FOR REAL CHICKEN STEW.
Famous Dish as It Is Prepared In
Virginia.

Il chicken can be had, try the ia.
nous stew Of Virginia, which contains.
in addition to the chicken, new corn
and tomatoes, onions. beans and pota.
toes. A little later squirrels may be
used in the place of the chicken. In
either case the stew is a meal in itself.
Allow to two or three chickens or
squirrels, which should be cut in small
pieces and laid in cold water to draw
out the blood, one quart tomatoes,
peeled or sliced, or quart can OF TO-
matoes, half a dozen ears of green corn
cut from the cob, one sliced onion, six
parboiled and sliced potatoes, one gal
Ion water, with butter, black pepper,
sugar and salt to season; put the Wa
ter on in a kettle to heat, adding a
tablespoon of salt; when it has come
to boil and cooked I'VE minutes, put
in the onion, beans, corn and 1sota-
toes; pepper the chicken or squirrel
and all; cover closely and simmer
gently for two and a half hours, STIR
ring often from the bottom to prevent
sticking: now add the tomatoes, with
two tablespoonsfu1 of sugar, and stew
an hour longer; when almost ready
to serve the dinner, add a half cup
butter cut in small pieces and rolled
in flour, boil ten minutes to thicken,
and serve.

Gray Costume Most Effective.

A gray costume of the gray that
is youthful in effect-not the stone
gray suitable for elderly women to
wear in a street. costumes ex-
tremely serviceab1e, and can be made
most charming trimmed with braid
and with white lace in yoke and
sleeves. A narrow braided waistcoat
in white or some delicate color gives
q good contrast The coat can be
either short or long. If short, it must
be on an elaborate model; in fact,
the elaborate model is the best to
choose under all circumstances. As
the gown is intended for afternoon
or theater wear, it should be conse-
quently quite distinct in style and
effect from the more simple model
suitable for morning or. street wear.
Chiffon cloth and chiffon, the new
weaves of soft silk or satin, as has
been said, are fashionable in waists
to be worn with the cloth skirts and
coats. Even a lightweight cloth
waist seems too heavy under a cloth
or fur coat, while houses are SO
overheated now that it is not com
Portable to be too heavily dressed. All
these materials can be found in
shades to match the cloth, and are
extremely satisfactory.

DREAM REVEALS HIS NAME.
Man Who Foraets Identity Found to
Be Prosperous Banker.

Sacramento, GAIA dream has
cleared up the mystery of the man
who forgot his identity. Several days
ago a well-dressed passenger on a
train from the east visited the police
station and requested the aid Of Chief
Denny toward ascertaining who he
was, where he had come from and
what he was in Sacramento for On
all other subjects the man was per
fectly rational, but he was at an utter
loss to account for his identity or his
presence here.
Thinking that the mans lapse OF
memory was due to some sudden
shock Or to illness, the chief had him
quartered at the county hospital.
where the case ever since has baffled
the physicians. The man, who is OF
middle age and fine physique, seemed
in normal health, but still his memory
vn the all-important subject was q
blank and his effects offered no clew.
City Attorney Howe visited the
county hospital and learned from the
strange patient that he had expert
0AAScA
which he imagined himself the reeip-
lent OF letter upon which were the
words Dixon, Coon Rapids, Iowa"
Thinking that the incident might lead
to something, the city attorney looked
UP the name in Bradstreet's and found
A. Dixon rated as the president of the
National bank at Coon Rapids, Iowa.
He at once sent a telegram making
inquiries about the unknown man and
promptly received a reply asking him
to give Frank E. Dixon the best of
care.
From the message the conclusion is
drawn that Frank E. Dixon is the
mans name and the authorities are
satisfied that the dream will be found
to have lifted the strange mystery
yelling his history.
