TO PREPARE SPANISH OMELEl
mahy Methods Are Used, but the One
Here Given Is Typical of
Them All.

Spanish omelet is a toothsome dish
that seems to appeal particularly to
members Of the stronger sex. and is
therefore worth noting in the interest
OF the men OF the household. It is
varlously prepared. but the following
recipe is representative of all:
Beat tbut only slightly and without
separatingl, four eggs. Afterward stir
III Tour tablespoonsful Of milk, one
half teaspoonful of salt and a third
teaspooniul of pepper. Put into the
omelet pan two tablespoonful of but
ter and turn in the eggs. Pick up"
with fork to make it light and
creamy. Brown quickly underneath
and fold with the sauce given below,
IN the fold and around 1t on the dish
Cook two tablespoonful butter and
one of finely chopped onions until yell
low. Add one and three-fourths cups
OF tomatoes and cook until much of
the moisture evaporates. Then stir in
an ounce of chopped mushrooms, the
same quantity of capers. quarter
teaspoonful salt and a small piece
OF timely chopped red or green pepper.
COOK the latter first in butter into
which little chopped onion has been
shaved.

SCENTS FOR USE IN BATH
Simple Mixtures That Will Give Com
fort When One Comes in
Tired and Warm.

Nothing is so inyigorating when
tired and warm as scented bath of
hef water. In summer days it proves
particularly refreshing when taken be
fore dressing for the evening.
The simplest of these baths is made
by adding cologne, toilet water or vio-
lct ammonia TO the bath water.
\ good aromatic mixture to keep on
hand is made from two ounces OF
tineture of camphor, four ounces of
cologne and an ounce of tincture of
bnzoin Add enough OF this to the
bath water to make it milky,
II you are presented with colognes
or toilet waters that are not espe-
eially fragrant. use them in the bath
The scent is 50 faint as not to be
Oh =4greeable, and the refreshing quail
ties are as great as from more eXpen-
slNe colegnes.
Another refreshing bath is made by
squeezing the filtered juice of four
lemons into Il quarter of tubtul OF
water
Who're the aromatic bath seems ex-
travagant, or there is no time for 1t,
put solution of the mixture given
above into spray and spray 1t over
lace, neck and arms.
Putting cologne back of the ears, on
the temples and on UPPER lip is ex-
tfemeiy resttul and cooling.
