Railroads Refuse Petition.


A week ago a conference was held be-
tween the steel and iron independents
and the traffic men Of the Southern
Railway, Louisville & Nashville, Frisco
and Illinois Central, the manufacturers
presenting arguments for the necessity
of rate reduction. Information has just
been received by them that the rail-
roads have refused their petition, and
accordingly the iron and steel men will
now proceed to present their case before
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
lii preparing it they have the assistance
of experts who have been instructed TO
draw up schedules OF the rates charged
IN various parts Of the United States FOR
the carriage of iron and steel products.
The principal question at issue, as al
ready noted, is the rate TO Ohio River
points. but discrimination to points in
New York and New England also will
probably be alleged. The contention OF
the Southern independents is that the
high rate to Ohio River points wacti-
cally shuts them out from the Western
markets and limits them TO the South
ern field. the demand from which has
never been large enough to absorb all
Of their possible production.

PAPER BAG,
COOKING
Great System Perfected by M.
Soyer, Famous London Chef.
FRUIT CAN BE COOKED DELL
CIoUSLY.

BY Martha McculIoch Williams.
A French woman, a student OF medi-
cine, has Just won her doctors de-
gree with paper on scientific cook
cry. In It she impresses forcibly the
fact that good feeding is not merely
necessary to good health, but essen
tial to its restoration. Further she
sets forth that the Stops and messes
to which invalids are commonly con-
demned not merely have no reason of
being, but that they are positively
hurtful. They overwork stomachs al
ready weak, in sympathy with debili-
tated bodies; worse still there is no
commensurate return for the work in
the way Of nourishment Yet, 1t is
manifestly impossible for sick or weak
or ailing folk, old people and little
children, to feed upon the hearty"
things. or those highly spiced and
sauced, which suit healthy persons Of
strong appetites and stronger diges-
tons.
Right here comes in the paper bag
cookery. By help of it, food is made
tender, easily digested and favored as
nature wills, with only the added saw
ors that fire brings out. Not only
meat and vegetables, but fruit as we'll.
The French lady lays stress upon the
fact that fruit is almost curative for
many things If properly prepared.
Fruit cooked in paper bag is Who'll
ly sanitary. There is, further, no
trouble of watching, of stirring, no
apprehension Of scorching.
Peaches should be scalded in boil
ing water for a minute and a half,
then the skins removed, and the fruit,
on the seed, put to stew in lightly
buttered bag. Add a tablespoonful OF
water for a dozen large peaches-less
II they are very juicy. Cook for 20
minutes in fairly hot oven, stacking
heat a third after five minutes from
the putting in. The seed gives an
adorable bitter-almond flavor. Add
sugar to taste, while the fruit is very
hot, and let stand several hours be.

sweet, very juicy peaches, cook in

ITS MANY ECONOMIES.

A dollars worth of paper bags will
be ample to cook for any average
family throughout month. Add a
box of clips at ten cents-they will be
good for another month, and still an.
other in careful hands-and the out
lay is still inconsiderable. Add still
further fifty cents for greasinE-a
pound of lard, half pound of butter,
half pound of drippings-and the
total is still more than moderate. Not
wlthstanding, 1t is more than plenty
OF US would care to spend monthly
merely in the interest Of flavor or
ever Of ease. Plenty more Of US like
to take duties laboriously, feeling that
thus we win to the kingdom of thrift.
So If there were no economic offset,
paper bag cooking would have to be
reckoned either fad or luxury. 1t
Is neither-it has come to stay.
Say you pay three to four dollars
a month for gas-which is about a
fair average. If the paper bag cook.

paid for itself at one fell swoop.
Next comes the saving in quantity
Of food cooked. Paper bag cooking Is
one-ffth to one.fourth ahead there.
In pot cooking the scales show a
shrinkage treble that Of bag cooking.
This is a saving well worth while, yet
far from telling the whole story.
Things bag-cooked nourish better be-
cause they are more readily digested.
Set this extra nourishment at one
tenth of the food cost, and the food

Right there you have more the price,
Of bags, grease. clips, etc. almost the
cost Of the gas.
But even then the sum in domestic
economy is just fairly begun. Paper
bag cooking not only saves thus mega
lively by preventing loss and insur-
ing full edibillty. but positively
in many. many ways, as. for example,
in the food bought Round steak Is
more nourishing than any other-but
the fact has been held to be sfiset by
the extra dentists bill the eating Of It
necessitated. Paper bag cooking makes
It as tender as porterhouse Itself
moreover, there is no bone to be thrown
away-nothing but clear meat. And
the favorable difference In price runs
from eight to ten cents the pound.
Living Is dearer in every way-the
one possible alienation Of this In
creaslng cost, without sklmping Of APP
petites, is in buying things less costly
and so cooking them as to make the
difference all in their favor.
Paper bag cooking will do 1t; 1t has
done it for me. Let's recapitulate.
Say one uses one hundred and fifty
bags in the month, and then allow sew
enty-ive cents for clips, lard, butter.
and dripping. This gives an initial
debit of two dollars beginning the &C.
