THE HOME
THE UNLOCKED FOR GUESTS.

There is a certain time when the
housewife is worried and dismayed and
has to hide both these emotions and
that is when unexpected company
comes. Often guests arrive after the
midday meal, and the PANTRY is bare"
However, if a little forethought Is
used, and certain things kept on hand
in a convenient place, the housewife
need not be troubled, for it will not
take her long to get up palatable
meal. OF course it is not to be ex-
pected that you furnish unlimited
guests a banquet, or even a regular
dinner, and why should you? 1t is
well enough to do so If you have two
or three servants to do your bidding,
but we who depend upon our own two
hands to do everything in the culinary
line cannot do so.
Instead get a quick but substantial
lunch for them. Above all, do not
show any worry or haste, and If you
will keep the following articles of food
in your pantry or cupboard you will
be able to get them a meal willingly
and quickly and have plenty of time
to spend in their company and enjoy
their visit:
Ham, bacon and Clipped beef should
be standbys on the farm. Oysters, too,
as they can be quickly made into soup;
salmon can be eaten as it comes from
the can or a salad dressing added;
cabbage for slaw, eggs in variety,
cheese, crackers, canned beans, toma-
toes and corn are quickly prepared;
canned fruit with crackers or cookies
may form the dessert It is we'll to
have a bottle Of salad dressing, pickles,
preserves, jelly and the like in the
pantry for these very emergencies. It
is well also to have a second best table
cloth and napkins reserved for these
very times.

PREPARING planned FISH.

1t is not often that this western coun-
try finds planked fish on the table al
though fish are one Of the staple articles
of diet and may be readily obtained
The following recipe for preparing the
fish and cooking it on a plank ought to
prove valuable to some housewives:
First select a hard wood plank an
inch and a half in thickness. It may
be made to fit the bottom of the oven
and sufficiently wide to hold the fish,
Have the fish cleaned and split. If the
board is round at the corners you would
better cut out the thin PORTIONS of the
fish and place the two halves together,
the thinner sides to the center Brush
with melted butter and dust with salt.
Have the board thoroughly heated, place
the fish, thin side down, and put it be-
fore an open wood fire or down in the
bottom Of your gas oven or in the oven
of an ordinary stove. Basic once or
twice with melted butter and cook until
a golden brown. Have ready four or
five good-sized potatoes, boiled and
mashed; add them to a level tablespoon
full of butter four or five tablespoons
full of hot milk and a palatable season.
ing of salt and pepper; beat until light.
Put into a pastry bag at the end or
which you have a star tube; press the
potato into a rope-like form around the
entire fish. Run it again under the gas
light or in the oven for a few moments
until brown Garnish with lemon and
serve on the plank.

DETECT COTTON THREAD IN CLOTH

The difference between wool and cot
ton is very great, and in the case or
separate threads of each is plainly ap-
parent; yet, when these same threads
are closely interviewer some good
Judges are mistaken and buy mixed
cotton and wool goods, firmly convinc-
ed that there is not a thread of cot
ton in the cloth. 1t is the custom or
all mills that manufacture cotton and
wool mixtures to run the cotton cross
wise in the looms, thus leaving the
wool to run lengthwise. This Is done
for two purposes; first, to impart the
glossy appearance which the longer
stretch of wool thread gives when run
in the length of the goods, and, sec
ondly, because the proportion of cotton
is necessarily less and therefore more
difficult to detect. The cotton thread
of course is much smaller and very
difficult to distinguish in closely WOW
en- fabric. There is one infallible test,
however:
Take the bolt Of goods at the cut
end and examine closely the crosswise
thread, slowly pulling it apart. If 1t
breaks almost evenly and comes apart
slowly then one is safe in judging 1t
to be all wool. IT, on the contrary, 1t
breaks in short, uneven strands and
falls apart easily, refuse to accept the
goods, for it is undeniably cotton, and
will not give satisfaction. 1t were far
better to get all cotton or all wool.

while rubbing out the second tubful
Some hot water should be added to
loosen the dirt and likely some soap
too. Afterwards they are treated like
the finer things. Every day shirts for
men and dresses or aprons for women
and children may have soaking too,
and even a little scalding after the new
ness is gone and they have lost their
freshness of color.
Overalls and everyday pants should
be washed as regularly as other gar
ments, but these are best scrubbed
clean with a brush and then thoroughly
rinsed so no traces of soap remain
Washings thus done are a gratifying
sight to the housewife and the smell Of
the clothes sweetened by country air
and sunshine is more agreeable than
any perfume

CORN MEAL PoRRIDGE.

Corn meal or Indian porridge is
most healthful and appetizing dish, yet
is not generally served. 1t Is dish
that is so cheap the poorest families
can afford it, but 1t is more to be
found on the table or the wel-to-do. 1t
would seem the poor disdain to have so
cheap a dish because of it's cheapness.

MAKING MARSH MALLows.

These dainty candies are made by
dissolving one pound of clear white gum
arabic in one quart Of water, strain and
place on the fire. Stir constantly until
sugar is dissolved and the mixture be-
comes of the consistency Of honey.
Next add gradually the beaten whites Of
eight eggs. Stir the mixture all the
time until it thickens and does not adj

the same way as is oatmeal porridge,
but should be a trif1e thick. 1t is ex-

served with a good tomato sauce, or, as
a change, with sugar, jam, honey or

FISH CAKES.

We should think that where fish are
so plentiful and cheap the ingenious
housewife could make a large number
OF very delicious dishes with fish. One
of these is fish cake, made as follows:
Mince finely the cooked remains of any
boiled fish, adding a little butter, half
the quantity Of mashed potato, a tiny
piece Of shalbot, chopped fine, minced
parsley, and salt to taste. Mix all with
a beaten egg, dredge in a little flour and
form the mixture into fiat cakes, dip in
egg and bread crumbs, and fry until
golden brown color. Drain, put on
dish, pepper and garnish with fried
parsley.

WASHING MADE EASIER.

To very many housekeepers washday
is Blue Monday" in the fullest sense Of
the word, and all week they suffer from
it's effects. There are directions in
plenty for making the work easy, but
when tired they do not perceptibly
tighten the burden, for many have been
written by those more familiar with the
theory than practice of such work
There are some methods however which
make washing easier than the old way
of rubbing on a board depending on
"elbow grease to make the clothes
clean. To take advantage Of chemical
cleansers causes the clothes to last lon
ger and saves much wear and tear on
the lawn dresses as we'll, particularly
if washing machine is used.
Preferring Tuesday for washday tthe
clothes are sorted in two lots leaving
out hand and dish towels used about
the kitchen. Each lot is put in tub
with sufficient warm, not hot, water to
cover without crowding, having pre-
viously added a tablespoonful Of house
hold ammonia to every gallon Of water
and enough soap to make a good suds.
OF course If the water is not soft lit
tie washing soda or concentrated I've
must be used to break It," Let the
clothes lie in this overnight If conve-
nient, covered, as the ammonia Is very
volatile. The next morning wiring out
and if there are any extra soiled spots
rub them till clean; douse and wiring
through another warm suds and put in
boiler of warm water which has had
some borax or turpentine added as
bleacher. Borax is the most desirable
though good results are obtained from
fnd q r
very susceptible to the action Of tur-
pentine and may absorb enough to cause
some slight disturbance Of the system.
There is little danger If wringers are
used, and the writer confesses to hav-
ing felt no i'll effects, though turpentine
was the standby as a cleanser for years
or until borax became cheap and was
put on the market in powdered form.
Three or four tablespoonful Of either
to an ordinary number eight or nine
boiler is about right. The clothes need
only barely come to a boil in this, then
should be taken out In a tub Of warm
water for sudsing, then wrung from
more warm water before passing into
the final cold bluing water.
Abundance of water and no change
from hot or cold, until the clothes are
clean and two rinsings that all soap
may be removed, are the secrets of the
snowy clothes made possible by this
mode of washing. The clothes are han
died many times, but this handling is
not nearly so wearisome as rubbing and
not nearly so destructive to the texture
of cloth.
When the tubful of finest clothes
have been washed; put the kitchen tow
els and such like in the water and soak

WAYS OF TESTING FLOUR.

Look at it's color (1) If 1t is white,
with a slightly yellowish or straw
color, that is a good sign. If it is very
white, with a blush cast, or with
black specks in it, the flour is not good.
CD Examine it's adhesiveness. Wet
and knead a little of 1t between the
fingers; if it works dry and elastic it
is good; if it works soft and sticky 1t
in POOR. Flour made from spring wheat
is likely to be sticky. CD Throw lit
tie lump of dry flour against dry,
smooth, perpendicular surface. If it ad-
here in a lump the flour has life in it;
if it falls like powder, it is bad (4
Squeeze some Of the flour in the hand;
if it retains the shape given by the
pressure, that, too, Is a good sign.
