The venson season is at It's height. The proper
cooking and serving Of this royal meat is almost lost
art except with few great chefs who pride them
selves on their game dinners. There time when
all ladies took pleasure in their skill In cooking this
noble meat venison steak was properly served
on chatting dish, being cooked at the table by this
amid heat and never trusted to mental hands, but
attended TO by the hostess by the host himself
Dut the day of the silver chafng-dsh has gone by
and the cookery Of that gentle mannerly time has
given place TO dishes which be prepared in the
Kitchen without trouble. Venison steak is often
served on our tables than the roasting pieces. by
the most approved methods the steaks are seasoned
with salt and pepper rubbed with Tablespoonful OF
oil 10 six steaks very danty drcdged with -four, and
broiled five minutes on side and then five minutes
on the other They may be served with curTant jelly
or with maitre dhotel sauce. If venslon Is cooked
in chahngdish OH the table the lamp is lighted, the
dish is made hot tablespoonful Of butter IS melted
the steaks are cut quite thin and cooked three minutes
on one side and three minutes the other. They
are basted with tablespoonful Of current Jelly and
three tabIespoonfuls Of port during the last two
minutes Of cooking. They should be thin enough TO
be cooked brown in the time given, yet be deicatey
red inside. IL the chafng.dish Is hot, the
venison will lose Of its juices by this method, and
1t may be served to the guests at once without los
ing the least heat The proper part OF venson for
steaks Is the "noixS Of the leg it is equivalent TO
the tender part OF round Of beef 10 the frcandeau
or cushion of a leg Of veal. II furnishes only about
six steaks which must be freed from supernuous fat
and nattened "a little with mallet.

BeefsteaI bones need be thrown away, as
they will make an excellent soup Crack the bones
in pieces and put them In closely covered saucepan

sliced onion. If you want a tomato soup, add half a

At this season Of the year. when the coal is being
put in for the winter f 1t has not already been put
inl it Is well to remind houSeholdcrs that
there are two kinds of coal-the white ash,
which burns rapidly and gives out comparatively
little heat and the red ash, which is harder, burns
up more slowly but lasts nearly twice as long and
gives out larger amount Of heat The red ash coal
is better for the furnace and for the range though
if the kitchen maid gets up late in tho morning she
may complain because it does not burn up rapidly
enough for her. The white ash, or soft anthracite
COAL is better for in the CRATE because 1t makes
a more brilliant fire and yet does not produce the
dust that bituminous coal does.

pare sailed almonds for the table, blancb them by

tablespoonful of olive oil every cupful of nuts.
Let them stand two hours. Sprinkle tablespoonful OF
salt over each cupfL mixing it in thoroughly with
spoon. Spread them out on bright tin biscuit pan
