he automobile manufacturer is get ting nearer the pocketbook of the average man than ever. This fact will be emphasized at the coming autono pile show which is to be held in Me chantcS building, Boston, March I to 14, where there will be several new makes of cars that will sell for con- siderably under $500. These are built along regular automobile lines and ap- plcations. There will also be a dis play of cycle cars which will be of fered at very low price so the poor" mans car seems to have arrived
 The variety of these low-priced models at the coming show promises to be greater than was displayed at The New York or will be at the Chi- cago show because of the fact that most of these makes are now only in tne process ot construction and will not be built before March 1. This IS also true of cycle cars, as it was only few months ago that the idea of building this hybrid type got firm ly into the minds of the American manufacturers
 The low priced cars that will com pete with the cycle cars in price will have the standard tread, regulation steel frame, sliding gear transmission and four-cylinder motor. They will not in any way deviate from the speci- fcations of the larger automobile. ex- cept that they will be more diminutive and will essentially be of a quantity production which will enable the maker to sell them at such a low price.

Morn is Abroad"

Morn is abroad; the sun is up;
The dew fills high each lily's cup;
Ten thousands flow'rets springing
there
Diffuse their incense through the
air,
And smiling hail the morning beam
The fawns plunge painting in the
stream,
Or through the vale with light foot
spring;
Insect and bird are on the wing.
And all is bright as when in May
Young Nature holds a holiday.
The waves are smooth, the wind is
calm,
Onward the golden stream is
gliding
Amid the myrtle and the palm
And ilices its margin hiding.
Now sweepsit o'erthe jutting shoals,
X 4 y
Now deeply, softly, flows along,
Like ancient minstrel's warbling
song;
Then slowly, darby, thoughtfully,
Loses itself in the mighty Sea.

Kitchen Wrinkles.

Currant jelly is excellent for serv-
ing with game.
Persons who live mostly on vege-
tables have the best nerves and the
best compilations.
Fried sauSages or force-meat balls
make an appropriate garnish for
roast turkey, capon or fowl.
Fine table salt rubbed on marble
will remove a stain unless the latter
be of too long standing.
To remove the oder of onions
from a knife, dip it into running
cold water, then dry and polish it.
Small pickles, olives and capers,
minced very fine, is an excellent
seasoning for a salad dressing.
Mint either with or without par
sley makes the best sauce for roast
lamb. whether hot or cold.
Boston baked beans can be great
ly improved by adding a cupful of
sweet crean the last hour of bak-

Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1914-04-30

Hot water tends to set the cdor
of onions on knives, hands. etc,
and for this reason should be
avoided.
Bacon should be soaked in water
for three or four minutes before be-
ing fried, to prevent the fat from
running.
Carrots and onions will be better
if soaked in cold water for twelve
hours before using, to draw out the
strong flavor.
Carrots should be cut in slices nj
stead of cubes, because the darker
outside part is richer and better
and if cut in slices it is more equal
ly distributed
Red pepper is an excellent condi.
ment. Malaria, intermittent fever
or congestive chills cannot endure
the presence of red pepper. II
should be upon every table.-Col.
