Two Dainty Salads.

A good salad is made by covering
crisp hearts of lettuce with chopped
olives and sliced red Spanish peppers
On top put shredded cucumber mari
mated in French dressing and garnish
With a spoonful of mayonnaise.
Cut the top from seedless California
oranges and remove the pulp in as
large pieces as possible. Skin each
section and mix with 1t shredded pine
apple, seeded white grapes and few
preserved cherries. Marinate in
French dressing and serve the ice
cold fruit in the orange shells.
This same recipe can be made into
a compete or even sweet salad by
adding the Juice of tangerine oranges
and a dash of maraschino or sherry
and a little sugar, instead Of thu
French dressing.

SEES LIFE WORTH LIVING.

Milosav Mitch, of Semendria,
Servia, was so alarmed at the pros
pect of wearing in his coffin the in
evitable wreath of fresh howers-a
stigma of Observation-Disclosures when
he felt death approaching, not long
ago, at the age of forty-six he sent
for an old schoolmatte, the only
spinster in the town, and begged her
to marry him. The ceremony was
performed in what everyone believed
to be the death chamber, but the
care of Nine. Mitch, who acknowl-
edged that she loved in silence for
over thirty years, wrought a Won
drous change in the invalid. He is
now a confirmed matchmaker, and
has just organized a guild for pro
noting early marriages.

HARDTAck IN THE NAVY.

For some years bareback has been
pretty much cut out in the navy, al
though it makes a fine ration for
hard work and active service. Sew
eral tons have been shipped down
toward Cuba. Canned beans are
good to stick to a marines ribs and
to keep out the bullets, SO few gross
of cases of them have been rushed
on to take the place of the little old
time navy beans which have to be
cooked some hours to get them soft
and well done. Canned beans are
pretty good for marching.-New

NEW MAYS or COOKING LAMB
Many Prefer, for Change, 70 Have
the Meat Taste Like VensIon
Some Recipes.

Pull on all the skin from leg Of
lamb; put II in an earthen dish and
pour over It quart Of sour milk (well
beaten). Add some sliced onion,
slice of lemon, six pepper corns, one
bay leaf and some salt. Leave the
meat in the dish from five to eight
days and turn It once a day. Then
wash off the milk and lard the meat
with strips CT bacon In roasting pan
put remnants OF the bacon. a piece Of
butter and some rinds OF pumper-
nickel or rye bread, little onion and
sliced carrot Roast one hour; while
roasting add a cup Of sour cream
Another Way.--Take off all the fat
and skin from a leg Of lamb and lard
1t with strips of bacon, on which some
pepper has been put Put the meat
in an earthen dish and add some
onion, two bay leaves, some carrots
and some peppers; then pour over it
a quart of white vinegar and turn
daily for four days. Without washing,
put the meat in the roasting pan and
brown In butter Roast one hour,
gradually adding some of the vinegar
in which the meat has been picked.
A Simpler Way.-Skin leg of lamb
and take off all the fat Soak nap
kin in vinegar and leave it around
the meat for three days, taking care
that the cloth never gets dry. 1t is
best to put fresh vinegar on every
day. The fourth day lard the meat
and let it remain in buttermilk one
day. Then dry off and fry in butter.
Add some sweet cream to the gravy

10 Restore color nIeaehed By ACID.

o Restore Color bIeacned ny Acids
When color on fabric has been ac-
cidentally or otherwise destroyed by
acid, ammonia is applied to neutralize
or counterfeit the effect of the acid,
after which an application Of chloro-
form will in almost all cases restore
the original color. The application
of ammonia is common, but that of
chloroform is not so well known. In
the case of your fine slate-colored
serge skirt discolored by using strong
oxalic acid to remove fruit stains,
touch the spots lightly, using, If pos
sible, fine brush. or a bit of cotton
pad on the plain end Of match. Have
the pad almost dry and see that 1t
affects every part Of the stained
place, then apply the chloroform in
the same way. Afterward press the
injured portion under a cloth using q
cool iron and. your skirt will be nice
lY restored.

woman at the zenith of her ma
tronly beauty entered the room
and graciously greeted me. Her
brown eyes had golden glints in
them. Her hair, a bronze brown,
was rolled back from her face and
confined in a becoming Juliette
cap made of bronze braid and tiny
pearl beads. Her complexion had
lost some of the freshness of
youth, but still retained its color
in cheeks and lips. Her gown was
of lavender charmeuse, made
somewhat fuller than is the fash
ion of today. Bits of lace were
placed upon the gown as garni-
ture and softly fell away from the
slightly low neck and elbow
sleeves.
Mrs. Wilson seemed to me to
be the type of the woman one sees
in the towns from $1,000 to 10o,-
600 inhabitants, who has had
leisure for culture and travel and
has used it to good fashion. It
was easy to see that she. cares lit
tie for fashion, except where she
considers it artistic and suitable
for herself, and l gathered, as
much from her manner and dress
as fro miner conversation, that she
cares little for the society which
is only bent upon amusing itself.

constrained social conventions
that must surround the White

II am never bored with real

upon any real work which is be-
ing done in the world, even if it
and its methods are of the sim
plest description. The everyday
people and the common duties of
everyday life hold my interest
always"
While Mrs. Wilson is not at all
conventional in her ideas of social
life, she shows a conservatism,
perhaps inherited from three gen
erations of Presbyterian minis
tiers, in being a little reluctant to
take on all the ideas of the "new
woman" / asked her if she be-
lieved in votes for women" She
hesitated a little and then said:
my daughter, who is interested
in settlement work, believes in
giving the electoral franchise to
women" and then she added,
with little twinkle in her brown
eyes: II guess I'm on the fence"
Mrs. Wilson is very fond of her
daughters, another of whom is a
fine musician and a third who has
inherited her mothers talent for
painting. She speaks with pride
and a little awe of her second
daughters ability to make a
speech. and saws that the first

superintendent of the mine.
Bloodhounds we're brought up from
the military headquarters at Pratt and
early today they struck two trails
which are being followed over the
densely wooded mountains. These
attempts at incendarism are the most
daring since the strike was inaugural

Supporting T. r.

Mitchell, S. D., Sept. 20.-A
mass state convention of republicans
here late last night adopted resolu-
tions In which Roosevelt and the pro-
gressive candidates in South Dakota
were severely denounced.
The resolutions also declared that
the Huron convention presidential

against the election Of President Taft,
thus disfranchising those who desire
to vote for him.
The action of Senator Coe /. Craw-

Committeeman Thomas Thocson from
South Dakota, in supporting Roosevelt
was denounced. The convention de-
manded that the chairman Of the ma

and appoint republican for the posi-
ton, recommending ]. F. Halliday for
the place.
