Paper Bag Cookery.

Nicolas Soyer. the French chef O
Brooks Club, London, has proved tha
the paper bag cookery is means O
annihilating skillets, pots and kettles, ane
where is there woman who had no
rather burn few charred paper bag:
after each meal than wash kitchen
utensils?
The French chef claims that nearly
everything except soup, tea, coffee, cocoa
etc.. can be cooked in bags of clean
crackiy white paper. The use of the bag
is said TO be more economicai. more
Ehygenic and more laborsaving than the
oven and to do away with all smell oil
cooking as well as make the dishes more
savory.
The inventor claims that the paper bag
has advantages over the open oven in the
following respects?
I. 1t retains all the juices and all the
nourishment.
2. 1t prevents burning. drying up and
toughening.
8. Saves time and fuel. as it takes one
half the time required by the old methods.
4. 1t saves labor.
The bag is placed on wire broiler mot
solid plate) in order that the heated air
may pass all around it.
M. Soyer claims he has perfected the
system of paper bag cookery through the
invention of chemically prepared paper.
An American firm has already agreed to
place these bags on the market in large
quantities.
At the Pure Food Exhibit 10 Madison
Square Garden. New York City, the
Navy Exhibit" made practical use of
these bags and served the dishes to the
spectators, also Mrs. Wallace. of Eng
land, gave nstrations-lectures in
cookery and the use OF these bags.

A Race of Tenors.


Generally speaking. races living al
high attitudes have weaker and more
highly pitched voices than those living
in regions where the supply OF oxygen
is more plentiful. Thus, in South
America, among the Indians living on
the plateaus between the ranges Of the
Andes, at an elevation of from 10000
to 14,000 feet, the men have voices like
women and the women like children,
their singing being a shrill monotone.
The Australian native has a weak
voice, but knack of sending it long
distance, and the lowest tribes of
African bushmen would come into the
same category; but. it is said. Of all
human beings the pygmies of Central
Africa have, in point of volume and
compass, the weakest of human voices.

PUMPKIN PIES.


Summer joys, though all departed,
Do not leave us broken hearted;
Holidays may now be over,
With their scent of sea or clover;
Autumn's cares may now perplex us,
Thoughts of tending furnace vex us,
Still Tam happy, there's reason,
Pumpkin pies are now in season.
Golden pumpkins, how they lure usl
How they long to come and cure us
OF our blues and Indigestion
They can do it. there's no question;
They can make life worth the living
Every day until Thanksgiving.
Yes, I'm happy, there's reason,
Pumpkin pies are now in season.

Some Old Apple Trees.

'The Garden of Eden was located in
New Mexico and some of the original
apple trees are still standing" This is
the claim made by many people Of one
of the newest states in the Union, and
New Mexico is making considerable noise
about the matter recently. due to the
activity in the apple district of that state
preparation for the American apple
exposition which will be held in Denver
the week of November I2. Apples from
these trees will be exhibited at the show.
OF course the counter claim is made
that the aforesaid apple trees were planted
or rather grew from seeds planted by the
Spanish invaders some three hundred
years ago. Be that as it may the trees
are standing near the town Of Manzano,
which is the Spanish word for apple. and
in the vicinity OF the old ruins of Cuara,
Abo and Grand Quivira. And it must
be admitted that the apples that will be
exhibited from these trees at the Denver
show will be a classy display.
Legend has it that the original settlers
were driven out Of the county or killed by
the Comanche Indians and other tribes
of savages that infested that section.
When the Mexicans re-settled the country
about one hundred years ago they found
the trees still standing and bearing fruit,
and they named the town Manzano. So
the fact is undisputed that the trees are al
least more than one hundred years old.
