How to. Cook Potatoas-

have been dining at one of the best
clubs in London. But the potatoes are
uniformly bad, waxy and indigestible
do not write merely of club grievance
l am an old housekeeper-tmarried over
twenty years. l am passionately fond of
potatoes, and l rarely ever get them to my
liking. l had to go to - the other day,
and my host is large potato grower. At
dinner the potatoes were perfect-ravish-
ingl A few questions and answers elected
the remarkable fact that my own table
was usually supplied by my hosts pota-
toes. But mine were always like those of
the club-dull, sodden, waxy and abomina-
ble.h His were light, dry, mealy and per-
fectly delightful. s.r-. s..+i..s
Being a bit of a cook myself arranged
with my host to spend the next forenoon
in his kitchen. The potato is composed al
most entirely of pure starch. To make
this starch agreeable to the eye and the
palate its corpuscular elements must be
split up by heat in the presence of excess
of moisture, and at a temperature Just a
, little higher than boiling water at the sea
level (212 degs.). Now, happen to live at
such a height above sea level that water
probably boils at 210 degs Hence never
get good potatoes My hosts house was
just as mine, and his cook said that the
water in his well did not suit potatoes
she knew nothing about the sea level a |
temperature-so that she was obliged to
.'soften it with salt.'
She put big handful of salt in the pot
, of potatoes, and think raised the boiling
point to about ZIG degs. Then, after boil
Z ing them till the skins burst, she poured
off the water, cooked the lid half off the
pot, put the latter on the hob, and thus
for about fifteen minutes she thoroughly
dried them. The result was amazing and
delightful. l went home, and 1 made a
series of careful experiments. You cannot
steam potato into perfection unless you
inclose the steam SO as to raise its temper
ature to about ZIG degs.
Potatoes must always be boiled in their
skins and in pretty strong saline solu-
tion in order to get them in perfection, de
lightful to the palate and easy of digestion.
After such treatment they may be made
into soup; they may be baked or roasted
for a. few minutes only in their skins;
they may be mashed, cooked la maitre,
sautc, or fifty things may be done with
them, but. first of all they must be boiled
in their skins, with plenty of salt, and
then well dried.-PalI Mall Gazette

Yarn Comes Back from Europe.
Some years ago the APPEAL pub
lished story about John Mackey
and Maurice Hoeflich, jumping
grasshoppers for mining claims.
In this connection the Stockton
Mail has the following:
The story which first appeared
in the Carson APPEAL, went all
over the world and was translated
into nearly every European Ian
guage. 1t is not new now Of
course, but a translation Of a Ger
man version Of it which was pub
lished in paper of Stuttgart is
rather funny:
Mr.. the Herr Hoeflich has from
America got the news OF a remark
able occurrence to his son, the
Herr Maurice Hoeflich, who many
of the Virginia mines of the Com
stock of America owns. 1t APP
pears that the Herr John Mackey
owned some mines of the Com
stock of the Consolidated Virginia
of Washoe also, and it became
necessary at one time to decide
who should have them all to pre-
vent the constant bloodshed of the
revolver pistol and the knife
Bowie, which is the custom. There
upon it YVES agreed by the Burgo
master OF the village aud the lead
ing banker, whose name Faro
Dealer, that the Herr Mackey and
the Herr Hoeflich should decide
the ownership OF all the mines by
the wager of the grasshopper, as
is the custom there. Tie rule Of
the wager is for each party a
grasshOpper to select and on a
line placing them to touch them
with stick that they might the
high jump make, which to the
higher one gave the winning q
the contest. 1t appears that nc

the holes in after them, and the
