LIKE THROWING AWAY MONEY
American Cook Wastes Liquids From
Which French Cook Would Make
AppetIxIna Meal.

"Only water" says the American
and English cook, pouring off the
liquid from asparagus and caulifiower
and onions and potatoes, and thereby
sending down her kitchen sink that
of which French woman would
make an appetizing meal
In French and Italian kitchens the
soup pot stands always on the stove,
and into 1t goes every bit of water
from the following vegetables:
Onions, peas, beans, turnips, parsnips,
carrots, potatoes, asparagus, arti-
chokes, cauliflower and cabbage. The
liquid from green's" such as beet
tops, spinach, dandelion and kale can
not be used for soup, but the water
from spinach is excellent as a sauce
for fish, If slightly thickened and
favored with butter.
The soup pot, receiving all this con-
tribution of savory liquid, does not
need the great quantities of meat that
make 1t so expensive an item in
American and English economics.
The bone from a porterhouse or sir
loin steak, we'll cracked is sufficient,
or, from leg of lamb that has been
cooked rare, or from any roasted or
broiled meat.
this foundation of bone and water.
A cupful OF dried Lima beans and
half a head of cabbage, chopped, to-
gether with bit from the dinner OF
the day before, like string beans or
carrots, will give very good Milan
ese soup, of which Italians are so
fond. A teaspoonful of Extract OF
sence of the pot will produce fine con-
somme. In August, when peas are
getting too old and coarse to be eat
en- as a vegetable, strain quart of
them into the pot, after cooking them
thoroughly, add the water in which
they were boiled, thicken very slight
ly, and you will have a puree OF peas
that cannot be improved upon.
Clear vegetable soup can be pro-
duced by putting cup of finely chop
ped parsley, onion and celery into
the pot and simmering half an hour.
"Croutons," little cubes OF toasted
bread, should be dropped in at the
last moment. Rich vegetable soup is
made by adding to the pot two or
three fresh tomatoes, several onions,
q bunch of carrots, two potatoes
diced and few stalks OF celery. Any
vegetables left from a dinner should
be cut into little bits and dropped
into the soup pot.
Raw string beans, chopped and
cooked an hour in the pot, and a
handful of water cress, added half an
hour before serving, makes an un-
usual soup, which is typically French.

Standing in the Union station, fidgeting

GUS trouble would follow someone call
ed the police. Officers found the
mother and the man discussing the
daughters opposition to the wedding.
Being unable to calm the man the
police told them they must be quiet
or they would be arrested. The daugh-
ter in negligee then appeared and,
according to the police, asked If she
had changed her mind. Receiving a
reply in the negative the girl drew a
revolver from the fold of her gown
and pointed 1t at her temple. It was
knocked from her hand.
Drinks Deadly Potion.
The police ordered the girl to dress,
but before complying she turned to
the mother and asked il she intended
to marry again.
Don't be foolish" the mother re-
piled, John will make you a good
father"
AS the girl turned toward closet
as if to reach her garments she said: {:
We'll, remember what l told you"
Instead of taking down her clothing
she reached to shelf, secured bot
tie and raised it to her lips. The po-
licemen again sought to save her, but
fighting them off she managed to
drain it's contents.

MEAN TRICK PLAYED BY FATE
Chances Are That Statesman Had
Hard Time Explaining Mat

The story is that 1t happened about
like this:
A representative from Indiana came
on to Washington when congress
started up, and engaged comfortable
living quarters before his wife ar
rived. She reached there some time
later on a Saturday night. The next
morning she said:
Now. Ralph, We'll go to church, of
course. Which church have you been
attending"
"Wh-er-uh, which one. you say?" re-
peated the congressman. Why.
there's a mighty nice little church
down here Just couple Of blocks. It's
such an easy walk that I've been go
Ing there rather than to some of the
more fashionable churches"
"All right, If you feel at home there,
that's where we'll CO." said the con-
gressman's wife. I'VE haven't much
time, anyhow"
So they put on their things and went
to the little church down the street.
When they got inside they made q
startling discovery.
They were the only white people in
the church.-Philadelph Ledger.

Dry Cleaning .for White Articles.

Place the blouse or lace TO be
cleaned on a white sneet and rub
block magnesia over all parts as you
would soap. After covering it entirely
with magnesia, fold the sheet in many
thicknesses around it. Pound on one
side, then on the other; this drives
the magnesia through the material.
Leave in the powder for some hours,
repeat the process and shake out-of-
doors until entirely free from the
powder The garment will come out
thoroughly clean and little pressing
will make 1t look like new.
Fine illusion may be cleaned in this
way; also white felt hats.-Delineator

progressives together active fight

nomination of a reactionary Republican
