SERVING THE TOMATO TAKE PLACE OF MEAT
DELICIOUS VEGETABLE SOUPS
FOR THE HOT WEATHER.
Something Of Novelty Is One Call.
ing for Fresh Garden Peppers
Onion Soup Brought to Per
lection In France.

An housekeeper whose family
doesn't care very much for flesh food
in summer can find any number of de-
licious vegetable soups to take the
place of meat decoctions, and having
once formed the habit of using them
1t is likely to be a. lasting one.
The following soup, calling for fresh
garden peppers, is a novelty: Mince
three large peppers and three small
onions together and stew them gently,
till tender, in a little butter--about
two poonfuls-without brown
ing. Then thicken to paste with
generous tablespoonful of -four and
gradually stir the mixture into a quart
Of boiling milk. Season with salt and
pepper. Gradually add also, stirring
well, the yolks of three eggs, and then
remove from the fire Immediately and
serve very hot with croutons. Do not
let 1t cool long or 1t may curdle. If
one or two Of the peppers are a
bright red, instead of green, they will
lend pretty tints to the soup.
For French onion soup, which re-
turned travellers describe as food for
the gods, fry four onions in two table
spoonfuls of butter or very nice soup
fat. The latter Is to be preferred be-
cause it is cheaper. When they are
quite brown add a scant half cupful
Of -four, stirring all the time. When
the -four is brown mix in carefully "a
little at a time) about three pints of
boiling water or stock. Season the
whole with salt and pepper and put
the soup near the back of the stove,
where it will merely simmer for half
an hour. Mash two potatoes and add
enough warm milk to them to make a
PURGE. Stir this PURGE into the soup
and If too thick add a little fresh
milk. Then strain and boil ten min
utes. Serve very hot with croutons.
The following combination of rice
and lettuce makes a delicious soup:
Have ready the large leaves of three
good-sized heads of lettuce. After
draining, chop them up and put them
in saucepan with about a fifth of a
pound Of butter and cook for FIVE
minutes, stirring frequently. Stir the
whole into two quarts of white stock
Season with tablespoonful of salt, a
teaspoonful of pepper, half a tea
spoonful of grated nutmeg and a soup
bouquet. Stir in also four ounces of
well-cleaned rice. Cover the kettle
and let it cook for three-quarters of
an hour. Then strain the soup
through fine sieve. Let the soup
heat once again, but do not let it
boil. Stir in a pint of sweet cream
and serve very hot, with croutons.

Good in Spinach.

Very young spinach is the best, and
the fresh, juicy stalks and all can be
cooked and minced together.
Poached eggs on spinach form a
familiar dish, but the Italians vary it
agreeably. First cook the spinach;
then strain and mince it, and then
stew it gently with butter; then beat
up six new-laid eggs with it and
stir these, and one ounce of Parmesan
cheese into the spinach with a wood.
en- spoon. Toss about rapidly until
the mixture thickens, but do not let IT
boil. Serve on toast
To cook spinach the good cook uses
no water. First it has been thoroughly
cleaned and washed until every grain
OF sand has disappeared. Then put in
covered dish on range, stirring often;
sufficient moisture will develop. By
using extra water much of the good
disappears when it is poured off. II
takes about twenty minutes to cook it

A discolored bean pot may be re-

Lower the temperature of an oven

Kitchenettes.

Many housewives believe in boiling
new earthenware before using it, as
tbis effectually toughens and hardens
N. This is particularly efficacious in
the case of ordinary brown kitchen
ware, the articles being placed in a
large pan of cold water which is then
brought slowly to boil. After being
allowed to boil for ten minutes remove
the pan and allow the water to cool
before taking out the ware.
A kitchen bouquet for fiavoring
soups can easily be made. Take few
sprigs Of parsley and wrap them
around peppercorns. whole cloves, q
bay leaf and other herbs that are at
hand. Tie up tightly. This can be re
moved from the soup without trouble.
To make string beans or cabbage
tender in cooking them and also tc
shorten the time required for cooking
the latter vegetable, add a pinch OF
baking soda to the water in which
they are boiled. This. used judicious
ly, makes the vegetables as fresh and
tender as when they came from thu
garden.

poison because member of the night

later, and Italians soon commenced
