from the stalks and ate them with the
relish Of an epicure at a tureen of terra

Ambrose P. Hill he found on the Harpers

corn and too busy to STOP He kept on eat

fought in the battle revisited the field.
The association Of environment was ir-

Of all the veterans!

COOKING In THE OPEN
DELIGHTFUL SIDE OF OUTDOOR
LIFE IN SUMMER.
Some Useful Suggestions for Amateur
campers-simpIe Recipes That
Are Worth Trying-Easy
Way to Fry Fish.

Cooking in the open air is a de-
lightful side Of outdoor life in the
summer, and those who love the real
gypsy thing scorn the Oil stove used
by amateur campers. A fire is made
on the bosom of good Mother Earth,
and the camper or picnicker who can
arrange it so that the smoke will be
sible manner is the one who, after the
cook, Is most necessary to the party
A fireplace with chimney behind can
be made of stones and mud In a few
minutes by several pairs of hands, but
1t must be placed so that the wind will
be behind the cook. After the wood
has burned down to Goals the ordinary
campfire put over stones or be-
tween them is useful, and an iron grid
die, frying pan and coffee or tea
pot are the chief tools needed for
quite a good meal. But before you
make the fire find out If a permit is
required, as it would be In the Adiron
dacks and in many other densely-wood
ed districts. A forest fire may be
great tragedy, and when 1t Is caused
by willful carelessness 1t becomes
crime punishable in many districts
with a considerable fine. Here are
some recipes for the vacation cooking
spree done under lawful conditions:
Hoe cake.-Take two ounces OF corn
meal and pour over 1t enough boiling
water to wet 1t all and swell the grain
Then mix to the consistency OF a thin
batter with more hot water, adding
salt to taste Heat the griddle quite
hot over the gypsy campfire, grease II
with bit of salt pork, and then pour
on the corn batter in thin cake
When the cake Is parched on one side
turn on the other and serve hot with
butter. 1t takes about five minutes
to cook each cake, but If 1t is made
the size Of a large griddle 1t will dc
for three persons.
Fried Fish.-If a supply OF fresh
finny creatures is handy. whether
these are caught by the party or not
a dish of hot fried fish will prove q
delicious event at an open-air meal
After the fish have been scalded and
cleaned, wash them in several cold
waters and then dry thoroughly on a
clean cloth. Use the small ones whole,
leaving on the heads. and cut the 9th,

sugar and tobacco for their own boss

world, l tell you-and the mountains

Hues had kindled with a readu en-

FLOWERS NOW IN PROPULSION
Delightful Table Decorations Are eas-
lily Possible at This Favored
Time of Year.

With the return Of the flowers
comes the desire to have the table
decorated with some arrangement OF
blossoms.
1t is rather an expensive PROPOSE
ton during the winter. but flowers at
this season are inexpensive; or we
may call upon the woods and fields to
provide bouquets for the table.
An effective decoration is TO fill a
bowl with moss and arrange snow
drops and crocuses as if they were
growing in their native home.
The bowl should be shallow and
wide. Twenty snowdrops and few
violets are enough to fill the howl
They are more effective when not
clustered.
Small glass or china troughs may
be purchased for the purpose of deco
'ating the table.

ornaments are served. This is as
elaborate as one would care to have
it, for an outing hat.
The most elegant hat Of all for out
ing wear is a good Panama. The fine
ones stand a great amount of bending
and wear and are successfully
cleaned. Also they hold their color
in the sun, and the color of the genu-
ing Panama is very beautiful. These
hats are most appropriately trimmed
with scarfs of silk or bands and orna-
ments of ribbon.
Some novel hats made of silk or
other fabrics, shaped by rows of shir-
ring on cords or fine wires, have
been lately introduced for travelling.
They are reversible and give one the
advantage of a change, as the inside
and outside are in different colors.
An ornament may be pinned or sewed
to such hat upon occasion, and it
will serve for regular street wear,
especially if further decorated with
a lace VEIL 1t may be f1attened out
and carried in suitcase If necessary,
which is the great point of advantage
in these flexible hats. For sea
voyage they are ideal.
