Notes..

Allow 1 tsp. salt to l ct. water.
Use enough boiling water to cover
vegetables. Salt may be added when
vegetables are put in, except in the
case of delicate green vegetables, as
peas, spinach, etc., when it should
not be added until vegetables are
nearly done. To preserve the color
of green vegetables, cook uncovered.
Cabbage, cauliflower, onions and
turnips should be cooked uncovered
in large amount of water; by chang
ing the water once or twice during
cooking, much of the strong odor and
flavor may be lost Water in which
vegetables have been cooked is called
vegetable stock and may be used as
a basis for soups, sauces, etc.
Cold vegetables may be used as
salads or may be placed in baking
dish with IL the quantity of white
sauce, covered with buttered crumbs
and Drowned in a hot oven.
Peel onions under cold water to
avoid irritating the eyes Wash all
the utensils in cold water without
soap to remove onion odor.
Use vegetables in season. Winter
vegetables should be kept in a cool
dark, dry place.

peril, until he faces the fatal plunge.
Is it not fact that betting seldom
wins except in the hands of the
crafty arasites-whether they be of
the turf or of the Stock Exchange
that live upon the folly of their
neighbors? 1t is not merely bane-
full career, but one whose success
creates crime and spreads moral dis
ease among the people. In our day
is it not true that there is an alarming
spread, and fatal hold on betting?
Once it was the pastime only of
those who had very keen, sharp and
crafty wits or plenty of money. Now
streets, who will save his pence to
put a dollar on a horse. So many
in banks and business houses borrow
from the till, and the temptation to
bet becomes fatal.
| There is another cause of betting.
1t is the passion of gambling; real
passion, an excitement that seizes
the whole being and bewilders the
brain, and becomes a peril at last to
honor and fortune. For the conse.
quences are always fatal. There is
then the empty purse, the ruined
home, honor lost, and career that
might have been noble, fatally and
forever blighted. The consequences
that are exterior to these are even
more terrible to think upon, for the
brain becomes unbalanced and the
character itself very often becomes
undermined. The ideas of honor
and fair play, and justice are blurred
for even though they still remain as
principles which cannot be shut out
they are denied in practice. The gam
bier casts his own doom and brings
about his own disgrace.
How are we to account for the re
markable spread of the gambling
passion in the present day? One
reason, it appears, is that life is sc
fast, it's pace so furious, that we
move in an excited day. Then there
is sort of reaction. Many seek fol-
some counter excitement in order tc
repose. 1t is not another excitement
wild and furious, we should take, but
rather that calm of mind and that
control of life which will fit men and
women to face life as it should be
faced-with a strong character anG
balanced self-control Thus, and thus
only, can one seek to secure that
prudence of mind and that strong
balanced control of ones own char
acter which are the prime and cen
trail needs for any life to be goot
and, much more, for any life to bt
noble. Should it happen that yol
allow yourself to be carried too easily
away by such excitement, have {
care. Control it well, or it will bring
the inevitable result. Wisely, pru

however artistic" such may be con-
sidered, they should have no place, of
course, in Christian homes. The sight
of paintings of this kind but too often
stains permanently the minds of chill
dren who behold them. In buying pic
lures more pains should be taken to
secure the best Excellent copies of
the worlds finest paintings may be
had now for moderate sums, and the
worlds finest paintings, it should be
said, are the masterpieces, for the
most part, of Catholic artists, who
found their inspiration, as rule, in
sacred subjects. These are the pictures
therefore that should grace the walls
of Catholic homes. Good reproductions
of Raphael's "Sistine Madonna" Da
Vinci's 'Last Supper" Murillo's elm
maculate Conception" Ruebens' de
scent from the Cross" Van Dykes
"Crucifixion," and the like bear testi-
mony no less to the warm faith than
to the cultivated taste of those who
select and purchase such pictures for
the adornment of the home. Repre-
sensations of Our Lord, His Blessed
Mother, and the saints, by being ar
tistic, lose thereby none of their devo-
tional characters, though some dealers
in articles of piety would seem in
practice to hold the contrary. Indeed,
the power of masterpiece over the
multitude is being proved daily in
New York by the throngs that flock
to see the Raphael in the Morgan
exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum
of Arts.
Tasteful and well-executed paint
ings or engravings of sacred scenes
and persons we'll become Catholic

to appreciate what is best in art, they
suggest good thoughts to beholders,

THE FRESH AIR CURE.

It is a great pity that more women
effects of simply getting out of doors.
They allow themselves to become I'M
lovable, with nerves strung to the
breaking point, voices rasped; they
grow utterly miserable and make
everybody else anxious to keep out of
their way. Then they spend their
money on sedative pills and patent
medicine. And all the while, nine
times out of ten, the cure is just out
side their own doors. An hour or two
digging in the back yard while the
sun shines on it, long walk through
the fields, if you live near them, will
drive away the lowest spirits. Even a
tram ride, provided the car isn't
crowded and you go out to the
suburbs, and not through the shopping
district, is better than staying in the
house and dosing yourself with head
ache powders. A back porch or a
convenient doorstep, where you may
pare the vegetables, wash the clothes
and do a dozen other household tasks,
is a great promoter of health. If
going out for two hours is simply out
Of the question, go for half an hour,
Failing in that, there is one thing that
you can do; you can step outside the
door and take long, deep inhalations
of fresh air. Do it four or five or ten
times during the day. 1t won't take
more than three minutes at most, and
persisted in will work wonders, not
only with your health, but with your
appearance.

8. Fruit.-Fruit must be pared or
peeled with knife. Peaches,
apples and pears are quartered,
peeled, cut in mouthfuls, and the
pieces then eaten with the fingers.
Plums, grapes and the like are
eaten one by one, the pits being
dropped into the half-closed hand
or spoon and then laid on the plate.
Oranges are quartered and peeled.
The seeds are then pressed out, and
each quarter cut twice forms a suit
able mouthful.
Cantaloupes are served cut in
half and may be eaten with small
spoon. Salt is generally used with
them, but sugar is allowable.
Grapefruit is served as a first
course, and is eaten with spoon.
Pineapples are to be eaten with a
fork Strawberries are sometimes
served with the stems on, the sugar
and cream being passed around and
taken on the dessert plate.
4. er-bowl.-When the finger
bowl is used, it is half filled with
water and set upon plate, on which
small dolly lies. This plate is to
receive the fruit, unless another
plate is served. When the fruit is
finished, each hand in turn, is dipped
into the water and dried with the
napkin on the knee.
5. Condiments.-Sugar is taken
with the sugar spoon, which you must
never dip into your tea or coffee.
Lump sugar is taken with the sugar
tongs; however, if there be no tongs,
the fingers may be used.
1t is vulgar to thrust your knife
point into a large salt-dish. Use a
small salt-spoon, and place the salt
on the edge of your plate, and not on
the table cloth.
| 6. Soup-The soup-spoon will be
on the knife side of your plate. If
the soup cannot well be eaten from
the side of the spoon, do not put
more than the point of the spoon into
your mouth. The motion of the
hand guiding the spoon is toward and
not from you. However, in some
places, the contrary custom prevails.
In this, as in similar cases, where
custom allows one way or another,
you must observe the manner Of those
in whose company you are, and do
| likewise
Do not ask for a second service of
soup. Be careful not to drop your
head at each spoonful you take. Try
to keep an upright position without
appearing stiff. Never tilt your plate
to get the last drop of soup.
Z. Fish.-When eating fish, the
knife and fork may be used, if neces-
sary, to separate the flesh from the
bones The fish is then eaten with a
fork
8. Poultry.-Chicken and game
(and chop bones as welD are never
taken up with the fingers. Cut the
meat from the bones, and then eat il
with the fork
9. Eggs-If egg-cups are used
place the egg in the cup, with the
large end uppermost. Cut off the
top of the egg with stroke of the
knife, and eat it from the shell with
a small egg-spoon.
10. Nuts-Never use your teeth
to crack a nut, nor hammer upon il
with the handle of the knife. Use
the nut-cracker, or, if there be none
try to open the nut with the blade Of
the knife.

THE PASSION FOR GAMBLING.
Leads Finally to the Loss of Fortune
and Honor.

The interest of chance brings with
it it's uncertainty, and therefore its
excitement. Some chances in life are
inevitable. There are the tides of
trade, the fluctuations of business,
competition, talent and toll These
chances are to be faced bravely,
boldly, earnestly. Other chances are
deliberately created and deliberately
INDUCED in with all their excitement,
and it is of these I would especially
speak. Among them is the zest of
sport True sport depends upon
rivalry. or strength, or skill, or judg-
ment, insofar as these elements all
concur, and especially insofar as the
result depends upon judgment, that
zest is true sport-the sport of the
ball game, or it might be of the
billiard table, or of whist.
But sport is tending, like all other
things, to become more and more
adulterated. 1t ceases to have it's true
character of sport when there is an
element of betting, True sport looks
to success that is fairly and nobly
won. 1t looks to success with honor.
1t is it's own reward.
Should, however, some kind of
stimulant be added, it might not
quite interfere with sport. We should
scarcely wish to censure some light
wager upon race, some trifing bet
upon a game. Yet in these there is
danger for if that stimulant be in
dulged in to extreme it will produce
fever of the brain, a delirium of
the dice, as real as the delirium of a
dream. The passion for gambling is
always near at hand when betting is
INDUCED without control. It's causes
are twofold, and of two kinds. The
first, and often the cause which
begins, is the idea that there is a
quick and easy way of making
money. Thus the foolish man will
plunge still more and more. If he
wins he is excited to try again; if
he loses he plunges to regain. What
ever happens he must face greater

A CODE OF TABLE MANNERS.

1. Fingers.-At dinner roll is
often placed in the napkin of each
guest. The roll is taken out, and
laid on the table cloth, at the right
side of the plate. Never cut up the
bread or roll, nor bite off mouth
full, but break it in pieces as needed,
spread on it a bit of butter, and
carry it with the fingers to the
mouth Crackers and cake are eaten
in the same way, though cake may
sometimes be eaten with the fork.
Cheese is cut in bits, placed on
morsels of bread or biscuit, and
lifted with the fingers to the lips. 1t
is usually served with salad.
Celery is eaten with the fingers. 1t
is generally dipped in a little salt
placed on the edge of the plate.
Radishes, olives, artichokes and all
raw fruits, except berries and
melons, are likewise eaten with the
fingers.
2. Vegetables in gen
eral are eaten with the fork. Gu
cumbers are served with fish, and
are taken on the same plate.
Asparagus is not taken with the
fingers, though it may be allowed to
do so in private. In company, use
the fork, and cut off the points OF
the asparagus with the end of the
prongs. The stalk or white part is
not eaten.
Salad is eaten with the fork
though salad undressed may be
eaten with the fingers. When rad
ishes are served, put them on your
bread and butter plate, and eat them
with a little salt.
When corn on the cob is served il
polite society, you must remove the
grains of the corn with fork, Oh
with your knife and fork, and never
eat it off the cob. By holding one
end with your napkin, you can pass
your fork down the furrow of the
grains, and they will easily fall OF
Corn is generally served on white
napkin. Ordinarily you may hell
yourself to the ear with your fingers

PICTURES IN THE HOME.

That anything is good enough to
cover the bare space on the wall''
seems to be the principle on which
many Catholics act nowadays in Sc
lecting pictures for the adornment of
the home, says America" Correct
taste in art is even rarer in this coun-
try than good judgment in literature.
For those who exercise some care in
their selection of books will buy with
out hesitation worthless or dangerous
paintings and engravings. Yet the
character of the pictures in house
is matter of more Importance than
the nature of the library's contents,
for bad books are harmless till opened
and read, but a meretricious painting
may be always hanging on the wall
for all to see.
OF immodest pictures there is
scarcely any need of speaking, for

LESSON XII.
VEGETABLES.

VEGETABLES.
Vegetables are chiefly valuable for
the pure water and mineral matter
they contain, which act as tonic to
the system. They also contain cellu-
lose or wool fibre, which stimulate
the digestive organs to carry on their
work. Some vegetables contain
starch, sugar and other substances.
Peas, beans and lentils are tissue
builders and may be used in place of
meat, eggs, etc. Lettuce and celery
have a juice that is soothing to the
nerves. Celery if taken in large
enough quantities, is considered a
cure for rheumatism. Spinach con-
tains iron, etc. Therefore, it is we'll
to eat many kinds of vegetables, in
order to supply the body with the
mineral matter and acids they con.
tain.
Vegetable foods are divided into
four general classes.
Cereals. Elk. Wheat, oats, rye, bar
ley, rice, etc.
Legumes. Elk. Peas, beans, lentils
Tubers. Elk. Potatoes, turnips, car.
rots, beets, parsnips.
Green Vegetables. Elk Asparagus
celery, lettuce, etc.
Vegetable Fruits and Flowers
Cucumbers, squash, egg plant, toma
toes, etc., are sometimes called vege
table fruit. The flowers of some vege
tables, as caulifiower, cabbage, etc.
are parts of the vegetable used.

The morning watch contains sixty
eight men. Sixteen of these are wheel
patroImen who work the residential
beats. Two perform motorcycle duty.
The day watch numbers sixty-eight
sixteen of them being mounted mea
who take care OF the residential sec
tons
The plainclothes squad contains
twenty-five men, who work chiefly
residence territory. 1t is divided into
two squads, one OF which goes on
duty from ) p. m until l a. M. the
second from a. m until D. N. The
traffic squad, including both the day
and evening watches, numbers nine
teen.
Lanford Asks Bigger Force
Chief Beavers intfmated that fifty
more men could be put TO good avail,
and that the residential section could
be better covered than at present.
Chief Lanford has declared that in
order TO put the detective depart
ment on an entirely satisfactory
basis he will need at least a dozen
more men.
The need Of three police sub-sta-
lions has been urged by Chief Beav-
ers for months. An appeal without
success has been made to council
for the establishment of these sta
tions. Atlanta is the only city of the
south of its size which depends alb
solutely upon a single police sta
ton.
In event of three additional sta
tions, the chief has stated time and
again that the entire city can be sue
cessfully covered and protected One
of the proposed stations was sug-
gested for the lower end of Peters
street, which would cover all of the
bad territory of this street, which
in many respects, is worse than De
catur, the street in which police
headquarters is situated, and cover
the whole of West End, a residence
section.
Too Long to Reach Scene
At present il requires call men
from 10 to l ) minutes to reach West
End from headquarters on motorcy-
Giles, where a third of the time would
be required from sub-station at
the point suggested in the chiefs APP
peal to the police commission.
a second station was proposed for
Marietta street in the stock yards
and railroad district. This would
cover quarter of the city, a section
now protected in emergency by call
men from headquarters. who require
from ) to / ) minutes on motors.
The third additional station has
been proposed somewhere on the
north side at an indefinite point.
An. instance of the lack of faciIi-
ties for the department was shown
last Saturday night, one of the
busiest spent at headquarters since
the Christmas holidays, when both
auto patrol wagons broke down and
were sent in for repairs. While ar
rests were being made by the whole
sale, the prisoners had to be convey
ed from all parts of the city TO head
quarters in a horse patrol and a
heavy van obtained by the police
from the city works department.
Neither of the machines were re-
stored to operation until after mid
night Sunday.
Council, it is stated, will give the
twenty-five additional
men at the first of the year. These
will be used to strengthen the patrols
of the residential zones. A new auto
patrol will be installed some time
this month.
