Culinary Ideas.

If the crackers served with soups
and broths are lightly buttered and
then placed in the oven and brown
ed, they are much more appetizing.
If fowl is old and tough, it may
be made tender, says an eXperienced
cook, by wrapping it carefully in
double thickness of wrapping paper,
pinning it so it cannot come undOne,
and roasting it for a full hour. Then
take it out of the oven, remove the
paper and roaste until it is perfectly
tender, beating it and turning it
frequently.
CHICKEN CREAM SOUP.-Boil an
old fowl in cold water until tender;
add boiling water to make five pints.
Cut off the breast and mince very
fine; mix in and season. Pour boil
ing hot upon one pint of cream, and
four beaten yolks of eggs. Do not
boil again. Serve with crisp strips
of toast.
CHEESE OMELEr.-This is a most
delicious dish, but its excellence de-
dends to IA very large extent upon it
being served Immediately after
being cooked. Break three eggs
into bowl, beat them briskly, and
add while beating a seasoning of
salt and pepper, two teaspoonsful of
minced parsley and three table
spoonsful of grated cheese. When
these various ingredients have be-
come thoroughly Incorporated, pour
the mixture into an omelet pan, in
which has been melted some butter,
and fry in the usual mahner. Serve,
neatly folded, on very hot dish
overdone, or the Omelet will be
tough and dry.

The appetite of child is quite as
susceptible of education in both
right and a wrong direction as are
its mental or moral faculties, and
parents, in whose hands this educa-
ton mainly rests. should give the
subject careful consideration, since
upon it the future health and use
fumess of their children not a little
devolve. We should all be rulers of
our appetites instead of subject to
them, but whether this be SO or not
depends greatly upon early dietetic
training. Many loving mother, by
thOughtless indulgence of her child,
in season and out of season, in
dainties and tidbits that simply
serve to crafty the palate, is foster

There are inherited appetites and
tendencies, it is true, but even
these may be largely overcome by
careful early training in right ways
OF eating and drinking. 1t is pos

to use such food as is best for them
and to refrain from the eating of
things harmful, and it should be

The Afternoon Nan.

The frequency with which medi-
cal men are asked whether it is
harmful to indulge in the afternoon
nap" is not, perhaps, surprising, for
several reasons. Most persons have
had experience of the somnolence
which has followed the comfortable
ingestion of "a midday or evening
meal. The meal finished, arrange
yourself comfortably in an arm
chair; take up a newspaper, and
prepare to make the most of the
restful condition of mind and body.
Nature will soon begin to assert her
sway. In time the eyelids close, the
head begins to nod, the newspaper
falls from the hands and the symp-
toms of nap are complete. Whether
the "winks" be forty or one hun
dred in number, the result is the
samoa short, sound sleep.
Then comes the question-Is it
harmful thus to fall asleep after a
meal? By no means; for the very
obvious reason that the process is
merely a physiological one, and as
such, when it occurs, is quite natural.
When digestion is in progress, ma
ture has arranged that all the avail
able blood in the body shall be col
lected in and about the digestive
organs. Consequently the blood
supply to the brain falls to a low
ebD, and thus sleep is easily induced.
On the other hand, of course,
physiOlogically, it is wrong for brain
work to be attempted Immediately
after solid meal.

Place four ounces of coarsely-
chopped cheese into mortar with
three ounces of sifted breadcrumbs,
one ounce of grated ham, two ounces
of butter, tablespoonful of finely
minced onion, and a good seasoning
of cayenne, dry mustard and salt;
pound these ingredients to a smooth
paste; add sufficient beaten egg to
thoroughly moiSten; then make up
into tiny balls about the size of a
walnut; flatten these out slightly,
and dip in light, rich frying batter,
and drop into saucepan of boiling
lard. When colored a delicate
brown, drain the croquettes care
fully on blotting-paper, and pile
them up tastefully in high mound,
on folded table napkin on very

Small Items.

Fans must be either very small or
very large. No medium ground is
admissible.
Ermine is becoming reduced in
price, and is so very stylish too
Collarettes of this, with muffs to
match, are exceedingly becoming.
The magpie collars, that is black
and white, are still growing in popu-
larity. A black satin to remodle,
may be effectively trimmed in
white.
Red cloth is wonderfully fashion,
able for day gowns, and the red
boleros are introduced over plain
black bodices, trimmed with velvet
and lace, or form the entire bodice.
For out of door wear, dark blue cloth
jackets of the finest make chinchilla
or with bands of narrow astrakhan
The latest idea in Paris is to drape
the skirts very slightly on the hips
with two or three small folds. This
seems to indicate an inclination to
bring draped skirts into fashion
again, but as the same sort of thing
was attempted soon after the UNI
brella skirt came into fashion with
out much success, it is possible that
plain skirts will be worn for some
time to come.

Dish Washing.

Appetite and good health are
largely dependent upon the manner
in which our dishes are washed.
Unfortunately, few housekeepers
pay any attention to this depart
ment, and the consequence is that
the dishes often come in with a
greasy feeling about them, that will
spoil the most tempting menu.
Plenty Of hot water, so that a change
may be had when the water becomes
greasy, little ammonia, soap ac-
COrding to circumstances and plenty
of clean, fresh towels are essential
to bright dishes. They should first
be passed through a hot suds, and
then rinsed in clear hot water. A
mop should be used for small pitch
ers and other things into which
the hand cannot reach.
1t is often the simplest details of
kitchen labor that are the most
neglected. The hot water kettle, for
eXamplc-hOw many cooks pay any
attention to it! Stale water, sim
mered and with all vitality cooked
out, is its perennial portion, with an
occasional filling up and sudden
boiling as the need requires. If
every hOusekeeper who reads this
paragraph should go straight to her

Grace and Comfort.

1t has always been known that
grace of movement cannot be attain
ed without comfort of body, but we
are just now beginning to practice
this important truth. Fashion has
come to aid us and her latest edicts
are, a comfortable waist and a shoe
shat does not pinch. Dress reform
has done much, but that appeals
to the health, while fashion encour-
ages the vanity of her subjects;
therefore we may be sure that her
mandates will be obeyed. Happily
we will now see II decrease in the
number Of women with swinging
bodies or hands as they walk down
the street, for comfortable waist
measure is a great aid to a graceful
carriage. The almost imperceptible
limp, caused by the light shoe, will
be thing Of the past now, and our
women will be graceful as well as
beautiful.

water from issuing from it. The
kettle needs the same frequent and
thorough care that any utensil
needs. Into such, having it already
warm, put fresh filtered water, boil
rapidly, and use at once, and one of
the large aids to palatable food is
secured.
