Cooking Vegetables.

Have YOU ever tried. cooking turnips
with a cheese fiavoring? It's n de-
parture from tho usual turnip recipes
and Is worry good. Peel and boil young
turn!ps in salted water until they are
perfectly tender Cut them in halves
and put layer OF them in tho bottom
OF buttercd casserole or baking dish.
Spread tho turnips with layer OF
thick cream sauce. which Is we'll sea-
soned with salt and paprika- and al
ternnte layers OF turnips and sauce
until the dish Is full. Sprinkle cheese
over the top ana bake for thirty
minutes.
Fried caulihower Is not the most az
gestible OF vegetables, bur 1t is worth
trying to tempt the faded appetite.
TO prepare the dish cook one good
sized cnulitiower in sailed water until
II is tender. Drain. cool and divide II.
The divisions should consist OF a
flower each-that is TO say. the cauli-
flower should be broken apart at tho
base into its natural divisions. Dip
each OF these sections in beaten egg
and then roll them In bread crumbs
mixed with grated cheese. Fry them
golden brown In deep fat drain and
serve
There are innumera6le ways of
cooking tomatoes, but perhaps tho
best Known OF them is the curried to-
mato Cut half a ncdidm- sized onion
into very small pieces and fry in but
ter until brown, but not the least
burned. Add tablespoonful OF cuiry
powder ana work IL in we'll with tho
butter: then add half a cupful Of
stock, mixing it in slowly. ana then
add half n cupiul OF minced apples a
tart apple gives the best flavor but any
apple Will 10. Simmer this gently
for fftecn minutes. and do not forget
that slow simmering is the secret OF
good curry. II 1t becomes at ali dry,
add more butter or stock but what

Keeping White Hosiery
and Shoes Clean

1t is an indisputab BILE fact that white
shoes and stockings are tho footwear
par excellence for the good old sum
mer time-that Is every woman who
is willing to spend small amount of
time keeping white footwear white has
become convinced of this truisn But
shoes and hosiery of this sort must,
like Caesars wife. be above suspicion
for slovenly and ill-cared for as black
shoes can look thoy are never so bad
as ill-kept white ones.
The secret of keeping white shoes In
order is not to let them get dirty on
first thought this suggestion may not
appear very helpful but the idea seems
TO be prevalent that just because white
shoes Will clean the wearer need not
go out OF her way to avoid the miro
Tho shoes should DO cleaned by having
the eNtraneous dirt removed before tho
whitening preparation is applied. for
many OF these merely whitewash tho
dirt instead OF taking It of.
Mud should be allowed to dry: then
most OF IL may be easily rubbed off
with brush or piece OF flannel
II the shoe is canvas the mud stain
can generally be removed by scrubbing
IL with hand brush on which soap
has been rubbed, but do not be too Law
ish with water or the canvas is apt to
shrink.
The cleanser Is thon applied and tho
shoes or slippers are left TO dry in the
shade to prevent yellowing. once a
shoe has been cleaned with whitening
even clear water will spot 1t. Spots on
suede or buckslsin shoes should be rub
bed lightly. very lightly, with sand
paper before the cleanser is applied.
and water should never touch them.
In white, Isle hosiery is preferred by
many women TO that Of silk, as the
la tier is apt TO yellow in washing ami
no longer TO match the dead white Of
the shoe. Lukcwarm water and good
white soap should be used when wash
ing It, AT the end OF the ahluton run
the hosiery through water slightly
blued, wiring. pull the stockings into
;hape and hang to dry In the shade.
Here's n piece OF practical hosie~y
Information: always buy the same make
Of stockings, SO that when there is (.
fresh heap TO sort the perfect ones can
be paired off; then the darned ones and
the wornout ones discarded. instead OF
the owner having to hunt through i
pile OF worn stockings to get n wear
able matching pair This rule holds
good irrespective OF color.

The hardy fern with glossy leaves
is much better plant for the table
than the delicate fern-like ferns. 1t
becomes life struggle" for any va
riety OF fern in the dry and heated
atmosphere OF n house, and so ono
should select only the hardest for
table decoration.
1t is we'll to be sure that there are
enough holes in the receptacle in which
the fern is planted to afford good
drainage
Ferns thrive best in moist atmos-
phcre. and this congeninl atmosphere
can, with very little trouble, be pro
cured for even the table fern. Have a
case made OF four pieces OF window
glass set in wooden frame, sutii-
ciently large to cover one or mora
ferns without brushing their sensi-
tive fronds. After sprinklng the
leaves edo not pour water on the soil
in this instancc) plentifully with
water. place the case. which has no
bottom, over the fern and allow 1t to
remain thus overnight. In the morn
ing take the fern out and place near
an open window for a few minutes so
that it may breathe" the fresh air.

sno,,com,urs Of Hospitality.

No matter who they were they SAT Gown

not our food. but our lives
III all our American women would

We would have. In most households.
at least according TO the way am
treated guest is an unusual event
The guest is not taken into the life Of
the family as he should be, but pains
are taken with the cooking, and he is
treated to what the family does not
ordinarily receive.
II remember talking with venerable
bishop about this. and he said: My
people feed me on strange dishes that
they know do not ordinarily eat. when
all the time | want a beefsteak and
baked potatoes. They mean we'll. but
why will they not be just their natural
selves?
The old bishop was right" continued
natural self is always apparent. and
the guest for whom this pretense is
assumed is the least deceived of all
by it.
when ! am asked to the table of a
friend. | consider that l have been paid
the highest compliment in my hostesss
power Hospitality can go no further.
and the guest always appreciates this
TO the full However. when company
manners and company dishes are intro
duced there is a subtle change from the
real to the unreal and j feel that the
very courtesy which 1t was intended to
show me has been destroyed. l love TO
go to n home where l feel that no extra
preparations have been made for my

and that is the highest honor Il family
can bcstow upon a stranger.
II know that am not alone In this
feeling, but that practically every other
woman who has ever spoken to mo on
the subject holds views exactly similar.
If our American women would only
learn how their guests feel on this
subject they would save worry and
trouble on both sides. and American
hospitality would mean much moro to
both hostess and guest than it does

STAFF boy Is
ON STAND AGAIN
ATTORNEYS FOR DEFENDANT EN:.
pEAVoR TO SHAKE LADS
STORY OF QUARREL.

Towner, N. D., Aug. 2.-Efforts on
the part of the attorneys for John
Staff to shake the testimony given
Thursday by the 9-year-old so NOT the
accused, marked the Staff murder trial
here yesterday. $780, .-
The boy, who is named after his
father, told Of the quarrel between
his father and mother, on the morning
the latter was shot. He old of the
angry words which ensued and how
his father finally struck his mother.
He heard all of this, he said, while
playing with a small rifle outside Of
the house. He was on the opposite
side Of the structure from the barrel
in which the body Of Mrs. Staff was
found, and did not see his father fire
the fatal shot.
The story of the quarrel, and the
threatening language which. Staff is
said to have used to his wife evident
ly made a deep impression on the jury,
and the attorneys for the defense
made a determined effort to shake the
boys testimony. "
The ross-examination which. was
begun yesterday morning by E. r, Sink
Ter was evidently intended'to show that
the boy had previously rehearsed his
story. In the main he stuck close
to the facts as he originally told them,
however.
1t is expected that the state will rest
its case and that the defense will be-
gin to put On witnesses this morning.
Most Of these will be chosen, it is
believed, with the view of shaking the
testimony brought in by. the state,
rather than brining out, new facts for
the defense.
The case may go to the jury tonight.
