~ OLD mutton, so much talked
about in English fiction, so
much thought about by Eng
~ fish cooks and housewives. re-
quires dainty handling to be
truly appealing. Served once after its
original appearance as a hot roast. &C.
companied perhaps by a dainty salad
cold mutton is delicious. But served cold
until the last remnants of the roast
have disappeared. 1t deteriorates into
q most unwelcome part of the menu.
Hash.
There are many ways of re-seryin 6
mutton in tempting forms. The most
usual is a hash-and hash has a hor-
rible sound to many persons But NUT
ton hash properly made is as tempt
ing as broiled chicken--if you like the
mutton taste.
The biggest mistake in hash making
Is that usually the gravy is heated and
then the meat is put into 1t and the
right way to make hash is to mix the
meat and gravy Fry little onion,
tomato or green pepper-or combina-
ton of any of them-in a little lard,
meat and gravy and simmer gently.
just below the boiling point, until just
before time to serve. Boil up once and
serve.
Grilled Mutton.
The second day of a roast cut rather
thick slices from it, the best pieces.
and brush them over with olive oil,
which is seasoned with little pepper
and salt. Then broil quickly for a
minute on each side.
Deviled Mutton.
This is the same as grilled mutton
excepting that curry powder is added
to the oil in which the slices are dip
ped.
Curried Mutton.
Curried mutton prepared from cold
cooked mutton is excellent. But it is
a dish that requires care in the max
ing. Peel and slice two tart apples
and two meaium-sized onions and fry
them lightly in drippings. Mix heap
ing teaspopnful OF flour and gradually
mix it with cupful of stock. Pour
this overithe apples and onions and stir
until it boils and becomes thick. Then
strain and season with salt and pepper.
Cool it and add pound and half of
small pieces of mutton. Heat slowly
and serve. with boiled rice. .--.-5

GOODNOW COMMENDS

PEKLNG, Aug 14-Dr. Frank j.
FGoodnow, who plans to give up his post
Of adviser to the President OF CHINA
and return to America in August to De-
come president of Johns Hopkins Uni
versity, is pleased with the revision OF
the provisional constitution Of this coun-
try. Though the revision Of the consti-
tuition is criticised and ridiculed by the
foreign press published in China-the
Chinese press not daring to do so-Dr.
Goodnow saws II Is much like the drafts
which he drew I'D at the request OF the
president. 1T is modelled in n large

As reported in the cable dispatches
the revised constitution gives the presl-
dent practically dictatorial powers lie

He is now surrounded with the ioriiis
of legality.

form OF representative government
based upon European ideas. The pro-
visional constitution itself provides for
a permanent constitution, which Is TO
be submitted to a citizens conference
to be convoked by the President. and
to be organized by the same body
which has drawn up the present re-
vised provisional constitution. II ex-
perience should show that the powers
granted to the President by the provi-
sional constitution are too large. and
that It Is possible. under conditions now
existing in China, for a legisla tive body
capable OF effective action to develop,
there Is no reason to suppose that
China may not take successfully its
first steps along the road of constitu-
tionai government under this revised

been indicated in Japan under a similar
instrument"
