PROPER PLACING OF PIANO
Decided Difference in Tone VIII Sc
Found If Simple Precautions
Arc Preserved.

The proper placing of an upright
piano In a room of moderate size Is to
turn It at right angles to the side
wall, leaving room between the key,
board and the opposite wall for the
player. Then stand a table, il possible
an old-fashioned mahogany one with
folding leaf which can be turned up
against the back Of the piano. There
must, of course, be some drapery to
cover the uppolished back of the
lliano. A piece of good-looking tap
estry, brocaded silk, embroidered
crepe, or even Of %cretonne, draped
loosely yer the top and back, but not
laid In set folds, would be suitable.
On the table stand a plant, a bit OF
pottery, q brass candlestick or pos.
sibly a lamp.
From a musical standpoint the
piano is placed in the best position,
for the notes are free instead of rsuf.

SCOTCH RECIPES
0NV1 3Hl MI SaASIq aIIAOhVa
OF THE THISTLE.
eroths md Soups Soon to Be Espe-
otaily NFavored-For Slowed Ok
taii-4ist How to Brander
Steak,

The following recipes come from a
Scotch housewife who says they are
fayorftes In the land of the thistle,
her " family having used them for
many years. Scotch housewives take
special pride iu the preparation OF
wholesome BIRTHS and soups, one OF
the famous on+s being cookie leekie."
Any fowl, teucn (tender), youthful or
middle aged. ma be used, but If one
does not possAa a fowl, beef may
take It's place. tough the dish will
not be SO d~elicateVn flavor. For four
quarts of soup Se two or three
pounds Of meat, eSht or nine large
leeks and pepper nd salt to taste.
Wash the lesks t~horlughly and II they
are old scald them br a few minutes
in boiling water. IKE off the roots
and part Of the heaS and cut them
into pieces OF about az inch in length.
Put the meat and half Z the leeks into
the pot. and allow thse to simmer
gently for about half amour: add the
remaining leeks and BIZ them for
three or even four hours. Skim care
fully and season to tast with salt
and pepper.
For stewed oxtail cut thaail at the
joints, discarding one or tw,pieces at
the extreme points. Put thin into q
stewpan with just enough water to
cover them. When the waite begins
to boil, remove the scum ON Cd and
add a sliced onion and two ~arrots.
After covering let the meat INNER
gently for two and q half hour Melt
an of butter in a little pa stir
In gently half an ounce of t1ou, and |
some of the strained liquid froInfbe
meat. Allow this to boil for five omen :
minutes. Add a tablespoonful of catp
and a little lemon juice. After bron-
ing it slightly pour the sauce oyer 70
tails, which should be arranged wi
the vegetables on a dish. Serve /,
once.
TO broil. or in Scotch %parlance, to
"brander." a steak In Scotch style,
have the "brander," or %gridiron, very
hot and the fire clear and bright. A
little salt %sprinkled Eel the fire will
keep down the fame. When the bran
der is hot rub 1t all over with a piece
Of suet. This prevents the steak
from sticking. Cut the skin that lies
along the edge OF the steak in several
places and fatten slightly with a roll
Ing pin. Lay 1t on the gridiron and
turn it every half minute with steak
tongs. With a double gridjTon It Is OF
course unnecessary to use the tongs,
but in shifting the meat about while
on the gridiron steak tongs are useful,
and not as familiar as they should be
among American housewives who too
often use q fork for the purpose. A
fork should never be put into the meat
while 1t is cooking Have ready a
very hot dish and when the steak has
been turned for ten minutes lift it up
and slip it on the hot dish. Put on
a cover and set 1t into a Dutch oven.
Let it stand for ten minutes. Lacking
a Dutch oven, the American house
wife will have to content herself with
her up-to-date gas range. The steak
Is then lifted on to the hot gridiron
and turned for five minutes more.
Serve on a hot platter after spreading
lightly with butter. Americana as
they like their steaks rare, will select
q very thick steak If they desire to
cook 1t in Scotch style.

is 1T FOOD or DRUGs2

H~ousekeepers are beginning to real.
ize that cheating the grocer and the
butcher increases the druggists bill.
Many of the illnesses of the body are
caused from improper feeding. Much
of i'll health may be fed out of the
system by the use OF we'll selected and
prepared food.
1t Is not necessary to spend a great
deal of the income on food, for cheap
foods that are perfectly good and
wholesome can be bought If the mar
kets are watched. 1t Is not necessary
to dose the little people with drugs
when they ere troubled with constipa-
ton, for there are SO many good fruits
like figs, prunes, apples and ORANGES;
but these are staples which must be
Of first quality.
When We buy cheap food 1t need
not be poor food. The woman who
pays twenty and twenty-five cents for
a package of breakfast food which
could be bought for two or three cents
Is not a good manager. Whole wheat
right from the farm may be bought
for two or three cents q pound, and
there is as much Of good wholesome
food In IT as In q bought package. If 1t
ia well cooked and served Ia as dainty
a manner. Of course the cooking
takes time and fuel, but 1t may be
done In a freless cooker or at q time
when the fire is kept up for q long
time for other things.
Inere are some women, we hope not
many, who have so much leisure that
they get little exercise, and in conse-
quence are always ailing and taking
drugs for some fanCied Illness. If
tonics We're thrown u of the win
dow and that same window left open
for the pur sweet air to purify the
at night, health would stay. A
woman with a hobby, something TO
take her out Of doors, will not need
a tonic to keep her we'll.
Bees and birds, chickens, and if
one can work a garden, are all fine
outdoor medicines. There will always
be enough demand for the family
doctor, and we wouldn't do without
him, but we need to keep our bodies
in condition with less Of drugs to dis
order the functions.

White of egg Is also useful for mend

it is not always necessary that a CO

PAPER or Tint7

The choice between papered and
tinted walls is largely a matter of per
sonal taste, according to the Ladies'
Home Journal. A plain tint in q good
color Is always in good taste, but
there are, of course, more varied ef-
fects to be had from paper. Two
toned papers In inconspicuous figures
or stripes, or merely a notified sur
face giving the appearance Of the tex
ture OF material, are charming. Then
there are limitations Of grass cloths,
burlaps, etc, all giving the general
effect Of a plain wall with the added
decorative value which texture can
supply.

the rejection of Judge Hook to the
