TO VARY THE MENU
SOME NEW WAYS OF SERVING
WELL-KNoWN DISHES.
Apple Soup 10 Nothing Of Novelty,
But Always Approximation to
Prepare and Serve Up Saw
DRY Marrow Bones.


To vary the everyday menu, says
Housekeeper, 1t is a good idea to keep
up with new ways OF serving we'll
known dishes. Those who know how
can make much out OF little, so,
though the larder may seem almost
empty. the table may look as we'll
filed as on a market day.
= Apple Soup.-Peel and quarter a
quart of cooking apples, carefully
removing the cores; put into a kettle
with three pints of white stock, pep
per, salt, and three cloves; boil until
tender, strain and reheat, adding
cup Of sweet cream and dash of nut
meg and a tablespoon OF sugar. Serve
with toast squares.
Cucumber Soup.-Pare, quarter, and
remove the seeds from two cucum-
bers, cut in thick slices, and cover
with boiling water to draw out the
poison. Let them stand ten minutes,
then have ready two quarts OF white
stock, add the cucumbers, and boil
slowly until very tender, adding a
bunch of sweet herbs. Strain and
season and add a gill of cream, in
which two eggs have been well beat
en-. Serve at once with toast sippets.
Savory Marrow Bones.-Have mar
row bones cut the desired length and
boil them in a linen cloth in fair wa
ter long enough to release the mar
row. Stuff them with a mixture of
sweetbreads, mushrooms, the marrow
and savory seasoning and bake In a
moderate oven. When done, they may
be fitted with a paper collar and a
black ribbon tie, tied in a square
bow and a paper FOOLS cap. and
served on lace paper dollies.
Deviled Salad Balls.-Take the
yolks OF four hard-boiled eggs and
devil them, with salt, pepper, olive
oil, dash OF Worcestershire sauce, to
form the paste, then form into little
balls; roll in powdered nuts and drop
into the salad among the leaves.
Cover with mayonnaise.
Extra mayonnaise may be in the
center OF the salad in a half-lemon
skin, having slice cut from the
bottom, so that It will stand upright.
Layer Cake Soft Frosting.-In lay
ing up a cake with soft frosting, each
layer may be sprinkled with powdered
pistachio nuts. To make 1t especially
pretty for a festival occasion, the top
may be decorated with candied mint
and rose leaves.
In making the. dressing for any
salad, remember that only the very
best olive oil that can lie purchased
is allowable, for the dellcacy and
flavor of a salad may be ruined If a
cheap, heavy oil is used And such
oil may also make a salad most In
dlgestible, whereas the pure oil ia
most healthful and nourishlng.

IT'S WORK WE'LL DONE
Democratic Party Deserves the
Country'S Confidence.
Proper Revision of the Tariff Accom-
Pllshed Without Untoward Disturb
ance Of Business Marks an Era
In Craftsmanship.

For 20 years the people have been
trying to get the tariff revised, not by
its friends, but by their friends. Men
OF all parties have felt that the pro-
tective idea had been very greatly
overworked. Before the birth Of the
Progressive party, progressive Repub-
licans had been that something would
have to be done In the way of reduc-
Ing duties, declares the Indianapolis
News The arguments for a tariff
commission. when they were honest,
as they have not always been, were
prompted by this feeling. One Of the
greatest tariff speeches ever made, at
least in our time, was that Of Sen
ator Dolliver, in opposition to the
Payne-Aldrich bill.
Yet in spite of the pressure for low
er duties, nothing whatever was done.
When the Republicans we're swept into
power in 1896, they interpreted the
verdict OF the election as in favor of
a higher tariff So they at once pass
ed the Dingley bill, with greatly high
er duties, and turned their back on
the real issue, which was that of the
gold against the silver standard. And
the Dingley tariff lasted for ~ years.
In the campaign of 1908 the Republic
ans were unable to resist the popular
demand, and they promised to revise
the tariff, and Of course, revision
meant revision downward For no one
ventured even to suggest that the
Dingley duties we're not high enough.
But they failed to keep their pledge.
Instead Of revising the tariff down
ward, they gave us the Payne-Aldrich
law, which in many particulars, was
worse than the Dingley law-at least
1t was not revision downward. Here
began the split in the Republican
ranks. Amid all the talk about initia-
tive, referendum, recall, recall OF jul
dicial decisions, and fluid constitu-
tons, people forgot that the break in
the Republican ranks was over the tar
If. But such is the fact The re-
volt was against extreme protection
In the campaign last year the tariff
question was again at the front. 1t
was the most popular issue that the
Democrats had. They elected Dem
ocratic president, a Democratic senate
and a Democratic house. Instead Of
turning away, as the Republicans did,
from the paramount issue of the cam
paign, they at once set about the work
Of revising the tariff-and this time
downward. And now the work is prac-
tically done. The long battle has been
won.
We do not believe that there has
been a tariff, certainly not since the
war, made under such favorable and
clean conditions as this one. The
lobby was driven out of Washington
by the president, and congress has
been free to serve the people without
being deviled by the representatives
Of special interests. No on claims that
the bill is perfect. But the standard
of comparison is, not perfection, but
Republican tariffs. We have certainly
improved on them, and come measur-
ably near meeting the wishes of the
people. The bill is a good bill. The
president and congress have done their
work well.

CONGRESS Must Act.

A few years ago little clique of
Wall street magnates were able to
bring hard times on the nation when
ever they pleased. They learned the
full extent of their power in the crash
Of 19O7-and the country learned a
little of the evils Of this irresponsible
control. AS a result Of this lesson,
the Vreeland law was passed, author
izing the issue Of emergency currency,
and providing other safeguards against
panic.
The Vreeland law expires by limita-
ton June 30, 1914 Unless congress
acts in the meantime, the money lords
will then get back the power they
welded in 1907.

Jelly Maklnn.

The owner OF a large canning fac
tory claims that the superior flavor
of his jelly is due to the method fol-
lowed in its preparation. In summer
he cans the Juice from well-boiled
fruit, and seals, while hot, in gallon
jars, whose tops, after being tightly
screwed on, are fastened securely by
pouring melted shellac around the
edges. When cooler weather sets IN,
the cans are opened and the juice
boiled into jelly. The longer the juice
is kept the richer will be the jelly.
Another easy way to make jelly is
to boil the fruit in a muslin jelly-bag,
boiling until contents of the bag are
soft. Lift out and suspend on hook
all night to drain.

Scotch Quick Cakes.

Rub three-quarters of a pound OF
butter into one pound Of sifted flour,
mix up into it pound Of granulated
sugar and large tablespoonful OF
powdered cinnamon. Mix to a dough
with three well beaten eggs. roll out
into a sheet, cut into round cakes and
bake in a quick oven. These cakes
require but few minutes to cook.

Leadership by Right.

The complaint of President Wilson's
debating" is bosh, and everyone
knows it. The presidents ascendancy
is the leadership of strong, fearless,
clear-headed man, who means to do
his duty, and insists that his col
leagues shall do theirs. He steps out
ahead, and public opinion forces lag
CARDS in other departments of govern
ment to close ranks and follow. II
the president took the wrong road he
would be powerless-but, SO far he has
not taken the wrong road.

Decision Against Usage AlIottes


An individual allottee Of the Usage
nation cannot receive all of the roy
alties accruing from oil or gas prs
duced on their allotments under an
opinion handed down b. Judge Sharp
of the supreme court commission, in
affirming the decision of the district
court OF Usage county in the case of
Martha Leahy, an Indian, against the
Indian Territory Illuminating Oil and
Gas company.
BY an act of congress the royalties
from oil and gas produced on allot
ments in the Usage nation are to be
paid directly into the treasury of the
United States and then prorated
among all of the members of the tribe,
the division to be made as near equal
as possible Martha Leahy, who owns
considerable property in the lease
covered by the Indian Territory Hum
mating Oil company, sought to have
this provision nullified so that she
would receive all of the royalties from
the oil and gas produced on her allot-
ments.
The case was tried in the district
court of Usage county where a judg-
ment against the allottee was rem
dered, and which is upheld in the
opinion by Judge Sharp.
The question decided upon by Judge
Sharp is of great importance on the
east side of the state where Indian
allotments are most numerous.

TwO-cent Fares Increase Travel

ny Tic COlpOldJlOu commission Nlot
the railroads of Oklahoma will do
more business and increase their gross
earnings under the two-cent rate than
under the three-cent rate is given in
the report of the Kansas City Southern
Railway company which has been filed
with the commission.
The report, made in response to an
order of the commission, gives COM
parison of the business and earnings
of the company for the month of July,
1912, and for the corresponding month
of 1913 The reports show an increase
in gross earnings Of % per cent as
compared with July, 1912, when the
three-cent rate was effective. 1t also
shows an increase of 81 percent in the
amount of passenger business handled
by the company in July, 1879 as
compared with July, 1912.
The Kansas City Southern operates
only about $50 miles of road in Okla
bona. 1t is the first road to file its
report with the commission showing
the difference in business and earn
ings under the new rate as compared
with the old rate.
This information is gathered by the
commission to use in its argument
when the two-cent rate question comes
before the courts again.

the present time in the lake shore dis

with such varieties have been too

From the standpoint of soil, climate
and market advantages. perhaps no
agricultural crop grown In Wisconsin
offers better commercial possibilities
than the potato. Realizing this, the
farmers of Wisconsin, fast becoming
the leading potato state In the coun-
try, have started a campaign to en-
courage the raising of but one or at
least a very few standard varieties
in each community, and then in every
way possible to prevent the mixing of
varieties-a practice which has done
more than anything else to injure the
reputation of wisconsin, grown pota-
toes upon the leading markets and
with the largest buyers of seed The
importance of giving attention to cor
rect market standards is emphasized
by consideration Of the value of the
potato industry in the state. During
1911 the crop Appropriated 30,000.0 900
bushels, and at conservative esti-
mate the value OF this crop would be
$40, 100000. Three counties in the
central part of the state produced
