the
train, which it seemed to mylVou
bled, fitful sleeps had been doiiiR
nothing but biinip all nisht long
brought me bolt upright on my nar
row couch with wide-open, terrified
eyes.
For an instant 1 had no idea
where I was a troublesome little
idiosyncracy of mine and I ranie
perilously near screaming-with yzwr.
That I remained silent was a source
of almost prayerful thanks-giving'
when I became conscious of tnv
surroundings "and found Rita
Brown's big black eyes fixed with
-yc-Ullu c Illume UJ'UU IIIC. '
"A little bit hipped, aren't von,
dearie?" she queried sweetly, raising
herself on one elbow; "But I don't
blame you. This engine has done
everything but stand on its head all
flight long."
A Glorious View.
I put a firm, rcir- upon mv nerves
and -jerked them into shape. .T'.
show any sort- of weakness- before
Rita Brown had somehow become
intolerable to me..
"It succeeded in doiitg that iusi
now, didn't it?" I queried careless
ly. "I am not quire sure even yet
that my head is properly fastened
onmy body."
"It was a bump!" she admitted
"Wonder where we are?"
She pulled up the heavy curtain ot
the car window as she spoke, and
we both involuntarily caught our
breaths at the bea.jty of the sun tit
ping the soft green of the cedars
and the brown of the other trees still
m their winter dress. . .
' For a long minute we silently
drank it in, and . I forgave Ki'.i
Brown much for' the true artist
spirit wbich stilled her flamboyant
tongue. ' J
But the sight of the. sun inaie me
think of something, else beside its
bea-uty. It bestirred me to'cousilta
tion of my wrist watch. As I looked
tip I saw Rita Brown watching me
rnd knew that she had read my
thought.
"The price of tips must hav'e "one
up,, dearie," she drawled. "I thought
you gave : that cullud gen'lemai
enough, to make him remember vour
call, but evidently he didn't' think
so",'
The spell of our mutual adifira
tion of the -beauty framed by our car
fraction of a second. Then he an
single word in the English language
which I detest mote than another it
is the appellation "dearie" when ap
plied to myself. I could cheerfully
strangle any one who Calls me by i
. Someone Overhears.
I did not trust myself to answer
the mocking mirth of the girl across
the narrow ajsle. So I pushed the
call button for the porter, and rising
hastily, wrapped Inyself in . my
kimono, slipped my feet into mules,
and stationed myself just .behind
the door to wait for the porter's
knock. Behind me I heard the rus
tle of the bed clothing- turned back,
the impact of Miss Brown's feet
against the floor, and knew that she
was hurrying out of bed in order
to dress and be ready for Ihe trip
around Washington as soon as t.
At the porter's low knock I
opened the door enough to speak
through it a trirlle sharply, I must
confess, for I had tipped him rather
liberally, and his neglect annoyed
me.
"Did I not fell you to call me in
time to see Washington?" I asked
and was instantly made aware by
the expression of the man's face that
in some' way I had made myself
ridiculous.
"I know, miss," he said deferen
tially, "but yoh see, we won't reach .
Washington foh two hours yet most
probably."
"Ohl" I exclaimed blankly.' Be
fore I could question him- further,
Rita Brown's voice struck in across
my shoulder.
"Why is that?"
"Engine trouble, .miss," the man
returned. "We's had a pow'ful. lot
of troubles through the night.".
"The engines on the railroads now
are only fit for the scrap heap, any
way," she interposed' tartly, but the
man's only, recognition of .her re
mark was a slight bow in, her gen
eral direction. A sudden recollec
tion of the times chedule' made me
utter another question quickly:
"But .we are scheduled to start out
of Washington at 9 o'clock. If we
are so late in getting there, will there
be a stop long enough to admit of
any sightseeing?"
"It am very doubtful, miss," with
the reluctance of his race to admit
anything .unpleasant for 'a ques
tioner. Rita. Brown 's voice struck t in
again; this time with a' touch of
alarm.
"Where is the diner' put. on?"
Tire porter hesitated for just the
fraction of a second. Then he an
swered reluctantly:
"Not until after' we reach Wash
ineton."
The porter stepped aside to let
some one pass him. As he did so
the girl's voice shrilled out. vulgarly:
"I suppose that means Richmond
We shall he. starved by then."
The passenger turned his head
quickly, attentively, and then passed
oii as swiftly. And I. with a little
start, recognized Maj. Hugh Grant,
land.
