BETTER THAN HOT VEGETABLE
Salads, Easily Made and inexpensive,
Should Have Place on Table
In Summer.

1t is not necessary to have expen-
sive asparagus tips or pimentos to
make the most delicious salad. The
humble string bean, carrot, turnip,
beet and lima bean offer most delight
full possibilities Finely shredded cab
bage with lima beans and grated car
carrot is most attractive. Beets and
string beans combine well, and to
those who like to make salads, even
the smallest scraps of leftover can be
utilized to advantage.
So then, in your summer cooking.
substitute the salad for the hot, steam
ing vegetable 1t will save time and
bother because then you can boil it in
the early GOODNESS of the day, lay in
the icebox, and have all prepared for
night without needing to bother just
at supper-time. Wash and clean the
lettuce early in the day, wrap in a
bag of paper toweling or square of
clean cheesecloth and put 1t In the ice
box, and your salad is practically
done.
A summer supper In some form of
aspic, meat loaf, or even hot meat
dish, together with a vegetable salad
dressed with plenty of olive oil, fruit
and bread and butter is ideal.

Courtlandt Tells story.
The colonel and his guests at lunch
con had listened to Courtlandt without
sound or movement beyond the occa-
sional rasp of feet shifting under the
table. He had begun with the old
familiar phrase-"I've got a story"
Tell it," had been the instant re-
quest.
At the beginning the men had been
leaning at various negligent angles
some with their elbows upon the table,
some with their arms thrown across
the backs of their chairs. The par
fridge had been excellent. the wine de-
licious, the tobacco irreproacbable.

And So" concluded the teller of the
tale, chat is the story. This man was
perfectly innocent Of any wrong, a
victim of malice on the one hand and
Of injustice on the other"
'Is that the end OF the yaIn?" asked
the colonel.
"Who In life knoWs what the end oil

fresh cigar from the box which Rae
passed to him, and dropped his dead

Ships HuIIs Quickly Cleaned.

Mr. F. C. Browne of Melbourne. Aus
tralia, has invented an ingenious ma
chine for cleaning the hulls of ships
below the water line. In this con-
trivance a watertight dynamo drives
a revolving brush that is held firmly
against the hull of the ship by small
propeller. After the machine has been
lowered by a crane from a small boat
alongside the steamer, the end that
holds the rapidly revolving brush is
worked up and down the sides of the
vessel. 1t is stated that the machine
can clean an S.00O-ton steamer in SIX
or seven hours.
