OLD CHICKEN FOR FRYING
More Economical and as Appetizlng
as Young Bird If Prepared In
This Fashion.

Few women know that from the
much-despised old hen one car make
a delicious dish Of fried chicken. The
market price of old fowl is always
from 4 to 6 cents less per pound than
that for the young birds; also, the
former has the better flavor.
Clean and cut up the old bird as for
stewing (this must be done in the
morning for an evening dinner), put in
stew pan two small onions, some pars-
ley, salt to taste and a pinch Of pap
rika. Add the chicken and enough
water and stew gently until tender.
Do not take the fowl from the stew
pot too soon, as herein lies the secret
Of a tasty meal, but allow it to remain
in its own juices until you are ready
to fry it. Then remov to a platter
and lightly -four each piece.
Have your frying pan hot; add your
butter and a few tablespoonfuls o.
olive oil. Fry to a delicate brown and
serve in a bed Of lettuce, with mill
dressing, or cream, If preferred.
The chicken stock will make a fine
cream of chicken soup or clear soup
for luncheon.
If the hen is fat, there will be on the
soup stock, when cooled, a large
amount of rendered fat, which maybe
SKINNED off and used for frying pota
toes, thus affording saving in lard.

Apple Cream Cake.

Make a one-egg cake and bake in
round tin and cut with sharp knife.
Use this cream between and on top
and scatter whole preserved straw
berries over top if you have them:
Cream-Bake three tart apples after
coring. Scrape out inside of apple and
beat till it grows light colored, then
add a little confectioner's sugar and
beat again. Then add stif1y beaten
white of one egg and beat and ado
enough more con~fectioner's sugar
beating constantly till about the con.
s~istency of heavy whipped IA Use
the day after making. 1t sets into
a sort of sponge and looks like
whipped cream. The more you beat II

PROPER CARE OF BLANKETS
Usefulness May Be Greatly Added to
by Adoption Of Methods De-
scribed Here.

II housewives knew what a great
saving there was in having three or
even four sets Of blankets for their
beds, In as many weights, they would
not hesitate to make the outlay for
them. The cotton or silk and cotton
blankets of June, July and August
should be washed and rebound. II
needed, and put away In their tar bags
to give place to those of cotton and
wool.
Now, the Atwood blankets, as all
housewives know, are most difficult
to launder perfectly, and are not al
ways satisfactorily dry cleaned, so
every effort must be made to keep
them clean. This is done by using
them only in the extreme cold months,
December, January and February,
then shaking and airing them care
fully, putting them away. If the up
per sheet is very long, SO that 1t folds
over, and the spread is used over the
blankets, they may really be used two
seasons or more without a real wash
ing being necessary.
This method prolongS the Lire OF the
blankets and makes them always seen
new, And once in two years n may
afford to buy a new pair of blankets
to use for best or to replace those
that have grown the shabbiest in
service.
Old blankets are always in demand
in the household economy for under
blankets, ironing board pads, scrub
rags and polishing hardwood floors
and In a dozen other ways
The Indian blankets offered in our
markets today are rather new, but
already in demand, especially those
of the Navajo weaving. This tribe
numbers about 1000 natives and they
have a million sheep on their reserva
lions. The designs On their blankets
are geometrical as a rule, and the
colors are black, blue, red, yellow ant
gray. They are warm and durable, 81

travellers and residents at the arm!
posts. They are also quite a dominan
note in the eastern blanket centers.

Well worth consideration is this ex-
tract from an editorial in the Chicago
Record-Herald:
= 1.-THE problem is to educate these
grown-up children into mental and
moral maturity. That is no easy
task. Rather it is an arduous effort
to which many a life must be given,
and it will never be helped along by
oratory, but only by the patient teach
ing of line upon line, preeept upon
precept, till the fundamentals of hon
esty, thrift, thoroughness and keeping
ones word have been drilled into
their understanding and worked out
by them in practise. To that end such
a humble and patient propaganda as
Booker Washington's, aiming to make
the blacks into well-behaved citizens
and good workers, honest and reliable,
is worth all the oratory of Demos
themes and Cicero and Alexander l..
Jackson combined"

The Southern negro is working out
his own salvation, not in terms of poll
tics, not in terms of formal education,
but in terms of property ownership;
and mainly in terms of land in the
rural regions. He is doing this with
out let or hindrance in the South,
largely aside from the awareness of
the whites, largely because of their in
difference, but eve more largely with
the sympathy and help of his white
friends and neighbors. He is lifting
himself by Juggling at his own boot
straps, a figure commonly used to in
dicate an impossible something; but
in civilization, as in education, 1t is the
only possible means of elevation.
The negro is emerging from Jungle
ism and winning civilization mainly
and necessarily by his own efforts. His
progress every inch of the way is
marked by struggle-struggle within
himself for mastery over himself and
| struggle outward, surrounding circum-
stances.
The negro problem will not be
solved by editorials, creeds or stat
utes; by conferences, congresses or
assemblies; by pride, prejudice OF pas
sion. The development of the negro
can be stimulated, safeguarded and di-
rected wisely and b~eneficently. The
stream OF tendencies can be kept clear

A final word on the subject of u
personal responsibility as al executive
council to the churches seems to be
needed, says a correspondent of the
Standard. 1t has been suggested that
the executive council should ignore all
organizations among the churches and
deal directly with local churches. In
many cases that may be the fair and
proper way to operate, but / am firmly
convinced that the experiences of the
executive council in its work Is well
as the present needs of the negro
churches only tend to emphasize the
advisability of using our friendly Of
fees to secure among the negro
churches such IN organization OF
forces as will win the respect and the
regard of possible benefactors and
make it possible for us to do through
them as a group force, what we are
confident that we could do less salts

rately and ignored that important and
