A PRIME FISH cHOwDER.
Directions for Preparing n Delicious
Dish which Dates Back to
Colonial Times.

And now for that promised fish chow.
der. This is a genuine New England
dish. 1t dates back to the earliest CO.
lonial times. 1t is said to have ap.
peared on the tables at Plymouth on
the very first Thanksgiving day that
was kept as a holiday, when the first
harvest was gathered. Perhaps we
shall have an added respect for the dish
knowing that It is historic.
You will please observe the following
proportions in preparing your ingre.
dients:.
To every pound of fish-cod or haG.
dock is the best for the purpose-use
one-inch cube of salt pork half an
onion, two potatoes, speck of pepper,
one tablespoonful Of -four, one table
spoonful of butter, one cupful of milk
and two crackers.
See that the fish is carefully cleaned
and cut into pieces after the bone IS
removed. You may bone the fish your
self, or the marketman will do it for
you. 1t will save you trouble IL YOU
have it done. Cook the bones of the
fish and the head in boiling water for
half an hour, then strain the water and
save 1t. Cut the salt pork and the onion
into dice and fry until they are a light
brown. In the meantime peel and slice
the potatoes and let them scald for FIVE
minutes; pour off the water and add to
the scalded potatoes the water in which
the bones were boiled, and the pork fat,
which has been strained TO remove the
pieces of onion and the solid bits Of
pork. Put this over the fire in stew
pan, and when it Is boiling add the Asa
and simmer ten minutes, or until The
potatoes are tender; last of all, add the
pepper, butter, milk and crackers.
am sure if any Of you try this recipe
you will find that the chowder is Ie-
licious, even if you 60 not care much
about the ordinary fish chowder. But
you see that this is an extraordinary
one.-Sallie Joy White, in Woman's
Home Companion.

conductor as he entered the smoking
ear of suburban train. ...
The timid little man started and was
preparing to apologize for owning the
cause Of the trouble when the conductor
again yelled almost in the same breath,
"Put it down''
The timid little man grasped the
dripping umbrella, which he had
spread in order to allow it the quicker
to dry, and ss he closed it with nervous
haste the conductor continued: 49,.
'''Don't you know enough not to open
an umbrella in house-in car, I
mean? Do you want to hoodoo this
train? Well, it's mighty lucky you
didn't run across conductor that was
superstitious with that umbrella, or he
might have put you off,"

ping umbrella under the seat, watched
Che conductor punch his ticket, replaced

to look for it in the morning and
