submitted himself to a much longer and
harder strain than the students against
whom he competed.
When one who Is a stranger to raw
food is invited to meal of such viands
he expects to be both starved and dis
gusted. He is given, to begin with,
perhaps. some ripe olives; as he
munches these and expects the worst,
he is served with an exceedingly dainty
dish, a bowl filled with what looks like
custard, but which is really two raw
eggs beaten to so stiff froth that they
fill pint bowl. Mixed with them are
two dessertspoons of maple syrup and
the juice Of a sweet orange. He eats
it with spoon and finds 1t surprising
ly good. He is also invited to MUNICH
pecan and blanched almonds with it
and some waters of crisp, unlocked
bread with fresh, unsalted butter.
When he has finished that he is given
a salad-such salad! The basis is
lettuce or romaine or chicory, and
heaped upon Its crisp green are all man
ner of things; sliced tomatoes, grated
onions, raisins. little balls Of cream
grated nuts. And over all dressing
Of oil and lemon or orange juice (no
vinegar-that is poison), no salt, no
pepper, but well-beaten egg in abund-
ance The taste of all these things
together is very delicious. the blending
is good.
Then may be given the novice some
dates stuffed with pecan, almond or
protoid nut mea1ts This makes a
relish, and when the eater is served
with another course 1t tastes all the
better. How different it tastes from
anything he ever ate before! Actually,
new sensation in taste. He cannot
tell by its appearance what it really Is,
but it certainly is amazingly good. It
has a very rich. creamy sauce and
seems to go right to the spot. When
he has nunched the last atom. and
eaten the last drop of creamy sauce he
is told what the dish contains, and then
he says, in all probability, that he
could not have eaten it and enjoyed it
had he known that it was raw peas
chopped up, raw sweet corn pressed
from the kernels, and other things
This dish was made with equal parts
of chopped green peas, sweet corn
pressed from the kernels, chopped
raisins and dates, mixed together with
honey and olive oil, pressed into little
cups or other forms to mold the shape,
and then served with a sauce poured
over them made Of rich sweet cream

minutes. One-half this recipe will
make a dozen small puffs. When cold
split them open on one side and I'LL
them with the following mixture: Boil
together one cup of sugar and one
third cup Of water until it forms
soft ball when tested in cold water.
Pour this syrup slowly into the beaten
white Of one large egg, beat until cool.
Add half a teaspoon Of almond ex-
tract. one well-beaten egg, one cup
OF chopped nuts, one-quarter cup Of
sugar and one-quarter cup of thick
cream. Beat until thick and fill into
the puffs. Sprinkle over with con-
fectioners' sugar and serve in silver
cake basket decorated with roses.

sarily accompanies the dishing Of food.
cooked in this manner If delay occurs
in serving. which is another factor in
its favor.
When beef steak Is cooked en- casser-
ole. for best results it should be boiled
for few minutes before putting in
the casserole to finish cooking. Hence,
1t is necessary to begin with the vege-
tables in the casserole, cooking those
which require long time before the
steak is added. Broil the steak, make
the sauce, add these with the remain
Ing vegetables to the casserole and
finish cooking

grains are delicious when cooked in
the casserole; it is even more appre-
ciated for stewing fruit Of all kinds,
fresh and dry.
For making gravy either with milk
or fruit, the casserole is as nice as
anything can be, for a white gravy
cooked In a nearly glazed earthen pot
will not lose color, will not assume a
grayishness or bluishness which it
sometimes will get in kettles OF other
material and which has such an un-
appetizing influence. Eggs, beaten into
gravy, will not curdle as easily and
quickly in the casserole as they like to
do in a thinner vessel, though 1t may
take few minutes longer to let them

Ramekin dishes should be the main
stay of the woman who desires to
serve leftovers in the most attractive
manner. In these all small leftover
bits of vegetables, fish, poultry, veal,
etc., may be utilized in creamed dishes,
a la Bechamel, Individual souffles, etc.
In them may be served gratins, New
burgs, scallops, stuffed and baded to-
matoes, mushrooms and many entrees
where the small portion might not seem
sufficient if served on plate alone.
Care Of the Casserole.
The casserole in Germany is seldom
used in the oven; 1t might be added
that the handle proves an obstruction

ERE is delightful plan by which
III the German mothers encourage
their little girls to knit. the
wool is wound into a large ball
called a wonder ball because 1t contains
many little gifts hidden therein by the
mothers fingers as she winds the
worsted. AS the gift at the centre OF
the ball will be found last that IS
usually the best and might be little
gold ring, or any bit Of child's jewelry.
At another time the little knitter finds
a silver coin and again something for
her dolly. A silver thimble gives great
delight. The method stimulates perse-
verance and lessons the drudgery OF
learning to knit. M. D.

pared in the casserole, and after the
meats have been boiled and cut to
proper pieces, also some vegetables that
may be desired everything may be
put in the gravy and simmered a little
until the time for serving comes.

each letter under the preceding one.
Next, they write the same word on the

the first letter Of the word on the left.
At a given signal every one puts down

China Painting

Is an art that especially appeals to
women of culture, not only because OF
the pleasure derived directly from its
pursuit, but also because of its place In
the identifying of the home. And. be-
sides being a cultural art, it may be ap-
piled in profitable ways. 1t is good
antidote both for and en-
nui. tending to mental poise and re-
fined judgment, while combining pleas
ure and employment.
The growing demand for decorated
china and for teachers of keramic art.
offers exceptional opportunities to wo-
men who fit themselves for, and apply
themselves to this work.
The National Keramic Art Cores
pondence School, Washington, D. c.,
announces q method by which this
pleasant and profitable art may be sue
cessfully learned at the homes Of stu
dents through a series of lessons, by
mail, with criticisms of actual work
submitted, and individual instruction
accompanying.
/ The expense is nominal compared
with that usually incurred in going t.
the cities to take direct lessons, ant
the instruction given is more thorough
and complete, including not only tn
usual directions, but also careful in
struction in the principles underlying
the art, which are not usually explained
by teachers.
All instructors Of the school are ex
perienced masters of the art
Earnest students who will work a
the art can earn more than their tut
ton expenses while learning.
