Inc IIue Hone

Home building means more than
building a house. The home is the
center of the affections, and there must
be common thoughts, common IN
terests, common love revolving around
this center.
We may love nature; we may enjoy
travel, but we never feel quite sat s.
fed unless there is one place to which
we may go, where common interests
born of love give us a sense of possess
sion
We may have only a room, but the
things with which we have surrounded
ourselves, the books we love, the pic
lures of which we are fond, the things
belonging to us, make that place home.
The man of high descent may love
the halls and lands of his inheritance
as a part of himself, as trophies of his
birth and power, Dickens says, but, he
adds, the poor mans attachment to
the tenement he holds, which strangers
have held before and may again, has
worthier root, struck deep into
purer soil. His household gods are of
flesh and blood, with no alloy of silver,
gold or precious stones. He has no
property, but i'm the affections of his
own heart; and when they endear bare
floors and walls, despite of toll and
scanty meals, that man has his love
of home from God, and his rude hut
becomes a solemn place.
Are you not surprised to find how in
dependent of money peace of con-
science is, and how much happiness
can be condensed in the humblest
home? A cottage will not hold the
bulky furniture and sumptuous ac-
commodations of mansion but If God
be there a cottage will hold as much
happiness as might stock a palace
Dr. James Hamilton.
The English housekeeper of moderate
means is said to pay more attention to
the recooking of cold meat than the
American. The secret of her success
lies in not allowing meat cooked "A see
Cnd time to come to boiling heat, and
in the choice and method i'm regard to
it. For instance, cold boiled meat does
not hash well. but makes excellent fric-
assess, or ii is good served with sauce,
or minced. Good roast meat is best
recooked. either as hash. or in the case
of rare roast beef, grilled with onions
like steak.

INEXPENSIVE DISHES

A cheap dish nicely arranged to
please the eye as well as the appetite
is what woman aim for today. The
following arrangements are very nice:
Braised beef surrounded with but
tered Ged) kidney beans, placed on d
plain china platter.
Roast of beef garnished with lemon,
parsley and latticework from thin
slices of cucumbers.
Small roast or rolled steak with
bread filing, surrounded with rice and
pimolas.
Roast beef, pork or round of salmon,
surrounded with long strips of cooked
macaroni. woven into a pretty shape
with hot tomato sauce poured over all.
Beef veal or chicken croquettes,
served with thin slices of lemon, with
fresh celery tips in the top of each
croquettes.
Boiled potato balls and parsley make
suitable garnsh around Hungarian

tables. boiled in stock.

MUCH MILK WASTED

There is no real necessity for the
waste of milk that goes on i'm many
households in city and country The
uses of milk are manifold, and saving
means only a little matter of looking
into the variety of ways in which it
may be used.
Eggs poached i'm milk are more deli
cate for the family and more nourish-
ing for the invalid, says an expert
nurse, Breakfast rolls dipped in milk
before relocating in the oven are made
much more crisp and desirable. A
very dry loaf of bread soaked in milk
and then rebaked will be so rejuven-
ated as to become almost a freshly
baked loaf.
For the dyspeptic member of the
family bread on which fast boiling milk
Is poured will not be an indigestable
supper.
Indian meal should be boiled with
milk as a healthy supper for little
children, and eaten with cream as a
fat-producing diet for too thin chill
dren.
Rice and farina boiled in milk are
more nourishing than the ca~elessly
thrown toqether cereals cooked in wat

mush. milk or half milk as .mois

Mornings milk yields more cream
than evenings, and that taken at
noon yields least of all.
