A Popular Spring Green.

Spinach is a favorite vegetable be
cause of it's cleapness and its delicate
favor It-nay be made the foundation
of many appetizing dishes and should
always be green and crisp when II
comes from the market. When broken
and wilted it must have been kept q
long time.
To wash it properly have two pans.
Put the spinach into one. pick over
and after shaking 1t about lift 1t into
the other pan. Wash the sediment Of
sand from the first pan. and it is ready
to receive the spinach from the second
pan Continue lifting back and forth
using plenty of cold water. until no
sediment shows.
Cook in just enough water to cover
and drain as soon as tender. Cooked
too long the pulp of the leaves is dis
solved and lost. leaving little but the
tough fiber This is why the peck Of
spinach sometimes comes to the table
So much reduced as to rouse the snspi
cion that 1t has been wasted. Chop
finety, season with salt and little
sweet. cream or with butter. Arrange
in il mound on a plate and garnish
with siftea yolk of hard boiled egg
and the white cut in rings.
All excellent soup or puree is made
from cold boiled spinach rubbed
through strai1er. diluted with hot
milk. thiekened with -four and seasoned
with butter. yait and pepper.

TRAVEL WITH A ROPE.

Be Sure You Have One Handy If You
Take Trip to Italy.
The following extracts from an ar
ticle in the Woman's Home Companion
explains why no one should travel in
Italy without rope:
Let me urge the tourist not to fail
to provide himself with Il stout rope
Il piece of clothesline is excellent
with which to tie up the trunk which
is to go into the Italian baggage car.
Ii you do not you may miss many
train connections. 1t is trick or the
canny Italian baggage master
"When you go to check or register
your trunk at the railway station this
crafty robber will try to stick his
fingers under the lock or under the
staples at the sides. Then he will
shrug his shoulders and tell you lsind
ly that he cannot accept the trunk for
registration. as it Is not fastened sc
curely enough and il the baggageman
stole any of your effects while en-
route the railroad would be rcspon-
sible. The trunk must be tied with .
rope and sealed. he will tell you
You have no time to go rope hunt
ing You have to buy IL rope from
him. He charges you what he thinks
he Gun make you pay. The price de
pends on how many minutes you still
have to catch your train Then he
clips on little leaden tag where the
rope is knotted. and your trunk Is Off
cially sealed 1t is very serious Of
Tense to break this seal.
Nov, then. il your trunk Is roped
when it reaches the hands of the boss
baggageman he is required at your re.
quest and unon payment of 2 cents
to afTix the official seal. SO. as last
word. don't forget the rope!"
