PERFECT ROAST MUTTON.

Writing so much Of cakes and
sweets and formal dinner that can be
cooked in paper bags has brought me
almost to the pass where feel sur
feited of such fare. It has made me
wonder, too, if my readers will not
be likewise glad to get back to home
lier fare, at least for one day. and
that fare possibly perfect roast Daut-
ton.
Choose a saddle, T. you want the
very best. Buy it day ahead OF the
cooking, have the rib-ends cut short
and neatly rounded, wash it quickly,
salt it very, very lightly. brush over
with melted butter and vinegar-a Tea
spoonful of each mixed-and keep In
a cool, airy place until ready for cook
ing. If it Is hanging outside, 1t should
be we'll wrapped in damp cheese cloth
and hence will need no more washing
when brought in for cooking. Grease
a bag that will be loose fit, very
thickly, clarified drippings answering
for this better tlan butter. Sprinkle
fine herbs in powder lightly over the
meat, also a very little more salt, red
and black pepper, and a few drops OF
tobasco, chilli vinegar or Worcester
shire sauce. Melt a teaspoonful of tart
Jelly, currant or crabapple, in spoon
full of claret, lemon Juice or vinegar,
add a teaspoonful of good butter, mix
we'll, end brush the meat we'll over
with the mixture. Save any remain"
der for the gravy later on. shce an
onion very thin and ny upon top OF
the meat. Place it in your creased
bag with little more butter, seal,
cook in hot oven five to seven min
utes, then slack heat hall and hn1sn
the cooking, allowing eighteen to
twenty minutes to the pound.
Layer beef Is hearty, tasteful and
not too costly. Get as much round
meat as you need, have it cut in thin
slices and the slices divided length
wise into strips. Make a square or
oblong mold from paper bag, but
ter it we'll, after clipping the corners
firmly, lay upon the bottom either
toasted breadcrumbs or thinly sliced
potatoes and onions, dot with butter
and cover with a layer of beef, cut to
fit the mold neatly, and seasoned with
salt and pepper. Butter the meat on
both sides If you like things very
rich. Repeat the layers until the
mold is full. then pour over little
milk and enough tomato catsup to
moisten the upper layer. Dot with
bits of butter. Set the mold inside a
creased bag, put on trivet In the oven,
using either upper or lower shelf,
and cook thoroughly, allowing twenty
minutes to the pound.

Los Angeles, Cal.-'Grey Ghost" q
loW-swung racing car, with It's Cog
gled, supposed owner at the wheel.
and with the exhaust roaring and
laundering protest from its powerful
engines, has been sweeping through
Glendora and surrounding towns up
on a piratical mission that has spread
terror in its wake.
Along foothill boulevards, the
stretch of wellpaved road that leads
from Los Angeles through Glendora,
the pirate car and its owner have sped
night after night upon marauding ex-
petitions. It is only when the car is
out on the boulevards, where other
cars are vending their way to and
from the little cities near the foothills,
that the "Grey Ghost" is let loose with
all It's speed. Then it flashes by other
automobiles, giving the occupants a
moving>picture view of a swift-speed-
ing car with a driver huddled behind
the wheel, mere blur of a human
being, whizzing on.
Seven times tho auto pirate" and
his gray streak Of q car have been
seen by orange growers who live
along the boulevard. That he is the
one who is committing the various
depredations which have aroused resi-.
dents along the mountain road has
been made certain by traces that he
has left after bold crimes. The men
who have seen the driver of the "Grey
Ghost" say he handles his car with
all the skill of professional racing
driver. and that he evidently knows

GOOD THINGS FOR HUSBANDS
CRONiES.
Rx Martha Mcculloch Williams.

BY Martina McCuIIocn Williams.
Mans part at home is to endure all
things and eat all things, smiling as
though he liked it all, whatever the
facts in the case may be. And most
men, believe, nobly fill the part.
Therefore, 1t seems to me fitting tint
every once in a while they should be
given, by way Of reward, a supremely
masculine evening, whereat it is un-
derstood that woman's part is to
stand in wait and supply the good
things to eat-Sood things that have
been cooked to perfection in paper
bags.
AS to the nature of the evening. let
the man himself decide.
Many things heretofore described
in this column suit such festive occa-
sions. Savory mouthfuls, hot chicken
biscuits, hot oyster sandwiches, paper
bagged oysters either in shells after
Soyer's recipe, or cooked in quantity
with butter, cream and lemon juice
and their own liquor added later
they all will satisfy hungry souls and
whet the palate for things potable,
especially if supplemented with
cheese crackers, also hot, sailed nuts
of any sort, olives warmed in a very
little sherry, or crisp radishes and
invariably good sharp cucumber
pickle.
Sliced beef crisped is not to be
Gespised, especially if the man OF the
house has a weakness for ale or 'alf-
and-'alf. To go with it make pricked
biscuit; none you can buy will match
them. The foundation i" puff paste,
and do not spare either shortening
or work in it's making. Put in a
trife more salt thar for pastry uses,
roll out less than a quarter inch
thick, and cut In rounds two and q
half inches across. Prick them well
over and bake crisp in a we'll butterel
bag. Sprinkle about half of them be-
fore baking lightly with dry mustard
or black pepper and paprika, or even
the barest busting of cayenne. Keep
these seasoned biscuit separate from
the plain ones and serve on separate
plates. Instead of the mustard and
pepper, you can use finely grated
cheese, or lay a very thin slice 1T
cheese between two biscuit after bak-
ing and heat IN bag until the cheese
melts. Pimento cheese spread b.
tween such biscuit, which have been
very lightly buttered. also makes .
we'll favored mouthful.

rounding country.
Evidence that the "Grey Ghosts"
owner does not care what he takes
and is as willing to commit a petty
theft as daring burglary Of con-
sequence, is shown by the fact that
on one occasion he went SO far az to
steal a drilling machine belonging
to ranchman, who owns a place at
Grand avenue and Foothill boulevard.
The tracks of the automobile tires
showed plainly where the auto pi-
rate" had hitched the machine to the
back of his car, and then sped away.
One Of the strange features In con-
nection with the case is the fact that
the auto pirate" seems to know every
crook and turn in the roads leading
in and about Glendora, Covina,
Duarte, Monrovia, Claremont and 9TH
er towns. When shooting his car
along over the smooth highways he
never seems to hesitate at turn or
slow down for a railroad crossing or
bridge.
