MAKING THE MOST OF LAMB
Housekeeper VIII Find This Arrange
ment a Help to the Cutting Of
Her Bills.

Every housekeeper is on the look
out to save III these days OF high
cost of living, especially in meats.
Here is one way to save mutton or
lamb. If, on Saturday. a forequarter
OF mutton or lamb is purchased,
weighing from seven to ten pounds,
it should be divided as follows:
Shoulder, neck, breast, French chops,
bones and trimmings. The shoulder is
boned, pocket cut for filing, that
makes the roast; stuffed shoulder OF
lamb or mutton for Sunday dinner
and cut cold for Monday luncheon or
supper.
Then the neck is boiled with the
shoulder bone and trimmings, max
ing two quarts OF lamb broth, to be
used for soup for Mondays dinner.
The meat is trimmed from the neck
bones for lamb croquettes. meat salad
s7 loaf. The breast is stewed, ol
curried with rice. The choicest part
is left. that is, one dozen frenched
lamb chops.
OF course, you must be able to tell
your butcher just how you want II
cut and trimmed. The chops are
frenched. chine removed, but the
chops are not cut apart. That is left
for the housekeeper to do, cutting just
as needed. The trimmings from the
chops are boiled with the neck and
bones, strained, and when cold all
fat is removed and clarified for drip
pings.
From this forequarter you have the
following dishes, always for four per
sons:
Roast stuffed shoulder. hot for Sun
day dinner.
Roast stuffed shoulder, cold for
Monday, with soup 1.-TWO quarts for
soup stock).
Lamb croquettes or meat loaf fol
Tuesday
Stewed or curried lamb for Wednes'
day.
Lamb chops which can be kept for
Thursday.

Remove the shell from half CO.
coanut and shred or shave it with a
silver knife. Spread it on dishes in
the open door of an oven until it is
soft and elastic. Dessicated cocoanut
can be used instead, but the fresh sort
is better. Then boil cupful OF mo-
lasses and cupful of sugar, brown or
white, a teaspoonf,ll OF vinegar and a
tablespoonful OF butter When this is
cooked enough so that it is brittle
when dropped in cold water add the
warmed cocoanut and pour into but
tered dishes. Mark into squares when
it is thick but before it is cold.

Beaver Fur.

Beaver fur grows more and more
fashionable-and who would have
dreamed, a few months ago. Of wear,
ing beaver again? The soft. dainty
pelt is used for collarettes and sleeve
edgings on frocks OF pussy willow silk
and on tailored frocks of white cloth.
Sometimes a broad band Of beaver
borders ripple tunic, but Of course
this lavish trimming is exceedingly eX-
pensive. The older woman should
fight rather shy of beaver. however,

POLISH FOR COFFEE BOILER
By the Use of Oxalic Acid the UtensiI
May Be Kept in the Best OF
Condition.

A shining copper hot-water boiler
adds much to the appearance OF a
kitchen, as all housekeepers know.
The boiler may be kept in state of
brilliancy By the use of solution
of oxalic acid and water. Five cents
worth of the acid dissolved in a
quart of warm water will last
through many cleaning days.
Best results are obtained by apply
ing the solution to warm boiler.
After one application OF the solution
the boiler should be gone over with
a cloth wrung out in warm water
and then polished with a dry cloth.
The best part of the process is that
no elbow grease is required. In a
few minutes dull, dingy boiler be-
comes bright and shining with but
little effort
All copper articles not having a
lacquered surface may be cleaned
with this solution. and it also serves
as brass polish.
Keep in a safe place, as oxalic acid
is poison.

There is no promise Of return to

harmonize with the foundation color

plaid work it's way into the fashions,
not only for entire suits, but for skirts
worn with solid colored jackets, es-
pecially when these are short. The
combination would be ugly if the coat
was long.
The use of plaid for collar and cuffs
on a jacket OF solid color is often ad-
vocated. but it is not to be commend
