Chicken Gambalayah.

To two cups of cold boiled rice, add
one cup of cold chicken, or fowl of
any sort, two tablespoonfuls of minced
ham, breakfast bacon or sausage, three
tablespoonfuls of tomatoes, one onion,
sliced and lightly fried in bacon grease
or lard Mix the entire mass with
the hands, season to taste with red and
black pepper, any of the kitchen herbs
on hand, even tiny bit of thin lemon
peel adds to its piquaney. Turn the
whole mass into a hot fryingpan. in
which are two tablespoonfuis of hot
grease. Turn it over and over, cover
closely, let it cook ten minutes and
serve steaming hot.
/. Chicken and Rice.
Joint and fry the uncooked fowl. to-
gether with two sliced onions. To this
add three quarts of cold water, two
cups of tomatoes, one slice of ham or
bacon, three cups of raw rice, together
with the seasoning, save salt, and cook
until chicken and rice are perfectly
tender. When done, there should be
no liquid left in the pot, though the
rice must be little moist. Add salt
after the chicken begins to be tender.
Rice and Tomatoes.
To one cup of boiled rice, put one
cup of stewed, well seasoned tomatoes.
Fry one sliced onion lightly in one
tablespoonful of bacon greese. Add
the tomatoes, stir well and put in the
rice, cook ten minutes and serve.
Duck, turkey, roast veal, pork, beef,
oysters, shrimp, crabs, erayfish, ham,
bacon, sausage, tomatoes and cold red
beans, may all be used singiy or in
combination with rice, for gambalayah.
Upon the seasoning depends much of
the piqancy of this dish.
It is common mistake to suppose
that sayory seasoning provokes indl-
gestion. There is more danger in pies
and crude "plain' cooking, than there
is in all the delightful, well seasoned
Creole dishes put together

Rice In Various
Forms
! NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ai


As food for young children and
old people, rice is valuable, being nutri-
tious, easily digested and palatable. In
Louisiana no dinner table is consider
ed complete without rice, either plain
boiled or in combination with meat, or
fowl, or fish, or herbs.
Plain Boiled Rice.
Wash thoroughly one-half pint of
rice in cold water, by rubbing it vigor-
ously between the palms. This is to
free it from the -four that may adhere
to the grain. Drain well, and set it
to boil in tWo-quarts of cold, slightly
sailed water. Boil until tender, but
not thoroughly cooked. Pour off all the
water, put rice into a colander, set it
over a pot OF boiling water, cover the
rice with a lid of some sort, and let it
steam until perfectly cooked. Inc
grains viii be separate and will have
swollen to twice their natural size.
Serve hot in covered dish. Never let
rice soak a moment in water before
cooking it. Never stir it while cook.

Rice Gambalayah.
Pronounce it as if spelled "jomber-

this simple, but savory Creole dish. 1t

mends itself to all who ever taste it.
1t is economical because it utilizes
those remnants which are not enough
to make hash, but which should not
be east aside.

Waterville, Me. April 15.-(Special.)-
The following statement has been is
sued by the Christian Civic League OF
Maine:
The Christian Civic League. which
held it's annual meeting in Waterville
Wednesday, April IA, has been for IL
sears an active and aggressive force
for civic righteousness in Maine. This
| organization is to be congratulated on
it's effective efforts and the marked
,hange in crystalized public sentiment.
| n the enforcement of law, and in the
general advance in civic Righteousness
that has occurred during the past II
years. In producing this gratifying
,ivic Improvement in our State the
Christian League has had an active and
helpful part. During the past year the
'eague has had three secretaries active
" engaged III furthering it's purpose.
Rev. IL. N. .Pringle became a secre-
tary of the league in 1901, July l. He
was introduced as a wise, careful,
gainstaking, systematic worker, one
who would greatly assist in furthering
civic righteousness.
For nearly eight years he has
wrought untiringly. patiently, effective
ly in the work of the league, and
has made a host of friends throughout
the State, and, be it said to his credit,
some enemies. His courage in his work,
his fidelity to his convictions, his kind
ly spirit in opposing w-breakers, his
lack of malice in speech and in writing
have all steadily increased the respect
and confidence of the league for him
and their appreciation for his work
And his unanimous and enthusiastic
reelection as secretary attests the con-
tinued confidence of the league, and
the esteem in which he is held.
Mr.. Pringle's associate workers for
the past year have been Rev. Israel
Luce and Edward H. Emery
Mr.. Luce was an honored minister in
the Methodist Episcopal church, wide
ly known and greatly beloved. He was
remarkably tactful and skillful as a
personal worker, possessed a marked
business ability, and was persuasive
speaker. He devoted himself unstinted-
" to the league work until some
months ago when he fell asleep, to the
great sorrow and loss of the league
and his fellow workers.
Mr. Emery is layman who has long
identified himself with civic reform,
and has always been a sane vigorous
and uncompromsing foe Of lawless-
ness He is an excellent speaker and
tactful worker. Under these expert
enced workers. and doubtless with eff
ficient reinfOrcements the good work of
the Christian Civic League will go
steadily on.
