R6duO6 Ice Bills
Felt Ice Pads Are the Latest Step
Toward Economy.

ANNNiu AINOiOhtgs
The question of the hour with the
average housekeeper is, How to
Keep Down the Ice Bill?" After re-
Taxing from the demands of the gas
and the coal companies, she finds her
self face to face with the problem
of keeping down the consumption of
ice, and here she finds that careless
ness on the part of her servant will
add materially to her account with
the ice man.
A simple device for protecting the
ice supply is. to all appearances, a
pad of felt between sheets of coarsely
woven wire. 1t should measure an
inch less than the refrigerator, all the
way round, to permit circulation. Be
fore laying it under the ice it is dipped
in cold water.
Directly the pad becomes damp
from contact with the ice it throws
pletely envelopes the ice and reduces
the rate of melting. 1t should be
cleaned and aired every time the re-
frigerator is cleaned.
For keeping the refrigerator sweet
smelling, employ charcoal in Jumps.
Nothing Is so effieacious. A little bit
goes long way.
The daily cleaning of the refrlgera-
tor is often done in a slovenly man
ner and is disastrous to the supply of
ice. Some servants mix this task in
with their DISTINGUISHING and morning
work, prolonging 1t unnecessarily. In
reality 1t should be done with dis
patch and system. These directions
from the buyer of a department store
are worth considering.
Before cleaning the refrigerator re-
move all articles of food to a table
or shelf within easy reach. Have ready
In the stationary tubs or an ordinary
wash tub plenty of hot water, soften
ed with a dash of household ammonia
and good white soap which is free
from odor. Plunge into this all the
shelves and movable fixtures, includ-
ing the tray on which the ice rests
The ice should be wrapped in news
paper and set in the coolest spot avail
able. When the fixtures are washed,
set them out in the sun to air and
sweeten.
with the same suds wash the walls
of the refrigerator, rinsing thoroughly
the last few times with cold water
Bring in the fixtures, dip them in cold
water. At them into the refrigerator,
remove the paper from the ice. return
It to the proper compartment, lay a
newspaper over 1t and shut the door.
Then, as quickly as possible, return
all food 10 it's proper place and shut
UP the refrigerator.
"If food is put away carefully In
clean receptacles a refrigerator SHOULD
not be cleaned more than twice
week"

out pairing into iced water for an hour.
They should be sent to the table in

Cucumbers may be pared, thinly
sliced and dropped into clear iced wa
ter for half an hour before serving.
1t Is a grave mistake to follow the
old-fashioned rule of soaking them in
definitely in strong salt water, which
makes them leathery and more than
ordinarily trying on the digestion. Just
before serving, lay them on cold sal
ad dish, pour French dressing over
them, and add a handful of chopped
ice to keep them fresh. Young onions,
thinly sliced, may be added to the GU
cumbers when they are first soaked in
cold water
Asparagus can be made to serve
double duty. When the stalk and tip
are cooked together, the tip is eaten
off and the stalk thrown away. IL
the tips are cooked separately the
stalks can be saved for soup, cream

delicacy for the spring dinner table.
To cook the tips. cut them two

follows: Rub together one tablespoon
of butter and the same Of -four, and
add half a pint of milk. Stir until
smooth and add salt and pepper to

in thick slices and scrape or CRATE off
the outside crust and SCOOP out a 1T
tie hollow in each slice. Brush these
patty-shaped slices of bread with
melted butter, and brown in a quick
oven. Remove the asparagus from
the fire, drain 1t and pile the tips neat
ly in the pieces Of bread. Pour over
the asparagus some of the cream
sauce, and serve as you would patties
of any description, garnishing with
parsley or endive.
II an asparagus salad Is desired, cut
of the tips as already described, lay
ing the stalks away for soup. Cook
the tips until tender, drain carefully
and set away to get ice cold Have
ready some French dressing and some
chopped sweet relish. sometimes
called Waldorf relish. Lay a table,
spoon of asparagus tips on a crisp
young lettuce leaf, sprinkle lightly
with chopped relish, pour over this
the French dressing and serve at once
on individual salad plates. The in
gradients for this salad must be ice
cold.

JOINED WIFE IN INSANITY.
Devoted Husband Had Nursed Her
for Twenty Years.
From the PHILADELPHIA Record.

FROM the Phlladelpnld RECORD.
Lexington, KY, April 24-One of the
most remarkable instances of mans
devotion to woman on record was wit
messed at the Eastern Kentucky In
sane Asylum to-day, when Sheriff Sub
lett of Woodford county brought Mr..
and Mrs. Owington Shock to that in
stitution, they having been declared
insane at Versailles Saturday.
Twenty-Five years ago Shock was a
travelling salesman for a Philadelphia
house at Versailles. He fell in love with
Miss Mary Ellen Johnson, and for sew
eral years their married life was one
of happiness. The mind of the woman
began to give way after a time, how
ever, and Shock was compelled to give
up his position and spend all of his
time with her. For twenty years the
husband has been faithful in his atte,l-
tions to his wife, and during all Of
that time the fortune of his wife was
being spent in an endeavor to cure
her There was no hope for her, how
ever, and after all these years of de-
votion the mind of the husband be-
came unbalanced and they were both
adjudged insane.

Germany Has Brought Pressure Up on the Porte to Secure the

Paris. March I.--AuthoriEaliv advices have been received in Paris which show the eminently satisfactory condition of affairs existing in the Balkans.
 R6umanla. Servia and Bulgaria have given fresh assurances that they pro- pose to maintain peace despite the de- lay in the signature of the proposed agreement between Turkey and Bull Raria. This. it is said. does not show any intention on the part of the Porte to take advantage of Russia's pre-occu- patton In the Far East.
 It is emphatically denied that Austria is mobilizlng troops or that such steps are being taken by the Balkan Statesl This satisfactory condition has been brought about. 1t Is understood. as the result of the attitude of Germany, whose influence was exercised on Turkey; of Austria. which represented the inadvisa- bility of belligerent attitude and of Rou- mania and Russia which applied pressure on Bulgaria and Servia, Russia and Aus tria are understood to be loyalty acting together to bring about the enforcement Macedonia.
 Regarding Great Britain there Is some doubt as to her condition for war in tho Balkans naturally would further embar- rass Russia, but 1t is pointed out that British influence is not as strong in that part of the world as formerly, and that Russia, Austria and Germany acting to- gether can overcome a meddlesome pol icy on the part of any other power.
 The Turkish embassy to-day recited that the Porte proposes to pursue a pol icy of peace, and that if war occurrs 1t VIII be begun by Bulgaria.

Paris. March 1.-In anticipation of negotiations which will follow the Japa- nese war. the Korean officials in Europe are turning their attention to the Powers which give their country support.
 If is feared that Japan. If victorious, will find that she cannot live up to the high principles to which she pledged her self. particularly if the war be long drawn out. Her expenses and losses will be great and Korea. having been occu- pied and serving as a field of battle will be one of the subjects of negotiation.
 If Russia is victorious. Koereas fate' so far as Russian diplomacy can make It, is sealed.
 The Korean government will be urged to authorize its representatives to con duct a campaign designed to arouse the interest of the American people in Korea so that when the negotiations are begun there urgent appeal will be submitted to the President to use his good offices as provided in the treaty between the two States.
