THE PuNeENT PEPPER.

The delightful pepper will soon be
with US in abundance, and as 1t has
been canned successfully, we may
have the piquant flavor in many dishes
If we care to take the trouble OF put
ting them up in their season.
When used as cups or cases to hold
salads or meat mixtures they add to
the flavor as well as the appearance.
A remnant of chicken minced and a
bit of white sauce added which has
been made OF cream is a most tooth
some dish.
Brains are almost as good as sweet
breads and when used in creamed
dishes, in pepper shells. it is difficult
to tell the difference. The expense is
much less.
When preparing the peppers for fill
ing, wash carefully and cut OF the
stem end, remove the seeds and white
pulp. Cut thin slice from the other
end and the peppers will stand firmly
Parboil them for five to ten minutes,
and they are then ready for any fill
Ing Put little water in the pan, ar
range the peppers In it and put into
hot oven to bake fer twenty minutes
There is scarcely a salad that is not
improved by the addition of a few
slices of green or red pepper.
Sliced tomato and cucumbers. shred
ed green pepper and chopped onion
with French dressing is a salad that is
most popular.

parts of hard cooked eggs and green
peppers into strips. Add half as much

The wire connecting the transmit
ting and receiving telephones Is
trayersed by an electric current which
varies in unison with the vibrations
produced at the diaphragm Of the
transmitter. This current is led to
the receiver. which is composed of a
thin iron diaphragm placed in close
proximity to an electric magnet. The
varying currents passing through the
magnet cause it to attract the re-
ceiver diaphragm with varying inten-
sity, corresponding to the sound
