SIMPLE FOODS
The VERY BEST

To be able to cook and serve a
good meal Is both an art and sci
|ence.
In discussing the reason why
the Trained Cook Often Fails" a
teacher of the domestic art recent
ly deplored the fact that old
fashioned dishes, such as our
grandmothers prepared, are being
put away for the more elaborate
menus.
1--WE seldom see creamed cod
fish, doughnuts, gingerbread or
corn bread on the menus these
days." she said. Simple cooking
is the kind that is wholesome.
Learn to make good soup and to
bake good bread. The trained
cook in preparing fancy dishes
often overlooks the simple foods,
and fails.
take rice, for instance. 1t is
such a wholesome food, but not
one in many knows how to cook it
properly. Very often you see II
cooked SO that 1t clings together
and 1t can be cut with a knife.
ITO cook it properly use plenty
of water, so that when 1t is cooked
each flake will be thoroughly
cooked, and the rice will be light
and flaky. When you wish rice
to look particularly white, drain
it in a colander and run cold water
over it to remove the starch. This
leaves it beautiful and snowy"

MRS. DAPPLED GRAY CAT

Mrs, Dappled Gray lived in the
barn where the hay was stored
with her three little kittens. One
kittie was black, and one white
and one was gray, just like his
mamma cat.
When they got big enough to
open their eyes, Mrs. Dappled
Gray told her kittens all about
the lovely big house and the milk
and bread which they should have
when they got big enough to &c
there for their meals as she did.
Every time Mamma Cat came
back from the house she told the
kittens about the lovely romp she
had with the baby and how sunny
and nice 1t was there, till they
could hardly wait to go and see 1t
all for themselves.
One day Mamma Cat said, 81
have found a nice new home for
you in q very large trunk where
some old clothes are kept; and I
think we will move in at once. "
Then she picked up black kittie
and walked right out of the barn
with him in her mouth. Mamma
Cat went right into the hall up
stairs and dropped black kittie in
to the open trunk there. Then
she started back for white kittie.
But what do you think! The
lady who owned the trunk came
out and seeing it open shut it
with a bang. She did not know
that a dear little fat kitten was
shut up in there.
Oh, how terribly frightened
Mamma Cat was when she came
back with white kittie! She
scratched and clawed the trunk
and rushed to the lady who was
playing with her baby in another
room. "Mee-ow, mee-ow! You

For, after all. who is any more
a slave than the poor bride who
insists on big wedding? As soon
as she has made the momentuous
decision there is no drawing back.
She becomes the toss-ball of GUS
tom.
At first there's the expensive
trOusseau. For whoever heard
of a wedding and no gowns to
amuse the brides best friends?
So she works gown and thinks
gown till she is half dead.
Then there are the fine distinc-
lions to draw between who goes to
the, house and who goes to the
church. And something must be
devised for mother to wear. Be-
sides the gas must be burned low
and the heat cut of to save Tor
the decorations.
Added to these depressions the
poor girl must go to all the show
ers and parties given in her honor,
so that she sends down hearache

groom-to-be huddles detected in
an unused corner or goes OF In
search of pleasanter places. Next

have reached the altar.
And the wedding itself. The
bride Is a wreck and knows 1t.
The suppressed "She never looked
worse In her life" that she sees in
the eyes of congfiratulators causes
more tears than the last goodbye
to her mother.
Oh, the woe that wedding can
make. The money invested would
furnish a home. The strength
invested would keep any woman's
spirits above the fretting line for
years to come. And the hours of
that courtship time wasted in
scheming and dickering that
ought to be the most light-heart-
ed and sweetest time of a wom-
ans life are gone never to be
conjured back again.
Is 1t worth it, or do you agree

against her dress.
The lady saw Mamma Cat jump
up on the trunk and scratch it
with her sharp claws. What can
the matter be?" said the lady;
and she opened the trunk. There
cuddled up in the clothes was
black kittie sound asleep.
Before the lady could ask
Mamma Cat a single question she
had picked up black kittie out of
the trunk and started for the old
home and the barn.
When she got the three babies
back in the hay Mrs. Dappled
Gray Cat told them that the
house was very nice place to go
to, but the barn was the best
home to bring up little kitties.
