The medals awarded to the First Aid Team at the Panama-Pacifc Exposition in San Francisco. were given to the iudivi. dual winners and a speech on First Aid work was given by Jack Wilson. A number of hits were given to the team members by D. J. Kinzie who read what purported to be the min. utes of special meeting of the Safety Committee on board the steamer Northern Pacific These minutes brought forth Q great deal Of ap- plause and laughter and served to put the crowd in an exceptionally good humor. A song was sung by N. A. Snow Preceding the climax of the evening. Q boxing exhibition by Pat Scott and Walter Granger, both of Thane. an excellent exhibition of Roman Ring work was given by Pat Scott.
 The close Of the evenings entertain ment was the bout between Pat Scott and Walter Granger. Both of the boys have had a great deal of ring experience and are rated the best on the Pacific Coast at their weights. The bon. was of three rounds and there was something doing every min ute. Both men showed a willingness to mix things and also Illustrated long range fighting and foot work.

of any of the acts of Che war during the time of the conflict. No matter how clear the quality of these acts may be. an essential preamble to in- tervening then is that there should be no intervention now. Hence it be- comes necessary on the part of the Pope in bis prospective office as med iator to preserve perfect silence on the merits of the case on either side; hence too tho improbability that the Pope would cimmit himself to any kind of statement calculated to de- stroy or weaken the impression of his perfect neutrality. SO that press rue mors or reports on thsi subject ought rather to be disbelieved than believed.

How to Plank Fish.

To insure appetizing variety in serv-
ing fish, broiling and planking should
not be overlooked. The delicious
"planked shad." which can be enjoyed
at its best only during the short sea-
son OF fresh spring shad, may have
very desirable substitutes throughout
the year with a little care in selection
and preparation, as many other fish
may be ''planked" as well as the shad.
Planked fish may also be known as
baked fish, as it is cooked in the oven,
although a broilingi process similar to
pianking is often resorted to for small
fish
For the oven-broiling process the
cooking is accomplished in the oven Of
a gas stove. Instead of the regular
broiler, a creased tin is used; and the
fish are placed skin side down on the
tin and slipped under the flame of the
broiling oven. For the first rapid
cooking, until the fish are nicely
Drowned. the burners are turned on
full: then for the final simmering, or
ffsh tasty and thoroughly cooked, the
burners are turned low, allowing the
fish to cook for about half an hour,
with Drowned skin and tender f1akiness.
The piankfng of one or two large fish
gives practically the same results in
appetizing flavor as the broiling Of
several small fish on the tin In a broii-
ing oven. The planked fish is cooked
on creased plank, instead of a tin,
however, and baked in the oven of a
coal range or wood stove. When thor
oughy baked, and well Drowned the
fish (Which was seasoned with salt and
pepper before being placed on the
plank) is further seasoned and gar
nisheG before being sent to the table in
the favorite way-on the plank. First
a broad border of mashed potatoes is
placed all around the fish and Drowned
in the oven. The margin of the plank
still left exposed may be garnished
with parsley, lettuce and slices OF sour
pickles and beetS.
The idea is to cover the plank in an
appetizing manner, and then exposing
Gin the serving of the fish and its gar
nishes) the secret of its delicious favor
For 1t is undoubtedly true that planked
fish has q rich flavor that cannot be
secured by any other method of cook
ing.
Oven broiling and planking should be
frequent processes in FISH serving.

QUICK LUNCHEON FOR SEWING DAY.

this makes palatable menu: Aspara-

oven. first brushing over the tops with
little milk.
Menu: Stewed kidneys and rice, raw
tomatoes and chocolate eclairs and cof-
fee.
The main dish can be warmed up to
advantage, SO it can be made the day
before. Ask the butcher for q fresh
veal kidney, or six or eight fresh lamb
kidneys. Skin them and soak in ice
water and salt for ten minutes. Cut
the in half-inch pieces, or smaller If
liked. and put them on in a cup and a
half of water to stew. II the kidneys
are not from Well-nour1shed animal
less water will be required. as this alb
serbs the substance. Cook two slices
of onion with them and the salt and
pepper. letting them get perfectly ten
der, yet not mushy. Cook a cup of
rice in 4 quart of water and when half
done drain it through a colander. put 1t
in a saucepan. set it on the back of the
stove, and let it steam half an hour
more. On the sewing day rewarm the
kidneys in a little butter. and steam
the rice until the grains are separated; !;
serve them on the same dish.
Menu: Baked beans, Boston brown
bread and cocoa.

glass of milk thinned with vichy.
If the strawberries are free Of sand
do not wash them. as this dims the ex-
quiste taste. Hull them and serve
them on a plate with cone-shaped
mound Of powdered sugar beside each
serving. Have the cream separate. as
these delicate berries soon sour after
it is put on. The baker sells home
made bread. and yesterdays loaf is
more palatable than today's. It is also
cheaper The object of the vichy in
the rich milk is to make 1t more d.
gestib1e while improving the taste.
Milk served in this way and strawber-
ries and cream are also beautifying to

To Distribute Heat.

VTY HEN 10 heat at all comes from
wv some OF the registers of the not
air furnace on windy days. and also
ON davs when there seems to be no
circuiaticn of air, you can force the
heat up from the furnace by means of
an ordinary electric fan placed IN the
cold air box and blowing toward the
furnace. 1t will force q circulation of
air through the fiues and registers.
Thus the house will be heated com
fortably without increasing the coal
bill, as the cost of running an ELECTRIC
fan is about that of an eight-candle-
power light.

1t would be Just as much fun to tease
