DISH FROM LEFT.OVERS.

The daily problem of keeping with in certain allowance and seeing that nothing is wasted is a constant one.
 When you have few sweet pota- toes left from meal, slice them, sprinkle with brown sugar and bits of butter and bake in the oven.
 Escalloped potatoes prepared from cold boiled potatoes and a little white sauce and s,nion juice sprinkled with green peas, also leftover, makes an- other appctizing dish. ...lA3 ;s i;;i ' When you have little strong cream cheese left over, grate it and mix. with beaten white of egg, season with salt, cayenne and pack in the, cheese Jars or serve on circlets of toast and heat To be served with tea.
 ss.Ginger bread baked in thin sheets, cut in rounds and put together Sand w1ch fashion with cream Or cottage cheese make delicious little tea cakes.
 When little pastry is left and one has time to do it, very pretty little baskets may be made by putting the PdSIly ONcI 1uVS1 ICu p1Cly pdAo 0AN baking. For the handles, twist the pastry in strips and lay around ba- king powder can to bake. Fill the baskets with preserves or ices and in- sert the handles. These make very effective deserts.
 If ono has a bit of orange marma- Jade left over, add 1t to the mince meat.
 Cold vegetables of all kinds may be converted into good salads. If there are several varieties, season and pile them in groups with parsley in be- tween. Carrots, green peas and pota- toes, a few of each, in this way make good mixed salad, and one can take the preferred vegetable when being served
 When making a dessert for dinner. like custard, just do not add the su- gar until some of the thickened GUS tard is removed, and that may be ha- vored with vanilla and sweetenei The rest may be seasoned for salad drcss- ing. the one process doing for hotf dishes.

 Milly Rolling makes a winsome Kate A:mtage," Toms sweetheart. Miss Rel'irs is very young and it is said this is the ii. st important role cha has ever cl2saycd. She has t sweet, high soprano voice and had to respond to several oncorss, es- pccially the chorus of the "Cuddle' song, which is enchanced by clever chorus work.
 Miss Fredsrica Going the always happy Mary Winters is very pretty and the hardest worker in the cast. The singing of the popu- lar "Yama Yama Man. falls to her lot, and while she hasn't much of a voice she had to respond to many encores because she was so good natursd about it.
 The chorus was mediocre, Tatnef below the average of the Gaites' of fsrings, but then business has been dull this season and the producers have to cut them down as much as possible. The one or two out-of-the- ordinary mechanical effects seem to please. This is probably the last of the "Three Twins,' and like other popular light shows it will have to take it's place in the "has been list.'
