The hotter the weather the more difficult
II is to plan your meals.
Haven't you often faced the problem Of
figuring out what to have for dinner that would
coax the appetite of your family during these
hot days and wasn't it difficult to decide Just
what you'd have?

Doesn't the mere mention Of
cookies take you back to your
childhood's happiest days, when
you went TO visit Grandmother
in a small town or perhaps in the
country-for you knew that there
were many treats in store for
your Not the least of these were
the frequent trips to the pantry,
where you were permitted to
reach into that precious cookie
jar and help yourself to all the
good old-fashioned cookies you
could eat.
How few of us are really
''grown up" when we think Of
that cookie jar, and how we
would enjoy some fresh home-
made cookies todayl Living in
the city, we have somehow fallen
into the habit of ordering from
the delicatessen, but this is the
more expensive way, and we
never order enough to actually
have a jar of cookies.
Cookie making is not at all diff
ficult, for there are few ingredi-
ents, they can be stirred up while
the gas oven is heating, and
what satisfaction there is in
taking out the pans of fragrant,
crisp cookies.
Cookies are much more health
full than cake for little folks.
Being somewhat dry and crisp,
they require more mastication
than cake, consequently are more
easily digested.
Lard is an ideal shortening for
cookies; if you will be careful to
use a brand that is pure leaf
lard, such as you will find adver-
tised from time to time in the
pages Of this paper. The quality
of pure lard more than offsets
the somewhat higher cost over
ordinary lards, for it contains
less moisture, is richer. and OBJ
viously goes further in actual use
and consequently in the long run
is more economical.
Plain Cookies.
Two cups of sugar, one cup Of
leaf lard, one of sour cream or
milk, one teaspoon of soda, three
eggs and -four enough to make
rather a soft dough. Roll thin,
sift granulated sugar and roll in.
Cut and bake.
Vanilla Cookies.
Three cups of -four, one cup of
leaf lard, one cup of sugar, two
eggs, pinch of salt, one teaspoon
of soda, three tablespoons Of sour
milk or cream and dash of va

HIGH PLACE FOR OLD MAID
Surely Reward for Their self-saerIfIee
and pIslnterestedness Must Await
Them In Future State.

How many churches have been built
by the charity OF old maids; how
many schools supported; how many
homes cheered by their presence; how
much good seed sown by their hand,
how many prayers for others heard
from their lipsI Many a flower that
shall bloom loveliest in the land
where we all hope to be, will have
been nursed and tended by those who
had no physical loneliness that could
Yin our admiration here, and whose
tender, gentle heart may have been
wounded by some stray shaft of our
silly sarcasm. At a certain great
harvest home, where the reapers shall
be no longer men, and the sickles
shall flash in a brighter sunlight than
that of earth, many a humble one
from the ranks of old maidendom
shall have more right to Join in the
jubilant harvest hymn than those
whom, Diana-like, the whole world
worshiped. 1t is possibly a pity that
any women should have to pass
through life without the most exquis-
tie sensibilities Of woman's nature be-
ing developed in her. But 1t is a
good thing for many church, and a
happy thing for many a home, that
there have been old maids in their
midst-heroines in a high and noble
sense, in whose heart passion has
been lost in principle. who have been
welded by higher than priestly hand
to all that is good and true.-Boston

gathered before the brazilian legation

The Brazilian minister notified the
state departments that he would only
surrender d'Antain in case he was
overpowered by the mob. The an
tipathy to the attache is due to the
fact that he is the only American Of

OF his activity in relieving the dis

Washington, May 12.-While peace

NAL sittings of the South American
mediators to begin Monday on Cana
dian soil, the mediators and officials
OF the state department here today
were occupied with several serious
phases of the Mexican situation de-
handing mediate attention. Secre-
tary Bryan called at the Argentine
legation late in the day and confer
red with the South American ENJOYS
discussing the continued detention of
John r. Silliman, American vice con-
sui at Saltillo by Mexican federals.
the reported seizure of Lobo's Island
with its lighthouse by American tor
pedo boats, and the case of the five
South Americans under arrest at Vera
Cruz for firing upon United States
sailors and marines.
Mr.. Bryan insisted that the release
OF Silliman must be brought about at
once. When asked about the matter
later, he would not say what would
happen If the vice consul were kept
In prison but he was grayely emphat-
ic in announcing the governments
determination to have him freed.
AS to the Lobo's Island incident,
the secretary informed the mediators
that SO far the United States govern.
ment had received no official confirm
alton Of the taking of the island and
that in the absence OF confirmation
he could offer no formal explanation
OF the reported action OF the navy. In
administration circles it is contend

aggression against Huerta but mere.
ly necessary step to protect oil
shipping against possible disaster as
a result Of the closing of the light
