way in which each one agrees with
the shape of the hat that is worn.

ICED BEEF TEA is EXCELLENT
During Hot Weather 1t Will Be Found
More Acceptable Than the Hot
Beverage.

Where beef-tea Is required on a hot
summer day it is sometimes more ac-
ceptable to the invalid II served iced,
and In condensed form. Prepared as
fellows it is quite palatable: Cut up
a pound of lean, juicy sirloin steak In
to pieces of about two inches square.
Grease a clean pan with butter and
put it on a fire of red-hot Goals, and
as soon as ever the pan Is hot toss
the pieces of steak in it. turning them
rapidly this way and that way with
fork until scared on every side.
See that not drop of juice Is in the
pan, and that each separate square
of beef is thoroughly heated through
before you finish your work.
Take the pieces now, one by one,
and squeeze through wooden lemon
squeezer which has been standing in
boiling water into cold bowl. Ex-
tract all the juice from the piece, and
you will have the finest beef essence.
Set the bowl in pan filled with
cracked ice. The coldness of the beef
essence-which you serve in tum-
bier. having added the necessary salt,
and with tiny triangle of toast-does
not affect its qualities.

COOKING PEAS AND CARROTS
Many Ways of Preparation to Suit the
Individual Taste-Peas Served
in Turnip Shells.

One way Of preparing peas, and for
my own taste there is none better:
Blend together two tablespoonfuls Of
butter and one tablespoonful Of flour.
one-half teaspoonful Of salt and little
pepper, for each pint of peas. When
the peas are soft stir this into the
peas and cook five minutes. IN pre-
pairing them in that way all the flavor
and nutritive value Of the peas are re-
much water; there should be only
enough to cook the peas in, which Is
scarcely enough to cover them.
> To Cook Young carrots-Wash and
scrape the carrots and cut in quarters
lengthwise; then holding the quarters
together place on board and cut
'crosswise through the four quarters in
one-half inch pieces. Boil twenty min
utes or until soft in just enough water
to cover. They are very nice prepared
by the same, recipe given for peas; und
just before Serving add two teaspoon
fuls Of parsley finely MINCED to each
pint of carrots.
Peas and Carrots.-One cup Of car
rots cut in small pieces as stated and
two cups of shelled peas. Cook the
carrots and peas together until soft.
Drain; add four tablespoonfuls Of
cream and one tablespoonful Of butter,
one-half teaspoonful of salt and one
eighth Of q teaspooonful of pepper.
Heat over hot water and serve as soon
as; hot.
Peas Served In TurnIp SheIIs.-Use
the fiat turnips for this dish and
choose them near Of a size. Wash and
pare the turnips and with a sharp
knife scoop out the center, leaving a
shell one-haf inch thick. Steam the
turnips and be careful not tn overlook
them or they will fall to pieces. Put
a folded napkin in the serving dish
and place the turnips on 1t; shake
little salt and pepper over them, and
fill with cooked peas which have been
seasoned with butter, salt and pepper.
Do not waste the turnip which was
scooped out, but cook and mash 1t aud

moved the members of the dominant
race The judge would have attached
himself oto the first group, but he
heard a whispered question, and the
answer:

Clearly it was not for him to mix
with these outsiders, these curiosity
seekers. He crossed the lawn to the
house, and mounted the steps. In the
doorway was big Steve. while groups
of men stood about in the hall, the

They entered the library, and the
Judge motioned Steve to close the

those people to withdraw-you may

FOR DINNER In WOODS
VARIOUS DAINTlES THAT BELONG
TO THE PICNIC MENU.
Veal Loaf Always Faithful Standby
DeviIed Eggs Preferable to Plain
Hard Boiled-Fred Potatoes
Add Zest to Meal.

A veal loaf is always appetizing in
the woods. An excellent recipe Is:
Three pounds and a half of finely
chopped veal-the leg is best-m1xed
with thee well-beaten eggs, into which
is stirred a grated nutmeg, a table
spoon each of black pepper. thyme and
salt, a teaspoonful Of onion juice and
a dash of cayenne. Add three table
spoonfuls of cream and three water
crackers rolled fine. Mix in long
/ loaf, dot with butter and bake about
an hour in a moderate oven, basting
frequently.
Veal loaf may be sliced thin and
packed In paraff1n paper in a fiat box,
but dries out less II taken to the pic
mic whole Garry a sharp carving
knife, as thick slices are unappetizing.
Deviled eggs are usually more pop
ular than plain hard boiled ones. Boil
the eggs fully half an hour, throw
at once into cold water and do not
shell until chilled Cut the eggs IN
half Iengthwise. run the yolk through
a esieve and mix to paste with
salt spoon of mustard, cayenne pep
per, salt and tablespoonful Of finely
chopped parsley to a dozen eggs. OIL
or melted butter can be used for miK-
ing the paste.
Deviled eggs carry better II both
halves are filed, then put together
and each egg wrapped in waxed pa
per. Or they can be put in shallow
tin box, with waxed paper between the
layers. On hot days keep the box

grounds ..
If each QUE brings a certain allot-
ted portion, 6he could take fresh eggs
for scrambling-allow three for each
persona small preserve glass OF but
ter, salt and pepper and ski0N or
a chafing dish, whichever " more
convenient. s-
Nothing is better than fresh scram-
bled eggs at a picnic, unless 1t is
fried potatoes Boil the potatoes at
home-in their jackets-and take a
good supply of butter for frying. A
pound can be carried in tin kettle
with ice packed around 1t. Have
SQdTD huI6 lOI dhu q AVIS
or short cake turner for stirring.
Leftover cold chicken or veal makes
an excellent HOT dish for picnic. Cut
the meat into small cubes at home
and wrap in waxed paper. Make
white sauce from tablespoonful but
ter and one, Of flour to every point OF
milk. This Is the allowance for
quart Of meat. Season highly with
salt, pepper and a little onion Juice.
An appetizing sandwich for a picnic
is made from slices Of brown bread on
which is spread a mixture Of chopped
green peppers, to which Is added
can of sweet peppers or pimentos, a
little minced parsley, bound together
with highly seasoned mayonnaise.
Where a hot sandwich is liked for
q picnic, have two thin slices Of
white bread buttered; spread one
with a little chutney, the other with
grated Parmesan cheese. Fry an egg,
place it on the cheese, and press the
other half well over 1t.

sheriff.
The sheriff was gone from the room
only a few moments, and returned
with the information that Hicks was
down at the bayou, which was to be
dragged
"Why?" inquired the judge.

Refreshing Beverages.

Any fresh fruit makes a delicious
drink when the juice. squeezed from
1t, is strained, sweetened and filed
with cold soda or aerated water. Or
syrup can be made to be kept on hand
by boiling the Juice with sugar. To
make the drinks use a few spoonfuls
of this syrup and fill the glass with
water, plain or carbonated.
The most delicious lemonade or
limeade can be had at moments no.
tice if the Juice of the fruit be kept
on hand, mixed with sugar to taste.
1t is simplicity itself to pour water
over this and the drink is ready.
