One who keeps up with the fAds
nowadays must be wide awake. indeed.
The very newest fad is the collection
Of hotel bills of fare OF special occa-
sions. Managers Of local hotels have
been beset with requests for the ar
tistic menus Issued whenever unusual
functions are held. These requests
come not only from city people. but
by mail The managers. az far as pos
sible, comply with all such requests.
but 1t is simply impossible for all to
be supplied who ask. Holiday menus
were eagerly sought, and many visi-
tor to this city on that day left with
an artistic bill of fare tucked away
from sight. Some collectors have sew
eral thousands Of these pretty souve-
Mrs In their collections Most of the
special menus are very expensive. and
the managers are careful to estimate
the number required for their tables.
1t is not an unusual thing when an ex-
ira dinner Is given for the manager to
find that all OF his menu cards are
carried out Of the dining room before
all of the guests have eaten. As
rule, managers Of hotels are glad to
give their menus to strangers who ask
for them, as this Is one of the best
ways of advertising q hotel. and to
ask for menu is one Of the best ways
of showing your appreciation Of
good meal or the art that IL evidenced
In the engravings of the menu. Menus
vary in cost from the so cent a hun
dred to the very finest of engraved and
embossed special cards. Some of the
Philadelphia hotels have had menus
that have cost as much a. IS cents
each. When an association or club or
other organization gives 4 dinner at q
big hotel the cost Of the menus II dg-
ured aside from the other expenses.
In that case the hotel IL absolutely in
different to the amount that is appro-
priated for the purpose. As q rule,
when a special dinner or banquet =
given the menu or bill Of fare il really
a souvenir of the occasion. and is taken
home by the guest. It IL then that
the real art Of the card IL most appre-
ciated. Among women this menu fad
is most strongly shown, although some
men are addicted to 1t.

Bacon For Home Use.

When cutting up the rig. cut two
wide strips from the belly part. AS
these strips contain the most lean. they
nre better for bacon. says Prairie
Farmer. The back or thicker parts cut
into narrow strips and salt down for
side pork. Pack the hams and shout
ders into Il barrel with the bacon on
top. and for these make Il brine one
half as strong as that used for the side
pork, making IT. quite sweet with good
smolasses or brown sugar. A small
amount of saltppter-about an ounce to
"a hundred pounds Of meat-dissolved
and mixed With the brine is helpful.
In about eight days remove the bacon
pieces from the brine and smoke, let
ting the hams and shoulders remain In
the brine six weeks before smoking.
