BREAD MONEY.
The almost unprecedented
Jdrouth of the past season scorched,
-rithered and dried the crops in
many sections of our country.
Tbe class of our people who have
always relied upon the corn crop
for sustenance are now almost
without bread for their families
and indications point to their ac-
al want during the coming win

WAYS TO COOK FISH

There is fish and fish. OF all food sub
stances it most recalls the famous little
girl with the curl in her forehead-"when
good it is very good indeed, when 1t is bad
it is horrid."
q Here is an epicure's proverb: "A perfect
fish swims thrice in a day-frst In water,
second in oil and last of all in brandy"
This proverb, like most others, is the eX-
perience of many men compressed into the
wit of one. The quicker the transit from
the water to the fire, the better the result
In cooking, scant nothing-ieast or all hre
and fat.
OIL is excellent for frying very delicate
fish, but in the main sweet lard answers
every purpose. Deep frying need not be
waste. The same fat may be used over
and over. with a very little care, Never
let it scorch-this is cardinal Pour II
carefully off the sediment after using, and
always wash out the crock in which 1t is
kept between fryings. If it grows discoi-
ored and muddy, fry few slices OF raw

fried this way than broiled. They must be
neatly trimmed, and freed as far as pos

either baked or broiled, can be made very
tempting.

In a third corner a couch was put-a
combination of a couple of old sofas whose
ends were cut off so that with a clever
adjustment of the angles they fitted snugly
into the wall. The surface of the couch
was padded into plumpness by the addi-
chintZ cover. The cushions, handsome
washable ones, were contributed by the
sisters. A narrow shelf around the top
of the couch held small pictures in frames
and some old-fas ashioned china plates deco
rated handsomely and priced by Dolly for
their high art qualities. Souvenir cups and
saucers and a tiny tea set were arranged
on a tabouret conveniently near the couch

will fall to best advantage on the face.
The floor, covered with mating, was
scftened here and there by pretty and
