THE BEST MAN.

Uuder the title "When Maids Mar
ried," Frederick Boyd Stevenson in the
January Woman's Home Companion,
trace s the origin of some of our mar
riege customs back to the days OF primi-
tive man.
While we smile at the wife-stealiDg
propeosityssof the savage or half-savage
nations, we cherish as our dearest form
a custom that had its direct origin in
this very self-same practice The "best
man." who plays so important part
in regulated marriages. that nowadays
have any pretense at all to the fashion,
able, once upon time in Sweden occu-
pied position that was useful ss well
as ornamental. In The daya the Swe-
den groom found it desirable, in fact,
to have several "oest men" to
defend him from the assaults of
rivals and prevent them from carry
ing away his bride. The Scandinavian
warrior of ancient times was far too
lofty in his ideas to condescend to
plead for naiden's hand. So he pa
tiently waited until some other man
who was more gallant had obtained the
fair ones consent. Then when all the
details had been nicely arranged the
proud warrior, with body of we'll
trained retainers, dashed down on the
wedding party, and, if strong enough,
carried away the bride. The "best
man. land it was very essential that
thew should be the best men in those
davs). therefore, became necessary fix
tures TO the marriage ceremony, and
they were so well esteemed that their
popularity became so permanent that
when the reason for ihsir existence
was removed they were still retained.
Hence, the custom is preserved In the
"hass man" of to-day.

SELECTION OF MEAT.
Cuts OF Beef That Are Known as
Prime and Otherwise, and Their
Peculiar Values.

The prime steer used for beef pur-
poses weighs about 700 pounds dressed.
OF this amount there are in the carcass
two sets of first quality ribs. consist
ing of seven ribs in each set and weigh
ing about 20 pounds per set There are
also two loins weighing about 40
pounds each. There is, on an average.
IT'S pounds of choice beef in each we'll
regulated steer. but some butchers
have been known to sell porterhouse
from carcass after everything was
gone but the horns. The remainder of
the beef. after the choicest has been cut
away, is called the ''misnomer," from
the fact that it sells at lower price.
A large percentage of the most nutri-
tious meat is found in the coarser cuts,
but nearly everyone demants part of
the rs pounds, which is false idea of
domestic economy as well as judgment.
Practical experience has shown that
the utilization of the chucks. the best
part of the round. the chump. flank, the
plate, and brisket gives the best re-
suits and is conducive of better health
than the higher-priced meats. Such
parts need more attention while cook
ing, however. yet the many tempting
dishes that may be made from them
more than repay for all extra trouble.
The average housewife may not know
it, but nevertheless it is a fact that
butchers who are daily and hourly
handling all kinds of cuts of beef al
most invaria bly, choose for their own
consumption flank steak. They say it
is more savory and just as tender as
the tenderloin which cut the butcher
seldom eats. The flank steak is stu
ated between the inside and outside
layers of the creamy-colored fat in the
flank. and when taken from well-fed
Stock is excellent. 1t costs at the mar
ket but half as much as porterhouse or
sirloin.
An old butcher once told me that the
best piece of meat in the bullock for
making a dish of boiled beef is the
close-grained top piece over the shout
der blade.
Meat adhering to the ribs makes
much more satisfactory steak than the
so-called sirloin and costs but little.
This piece may be larded and served as
is filet de bouef. 1t is also quite accept
able as Mignon steak - Chicago Inter

THE DUTCH HOUSEWIFE.
Her Love of Home, Says an English
Writer, Comes Very Near Akin
to Worship.

The Dutch woman Is before and above
all things a housewife. Indeed. her
love of home comes very near akin 20
worship, and the greatest compliments
that can be paid TO her is to praise the
neatness and sweetness of the house
that is her kingdom. She is famous all
the world over for her remarkable
cleanliness, and even in the very poor
quarters of the cities, where the houses
are small and crowded together. the
windows are daintily decked with cur
tains of spotless white. the rooms we'll
swept and tidy, the humble furniture
carefully busted and polished. This de-
sire for cleanliness, in fact, almost
amounts to a craze, and housewives
and servants alike evince strong par
TALLY for scrubbing. cleaning and
washing Even in weil-to-do families
a domestic training is considered nat
ural and necessary adjunct TO the
daughters educa ton. and each has cer~
tain household duties apportiOned TO
her. She is likewise taught to make her
own dresses, to knit her own stockings,
and to keep her wardrobe in repair
Nor does She shirk these duties as it is
to be feared so many of her English sis
tiers QOs the =
ried out faithfully, cheerfully. and
a matter of course, and ii Is due 10 this
excellent training in her girlhood that
the Dutch woman makes so model a
housewife We might go further and
say that it is through this training
that the Dutch girl has earned the rep
utation of being free and light of
heart. and a stranger TO the feeling OF
