The Mail Order Business.

In a recent issue Of Puck, a. e.
Porter hits off in witty rhyme the
wholesale Way in which the hull fam

of all sorts. While this may be fun
for the reader, it's sad for the home
merchant. The verses should make all
residents outside of the big cities sit
up and think:

Attractiveness Of Kansas City.

Kansas City, Mo-. has set an exam
pie which every American city may
emulate-an example of what can be
done after city becomes great and
an illustration of what should be done
early in the history of a city that
expects to become great. At cost of
many millions of dollars she has es-
tablished an elaborate system of parks
and parked boulevards which consti-
tute perhaps the most attractive mu-
nicipal improvement in the United
States, and as a consequence Kansas
City is the most desirable place of
residence in this respect upon the coll
tinent.

The Fatherland Teaches How Fish May BE
Used to Cut Down Meat Bills.

Many OF the visitors are the cooks of large
households, who have been sent TO acquire
a new culinary trick for the pleasure Of a
fastidious employer; but, no matter what
the station or the purpose of the visitors,
they are all intent upon learning some
thing new. And so. instead of putting on
airs or making class distinctions. they ap-
ply themselves diligently to their appointed
tasks taking copous notes. when they are
not busy scraping scales or creaming but
ter. Here are some of the notes they take:
Do not demand a certain fish at a GER
tain time. but be ready TO use any that
happens to be on the market at the time
In this way YOU will always be sure Of get
ting fresh fish.
fresh fish may he recognized readily
because the head is firm. the meat hard,
the eyes Shiny and glossy and the odor
negligible.
The bones Of the deep sea fishes are
neither as plentiful nor as fine. and there
fore not as dangerous, those OF the lake
and brook fish. In these larger fishes,
moreover, there is not so much waste, as
the head fins and bones can he used as
stock for soup. Four pounds Of fish cost
about the same as one of meat, contain
almost as much nourishment and have
much less waste material.
The stomach can digest fish much more
readily than meat; as the former contains
a large amount Of phosphorus and albu-
men. it is highly recommended for chill
dren.
To vary the method Of serving, any re-
cipes generally applied to meat may he

May baskets.
zone May Day somebody gave me a
beautiful book, with pictures in it, telling
how people i'm other countries celebrated

the fields in the night and picked OIL great

The children Of the fifth grade were hav-
ing q Nav Day party in Central Park.
But the fun had really begun in the morn
ing. when they had gathered at the school
house door and from there marched down
the street 10 the park. Every htue g"i
wore a white dress. because it was very
warm day. all decorated with bright col
ored ribbons, and the boys, Of course
would not wear ribbons-"grly things
they called them-hut they had soldiers
caps. made of paper, and long tin horns
Then, in the park. they had danced around
the big Maypole. winding the red and blue
and green and yellow ribbons in and out
until the MaypOe was all covered with
bright little patches Of color-like barber
pole. only much prettier. Then the Httlest
sirl in the class was crowned Queen Of the
May with big wreath Of pink roses and
a Gilt wand, and the biggest boy was KING,
with a gold crown. After that they had
PLAYED games and danced folk dances until
they were tired.
"Tell us a story, teacher" said the little
Queen, as they sat resting in one of the
rustic summer houses.

THE PET DEER.

Dear Little Men and Little Women: 7
have often read the letters in the paper
and would like to have you know about the
pet deer We once had. He was caught by
my father while swimming in lake near
here. We kept him in our barnyard which
was surrounded by a very high fence, and
he soon became tame. He would eat with
our horses and sleep beside one of them,
and always run up 10 us and look for some
thing TO eat when We entered the barn He
soon had a fine pair Of antlers. One morn
ing my little brother was much surprised
TO find him with only one antler on his
head After hunting little while he
found the other one and saved II. Within
week the other one dropped, and we
found that and mounted them. We kept
our pet n long while and had lots OF fun
with him. Yours truly,

The GRISr MILL.

Dear Little Men and Little Women. In
the village near where I was visiting last
summer was a grist mill. We visited this
place and found IL very interesting. First,
we saw the immense water wheel that
made the machinery go. You would hardly
think that this slow moving wheel could
make the machinery go so fast. Next we
saw the millstones grinding the meal. we
then went upstairs, where there was much
machinery, used TO separate the whea'
from the chaR and so forth. Further UP
we saw the bins where the grain Is stored.
We also saw an endless chain with little
boxes on It that were used TO carry grain
In some boxes were specimens OF grain IN
the different stages It has To pass through.
In this mill buckwheat -four, plain whea'
-four and cornmeal are made.

the secret Of why women age more RAPIDLY
than men, II is because they cannot sky

Gulge in horseplay. Yet they ought TO do
so occasionally for the sake OF their health
and tempers and good looks" IS the way
the expert sums up the question. Statistics
are quoted showing the pitifully inadequate
ways in which some women attempt "a
have spree. Here are a few Of them:
Il have an orgy of tea drinking ! go
out by myself 10 tea shop and have a
big tea. Then / go 10 another shop and

Roller skating is my favorite distraction
when feel out of sorts. fly round and
round the rink and am positively rude 10
people. After that feel better"
"A surreptitious visit TO a music hall
satisfies my idea Of having a lark"
Other "skylarking" ideas carried out by
women were: Smoking a whole pack OF
cigarettes and "a strenuous shopping
day"
And. of course, for the last word. there
is the suffragette, saying that only through
votes can women satisfy this much fec
need Of her nature. g
"The very best thing a woman can do

AS most of these fish swim in the Atlantic
Ocean and are to be found on the United
States market, it is not out Of place to cite
some OF this information here.

fish has boiled, or boil the bones and the

been added 10 moisten 1t well. Sprinkle
with cheese and bake for an hour and
half.
For these baked dishes the fishes recon-
mended are cod. halibut, haddock. and the
blue gurnard a species Of the brook trout
The picture book also tells how to use
the skate, the ray and the thornback, a
much maligned fish that are usually cast
back into the waters whence they come
and generally serve only to rouse the wrath
of the catcher who is looking for better
things These fish have fat, founderlike
bodies, brown on top and white below, with
the two eyes on the upper side. They are
certainly not things OF beauty, and they
afford a good deal OF waste product. How
ever the relatively small edible part is
such delcacy that 1t is well worth pre-
serving at the expense of all the waste
product These bits. boiled and served
with a savory sauce (au vim blanc) con-
stitute the famous French turbot Under
this title II probably demands more re-
spect, but it is nevertheless none other
than the common and very ordinary skate
or one of his near relatives.
Another culinary secret which this book
reveals is that there are certain fish, pro-
curable at small prices, which offer un-
recognizable substitutes for the expensive
and not always obtanable sole" These
are the lemon dab" or lennon SOLE; the
witch dab" or pole dab; the long

In conclusion the little handbook on the
cooking Of fishes gives few suggestions
about vegetables. sauces and side dishes TO
