EXT IL Importance TO the proper
/ IN cooking Of food is the way it is
4 served and the order in which
the table is laid. The attrac-
tive appearance of well cooked food
appeals strongly to the appetite and
prepares the digestive organs for their
work. Probably every person has ex-
perienced the feeling Of being suddenly
hungry when some especially attrac-
tive Wand has been displayed before
him. Equally true is it that almost
every one has known hunger to van
ish at sight of table laid with soiled
linen and china and food carelessly
arranged on serving dishes. The home
ly hash has not a musical name and
generally calls up memories Of unen-
jOyable meals, yet ! have known a
platter Of it to win as sincere approval
as has ever been bestowed on Alorter-
house steak. True the hash lSis serv-
ed piping hot on a pretty platter 1t
was well Drowned, fanked perhaps
with poached eggs and garnished with
sprigs of parsley. Its flavor, too, was
just as pleasing and tempting as its
appearance. 1t may take a moment
or two longer to garnish the dish Of
meat or vegetables, but it certainly
pays for the trouble. Rather than
neglect it l would suggest omitting
one or two dishes from the menu. Re
ferring to menus brings to mind the
fact that in some homes, those in the
country especially, there is a tendency
to serve too many foods Of the same
kind at the same meal.
For instance, l have many times
seen three kinds of cooked fruit, three
or four kinds of vegetables and at
least two kinds Of pickles or desserts |
served at an ordinary dinner. This |
means unnecessary work. unnecessary |
expense and so much time spent in .
that very likely there was
none left for dainty serving. A knowl-
edge Of foods and food values should
leach the housekeeper that one food of
each Of the above mentioned kinds is
at one time for any family.
In many homes, too. it is the custom
10 put all the food on the table at
nee and have the various dishes pass
Milford chronicle., 1910-09-30

ed from one person to the next with
out any attempt at serving. While
am at all tiles an advocate Of sim
plicity, l do like to see the head of
the house presiding at table, carving
and serving the meat at least and~his
wife, at her end Of the table, presid-
ing over the coffee and serving those
dishes which rightfully fall TO her lot
1t seems much more like true hos
pitality when this is done than when
platters and vegetable dishes follow
each other in quick succession around
the table, each individual helping him
self The extra minutes which serv-
ing requires is the best thing in the
world for the family, because it al
lows more time to masticate the food
and for social conversation, that best
Of all sauces for the digestion.
Setting the Table.
The keynote of good taste is sim
plicity, and nowhere is it displayed to
better advantage than in laying a ta-
bic for a meal, be that an everyday
family affair or formal gathering of
special guests. 1t is not my intention
to outline a set of rules for the hostess
who plans to entertain on an elaborate
scale. She probably will have the ad-
vice and assistance Of the professional
caterer. But my wish is to give a few
Of the important points to be observed
in setting the ordinary table for the
ordinary meal. And want to preface
what shall say with the hope that all
women who preside over homes or
who have the training Of young peo-
pie in charge will see to it that no
is permitted either in ia
Bile manners or in the simple act Of
setting the table. because such things
leave an indelible mark in after life.
The table, which may be either round,
square or oblong, as preferred, is to
be first covered with a silence cloth, |
a pad Of asbestus cloth or double faced \
canton flannel. The first is more ex- |
pensive, but is better because Of its |
protection to the table and because it
does not become moist from hot dishes |
and stick to the table Over the pad
Is laid the linen cloth, which should
extend ten inches over the edge Of the
table on all sides. The fold in the

ture to the faithful keeping of all

We pledge our support to the
State nominees of the Democratic
party and we appeal to the people to
support all of said nominees in the
interest OF sound and progressive
government.
The Democratic party has long be-
lieved in the election of United States

an amendment to tie Constitution

agreed t abide by the decision OF
the people. and we therefore instruct
and pledge our nominees for the Leg
i~slature to cast their votes in the
Legislature for the person receiving
the highest popular vote for the office
OF United States Senator.
We point with pride to the progress
sive legislation effected by the Demo
cratic party in the interest of labor.
and we specifically endorse that
plank in the Democratic State plat
form winch favors the extension OF
the E%ight-hour law wherein it is prac-
ticable. We demand the enactment OF
a law making it a criminal otfense
for any employer to defraud an EN-

all duties imposed upon him by law.
We pledge our nominees Tor
Sheriff and Constable to the strictest
enforcement of the law and the most
viGilant supervision of the public af-
fairs OF this county.

latlve nominees to work for an appro-
priatlon OF money sufficient to con-
struct additional office room for State
officers.

The present extravagant method of
winding up the affairs of insolvenr
banks. in which the assets of such
.efunct institutions are extensively
to pay unreasonable compen-
sation n tees to receivers and at
torneys must be remedied, and we in
struct our legislative nominees to
for an amendment to our bank
ing laws correcting this evil.
We pledge our nominees for the
to vigorously oppose any
to remove to any other place
state institutions now located within
limits of Ormsby County.

men are now working the property,
thirty hve of whom are on days pay
and five are leasers.
At a distance of 2200 feet south of the
main shaft and in the third level a
wnze is being sunk 160 feet to connect
with the fifth level, and at depth of
1900 feet below the outcroppings. In
this wiaze there is a two foot streak of

streak there are two feet of concentrat-
ing ore that will average $500 per tor.
A series of upraises is being made above
the third level at Nos. 6, 8, 20 and %
and all are being done in ore. During
the past ninety days the work has been
confined to development work and in
the operations of which handsome
profit has been yielded. The mill is

this move should be characteristic of
all high schools.
Another most commendable move
is the introduction of the history
of our own country in the grades be-
ginning with the fifth. Only small
percent of the pupils pass through the
high school and this affords those
in the grades below the seventh to
become familiar with the United

A number of deer has been seen
close to the city this fall. Frank
Garrabrant and Mr.. Macdonald report
seeing several along the line of the
Central Colorado Electric company
while party saw perhaps half dozen
between the top Of the divide, and the
city going over to Bear Creek. One day
this week the engineer on the C.. & S.
train was obliged to slack up to let
two deer and two fawns get across
the track. 1t must be somewhat ag-
gravating to our hunters to wander
over the mountains beyond the Cont
mental Divide or fifteen and twenty
miles up around the lakes for several
days without getting 4 scent of a
deer to return home and find them in
such abundance within easy reach.
Instead Of patronizing outlying sec
tions they should patronize home in
dustry and get deer.
