IN FIVE MINUTES
There Will be No Stomach Misery or
Dyspepsia if You Take
Diapepsin.
ENDS ALL STOMACH MISERY
Says Diapepsin In an Absoluee Cure for
All stomach Trouble, and is at
the Drug stores Waiting
for Sufferers.

When your stomach is weak or lack
ing in gastric juice, anything that you
eat, no difference what it is, will sour
on your stomach, raise the bile and
acids to cover your food like oil on
water, causing indigestion, dyspepsia,
stomach nervousness and belching of
sour poisons, which produce foul odors,
nasty taste, bilious headache, heart
burn, intestinal gripping and make you
an object of misery. This is stomach
trouble which can not be overcome
with ordinary digestive medicines. 1t
| is caused by fermentation of your food,
which will be remedied at once by
Pape's Diapepsin,ta preparation pleas
ant to take and as harmless as candy,
though it will digest and prepare for
assimilation into the blood all the food
you eat.
Indigestion is result, not cause of
your trouble. If the stomach is sour
and unhealthy, your food becomes
tainted, and that's what is causing the
indigestion and gas on stomach and
lother miseries. Pape's Diapepsin is an
lantacld, most powerful digestive and
Thorough regulator for weak stomachs.
These triangules will digest any kind
of food you eat and will cleanse the
stomach and intestines in natural
way, which makes you feel fine five
minutes afterwards.
| Any good pharmacy here will supply
Iyou with case of Pape's Diapepsin
for SO cents. just reading about this
remarkable stomach preparation will
not help. You should go now and gel
a case. Put your stomach in full
health and by tomorrow you will for
get the misery of stomach trouble
Your case is no different from many
lothers. 1t isn't stomach nerves or ca
ltarrh of the stomach, or gastritis, OF
dyspepsia. 1t is food rotting food
fermentation = that's all = and take:
about five minutes to overcome.

Chairs that can be sat upon are =
more necessary essential than some

In the living room there must be a
softly shaded light placed low for read

TO Barbecue a Roast-Mutton
Haricot-Utilize the Cold
Meat in Pasties.

Broiled SLICED Mutton.-Cut from
the best part of cold mutton as many
thick slices as viii be needed. Mix to
gether two tablespoons Of currant
Jelly, one tablespoon Of vinegar, one
tablespoonful of The stock gravy, one
tablespoon of finely chopped onion,
two cloves, and half bay leaf. Sim
ner for FIVE minutes. Set aside, and
when cool dip each slice in it and lay
on 2 platter, pouring over all any sur
plus liquid. Turn several times IN
the course of the morning. Just be
fore lunch drain the sliced meat, dip
In melted butter, and broil slightly.
To Barbecue a Roast of Mutton
Mix a level teaspoonful of dry mus
tard, a dash of cayenne, and half
, teaspoonful of salt; work TO smooth
paste with one-third Of a cupful OF

/ tablespoons OF tomato catsup. Pre-
pare and place the joint-leg or loin-
| in the oven as usual When thorough
ly scared and beginning to color, take
out and with a sharp knife make deep
gashes all over the meat, pouring
little of the mixture into each cut.
Return the meat to the oven, and in
basting use any Of the liquid which
remains, together with the fat in the
pan.
Mutton Haricot-Dice the meat
Heat as any cold mutton. Make q
sauce with two tabIespoonfuls each OF

LORE OF THE FRYING Pm.
Fny This Method OF Cooking Is &
often Unsatisfactory.

Probably more false ecO-0-y q.
own in methods OF frying than IL
~ other form Cf cookery. Co0kin
i a little fat is not frying and amon=
.0ks is called sau-eing. a word adapt
j from the French saute, meaning 10
cook in a little fat. This method,
Ebich to the amateur seems the
easiest and is most generally prac-
uced, is what has brought the frying
pan and fried foods into just disre-
pute. 1t is almost impossible 10 heat
the fat without scorching it and to
cook in this way often means merely
10 partially burn the food.
If cooking one side of a slice OF fish,
for instance, is accomplished success

cooked side. now the upper side, cools

food. It is u-a-.-y sJraEad into the
kitchen waite. rae TACT has been
proven many Zines by carefully
weighing fat us1i and amount left
over, after both deep frying and saute-
ing, that the least is wasted in frying
in a large amount that gives complete
| immersion,
| Slices OF fish, either egged and
crumbed, or rolled N -four or meal
are fit for an eFicure when cooked IN
deep fat in a frying basket and served
unbroken. The average sauted slice
of fish needs a good deal of fixing to
make it look we'll and a robust appe
tite to enjoy its mussiness.
The best fat for frying is q question
asked almost as often as what baking
powder is the best. If we could have
olive oil cheap enough 1t would be an
ideal fat, but the best available Try
ing medium is acknowledged by ma
iority of the best cooks to be gooC

For Obstinate Peach Stains.

This is a remedy l use for obstinate
peach stains on linen, says a writer In
Good Housekeeping. Place table
spoonful of sulphur on a plate, add a
few drops of pure alcohol and ignite.
Over this place tin funnel; wet the
stain and hold over the small open
ing in the funnel. Allow the sulphur
fumes to come in contact with every
particle of the stain. The action is
quick chemical bleaching, which is
effective for any stain on white goods.
Be sure to rinse the material imme'
diately and thoroughly in weak am
monia water, then launder as usual.

Corn Starch BLANC Manae.

Stir into one quart boiling milk or
fruit juice of any sort (that from
stewed raspberries or cherries being
bes) four rounding tablespoonfuls
corn starch dissolved in little Of the
cold milk or fruit Juice. Stir until
smooth and thickened, sweeten and
favor to taste, then cook in double
boiler for an hour. Pour into small
moIds wet with cold water and set
away to cool. When ready TO serve
turn out on individual dishes and
serve cold with cream and sugar.
A pretty addition to the service OF
this pudding is to encircle each mold
as turned out on a glass or china dish
with a row of strawberries, raspber'
ries. sliced bananas or peaches. This
makes an extremely decorative and
inexpensive dessert.
