is CREOLE DAINTY
DELICIOUS FRIED CAKES TO
SERVE WITH COFFEE.
Famous "caIas" Declared to Be Per-
fection of Culinary Art-How to
Prepare Them to Get Best
Results.

An epieure who has travelled far,
and who has eaten the foods of many
lands, met with new culinary ex-
perience in New York recently. He
was visiting a friend, former resi-
dent of New Orleans, when he was de-
| lighted to be served with new va
riety. of fried cake.
In the good old days when "Tante
Zoe" presided as mistress OF the
kitchen; in the days before the war,
when New Orleans was the one spot
in America where one could always
enjoy the best of cooking, there were
several old colored women who used
to pass through the French quarter
Of the city every day selling a most
wonderfully concocted cake that
seemed to harmonic perfectly with
the morning cup of coffee. These
were the ancient "Calas," for which
one might search in vain through New
Orleans to-day, unless he should be
so fortunate as to be invited to par
take of them at the home Of some old
creole family in which the secret OF
their preparation has been preserved
for several generations.
And here is the recipe:
Cook half coffeecupful Of we'll
washed and carefully drained rice in
three pints of boiling water. When 1t
has become very soft, let 1t cocl; then
mash it to paste and mix 1t with half
cake of yeast. Set this to rise at
night. The next morning, beat three
eggs to light froth, mix them thor
oughly with the rice, and add half
coffeecupful of sugar, with about
three tablespoonfuls of -four, and mix
these ingredients into a thick batter
by stirring and beating with a wood
en- spoon. When the proper result has
been attained, let the batter rise for
/ Is minutes more; add little nutmeg
to season, blend it perfectly, and fry
IN cakes like fritters, until each is a
delicate brown
To do this, of course, deep fat must
/ be used, for no cake must touch the
bottom of the frying pan. AS each
has acquired the proper tint, however,
remove it cautiously from the sizzling
fat and place 1t carefully on a hot
piece of brown paper, that 1t may
drain. Just before serving sprinkle
the calas literally ws% powdered
sugar, but be sure to sen. chem to the
table while still very hot.
| To fully enjoy the calais they should
be accompanied to the breakfast table
by pot of the genuine French cafe
au lait: To serve it in this fashion,
make the coffee after your faVorite
recipe, then mix with it little less
THAN an equal quantity of boiling milk.
A small pitcher of cold cream may ac-
company the coffee to the table, If de-
sired, etc

pocs Useful in War.

Another field of usefulness has been
found for the dog in war He is al
ready employed as scout. He is now
to serve in the ambulance corps. Two
French army surgeons have taken up
the question with eagerness, pointing
out the limitations of human agency
in collecting the wounded, Of
whom, after every engagement, large
numbers go to swell the dismal list Of
the missing" 1t is contended that
dogs Of keen scent could, with proper
training, render aid.

How to Clean SILK.

For black goods, wash thoroughly in
good soap and water. In rinsing use
raw potato water. The acid in the po-
tato brings out the color of the black
so that it looks like new. The potato
water should be prepared by grating
six or eight good sized potatoes with
the skins on, as that is the beneficial
part Of it. Put on sufficient water to
cover the goods, let it stand all night.
Next morning strain and rinse thor
oughly.

ais the young man Absalon1
safe 7'-Many a father to-day Is
asking this question. The mis-.
take is that the query comes
too late. The safety OF the
young man 10 not matter OF
concern until the young man
has progressed In the down.
ward pathway Of sin to the point
where turning back Is improb-
able and almost impossible.
David's anxiety was the great
er because Of the inner con.
seriousness of his own RESPONSE
biIity for the wayWardness
and wickedness Of his son. As
he asks the question:: %s the
young man Absaiom safer"
there comes crowding In upon
him the memory Of many lost
opportunities In the past for
making sure that the young
man was safe.
Parents should begin to ask
this question: "Is the young
man safe?" not after he has
gone out into the way Of temp
tation and sin, but years before
while he is yet In the cradle.
There -;e praying and the plan
ming should be done which will
safeguard the growing life.
The question should be asked
as the boy goes out to minsle
with his companions and the
parents wisely pick the inti-
mate associates. The question
should be asked again and
again, and should be as often
answered by the parent taking
! the time and trouble to know
where the boy is and what he
is doing.
"A.nd the king was much
moved, and went up to the
chamber over the gate, and
wept." - What poignant and
hopeless grief Is that which
arises from a consciousness of
guilty responsibility for the
tragedy which has fallen. That
is a pitiabIe sight-the aged
\ king utterly crushed and incon-
: soIable because his son had gone
out intoeternal darkness. He had
hoped he might be spared, cling
ing, no doubt, to the thought
that he might yet turn to the
} God he (David) loved. And when
the truth was borne In upon his
heart that 1t was now too late,
too late, he was utterly over
whelmed.
II Is hard to lose the loved
ones even when we know they
are safe with God, even when
the dying hour Is made bright
I with the consciousness OF Gods
presence, but what grief is that
1 which sees no ray Of tight,
I which knows that the Goddess
life has sunk into the Goddess
I grave. And then how doubly
( hard to realize that because of
} the sins Of ones life and be-
cause Of the failure to speak the
word, that lost soul is charge

THE CANDIDATES
PETITIONS FOR NOMINATION IN
ACTIVE CIRCULATION DUR
ING SATURDAY

ID The first note of the coming city 4
election was sounded Saturday when
e. e. Patterson and DR.. Smith circu-
lated their petitions for mayor. Several s.
other petitions were out for aldermen
and city treasurer and considerable
interest is being displayed in the great
coming event.
p. Fl Byrne is candidate for re
election as city treasurer, and as far.
as known no other candidate has yet
appeared.
In the first ward it is understood the
/ candidates for alderman will be
Alderman M. p. slattery and Frank
/ Kuntz.
Henry Tatley does not care for a re-
election in the Second Ward and it is
/ understood the friends of Henry
Reade have prevailed upon him to be-
come a candidate for alderman and
i they have circulated a petition to that
i effect. IA
i In the Third ward the candidates
| are said to he A. F. Marquett and D. j.
McGillis. In respect to the candidacy
of Mr.. McGillis an interesting question
has been raised as to his eligibility to
hold the Office of alderman from the
Third ward on account of his having
removed therefrom to the Sixth ward.
4 On the other hand it is claimed that
he may call the Third ward his home
and claim the privilege of all county.
!, officers to live in the county seat and
, yet hold their residence elsewhere.
Whether the contention viii be raised
so far as taking legal steps in the
case is not known.
In the Fourth ward Alderman Fisher
, is a candidate for reelection and no
, one has yet appeared against him.
There is also complication in the
Fifth ward, where last year two alder
men were elected, the ward having
been newly created both aldermen
were elected for the same term and
there is question as to who, ii
!. either of them, goes out of office. The
same condition exists in the Sixth
ward. +. =
The last day for filing petitions is
tomorrow and it may be that many
more candidates will be in the field
in the various wards before the
witching hour of midnight Monday.
