NOVEL CHICKEN DISHES.
An Excellent Recipe for Chicken Pud-
ding and Full Directions for Civ
ing the Meat Wild Flavor.

An improvement on old-fashioned
chicken pie. which was always rath-
or insipid dish, is chicken pudding.
Cut up two chickens. IL a good-sized
pudding is wanted, and fry them in a
very hot saucepan with chopped salt
pork and few slices of onion. The
frying is merely to seal the outside,
and five minutes is ample time to al
low for this. Fill the saucepan half
full of boiling water, season with salt
and pepper, and stew the chicken until
it is quite tender. Remove from the
liquor and place in a baking dish.
Make batter with -four, milk, a
tablespoonful of butter and three eggs,
whites and yolks beaten separately.
Pour this over the chicken and bake.
Boil down the liquor in which the
chicken was stewed. thicken with a
roux of flour and butter, and serve in
a sauce boat with the pudding.
Chicken cooked after the following
recipe closely resembles prairie chick

MRS. zzfarmey 1AzIs. ENa Lee

An eminent physician says that
"Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician" This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to q
male physician, but this is only in re-
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive. refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician.
This is especially the case with un-
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now CORE
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
30 that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients,
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Ifyou suffer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, and she
will advise You free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol-
lowing are constantly pouring in.

ON SWEEPING "A ROOM.
Hardwood Floors Infinitely Prefer
able. to Carpets, But Where Latter
Are Used Clean Strenuously.

Il requires skill and patience to sweep
q room properly. The chief mistake
made by the novice Is In taking long,
heavy strokes. Short. light strokes
which are firm do the work as II should
be done. II is always best to sweep a
heavy Brussels carpet or one of similar
make once with the grain and then
across It, going over each three or four
yards in this way until the entire carpet
is swept. When carpet is old and worn
evenly this Is not necessary, but IL it is
new or has perceptlble ridges In the
weaving this method should be followed.
After going over q room thoroughly,
allow the dust to settle, and in ten or
fifteen minutes give 1t the final brushing
sweeping once again rather lightly.
This can be done with a carpet sweeper
or dampened broom. Tea leaves scat
tered over the carpet, however, are bet
ter than either. They should be wrung
out and loosely sprinkled over the car
pet just before this final sweeping.
II is good plan to add cupful of salt
to every two cupfuls of tea leaves used.
The salt seems to brighten the colors of
faded carpet. as well as to aid in the
removal of dust. When this second
sweeping is over use a whisk broom
around the corners and at the edges of
the carpet.
After the walls are busted and the car
pet is thoroughly swept, some house,
keepers wipe off the carpets surface
with a cloth dipped In salt and water
and then thoroughly wrung, out This
will remove every atom of dust. A cloth
used for this purpose must be frequently
rinsed out in fresh water, and then
dipped again into salt and water, wiring
ing thoroughly. other housekeepers rub
the carpet with cloth wrung out as dry
as possible from water to which two
tablespoonfuls of ammonia have been
added for every gollon. This will also
brighten faded colors.
1t is needless to say that in sweeping
as thoroughly as this everything in the
room should either be removed or COW
cred carefully with busting sheets.
Housekeepers who are buying heavy
pieces of furniture should select only
those that can be set on casters, SO that
they can be pushed out snd the dust un-
der them removed.
1t is great mistake to neglect sweep
ing as thoroughly as this once week.
Dust that becomes ground into a CARPET
wears 1t out more than anything else.
Fortunately, many houses of to-day are
built with hardwood floors, so that this
burden Of sweeping is materially les
sened. Wood Loors are easily swept with
hair brushes or rubbed with crude pc
troleum or simply polished with wax

WORRY THE
GREAT PLAGUE

A prominent western physician,
VINO, apparently, has no tro,b.es II
MS own 10 bother about has been
busily engaged In subjecting the
woes OF others to the test of scientific
analysis, writes Graham Hood In the
New York Globe and Commercial
Advertiser. With infinite care he
has arranged a mass of statistics to
prove, TO his own satisfaction at
least, that worry Is a vice which Is d.
rectly responsible for more III health
and death than either whisky or to-
lacco.
The conclusion which this investi-
gator has reached suggests a question
that Is well worth thinking about. Is
worry a vice Or menta poison and Is
II STEADILY undermining the health Of
those who are subject to It's influence?
The idea Of classifying worry as a
poisonous factor fatal to the nervous
structure OF the body is not a new
theory. Years ago the first note OF
warning was sounded and, since that
tine, scores Of physicians have an.
nOunced that there could be no ques-
ton that the chance for long life in
persons afflicted with true mental
worry was very much diminished.
\ But what are we to do about It?
W. may agree with the old phil
osophers that 1t Is useless TO bother
about anything as long as we remain
In ignorance regarding the nature of
the causes which produce the changes
In our condition. while we cannot
hope to remedy them by altering the
course OF events, and yet that does
not make us stop worrying.
It Is one thing for the physicians to
preach and for philosophers to theor.
lie. 1t is quite another thing to act
In accordance with their teachings.
We are interested In knowing that a
single hour Of worry does more harm
to- the nervous system than an entire
day devoted to fatiguing manual
labor, and their doctrine Of content
ment is a pleasing philosophy to
dream over, but the man or woman
who In these days is able to carry
such theories into practice is an ex-
~ceptiOnally fortunate individual.
There are moments in every life when
1t is impossible not to give way to
some expressions Of anxiety; there
are other moments when such doubts
and fears are sacred thoughts. and
to >say that they r unnecessary is
utterly ridiculous.
At the same time there is a solu.
ton to this problem Of worry-a solu-
ton so simple that anybody can re-
sort to 1t II he will but exercise an
ordinary degree Of self.control.
Don't borrow trouble!
That Is the secret Of the whole
philosophy. Don't worry about trifles!
Don't anticipate evils which, in all
probability. will never be realized!
We spend countless hours In antici-
pating the future. We make noun
tains out of molehills and impossible
rivers out Of shallow brooks, whereas
II we would but make up U minds
that we will never worry about any
Ill until that misfortune has actually
come upon u.s., We would all be 80
healthy and happy that we would
have no occasion to bother our heads
with these intricate scientific analyses
of the probably death rate from
worry.
