Peach Time.

When peaches are ripe, the matter
of suitable desserts becomes a very
simple one for peaches are of all
fruits most delicious. There are hun
dreds of ways in which the peach may
be served either cooked or in its nat
ural state. A dainty way to bake them
is to pare them thinly and cut off a
small piece Of the top through which
the pit may be removed with a spoon
and a nutpick. This leaves the peach
whole. Fill the cavity with sugar aft
er placing in baking dish, cover the
bottom of the dish with water, cover
and bake In slow oven. When
cooked in this way peaches become
transparent Serve either warm or
cold with whipped cream. Many pre-,
fer to bake the peaches with the pit
left In them as they give flavor liked
by many.
For old-fashioned peach tart, make
crust for deep pie plate and bake,
sprinkle with powdered sugar. cover
with whipped cream, chill and serve
A dessert that is both attractive and
appetizing.
Tapioca pudding with peaches
makes delicious dessert. Serve with
cream and sugar.
A pudding liked especially by the
children is made by pouring batter
over sliced peaches and bake; serve
hot with cream and sugar.
Baked Peaches.
Another way of serving baked
peaches: Peel and cut in halves six
peaches, remove the stones and place
in a shallow pan. Fill each cavity
with a teaspoonful of sugar. one.hali
teaspoonful of butter, few drops o.
lemon juice, and slight grating o.
nutmeg. Bake 20 minutes.
Peach cake is a delicious dessert
and one not common. Bake an ange
food In two layers, use sliced sweet
ened peaches for the filling. and serve
with thick layer Of whipped cream.

PEELED to roam from devastated village TO

to hunger and exhaustion.
Had Weyler been less brutally honest he
would have omitted such damaging admission
Up to this day we have had books of many
kinds dealing with the Cuban war; pamphlets
put forth by the insurgents and notoriousy unfair
to Spain; Spanish publications which msrepre-
sented grossly the attitude of the United States;
articles In European newspapers almost unan1-
mously censuring the Americans for 'robbing
Spain of her colony.
Now however, we have the facts presented
almost without any comments and certainly with
out establishment by Spaniard who loves his
country and frankly detests the Americans.
Once twice he registers protest against
the senates decision concerning the recognition
of belligenercy the campaign Of defamation
directed against him In American papers.
He complains that In March, 1885, when he
had the situation well under control the senate
of the United States interfered most unfairly, for
1t recognized the belligerency of the insurgents,
thereby giving them new courage.
This is less convincing than the majority of
his arguments, for If compare dates we find
letters in which he admits his failure to stop the
progress of the insurrection.
His gravest charge against the United States
is contained in the following paragraph which
lS TOO vague TO De taken as seriously as some
other statements Of his:
"The United States were against everything
that would bring about termination of the war
American citizens held several millions worth of
Cuban bonds, issued with the provision that the
island would pass under the domination of the
United States ten years after Cuba would have
separated herself from Spain. The Yankees saw
that with the pace set the much-longed-for indie.
pendence of Cuba and its corollary, the annexa-
tion thereof, was becoming a more and more re-
mote possibility. But there was no reason why
the peninsula should have robbed all the gossip
which originated In America"
But on the whole the picture his letters and
reports as well as the letters of Martinez Cam
pos he publishes, present to our eyes of Cuba in
the years preceding the Maine incident would
have justified any nation, remote In inter.
vening for the sake Of humanity; a population
unanimous In Its desire for independence: a
bloody war which could only lead to an ephem-
eral peace and at best would have left the island
dreary waste for years to come; the rights of
foreign land owners and investors trampled un-
der foot all this horror had to be stopped
Spain did not lose Cuba as consequence OF
the war with the United States; by the very ad
mission OF SPANS military representatives in that
ill-fated colony. Cuba was irretrievaby lost to
Spain in 1897, and the few Spaniards residing In
the coast towns, the only safe abode for them
felt themselves despised ostracised minority

Summer Breakfasts.

summer BREAKFASTS.
To most housewives the first meal
OF the day Is the one most difficult to
prepare. Start the day right with a
good breakfast, and we are at peace
with the world and ones self, at least
until the next meal.
Many case Of indigestion and bad
temper may be followed back to a
poorly planned and worse cooked
meal. Our food has much to do with
our dispositions. At no season of the
year is fruit more plentiful or more
of necessity than during the warm
months.
Blackberries, blueberries, plums,
pears and apples are abundant this
season and offer a pleasing variety.
For the cereal course have at least
five varieties. 1t will be an easy mat
ter to have different one for every
day in summer.
II cooked cereal Is used 1t ia
worth noting that cereal is either
made or marred by salt. Too much
spoils 1t, too little makes II fiat, and
no amount Of salt added will season
it as If 1t were cooked in 1t. Cream
Is another necessity. II you cannot
have cream, give up having the cereal.
No matter how great the heat, hot
breads are always popular. Light
puffy rolls are not easy to have un-
less the housewife is willing to rise
at very early hour. Popovers are a
choice hot bread and with a little
practise easily made. The oven heat
Is the important thing in making pop
overs. Here Is good recipe for
them: Take one cupful of flour and
half teaspoonful of salt. Pour over
this very slowly one cupful of milk,
beating we'll until smooth, then add
the beaten yolk of two eggs and last
ly the whites beaten to stiff broth.
Bake in hot jem pans thirty minutes.
Graham mullins and corn cake are
other well-liked breakfast breads. For
the substantial course there may be
fresh fish or hash Of the meat of the
day before. Croquettes are excellent
and omelets of different kinds are also
good. Veal or chicken finely minced
and well seasoned Is delicious served
on thin slice of buttered toast and
a poached egg on top. These are but
a few suggestions as to what may be
used for summer breakfasts.

Canning Hints.

Put silver knife in the empty
fruit jar before turning in the hot
fruit and you will not have a cracked
jar.
Let the air bubbles UP by thrusting
a fork or knife down the inside of
jar filled with fruit before sealing it.
After the rubber and lid are ad-
justed screw the lid down as tight
as possible, then with the back of
knife tap the edge Of the lid firmly
down on the rubber, this will prevent
it from leaking.
To Can Green Corn.
Corn that is as fresh as IL Just
taken from the cob may be canned
now.
Take nine cupfuls of corn freshly
cut from the cob, a cupful each of
sugar and water and half cupful Of
salt. Stir until the salt and sugar
is we'll dissolved, then can without
cooking in air-tight cans. Freshen
awhile before using.

Hot Weather Hints.

Hot Weather Hints.
All the energies are exercised to en-
dure the heat and the enervating at
mosphere while performing house
hold tasks during the summer. Dress
comfortably and rise early to do the
bulk of the work that has to be done
each day before the heat of the day.
The simplest style of living COM
formable to health and comfort, should
be the aim.
Bread may be mixed at night and
kneaded the first thing in the morn
ing and then baked before nine o'clock.
Soups and vegetables may be cooked
early, salads and desserts prepared
and with gasoline, gas or oil stove
the meal may be easily prepared. A
fireless cooker is an invaluable aid to
the busy housekeeper as the dinner
may be started in the cool of the day
and put In the cooker to still cook
without fire or attention.
Avoid entirely cold meals in hot
weather, If the meal is to be cold have
a hot drink of some kind or with a hot
meal, serve cold drink.
Care and planning will do much to
lessen the fatigue and shorten the
hours of labor. There are some
things that must be done, each house
keeper being law unto herself. For
some it is neither convenient or eco
nomical to buy prepared food, for
those the baking and cooking must
be done in the home.
The flour and lard or butter for
pastry may be prepared in sufficient
quantity to last for several days and
kept in the icebox to be used when
needed. 1t is even better than when
freshly prepared as the cold mixture
makes a fiakier crust.
The washing. ironing and cleaning
may be done early II planned for and
the lighter work be left for the hot
part of the day.
Work is good for us and those who
sit around painting with the heat, do
ing nothing but talk of the weather
and their sufferings are much more
uncomfortable than those who are
busy and have the mind well occu-
| pied. This has been proved over and
over again. A busy worker has no
time for worry about the weather or
other things beyond control.
