VALUE OF MEAT CHOPPER

a skillet or thick pan, cover closely

half hour is about right. After few
trials, possibly the first time, any one

meat, especially cooked ham. is to cut

break over it one egg for each per-

carefully, so as to preserve the dis

Kitchen Table.

The ordinary kitchen table is too
low for tall people to work on. Take
four common doorstops which screw
into the wainscoting to prevent doors
striking the wall, and screw one on
to the bottom of each table leg. This
raises the table about three inches
and makes it much more convenient

as being other than parts of the legs

WASHINGTON a seven-year

consider tea drinking mollycoddish.
During the last year of the Roose-

did not understand) finally yielded to
the influence that eventually caused
but a handful of them to be present

With the presidential approval OF
this revival of afternoon teas-in fact.
with the desire of Mr.. Taft to see his
assistants and the naval and military
officers sparkle little more in the
social firmament-there is no question
that the tea will become within the
next twelvemonth the most satisfac-

are also comparatively inexpensive,
