START DAY RIGHT
WITH APPETIzING DISHES ON
BREAKFAST TABLE.
Some Varieties Of Breads and Puffs
That Can Be Depended On
Selection of Flour Is Most
important


Despite the many varieties Of break
tass breads which the bakeshop
around the corner offers, the thrifty
housewife still bRkes her own dsinties.
The success or failure Of baking break
tast breads depends largely upon the
nour used. as some brands OF -four
make good pastry, other brands will
make better bread dough. This is
to be found out only by experience.
1t Is almost impossible to get a xood.

Two eggs. white and yolks together.
and add to them two CUPS Of milk.
INTO this sift two large cups OF -four.
TO which has been added two tea
spoons OF baking powder. Add to the

which have bean washed and picked
over. Bake on a thick iron griddls
u the shape Of griddle cakes and cook
slowly. Spread the cakes with butter
and sprinkle with sugar. Pile FIVE on
q large plate In the manner OF a LAYER
cake and cut in wedss-shaped pieces
and serve piping hot.
PoPoVers.-The great secret OF
successful popovers is to have the bat
ter thin. Just as soon as you make q
thick batter you have mullins instead
OF popovers. They should be baked
u heavy oups-the Scotch ware being
TIE best. without separating the
whites and yolks, beat together two
eggs and add to them one pint of milk.
In another deep bowl put half q pint
OF -four and q liberal dash Of salt

KILLING Cahhaaa Odor.

Cabbage may be boiled without
emitting that Objectionable odor by
placing big peeled onion into the
midst Of the cabbage and on top slices
OF stale bread cut thick.
Do not add too much water to the
cabbage at one time, or It will soak
the bread and cause it to separate and
mix with the cabbage, but, rather, add
water from time to time in course OF
the boiling process.
Upon the back OF the stove, where It
will Just simmer, set a small vessel
containing vinegar and sugar.
The bread and onion absorb the
odor, and the vinegar and sugar are q
precaution to make assurance doubly
sure.

COLORS OF NAMES
SAN FRANCISCO WOMAN HAS Pc.
cULIAR SENSE.
Some Proof That symboIIsts Who
Claim to See Things IN Color
and Color in Things May
Be Right

mere Is woman in San Francisco
VINO has always from earliest child
noou been able to see names in color.
When hear a name 1 see fits color
and 1 have always done so as far back
as my recollection extends. When 7
was small child used to see the
color In vivid fash, but after had
learned to read 1 began to see the
name printed in color, and am still
able to do So
When asked TO give concrete ex-
amples Of how names looked. she re-
piled:
Mary Is the whitest name-pure
snow white. Hilda and Alma are
white names. but tinged with yellow
creamy white. Anna. Emma and
Margaret are pale yellow. Laura Is
golden Elizabeth and Edith are light
blue. Nellie is deep blue. Kate and
Helen are pink. while Florence ia
deep, rosy red. Bertha, Pauline and
Elsie are pale lilac, Susan and Julia
deep lavender. while Louisa is rich
royal purple. Some names are dark
ana somoer and suggest brown and
Oro"nlsn red shades. Such are Jose
prime, Sarah and Joanna. A name and
its oiminutiVe are not always OF the
same color For instance. Elizabeth
Is light blue, while Bessie IA one Of
Ine brown names. The color 1850
cation has nothing to do with the
sound. so far as have been able TO
discover. Names like Gladys. Edna
and Hazel, which 1 never heard In
childhood. as they belong to a newer
fashion In nomenclature. nevertheless
when nrst heard had their appropri
ate colors. Gladys appeared amber
yellow, Edna blush lavender and Ha-
Eel pale yellowish brown. Masculine
names have also their oolors. John
10 dark reddish brown. George light
REQ Henry medium yellow. Harry
lighter yellow, Thomas pink, Charles
and William blue, Alfred white, Rob
ert red and Paul lavender.
Strange to say, 1 have never seen
green name, and yet green Is
color to which 1 am very partial and
which affords me great delight.
All my life I have been much tas-
cnated by color and its associations.
One OF my earliest amusaments was to
COPY the pieces of descriptive poetry
found in the old time school readers.
In doing so /. following a rule of my
own, used TO begin the names Of col
ors with capital letters. When taken
70 task for thus violating the rule
ON the subject, my defense was that
the words were so pretty they ought
TO be thus distinguished.
The symbolists have been ridiculed
for their claim to see things in color
and color In things. but really there
Is something more than mere non,
sense in their pretensions."
