FISH EN- CASSEROLE.

Haddock or cod is specially nice
for this, selecting, if cod, the middle
cut, weighing about two and a half
pounds. Remove the skin and place
in the casserole, covering with pre-
pared sauce made in this way:
Heat a pint of milk in saucepan
with a sliced onion, two tablespoon
fuls parsley, blade of mace, little
grated yellow peel of lemon and salt
and pepper to season; simmer gently
twenty minutes, then strain; put in
a saucepan three tablespoonTuls but
ter and a little less quantity of flour.
When hubby add the strained milk,
a little at time, stirring constantly;
cook until smoothly thickened, then
add to the fish.
Cover with a thick piece of oiled
paper, adjust the cover of the casse-
role and bake about half an hour in
a moderate oven. When done re-
move the paper, add a little lemon
juice and a sprinkling of fresh pars-
ley and serve.-Washingt Star.

COFFEE CAKE.

One hour before using put to soak
in warm (not hot) water yeast
cake. Sift into an earthenware bowl
about two and one-half quarts flour,
make cavity in centre and drop in one
cup butter or butter and lard mixed,
one cup graduated or light-brown
sugar, three or four eggs, one tea
spoon each cinnamon and salt, and
a little nutmeg. Add yeast cake and
sufficient warm milk to have rather
stiff dough. Cover with cloth and
set in warm place over night and by
morning it ought to be risen enough
to make into cake. Cut off pieces OF
the dough, roll out as thick or as thin
as you please, allowing for it to rise
again, put in creased bread or pie
pans, brush over with melted butter
and sprinkle with sugar and CHINA
mon. Cover, set in warm place to
rise and bake in moderate oven.
This dough can be made richer or
sweeter according to taste and may
be used as the foundation for several
other kinds of cake, all delicious

CHANGE IN FOOD
Works Wonders in Health.

1t is worth knowing that a change
in food can cure dyspepsia. Il deem
it my duty to let you know how
Grape-Nuts food has cured me of indi-
gestion.
Il had been troubled with it for
years, until last year my doctor rec
commended Grape-Nuts food to be used
every morning. l followed instruc-
lions and now / am entirely well.
"The whole family like Grape-Nuts,
we use four packages week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial as
you see fit.
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-NUts food is that it
is predigested by natural processes.
and therefore does not tax the stom-
ach as the food she had been using;
it also contains the elements required
for building up the nervous system.
If that part of the human body is in
perfect working order there can be
no dyspepsia, for nervous energy rep
resents the steam that drives the en-
CINE.
When the nervous system is run
down, the machinery of the body
works badly. Grape-Nuts food can
be used by small children as well as
adults. 1t is perfectly cooked and
ready for instant use.

interest.

COMPLAINTS ABOUT PAINT.

The time to complain about paint
is before the painter applies it. The
man who puts up the money should
not shirk the responsibility of choos-
ing the paint. True, the painter
ought to know paint better than the
banker, the professional man or the
merchant. The trouble is, the house
owner too often deliberately bars the
competent and honest painter from
the job by accepting bid which he
ought to know would make an honest
job impossible.
Secure your bids on the basis of
National Lead Company's pure White
Lead and pure Linseed Oil and see
that you get these materials.
No one need be fooled by adulter-
ated white lead. A blowpipe testing
outfit will be mailed to anyone inter-
ested in paint.

Do not put soda in candy, it makes

Never break eggs on the edge of

it is much easier.

Melted butter is a good substitute

In cleaning ribbons it is better not

Discolored cups and dishes used

When vegetables cook dry and

taste very little, if any, of the scorch-
ing.
The bowl of the spoon should be
tipped toward the outer edge of the
soup dish not toward the centre, and
soup should be eaten only from the
side of the spoon. Use the fork with
the right hand by all means.
Hold the point of a new pen over
a lighted match to remove the lac

with a drop of oil or grease to pre-
vent it's rusting in the holder.
Celery should be broken apart be-
fore eating. Only the small inner
stalks should be placed on the table.
If the larger stalks are served they
should be cut or broken before they
are placed on the table. The person
eating the celery should break it into
short lengths, but not into such
small pieces that it is not necessary
to bite it.

Animals And Rain.

Lions, tigers and all the cat tribe
dread rain said zoo keeper. lon
a rainy day they tear nervously up
and down their cages, growing and
trembling. We usually give them
an extra ration of hot milk. That
puts them to sleep.
Evolves love a gray day of rain.
They are then very CHEEKY. Treach-
erous as the wolf is, no keeper need
fear him on a rainy day. He is too
happy to harm fly.
Snakes, too, like rain. They perk
I'D wonderfully as the barometer falls
and the damp makes itself felt in
their warm cases.
Rain makes monkeys glum. They
are apt from instinct, when they
see it through the window, to clasp
their hands above their heads and
sit so for hours That attitude, you
know, makes d kind of shelter. 1t
is the primitive umbrella
