Spanish Cookery.

Tortillas-Corn meal, water, salt to
taste. The meal should be made from
ripe corn, which has been boiled in I've
made from wood ashes or a little lime
until the skins are loosened. 1t is then
ground in a mortar or on a metate "a
flat stone raised at one end, the grind
ing being done with a stone rolling pin).
A very good substitute, however, is
our Indian meal. Mix the meal with
hot water to a stiff paste, add a little
salt, pat the paste into fiat cakes and
bake on a griddle-a soapstone one be-
ing much better than iron.
Tortillas are seldom eaten alone, be-
ing the basis for many of the other
Spanish dishes, but they are very nice
eaten in place of our hot cakes, with
butter, honey, maple syrup. etc.
Enchiladas-Take freshly made tor
tillas. dip into boiling olive oil or lard,
then into chile sauce. Sprinkle with
grated cheese, mixed with finely minced
cooked meat or hard-bo eggs. Roll
and sprinkle on more cheese, or arrange
in LAYERS of three or four. After pre-
pairing. set them in the oven for two
or three minutes, so as to serve as hot
as possible. Garnish with lettuce, rad
ishes and small green onions.
Tamales-Five pounds of Indian meal,
one-half pint hot water, one pint olive
oil or melted lard; salt to taste. Mix
and beat with the hands until very
light. Have ready some dry and clean
husks. On each huslx put a large
spoonful of the mixture with another
husk, tie up the ends with. two stElns
of husk and steam for two hours.

Mourning Worn Lightly.

To be up to date woman must take
her mourning lightly and wear it so.
Fashion dictates to our hearts as well
as to our clothes, if appearances are to
be trusted.
Fashionable folks in deep mourning
were to be seen by the score at the
Brooklyn handicap and the Suburban
this year, and the restaurants also see
them when they come to town. Crepe
is very much worn, but always COM
bined with bit of white.
For example, the very newest mourn
ing hat from across the seas is a black
crepe chapeau, made up in lingerie
style and faced with pipings of white
lisse. White crepe exactly like the
black is much employed in hats and
wells for those in second mourning, and
is by long odds the more becoming of
the two.
Just why one wearing crepe does not
see fit to discard diamond earrings and
necklace of pearls the thoughtful per-
son fails to see, but the two seem to
be a favorite combination both here
and abroad.-NeW York Sun.

Poke Bonnets Again.

The latest somersault of fashion is
TO turn from the lingerie hat, with its
Hopping brim of lace or fine embroi-
derry, to the old-fashioned poke bonnet.
A well-dressed woman must have at
least one poke bonnet in her hat box
to wear with gowns having down
ward droop from the shoulders, after
the style seen in old daguerreotypes.
This new poke, however, is modified
and altogether charming.
Very smart milliners did their best
to introduce the real 1880 poke of Flor
entine straw with orchard truck orna-
mentation, but it was no go, and in
stead woman has accepted bonnet
of handmade satiny straw braid
trimmed simply with band of very
broad soft ribbon around the high
crown and huge broad bow acrosss the
front.
A few wearers take kindly to strings
Of black velvet tied in a chic. way un-
der the left ear, but most of the pokes
are stringless.-New York Sun.

esting, for it shows a good disposition.
Persons with hair of your peculiar
shade of dTab brown are generous and

by washing 1t with soda and bronzing

Maude H.: My hands are brown and
they are chapped and ugly. Summer
has bad effect on them. Can you give
me a lotion for them?
You might try a good skin emollient
during the day, after washing the
hands, and at night sleep in gloves
lined with a bath paste.
3. c. H: Kindly give me formula
for a hand bleach. l want a lotion that
can be used frequently.
Try this. To an ounce of red vase
line add half an ounce of almond oil.
Heat together and beat as it is cooling.
Miss T.: Is there such a thing as
clover cream? 1 would like to have it,
as 1 have heard it recommended from
the long ago.
Glover cream as it was made by our
grandmothers consisted of one ounce
of sleeps tallow melted in cup over
hot water. To this was added half the
quantity of almond oil. This was beat
en- together and was scented with a few
drops of camphor. 1t was sometimes
called camphor ice. 1t is excellent for
chapped lips. 1t was called clover
cream because a strip of clover was
stirred in it.

Miss Y: l want a good pore food.
Can you tell me one that will keep for
two months while ] am away?
Here is one that will keep. Take suf-
ficient mutton tallow to fill an eggshell.
Melt it in a double boiler and add a
teaspoon of the oil of sweet almonds.
This will be a firm cream that can be
carried in the egg shell if desired.

Tamale Stuffing-To four pounds of
chicken, pork or beef, cooked and
chopped, add one quart of chile sauce
and a little chopped onion and garlic.
Boil for ten minutes. One pint of
stoned olives and one pound of seed
ed raisins may be added, but they are
net absolutely necessary.
Frijoles-Boil brown beans until thor
oughly done, usually about five hours,
then mash thoroughly with a potato
masher. Stir a little chopped onion
and two or three pepper pods into some
boiling olive oil or lard; strain off the
oil or lard and put it into frying pan.
When boiling pour in the mashed beans
and fry until the oil or lard is entirely
absorbed by the beans and they are
quite dry. Serve on tortillas.

Beautiful Burberry Pancakes.
Served as a luncheon dish, will con-

vanishing strawberry shortcake. But
tered and sprinkled lightly with sugar
they form an even more delicious fruit
and batter" combination. Mix as for
ordinary pancakes, only being careful
to avoid the sour milk variety, as a
dry batter is needed. On this account
even a patent pancake flour may be
used with good results, though real
flannel cake" mixture is best of all.
The blueberries are stirred in as thick
ly as the supply admits, and will raise
up in most fascinating manner as
the cake is baked on one side, and be-
gin to bust>jus as it is done on the
other. The secret of having them at
their best is to serve Immediately, but
tering each one as it is laid upon the
plate, and serving a plateful to each
person in turn. Sugar is preferred to
syrup as a sweetner, as the fruit fur
nishes enough moisture.
A welcome change may also be run
on the pancake with red raspberries.
Bake the batter in three large cakes
the size of the griddle. Butter each
literally, spread with fresh red rasp-
berries and sugar, pile on top Of each
other, and cut in sections like a layer
cake. Raspberry jam makes a good
substitute for fresh berries and sugar.

taking chances on her from being re-
vealed.
The mare was pitchforked, VITA
nothing worth mentioning in the way
of weight on her back, into an over
night handicap with lot of swagger
horses, which made good price
against her a certainty. Her people de-
signed to blister the poolrooms
throughout the country on the win,
and so they sent their commissioners
to various points with the money a
couple of days before the race.
"Now, a short time before the day
of the contemplated killing, the owner
of the mare got permission from the
jockey club stewards, for some reason
or other, to change the mares name
from Fleur-de-lis to Maxine. The COM
missioners who had gone west and
south with the big money to bet on
Fleu-de-lis didn't know anything
about this switch of the mares name
IT, Maxine, and, through an oversight,
they were not informed.
at happened that the poolrooms the
commissioners went to failed to chalk
formerly Fleur-de-lis' after the name
of Maxine, as is occasionally done on
the poolroom blackboards when
horses name is changed. and so the
commissioners, concluding. for some
reason or other, that the mare hadn't
been entered in the race that was to be
the killing, kept all of that fine Fleur-
de-lis money right in their clothes. You
can draw for yourself little charcoal
sketch of how these commissioners felt
when the operators in the poolrooms,
after calling off the race and ANNOUNCE
ing that Maxine had strolled in some
thing easy, supplemented their calloff
with the dry remark: Maxine was
formerly Fleur-de-hs."
'The Maxine party made big thing
of the win at the track, of course; but
so TRIVIAL an oversight as their failure
to inform their commissioners that a
change in the mares name had been
applied for cost them a good many
tens % thousands of dollars"

If you feel like yawning, do not put
your hand or your handkerchief over
your mouth and make a desperate eff
fort to overcome the inclination
Yawn well, and wide and long. 1t is
the right thing for you to do. More
over, it is good thing for society IN
general. 1t means stretching, u
relaxation of the muscles and an ex-
pansion of the interior economy of
the human breast, which in turn
leads to an expansion of the human
heart, an expansion of the human
thought, and aspirations otter the ex-
allied ideals. 1t is good to yawn, and
the man or woman who feels like
yawning should go into a quiet place,
where he or she will be free from
interruption, and yawn, not hesitat-
nglv or spasmodically, but boldly,
throwing the arms up, the chest
forward, the head back and the

THE BAND CONTEST

This feature was something of a dis
appointment to those in charge, as
only one organization came forward
at the hour appointed for the program
TO begin. The judges had received
notice from several bands that they
would enter TIE contest, and a spirit
ed engagement was expected.
Alter some delay the Wayne band,
of Waynesbolo, Pa, came forword
and occupied the pavilion This band
was composed of "a men, under the
direction of Mr. George Byers. They
were received with a roar Of applause
by the immense throng packed about
the stand. The first selection was.
march. to be played at sight, and on
this the band scored 10 points out OF
of possible 100. On the Poet and
Peasant" overture the band scored
7s points out of a hundred. The
march of their own selection was
splendidly rendered.
There being no contest Tor
the cash prize with the Wayne boys,
the judges promptly awarded the
money to that organization, the an
nouncement being received by the
crowd with more applause.
After the Wayne boys vacated the
pavilion the City band OF Keyser, w.
Va, took the stand. This band was
not entered in the contest, owing to
the fact that they failed to receive the
Instructors governing it until few
DAYS ago. They had made no prepa-
rations for the event, but fom their
work they could have given the
Wayne boys hard run for tbs mon
ey.
