Under no circumstances let the
casserole be put on the stove without
water OF fat in il. says the Indianap-
oils News. II this is done the dish
Will crack.
Avoid sudden changes OF tempera-
ture with the casserole; that is, do
not take IL from the hot stove or
oven and place It In cold water or in
a wet sink: this viii prove disastrous
to the dish.
Casserole cooking requires only
moderate heat: IL something is being
cooked in the casserole at the same
time that intense heat is required for
something else. take the precaution OF
setting the casserole in a pan of wa
ter.
II the cover of the casserole does
not set very closely. thus allowing
steam to escape too freely, IL is well
to spread a strip of cloth wet with a
-four and water paste and press 1t over

Fight na Poster Display by Salon Exhibit Artistic Ones II

Duran, had done their poster" and
art was to be brought home to the
people by this democratic start
There were art auction sales OF early
examples. Poster shops and specialists
grew up. Collectors of posters bid
against each other: bought Impressions
before the letter. and employed con-
sultants. In cities of South Africa and
the American middle west the bars
and billiard rooms of social clubs were
hung with Paris posters"
Alas! the novelty wore of. Poster
collecting proved a bulky undertaking.
The young artists who had made them
were not specialists. and their SUBJ
sequent productions lacked go" The
artistic poster faltered.
And for years its fate trembled In
the balance.
Even today, when real art specialists
have raised II to new heights, the
poster Of sweetness and light has still
to win Its permanent triumph. Good
Judges say that 1t will succeed. because
it produces the greatest advertising
returns.
But has the municipality right to
tear down ugly posters?
Can the Paris Salon boost beauty In

ty-six.
1.-The line of boundary stones begins
less than half mile above Chain bridge,
only a short distance from the bank of
the canal" continued Mr.. Woodward.
This, the first one of the Maryland side,
Is marked number 4, as the three pre-
ceding 1t were placed in Virginia. This
first marker on the Maryland border Is
one Of those which is set at a greater
distance than one mile from the one be-
fore. and is so marked. Whenever the
end of mile was at a point In the wa
ter for instance, the surveyors had in
structions to go ahead or backward, and
place the stone on firm ground. This
was done In this case, and the stone
bears the words Miles 4 and 100 F. :
The stone itself Is in the woods, and,
although 1t leans 81 ghtly, Is In compare
lively good condition. The stone is about
one and a quarter miles from Glen Echo.
and two and half miles from Cabin

on the Maryland border. 1892
1.-The next marker is located in an an
cient wood only a short distance from the
inlet of the receiving reservoir of the
water supply of the District. An inter-
esting fact concerning this stone is that
1t is marked by bullets. These may
simply have been the result Of sports
men, but inasmuch as both Fort Mans
field and Fort Simmons. earthworks

were near they may be soldiers bullets
