Palatable Tough Chicken.

never be roasted. Alice Winston, ia an
exchange gives some good recipes for
making palatable dishes ofan old, tough
chicken and chief among them are the
follOwing
Anyone can take tough old chicken
and make it into. delicious .croqnettes or
hash or salad. After it is picked, put
it on to boil with q little salt in the
water. When it is done tear all the
flesh from the bones and return the
bones to the water, as that will make
excellent stock for soup. Grind up all
the meat in sausage mill. II you wish
to make crOQuettes add one.ihird as
much stale light bread as you have
chicken; put on the stove in little
saucepan pint Of sweet milk, a Glove
of garlic, a teaspoonful of salt, another
OF mustard, heaping tablespoonful of
butter and pinch Of grateu nutmeg.
Beat up two eggs, whites and yellows
separately; mix them, and as the milk
boils stir in rapidly, lest they cook be-
fore being thoroughly beaten in. Let
all cook together ten minutes and pour
over the crumbled bread and chicken
and work in with the hands. Make the
crcqlettes up in pretty, little oblong
shapes and cook in a heated pan,
creased with butler. When Drowned on
one side turn over with a batter cake
turner and brown the other side; watch
carefully, as they cook quickly and are
apt to burn. When done put in a fat
dish and lay sprigs of parsley around
the edge.
For chicken salad you add nothing to
the fowl after it is run through the sau
sage mill; it is past fashion putting in
chopped pickles or cabbage. Make a
salad dressing by any favorite recipe,
and pour over your dish of chicken.
The same dressing you use over slaw
and potato salad will do, unltss yon pre-
fer mayOnaise sauce. The men in your
family will think you are fine house
keeper with great deal of style, if you
serve up an aged veteran as salad every
now and then.
Another way of using tough chicken
is to chop it up with sharp meat
chopper and make it into that Virginia
dish-chicken pie. After chopping up
the raw chicken put it on two or three
hours according to its longevity be-
fore dinner, in a stewpan with water
enough to almost cover it and a little
salt. Cook slowly, stirring often.
When it is getting tender add teacup
of sweet milk, with teaspoon of -four
dissolved in If. When the chicken is
done stir in a generous tablespoonful of
butter, two if you can spare it. Have
ready pudding dish lined with nice
pastry; pour the stewed chicken and
cover with pastry on top, pinching the
edges down with fork put in the stove
to bake, which will take half an hour.
The bones left over from all these
ways of cooking old fowls will make
nice soup the next day. You can either
have white soup by adding sweet milk,
a white potato, turnip and a small
onion chopped up and little celery
seed, or you can have tomato soup by
putting can of tomatoes and a small

THE NEW SEALING GROUNDS

Some extremely interesting and
important news has reached London
with reference to the doings of the
three Dundee whaling vessels which
sailed in the late summer of last year
for the Antarctic Ocean, and which
are now on their return Journey.
They have, so far as the immediate
object of the expedition was concern
ed, met with failure, but a failure
which those who are responsible for
the fitting out of the expedition can
afford to bear with equanimity in
view of the fact that the vessels came
upon an enormous number of the true
fur-seal, and that one vessel alone is
reported to have captured no less
than sixty thousand of these valuable
animals. The Importance of this
discovery may be gagged by the pro-
ceedings before the International
Arbitration Tribunal which is now
sitting in Paris to settle various
questions relating to the future OF
the fur-seal in Behring Sea, and the
keenness with which the British and
American representatives are fighting
over the future of this most important
industry. The Dundee vessels have
left the Falkland Islands on their way
home, and if their cargoes should
justify the reports which are in cir.
culation, the discovery of this new
sealing ground would prove matte
of the very greatest importance. Al
attempt is to be made to preserve The
secret of the exact locality, but it il
very doubtful if the attempt will b,
successful; and in any event it can
not be long before the Antarctic Sea-
will be swarming with vessels anxious
to share in the rich harvest Of thi
hitherto undisturbed sealing ground

BISHOP WILLIS ON POLITICS
Royalist Views of ''Alfred by Divine
Permission"

The political situation remains out
wardly unchanged since urlast issue,
and will so remain until the President
of the United States takes action on
Commissioner Blount's report. That
the Commissioner has made search
ing investigation whether the Provis-
ional Government was established
with or without the aid of the United
States forces there is little doubt.
By this time his report is probably in
the hands of the President. Mean
while the Queen and the native peo-
pie await with calmness and patience
the decision of the Government OF
the United States, confident that il
on the evidence it shall be found that
a great wrong has been done, that
wrong will be redressed. Notwith-
standing much to cause Indignation
and irritation among the people on
the part of those in power, there has
been no disturbance in any part OF
the Kingdom. No better test of their
fitness for self-government could have
been applied to a people than that
which the Hawaiians have stood for
the last FIVE months. Whatever dan
ger there has been to life and proper
ty has geen from the foreign soldiers
of the Provisional Army firing their
rifles under the influence of liquor or
imaginary fears.-Dioeesaa Magazine.

have, or the common glass windows
will do. On the discovery OF a tire
in the building, simply close all win
dows, if they be not closed already,
and start up the gas, which is made
by the action of sulphuric acid on
carbonate of lime. 1t goes to every
room in the building and, being
heavier than the air falls to the
floor, completely filling the room
and making it impossible for fire
to burn. AS a result, instead Iof
having the goods damaged or en-
tirely ruined by water, as is inva-
riably the case now, there would not
be even an odor save that of little
smoke. Its cheapness commends it
to every property owner and | be-
lieve the day is coming when this
method of extinguishing fires will be
in general use.
If it is so easy to use in buildings,
how much more so is it on ship
board. If "a fire is discovered smoul-
dering in the hold of a vessel laden
with cotton, coal or whatever it
may be, all that needs be done is
20 close the matches and turn on the
gas. The fire cannot help being ex-
tinguished.
Perhaps some of the sufferers in
the recent fire in your village may
find in this latter method a means
of preventing like disaster in the
future. 1t costs but little and is
worthy trial.

A ROOSTER THAT COULD SWIM.

Who has ever heard of chicken
that could swim, that preferred
swimming to walking? There are
some seeming contradictions in the
world of nature; for example, the
cat that shrinks from wetting even
her velvety soles is driven to distrac.
ton by the smell of fish, for very
love of it. And a great scrawny
rooster, that never should be so
much as seen taking a bath except
in nice, dry, dusty place in the
road or ash-heap, deliberately walk
ing into pond of water and swim
ming across it is queer sight in
deed.
Yet that is what anybody NAV
have seen last summer at the mill
pond on little stream called Baker
Brook, which flows into the river St.
John just beyond the border of
Maine, in Canada.
He was a big fellow, digni6ed and
important from the top of his fam
ing comb to the tips of the stiff feath
ers that grew at right angles to his
feet, like wings, or 'pantaloons. 4"
He had always taken his bath in the
dust heap, until he grew old enough
to lead his charge of hens far away
from home, about the distant fields,
even beyond the brook, where ali
day long they nibbled blades of ten
der grass and chased the grasshop-
pers. But once around the pond and
across, the brook, the most direct
course back to the roost Law in a
line across the mill pond, and how
often he and his family were caught
by the darkness on that side of the
stream, and just how the thing was
managed at first, no one will ever
know. But one evening the men
who were working near the mill saw
a flock of hens and a rooster on the
wrong side of the brook, looking
wisttully toward the other side and
home. One by one the hens, taking
a good start off the high bank, flew
across, leaving the rooster alone.
But only for moment, for instant
ly he walked to the waters edge,
waded in without the least hesita-
ton, and struck out for the other
shore. He sat up high, we'll out of
the water, like duck, and as it was
only about sixty feet wide there, he
was across in a jitfy. Then shaking
his feathers clear of the moisture, he
ran away after the hens as fast as
his long legs could carry him.
This remarkable occurrence was
witnessed several times; as often as
the chickens, tempted by the more
remote, richer hunting-grounds,
wandered in that direction.
