The city council decided Monday not
to macadamize or improve Chapman

trunk sewer may be laid there next
summer and the street fixed then.
DIR. r. c. Mahaney left Thursday
evening for Emporia, Va, to spend ten

Many focks of wild geese passed
over the city Monday on their way
south, various estimates placing one
flock at from four to six hundred.
Monday night ther9 seemed to be one
continuous flock flying over or around
the city, people being kept awake by
the noise. The geese were evidently
bewildered by the electric lights and
after flying continuously for long
time landed in different. parts of the
city but were gone before daybreak.
Despite the fact that it is unlawful to
discharge firearms within the city
limits or to worry or kill' wild water
fowl in the night. several parties about
the city shot at the focks.

HINTS FOR THE COOK
RIGHT AND WRONG WAYS OF PRE-
PAIRING MEAT.
"slmmerlng" and "Bolllns" Are Differ
ent Thlnss-steaming Excellent
for Cooking Large Joints--
BralsIng Pan Useful.

The ordinary housewife rarely un-
derstands the meaning OF the words
boil" and simmer" Water boils at
sea level at 212 degrees Fahrenheit;
at high attitudes 1t boils at lower tenn
perature. We find by experience that
meat becomes tender more quickly at
simmering point-a temperature OF
1870 degrees-than when 1t is boiled
at 212 degrees. Simmering is when
the vessel, safely pass through the
water and rupture at the top, says the
Christian Science Monitor. This is
not the boiling motion. To have piece
of boiled meat rare, juicy and tasty
the outside must be thoroughly sealed,
the same as In baking. To do this,
put the meat into boiling water, bring
quickly to the boiling point, boil for
20 minutes, then push the kettle back
where the meat will simmer 10 min
utes to each pound. If the meat is
to be served rare IL minutes will be
long enough; on the other hand, If
1t is to be well done, cook 1t 20 min
utes to the pound. Even when well
done it should be juicy, tender and
palatable.
Boiled meats are more easily d.
gested than baked meats, even when
baked meats are carefully cooked.
Broiled meats are preferable to those
cooked in dry pan. and dry-panned
meats are far superior to those fried
in fact, fried meats have no place at
well-regulated table.
Steaming Is an admirable method OF
cooking tough meats, or large joints
like a leg of mutton or a ham. This
may be done in a common boiler,
using sufficient water to create a good
volume of steam Place the meat in
the boiler. on a rack, above the water.
AS the water evaporates replace 1t
with boiling water. Do not check the
boiling or you reduce the heat and
soften the surface of the meat.
Braising is a cross between baking
and boiling. This method Is largely
used for tough meats. A braising pan
is a baking pan with a tight-ftting
cover. These pans are sold under the
astonishing name of roasting pans;
roasting means to COOK Delore hre'
you cannot roast in a covered pan.
These pans are, Notwithstanding
their illogical name, admirable uten-
sils in which to cook fricandeau OF
veal, beef la mode, leg of mutton
braised beef, or an old turkey or
fowl Place the meat in the pan and
partly fill the pan with boiling stock
or water; add. If you like, a sliced
onion, bay leaf and little chopped
celery. Cover the pan, stand in very
hot oven and bake for three or four
hours, according to the size and the
kind of meat A leg of mutton VIII
require two; beef a la mode four, ana
fricandeau of veal three hours. veal,
to be at all edible, must be very well
cooked.

Nut Bread.

Beat up one egg and beat into 1t
one-quarter of a cupful of sugar; add
one teaspoonful of salt and two cup
fuls of milk. Mix four teaspoonfuls OF
baking powder with four cupfuls OF
-four and sift this into the other IN
gradients. adding at the same time
one cupful of chopped nuts. Stir these
all together until smooth and then
make into two loaves; let them rise in
pans for 20 minutes and then bake for
20 minutes in hot oven.-Harper's

Little Economy.

There is nothing 30 small that you
cannot save money on it. Make your
pillow cases, for instance, of tubing.
Then when they begin to get thin in
the middle, you can rip the closed end
and sew them again SO that the
creased edge of the pillow case will be
now the middle of the. fiat side. The
worn places are thus brought to the
outer edge, where there is practically
no wear upon them.

Mae Martyr:
Women who have been doping
their faces with powder and vainly
striving TO attain beautiful complex
ions. will get the desired results by
using instead Of face powder, good
spurmax lotion. Such a lotion can be
made a small cost, by dissolving 4
ounces OF spurmax in 1-2-pint hot
water. then add teaspoonfuls gly-
cerine. Or to make the lotion dry
more quickly when applied to the
skin, 1-2-pint witch hazel can be
used instead OF the water.
"This simple lotion Is unequaled for
refining ones complexion. It makes
the skin so soft. smooth and velvety
and takes away tina shiny. oily. sallow

nor does It rub off easily like powder
