GUESSING QUANTITIES.

Another amateurish fault is that Of
guessing quantities instead of meas
uring or weighing them QUE. Occa-
sionally one may meet with women
whose guesses in these matters are
moderately accurate, but, I am afraid
these folks are rare, and the woman
who trusts to guesswork for the guam
titles of her ingredients is pretty sure
to make a failure of her daily menu.
Too much stress cannot be laid upon
the fact that the exact amounts given
in a recipe should always be employed.
A few drops too much of flavoring will
entirely spoil dish, and too little of
any one ingredient will often mar the
effect of all the others
This is one of the reasons why so
few amateur cooks can make a really
good Indian curry. For a curry very
many ingredients are used, the absence
of any one spoils the piquancy of the
others, and too much of any one of
them would do pretty much the same

BADLY ARRANGED MENUS.

BADLY ARRANGED MENUS.
And yet another fault is the inartis
tic (from a culinary point of view way
so many amateurs have of arranging
a menu They do not in the least at
tempt to consider what dishes would
go we'll together, but just arrange for
the first thing which may come along
for each course.
Now an accomplished thief, on the
other hand, carefully plans out his
menu, considering how each item on it
will accord with the others, and so
makes his little dinner, however SIM
pie it may be, a perfect success.
Of course, it is not to be expected
that the woman who only occasionally
turns her attention to cooking can
equal the one whose sole business it
is to prepare food that others may eat,
but, as whatever is worth doing is
worth doing well, the little extra trou-
in doing things correctly would be am
ply repaid.
The proper garnishing of the dishes
is another point in good cookery, which
is often overlooked or ignored by the
amateur A dainty-looking dish Is far
more appetizing than one which is not,
and the garnishing of a dish is seldom
either troublesome or expensive. A
few sprigs of parsley, couple of slices
of beetroot or a hard-bOiled egg, on
some homely dish, make such differ
ence, that one wonders why these lit
tie details are so seldom attended to.
Trifles such as flavoring and color
ing jellies, or ornamenting pastry, and
other things of this sort, are also too
often forgotten in the hurry and bus
tie OF preparing a homely dinner.
And last, but by no means least in
the list of amateurish faults in cook
ing. is that happy knack possessed by
some women of managing with what
they have handy, instead Of securing
what they require and ought to have
for their work. 1t is a false economy
to manage without necessary IN
gradients in cooking. The good COOK
employs all that she needs without be-
ing wasteful or extravagant, and thus
makes her cooking appreciated

tail of the dark plot. But what were

the wealth and made her believe she

POUNDS.
1t is possible the papers were the
mortgage on the old farm which was
due at midnight, and the rascals were
starting out at 10 o'clock so as to be
there to foreclose five minutes before
the lost son returned from the Klon-
dixie with enough money to pay off
everything and put a diamond ring in

The failure Of the amateur COOK to
turn out a well-prepared reas is far
oftener due to carelessness than to
incompetence.
The average amateur cook 3 a very
haphazard way and leaves far too
much to chance. Sometimes chance
favors her, sometimes it does not. and
then the dish in preparation is spoil
ed.
Cooking, like everything else, re-
requires the expenditure of both time
and trouble, if it is to be crowned with
success, and the inexperienced cook
invariably grudges the time spent in
the preparation of meals. Other and
more attractive things claim her at
tention, and the family dinner suffers.
Tasteless and badly-cooked food is
the result, and the digestion of the en-
tire household is impaired
Chief among the faults of the anna
teur chef must be reckOned hurrylng-
She seldom if ever allows sufficient
time for the making and cooking of Il
dish, and the choice lies between leav-
ing insufficient time for cooking or
rushing the making of it. Sometimes

touched, and a dish which should re

The Indians themselves are very much

there is great difficulty in devising

he began yesterday afternoon. Other
business of the convention was the fl
ing Of reports by committees.
Before the convention ends the dele
gates. according to the leaders. will
have to decide for or against socialism.
Gompers In his report. said that politi-
ally an invariable problem which con-
fronts the trade union movement is how
to take action without binding itself to
a hard and fast "ism." "ology." or plat
form. Victor L. Berger, the Milwaukee
socialist congressman-elect, and Max
Hayes, Of Cleveland, are leading in the
struggle to have the convention declare
for socialism. Hayes friends would
like to see him succeed Gompers in the
presidency.
Gompers Trie. TO Block Plans.
President Samuel Gompers on Mon
day headed off temporarily the plan Of
the socialists to capture the American
Federation Of Labor and bind it to the
chariot wheels of Berger's parade to-
ward the presidential nomination of
his party
Congressman -elect Berger, backed by
majority of the Wisconsin delegation
to the thirtieth annual convention OF
the federation, plans to obtain an in
dorsement of socialism by the full con-
vention.
This was known to President Comp
ers. as the socialists have cherished
similar plan at every federation con-
vention Of recent years. However. the
labor chief apparently thought that the
recent national prominence gained by
the party thru the election Of its first
congressman made necessary definite
attack against its ambitious plan.
Calls Is q "PIayed Out Craze"
Mr. Gompers therefore referred to
socialism as one Of "the played-out
crazes and social panaceas." arousing
the ire Of the socialist delegates with
the following only slightly veiled at
tack:
''In going the whole round of the
isms, sociological, ethical, legal, politi-
cal, reformatory, played out popular
crazes, and social panaceas. one will
hear expressed by the leaders senti-
ment that the trade unionists are hide
bound conservatives because they de-
cline to rush in body to take the
magic medicine for social ills offered by
the particular ism advocated by the
critic in each case.
1t is a fact that trade unionism in
America moves on its own set, deliber-
ate way. In so doing it has outlived
wave upon wave Of hastily conceived
broad movements that were to recon-
struct society in a single season, and
it has sufficiently good cause for con-
tinuing on its own reasoned out
course"
