Rice Outlets.

Two eggs, one-quarter pound OF

cheese, two ounces of any kind of nut
food, one-half cupful of brown bread
crumbs, one tablespoonful Of tomato
sauce, a few sprigs of parsley, pep

half teaspoonful of salt when half
cooked Stew the nut food in gill
of water for ten minutes, add the rice

shapes, dip each into white of egg,
and roll in fine bread crumbs. Fry in

two recipes are fairly rich in body
building elements and will be found
to be excellent meat substitutes and

are ever soaring.

KEEPING THE CLOSET CLEAN
Ono Solution Of This Problem That
confrc ats Many 10 to Paint
u White.

Usually there are about the house
closets SO dark that except at the
yearly or semi-yearly housecleaning 1t
is impossible to tell whether or not
they are dirty. They are breeders OF
disease, even in the best-managed
households, for no maid and few mis-
tresses will crawl into the dark hole
under the stairs or back in the kitchen
after perfectly invisible dust.
One solution of the problem is to
paint these closets white. ceiling. floor
and walls. It is easy enough to see
dirt then, and the other and more use
full contents of the closet as we'll. If
ono can keep the hall closet clean.
and md the family overshoe on sight,
simply by painting the closet white.
then, by all means, let us hasten to
the paintshop and remove the obsolete
and horrible wall paper that usually
incumbers these germ hotels.
If the closet is still dark after this
treatment, try cleaning with the aid
of the electric f1ashlight. There is no
danger of fire, and corners can be
closely investigated. All of which is
an advantage to the housewife who
does not love dirt and disorder.
But always, when cleaning day
comes, consider first the closets, and
most important of all OF these is the
sloping, dark. neglected closet under
the stairs.

Filler for Floors.

When you are having your floor
stained here is a good filler. recon-
mended by paint man, to cover up
the cracks in a carpetless floor
1t k nothing more nor less than
newspaper and mucilage. Soak the
newspaper In warm water until it is
reduced, by tearing and squeezing. to
a mere pulp; mix this pulp with
enough mucilage to give it consistency
and stuff the cracks with 1t by means
of pointed stick. smoothing them off
carefully so as to avoid Jumps.
This will do just as well as an ex-
peusive and troublesome putty filler.

unoooked Ripe Tomato Relish.

One-half peck of ripe tomatoes, peel,
cut in small squares, drain two hours;
ldd one cupful of grated horseradish.
one cupful yellow mustard seed. two
tablespoonfuls of salt, two tablespoon
fuls of celery seed. two cupfuls of
sugar, one tablespoonful of black pep
per, two red peppers cut fine, two ta-
blespoonfuls of cinnamon, ground, one
quart of cider vinegar; bottle cold and

Chicken Salad.

An attractive way of serving chick
en- salad is to place it in ring of
ham jelly. Two cupfuls of the salad
should be poured in the ring of jelly
after 1t is placed on a platter. To
make the dish attractive the jelly
should rest on lettuce or watercress.
For the ham jelly. whip one-half pint
of thick cream until stiff, stir in a
cupful of aspic jelly, cool a little.
and add jar of potted ham. By
adding few drops of fruit sirup it
will make the jelly pink.

Apple Dessert.

Take large apple cut in half, not
lengthwise Remove the core and all
the inside of the apple, leaving just
the shell thick enough to serve the
salad in. Slice some apples very thin,
cut dates in small pieces and break
the nut meats. Mix all together and
fill the apple shell with this salad.
Place on dessert dish. cover the top
with whipped cream and sprinkle with
ground nuts. Put walnut meat in
the center.

Mock Roast.

One cup of beans, boiled and mash

ed one cup of finely chopped peanuts
or pecans, one cup of dry bread

with water and mix with the mashed
peas, beans, and nuts. Season with
salt, pepper and onion juice. Put into
a buttered baking dish. cover with a
cup of rich cream and bake about ar
hour and half. This is very health
full and fine substitute for meat.

SHERIDAN, Wye, Sept. Especial Tele-
gram) Members Of local labor unions are

cratic administration, because It positively
refuses to enforce the ordinance providing
that eight hours shall constitute days
toll on all municipal work. Representatives
OF labor organizations late today com
planned to city officials taht paving con-
tractor was working a gang Of men nine
hours a day. Mayor OMAR resented the
protest and declared that lie would not take
any action, making It clear that he had no
intention of enforcing the eight hour law.
The unions are especially bitter against
tho mayor in view of the fact that he was
elected by large majority last fall on a
platform pledging him to support the eight
hour ordinance already enacted. Pracu-
cally the entire membership of organized
labor here voted for omar, and now many
express regret that they did.

1t is said that II was through information
of Couden that the Big Four learned of

to the satisfaction of the treasury officials
that Couden had known of the shortage

ing to men landing at Old Point from the
battleship the three men who met death
aboard the North Dakota yesterday were
not killed by the explosion Of OIL as first

No. was flooded to prevent the spread of
the flames and the explosion OF the maya

were recovered when the compartment was

The board OF inquiry appointed after the
accident yesterday by Rear Admiral
Schroeder, commander-in-chief Of the At
lantic fleet, began it's investigation of the
disaster today.
Officers Of the North Dakota and of the
fleet generally are exceedingly reticent
about the accident, but it is the belief Of
the men on the ship that the three men
who are dead were drowned in the flooding
of the fire room; 1t is thought they were
helpless, perhaps unconscious from their
burns, before the inrushing water drowned
them.

FORTY YEARS A DIPLOMAT
Alvey A. Adee Rounds Ont Two Score
Years Service I'm Department
of State.

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. Sept 9-Forty
years of continuous service in the diplo-
matte branch of the government, mostly in
high station, is the record accomplished by
Second Assistant Secretary of State Alvey
A, Adee, today.
Two score years ago Mr.. Adee was APP
pointed secretary of legation at Madrid In
due course he became a clerk in the state
department on July 8, 1877, chief of the
diplomatic bureau in June, 1878, and third
assistant secretary Of state in July, 1882.
He was appointed second assistant sec
rotary August 3, 1886, and at almost any
time since then might have become first
assistant secretary had he cared to fill the
post. No American diplomatist is so ex-
tensively known in his particular field Of
activity as is Mr.. Adee and few Of the
great diplomatic notes issued from the state
department during the past quarter of a
century have failed to receive his careful
editing and auendation.
