How to Use the ''Left-overs." "

an earthen pudding dish with a cup of

A New Use for Lemons.

'If you ever use lemons" remarked one
housewife to lady friend, "and have a
portion of one left over, be sure you do
not throw it away. am never without
them in the house, as [ always use them
for f1avoring, but of what use are pieces :?
"Just this. The next time you think
you have done with a lemon just dip it in
salt and rub your copper kettle or stew
pan with it. You will be surprised to find
what brilliant surface you will obtain if
you rub the article Instantly with dry,
soft cloth. You can polish all brass work
by the same means, every stain disap-
pearing as if by magic. A moldy lemon
put into a dirty saucepan half full OF
water and boiled for half an hour, ,cleanses
the utensil amazingly and removes any
odor such as fish or onions. Try it and
see if | am not right"

POTATO SALAD.

This is very nice for supper as an agree
able relish, when you fear that your table
is a little scanty. Chop three or fourcold
boiled potatoes, with onehard boiled egg,
and one half of small onion (don't get
too much onion, just suspicion OF one
you know. Then make anice salad dress
ing of one half cup Of vinegar onetablt-
spoon butter a ateaspoonful mustard and
one egg; cook it like custard and pour
over the potato. Hyou happen to have
left from dinner any cold boiled beets, it
will be a nice addition as also bits of Gel
cry chopped in it. But as we cannot al

stitute little cabbage or caulifower if
you like. Have apretty salad dish ifyou

can of tomatoes and is very good. A
contributor sends a recipe for this num-
Der which is very nice. Beside meat OF
some kind, and potatoes, one kind OF
vegetable is enough for a private family
of ordinary means. One of the finest ca-
terers in one of the largest hotels in this
country once said: cit is sheer folly for
private families to try to setahotel table:
two or three dishes perfectly cooked and
well served, are enough for any person to
make meal at one time; indeed many
of my wealthiest customers habitually
order only two courses and are content
with them" With the meat and vege-
tables, pickles of course are always ad-
missable. Ifthereis time to make salad,
as for instance the potato salad given be
low, it will be good although it may be
more strictly a supper dish. Other accom-
paniments may suggest themselves ii de
sired For the dessert, fresh fruit if in sea-
son, and this can be hadfrom our delicious
oranges, which are said to be 'sgOld in the
morning and silver at noon" and far more
healthful than rich puddings or pies, or
she may have a jar of fruit of her own can
ming SO superior to any other, and good
enough even if not made for an emergency
dinner. OF course a nice dessert of ''New
Years pudding" such as we give below,
together with delicious cup ofcoffee, clear
as amber and not too strong, will greatly
add to a hastily prepared meal.
Not to fall into tiresome routine, but
to keep upa variety ofappetizing dinners,
to make nice, tempting relishes, to cook
well and do it economically, is an accom-
plishment of far more value than to bean
adept in painting, embroidery orcrochet-
ing. 1t can be acquired only by pains-tak-
ing and study. We pity that poor pa
tient husband who said: "What lovely
dinners should have if they could only
be crochetedP'
Let our wives and daughters realize
that not until they are able to deity and
quickly prepare wholesome, wellcooked
dinner, combining with it plenty of inge-
nuity and good Judgment, will they be con-
sidered Capable women" Then the
question: "What shall we have for dinner
and how shall | cook it ?" will never need
startle them in their helpless perplexity.

what Shall We Have for Dinner


Fully three hundred and sixty-five times
in the year, without any possibility OF /
forgetting it, this perplexing question is
asked by the busy housewife. 1t is aper-
ennial question that has a sort OF an i'm
perative way with it which will admit OF
no evasion, for it always demands def
mite answer.
Unless the housewife has some well
arranged system Of supplying the larder,
things often run behind and she finds her
self in some meager desert place, living
from hand to mouth 1t is then, that
this question comes home to her with
startling significance, What shall we have
for dinner?' She is very strongly inclined
to emphasize the word ''sHALL," and If
writing it, would do soinitalics, placinga
few good sized exclamation points and
Interrogation marks after the whole
question under debate. So far as it is an
anxious question, depends upon hesitate
of her purse and perhaps the place where
she lives.
Those Of us who reside in ourmorepop
ulous cities and villages, where echoicecuts
md tender, juicy roasts can always be had
convenient markets, but little realize
Importance of this daily recurring
hstion to those who live remote from
Ailroads, and cannot have what they
want for the asking even if they were able
to pay the price demanded.

Parloa's method of broiling that bit of

as he lays his knife beside the platter, S'for

man or woman whose appetites are always
whetted by toll, it makes but little differ
ence if only well earned hungeris is satisfied.
Fastidiousness and criticism in that direc
ton find but little place in his convenient
stomach But when semi-invalids and
those with tagging appetites, and yet
must eat any how, crave something diff
ferent from the weary, every day bill of
fare, and long for a few delicacies and
varieties, the housewife S ingennityls taxed
