The Cup That Cheers.

Women who pride themselves on
their tea making assert that tea to be
good, should be made in an earthen
pot never in a metal one.
Tea is never good when long stand
ing, but in some cases it cannot be
helped. 1t should be poured off the
leaves into another heated pot and
covered with "cosey."
If cream is taken less expensive
grade of tea may be used than when
lemon is preferred.
An old-fashioned idea is to drop a
few shavings of dried orange peel into
the pot in which the tea is made
Some like this, while others believe
that it spoils the flavor of the bever-
age.
Bits of cinnamon and two or three
cloves dropped in are other way of
varying the flavor of the cup that
cheers.

old Bread. MAKING Recipe surely L.
bor-oaver and Possibly Worth
Trial. ~

Bread making Without kneadIns
seems somewhat OF 4 novelty. but this
recipe is over hfty years old. and
comes from the housekeeping book OF
an old lady who was noted cook.
The recipe IL called Aunt Mary's
Bread" and runs as followss
Take one quart Of milk and water.
half OF each (blood warm) two table
spoonfuls of graduated sugar. one Ia
blespoonful each OF butter and sweet
pure lard. one-half teaspoonfui OF salt
one cake ef compressed yeast and
enough twice sIfted four to make q
soft. smooth dough
Rub the butter and lard into the
-four Sift In the sugar and salt. Dis.
solve the yeast in little water from
the one quart and add. Begin with q
small amount OF -four and mixing
with spoon. and beating thoroughly.
gradually add more -four. until It is
dry enough Just not to stick to the
pan. Do not touch It with your hands.
When dry enough, set It to rise In a
warm place.
The next morning. or when It Is suf-
iciently risen. take It up on your
Toured hands. touching lightly and
gently just enough to mold It into
leaves, and put 1t in pans to rise again
from about fifteen minutes to half an
hour. When 1t begins to blister put
into a moderate oven.
This will make to medium size
loaves that will cut as smooth as cake.
II 1t browns too rapidly, cover with
paper, to prevent the crust from get
ting tough.

GOOD USE FOR LEFToyERs
Variety, or a Combination May
Be Employed.

For these use either cold chicken
and ham, or veal and ham, or even
cold beef or a mixture of cold meats.
One pound of good short crust pastry.
two cupfuls of cold meat, one cupful
of sauce, one tablespoonful of finely
chopped parsley, salt and pepper, and
one egg. Roll out the pastry to about
quarter of an inch in thickness, then
stamp 1t into rounds slightly larger
than the gem pans, allowing two
rounds to each gem pan. Cut the meat
into small dice; if chicken and ham,
or veal and ham are being used, add
white sauce; If dark meat, use brown
sauce, stir the meat into the sapce,
add the parsley, salt and pepper to
taste. Grease the gem pans, line each
with pastry, put on the lid, not forget
ting to first wet the edges. Make a
hole in the top of each, brush the top
of the patty with beaten egg and bake
them in hot oven for 20 minutes
Put them on sieve until cold

Their Value Has Been Recognized
From the Earliest Days Of Which
We Have Any Record.

Certain fruits have from time inn
memorial been employed therapeu-
tically in various "fruit cures and.
although the therapeutic effects 10
certain affections do not rest on any
very solid scientific basis, they are,
nevertheless, not to be overlooked.
The grape cure, which has been
raised to the dignity Of treatment
at certain foreign resorts, consists
in the daily ingestion of from one
to six pounds Of grapes. Half Of the
amount is taken on an empty stom-
ach in the morning, quarter be-
fore lunch, and the remainder before
dinner. The strawberry cure is Of
more recent advent, but it is of his
torical interest, in that it cured Lin
naeus Of an attack of the govt in
1880.
The lemon cure is particularly de
rected against rheumatism, and a
complete course of treatment re-
quires the use Of 200 lemons. The
juice is given pure or mixed with
sweetened water, beginning with two
lemons a day and adding two more
each day until the juice of twenty
or thirty lemons is taken day.
After that the number is progress
sively diminished. No Trustworthy
data are available with regard to the
effects Of the lemon cure in rheuma-
tism. Excellent results have, how
ever, been recorded in affections Of
the liver and in gallstones, and it is
to have relieved sundry cases
Of dropsy. 1t might be suicidal to
take many lemons a day without
a physician.

kneading into a round cake. Flatten
1t with a rolling pin and place on a
hot griddle. Brown on one side. then
turn and brown on the other. If pre-.
ferred, this scone may be baked in
the oven. The raisins. or seeds. O,
both, may be omitted.
