Of his friend Warden Rattigan. The

"Mr. Osborne says he wants to associ-
ate with the convicts, so he can ascertain
their real feelings OF course every con-
Wet In Auburn knows who Mr.. osborne
is and why he Is in the prison. Natur-
ally all who get q chance to talk with
him will tell him they feel they are not
being treated right There never was
a convict who was satisfied with his
surroundings. The idea Of a prison Is to
make the inmates sorry they are there.
II note from the press reports that
the convicts In Auburn have practically
no social pleasures Of any kind. There
isn't q bar room In the prison or q pool
and billiard parlor. The convicts are
not allowed out Of their cells after dark.
All they get to eat Is meat. vegetables.
cereals, bread and tea or coffee, They
are not allowed to shoot craps or hit
the pipe or sniff cocaine. Outside OF
exercising In the prison yard or attend
ing services In the chapel the only rec
reations they enjoy are reading or play

Mr.. Osborne belongs TO the class OF

principle Is that the way TO reform q

in the cellar and required longer cook

Buy the rump of corned beef for clear

and skim as 1t begins to boil. Keep the
Kettle filed with water and cook gently
from three to four hours. Add, accord
ing to the time required, the cabbage,
beets, turnips. winter squash. carrots,
and potatoes in their jackets. A pound
OF salt pork was usually boiled. and If
Lot eaten was delicious broiled for break
fast. An Indian pudding was also boiled
with this dinner, and was made with
two cups of yellow corn meal, one cup
beef suet, chopped; vne-nalf cup mo-
lasses, half teaspoon of soda, salt to
taste, and one cup of fruit-dried huckle-
berries or cranberries preferred. 1t was
mixed with hot water, put into a mold

Serve with a rich, sweetened sauce or
cream. Allow room in bag to swell.

I have given the directions for a New

are too good to miss. Even an mex
perienced cook could produce the desired
results by following these instructions to

raised in New England may delight

pairing such a dinner as his grandmother
or mother used to make" having the
