NOTHING NEW IN THE WoRLr
What Are Called Present-Day EVIIs
Really Date Back to Beginning
Of Time.

II is not only in modern days that
the cry has been raised against i'm
pure foods or that the makers Of food.
stuffs have attempted to adulterate
their products by the injection Of un-
wholesome materials into their arti.
cles.
Far back in the days when Rome
swayed the world many OF the 30.
called present day evils were preva-
lent. Divorces were more common
then than they are today; at one time,
in fact, divorces became so ordinary
an occurrence that woman who had
not been divorced at least once was
pointed out as curiosity. And the
adulteration Of foods was another
everyday matter.
In the writings of that day can be
found accounts Of the evils. and Pliny
tells OF the manner in which the ba-
kers in Rome mixed the dough of their
bread with a white earth. which was
exceedingly soft when touched and
very sweet to the taste. In this man.
ner they were able to put out food,
stun that was fine in appearance and
had weight, and yet 1t cost them little
or nothing in the making and had prac,
tically no food value.
Wines we're another product which
were adulterated to an amazing ex.
tent. Even the wealthiest among the
Roman mobiles could not be at all sure
that the expensive wines they bought
were made Of pure grape. Even the
wines that were imported from the
colony Of Gaul, now France, and which
we're considered to be the finest in the
world. were arti1cially colored by
aloes and other drugs.
Deceptive weights and false meas.
ures were used continually. and al
most all the modern tricks of the trade
were practiced. 1t can truly be said
of this, as of all other things, that
there is nothing new under the sun.

i'm PLACE OF TURKEY
SOME SUBSTITUTES THAT WILL
BE FOUND EFFECTIVE.
Chicken PIE Properly Made Is Gel
Icacy That All Will Appreciate
To Prepare and Stuff Roast
Ducks.

Chicken Pie.-Dress, clean and cut
up as many chickens as needed. Put
kettle on range with three pints of
water; as soon as water reaches the
boiling point add chicken, few pieces
at time, otherwise the boiling will be
stopped, and the water thus cooled
will draw out so much of the flavor
that the chicken will become tasteless.
When all is added, cover and cook
slowly until meat is tender, adding
one-half tablespoonful of salt dur
ing the last half hour of the cook
ing.
Remove chicken and discard skin
and bone of the larger bones. Strain
stock, skim off fat and then cook un-
til reduced to four cupfuls. Thicker
with one-fourth of a cupful of butter
mixed with one-third of a cupful of
flour. Season with salt and pepper.
Arrange chicken in serving dish, strain
over gravy, let stand over night and
reheat for serving. Make decorated
cover of a rich pie crust 1t is much
better to bake the paste separately
and reheat before covering the pie.
If you decide to cook turkey, king OF
the Christmas dinner, he should be
ordered some days before he is want
ed. Call upon your butcher in per-
son and give him your order, telling
him how large bird you want and In
sisting that he be the best of his kind.
No cold storage fowl for this in
casion, but one that is healthy, fat and
firm, yet tender, with fair flesh and
smooth, dark legs and breast bone
that yields slightly when pressed by
light finger.
Roast Ducks.-Clean and stuff and
truss pair Of ducks, place on rack
in dripping pan, sprinkle with salt
and pepper, and cover breast OF each
bird with two thin slices of fat salt
pork. II wild ducks are used, bake
twenty to thirty minuter In very
hot oven, basting every five minutes
with fat In pan. If domestic ducks
are preferred, reduce the heat and
bake ono and one-fourth hours. Gar
nish with water cress.
Stufing for Wild Duck.-This STUFF
fing is not eaten; it is simply added to
impart flavor, and consists of three
small onions put into body of each
bird or apples pared, cored and cut In
quarters and removed before serving

JerroId's Quick wiz.

Douglas JerroId was one of the best.
known Victorian wits-one of the men
who said instanter the things which
others think of an hour later. In the
book produced, by his grandson are
some speciments Of the quick wit OF
other times. :.
At a club supper. when Sleeps
heads had provided the chief dish, one
enthusiast exclaimed:
"WeI. sleeps heads for ever. say

There's egotisml" quietly remark
ed Jerrold.
Dining with friend. he was asked
how he liked the port.
"Not much" he replied.

Possibly" said Jerrold; but to my
taste it partakes more Of the hedges
than the butler"

soft, lay 1t away in a cold place till
firm and hard Then roll out gently,
keeping the shape round and even,
and roll It a t-ife larger than the
plate, for as you lift the paste 1t will
shrink slightly, and It is better to
push It back toward the center Of the
plate II too large THAN to stretch 1t to
the edge II too small. Lift the edge
and press the paste down in the CEN
ter that there may be no bubbles of
air underneath. If you have the knack
Of keeping the paste round as you roll
1t there will be no edges to be trim
med of and no waste. Use tin or
granite plates and merely dust them
with flour. greasing is unnecessary
Remove the pies to earthen plates
when baked.
This paste will make a very tender
upper crust, good enough for every
day pies, but for Thanksgiving we
use pun paste.

SOME IDEAS ABOUT COOKERY
improving the Flavor Of Fish-cream
for Baked Reans-PreparatIon
Of Delicious Rice Omelet.

When fish OF unpronounced flavor Is
to be boiled It is improved by the ad-
dition of vinegar to the water. II the
fish is inclined to be tasteless half a
pint of vinegar to an ordinary kettle Of
water will not be too much.
An old New England housekeeper
has a cupful of rich. hot cream ready
to stir into the baked beans when they
come from the oven and before they
go to the table.
Creamed toast In one family .s pre-
pared in this way: The bread is toast
ed and kept hot in a covered dish.
Then a white sauce is made in the
usual proportion of a cupful Of rich
milk or cream to tablespoonful each
of butter and -four with salt to sea-
son. At the last, when the sauce is
thick. two tablespoonfuls of grated
cheese are stirred in, teaspoonful Of
Worcestershire sauce and a dash of
paprika 1t is poured over the toast.
To prepare a rice omelet as one
cook does 1t, make white sauce with
a c6pful of milk and two level table
spoonfuls each OF cornstarch and but
ter. Stir in three we'll beaten yolks
and cupful of hot boiled rice Fold

three eggs, season with paprika and a
trace of nutmeg and cook in the regu-
lar omelet pan. Serve with red cur
