Banana Mold.

Take two cupfuls of milk, half a
cupful of cream, three eggs, one extra
yolk, five bananas, four tablespoonfuls
of sugar, two tablespoonfuls of gela-
tine, half cupful of boiling water
and one teaspoonful Of lemon juice.
Dissolve the gelatine in boiling water.
Just cook the milk, eggs and sugar to-
gether until thick, but not boil, or It
will curdle. Rub the bananas through
a sieve, stir them into the custard
with the gelatine and lemon juice
Pour into a wet mold and let stand
until firm. Serve with sweetened
whipped cream.
Bananas are delicious baked. Peel,
out in halves, lay on granite baking
dish that has been we'll buttered, bake
until tender, basting occasionally with
two tablespoonfuls each of melted
butter and sugar, and one tablespoon
full Of lemon juice.
Banana cake is a great favorite with
the children, using sweetened
whipped cream and sliced bananas
for the filling of any layer cake.
Bananas may be cooked in batter
for a fritter. Served with lemon sauce
such dish may be used as an en-
tree or as a dessert.

A Ten.cent Sour Bone

OF course the size of the bone and
the amount of meat on 1t depends
upon the generosity of the butcher;
but one usually gets her money value
when investing in a soup bone.
Get one with as much meat on it as
possible, have the bone cracked so
that the marrow may be removed II
wanted for marrow balls. When there
is nice thick meat on the bone, sew
eral pieces may be cut off, enough for
a small stew, which If cooked very
slowly in casserole or f1reless cooker,
with vegetables, makes a very tasty
dish, the small amount of meat being
sufficient to give flavor to the dish.
A bean pot may be used In place of a
casserole, as 1t answers the same pur-
pose. Another way to serve these
pieces of meat cut from the bone is
to roll them in -four and cook in a
little fat until brown, then add water
and cook slowly until tender; the -four
and seasonings will make a sauce.
Serve with this, strained tomato with
q AlIllC CClCIy anu ChOppCu lluS
cook until thick, and pour, strained,
over the meat after 1t is arranged on
the serving dish.
The meat from the soup bone after
1t is cooked, should never be thrown
away, for the nutritive value Is there
very little of 1t but the extractives
and the soluble albumen going into
the soup. AS the favor is gone we
supply that to the meat in various
ways, by seasoning.
Various dishes may be made of the
soup meat, such as hash, meat loaf,
croquettes, escalloped dishes, with diff
ferent vegetables.
In these days of high prices we must
learn to use the cheaper meats, sup
plying the table with a variety of
wholesome food with smaller amounts
of meat. The combining of meats
with other foods to make them &C
farther is both economy and wisdom
for We certainly need less meat than
the usual family thinks necessary.

MILLIONS ADDED TO REVENUE
Conference Agrees on Measure to
Place $1,2oo,ooo in Buckeye
State Treasury

Columbus, O.--Ohio revenues will
be increased $1,200,OOO annually by
the Langdon tax commission bill,
as it will be reported by the confer
ence committee. Members of the COM
mittee completed their work and
agreed to a unanimous report.
Half of the added revenue will come
from the senate increase in the Willis
capital stock tax of 3-20 of per cent
The rest will be raised by the revised
Cole excise tax on earnings Of utility
corporations. To avoid constitu-
tional risk the tax is confined to re-
ceipts from intrastate business. Rail
roads and pipe line companies will
pay 4 per cent, express and telegraph
companies 3 per cent and all other
utilities 1-2 per cent. The rate now is
l per cent on all Ohio receipts from
all classes of business. Railroads will
pay on gross earnings. Everything
else will continue to pay on gross re-
ceipts. The report of the committee
will be presented as a substitute bill.
1t will Re printed before members Of
the legislature return for the final
session.

Potatoes,

When there are so many ways of
serving potatoes do not let us confine
ourselves to three or four ways, and
never surprise our families with a
variety.
This common apple of the earth" "
as the French people call 1t, is such a
ubiquitous food that the old proverb
of familiarity breeds contempt, holds
good in regard to potatoes.
If one cared to spend little time
in thought and study of different
modes OF preparation of this vege-
table, we might have a change for
every day in the year. A sufficient va
riety for use, however, could be
planned for two or three weeks, then
repeating, for most of us forget a
dish or welcome one that has not ap-
peared oftener than once a month.
Cook potatoes in combination for a
light supper dish, combining with
white sauce and cheese, or put a
layer of raw potatoes, then a layer of
onions, minced meat and tomato, in a
baking dish and bake an hour or
longer, depending on the potatoes
Finish just before serving, with a
spoonful of peas. The dish will not
only be filling, but nice to look upon

Whole Country Is Stirred.

One of the most interesting reports
at the recent meeting of the National
Association for the Study and Pre-
vention Of tuberculosis was that Of
the executive secretary, DR.. Livingston
Farrand, showing the growth of the
anti-tuberculosis movement since May
l, 1909. The number of associations
for the prevention of consumption has
increased from 290 to over 425; the
number of sanatoria and hospitals for
the treatment of tuberculosis is from
29S to 400; and the special tuberculosis
dispensaries from 222 to 265. During
the year 1909, thirty-six out of forty
three legislatures in session con-
sidered the subject Of tuberculosis,
and in %, bills were passed for the
prevention or treatment of this dis
ease. Since the opening of the legis.
lative season Of 1910, out of ten legis-
latures in session up to May 1, all
have considered the subject of tuber-
culosis and every one of them has
enacted some law that bears on this
subject.
