I have just hung these wash curtains on
picture wires in front of the books, and you
would be surprised to see how the thin
draperies protect them from the dust"
In her bedrooms much the same plan had
been followed. She had little upholstery
there. but what she had was covered; there
were only shades at the windows, the

banished, and she had. as she said, got
down to first principles"

carpets and stow away curtains and chairs
and couches, we have nothing left!''
This standpoint recognize, and because
of my recognition am talking to you to-
day. To my mind one of the most impor-
tant elements in wise housekeeping is know
ing how to do without things and how to
make substitutes take the place of the arti-
cles you can't afford to buy.
Let me tell you of little lesson Of that
sort learned a good while ago from a prac-
teal young housewife of slender income
who, you have just said, had had all she
could do to furnish her house in the first
place and for whom 1t was impossible to
get second Quitting to spare the original
one She was obliged to spend the summer
in town, and one day when business
brought me from my country home to the
city I accepted the Invitation she had often
given me to drop in and lunch with her.
The first impression made upon me by
her rooms was one of GOODNESS and space.
The latter surprised me, for I had seen
the house in winter and it had struck me
as being decidedly circunscribed. By the

SUMNER CHANGES IN THE HOME

time she had relieved me of my hat and
light wrap and had become accustomed to
the half obscurity I began to perceive what
was the reason of the changed appearance
The floors were entirely bare except for
two or three light rag rugs. The sofa and
one or two upholstered chairs had white
coverings; the other seats. which recog-
nized the cushioned wicker chairs had
seen my winter visits to her house, were
stripped of their pillows Small white
cloths were thrown over the tables, all the
portieres had been removed from the door
ways, and the long curtains which usually
hung at the windows had been replaced by
little sash curtains of dotted muslin
cheesecloth. Hardly an ornament was to
be seen except a vase or two of field flow
ers. even the pictures had nearly all been
taken down. and those that were left had
plain wooden frames which could easily be
wiped or even washed off.

Prepne Salads of All Kinds.

may have told of the clever little house
wife who used to make a veal pot pie with
plenty of gravy and sinkers and not much
meat" Take a leaf out of her book and
feed your family stews with vegetables
and light, delicate dumplings and well sea-
soned gravy, and SEQ II this will not suit
them as well as meat in coarse abundance.
Try italian combinations OF macaroni and
cheese or noodles and cheese enriched with
a meat gravy. Make savory rice dishes
In which the meat is a negligible quantity
and is yet sufficient to render the compound
appetizine Introduce salads of all kinds,
with French dressing or mayonnaise or one
of the good boiled dressings. Turn to the
generous choice of vegetables that come
to us in the summer.
Fill tomatoes or peppers or cucumbers or
egg plant or potatoes with a well seasoned
stuff1ng which contains no meat or only
enough to give a zest to the food. Compose
scaIlops along the same line and vegetable
stews of like kind.
Do you think am contradicting myself
when tell you In one breath to simplify
life and in the next urge you to study
variety? The two pieces of counsel do not
interfere with one another. The time and
strength you save by reducing the work
of keeping your house clean and in order
is not all spent in cookery, even IL you
have novelties on your table. They need
not require much care or labor and the
change of menu. like the change you achieve
by altering your room and its furnishings,
will give you something different that will
be an equivalent to fresh surroundings

powers unduly as well tire you In the
preparation. If the high price OF meat
has done nothing else good for US 1t shoulo
at least have instructed US in compromising
substitutes which do not drain our purses

Study dishes you can give your house
hold instead of meat. Those containing
cooked cheese are as nutritious. more

not only the items they need to support
life-albumen. protedds fat. st&rch-but
you are supplying them with an appetiz-
ing dish which they will welcome as
variety from the meat on which they have
been fed all through the cold season.
A skilled writer on dietetics who has
recently published an epoch making book
on his chosen subject, declares that we
are getting to the period when meat Will
not be devoured so much as a food by itself
a used as a flavor for other articles. NOW
in the summer, is the best time to expert
ment with it, to put little meat with your
vegetables, to combine small amounts OF
meat with eggs, with bread, with sauces III
you do this skillfully you will not have much
difficulty in reconciling the members OF the
household to the innovation.

because when the recipe was used the APPEL
strudel did not turn out as it should.
shrank, therefore, from printing the others
Encouraged now by the words of Mrs. c.
E. M, 1 print another recipe for APPEL
strudel which 1 have received. with the
warning that have not tried the instruc-
tions and that any one who tries them must
do it at her own risk and hold me blame
less If the result is a failure. Here is one of
the several which still remain in my desk.
AS they are all long and much detailed,
hope I may be pardoned If 1 cannot make
room for any more of them have chosen
one which appears practical and as simple
as any of them.
APFEL-STRUDEL-M dough as
for biscuit of one quart flour, two heaping
teaspoons baking powder, butter the size
of large egg, pinch Of salt, milk or
water sufficient to make batter stiff
enough to roll. Turn the dough out on
clean, well Toured tablecloth and roll out
very thin-about eighth of an inch;
brush it well over the top with two well
beaten eggs. Some use three or four clean
feathers tied together or a small brush to
do this. Then spread on a layer of thinly
sliced or chopped mellow apples, sprinkle
with sugar, a quarter pound of nut meats.
a half pound Of seeded raisins which have
been cleaned and simmered for about ten
minutes. Begin at one edge to roll the
dough you would jelly roll, and after 1t
is we'll started raise one end of the cloth
high enough to let the dough finish rolling.
Take the roll and coil it around in a but
tered pan and bake twenty thirty min
utes. 1t is fine with layer Of smearcase
with little sugar two tablespoons melted
butter, and half cup of raisins or currants
instead of apple, or with any kind of ber-
ries. The dough in this recipe is greatly
modified by Prof. Emil Sage, as the old
fashioned way of preparing it is too cum
bersome for the American housewife, and
none but a seasoned old country German
would prepare this dish as it is done in Ger
many.
q would like to ask this Cornerite just
what kind of torte she means, as there
are so many kinds of them Some are pre-
pared in a kind of pie style, although the
preparation of the crust differs a good deal
from a pie crust, and there are torten that
are like loaf or layer cake prepared with
out bit of baking powder, but with plenty
of eggs and just beaten light. am an old
country German and possess a precious
cook book which brought along. and am
glad if 1 can share the recipes with any ono
interested in German cooking.

OW you planning to make your
house ready for summer?
Probably your answer to this
question will depend to some extent
on the place in which you live. If
this Is in a warm section your changes will
be more thorough than are necessary in a
higher latitude.
1 recoIlect very distinctly a visit paid
as a young girl to friends living in part
of the south where the summers are long
and hot. The carpets which covered the
floor In winter were taken UP in the spring
and mattings laid in their place. heavy
draper1es were removed. and everything
Aone to give the rooms a look of GOODNESS
and airiness. 1t impressed me then, as it
does now. as an eminently wise course.
Several reasons for the change appeal to
you at once. In the first place there is
doubt that a place which looks cool makes
you feel cool. Upholstered furniture. thick
hangings, wooden rugs all have their share
in adding to the apparent warmth of
room, and the treatment which gives the
apartment a look of cozy comfort in win
ter Is the very feature which makes it
close and stuffy in summer. So seem cool
If you wish to be cool.
Economy also moves to put out of the
way during the weather when sll windows
will fade or be injured by the dust which
you cannot exclude altogether, no matter
whet pains you take. Constant brushing
does the fabrics with which your floors
and furniture are covered and your doors
and windows draped as much harm as al
lowing the dust to settle into them You
save wear and tear on them and economic
time and effort for yourself when you BAN
ash them until GOODNESS comes again.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1913-05-24

still at home whose wishes you cannot
meet At the same time, to my mind. these
attractions are not essential to holding the
young people with you. All the artificial
amusements and entertainments in the
world are of little account compared to
understanding and sympathy between par
ents and children, and these you can have
when there is little besides How much Of
yourself do you give to your children in the
way of companionship? You speak of read
ing having a tendency to isolate them from
each other and to make them selfish. Have
you tried having them read aloud to you
or to each other? Have you done all you
could to interest them in such simple en-
joyments-games and the like-that you
can have In your home at little no ex-
pense? You say your boy gave up school
because he could not entertain his class.
The boys with whom have been intimate
had no such standard of education this
1 do not mean to be unsympatheic, but 1
wonder If perhaps a modification of your
attitude towards your children might not
be a healthful thing all around.
I am printing your request for the articles
your sons and daughter feel would con-
tribute to their happiness and hope some
one may respond as they wish. Also I
trust that some other parents who have
had somewhat similar experiences with
children will give the result of their
observations in way which may prove
helpful to you.
Chicken la Espdnol.''
I'm answer to one OF your inquiries
wish to say that the Chicken a la Es-
panol is creamed chicken with the addi-
ton of chopped onion, a chopped green
chilli, and half cup of cooked green peas.
Canned red peppers may be substituted
by those whose taste is for milder dishes.

1 thank you for your elucidation and even
more for the kind personal remarks you
make relative to the Corner and the fash

are my reward and my encouragement.
ApfeLStrudel.
1 was glad to see Mrs J. A. LIS letter
asking for apfel-strudel I have been try
ing for six years to find some one who knew
how to make it. 1t requires time and skill
and much practice to make 1t a success. as
the dough is stretched on a well Toured
tablecloth, apples are put on it, and it is
folded. The beauty of it is that the inside
layers are as brown and tender the out
side 1t is delicious. 1t is not pie crust
nor is 1t a noodle dough. It is very rare, as
only few Germans and Hungarians know
how to make it hope some good haus-
frau will send directions in detail.
