no reply. Look y here, what ais you
anyway" The old soldier placed his
hand on the merchants shoulder and
turned him into a vacant room ON the
side Of the hall, a room used by COM
meraial travellers for displaying their
wares to the village storekeepers.
Hillyer sank into a chair and groaned.
Truitt heard some one passing in tho
hail and closed the door.

voice, his lips %quivering as he spoke.

THE MENU RECIPES.

White cornmeal lacks the richness
of yellow meal and in making pones,
cakes and the like, more butter and
eggs should be supplied to a recipe.
4 corn pore, however, is finer n
richer when made of yellow meal, if a
little white meal is mixed with it.
Breakfast cakes are excellent when
made of white meal, but more eggs
should be added. Put milk in the water
that mush is made of and it will
brown more quickly when fried.
Apple sauce.
Put one cup of sugar on to cook
with one quart of water. Pare, core
and cut into eighths or quarters
enough apples to make one quart.
Drop apples into hot syrup. cover and
cook rather gently until apples are
tender and transparent, but not mushy.
Cocoon Tapioca Pudding.
One good ~teaspoenful of cocoa dis
solved in a little warm milk. one-half
cup sugar, one half cup tapioca: mix
both together; put one pint milk IN
double boiler; when warm put in cocoa
ana then tapioca and sugar. Let cook
Tor fifteen minutes; take from fire and
flavor with two teaspoons of vanilla.
Set away to cool. Serve with cream.
Before cooking canned goods place in.
a colander n drain off all juice and
rinse with cold water. The seasoning
must be supplied with good fresh ut
ter, milk. salt and pepper. Leave no
canned goods in a can that has been
pened Remove at once. This may
rob the vegetables of some food value,
but It'll safest and best to do so.
