FOUR LENTEN DISHES.

The Lenten dishes described below
are both sensible and seasonable in
that they require little expenditure of
time and money They have all been
thoroughly tested and are very suit
able to serve either at luncheon or
supper The use of the delicious and
nutritious macaroni and of eggs,
which are so reasonable at this sea-
son of the year, makes these particu-
lar dishes especially desirable and
practicable, says Fannie Merritt Far
mer in The Woman's Home Com
panion.
Allerton Potatoes-Hard-b three
eggs and pour cold water over them
as soon as they come from the boil
ing water; this prevents the discoi-
Grafton of the whites. Separate
whites from yolks. Chop the whites
fine. and force the yolks through a
potato-rice or coarse stralner. Wash
and pare potatoes, cut in one-halt
inch slices, and then cut slices in
cubes (there should be two cupfuls).
Cook in boiling salted water until
soft; then drain. Cook five table
spoonfuIs of butter with two table
spoonfuls finely chopped onion three
minutes, stirring constantly. Add four
and one-half tablespoonfuls of flour,
and stir until well blended, then pour
on gradually, while stirring constant
ly, two cupfuls Of scalded milk Bring
to the boiling point, add potato cubes
and whites of eggs, and season with
hree-fourths teaspoonful Of salt and
one-eighth teaspoonful OF pepper, Let
stand In double boiler thirty minutes,
turn on a hot platter, sprinkle with
prepared egg-yolks and garnish with
parsley.
Oysters and Macaroni la Metrop-
ole--Break macaroni In one-inch
pieces (there should be three -fourths
cupful), and cook in boiling salted
water until soft, the time required De
ing about twenty-five minutes. Drain
in strainer, and pour over one quart
OF cold water to prevent pieces from
adhering. Wash and pick over one
pint OF oysters. Put layer OF one
half the cooled macaroni In a butter
ed baking dish. cover with one half
the oysters. sprinkle with salt and

THE REALM FEMININE
HINTS ON SPRING SKIRTS.

1t is the plain effect that you must
strive for in the new spring costumes
Fussy clothes still belong to another
dress epoch. AS the spring days come
nearer, of course you, just like every
other one of us women, want to know
all about the new skirt. So let's begin
with the tailored skirt.
Perhaps the thing you need first
and most is a separte skirt. If you
do, there are many designs from
which to choose, but all of them keep
TO the straight lines. None of these
skirts are made wider than two and
one-half yards around the bottom,
but very many of them have what is
known as the kick plat, toward the
hem, to make walking more of a
pleasure than it has been for some
time past
one particularly stylish design for
a separate skirt of which 1 very much
approve because Of its many practical
features, is made in two pieces with
a seam on each hip and inverted paits
set in at each side toward the foot.
This skirt measures just two yards
around the bottom, but the piaits give
ii extra width. \ smart touch of nov
city is given to the otherwise perfect
ly plain skirt by having the back part
of the skirt fasten over on the front
by tabs. These tabs button down and
either leather-covered or bone buttons
should be used, with the buttonholes
outlined with leather or silk cords.
The skirt is just a trifle high-waist-
ed in effect, and is mounted on a mar
row inside belt.
Such a@skirt as this would be very
serviceable in mannish tailored cloth
showing a stripe in a not too promi-
nent contracting color, or it would
look well developed in serge or a
lightweight Scotch mixture. Dark
blue is still a fashionable color for
such a skirt the black-and-w White
mixtures and the grays are also much
in vogue though the shades which
are most advocated for spring suits,
whether it is an entire suit or sep
arate skirt are the varying tones of
ecru and tan. They include the
champagne shades and the khaki col
ors--Grace Margaret Gould in THE
Woman's Home Companion.

pepper, dredge with flour, and dot
over with bits of butter, using two ta-
blespoonfuls; repeat, and cover with
three-fourths cupful of buttered
cracker-crumbs. Bake in q hot oven
twenty minutes.
Chinese-Egg Timbales, Tomato
Sauce-Beat three eggs slightly, and
add one cupful of milk. Season with
three-fourths teaspoonful of salt, one
eighth teaspoonful of pepper. and a
few grains of cayenne. Strain, and
add three tablespoonfuls, of grated
cheese. Turn into six buttered tim
bale-molds. set in pan of hot water
and bake in a moderate oven until

the tomato sauce cook one half can
Of tomatoes with one slice of onion
fifteen minutes, and rub through a
sieve. Melt three tablespoonfuls of
butter, add two and one-half tea
spoonfuls of flour mixed with one
half teaspoonful of salt and one-eighth
teaspoonful of pepper, and stir until
well blended; then pour on gradually,
while stirring constantly, strained to-
matoes. Bring to the boiling point,
and if acid, add few grains of soda.

DESERVES RENo,nNArlox.

There are several good reasons why
Representative :. d. Peterson should
be reelected to the legislature. The
east end OF the county is entitled to
a representative in the UmatiHa del
eeation and Mr.. Peterson is their
candidate
In the last legislature Representa-
tive Peterson was true to the prin-
ciples ne espoused when he sought
election. He ran for office as a pro-
gressive and he was a very consist
ent progressive during the session.
He refused to Zine up" with any
contingent in behalf Of any move he
did not consider worthy. Because he
refused to allow some reactionary
ring managers to- tell him what to
do he incurred their enmity and they
are fighting him now. They will
drive some votes away from him. Bu;
the opposition Of that element should
commend Mr. Peterson to the inde-
pendent minded members Of his par
ty. He is entitled to the support OF
the progressive element because he
Is opposed by the reactionary ele-
ment.
II the republicans of Umatilla
county wish TO name for represen-
tative a man who Is not owned and
directed by the machine they will Dc
well to vote for the denomination OF
s. D. Peterson.

THE ELECTRICAL SITUATION.

Facts relating to the growth of the
powerful electric light and power
trust have been made public by the
commissioner of corporations and are
published by this paper today.
There is really nothing new, how
ever, about the disclosures them
selves. The novelty is in the adnis-
sion by an official Of the Taft admin
istration that such a monopoly ex-
lists. Two years ago Clifford Plnchot
pointed out. virtually these same facts
and he was derided and ousted from
office for that and other reasons.
From the tenor of the recommen-
dations made by the present com
missioner 1t seems plain little aid
may be expected from the federal
government as long as the standpat-
ters are in control. The present COM
missioner would charge a rental for
the use Of power sites but says rates
cannot be regulated, though the lat
ter policy would seem like a more ef-
fective way Of securing justice for the
consumers
Plainly the most effective way for
a community to secure relief from
the exactions Of the trust is for it to
30 into the electric business itself
when such course is possible. A
town has more business owning an
electric power plant than has J. F.
Morgan. Electricity Is a municipal
necessity. 1t is used already for
multitude Of purposes and the field Of
its usefulness win be more and more
extended as time goes BY. An ample
supply Of cheap electricity IS as es-
sential for the continued growth Of
town as is an ample supply Of water
An offer Of a power proposition
has been made the city of Pendleton
and If it measures up 70 the expecta-
tons Of those who have been investi-
eating the matter the scheme should
certainly be taken up. It will be a
rare chance for Pendleton.
or course all sorts Of objections
will be put forth in behalf OF the
electric trust. II viii be said the city
government IL untitled for managing
an electric business because the Of
ncials are politicians. The best ans
wer to the charge is that electric Of
ficials themselves are politicians
Most officials draw salaries not be-
cause they know much about cleo
tricity-they can hire electricians and
electrical engineers-but because they
have real or imaginary political in
fiuence. They hold their jobs through
their ability to make people believe
they are getting fine service at low
prices when they are not
The ownership and management of
electrical plants In behalf Of the peo-
PIE is something that is inevitable
sooner or later. 1t is the natural
and just way. Private operation Of
such utilities is make shift and cam
not last The sooner municipality
secures a power plant the better. A
town that gets such a plant now
wont have TO pay a fabulous price
for one in later years.
