Rice Used in Hash.

Rice may very well be substituted
for potatoes in making hash, when
either from high price or poor quality
of potatoes such substitution is de-
sired. To make a savory rice hash
put a rounding tablespoon of butter
into saucepan with one-fourth cup
of finely chopped onion and cook un-
til it turns yellow; add one and one
half cups of finely chopped cold cook
ed beef and cup or more of cooked
rice; saltspoon of pepper and half
a level teaspoon of salt. Add three
tablespoons of strained tomato and
cover. Cook slowly until the under
side has Drowned, then turn and
brown the other side if desired Serve
on a warm platter and garnish with
parsley or cress. Sufficient water or
stock should be added if not moist
enough to make the mixture hold to-.
gether when stirred

METHOD OF TESTING LARD
How One May Be Sure 1t Is Ready
for Its Work-Best Shirt
Bosom Board.

To test the heat of lard in deep
trying, put in a piece of bread, and if
it browns while you count 60, your fat
is hot enough for raw material. If it
browns while you count 40, it is right
for food prepared from cooked mate
rial, such as croquettes. Use plenty
of lard, which should be strained and
put away for future use.
The best shirt bosom board is one
made of seasoned wood, a foot wide,
one foot and half long, and one inch
thick. This should be covered with
two or three thicknesses of flannel,
drawn tight and literally tackled. Make
outside strips of white cotton cloth fit
ted to the board and put on clean
slip every week.
In mixing cake dough, use cups of
exactly the same size for measuring
the different ngredients.-Nationa
Food Magazine.

TWO GOOD FISH DELICACIES
Smoked Eels May Be Made Very Pal
atable for Those Who Like Them
Excellent Clam Pie.

To Smoke Eels-Clean medium sized
eels, leaving the skin on. Wash, dry
and rub each one lightly with salt. Set
in a cool place for "a hours turning
twice during that time. Put stick
through the eyes and hang about ten
cells on the stick over a barrel that
has had the bottom removed. Set the
barrel over a pan of burning charcoal
with enough sawdust sprinkled on
top of the Goals to make good smoke.
Cover the barrel with linen sacking
and smoke about three days, accord
ing to the size of the fish.
Clam Pie-Take medium sized
clans, uniform in size, lay on board
and cut in pieces, not too small. Chop
ine quarter-pound salt pork, streak
ed lean and fat. Peel and slice in
even pieces as many potatoes as you
desire.
Put in saucepan one tablespoonful
butter and two tablespoons -four.
When blended, pour in little by little
a cupful or more of milk and clam

clam mixture, placing the sliced pota-
.oes on top and an inverted cup in the
center of the dish. Cover with thin
crust and bake.

Restless Senatorial Fans.

Restlessness was noticeable among
the baseball fans in the senate and
the house along about $3.50 p. m. Even
turning the button and starting the
electric fans was of no avail. Every
five minutes during the progress of
a debate or between roll calls certain
solons could be seen quietly slipping
out to get the latest information from
the American League park in Phila-
delphia. Although this was at the
crisis of the convention contests for
choosing delegates to the National
Republican convention, interest for
the moment centered entirely upon
the diamond at Philadelphia, and the
animosities of debate were forgotten
when two senators whispered with all
the eager enthusiasm of boyhood
days: whats the scorer"
The great national game will not
Weld interest even to the presidential
election. Philosophers have often in
sisted that the annual recurring base
ball contagion is a safety valve for the
expIosiye energies of the American
neople, who are otherwise too
wrapped un in their business and

Tripe for convaIescents.

One pound of fresh dressed tripe,
wash it in cold water, cut into neat
square pieces, take out nearly all the
fat. Put it into a bright new stew
pan with salt spoonful of salt, the
same of sifted sugar and of fresh-made
mustard and about a pint of milk Boil
up slowly, skim, then simmer fully for
three hours, skim and stir frequently
to prevent the tripe burning at the
bottom. Mix a small dessertspoonful
of -four with wine glass of cold milk,
stir in, simmer five minutes longer.
Take out the tripe, place it on hot
dish, pour the sauce over, serve imme-
diately.

A Hint.

The good housekeeper has a novel
way of keeping clean the top of the
gas range. She places over the entire
top piece of asbestos paper, cutting
holes for the burners. The paper
catches and holds all overflows Of
food and prevents them from falling
into the range, where it is difficult to
reach and clean. By using the paper
while cooking and removing it when
the range is not in use, the work Of
frequent cleaning, backing and polish
ing as well, is reduced to a minimum.

AS this is the last court of the year
for Laurens, Mr.. Aull is making his
farewell rour," as he expresses it. In
fact he will complete the circuit this
month, after which there will be no
courts until February. His successor
will be named by Judge F. B. Gary, of
Abbeville.
Mr.. Aull is regarded as one Of the
most efficient stenographers in the
State, and all who know him recognize
his peculiar fitness for the position OF
private secretary to the chief execu-
tive. All his Laurens friends, therefore,
wish for him continued success and
happiness which he abundantly de-
serves.
A co-incidanI IN connection with the
appointment of Mr.. Aull as the COVER
nor's secretary is the fact that his
father, Col. E. H. Aull, editor of the
Newberry Herald and News, held this
same position during the administra-
tion of Governor NJ B. McSweeney.
The Herald takes this occasion to
renew it's appreciation of the many
courtesies Mr.. Aull has shown in fur
nishing full and readable reports of
the. court proceedings from term to
term. In addition to being an expert
stenographer, Mr.. Aull is an accom-
plished newspaper writer, well-knoWn
throughout the State.
