Nothing takes the dust more freely
than plaster objects. more or less ar
tistic, which are the modest ornaments
of our dwellings. They rapidly con-
tract a yellow gray color of unpIeas-
ant appearance. Here is a practical
method for restoring the whiteness:
Take finely powdered starch. quite
white and make a thick paste with hot
water. Apply when still hot with a
flexible spatula or a brush on the plas-
ter object The layer should be quite
thick. Let it dry slowly. On drying
the starch will split and scale off. All
the soiled parts of the plaster viii
adhere and be drawn off with the
scales.

AIcGRAW MAKES STATEMENT.
His Reasons for Refusing to Play a
Post-Season Series.

New York, Oct 13.-McGraw is out
with a statement in which. as manager
of the New York Nationals. he Shout
ders the blame for refusing TO play the
American league pennant winners The
statement. in part, follows:
When 1 came to New York three
years ago the team was in last place.
Since that time have worked to bring
pennant to New York. The result is
known. Now what the New York team
has won the honor L for one will not
stand TO see it tossed away like a rag
The pennant means something to me
1t is the first I ever won. 1t means
something TO our players. They are
with me in my stand.
We are not a lot of grafters, look
ing for box Office receipts If we had
wanted to sacrifice sport for box office
receipts we would not have won the
pennant as we did We could have
eased up and made it close We never
stopped until We clinched the pennant,
even if il did rob the game of interest
If we did not sacrifice the race in our
own league to the box office We GER
tainly are not going to put in jeopardy
the highest honor in baseball simply
for box office Inducements.
Il know the American league.
ought to. for I paid for my knowledge.
Never while / am manager of the New
pennant, will consent to enter into
a haphazard box office grating game
with Ban Johnson and company.
IF the National league should see ut

same plane as championship games

Hot water In sickness.

No domestic remedy can equal hot
water in cases of congestion of the
lungs, rheumatism or sore throat if
tried promptly and thoroughly. An
acute attack of Group will be usually
relieved in ten minutes if a towel or
strip of flannel folded lengthwise and
dipped into hot water, then slightly
wrung out, be placed around the neck
of the sufferer and covered SO as to re-
tain the heat. The same placed over
the seat of pain will in most cases
quickly give relief in neuralgia and
toothache and. laid over the stomach,
acts like magic in attacks of collie.
Headache almost always yields to the
simultaneous application of hot water
to the back of the neck and to the feet.

toothsome- When a dessert has to be
made ready in a hurry this recipe will
be a boon to the cook: Have ready
four eggs, three teaspoonfuls of pow
dered sugar. one teaspoonful of sifted
flour and three ounces of chocolate
Separate the whites and yolks of the
eggs and melt the chocolate by placing
it in a cup standing in saucepan of
boiling water. Mix the flour smoothly
into the yolks of the eggs and add the
sugar and melted chocolate, stirring all
the while until well mixed. Beat the
whites of the eggs until they assume a
dry or solid appearance and then stir
them lightly into the other mixture.
Pour into a buttered souffie dish or
small cases and bake for about fifteen
minutes, or if in a large case twenty
five.
The very plebeian prune is almost
lost sight of in a souffie of this iIk. and
the flavor is that of some new kind of
fruit In winter, when fruit is ct a
premium, this prune dessert will prove
useful substitute. Half a pound of
prunes three tablespoonfuls of sugar.

pinch of salt. Beat the yolks until

Dainties For the
September Table

oTUFFED TOMATOES.-wash and
- dry well six fine red tomatoes,
those of the beefsteak variety
being the best for the purpose. Cut Off
the tops without detaching so they viii
serve as a cover. Scoop out the pulp
and season with pepper and salt. Peel
ana chop very fine one medium sized
onion and place it in a saucepan with
half tablespoonful of butter and cook
for three minutes over brisk fire, be-
ing careful not to let it get brown. Add
six chopped mushrooms and an ounce
of sausage meat seasoned with salt and
pepper and cook for three minutes.
Add now the pulp of the tomatoes. with
half a cupful of breadcrumbs and a tea
spoonful of chopped parsley Mix well,
cook until the mixture comes to a boh
and then place in a bowl to cool Stun
the tomato shells with this preparation
and close the covers. Lay them on q
tin plate, cover with buttered paper
and cook in a moderate oven for eight
cen minutes.
Eggplant.-One eggplant is sufficient
for a good sized family Cut 1T into
slices about half an inch thick, rub
each slice with salt and then put them
into a deep bowl and cover with water,
putting a weight on top so that the
pieces will remain under water. This
draws out the rank taste Before cook
ing drain the slices one by one and wipe
them with a cloth. Season with pepper
and salt, dip them first in beaten egg
and then in breadcrumbs and fry In hot
fat for at least five minutes, browning
on both sides.
French Brunoise Soup.-Pael and cut
into small squares three medium sized
| carrots. one young turnip, half an on
ion and two leeks. Simmer the vege-
tables. with two heaping teaspoonfuls
of butter for several minutes, and then
add three pints of rich veal stock. Sea-
son the whole with pepper and salt and
let it simmer for three-quarters of an
hour. Chop well one head of lettuce. a
few branches of chervil and the same
amount of parsley and add them to the
soup. A quarter of an hour before
serving add a cupful of well washed
rice, and let it boil in the soup. Serve

HOW TO MAKE SOUFFLES y

THE making of a good souffle is
regarded as the final test of a
first rate cook It is like the
A little girl in the nonsense
rhyme-"When it is good it is very
very good. but when it is bad it is hor-
rid" To turn out a successful dish of
this kind requires the greatest careful
ness and experience. When the process
Il explained to the culinary novice it
seems delightfully."- simple, but its very
simplicity proves a snare for the mex
perienced- One thing to bear in mind
about this Elusive. airy trife is that it
should never be attempted by an IN
practiced hand upon an occasion when
an omission would leave serious gap
in the menu.
One of the most important points
about preparing a souffie is to have the
oven the right temperature. and this is
a matter no one can be actually taught,
for the knowledge must come from ex-
pertence- If the oven is too hot the
aouffle will be hard on top before the
inside has become inflated as much as
IL should, a catastrophe to be avoided
On the other hand, if the oven is not
sufficiently hot there will, in the slangy
language Of the day, be nothing do
ing" and gastronomic failure is
equally sure to result. A happy me-
dunn, that hardest of all things to at
tain in terrestrial affairs is absolutely
necessary in the making of a souf1e.
The size and kind of souf7e have
much to do with the time exposure A
small entree of this sort is put into a
hotter oven than a large souff1e on ac-
count of the latter being allowed to rise
gradually before the top is overlooked.
All hot souff1es to be really appreci-
ated must be served immediately they
are taken from the oven. Therefore a
nice bit of calculation is necessary to
have the dainty ready for the diners
and the diners for the dainty. But no
true gourmet grumbles at a few min
utes wait when his favorite dainty is
in question, for the pleasure OF having
this delicious dish served to perfection
discounts all this
The requisites for q successful soue7a
are good eggs. and plenty of them. The
yolks and whites are separated. and
the whites are whipped until they are
very dry The yolks do not need
such strenuous treatment A few
whisks with the beater will be suffi-
cient for these yellow fellows" The
whites are lightly mixed in at the last
moment When the time comes for
serving it is a fine idea to heat a dish
cover very hot and keep this covering
on the souffie during its progress to the
dining room. only removing 1t at the
last moment Besides the hot souf4e.

be served in the ordinary way or in the
halves of oranges, which is a quaint
and dainty conceit- For preparing this
souffie the ingredients required are six
oranges, three eggs, two ounces of
powdered sugar, two ounces of butter,
a dessertspoonfuI of cornstarch and g
tablespoonful of orange flower water.
Make a small hole in the top of each
orange and with a saltspoon pick out
all the pulp of the fruit. Place the
cuton end of the orange in each open
ing and cut the orange shell in half
Pulp the fruit through a fine sieve and
separate the yolks and white of the
eggs Put the yolks in saucepan with
the sugar and butter, stirring them over
the fire until well blended and thicken-
ed Then mix the cornstarch in
smoothly with the fruit pulp and then
add the yolks. Last of all, stir in lightly
the stiftiy beaten whites of the eggs and
the orange flower water. When the
shells OF the oranges have been made
perfectly dry brush them over the in

whites to a froth and stir them with
the other ingredients. Pour in a souffie
dish and bake in a fairly hot oven for
twenty minutes.
The last recipe added to the list of
souffies will be one containing cheese.
For this creamy dainty use the yolks of
six eggs, four ounces of butter, three
whites of eggs, three ounces of grated
Swiss cheese and three ounces of Par
mesan. salt, pepper and nutmeg. The
method of making is as follows: Put
the yo1iks of the eggs in a saucepan
over the fire and add the seasoning and
the butter. Cook gently, stirring all
the while until as thick as cream, but
do not let the mixture boil. Remove
from the fire and stir in the grated
cheese. Whisk the whites until very
stiff and lightly stir them into the mix
ture. Add a spoonful or two of the
whipped cream and pour at once into a
buttered souff1e pan. Cook about TWEEN
ty minutes in a moderate oven. Just
before removing from the oven strew
the top with grated Parmesan cheese.

sweets of a light nature, although the
title in this connection is something of
a mfsnomer. They are served in souffie
cases. which are ornamental and at
tractive, and bands of paper, which
when served are removed, give them
the raised appearance of the baked
souffles. These frozen souff1es are much
less trouble to prepare than ices.
Throughout the year souff1es are al
ways demanded and liked as a sweet
course by the most fastidious connois-
seur of dainty desserts.
