THE COOKBOOK,

Peeled, chopped tomato sprinkled
over lettuce, the whole covered with
French dressing, makes Russian
salad.
10 steam potatoes peel them and
when very clean put them in colan-
der over boiling water. Cover tightly
with lid and leave them until done.
Tarragon leaves are most useful In
salad and should be scalded, squeezed
In towel and chopped fine. This herb
gives zest to the salad that is always
appreciated.
When making beef tea, never add
the salt till the meat has been cooking
for several hours. Salt acts upon the
fiber and prevents 1t giving out all it's
nourishing properties.
A steak one inch thick requires to be
broiled seven minutes; one inch and q
half, twelve minutes; two inches,
twenty minutes, near the fire at first
and then four inches away.
substitute for caper sauce Is made
by boiling some sprigs Of parsley slow
ly to let 1t become bad color. DO not
chop It fine. Set it IN melted butter,
season with salt and Il dessertspoonful
OF vinegar, boil up and serve.

He w Warlted
to Gain Flesh

A Boston millionaire was very
thin. Business cares and consc-
quent nervous troubles told the
story. Hebecame alarmed, it is said,
and consulted famous specialist.
1" l want some flesh," he said.
"I am willing to pay for it. I'll
give you $500 for every pound of
solid healthy flesh you can put on
these bones.''
1t was big price, but he could
weH afford to pay it. For undue
thinness is dangerous. 1t means
disease, or the approach of disease.
Cod liver oil has most always
been prescribed for this condition.
1t has wonderful properties as a
medicine, but its disagreeable grease
and vile taste and smell make most
people sick.
We have long thought that
something could be devised with
cod liver oil as a basis that would
arrest emaciation, promote nutrl-
ton, stimulate digestion, aid in
throwing off rheumatism, lung
trouble, bronchitis, coughs, and
prove a real bodybuilding tonic
reconstructor and flesh former.
We have found it in Vinol (if
you are interested call at the store
and we'll tell you h0aO we found it)
and it certainly does the work. 1t
is pleasant to take. If you are
sick and thin, try Vinol- You can
get your money back if it doesn't
help you.

We want the best men at the head
of both our natiooal and local gov
ernments, regardless of their politics.
We shall continue, with the aid of
our friends, to devise modes of al
leviating misery until we fall on the
very plan suggested more than 1000
year" ago by the prophet who fore
told tho coming of Jesus Christ.
Let us as a people form and aban
don codes Of morals until we shall
come at last in our international and
private affairs to the moral maxim
of the Now Testament, and the world
shall arrive at the conclusion
that the highest wisdom is to
sit down like children at tho feet OF
the Son of God.
Fathers and mothers Of every race
manifest more interest in the boys
and girls. Too many boys are idle
We are grateful to our friends for
what they have done for us as peo-
pie and what they are doing al
the present time, and we urge that
they be slow to classify individuala
who endeavor to destroy.

Another rediculus food tad has

PEELED the silly notion that one
kind of food Is needed for brain,
another for muscle, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet
will not only nourish a particular
part of the body, but will sustain
every other part. Yet, however
good your food may be, Its nutri-
