THE GENUINE IRISH STEW.
How to Make 1t Out of Food Sometimes

How to Make 1t Out of Food Sometimes
Thrown Away.
We are not apt to regard the Irish
| peasantry as either thrifty or a pat
tern in any matters Of cookery. yet
The canny Scotch are no more Sc
we're economists than the Irish of
the northern country. The genuine
Irish stew is a dish that deserves
every praise. tits as great a success
in its way as a Scotch broth of NUT,
ton, and it is culinary lesson in the
use of what people generally throw
away
To make this dish the peasant Sc
cures what scraps of meat and bones
he can get for few cents. The pur-
chase in chiefly bone, and the meat
is either beef or mutton, or it may
be both.
The bone and meat are separated
and the fat is removed. The best
way to make the brotA is to throw
the meat in one kettle and the bones
in another and cover them both
with cold water.
After the contents of the two ket-
ties have simmered very slowly for
an hour salt is added. The cook
now gathers any sound vegetable
tops-the green tops of celery, the
green leaves outside the cabbage,
which in less thrifty parts of the
land are the perquisite of the pig
These are chopped together and add
ed to the kettle containing the bones
and simmered with them for the
next hour. For every two quarts of
the stew two small onions cut in
slices are added. When they have
simmered half an hour, six small
potatoes, cut in quarters, are put in.
When the potatoes have cooked
half an hour, strain the broth off
the bones and chopped vegetables,
pressing the vegetables hard to ex-
tract all the pulp and flavor from
them. Thicker the strained broth
with a heaping tablespoonful of flour
mixed with large tablespoonful of
butter. If mutton is used, the broth
must be carefully skinned before
adding the thickening. Let the
thickening cooks in the strained
broth for ten minutes, stirring it
carefully; then pOur it in the kettle
of meat, onions and potatoes. Let
the stew simmer moment or two,
stirring it constantly. Taste it to
see if it needs.m more salt add pepper
and serve at once.
1t is largely pot of luck, depend
ing upon the vegetables at hand
and the amount of meat it contains,
but it is nutritious, even when it is
made largely of vegetables and it
is always excellent

Little Delaware.

Delaware was the first state admit

which Randolph of Roanoke referred
contemptuously as having two counties

machinery. The senate of its legisla-

Delaware is one of the states which
has no lieutenant governor, and there
fore, from out of these nine members,
one is chosen as presiding officer, and
the other eight are the lawmaking
body. The state is divided into three
counties-New Castle, which includes
the city OF Wilmington: Kent, which
includes the capital city of Dover, and
Sussex, the rustic southern county.
New Castle has several thousand
more voters than Kent and Sussex
combined, but the basis of represen-
tation in the Dover senate is the same
