SWEET DESSERTS.

BY Parker Quincy Adams, Copyright 1902.
In no direction has cookery advanced
more rapidly than in the preparation of
sweet dishes for desserts. Under .Ae
general head of souff1es, there are al
most innumerable dishes, and even sweet
omelets are now recognized as worthy
of attention.
A delicate combination properly de-
scribed as souff1e float, is made as fol-
lows: Beat the whites Of eggs until very
stiff, adding then one-half teaspoon of
sifted powdered sugar for each egg. Heap
these beaten and sWeetened whites into
small flat-boLtomed cups and stand in a
covered steamer over boiling water long
enough to cook them. When done, turn
from the cups gently, scoop out one tea
spoon from the top of each white mound,
fill with rich custard made from the
yolks of eggs and pour more custard
around the base. Whites cooked in this
way do not fall, so this dessert is pc
culiarly fitted for serving cold. I prefer
an orange f1avoring for the Gus ard.
Here is anotner DAINTY but simple sweet
souff1e: Melt two tablespoons of butter
in a double boiler, add two tablespoons
of flour and blend well. Now add one
cupful of milk and stir until the mixture
thickens. Have ready the yolks of four
eggs and tour tablespoons Of sugar beat
en- thick until light; add this 10 the mix
rind from an orange and one-half salt
spoonful of salt. Cook ten minutes, or
until the yolks have had time to thicken.
Stand away to cool one-half hour before
serving, add the whites of the eggs, beat
en- very stiff, fill into a buttered baking
dish and bake in a moderately hot oven.
Serve witt a pudding sauce favored with
orange. A lemon dessert may be made
in the same way as the orange by sub
stituting that fruit.
To make a chocolate souff1e, melt one
tablespoon of buller in a double boiler
cup Of milk and One-half cup Of grated
chocolate (melted over steam or on the
back part of the stove), and stir until
smooth and thick. Now add the yolks
of four eggs and one-half cup OF sugar,
beaten together until very Hight; cook
until the yolks have had time to thicken,
then stand away to cool. Half an hour
before serving add the whites of five
eggs, beaten until very stiff and dry.
f1ll into buttered baking dish and bake.
If you use thin granite ware or tin pans
to take in, they should be set IN ves-
sci Of boiling water. the water reaching
fully half way up the sides of the pan.
If you use a thick. heavy baking dish,
it will not admit of this treatment
A macaroon dish may be made the
same as the chocolate by adding one
quarter of a round Of grated macaroons
instead of the chocolate just before add
ing the beaten whites.
Prunes or any dry cooked fruit. or the
strained pulp of any juicy cooked fruit
may be used in preparing these dishes.

Nine Blauvelt is by no means a stranger
to St. Paul peopleI IN fact she has ap
peared here at frequent intervals ever
since she came into prominence as a sim

her last local appearance, however, she
has enjoyed. some of her most notable
triumphs and her art has ripened and
broadened. Last spring she took part
in two memorial services for Queen Vic

Halle orchestra, directed by Hans Rich

When the curtain went down and the
company was dressing, the boy looked
for the girl and could not find her The
manager found that she was the only
one who was missing. The bus was
waiting outside. The curses of the man
22ger and his wife, the star, filled the
dingy little stage.
I'll fine that girl $40 for this" said
You'd better fine Rawlin, too" said
his wife. Hes gone
The company climbed into the bus and
was driven to the station. The train
pulled in. They began to get aboard.
l he manager said something to the sta
ton agent about having two missing
members of his company Join him at the
next town, and something to he com
pany about heavy fines for hardness.
The conductor waved his nand the en-
gineer put his hand on the throttle.
Slowly, ponderously the train began to

Then there was a swish of skirts on
the platform, cry of jump on quick

was the reason that made them late.
Then he said to the girl, who was
crying softly:

The girl stirred uneasily on her pill

stitched glove and sat up to look out of

LENT CLOSE AT HAND
ANNUAL FORTY-DAY ECLIPSE, OF
SOCIAL GAIETY BEGINS
TOMORROW
REST AND REGENERATION
Days of AbStemiOusness Will BE Ap-
preciated by Those Inclined to
EmbOnpOint-AH Ready for
Federation Breakfast.

Lent which begins tomorrow, will put
q period to the social history of the sea-
son 1901-1902. Originally, these forty days
Were days of fasting and prayer,
sackcloth and ashes. In these modern
times, however, they have come to be
regarded as forty convenient days for
looking after spring and summer ward
robes; for repairing the wear and tear
that the demands of the season have
made upon the complexion; for visiting
more summer lands and storing up
strength for the summer campaigns. So
ciety may not regard Lent is a religious
light but it does admit the wisdom Of
putting aside forty days in the year for
rest and recuperation. And even for the
society woman who is not a church
woman these forty days mean a period
of abstemiOusness-par if she is
inclined to embonpoint. For this latter
afi1ictiOn st. Paul women seem appar-
emily to have come to one conclusion, and
that is that nothing is so eficacious for
warding off corpulency as going with
out ones breakfast. A number of women
are practicing this bit of self-denial, and
all claim that they feel the better for it.
Il drink a cup of black coffee in the
morning" said one woman the other day
after she had lamented the possession of
much too, too solid flesh" but l do
not eat anything, not even fruit, until
o'clcck, when 1 have luncheon. I shall
keep this up during Lent, and 1 trust
that by that time l shall have lost many
superf1Uous pounds"
In view of the fact that the annual
breakfast of the Minnesota Federation
of Women's clubs is to be held tomor-
row, it would seem as if Lent were to
be ushered in rather gayly for Minnesota
women, but the general protest made by
clUbWomen, who are church women, will
surely prevent the establishment of any
precedent for holding the midwinter
meeting of the federated clubs in Lent.
1t is understood that Mrs G. A. Dibble,
Of st. Paul, who was asked to introduce
the newly elected president, Mrs. La
Penotiere, at the breakfast, declined to
do so because she is a strict church
woman. Mrs. c. P. Noyes, of the New
Century club, was chosen to act in her
place, but Mrs Noyes was called out of
town, SO the pleasant task has fallen to
Mrs. I. 7. Smith, also a st. Paul
woman,

APPETI1ING DISHES.

Corned beef is sometimes very good,
though it is much oftener not so good.
The only sure way OF having the kind Of
corned beef that is desirable is to pick
out the pieces Of meat and have it corn
ed. In cooking, it must first be put into
cold water and allowed to come slowly
to the boil, then simmered till tender.
Meat that is boiled rapidly is bound to
be tough. Having it correctly cooked,
there are several good mixed dishes that
may be made from 1t.
For one, put layer of sliced potato
into a baking dish, add a layer of sliced
onion and season with salt and pepper,
vary .ng the amount of salt with ell Que
reference to the saltiness of the beef,
layer Of which, sliced, should be added.
Put in more potatoes, more onions and
more of the meat, sprinkling a little i1o,r
over each layer of the beef. When the
dish is full add some dots of butter pour
in boiling water and bake.
Another ay to vary corned beef, plain,
is 10 cook together two tabl espoonflls
Of butter, three tablespoonfuls flour and
season with cayenne, salt and the Juice
OF one-half lemon. Heat one scaut r int
Of MIX, to which has been added a bit
of onion and a sprig of parsley When
scai4.ng remove the onion and fiour, ana
STR the milk into the butter and -Four

Creatore himself would have smiled
could he have been present at the an

Mozart hall by the Mozart club and seen
the caricature of himself. One of the
best features Of last evenings entertain

pieces, directed by Iudicrous exaggeration

Italian band. The impersonater, Charles
Eue, very short man, dressed in a coat
with tails which nearly reached the floor
a collar that enveloped his neck like a.
board fence and possessed Of arms fully
six feet long, literally reached over and
threatened to entirely wipe off the earth
the band closely huddled under his vIo-
lently gesticulating arms. While Mr.. Eue
in no particular resembled the original
Creatore, even in his costume, yet any
one who had ever seen the famous di-
rector Of the Italian band would have
recognized and appreciated the burlesque
This The gypsy camp was very pretty
On the stage, which showed a pretty
camping ground with the tents in the
background, and g gypsy kettle over a
good fire, were fifty men and women In
the picturesque costumes of gypsies. The
color effect was strikingly brilliant The
women wore tinseled crepe skirts and
suave Jackets Of contrasting colors,
scarcely two costumes showing the same
colors, white blouses and bright handker-
chiefs pinned in their hair The men
wore black velvet knee breeches, colored
stockings, white blouses, colored capes
and sashes and wide brimmed sombreros.
Singing a pretty Gypsy melody and dane
ing odd figures about the camp fire. the
effect was truely Bohemian.

snow storm waltz. At 1890 in the
midst Of waltz. the lights were lowered
and snow in the way Of feathers and
paper Whirled all over the room from a
pretty bell-shaped affair hanging in the
center Of the room. At the same time
d1Herent colored serpentines were thrown
from all sides of the room, and calcium
lights played f1tfully upon a scene Of a
dreamy waltz.
A banquet was served in the dining
room to fully 300 guests and 1920 ball
was pronounced a brilliant success.

been hearts in everything. for some time,
and 1t is a poor girl who has not a heart
OF some kind in her Possession in a bit

nouceable In valentines which have never
run SO much into heart shapes as this
year. In hearts of G. large size are cards
at cents each, which have the usual
decorations upon them with appropriate
text and on the outer edge g. string of
little hearts. From these small hearts the
sizes increase up to an enormous red

Attractive affairs in the way of mex
penSiVe valentines are similar to the
cards and sketches of different kinds
which have been popular within the last
year or so. They are of the style of the
little sunbonnet girl and her companion
and contemporary, the overall boy, who
have figured in so many ways and for so
many purposes. For the valentines there
are number of reproductions of figures
in colors in this line, some as good, many
less satisfactory, but all with more or
less merit. These come on gray and
black cards, those of medium size cost
ing Is cents each. They are certainly in
finitely better than many things which
go by the name of valentine. One little

to say: "Cold hearts must he warmed,
