Very few busy women can afford to give

hood she was the acknowledged belle of
her native place. Her complexion was
like a rose leaf, her figure was exquisite
her features were regular. Having won
the reputation OF beauty she felt she
must live up to it. She has done so and
it has taken all her time. At forty-fye
she is still engaged in preserving her
charms. She never rises until eleven
o'clock. She is most diligent in the
care of her diet. The time she spends
upon facial and bodily massage leaves
her little for anything else. Verify, she

Her figure she has been able to retain by

Cost of Food in Manila.

Many travellers in the Philippines, as
well as many who have had to live
there on duty, have reported that the
cost of living Is high, but the particu-
lars have not often been set forth, says
the Boston Herald. An advertisement
in the Manila Freedom of prices of
provisions at the Philippine cold stores
affords some specific knowledge on the
subject.
For beef the price per pound is lin
cents): Sirloin, 55; rump, 55; topside,
80; round steak, As; rib roast, As; blade
chuck, 40. For mutton the pound price
is: Leg, As; shoulder, 80; loin chops
35 to 45; stew pieces, 10. For pork
Leg, 60; loins, 60; corned pork, 40 to so
Rabbits are 90 cents each; hares. "a
cents; .calf's liver, 40 cents a pound
sausage, 40; smoked cod. 45; salmon
10 to 60; honey, 40. and butter, $1.O5
Most of the meats are imported, OF
course, but they are rather necessary
to the diet of an American. 1t must
be taken into account, also, that the
currency is silver. Doubtless there are
native diets-fish and rice, for exam
ple-that are cheaper. But the supply
of rice is now rather limited and til,
local government is procuring and dis
tributing it to the furnishing.

Toasted Cod.

Secure the latest, best cured of dry
Goldfish; strip and freshen in warm
water. Let it soak a day and night,
changing the water once or twice, &C
cording to the degree of salt it con-
tains. When fresh enough to be pleas
ant to the taste set it on the stove and
let the water come gradually to the
scalding point. Never boil cod that
has been previously sailed and dried.
That makes it hard and will not have
the soft white tint as when treated
thus) Place in bread toaster when
drained, and toast a delicious brown
over the live Goals. While still hot
have ready a gravy of sweet cream
and butter, seasoned with pepper and
pinch of salt, unless the fish is de-
cidedly salt still. Place in covered
dish for table and pour over it the
gravy. If cream be not obtainable a
gravy almost equal to it is made by
rubbing two tablespoonfuls flour
smooth in half cup cold water pour
ing it in a saucepan over fire, and add
ing half cup boiling water. Cook
slowly, stirring constantly, then add
butter size of an egg and cup Of hot
milk or cream. Season.-What to Eat.

To judge Of an ovens heat, try the
oven every ten minutes with piece Of
white paper. If too hot the paper will
blaze up or blacken; when the paper
becomes dark brown-rather darker
than ordinary meat-pie crust-the oven
is fit for small pastry. When light
brown, the color of nice pastry, it is
ready for tarts. When the paper turns
dark yellow you can bake bread, large
meat pies or pound cakes; while, if it
is just tinged, the oven is fit for sponge
cake and merin9ues.
