had splendid support.
The visitors were we'll pleased

The next generation of Atwoods was

Casserole Cookery.

Anybody may own a casserole which
is an earthen ware covered dish made
ire proof. This is a foreign idea
which has found much favor with us,
and the housewife who has not made
herself familiar with it's advantages
is not as progressive as she should
be.
Our cooks have begun to realize the
value Of long, slow cooking at a mod
crate heat, which gives us the best re-
suits as to nutrition and flavor in
foods.
The chief charm of casserole
oven to cook slowly in it's own juices
and will not suffer from standing
while other courses are being served.
The casserole is ar especial favorite
with the woman who does her own
work. Any foods that require slow
cooking without browning may be
cooked IN the casserole. Meat may
be Drowned before putting to cook in
the casserole. then left to the long,
SLOW simmer which softens the tough
est meat.
For a beef stew, brown the meat
before putting into the dish, then cook
slowly for several hours. When you
are making your ~fireless cooker, have
n compartment for your casserole.
A casserole of rice and any leftover
meat is very nice. Line the casserole
with cold boiled rice, hen put in the
seasoned chopped meat and cover
with rice. Add sufficient gravy to the
meat, with seasonings of onion, green
and red pepper. Bake one hour and
serve with tomato sauce.
For chicken en- casserole: Prepare
the chicken as for ~fricassee. Fry in
butter until a delicate brown. Then
put the Drowned chicken in the cas-
seroie with a pint of chicken broth or
water and cook an hour and a half.
Put in a sauce pan three tablespoon
fuls OF butter, add six mushrooms, a
dozen balls of carrots, six finely.
sliced onions, two dozen balls of DO
tatoes. AS soo as brown add to the
casserole with more broth or water if
necessary, salt and pepper to taste
n cook another half hour or until
the vegetables are tender. Do not
uncover after the vegetables are in or
you will lose the fine flavor. Serve
from the casserole.

years. l had three good doctors but

used n box of Cuticura Ointment
and three bottles of Cuticura Resolvent
and was completely cured. My hands
were raw all over, inside and out, and
the eczema was spreading all owe my
body and limbs. Before l had used one
bottle, together with the Cuticura
Ointment, my sores were nearly
healed over, and by the time I had
used the third bottle, I was entirely

She could get nothing that would do

FOOTWEAR CAUSE OF WOE
Popular Pump Is Rough on Silk
Stockings, But Girls will
Wear Them.

The bachelor maid twisted her pref.
ty foot around and looked ruefully at
the heel of her silk stocking, Just
above the top of her patent leather
pump.
What do l care about a~irships?'
she exclaimed mournfully, ''or wire.
less telegraph improvements or deep
sea navigation? What women most
need is some kind of an invention
that will keep pumps from cutting
through stockings just above the heel
That would meet a real human need
| paid SO for those stockings and this
is the second time l have worn them
One pump has cut a long cash, as you
see, and it is useless to mend it. The
same kind of a cash would be cut
through the mending silk in a few
hours.
why not abandon the wearing OF
pumps? Oh. horrors, no! They are
the most adorable footwear on earth
No sane m would be willing to
surrender them. l will wear cheaper
stockings if l must, but give UP
pumps. never! Surely there must be
enough igenuity in the whole world
to rise to this demand. l believe a
manufacturer who would devise some
means, either on the pump or in the
stockings, to obviate this diff Guilty
would wax rich"
Bachelor cousin had a brilliant idea
couldn't some leader of fashion make
it the style to leave an open space ir

there would be nothing to cut away?'
Except the skin! Wretch!"

Rice.

Rice is said by our best authorities
to be one of the most nutritious, most
easily digested of our foods. AS to
cheapness it might take the place of
potatoes and should be more often
served on our tables. The old method
of soaking before cooking is not a
good one. 1t should be washed, then
dropped a little at a time into rapidly
boiling water. When tender, drain and
dry off in a hot oven, and yOu have
a dish or ice to grace any table.
Rice makes a nice luncheon dish
with cheese and seasonings. Bake as
any escalloped dish. AS c%roquettes,
served with jelly, rice is a nice ac-
compartment to the meat cOure. Rice
In griddle cakes makes a pleasing
variety; adding a cupful Of cold.
cooked rice to any griddle cake mix,

AS stufting for fowl it may be pre-.
pared by mixing four cups of cold,
boiled rice and n cupful of bread

Drowned in butter; moisten with milk.
season with salt, sage, or other herbs,
as desired. Add half a pound of sau.
sage meat or salt pork. If neither of
these last are used, add more butter
to the rice.
Rice -four is a delicate -four much
used in invalid cookery. Very nice
bread and cakes may be made with it.
A cheap quality of rice may be
bought that is just as good as the
higher priced. cheap, because the

From the time they were first heard
of in England the Atwoods were of a
good deal of prominence. In 1913 three
brothers, Peter, John and Godfrey
were tenants of the Abbey of Chertsey.
They leased an estate "at the wood"
a place still in existence, and now
called Wood Place, and from this place
they took their surname, Atte Wode.
But for 800 years the name appears in
a great many forms, as often Wood as
Atwood, and it is not until the time of
the immigration of the family to this
country that it is finally fixed as it is
now spelled. One Of the family who
was sergeant-at-arms to Edward III.
Is referred to in several ways as
Ricardus or Richard del Wode, Atte
Wode and of the Wode. The name also
At Wood, a Wood, de Wood, de Wude,
and AwOod.
In 1457 Peter Ate Wode obtained a
license from the bishop for a private
chapel at Wood Place. Fifty years be-
fore that the family had succeeded to
Sanderstead Court. a manor house not
far from Wood Place. One of the earli-
est records now in the church at San
derstead village reads: Here lyeth

Atwood of Sanderstead Corte, who

The Appetizing Celery.

Celery is such a wholesome vegeta-
BILE, with the medicinal quality which
quiets nerves, that we should
oftener have it upon our tables. Au
naturel it is commonly served; but
there are many ways of serving it
alone or in combination with other
foods, which give variety. This vege-
table is especially adapted to COM
bine with fruits and other vegetables,
as salads. One of the prettiest and
most satisfying salads is made of one
or two sections of grape fruit, a little
shredded celery, a few nuts and a
teaspoonful of mayonnaise served in
head lettuce.
Celery cream soup is a favorite one
made as many cream soups. The Gel
