COLORED SALAD RECIPES

White pears, red cherries and green
lettuce makes a salad pleasing to eye
and palate.
Pears or apples of fine flavor make
an excellent foundation for compl-
nation fruit salad.
Fill red tomatoes with white cooked
sweet corn and serve on green lettuce
with yellow mayonnaise.
Boiled cider, lemon juice and orange
Juice may be substituted for wine IN
fancy dressing for fruit salads.
For a fancy salad quickly put TO-
gether, pack shrimps in green pepper
cups and serve with yellow mayon-
naise.
Put two slices of red tomato on a
bed of green lettuce, place small yel-
low tomato on each slice and cover
with a dressing made with whipped
cream.
For an all-green salad, boil green
string beans and serve them in cucunl-
ber boats on, a bed of green lettuce
covered with a dressing colored with
parsley.
For a white medley, use white meat
of chicken, white stalks of celery
white portions of hard boiled eggs,
little white onion and serve on white
inside leaves of lettuce, garnished with
white cherries and a dressing mixed
with beaten cream.

HOMEMADE PLACE CARDS

Novelties in place cards add much to
the fun of a luncheon, supper or an IN
formal dinner, and when necessary
play the part Of ice breakers very
well.
Bought in the shops, they add con-
siderably to the expense of the meal
but homemade novelties can often be
introduced instead with equally good
results in the way of amusement
Some of these do not require any skill
whatever with pencil or color brush.
A hostess with little to spend recent
ly made a delightfully."- clever set with
nothing more expensive than figures
clipped from magazines and adver-
tisements.
The cards used were blank white
ones, eight inches long, five deep, OBJ
tanned in a package from the stationer
At the head of each was written the
name of some guest, and below this
an original Jingle hitting off some fad
or view point of the person named
This rhyme was then illustrated with
figures carefully clipped out and neatly
mounted on the card. The woman with
a passion for pets found at her place a
card decorated with fluffy dogs and
kits, parrots, ETC., and rhyme hitting
off the same characteristics. The man
who spent his leisure in an auto
mobile was greeted with a rhyme
about the "autophiend" and pictures
of scudding motor cars.
The same idea was carried through
out, each guests likes or dislikes being
touched on in ways that made for
laughter.
Many women who can neither draw
nor paint can cut shapes acceptably
from paper, and even this medium of
talent will produce pretty place cards
at need.
Use heavy white art paper and have
the shapes in some way appropriate to
the occasion.
For patriotic holiday cut out tiny
flags or cooked hats.
For a bridal or engagement luncheon
good luck slippers or orange blossoms
For a stag affair pipes or wine
glasses.
For a farewell dinner swistikas oil
good luck clovers.

The coming of the first cool days
ought to be welcomed by the cook who
has made an effort to set an attractive
table during the long hot months of
summer. The cold, rainy days of fall
are apt to have a salutary effect upon
the tagging appetites of a pampered
family; and more than that the disap-
pearance of midsummer fruits and
vegetables is more than compensated
for by the good things which come to
take their places.
The return of the tempting oyster
alone Is enough to inspire the cook to
new resolves, and mighty culinary
purposes, not to mention the appear
ance of other shell fish which are OBJ
tainable at this time of year.
Then there are smelts which ought
not to be overlooked in the fa'l, and
which merit the cooks best effort in
the way of preparation. Too many
cooks think that the only way to ap-
proach them is with the frying pan,
but they are excellent broiled AMI
baked. If fried. let it be in the com
pany of parsley, and in the pan in
which some thinly sliced bacon has
first been cooked to a delicate brown.
But one can't alays be on the look
out for rare delicacies. Time and
money limit one to inexpensive dishes
and expeditions methods of prepara-
tion. A homely pot roast is excellent
for cool day, and just as good when
reheated for the next day If a pinch Of
interest and attention is thrown into
the pot. The attention might take the
form of a sauce made of stewed toma-
toes, onions and peppers. Try it and see
for yourself.
This is the season for peaches, ap-
pies, ounces and pears, and they ought

TO CLEAN BOTTLE INTERIORS

The interiors of water bottles, cruets,
etc, are apt to become incrusted and
frequently stained in the necks, and
to remove these there are a number of
home remedies. When the mouths are
large, potato peelings dropped into the
bottles half filled with soapsuds and
shaken will be cleansing. Tea leaves
act with the same results. A few
drops of ammonia should be used at
the same time to soften the water and
so loosen the stain. If the mouths are
small as in the case of a vinegar cruet,
so that large substances cannot be
passed, small beans, with the aid of
hot, soapy water shaken together, start
the removal of such blemishes, and If
this treatment is persevered in 1t will
entirely remove the spots. The stopper
should be placed in the cruet and its
contents shaken up and down.

THEY KNEW A THING OR TWO

There was a couple who had two
children, a boy of 16 and a girl of IA.
About that time of life another baby
came along. With that prudishness so
commonly found, the parents took the
greatest pains that the children should
NOT know anything about the condi-
tion of their mother or the impending
event, and when the time approached.
the girl was sent on vacation to some
relatives in another city. AT last the
great event took place, and the father
came and said to the boy: Johnny,
YOU have a new baby brother" The
boy said Nothing. The father sat down
at his desk and in few moments
handed the boy a telegram. "Take that
to the telegraph office" he said, 'and
send it to sister. Here is a dollar to
nav the charges The boy came back
after a while and handed his father
the change. "What," said the father,
that telegram cost more than 35 cents,
didn't it?'' "Oh, yes" the boy re-
piled, 'the one you wrote would have
cost more. 1 sent one of my own
"You did" said the father, land what
did you say?" '"Oh," the lad replied,

HENS NOT A GERMAN INDUSTRY

Germany pays comparatively little
attention to poultry raising, says a
consular report. For the greater part
of its supply of eggs and poultry the
empire is dependent upon Italy,
France, Belgium and the Balkan
states. The Imports into Germany or
eggs and poultry have increased mar
yelously since 1872, in which year the
combined imports of these two items
amounted to only $500,000 In 1880 they
had Increased to $5,000,OO0 and In
1907 49,, 7,S45, ,750 worth of imported eggs
and S12, 730, 500 worth of imported poul-
try were consumed, with exports that
same year amounting only to $S1S,5OO
for eggs and $211, ,250 for poultry.
Farming people of Germany look
upon poultry raising as an unprofita-
bic Industry, and the average German
farmer considers it a waste of money
to raise or purchase food for his hens
or to provide his fowls with satisfac-
tory quarters. Any dark corner of a
barn or stable is usually considered
amply good enough, and the fowls
must feed themselves all the food they
require. Household scraps in most
cases are fed to the hogs. 1t is need
less to say that under such conditions
poultry raising is indeed Improbable.

Pupils i'm the School of Society

lar bellies who has ever reigned in this
CITY, saws the San Antonio Express,
was asked what was her method en-
ployed in investing her daughter with
the gracious and engaging personality
for which she was noted. My precept
to my daughter was that to move in
society one must, first of all, be abso-
lutely unselfish and forgetful of SELF
replied the mother, who had practlced
as we'll as preached this beautiful
theory. And indeed her counsel may
well be taken to heart by each and
everyone. Society is meant to be en-
joyed, forsooth, not made business
of, and taken too seriously, but never
to be enjoyed at the expense of an
others feelings. Laugh and the world
laughs with you," If the joke is a
kindly and jovial one.
Then, too, one should not grow care
less in the points of courtesy that re-
quire punctilious attention, as is some
times the case, even with the most
careful. Perhaps the most frequent,
and at the same time most annoying
breach Of etiquette to the hostess, is
the failure to reply promptly to in
Vitations extended. The receiver seems
to think that If the acceptance reaches
the house the day of the entertainment
that is sufficient, and yet little re-
Election should convince the most
thoughtless of the inconvenience of
such replies to a hostess. Especially
is this true in regard to dinners, lunch
cons and card parties, where an exact
number is to be accommodated and the
desired number filled in if the regrets
and acceptances come soon enough for
an accurate estimate. With receptions
and dances the answer is almost as
imperative, as 200 invited guests must
be provided for, unless informed to
the contrary. How often has mans
slowness in response caused an anxious
heartache to a girl whose chance of
going is dependent on his acceptance,
A struggle against thoughtless selfish
ness should be the aim of every we'll
bred man and woman.

to be utilized for present serving as
well as garnered in and bottled up Tor
future use. Try baking apples, ounces
or pears with a rich sirup for long
time in casserole or bean pot. Ihey
should be baked until they take on
dark red hue and have a distinctive
rich flavor. Served with cream they
are excellent for dessert.
By the way, If you have had
busy morning canning, and there Is
cup of delicious fruit syrup lert, save
II by all means and make plate OF

When you have an apple salad 10
serve have you ever tried stuffing the
hollow side of short lengths OF celery

A delicious course for this time OF
year is a small chicken en- casserole
with peas and carrots. Each casserole
Is first rubbed with garlic, which
gives a delicious, indefinite flavor to
the whole.
Pea timbales are also excellent for a
luncheon dish. The recipe for them is
given in current magazine. 1t Is as
follows:
"Press through a sieve fresh or
canned peas till you have a cup1ul
add two beaten eggs, drop or two or
onion juice, a quarter of cup OF rich
white sauce, tablespoonful of melted
butter, and salt and cayenne to taste;
Beat well, put into small buttere1
molds, and bake in a pan of water I'LL
they are set Turn out on a not ulsH
and surround with more white sauce,
or tomato sauce, or white sauce with
chopped oysters in it,"
Another good vegetable dish is sweet
potato shells. To prepare them boil
six even good sized sweet potatoes and
mash while hot; season we'll with salt
and pepper and moisten with cream
till they are like pastry; then line but
tered tin patty pans and bake In a pan
of water till firm; have ready some
creamed corn or peas, and heap the
shells with this

m HE school of society is reckoned
as, perhaps, the best place for
II learning all the little courtesies
and etiquette that make up the we'll
bred man or woman. Ease, tact and
charm are gained in the constant gilt
edged intercourse with the refinements
of life, and the companionship of ac-
complished members Of society.
A cultured, gracious woman diffuses
an atmosphere of refinement around
her that is unconsciously absorbed by
others less gifted in her arts of enter
tainment. Self-possession is deVel-
oped in the drawing room, at the ban
ouet board and in the mazes of the
cotillon.
Conversational powers increase by
constant association with brilliant
takers. In proportion as 'evil COM
munications corrupt good manners
does the mingling with genuine Ia
dies" and gentlemen in the accept
ed terms of the words refine and pol
ish even the most crude and boorlsn
climbers in the social realm.
Timidity, that awful bane of youths
and maidens just entering upon their
social careers, is quickly and e1ec-
lively cured in the merry company OF
tactful associates. When Belinda
bushes are pronounced lovely they
cease to pain her, and when John
faltering speeches meet with sympa-
thetic appreciation and encouraging
smiles he no longer hesitates, but for
gets himself in the eyes of his charm
ing companion.
Undoubtedly this training school for
manners is a wholesome and bene-
fetal institution, which should receive
Justice for it's advantages to the hu-
man family. But it should always be
the care and desire of its members
and followers to keep a high standard
of politeness; not forgetting, as is Oft
times the temptation, the simple but
comprehensive Golden Rule, DO unto
others as you would have them do to
you"

It's the word of cheer
From a friend sincere
Makes him feel lifes not in vain.

And the luckess barque
Is drifting from safety's strand,
Why God bless the man
And the woman who then
Hold to us a helping hand.
When you're out Of luck
And you're out of pluck
And the fight don't seem worth while,
What will give you heart
To do your part?
Why, a hanclasp and a smile;
So when all is black
And we've lost the track
In a world we can't understand.

There are all kinds of sauces-lemon
sauce to pour over dry cake, mint
sauce for roast lamb, parsley and but
ter sauce for meat, tartar sauce for
oysters, etc.
A sauce that is served with broiled
steak is made with the acid juice
saved from a can of tomatoes. This
is boiled with bay leaf, parsley and

with butter and sometimes slightly

A fish sauce is made with melted
butter, lemon juice and fine ground
parsley, seasoned with white pepper
and salt 1t is served either in the
shell of hard boiled egg or placed
in a little paper patty pan for the
purpose.
Lemon or orange sauce is made like
thin blanch mango, chilled, and
poured over cake. 1t can be made per-
fectly white if the yolk of eggs are
not used. Some merely use lemon
juice, water, butter and cornstarch,
slightly sweetened. This makes a clear
sauce.
An onion sauce is tempting on some
meat. The onions are fried brown, re-
moved from the pan and stock is
added to the grease, with mustard and

BIG LEAGUERS
TO MEET HERE
Henry Berry Instrumental in Arrang-
Ing for Fast Mines to Play Before
Local Fans-Blg Crowds
Are Expected

For the first time in the history Of
baseball in Los Angeles two major
league teams will play before the An
gel City bleacherites. The All-Nation-
ais, which walloped the Angels in the
series two weeks ago, and the crack
Athletics will play at least two games
in the south, according to arrangements
made yesterday by President Henry
Berry Of the Los Angeles club, and
we'll appearance of the eastern teams
in the west. Both aggregations having
appeared in Los Angeles against the
Dillonites, their members are well
known, and as this is the only appear
ance of the teams in rivalry, the work
of several of the former Coast leaguers
against men of their own caliber will
be of general interest.
One game will be played at Chutes
park, and December IL has been Sc
iected as the date for this game. The
other game arranged will be played at
Pasadena on December IL, at the Tour
nament park These two contests will
mark the unofficial close of the pro-
fessional baseball season in the south,
and will also afford the southern fans
their only opportunity OF seeing the
two eastern teams together. Frank
Bancroft, manager of the All-Nationals,
yesterday sent word to Berry that the
games in the north will be concluded
December 5, and the two teams will
start south on the first leg of their re-
turn trip to their home precincts.
In addition to the two games already
scheduled, the teams are planning for
additional contests in several other
towns. 1t is probable games will be
played at Santa Ana, San Diego and
Riverside, and if there is time other
games will be scheduled at Chutes park.
No definite date has been set for the
departure of the teams for the east,
but they will be off about the middle OF
December
