FOR OLD-FASHIONED CAKE
Recipe That Has Not Been Improved
on Since Our Grandmothers
Used to Make 1t.

Fruit for this should be prepared
In advance as follows: Six cupfuls of
currants, washed, dried and picked.
Three cupfuls sultana raisins, three
cupfuls of citron cut in fine strips, one
half cupful candied lemon peel, two
cupfuls of almonds blanched and cut
in shreds. In a warm bowl mix four
cupfuls of butter and four cupfuls of
sugar, granulated or confectioner's,
beat these together until very light.
Break ten eggs into another bowl, do
not beat them.
Cover a waiter with big sheet of
paper; sift four pints of flour over
this, add the fruit and the following
spices: two teaspoonfuls each of nut
meg, mace and cinnamon, one table
spoonful each of cloves and allspice.
Mix these together and stand aside
ready for use. Have ready in a little
pitcher one-half pint best brandy. Sc
lect a deep cake tin and grease with
butter line it inside with white paper
and on the outside and bottom with
four or five thicknesses of very thick
wrapping paper which you must tie
on. Have your oven hot and the fire
banked so it will not burn out quick
ly. Now beat the butter and sugar
once more, add the eggs two at time,
beating the mixture after each addi-
ton. When the eggs are all used, turn
in the flour and fruit with brandy, mix
thoroughly, pour into the prepared
cake tin, cover with several thickness
es of brown paper, and bake eight
hours, keeping the oven steady and
clear.
Remove from the oven and allow
it to stand on tin sheet until quite
cold. Ice with thin coat of white
icing top and sides and stand in cool
oven to dry, then give it second coat
of thick icing and ornament according
to fancy. An icing made of white
egg, a few drops of cold water and
confectioner's sugar is the best for
the thick icing.

BEFORE THE HEAVY COURSE
Some Delicious Appetizers That Are
Not at All Hard to Acquire
or Prepare.

The hors d'oeuvre is not much used
by private families in America, but
a dish of any of the things used will
admirably set off a modest meal. For
oysters or clans, cooked or raw, two
hours before serving chop two or
three shallots very fine and put them
in saucedish with salt, pepper, vine
gar and oil. Pass this around with
the shellfish, supplying small plates
for holding the sauce. Another ex-
cellent hors d'oeuvre can be made of
one green pepper, several slices of
Bermuda onion, and one firm, fresh
tomato. Peel the tomato and denude
the pepper of seeds. Then cut the
last in fine shreds, putting these on
top of slice of onion laid in turn on
slice of tomato. But do this indi.
vidual arrangement after the vege-
tables have marinated in a dressing
of olive oil, lemon juice or vinegar
and salt and pepper. Anchovies
preserved in oil, are famous appetiz-
ers, and they are served as they
come on a little dish with hard
boiled eggs chopped fine, capers and
minced parsley.
The Colorado statesman., 1914-12-26
Meat Eritters.

Cut cold tender cooked meat in fin
gers or slices and dip into batter or
chop and stir into the batter seasoned
with salt, pepper and herbs of chopped
onion as desired.
Plain Fritter Batter.-This batter is
used for all fritters as fruit, meat,
clans, etc. One cupful flour, one-half
teaspoonful baking powder, one-fourth
teaspoonful salt, two eggs, one cupful
milk. Sift dry ingredients together,
add beaten eggs and milk and beat
until smooth.

A Chef SUGGESTS:

That small pieces of chicken with
the merest bit of its own liver pounded
up with some cream and a little cora
line pepper make delicious paste to
spread on thin slices of brown bread
Before attempting to seed raisins
cover them with hot water and let
them stand Is minutes; then the seeds
can be removed easily without any
waste.
The leftover cooked potatoes should
not be piled together, as they will sour
quickly; spread them out on a large
dish.
That a teaspoonful of curry powder
added to the cream sauce in which
macaroni is baked greatly improves
the flavor.

Save Worn Liable CInths.

Probably you are convinced that you
are practicing all the economies
known to the up-to-date housekeeper,
but have you ever turned inward the
outer edges of a half-worn tablecloth?
1t is done exactly as wide sheet is
rejuvenated, and If very fine seam is
carefully felled down on the WRONG
side of the damask, the joining will
never show
Try it with the tablecloth you have
decided to cut up for napkins.

full butter creamed together, one-half

For Filling.-Yolks of three eggs,
one cupful sugar and two tablespoon

very light. Flavor with vanilla. These

The large number OF false alarms

have caused great deal of uneaSiness

number of similar false alarms which
have occurred must have the effect
of making ship masters chary OF rnsh-

CRITICIZED
Republican Senators Say VIII
son Holds Whip Over
Democratic Party

ASSOCIATED Press by Fed, Wireless
WASHINGTON, July l0.-President
Wilson and his antitrust program
were sharply criticized in the Senate
Yesterday by Senator Moses +. Clapp
OF Minnesota and Senator Charles f..
Townsend OF Michigan, prominent Re
publican leaders in the upper house.
Ii was during discussion on the
sundry civil bill that the opposition
developed. Senator Townsend, after
reviewing the work of the present
Democratic administration, stated
that much of the legislation now writ
ten in the law contains no process by
which 1t can be enforced. The en-
actment OF these measures, he stated,
is an Impeachment of the intelligence
and the independence of Congress.
He added that much of the national
legislation thus far enacted would
never have been carried out if the
members of Congress had followed the
dictates of their own judgment.
Continuing in his harangue against
the work OF the dominant party, he
charged President Wilson with being
q theorist, without constructive bust
ness experience Of his own.
Senator Clapp followed in an equally
strong speech of criticism, declaring
that the antitrust legislation offered
by President Wilson has been handed
to Congress "cut and dried. simply a
prearranged proposition submitted for
their approval"
