CELEBRATE A BIT IN YOUR COOKING

Similarly the same dessert may be
varied by placing one-half in large
mold and using with one kind of
sauce, and the other half in small
molds with another sauce, but both
cooked at once
Fish lends itself capitally to this
idea, writes a contributor to the AS
bury Park Press. First boil double
amount and serve one-half with a hot
egg sauce; later on you can use the
second half in scalloped form, in a
salad or in loaf. The first cooking
probably took thirty minutes; the sec
ond, or short" cooking, ought to take
about fifteen minutes, and thus save
from that to an extra hour on the
second day.
Meats also can be planned after this
idea, and 1t Is true that more women
follow this idea with meats than with
any other foods, but far more short
cuts can be taken with vegetables,
with potatoes, with desserts and
fruits, by cooking a double quantity
at one time and serving the second
half with almost no cooking.

CONSIDERATIONS FOR THE MoTHER-IN-LAW

- No moment in a woman's life is
quite so difficult as that in which
she meets her sons future wife for
the first time. Perhaps the moment
is almost as difficult for the fianeee,
but she possesses the glorious self
confidence of youth, and cannot quite
grasp the viewpoint of the woman
who knows that the marriage of her
son means her loss, but his gain,
says the Philadelphia Evening Tele-
graph. A mother rarely loses the
love and friendship of a daughter who
marries, but when her son weds she
instinctively commits one of two
possible grave errors-she irritates
her daughter-in-law by meddlipg in
the affairs of the new little home, or,
in her anxiety not to seem Interior
ing, she stands aloof and apparently
Indifferent.
The force of convention makes it
particularly difficult for a woman to
play successfully her role of mother
in-law. Tradition says that all moth
ers-in-law are disagreeable, officious
creatures, and even If Daisy is pre-
pared to be charming to her hus-
bands mother. there is always an
uneasy feeling in her mind that If she
is too friendly with Dicks mater she
may PitEhAAAD uBpAA IL anu AAAeAANS liz
intimacy an, excuse for meddling and
wholesale criticism.
If your boy comes to you and tells
you that he is engaged to the dear
est little woman in the world" make
up your mind that you will, so far
as is possible, treat her as an equal
in experience and judgment. Prob
ably she has a mother of her own to
guide and help her if she needs help
and guidance, and If you attempt to
mother her, be it ever so kindly, she
may resent it in the fear that your
maternal attitude is but the prelude
TO the conventional mother-in-law at
titude. Young brides are always
making fascinating plans; one of the
most delightful aspects of marriage
to many girls is their freedom to do
exactly as they like in their own lit
tie homes.
'Tve always had to do just as
mother wanted" remarked a young
wife. 81 don't mean, of course, in
my private life, but in the house.
1--WE girls didn't dare move a cush-
ion or a chair out of its right place,
It's such a treat to have a den OF
my own now and do what 1 like"
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1914-07-25

It is paradoxical how many women
complain of work, of how much dis
comfort they have to endure, when
much of this discomfort is unneces-
sary. In most of our cooking far too
great a percentage of heat is unutil-
lied and goes into the air, and thus
makes the kitchen warm instead of
cooking the food.
There are many fuel savers. like
the fireless cooker, insulated portable
oven, hods for sadirons and the steam
compartment cookers, all of which
save fuel either by conserving it or
by cooking several things over one
burner.
But aside from these excellent COM
mercial aids, which every woman
should invest in as much as her
pocketbook will permit, there are
methods and short cuts which any
woman can follow at no cost except
the use of her gray matter, which
is often much more difficult to use
than any other labor saver"
First let there be better planning
of meals. BY SO doing much I'M
necessary cooking will be avoided.
For instance, without plan for sew
eral days ahead, one might decide
on mashed potatoes today and string
beans, and tomorrow on fried pota-
toes and tomatoes. Now, with a plan
in mind, enough potatoes might be
cooked at one time for two meals.
Instead of cooking beans today and
tomatoes tomorrow enough beans
could be cooked at once to use the
second time as a cold salad. If one
did not wish to have the same food
on successive days one day could
elapse between when there are good
storage facilities.
All vegetables can be used hot once
and cold in a salad, or part In a
cream sauce, and the second guam
titv with drawn butter only.
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1914-07-25

So if you are a mother-in-law or
about to become one, don't continu-
ally criticise the home ideals of the
young woman your son loves. She'll
find out her mistakes soon enough
Treat her as you would a friend,
and your sons bride will love you
and bring you much happiness. Once
you show her that you mean to be
her pal the rest will be easy, and
whatever happens, don't let your
self become jealous of her Re-
member the time when, dearly as
you loved your old home, you left 1t
to marry man whom you perhaps
had not known long.
Your mother was not jealous of the
husband who took her place in your
life. II you. are a wise woman you
will let your sons wife see that you
are so sure of your boys love that
You can gladly welcome his bride
without a twinge of jealousy. Where
there is perfect love there is no room
for doubt or mistrust.

KEEPING CUT FLOWERS

through being worn, carried as bou-
uuet. or sent through the post, they
NAV often be~revived by cutting the
ends and plunginG them Immediately
into absolutely boiling water III they
are not too far gone the wrinkled
petals will begin to smooth out In a
few minutes, and freshness be more
or less restored by the time the water
is cold, when the stems should be cut
again, the wilted part being entirely
removed, and the flowers be put into
fresh, cool water.
Generally speaking, colored flowers
can be more perfectly restored than
white ones, which tend to become yell
low or else semi-transparent, and, as
might be expected, the thicker and
more s"heshy" the petals the better
the chance of revival.
If it is desired to keep cut flowers
or bouquet fresh for some time for
a special occasion, they should be
put into a vase or jar of water with
charcoal the vase set on a plate and
covered down with any available
glass vessel that is large enough, a
large tumbler, sugar bowl, bell-glass,
or one of the old glass shades used
to protect some precious trophy A
little water must be poured around
the inverted glass to keep out air,
and the flowers can then be preserved
for considerable time in the moist
atmosphere within. The cover should
be of glass-Montreal Herald.

Wilson's Golf Clubs

The President is to have some real
golf sticks from Scotland itself. At
the Wilson-McAdoo> wedding, at
which John A. Wilson, of Pennsylva-
mia, cousin of the President, was
present, the President was asked by
Mr. Wilson, who was about to go to
Europe, if he could bring him any
thing from Europe. The President
expressed a wish for some Scotch
golf clubs, and Mr. Wilson looked for
these when in England.
1t got to the ears of the Luncheon
Club, of London, which begged for
the honor of presenting the golf
sticks, and the members were Obliged.
A silver plate, suitably inscribed, will
be placed on the golf bag.
The sticks are expected to arrive
shortly, and so the President will be
able to use them on the golf courses
in Washington.

Our Cherry Tree

We have a cherry tree in our yard,
which was loaded down with cherries
this year. All the children on our
block enjoyed picking and eating the
cherries. They brought pans with
handles on to hang to the limbs and
pick cherries for pies and buildings.
The cherries made delicious pies and
buildings. Two or three times some
boys stole some of them, but not
many. And with all the bad thunder
and lightning storms there are still
some cherries left on the tree.

Suggestions for a Party

Dear Miss Doom:
Can you suggest any new ideas
for a party? L want to entertain
for about thirty of my friends.
want to remain outdoors and serve
supper on the veranda
ALLEN.
Why not have a butterfly party?
Many of your favors can be made
at home. The cost will be nomi-
nal. For butterfly party send out
invitations on large square cards
decorated with butterflies, asking
the guests to meet little Miss But
terfiy. Have ready for each guest
as she arrives a butterfly kimono in
simple or expensive fabrics, as de-
sired, and a number of little jan
anese fans to arrange in the hair.
Have the grounds decorated with
rows of red Japanese lanterns, all
ternating with butterflies made of
gauze and charmingly ornamented.
If preferred, realistic butterflies
can be made at home from bright
colored crepe paper and clothespins.
To construct these paint the
clothespins black, pleat some bright
yellow, scarlet and silver crepe
paper in the middle and draw
through the painted clothespin, cut
ting the paper to resemble wings.
A more perfect body can be made
by taking small roll of cotton, COW
ering it with crepe paper and tying
near the top for the head. Have
also bowl of roses and ferns and
in brazier a few stems of SAN
dalwood or punk burning to give
the "Japanesy" fragrance.
escort them to the dining-room,
where a low table should have been
arranged in regular Japanese FASH
ion, a foot or foot and a half from
the floor.
If you have extra table leaves
this can be arranged at home; il
not any carpenter or person handy
with tools can build one from or
binary boards.
The table should have been COW
cred with white crepe paper or
silkoline and strewn thickIy with
rose leaves arranged artistically
and shaded in colors.
Arrange two cushions on the floor
beside the table for each person
so that she can curl up comfort
ably for the protracted luncheon.
This, to be strictly Japanese, should
pc served in many courses, with
different china and fresh napkin
for each course.
The japanese method is to serve
one thing at time, then remove
every dish and even the napkins.
These, however, are carefully fold
ed and used again when similar
courses are put on. The first
course. served with chopsticks,
should be seaweed, which can be
purchased in the Chinese quarter,
as also the various Oriental sweets
and nuts.
If you could hire a Japanese or
Chinese cook you could have reg
ular Japanese luncheon, beginning
with the seaweed and following with
chowman, rice leach kernel per-
fecD, chicken chop suey, yokyman,
then all the various preserves and
nuts with q pot of tea for each
Individual. AS your guests may
not relish the real Japanese dishes
you might serve menu something
like it, and still preserves the jap
anese atmosphere.
Rose leaves should be sprinlkled
over everything served.

Carpet-SaYng Hint

Every now and then, instead OF
allowing the carpet to remain in ex-
aetly the same position as first
placed, the tread of the carpet should
be moved a couple OF inches or so
either up or down.
This has the effect of keeping the
pile of the carpet in a uniform coz
dition, and, besides retaining the
fresh appearance of the carpet, It
helps it to last much longer than it
would if left exactly as laid. 1t costs
nothing to do this, yet saves much

Reflection

For, 10, these many years
My feet have trod
The lonely paths Of silence,
Bare and unshod.
Far down the vista
OF the dear dead years seems
Like an echo; the far-off sound
OF childish laughter mingled with
the fretful tears.
Till, like when the moon has hid be-
hind a rift of cloud and comes
Again more brighter and more
proud,
I, too, shall take new hope and
courage
For the paths these feet have yet to
trod.
