TESTED GOOD THINGS.

These are all dishes tried and true,
which may be used without fear. {
Split Pea Soup.-Pick owe a cupful
Of dried, split peas, wash them, then
soak in plenty Of cold water over
night. In the morning pour off the
water and put the peas to cook in
two quarts of water; add a two-inch
cube Of salt pork and one onion sliced.
Cook gently until the peas have be-
come very soft, stirring frequently to
keep them from burning on the bot
tom. 1t will probably take four or
five hours to cook them properly.
When tender rub through a sieve, re-
turn to the kettle and re-heat. Melt
two tablespoonfuls Of butter, add two
tablespoonfuls of flour, thin with a
little of the soup and add. When we'll
cooked add two cups of milk or a cup
of milk and a cup Of cream, If 1t Is to
be very fine. Season to taste with salt
and pepper and serve hot.
Smothered Fish.-This is a good
supper dish on a cold. winter night:
Fry slowly in a frying pan six or sew
en- slices of fat salt pork. When the
pork is brown, take it out and add
five or six sliced onions of medium
size. When the onions are about a
third done, skim them out and lay IN
pieces of fresh fish in the bottom OF
the pan. Over this spread some OF
the onions, sailed and peppered, and
cover with a layer Of sliced raw po-
tatoes, we'll seasoned. Cover closely
and cook slowly for an hour on the
back of the stove.
Hot Rice Pudding.-Wash a half cup
of rice and put to cook in a double
boiler with a quart of hot milk. When
the rice is tender, add W tablespoon
fuls Of sugar and the same amount OF
butter. Season with salt. Beat the
egg until light. add to the rice, COOK
inst a minute. Put the rice into the
Dish for serving. Mix two table
spoonfuls of sugar with two of butter
and a half teaspoonful Of cinnamon.
Spread over the top. Serve hot.

Worth Three Times a Diamond.

Nearly all the emeralds mined to-
day come from Colombia. And, in
spite Of the supposed higher value OF
diamonds, the emerald Is the most
precious Of gems. Carat for carat, a
fawless emerald would bring perhaps
three times the price of a flawless dia-
mond in the jewelry market. India,
the %storehouse' Of precious stones, Is
credited with producing the first en-
eralds, but the Oriental emerald Is
not identical with the modern gem, as
it is a variety Of the ruby, Of green
color and extremely rare. 80.

Eradication of Cattle Tick.

The following resolution has been
adopted by the Southern Association
of Agricultural Workers: whereas,
the cattle industry and the live stock
industry of the South is directly de-
pendent upon the eradication of the

active tick eradication is becoming
more extensive and the imperative de-
mand for instructive help and leader

tick infested states, Therefore be 1t
resolved, by the Association of South
ern Agricultural Workers that this as
ISOLATION urgently request congress to
appropriate 100000 for tick eradica

Y6EGABINET
HOW TO

The keeping of lemons in the house
hold is a problem to many. Some ad-
vocate dropping them in water and
renewing the water once a week; but
the plan Of packing them, stem end
down in sand, just as one does eggs,
keeping them from touching each 9TH
er, is the best n yet. They will
keep for months, provided they are
not softening when put into the sand.
A supply Of lemons is a great con-
venience, and even the waste Of two
or three is quite an item in the course
Of many buyings.
Save the old newspapers, and when
sweeping day comes If not fortunate
enough to have a vacuum cleaner,
wet the paper, tear in small pieces
and sprinkle over the floor, before
sweeping. The paper holds the dust
and keeps 1t from flying about.
Save bits CT soap, toilet and wash
ing soap separately, and when a suffi-
cient amount of pieces are gathered,
cover with water in a sauce pan and
stand on the stove to melt. When
melted, pour into molds and have a
new cake Of soap. 2
Ice cream that is melted may be
used for various dishes If not wanted
to re-freeze. 1t may be used in ;cake,
leaving out the milk and using less
sugar. ......
Melted chocolate ice cream. to
which is added a little gelatine and
a few chopped nuts, makes a delicious
desert.
Rice water should never be thrown
away, as 1t Is highly nutritious. 1t
may be used as a foundation for soups,
is a fine drink for an invalid, with the
addition Of lemon juice and sugar,
either hot or cold. Some housekeep
ers use it for s%tiffening old laces.
Save paper bags for slipping over
the lamp chimneys, to keep them
clean. Use the bag as a mitten when
backing the stove. 1t keeps the hands
from getting soiled, and saves many
bruises.
Wrap cheese in a cloth dampened In
vinegar to keep it from molding.
If a whole cheese is cut, it may be
covered with melted parafine and
we'll wrapped, or the cut surface may
be spread with butter to keep it from
drying out.

Suicide Among German Children.

Why do so many German children
commit suicide? No one seems to
know, but there is no dispute about
the fact. Indeed it has been said that
the majority Of suicides are those OF
children, and experts seem'inclined to
connect the grisly epidemic with the
educational system. That "the weak
must go to the wall' has become an
, axiom that has been extended to the
schools, and the undeveloped mind OF
the child seeks relief in suicide from
the encouragement Of failure. 1t
would be interesting to know If any OF
the so-called heather countries Of the
world have ever experienced such a
horrid social phenomena as that OF
child suicide. .r 49,. .
