TO COOK MUTTON AND LAMB.
Follow These Directions and the
Very Best Results VIII BE
Sure to Follow.

The flesh of mutton should be
bright red color, the fat firm and
white. Select for boiling a leg or
shoulder; for roasting or baking, a
loin or saddle; for broiling, the rack
cut into French chops; loin chops may
also be used; for stewing, the neck or
upper part of the rack, and for broth
or soup, the neck and feet, or head.
To boil leg of mutton, wipe it care
fully with a damp cloth. Dust piece
of cheesecloth thickly with -four, roll
the leg in it, tie, place it in a kettle
Ct boiling water and boil rapidly for
five minutes. Then push the kettle
On the back part of the stove, where
the water will be kept at tempera-
ture of 200 degrees Fahrenheit, cook
ing 20 minutes to each pound. When
done remove the cloth, dish the NUT
ton and serve with it caper sauce
Lamb, like mutton, should be
bright red color, with white fat; IL
is best when two months old. While
mutton is much better if hung. lamb
should be used within three days after
killing. The better way of cooking is
to roast or bake It, and the forequar-
ter is the choice portion. Wipe it
with damp towel, place it in baking,
pan dust it lightly with pepper. Put
a cupful of water, with teaspoonful
of salt dissolved, in the bottom of the
pan, dust it lightly with pepper. Put
quick oven. In a few moments the
water will have evaporated and the
bottom of the pan will be covered
with dripping. Basic with this every
ten minutes, baking Is minutes to each
pound, keeping the oven medium hot
from beginning to end. Serve with it
mince sauce.-Ladies' Home journal

Many a woman will take infinite

which should be sailed at first and

should be dressed for serving. and the
difference in dressing them when
young and old. Among housekeepers
there are more good pie-makers than
bread-makers; twenty who make Dret-

rocking meats, and fifty who make

soup-rnaking. Donot, because youhave

not some intimate connection between

Between the absence of temptation

81 have long felt that the social
ideals governing our Christian families
are too much like those of the fash
ionable world. Perhaps we Christians
in our eating habits are as disobedient
to the laws of nature revealed by sci
ance as we are to the laws of the Spirit
revealed in Gods word. Surely it is
a contradiction in terms for a Chris
tan to poison the body which God gave
| him for service, to be a gross eater
when even the outside of the body is to
be washed with pure water as the
temple of the Holy Ghost.

In 1898 he landed with Borchgrevink

A SOUTH POLE HUNT

Way to Antarctic Seas.
Proposed Route of the Expedition
Explorers Have an Equipment
That Is Superior to Any Used
Heretofore.

Barely a year has elapsed since
Belgian expedition under the command
Of Capt. de Gerlache left Antwerp for
south polar seas, with the intention
Of landing at Cape Adare and proceed
Ing southwark on the ice-cap of the
great southern continent. A new ex-
petition is about to leave England,
under the leadership of Mr.. Carsten
Egeberg Borchgrevink, who is cele-
brated as having been the first man
to set foot on that portion of antarctic
land first discovered by Sir James Ross
in 1871, and named by him Victoria
land. Notwithstanding that Borch-
grevink is following so closely in the
wake of the Belgians, there will be-
much valuable work for him to per-
form, and science will be the gamer
when the results of the two eXpedi-
tions are given to the world. Borch-
grevink's main object is not so much
to make a record south as to institute
scientific investigations on sea and on
land, discover, if possible, the south
magnetic pole, and, generally, pave the
way for future expeditions. Since re-
turning to England and Norway from
his first venture southwark in 1895,
Borchgrevink has endeavored to rouse
public interest and float the expedition
which is now an accomplished fact,
thanks to the liberality of Sir George
Newnes, who placed over 100000 at
his disposal.
The vessel that has been secured Is

1T IS A DISGRACE.
Evidence AccumuIates Against the
Army ''Canteen" ms Gov
eminent Ward.

Evidence accumulates to show that
the army 'canteen" is a disgrace to
our military establishment and a
source of crime and decentralization
among our soldiers wherever it Is es
tablished. The very idea of running
these beer saloons" under govern
ment auspices, with soldiers acting
in the capacity of bar tenders, is re-
pugnant to the enlightened conscious
ness of the American people, and the
system should not be tolerated any
longer. The argument that the sol
diers will have their beer, anyway, and
therefore it is better that it should be
dispensed to them through an institu-
ton under military control where eX-
cesses may be guarded against is weak
and foolish, III cannot be admitted
that bees IS a necessity for anyone,
and there is no excuse for the govern
ment entering upon the beer business
and thus giving it's sanction to habit
which leads to so much cri15c AID suf-
fering. The inevitable tendencies of
camp life under the most favora bic
conditions are to weaken the moral
fiber and lower the standards of moral
conduct, and it is shameful thing
that this drift toward evil should be
helped along by the institution of gov
eminent grog shops. 1t will be a
greater victory for the American pcs
pie than the acquisition of any island
of the sea if this ''Ganteen" abomina
ton can be now and forever sup
pressed.-Christian Work.

Origin of Bismnrck's Mime.

countrymen. On one occasion Count
Herbert, his eldest son. gave the fol-

and it has been always believed in the

a Mark existed on the Biese, the COM
mander of which, according to the

his descendants altered the name to

Revival" as caption for the following
seems like cutting sarcasm:
cat present there is no rapid rise such
as has taken place previously. Neither
has the current expansion in business
been marked by any advance outside of
iron and steel and the minor metals, cop
per, tin and lead. Instead, last week
cotton fell an eighth, and conflicting
reports all make the crop large, though
estimates vary by ], ooo, 900 bales. Wool
remains low, although sales have begun
to increase; but the prediction made last
January in the Manufacture" that
600. 600, 900 pounds of wool would be
needed by American mills has proved
unfounded. Both cotton and wooden
goods are low and the demand is disap-
pointing. For cotton goods exports offer
the only adequate relief.
Food is also falling in price. Both
wheat and corn lost cents bushel last
week and are altogether likely to go
lower before going higher, the price
being maintained by large exports and
low visible supplies"
