Time for the Hcartiest Meal.

A man OF science, who gives a So
ciety woman pepsin tablets at So call,
says that call. pepsin, money and
necessity for any Of them would be
saved IL wonderland men-would
lea-l to eat properly. He Is himself an
epicrre and eats rich viands, but he
know how these are prepared and can
prepare them himself on occasion, and
he selects the proper time to eat them
lie considers 1t nothing less than sui
cidal for the brain worker, for in
stance, to eat hearty lunch. People
who are much In the open air and who
exercise freely can eat about what
they please, so that they satisfy their
hunger at stated periods and are pune
.ual about 1t. But he thinks 1t Is all
but criminal for woman who has to
use hen brain and who must be Oh the
alert with vigorous mentality to
divert the blood from her brain, where
It Is most needed, to the stomach, by
setting 1t to work on q promiscuous lot
Of food. He is Of the opinion that the
brain worker should eat most heartily
after tie days work Is done. Break
fast may be moderately hearty, or
quite hearty, II taken an hour before
beginning work. Lunch, however,
should 10 exceedingly light, Just A little
70 sustain nature till dinner time, cup
of beef tea and cracker or two, fruit
Of some kind. or q cup Of cocoa.
Dinner what you please If properly
prepared.

SweetDreads.

Sweetbreads Mrs. Rorer's recipe) if
prepared in the following manner make
most acceptable dish for luncheon:
Wash carefully and boil a pait of
sweetbreads and throw them into
cold water to cool quickly. Pick them
apart, removing all the fiber. With a
silver knife chop them fine. Put one
gill of cream and half cup of white
bread crumbs over the fire and stir
until boiling. Take from the fire and
put into them one whole egg; add the
sweetbreads and half pint of mush-
rooms chopped fine, a teaspoon of
salt, and saltspoon of pepper. Turn
the mixture into flat pan to cool,
keeping it perfectly smooth and not
over one inch in thickness. When
perfectly cold with round biscuit
cutter stamp the mixture out into
rounds. Dip each in egg and then in
bread crumbs. Cut three solid toma-
toes into slices little larger than the
rounds Of sweetbread. Have ready
also rounds of toasted bread Put on
each slice of toast piece of tomato;
dust with salt and pepper; put on top
Of each a tiny bit Of butter. Run
into quick oven while you fry the
rounds of sweetbread. AS soon as
they are fried drain them on brown
paper. Put one tablespoonful of but
ter and one of -four into q saucepan;
mix and add half pint of milk; stir
constantly until boiling; add half a
teaspoonful of salt, a dash of pepper
and dozen mushrooms. Stand this
over hot water while you dish the
sweetbreads Arrange the toast with
tomato first, placing on top of each one
round Of the fried sweetbreads. Pour
over the cream sauce and serve as
quickly as possible.-Chicago Record.

Household Hints.

The best way to clean fine jewelry
is to brush it with gin and put in box
wood sawdust to dry.
If rubbed with fresh lemon or or
ange peels, knives and forks will be
thoroughly freed from the taste of
fish.
TO have custard pie of an even,
nice brown when baked, sprinkle a
little sugar over the top just before
putting it into the oven.
Two or three clean oyster shells
boiled in the teakettle once week
will prevent the formation or iron rust,
and all impurities WILDE incrusted on
the shells.
Never throw away orange peel. Save
it, and when dry keep in tin. Two or
three pieces thrown on fire will cause
his to burn up quickly and will also
emit slight but refreshing perfume.
Carpets and rugs can be as thorough
ly beaten spread on the grass as hung
over a line, and with much less dan
ger of injury. In either case they
should be beaten on the wrong side
| first.
The correct observation has been
made that, as rule, it is not the poor
Who practise small economies. If they
nad the will and the skill to make the
most of what they have, they would
soon rise from their low estate.
All things considered, q solution of
Ok gall and warm soft water, in the
proportion OF one pint of the former
to two gallons of the latter is the best
cleansing and refreshing agent for car
pets. If spots are obstinate use white
soap also.
An excellent plain salad is made of
hot sliced beets cooked for awhile in q
little water, vinegar and sugar. Make
q red sauce Of the water by thicken-
ing with cornstarch and add butter
and pour over the beets. 1t is good
hot or cold.
Do not throw away old preserving
jars which have lost their covers OF
whose edges have been broken. They
will come in handy for preserving
pickles Just cover the top with a
piece of paper and then tie string
around the paper to hold it.
If two pairs Of shoes are kept in
use together, wearing them alternate
ly, the shoes will give more service
and last longer than two pairs worn
one after the other. Shoes, like many
other things, become tired, and re-
quire an occasional rest to do good
work.
When you suspect what you are
cooking has been scorched because
you have neglected it for just one mo-
ment too long, lift the vessel holding
the food from the fire and stand il in
pan of water for few minutes. In
almost every case the scorched taste
will entirely disappear.

DRIVING GEESE III HOLLAND.

the same order Large, heavy birds
like geese could not possibly march
long distances unless their method and
order of march were carefully thought
out. That the average intelligence of
these birds IS very high is generally ac-
knowledged, but Is nowhere SO well
shown as when they are travelling Oh
foot. In the first place there is no
hurry one goes his own pace
but that pace is deliberate. They walk
in column, but the ranks are often ten
geese wide. No goose touches or jos.
ties his neighhor, and all the heads are
carried high, SO as to get the maximum
Of air. At regular Intervals on the
march the column halt and feed
spreading out in lines for this purpose
but falling in at proper signal from
the leaders. At Antwerp flock OF
1900 wild geese were seen to walk
along the quay, gently urged by some
Flemish gooseherds. They were halt
ed opposite to an English steamer
bound for Harwich. and then crossed
three abreast on plank with low can
vass sides Oh to the steamer. They
then walked along the deck. descend
ed steep sloping plank and marched
along the lower deck into an Enclosure,
where they remained during the cross
Ing. At Harwich they were driven up
the plank to the upper deck, off the ship
and into pens, where most of them
were killed for the market. This is
only n survival of the old system by
which the Norfolk geese were driven
up to London in thousands without los.
ing condition. 1t paid better before the
days Of railways, to let the geese trans
port themselves.
