st. Louis Republic
An old chicken is best for boiling. Put
a quart of water into a kettle and when

herbs, and little salt and pepper. When
done, lift out and drain carefully. Strain
the broth i'm the kettle, thicken with flour,
add a tablespoonful of chopped parsley and
any other seasoning liked, pour over the
chicken and serve at once. Garnish with
slices of fried bacon.
Boil small onions in milk till nearly ten
der, and stuff a cleaned chicken with them.
Boil, add minced boiled onions to the sauce
pour over, sprinkle with chopped parsley
and serve at once.
Take a young. fat chicken and prepare
for boiling. Cook in q buttered saucepan
with pint Of white stock for half an hour,
seasoning with salt and pepper TO taste
Add a pound of button onions, peeled and
cook half an hour longer, turning the
chicken occasionally. At serving time put
the chicken in a deep platter and strain
the sauce over X. Make q ring of the
boiled onions around the chicken alternat-
ing with small squares OF bacon fried to
a crisp.

teen minutes. Then add an onion stuck

The Travellers Luncheon.

The Cooking Club
Nothing is more unappetizing than to
have to eat from the same lunch basket
several times in succession. After the first
meal 1t looks mussy and scrappy. Try
this plan:
Do UP each meal by itself in a paste
board box with change of menu as you
would for luncheon at home. Strap boxes
compactly together.
Let one. for instance, contain sliced ham,
olives, brown bread and butter, cookies
and apples. Another fried chicken, pickles.
white bread and butter, cup Of jelly, slices
of cake and oranges. Another tongue,
chOw-chow, rolls and butter, ginger cook
les and bananas, and so on.
Throw box and scraps away at close of
each lunch.
Still another attractive way is to wrap
each separate article of food in oiled tis-
sue paper, and then arrange neatly in a
lunch basket or box. Thus the sandwiches,
meats, relishes, cakes and fruits would
each be by themselves.
generous supply Of paper napkins
should be found in all lunch baskets
These should be thrown away after eacn

Circuit Court by Judge Hazel sustaining

out the country have been interested in the
decision because it brought up for a final
settlement the question as to whether
pearls placed in a box instead of paper and
arranged In graduated sizes could be classi-
fed as being strung or set.
The board took the stand that the stones
were so classified and levied the highest
duty. This is upheld by Judge Hazel.

ParIOr Amusements.

Good Housekeeping.
Two parlor amusements which I have
lately seen carried out with great success
are the following: Send a person out
of the room, decide upon object or
some simple performance, recall the per-
son, and have a member of the party
place his fingers lightly upon the per-
sons shoulders while he and all the
others think intently of the object or
act decided upon. The results some
times are almost uncanny. A lady went
straight and drew a scarfpin from, a
mans necktie, just as we willed, found q
key hidden in a lady's slipper, and so
on. The other trick is to draw upon
a sheet of paper square. with diagonal
opportunity of the artist to watch his
own progress being in a mirror held up
before his hands by a second person. A
hand which is doing the drawing. The
results are sometimes uproariously funny

The newer skirts are flounced, but a
fiounced skirt is not a difficult thing to at
tempt, provided the skirt itself fits well.
To begin with, it must be fitted most care
fully around the hips and in front, and
have plenty of fullness at the back, but
the fullness can be hidden in inverted
pleats The fiounces should be put on to
form becoming line. There are very few
figures which look well with the straight

dip towards the front, and much more
fullness at the back than anywhere else.
Both gathered and pleated fiounces are
fashionable, but the gathered ones are
much easier to make, and the most effect
