SPINACH A SPRING VEGETABLE

Spinach should be one OF the most
healthful, but there is no other vege-
table more abused or ruined in the
cooking. 1t is rich in mineral mat
ter and potash salts, and by the or
binary way of cooking these are al
most entirely lost. 1t is also laxa-
tive, although it does not supply
much nutriment.
Wash spinach many times in clear,
cold water. Be sure it is perfectly
free from sand and dust. Put into
sauce pan, with tight cover. Do not
put in drop of water. Cover closely
and cook about fifteen minutes. The
juice will run out and it will cook in
that. Stir. up once or twice. When
done strain, chop fine and season
with butter, salt and pepper. Serve
with either hard-boiled eggs or cream
sauce.

CHINESE INDULGE
IN USUAL MISTAKE

Pekin, Aug. 29.--It Is reported that
the Japanese tried to land troops at
different points on the Shan Tung
coast, hut that the Chinese prevented
It, insisting that 1t would be breach
of neutrality.
Not wishing to bring about compi-
cations with China the japanese did
not land, but decided to await in
structions from the home govern
ment.
Chinese troops occupy Weihsien
and other places north OF Using Tao,
and detachnents guard the ShSn
Tung railway German munitions
and supplies are being carried over
the Chinese railroads in the direc-
ton OF Using Tao and German re-
servists still are going into the leased
territory.
China's action is believed to be a
mistake, owing 10 the fact that the
local authorities have no instructions
to interfere with the Japanese. 1t Is
not believeable that China would at
tempt to hold back the Japanese, as II
~ now in no position 10 enforce strict
neutrality The Japanese withdrawal
for the time being is looked upon here
as indicating sincere desire not to
have any conflict with China.
