CHARACTER TOLD BY RECIPES
Autobiography Of Housewife Is Re-
Vealed In Cooking Directions
Which She Keeps.

BY nothing is a housekeeper more
distinctly known than by her cooking
recipes. A collection from different
sources Is almost photographed.
Between the lines one may estimate
the amount of income. the size of the
family, the character of their enter
taining, and to some extent the men
tai caliber of the writer. One person
may be habitually extravagant in the
use of eggs and butter. another is
conspicuously stingy The house
keeper, cooking for a large family.
gives directions on such an ample
scale that the bride is appalled,.
Some cooks run to the elaborate and
fussy, and and others restrict them.
selves to the easiest and simplest
dishes. Some evidently cater to del.
ieate stomachs, and show in their Sc
lections that there are invalids and
children at their table. Others seem
to revel In delicious indigestibles
AS to the form in which a recipe
is given, the writer shows plainly
whether she is systematic and me-
thodical or careless and haphazard.
The order in which ingredients are
put together and a careful measure
ment of the materials are indispen-
sable features of recipe. Nothing
Is so discouraging to a beginner as
the vague reference to flour enough
for a stiff dough-" or milk enough
for a thin batter" The housekeeper
whose pantry shelves are kept In good
order is apt to write a neat and ex-
plot recipe. The knack is worth &C.
quiring.

STUDENT ATE RAW GOLDFISH

i have just heard of an incident at
one OF the New England colleges"
says a correspondent, which illus,
trates an oddity in betting. Youths
working their way through college will
OFTEN do much and go far to win a
degree. Not long ago a freshman-a
Bostonian. too was challenged in a
bantering spirit to eat one of several
little goldfish swimming in a glass
globe on the table in a chums room.
III give you a quarter to do It."
cried one of the boys.
AS the Boston boy needed ready
money, he promptly accepted the Of
Ter. He put his hand into the globe,
caught the little fish and In a twink
ling crushed 1t in.his teeth and swal-
lowed it In triumph.
AS he took the quarter, another
student said, Bob, I'll give you half
dollar to eat a second one" The grit.
ty youth instantly accepted and seiz.
ing another. somewhat larger fish,
hurriedly devoured 1t.
The boys now thoroughly aroused
kept on offering their money for en-
cores until the fish supply gave out
and the Bostonian had won total Of
$3.50.
The feat became the talk of the
dormitories. and next day when the
piscatorial prodigy entered the dining
hall at noon he was instantly recogs
nized and a great shout of applause
went up from the throats OF 15O of
his enthusiastic admirers.

than that shown against Colgate. while

game did Carlisle take the ball from Syra-
cuse on downs. Several times. however. a
tumble gave the pigskin TO the Indians.

period. on the opening play double
pass was attempted but the ball went
wild. syracuse recovered II on It's own 10
yard line. but the opportunity for scoring
was gone.

ball on its own rs yard line when Kings

mage. His grip on the ball loosened

Syracuse electrified the stands at the
start by marching down the field for q

I'll Syracuse missed the goal on its third
touchdown. Thereafter Carlisle was al.
ways in the lead. earning it's last touch
down with two minutes to play in the

During those two minutes the Syracuse
team gave Il wonderful aerial display.
Forward pass after pass WAS hurled over
the Indians heads until the pigskn
rested on the Indians yard line as the
whistle blew for the end of the game.
