bread crumbs, and over that some grated
cheese. Dot with tiny flakes OF butter.
Put the shells on an iron pan and set IN
a quick oven for five minutes, or until
the tops are nicely Drowned; they must
not stay too long or the ragout will be
dry.
Serve Immediately, setting the shells on
a folded napkin laid On china dish.
Scraps of fish can be used the same way
and there is no more delicate method oil
serving remnants of veal roast or outlets.
SUMMER GARDEN RAGoUT.
A ragout of fresh beef is very savory
when summer brings young corn, okra
and tomatoes in abundance.
Use three pounds of beef, the cut from
the butt of the sirioin is the best. Put it
into a pot with enough cold water to
cover and add a quart of peeled and sliced
tomatoes, corn cut and scraped from half
dozen ears, three chopped onions and a
pint and half of okra pods, sliced
round: add also two ounces OF butter,
season with salt and bit of red pepper
pod, and let the whole simmer gently
over a moderate fire for three or four
hours. The meat must be perfectly ten
der and the vegetables thick PURGE.
Serve with the beef in the centre and the
vegetables around it.
1t will be found upon trial that such
dainty dishes of wholesome food are apt
to tempt delicate appetite, an advantage
to be considered as well as their compar-
atively small cost and their snowy ap-
pearance as entrees.

the windows are draped with Victor a

Initiate our foreign neighbors as we
will, we do not need to be the ''oldest in
habitants' to remember quite other ways
of feeding than now prevail. 1t is not SO
long ago that lettuce, plain, was our only
salad.
Those of us of Yankee descent, brought
up in the country, remember well the
lettuce bed. 1t was sown early, broad
cast, and 'fthinned out'' for table use.
The head varieties with their bleached
and tender centers were unknown to us.
Our lettuce was bitter rather oftener than
not. But>in the absence of all those early
vegetables that are now furnished US from
the southern truck farms. it was well
come, when it appeared on the table still
dripping from its bath and eaten-tell it
not in Gaul-with vinegar and sugar.
Only plentiful sprinkling OF sugar
could atone for the sour and the bitter to
the youthful palate. The grind OF the
sugar, the bite OF the acid, we remember
it yet.

because they are courted and feted and
fiattered Till life hasn't a wrinkle any
where bigger than crumpled rose leaf
would make.
And then such coterie of young
women as surround her and will second
her. There are three women in the cabi-
net who are under thirty years old. and
one who isn't much over it. Mrs. Bissell
is the youngest married woman, being
about 81. She has superb health, talent
and what is quite comfort to woman
in Washington society-a good memory t.
In most ways Mrs. Bissell represents the
ideal qualifications for cabinet woman
aside from her lack of knowledge of Of
fetal Washington life. But she
seems to have settled down to
an ante-course in Washington life;
and by next seasons opening Mrs.
Bissell will be ready to face Washington
with not many tremors. She has every
thing in her favor. The first thing that
strikes one about Mrs. Bissell is the
strong vitality. When she enters room
there is an expression on every one's face
of either envy or pleasure at the sight of
such a strong, hearty looking woman.
If YOU didn't know who it was and that
she is thoroughly American you would
wonder from what Scotch hearth she had
come She looks as if she had vitality
sufficient for dozen women.
Then there is Mrs. Lamont, who is
about thirty and looks several years
younger than she is. Mrs. Lamont likes
nothing better than to gather around her
a group of girls and debutantes. And she
doesn't suffer by comparison in the least.
Her laugh is infectious, and the girl who
can withstand it hasn't come under Mrs.
Lamont's influence yet. She is just girl
with the rest of them. She isn't girlish
in the sense many women try to be when
the curtains of forty and fifty begin to
close around them. 1t is natural, and
there are people who declare Mrs. Lamont
will never grow old. The young girls who
are fond OF her can hardly realize that
three small Miss Lannon'S call her mother.
Like Mrs. Bissell, she enjoys good
health and has breezy way that is a
tonic to tired and nervous people. She
seems always good natured and can find
a very bright side to anything she turns
around In her hand. And Mrs. Hoke
Smith is only thirty. In love at fifteen,
engaged for five years, married at twenty
and now but thirty. Until very lately
Mrs. Smith retained the slender, svelte
figure for which she has been noted and
enyied among her companions. Mrs.
smith has always had more or less care on
her shoulders owing TO the long invalid
wears of her mother when she was her
constant companion. But she appears
very young in looks as we'll as tastes. The
fourth member of the cabinet set is Miss
Herbert, who, of course. is young
woman and would be called only girl il

lCopyright. 1892. by Frank Pope Humphrey.l
BALLATER, Scotland, May 1.-The queen
and prince consort first came to Balmorai
in 1s4S at the recommendation of their
physician, Sir James Clark.
The neighborhood of Balmoral is es-
teemed the driest aud healthiess ln
Scotland. 1t IS 900 feet above the sea
level. The air is pure and bracing. the
soil gra7elly. and there is less rain than
IN the West Highlands.
IL is a beautiful district whether in
spring when the birches are in tender
leaf and the broom bursting into yellow
bloom, or IN Summer when the hills are
pink with heather: or in autumn the
queens favorite season here, when there
is indIscribable glory upon hill and
valley, of golden birch, purpling heather
and brown bracken.
The castle stands upon ''haugh, or
open space, by the Dee, the hills receciDg
for background. Byron's dark Loeb
magyar" $500 feet high, closes the vista to
the south.
HOW PRINCE ALBERT CAME TO BUY.
Both the queen and prince were i'm
pressed with the beauty of Balmoral, and
above all with it's solitude and peace after
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1893-05-14

the rush Of court life at London and
Windsor.
in 1852 the prince bought the estate for
&S1 800 Besides Balmoral 1t now includes
Birkhail. Abergeldie held on lease, and
the great forest of Bullock Beie, bought
somewhat recently by the queen. 1t COM
prlses in all little over 40 600 acres.
On the first arrival OF the royal family
they drove first from Aberdeen, dis
lance of fifty miles. But soon a railroad
began to creep up the valley by degrees,
threatening destruction to their seclusion
and was at last stopped at Ballater, eight
miles distant, by act of parliament.
VIEWS FROM THE CASTLE.
There was an old castle on the estate.
IT proved quite inadequate, however, and
in 1863 the corner stone OF new house
was laid. In 1855 it was ready for partial
occupancy. When the queen and prince
entered it for the first time an old shoe
was thrown in after them for good luck,
IN accordance with an old Highland Gus
tom.
The castle is of light granite, and is in
the old Scotch baronial style of architec-
ture, with round tnrrets with extin-
guisher tops and crow-stepped gables.
Its great tower is zoe feet high. Upon il
is a clock which gives the time to the
neighborhood, and a Flagstaff from which
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1893-05-14

the royal standard floats when the
queen is there.
As you look at the castle from the orth
bank, its towers seem to rise from out g
mass Of forest tress. But 1t is really very
open about 1t, with pleasure grounds to
the west and north sioping to the Dee.
The Dee itself is bordered with fine large
trees, under which a broad path is laiC
out. So near is the castle to the stream
that from any part, If the windows be
open, the rush and whirl of its waters are
heard.
Looking from the drawing room win
doxs, the eve passes over flower beds and
terraces, over the Dee and forests beyond
on up TO the straight where hill over
caps hill to the Braes of Mar. This is the
view seen from the queen own sitting
room: one OF the loyeliest, the most rest
full my eyes ever looked upon.
A GIFT FROM PRINCE ALBERT.
Little wonder is that the queen loves
Balmoral best of all her residences. Its
winning beauty would explain that, even
aside from the fact that house and
grounds are the work of the prince con-
sort, formed in accordance with his taste,
and therefore doubly dear.
He left this property TO the queen in his
viii and but little change has taken place
in il since his death. Even when neces-
sary additions have been made, they have
been SO arranged as not to interiors with
the general plan.
The house was built at first for a resi-
dence of six weeks or so in the autumn
as hunting lodge, and as such it was
used until the princes death. 1t was a
busy place in those early days when the
family were there; each child had his OF
her favorite pursuit aside from the daily
lessons painting, sketching. photog-
raphy, gardening.
In the spring following the prince con-
sorts death the queen came for the first
time at that season, arriving on MAY day.

the middle of November.

nificant to serve either cold or warme
over. Yet have seen my ft-fingered
Felicie serve half a dozen people with a
delicate entree between the soup and meat
course from just such a remnant.
just here let me insist upon the fact
that Felicie always keeps her soup pot
handy so that she may command a cupful
OF clear broth at any time, such an essen
tial does she consider this to many of her
dishes. Among early impressions l have
that of huge pot sometimes bubbling
over the softly glowing Goals of charcoal,
sometimes hanging between three sticks
over fire outdoors, but always simmer
ing and emitting savory odors.
RAGoUTs IN scALLoP SHELLS.
When Felicie decides that the remnant
of chicken is to be served in ragout she
at once makes a thick white sauce and
this is her rule for it:
Melt a tablespoonful of butter and blend
1t thoroughly with one of sifted flour; stir
these together over the fire few moments
without allowing it to assume the slight
est tint of brown, if to be used with veal :,
poultry or fish. If the remnants are beef,
mutton, venison, etc., then this roux
must brown. Stir into this the LIQUID
stock, or if there is beef or chicken soup,
some OF that strained. Allow two gills OF
liquid to tins quantity of flour and butter;
it must be added luke warm and stirred
constantly that it may not lump, then set
where it will cook gently fifteen minutes.
Carefully pick che chicken from the
bones, rejecting every particle of skin
and sinew, but using all the brown as
well as white meat; cut into tiny bits,
squares if possible, and add any portions
of the liver, ETC., that you have.
Flavor the sauce with bit of anchoyy
paste the size of pea, and teaspoonful
OF lemon juice and mix with the chicken,
adding salt and pepper TO taste.
Brush the inside of some scaIlop shells,
one for each person, with olive oil; fill
these with the ragout mixture, which
must be hot, sprinkle the top with sifted

1t were not that her manners were any
thing but girlish.
With all these young women in the
official family it will be strange if the en-
tire youthful element in Washington
doesn't take the lead and run things on a
junior plan.
THE MATRoNLY ELEMENT.
Indeed it will be great four years for
them IL they make the most of the oppor-
tunity. Probably never before has the
young woman had such a chance. 1t has
always been accepted without question
that it was the fate OF presidents wives
to reach the White House too far along
IN years to enjoy to the full the sweets of
the position. So it has been with cabinet
ministers wives. They have mostly
been elderly women, or when a stray
young woman did appear in the coterie
she found herself almost alone.
This time it is the elderly woman who
finds herself in the working minority.
Mrs. Gresham, of course, can t be counted
on to figure with much Yivacity. The
Martin household will have a sort of a
movable head; sometimes one of the
young wives of the three sons and some
times maiden sister of the secretary of
agriculture, who is in middle life. That
leaves Mrs. Carlisle and Mrs. Olney to
represent the very matronly element.
Mrs. Carlisle never hesitates to announce
that she has been in politics for fifty
years.
MRS. LINDSEY OF KENTUCKY.
But the cabinet hasn't all the youth.
There are many new senator's wives and
some OF the younger congressmen's wives
who have not been here are going to fig
ure next winter.
The wife of Senator Lindsey, who sue
6oA - I'll H. 3. L
lucky, is a very young woman aud be-
side her tall, large husband looks even
slighter and more youthful than she
really is. Eleanor Holmes Lindsey is the
second wife of the senator. She does not
look day over q, and probably isn't.
Before she had been here week she had
captured the friendship and admiration
of everyone who had watched her or had
word with her. She isn't handsome
according to many authorities, but
there is something about her that is mex
plicable and makes people like to watch
