"Just How Much"

The cook book or the printed page
can give only general directions as to
proportions, order in which ingredi-
ents are added, methods of mixing,
cooking vessels and average amount
of heat required. There is necessarily
a very considerable amount of details
left to the common sense and judg-
ment of the one using the recipe. One
can only say with the much-quoted old
colored mammie: "Thar, honey, | done
tole you how much, but you-alls must
fin out de wo'k in de cookin'; they's
a heap moe to lrn."
The amount of ingredients, as to
quantity and proportions, with order
and method of mixing, etc., may be
clearly set forth by the types; but
much good material and many pains
taking efforts may be sacrificed to un-
suitable conditions in the home. The
quality of the material used matters
as much as the quantity; the under
standing Of the terms used in giving
the directions, the conscientious fol-
lowing of the rule, the cleanliness and
suitableness Of the vessels, the tracta-
bility of the oven, the amount of avail
able heat, or the lack of it-all these
things enter into the question of sue
cess or failure. Good judgment and
commonsense methods are essentials.
Many good recipes may be spoilt by
the typo through the use of wrong
letter or figure, and the user should
be able to correct the error by expert
mental knowledge of the subject,
which the typesetter is not supposed
to have. Recipes should be studied,
and the materials to be used should
be measured as much by "judgmen'
as by cup or scales. If one fails, the
failure should be studied and the cause
of it found out, to be avoided the next
time. A recipe should not be tossed
aside because Of failure the first time,
if it '1ooks good" and proportions CIV
en- seem all right. If you must cook,
make a business of it, and pursue busi-
ness methods in handling the matter.
1t Is often remarked that men are bet
ter cooks than women, and the reason
of this is largely due to the fact that
| men do cooking by business methods.
Women must master the art of cook
cry by pursuing it On business lines
and principles.

Some Breakfast Cakes.

Waffes should be served as soon as
cooked, otherwise, they become tough.
There is nothing nicer for breakfast,
If they are properly made and eaten
as soon as cooked.
Light Waffles-Beat together yolks
of three eggs and a pint of sweet
milk; have ready a cup of sifted
flour, with a teaspoonful each of salt
and baking powder in it, and mix the
eggs and milk into it until the soft
batter is smooth. Add tablespoonful
of butter, not melted, but soft enough
to mix well; have the irons very hot
and well creased with a bit of fat
bacon, being very careful to get the
hollows well creased. Beat the whites
of the eggs to a stiff froth, add tea
spoonful to the batter and fill the
irons; do not add all the whites at
once-only a spoonful at time. 1t Is
the falling of the beaten whites that
makes waffles heavy, as well as a too
stiff batter; the batter should be al
most thin enough to pour. This can
be tried until the right consistency is
found. This recipe is sent in by Mrs.
M.
French Battercakes-Beat the yolks
of three eggs very light, with table
spoonful of sugar; to this add scant
cup and a half of sifted flour and two
teaspoonfuls of butter (measured and
then melted); beat well into a batter
with half a cup of slightly warm milk,
and add while beating quarter of a
teaspoonful of baking powder, and
then the stiffly beaten whites of the
eggs. Have the griddle very hot and
lightly creased with sweet lard; bake
the batter in small cakes, browning
each side nicely. Serve with butter,
syrup or in any way liked. Powdered
sugar may be sifted ovo them as
they are sent to the table. e. L., in

can bear without protest. Work, en-.
joyed as it should be, promotes health

The inhabitants of almost any rural
district will be found to point with
pride to the number of hale and

and centenarians living among them
as an evidence of their healthy en-
vironment and hygienic lives, while
every rich city furnishes innumuer-
able examples of unfortunate people
going to unhonored early graves
through idleness and indulgence and
the perverted and unhealthy ways of
living and killing time that idleness
induces. The normal human brain
and muscular system are able to ex-
pend a prodigious amount of energy
without suffering anil permanent de-
terioration, provided the strain is not
kept up for such time that the cen.
tres of energy become exhausted and
impaired. Men and women should
learn to know just how much energy
they can expend without causing
harmful effects to their systems, and
then they should endeavor always to

by their individual organization and

Picture and Made Rich Haul.

on returning home with his wife about
2 o'clock in the morning was attract
ed by a strange noise in the drawing
room, as if a chair was being pushed.
An examination by candle light reveal
ed nothing amiss, and a search in the
other rooms had the same result.
They returned to the drawing room,
where a large portrait of Nine. Lok-
tieff's grandfather, in the uniform of
a Uhlan officer, was standing against
the wall. The young wife glanced at
the portrait and uttering scream
rushed out of the room.
whats the matter?" asked her hus-
band, greatly surprised.
81 just thought the portrait was look
ing at me with real eyes!" answered
his wife, who was trembling violent

Her husband laughed at her childish
fears. Half an hour passed before
Nine. Loktieff came to herself, and
then remembering that she had left her
purse in the drawing room with &6
in it she took a candle and bravely
entered the room in her search for it.
A wild Shrek followed. Her husband
rushed in and found his wife lying in
a dead faint on the floor. With the
cooks help he carried his wife to bed.
While he was nursing her he told the
cook to search the room carefully, but
she did not find anything suspicious.
The next morning M. Loktieff, look
ing more closely at the portrait, found
that the eyes had been cut out and the
portrait had been moved a little from
the wall. Further investigation showed
that many valuables were missing. The
thinef had hidden himself, it seems,
behind the portrait and was watching
the couple all the time through the
eyeholes of the portrait.-London Daily
