ditional taxation Thus the supporters
of the SeideI-McIntyre ticket declare
that while those on the opposition
ticket are good men, there has no
exigency arisen that should warrant
a change in the present non-partisan,
representative makeup of the board.
One Polling Place as Usual.
There will be but one polling place
for the election, Tricks livery barn,
and the judges and clerks of that pre-
cinos will preside. The polls are to
open at s o'clock. and remain open
until o'clock in the evening. The
prospects are that the heaviest vote
in years at school election will be
polled, in view of the fact that there
are two tickets in the field.

Casserole.

The term casserole applies -, two
very different modes of cooking 1t
all depends on whether one refers tc
the method of preparation and cook.
ing the food or the dish used On the
process. Casserole is the old French
name for saucepan of heavy brown
and white earthenware, well glazed
inside and out and having tight
fitting cover. The Japanese also have
dish of heavy china which they use
for the same purpose. 1t differs
somewhat in form from the French
dish, but the same principles applies
to its use. In this dish the native
cooks prepare the most delectable
baked stews of sweetbreads, chicken,
game, etc.
At a recent dainty little French
luncheon iris de veaux petits pois
was served in little individual silver
casseroles, the lids fastened on with a
bow of ribbon corresponding with the
color scheme.
The general utility of these disnes
appeals to the American housewife
more than the fact that they are of
French or Japanese origin, and they
are gaining rapidly in popularity.
A very different proposition, how
ever, is the casserole mold-a baked
shape of boiled rice or potato,
mashed, .easoned, and when shaped
followed out and filled with a ragout
or mince, the outside decorated,
brushed over with egg and Drowned.
Cassolettes are the same thing, only
smaller cup-shaped cases are used for
holding meat preparation or sweet
filling. These are usually dipped and
fried, but can be prepared by bak-
ing. These forms are familiar to
most housewives under the guise of
chicken in rice or potato mold.-Bos.

Dressing Salads.

Most salads should be dressed just
before serving, whether French dress
ing or mayonnaise is used. Celery
or lettuce willis If left in oil and
vinegar. Celery shoule not even be
washed long before serving, as it
becomes rusty. Potato salad, how
ever, is an exception to the rule.
Potatoes take up large quantities of
oil and need to be very well mixed
with whatever dressing is used. Sal
ads made of greens should always
be served crisp and cold. Canned or
cold cooked leftover vegetables are
we'll utilized in salads, but are best
mixed with French dressing, and
should be placed in the refrigerator
an hour or so before serving. Meats
for salads should be freed from skin
and gristle, cut into small pieces, and
allowed to stand with French dress
ing before combining with vegetables.

St. Petersburg Grows Gay.

So strong is the spirit OF gayety
this season in st. Petersburg that
there is much talk of reviving that
dream of sumptuous glory, the
boyard fete of 1903. declared to be
the most magnificent court spectacle
OF modern times. The boyards were
the old Russian mobiles of the time of
Ivan the Terrible, and for the fete of
1903 costumes and jewels were worn
that were worth millions. A dozen
women spent fortnight in sewing
jewels on the costume of the Czarina,
who represented the first wife of
Car Alexis MichaeloTitch. The dress
weighed over sixty pounds, and has
never been worn since.-The Ar

Meat Croquettes.

Put the meat through cutter.
Any kind will do. Put your onion
through with the meat; mince (
bunch of parsley and season with a
little red pepper and salt. If they are
not well seasoned they are not good.
For quart of meat l take a half
cup of milk, put it on the stove,
thicken with cornstarch and mix with
the meat. When cool, form either
into cone shape or into round cakes.
Dip into bread crumbs, then an egg;
have deep boiling fat, as for dough-
nuts. Boil until brown wire sieve
is good for frying.
Sometimes l put mashed potatoes
with the meat. If these are made
right they are splendid. NJ. r.,

A Red Lip Season.

Lips will be of deep rich red this
season. Hips, as a topic, have had
their day, and despite all the die
tates of Paquin, women seem to be
as hipless or "hipful" as they were
before. The prophets could make
only conjectures in regard to hips.
1t remained to be seen what the New
York woman would do. But the
writer has seen the lips, and unlike
all the talk about hips, can say that
the deep rich red is the latest fad.
The majority of the women whose
lips looked as though done with pure
crimson madden from the tube were

for me; he knew | cared not for

was determined to try this last most
fatal expedient. l would fain ask

However, l am afraid she would
think this presumption after my suf-
fering the other to get spoiled. If
you think you can excuse me to her
for this would be glad if you would
ask her," AS the letter continues, he
writes: you cannot conceive the
satisfaction it would give me to have
letter from you. Write me very
circumstantially everything which
happened at the wedding. Was she
there? Because if she was, ought
to have been at the devil for not
being there, too" He closes with

Chicken With Oysters. - Boil a
chicken until tender, crumb up your
bread. pour over it the broth from

one quart of oysters to the bread

A Delicious Confection.-Popcorn
mixed with nuts makes a delicious
confection. Take a cup of chopped
pecans to about two quarts of freshly
popped corn. Put two cups of sugar
into kettle or frying pan, place over
the fire, and when melted add two
tablespoonfuls of molasses, a large
lump of butter, and pour over the
corn, stirring constantly. The syrup
should be cooked until it begins TO
string, or CONCEAL, when dropped into
cold water.
Potatoes Baked in Milk.-Pare and
cut in thin slices crosswise one dozen
potatoes, slice two large onions, and
add about one-half cupful of finely
chopped fresh parsley. Put the whole
into a granite pudding dish and cover
with milk, putting pieces of butter on
top. Bake in hot oven for one-half
hour. Salt and pepper should be
added when served, as the milk is
apt to curdle if it is added before
cooking. This recipe is also good il
canned tomatoes are used instead OF
milk.
Almond-Drop Cookies.-Beat two
eggs lightly; gradually beat in one
cupful of sugar; then two ounces of
chocolate melted over hot water, one
and one-half cupfuls of blanched al
monds chopped fine, and a teaspoon,
full of vanilla extract. Sift together
three times one cupful of -four, one
level teaspoonful of baking powder
and half teaspoonful each of salt
and cinnamon, and stir into the nut
mixture. Drop by the teaspoonful
onto buttered baking sheet to make
little rounds of dough. Bake in a
moderate oven. This recipes makes
about three dozen little cakes.
