Culinary
Notes
Economizing on Meat.

Meat once day is surely enough fol
health. Let us draw the line at twice
and make our third meal without It.
Tastes differ, and most men would
rather have Il meat breakfast and o
bread and cheese lunch. while women
would oftener bc-happy with break
fast Of rolls and coffee, if only they
might have good midday dinner and
n solid tea. Numbers Of women care
nothing for late dinner and only pre-
tend to eat it to keep their men folk
company.
With one good meal Of meat or fish
or game and an abundance of bread,
fruit and some sort Of fat. there is nc
possible chance Of starvation for any
body. The various savories that are
invented to take the place Of meat at
the third meal really are meant to take
it's place in taste and, above all, In
imagination, to smooth the temper
and allay the fears Of those who do
not like anything to eat except meat
and game and fish or things favored
to taste like them.

A WORLD THANKSGIVING.
Why Should America Have Monopoly
of the Holiday

Why Should America Have Monopoly
Of the Holiday E
This being the Thanksgiving season.
it should be the proper time to ask why
the United States Of America has/a
monopoly on the celebration of day
OF thanks to the supreme Giver for the
blessings he has conferred.
Why is there not a day of universal
thanks, when all the civilized nations
Of the earth could get together for one
day and proffer their thanks for the
blessings they have received? Every
civilized nation recognizes supreme
Ruler and Author Of all good, and Chris
tan, Jew, Mohammedan, Buddhist and
Confucian could unite for one day at
least in the brotherhood Of thankful
ness.
It would be a beautiful idea If we
in America who instituted this day OF
thanks could pass its spirit all around
the world and know that on this day,
when we pause while to offer thanks,
every other nation was doing the same.
That would be unity which has new
er yet been attained, but Of which no
man of any faith can give any good
and sufficient reason for its nonex1st-
ence.
There is absolutely no argument
against day Of universal thanks, and
II anybody-Jew or gentile-can object
to it should like to know the nature
of his objection. The feeling of CRATE
fitness is a common heritage Of man
kind, and, as it is, why should man
kind hesitate to become unit in its
acknowledgment? We can have world
expositions, world congresses, world
societies, world tribunals, so why not a
world Thanksgiving day?-W. ]. Lamp
ton In Letter to New York World.

Broadcloth and serge are always In
demand for street dresses, but this
year there is even d greater vogue for
peau de souris, velours de laine and
duvetyn, the latter now being woven
to give as much satisfaction as broad
cloth itself.
Ripple cloth, which looks exactly as
its name implies, but is actually a
smooth weave material, is being used
for many smart models, while wooden
Grape and poplins and even old fash
Toned cashmere are seen. This latter
material is splendid for the new mill
tary cape.
The gown of black satin which is H.
Illustrated has double tuniced skirt,
with bodice of black fabric fur, built
on lines which suggest the basque.
The vest is of white chiffon.

Prepared Cereals.

Autumn finds us with no lack of va

be eaten without further cooking after
they leave the factory. but they are
alike in one detail If in no other. The

grow fabby and tasteless and tough
unless restored by careful drying In
the oven for few minutes. One way
out there is Keep your packages on

happens when we forget for only a

When Baking Sponge Cake.

There are numerous reasons why
sponre cake will rise at the sides and
fall at the center. Here are some OF
them: Too hot an oven will cause
very light cake to rise rapidly around
the sides and fall in the middle. All ex'
cess of sugar will make the cake fall.
A cake will drop if the cake mixture
is too light with eggs or baking pow
der, when it needs more flour. Inc
shock Of slamming an oven door will
ruin the baking process, and the cake

THE TRUE THANKSGIVING.
By Rev. Dr.. JOSEPH KRAUSKOPF Of
Philadelphia.

Il 10 we'll that our fathers in
stituted the day of Thanksgiv-
ing on which to be made con-
scious of the countless blessings
that surrounded them and OF
their many obligations to rem
der praise and Thanksgiving to
the author Of them all. In re-
turn for Gods mercy we should
think of those in our midst not
so blessed as we and give them
also opportunity for being
thankful and for rejoicing. The
truly grateful feels that God
does not lavish his blessings
upon tho earth SO that few
may enjoy a great abundance
while others live in want. It is
wrong for ono to enjoy the feast
and for another to endure the
fast.
Tho truest joy is that which
springs from bringing JOY to
others. The truest gratitude 10
in that act which gives to others
tho opportunity for being srate-
full. The truest wealth is that
which, kindness stores up in the
heart Of tho sorrowing and sui
ferinq. Our noblest acquisitions
live only in our charity.

For Show and for Use.

Commercially, elephants in India
come under two classes-the one Of
pageantry, the other of utility. Every
native prince or nobleman of distinc-
ton in India keeps elephants to swell
his retinue, while, on the other hand,
government officials and private per-
sons, such as timber contractors, etc..
require them for work.

When Pseling Onions.

There is right way Of peeling on
ions, says one housewife. and If you
do them thus there will be no tears.
Simply hold the onions in your left
hand with the sprout end and root
down. Cut off top with few strokes
and peel downward toward the root.
When all of the peel IS loosened cut of
the root end, but never until last. If
you turn it round and do part in the
wrong direction you will be sure to
crV.

Olive Oil For Bastinu,

Olive oil may be used as substitute
for butter for Dastins purposes. A
ro;ist chicken which has been basted
with olive oil and Il little lemon juice
mixed with the bot water will be
found unusually delicious. and the
same applies to the basting of baked
fish. Small fish rolled in -four and
moistened with olive oil are easily
cooked by placing in a baking tin in
quick oven. The exterior Of the fish
will be well Drowned and give the ap-
pearance Of having been fried without
any Of the unpleasant odor usually
noticeable when fish is cooked in an
open pan on top of the range.

Praise God for wheat SO white and sweet

Praise God for yellow corn with which his

Praise God for fish and flesh and fowl ne

Praise God for winters store Of ice; praise
